Scroll down to the root guide and begin.

cant get adb
thanks but that way is hard and i cant figure it out i cant really get adb down enough to truly trust my self to do it

Please don't use the term jail break unless you are referring to an actual iphone

my bad "Root" its been a while since i had to ask anything last question i posted was about my g1

This is about as easy as it can get, thought it really isn't the recommended method anymore. If that's still too hard for you, then you need to slow it down and start reading.

Please note that any means other than the wiki have resulted in many, many bricks; as long as you follow the wiki guide perfectly, double check your typing, etc. you'll be fine.

the www.threunlockr.com guide worked for me perfectly.

Easiest and reliable are not the same thing. The Wiki method is most reliable.

Can you say pretensious? C'mon dude really? You can jailbreak a PS3...that's not an iphone

The method posted by OriginalGabriel is the way to go. Trust me. I did it and was smooth as butter. I'm not sure why it has such a bad rep since I have heard of NO bricks from the easy root method. I think people see "Visionary" and get scared. It's perfectly safe for temprooting but a VERY bad idea for perm-root. The Gfree method is used for that... all you will be doing is running the scripts for Gfree instead of keying them in manually. No ADB, no hassle, much less room for error. Once you are rooted, get rid of Visionary and enjoy.

Naw, I agree with Pirateghost. Jargon exists for a reason. If one does not use the proper terminology, its hard to know what they are talking about. For instance, sometimes people ask "How do I unlock my phone?". Its impossible to know whether they are asking how to root, or how to unlock the SIM.

This +100
People coming over from the iPhone world may not know what all is going on here, so it is important to not confuse terminology. exactly like redpoint73 said, how do we know if they mean UNLOCK or ROOT or ROM?? do you know? if you do, then by all means help the guy out, i would prefer to not get the terminology muddled with inconsistencies.

Um, no ... Android is Linux/Unix based and "root" is the full access user to Linux/Unix; we're not trying to be special, we just are

I'm thinking about stealing a friend's car, better learn how to jailbreak that *****.
Sorry, the term "jailbreak" is most definitely for the iPhone, not any Android device. Don't be disrespectful now.

I doubt anyone is even going to acknowledge this thread cuz there are already so many concerning this very subject.
Short answer - Stock, unrooted, s-on EVO GB cannot be rooted yet.

Yes, the XDA app does have a search feature. When you are on the main forum page, (not in a thread) hit the "More" button near the top right of the screen.

OTA GB isn't rootable yet. If you want GB and a root, you'd need a new ROM. There are ROMs with Sense if you like the stock ROM.
I think that there is a version of the GB stock ROM that is rooted somewhere on XDA.

Big thanks to eoghan2t7!

Hi everyone!
I just want to give Eoghan Cunningham a.k.a eoghan2t7 a incredible thanks for his contribution to the HTC Wildfire S section of XDA-Developers. He is a role model. He shows that you can still take interest in a device even if you don't have the device. I wish that he taught me all he knows about Android so I can stop being such a idiot newbie and an annoying spammer & troll!!!
We wouldn't be as close as we are to getting S-OFF if it wasn't for him!
What would we do without him?!?!
I hope that all readers of this thanks him to!
GO EOGHAN!!!!!!

Yes thanks to him and many other people that have tried to unlock this phone. Unfortunately I won't be here when it does get cracked due to my new phone which will arrive in the coming days.

Nobody's gonna feed you the answers if you keep on asking and bumping without even providing basic information (device variant, Android version, etc.) and doing basic research.
Resources and tutorials are abundant, and either by using fastboot or a toolkit you should be able to root it in minutes. Just search before you ask.

The answer is no - even though it's a Nexus, it doesn't have to come with root.
