I can't really say it any better then the guy above me just did. I hope for your sake you start gettin a lil more enthusiatic for the duration of your stay here at XDA otherwise I can't really see you advancing much further... Best of luck.
Try this thread.

i am sorry guys I looked and looked I didnt see anything. I will look again.
Calm down If you spent as much time helping rather then criticizing you might have a much fuller life
what does that even mean
If you would have actually searched instead of just saying you did, you would see there is multiple threads on the same page as this thread you posted covering the information you seek, I'm just trying to save you from getting flamed from people a lot worse then me here but do what you want...
Go to the htc evo question and answer section and one of the thread titles is how to unroot to stock. There it will help you find the information your looking for. Just be careful where you post. Most won't be as nice as others just because we have rules that we follow. Good luck

I agree..... +1
zzz... being in the many forums I have been, people saying to search without even giving an answer are not adding to the forum at all.
Anyway, I unrooted before I did the OTA update... basically, you have to download the latest OTA RUU file.
The RUU file is an executible.
You run the RUU file while your phone is plugged in.
And it should restore everything to factory settings with the OTA update.
Here's a list of RUU's.
http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/
Obviously, choose the last one, as it is the latest.
Im definetly not one to flame usually, you guys can stop crying now. Im just stating the obvious... if its something hard to find, i will always post a link... you can check my other posts but this is blatantly obvious so its well deserved. A little constructive criticism is how everybody learns, its most likely how you guys even learned.

MrDSL beat me to it...LOL!!!
Posting a suggestion like that is not going to accomplish your goal (organizing a root effort) or help get 2.2 rooted any sooner.
You became the owner of this thread when you hit the "post new thread" button, you have the OP to do with as you wish. This thread isn't going to just start filling with reports of what people have tried. If you want this thread to serve as a "status-of 2.2" thread then find out what people have tried, try some methods yourself. Post the results of your searching and rooting attempts.
If this thread does become a place where people can come and see the current status of the rooting effort it will be because you keep the OP current.
I'm rooted, and I don't know enough to help blaze this trail. I know what a few people have tried and I know what methods some think are promising but I would like to see a breakdown, similar to THIS THREAD.. well, I WAS gonna link a 2.1 Root-Effort thread that was in the Hero forum before Regaw released his guide. I tried a half dozen searches (my search-fu is not weak) and all I found were a few rooting guides and a BILLION "ROOT???" threads...
Anyway, the guy had all of the methods that he had tried and others had submitted listed in detail along with the outcome of each attempt.
Also, I imagine a list like this would help cut down on the redundant threads.
The sticky thread is already hosting a discussion about this. Some of the Unrevoked team is even there.
If someone wants to help me pay for one (haha) I'll get in on it!

i just set my phone back to factory and updated it cuz i was goin to get the 3d today but my wife wants to use the upgrade cuz she hates her phone (epic) so now i want to root my phone back to the kingdom port is there a way to do this
No way to root the update unless you're still s-off. Why don't you get the 3d & give her your phone, then sell the Epic?

Yes there is!! Click your heels together three times and say to yourself...'theres nothing like a rooted evo...theres nothing like a rooted evo..theres nothing like a rooted evo...'.
Or, do a search...or even just glance at the Evo Q&A page for 12 seconds and you will see that this has been asked and answered endless times already.

I would just like to know they are working on it. TeamWIN for the 3V03D at least update us that they are doing something.
There is nothing from the Dev's for the Supersonic. So, maybe that's why we keep asking!
Internet Police, Search! LMFAO! Get a life.
been monitoring the irc channels for 2 days now, read yesterday that teamwin is working on it, and hboot got pwnd , they are working on a stable release...how true this is i cannot say , but this is the chatter ive seen on the channel, lets hope its coming soon , have patience all , these guys rock but they have lives also and they do this for free, so be mindful of this too

Well said... Hey people if you are still asking these questions then you have no clue how the Evo fourms work or for that matter xda. I have seen some other forums and this place gives you clear and well informed information. Great stickys and too me clear cut headers to let you know what roms have, last updates 4g no 4g as well as a host of other info. Also great OP info that outlines what to do, if any bugs, etc...
If you just come here and type a question especially one that is clearly all over these forums my suggestion to you is since you are waiting for your phone to achieve a root method why don't you just start to read up and learn about rooting flashing roms and kernels. You do this so hopefully you can help the community instead of filling the pages with repetitive questions and rants about why others who do this for free can't fulfill your needs fast enough.
Just My Thoughts....

That is actually not true, no one heard anything from them until they found a promising root method for the Evo 3D.
And it is the same for the Evo, mainly because their is no point in telling everyone something like, "tried that.....that didn't work, tried this......this didn't work either". So I seriously doubt you will hear anything from anyone until someone finds an exploit that works.

Also keep in mind that these are security exploits. They can't keep them hidden forever, as HTC can basically find out what it is once it's released. But there's no point in publicizing "Hey, we found a huge hole at line 2337 of Rosie.c!!!" and make it easy for HTC to get a head start on patching it.
I want to know if any of the Epic developers will consider making a sense 3.0 rom if the opensense sdk provides that possibility. I really don't want an EVO, but I have been in love with sense since I first saw it. Even though people wont admit it this phone is way better, it has stronger glass and is unbrickable since we have Odin. I'm probably not the only one that wants this too.
You should use search next time, it's only been discussed half a dozen times.
There is currently a developer working on it (the same one who is porting MIUI so it's not his only project) but there is a lot of work to be done so don't expect it to be any time soon.

This isn't directed at you xplus93. But, people must realize that there is no way other people can know that you've searched or not unless you state it. Then again, people shouldn't get so hurt when told they did something wrong. People like me and 063_xobx, are only trying to get the point across to make a better community.

it just annoys me that the first response to almost every thread I see is that somebody should have searched. I'm glad that somebody is working on this, and would you be able to provide some links to more information about it. This might even get me into actual development if it has a possibility of working and if I can get an evo to use while my epic is being used for development

Second "attempt" won't get anywhere, I'm not saying it to be harsh, but to be realistic, the OP doesn't have the necessary skills. It's not the same as "copy-paste" developing, it requires serious skills to write drivers for an entire rom.

Just providing the requested informations. Maybe together, they'll get some support, and get the "Sense Train" chugging. You know, it makes me wonder, has acs been trying to do this, and not made it public? They've done it before.
So I just kind of got back into this rooting thing, Ive been so busy with a new kid the last few years I kind of left the scene and am pretty far behind.
anywho, I had a lot of work done jailbreaking 2.2 a long time ago and was thinking of throwing my hat into the 2.3.3 JB race, but I have a question. What is preventing the JB this time? Is it something I shouldn't even bother trying only being 1 person working on it? Am I basically going to have to throw everything I know about jailbreaking out and start new?
Any comments are appreciated.
This will most likely elicit "wtf n00bzorz, u no how 2 uzorz searchs?" types of responses. Not that i'm giving you one, just be prepared.

jailbreaking.
lolwut?
Well, I just got in the boat of "new EVO's that come with an update from Sprint and can't be rooted". The problem lies in the bootloader not being able to be rooted and can't downgrade the updgrade neither. Supposedly Unlocker team is working at the solution as we speak but no answers yet. There are several theories running around but no solution yet.

Sorry, rooting, Ive been deep into the ipad2 jailbreak for quite some time now.
Call me skeptical since you have to ask this question.
Anyway, in short, HTC and/or Google patched all the currently known exploits, including gingerbreak. Thus no temp root, no root, no S-OFF.
No hboot downgrade, no tampering with the signed .zip. Plenty of discussion on this elsewhere.

there was an exploit with the nova game mentioned by lithid, he later updated that he is trying to write C code to use the exploit, but his experience with C is limited, dont think we have heard anything else..
alpharevx team said their exploit would work across all bootloaders with some tweaking , i have not heard anythinng from them either
