I'm rooted and I have that exact version. I used unrevoked 3 to root my EVO.

I have the same evo got it like a week ago I used the hboot s-off guide under android development but only problem I had with that program was that I couldnt access recovery so then I used unrevoked to flash clockworkmod revovery do this at your own rish though I messed my first evo up by just using unrevoked camera wouldnt work im 14 I think you will be able to figure out how to use the hboot guide but when you flash a rom make sure its a 3.30.651.3 other wise you camera wont work im using OmegeEvo v1.1 by racism

Where do u get unrevoked 3 at? Do i get that from the market and will it brick my phone? Can i use any rin with it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

do not use unrevoked it will permanently curropt your radio. unrevokied 3 is now out of date, thanks to htc's latest security update. use an alternative method if you happen to have a mac, i have a very nice 2 or 3 command root kit for you... testers wanted

So u cant use unrevoked 3? I do not have a mac i have a pc. I really want root mine. Im coming from the hero

I did not have any problems rooting my EVO using Unrevoked3. I followed the simple instructions and the process was painless. Before getting my EVO, I rooted my Droid Incredible using Unrevoked3. As for it being outdated as stated by someone else, I'm unaware of it. Check out the second link above and read for yourself. Happy Thanksgiving.

unrevoked does not work on any 3.30 evo software because of the new hboot security. it will not gain root, just corrupt the radio.

Man i dont think i can root it via ADB. never done it before. There is no one click root method?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

i am trying to work out the bugs in a 3-command method... adb is not that hard to setup and use.

If u can do that 3 way command that would be easier.

I know its not that hard to use but typing all the commands is what ****s me over

No issues with 4G for me and I used unrevoked about 3 weeks ago, very painless

I had rooted with unrevoked 3 amd lost my 4g. Had to unroot my phone to take to sprint for other issues. I used RUU to unroot along with the s-on file. Will I be able to reroot using unrevoked 3 again??
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I've used Unrevoked on 5 different EVOs, one of which I used it multiple times. Out of those 5 EVOs, 5 were rooted successfully and all 5 still have 4G.

Thanks ill give it a try again.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I've rooted two with unrevoked. All work just fine. Its easiest way possible

Unrevoked does NOT touch your wimax keys.

Thanks everyone, I had read that using RUU to unroot might prevent you being able to root again thats why I asked.
If I have any files on my sd card from unrooting like unrevoked s-on do I need to remove them?

I used this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787304
This is my first android device and it was a very easy process. Just read the instructions carefully. Good luck!!

Do I have to remove any files I already have of unrevoked?

Just use what I posted above, its the easiest method to root 2.2. All you need to do is restart to clear the temp root.

Unrevoked will install clockwork, then you can install amon RA. Lets not jump the gun you still need root lol.

the way your rooting right now is the way i rooted my phone! i think i ran into that exact same problem back then too....i think i pulled my battery and started over....i cant remember...its been like 7-8 months.
also...what you can do...is run the RUU for 2.2 to wipe your phone (also do a factory reset beforehand too and back up your sd card on your comp) and then start over.
or try a different way...try unrevoked or xHausx's method: [ROOT] ~~~ HTC EVO - Auto Root ~~~ v2.5 (4/25/11) - xda-developers
after you got your evo rooted....flash Amon_RA recovery ([Recovery] [09-Feb-2011] RA-supersonic-v2.3 - xda-developers)
hopefully this helps ya out!

Is there anyway possible to root my og evo without computer? My usb port is broke :l

I think if you downgrade hboot and firmware far enough you could use unrevoked. I think captain Throwback has downgrade PC36imgs available for that. He's got links in pretty much all the root tutorials here in the general forum.

You can always get a sd card reader and put any necessary files on it. However any method of unloicking or rooting does require PC access. Google put a stop to rooting apps quite a while back.
Koush, author of CWM, was working on a CM app store that would be able to host all of these kinds of apps... so we just need to be patient and those days will return.
