Thats where the "they say it wont work with 2.3.3 and not to ask about eta" is posted. I know its seems like time stands still without root, but trust me they are working on it. I sincerely doubt the day of the EVO is over.
I hope so I just decided to root my evo this week
Well since your saying gingerbread can't be rooted can I go back to froyo in any way to root and flash a gingerbread Rom to my phone

Yeah, development may slow down, but the Evo still has more development than most other devices. Despite developers moving to the 3D, there will still be development, and unless the bootloader is now encrypted (I know it has always been locked, I've heard that it's encrypted but I've also heard otherwise) we'll definitely see root for the new update. It may take some time, but it'll come.
If you know anyone with an Evo that doesn't care about rooting and hasn't installed the update, trade with them. You can activate the phones on your individual accounts, keep your number, and root right away.

Ok so 2.3 is called gingerbread??
Can someone tell me what is so good about 2.3 and what it has or does that 2.2 does not/does not do.
Also will the EVO ever get it..
http://www.cnet.com/8301-19736_1-20022517-251.html
As for whether or not the Evo will get it, that is not confirmed yet. Although I'm sure Sprint might push for it. They didn't even knock out the Epic 4G's Froyo completely yet (they are close I think).
If the Evo does get it, I hope that Sprint doesn't take their sweet ass time pushing it out.

Of course. But I meant that once the OTA is out its much easier for DEVs to use that as a base to punch out their ROMs. Leaked or open sourced versions are good practice to mess around with but usually pretty bugged. But working with an OTA as a base would be better. Hurry Sprint! Gingerbread go go! I wonder if the new ASOP will be better than Sense. lol

Usually the first thing the DEVs do is rip out all the Sprint and Samsung bloatware. I for one would like a week or two to play with any new widgets or apps added to see what I like or don't like THEN maybe slap on a custom ROM and add the features I liked also for the bugs to be worked out.
So the big question for us rooted phones is where can we find the update.zip asap tomorrow so we can flash it with CWM?
Thanks to all that make this phone great!

Yes. In regard to the information about the June 3rd Gingerbread update, it is my understanding that on June 3rd, 4th and 5th, users who want to update OTA must initiate the process and starting on June 6th, users will be prompted to update. I am referencing THIS article.

I would still think that a root method will be figured out. Man, I would hate to get a replacement with the OTA already installed, and be stuck with no way to root. I couldn't imagine having an Evo that wasn't rooted. It may not be super soon, but surely an exploit will be figured out.
Plenty of people will do it for a price im sure. They could always start a fund for a new root process. The evo will always be exploited i think

It may be legal to root, but the carriers do have an anti rooting clause in the terms and conditions of service. The carriers can kick us off their service for being rooted. Verizon now has tested a way to tell who is rooted and it works

And why should rooting be such a big deal anyway?
If the phone can boot into android, why should anyone lose their warranty over a modification that didn't harm the device?
Now, if the thing is bricked, and the owner rooted, then it's a different story.
That I can agree with
this is why i wanted to get the ota atleast once and then downgrade and reroot again..

March 2011: Verizon and another major carrier seem to be tracking rooted phones by seeing who has not accepted updates. They also seem to be doing this as of right now, meaning you could be on their list if you have a rooted device. New builds for phones will include a tracking code which if removed, could potentially leave your phone lifeless without data or voice access. The overall goal here is for carriers to lock down devices tighter than ever, but then provide 1-2 dev devices each year for those of us that wish to actually enjoy our phones

The first part of your statement makes it sound like we only do the things we do ( make roms, create mods, find exploits) for some sort of financial gain, which, for most of us, is untrue. While a donation is never unappreciated, not receiving a donation certainly isn't going to keep us from releasing the things we are passionate about.

lol my thoughts exactly.
To be honest though to the OP, if she would come on the forums she would be able to learn real easy with step by step instructions on each ROM she wants to flash.
although if she just wants ROOT then that is fine aswell, but to just have S-OFF isnt much until you install SuperUser and BusyBox. you also want to get Titanium Backup so you can get rid of the bloatware either by freezing it or uninstalling it
