helo with rooting evo

Hello guys. I was wondering if someone.could please help me with rooting my wife's evo. I'm not familiar with the evo. I've been researching it the.past couple days. My question is in the wiki I see the universal auto root but that uses unrevoked. I have just been reading that unrevoked causes problems so I was wondering if there.is a better way than using the unrevoked. My wife's evo is hardware 4 hboot 2.10 radio-2.15.00.11.19 and on software.version 3.70. So does using unrevoked cause.problems? Thanks for.all your help.

Nope unrevoked is the best way I love it, press a button boom follow simple instructions and your rooted!

no issue with unrevoked for me have used on 2 evos

if you want to get adventurous, try the link in my sig.

Thank you guys alot. I haven't been keeping up on the evo like I wanted to with the.epic finally getting 2.2 about time. Damn you guys had it for a while and are getting honeycomb to boot up. Amazing work. So if I use unrevoked forever and an update comes out how does that work? I know you get to keep root but what steps do you take? Thanks alot guys for the help.
Dkdude36 that rooting way.looks fun. Its alot.more involved.

haha ya that rooting method is 'fun' its not as hard as it seems though. to update, just flash a rom with the new software. if you dont know how to do this, then you probably should have used the manual root to learn, but i will tell you anyways.

Oh ok I got ya. Think you so much.bro. I appreciate the.help and support. One.more question. I know.its.personal preference but what is your favorite rom/kernel?

my favorite is the newest cm7 nightly (whichever is newest at any given time ) plus savagezen's newest nosbc. savagezen needs like a day of conditioning so you might get bad results the first day. just stay on it and you will be impressed. i get 30+ hrs battery and high 1550's quadrant scores.

Awesome. You guys have alot of options to choose from. I guess I'll look at what you showed me and show the wife and let her find one. Her problem is she loves htc sense. So I might be limited on what I can pick. I really just want to get that bloatware off and overclock it for her to speed it up. So if I use the universal script it flashes Amon ra recovery right? I've never used that before. I have always used clockwork Mod before.

I've always used unrevoked and then when its done I go into recovery and flash amon RA. Its worked multiple times for me. There are a bunch of different sense Roms out there. Warm and mikfroyo are most popular though. Plus a ton of themes and overclocked kernals to go with them. I myself use cm7 but its all personal choice.

If I use the universal root doesn't that flash amon ra recovery for me? Or do I have to do that after.I complete the root?

yep xhausx's auto root does the whole thing. try it it works. and if he doesnt he responds fast and makes it work within the hour.

Will do thanks bro. It looks really easy. I would.love to try cm7 on the evo. I know my wife would hate it but oh well. Once again thank you. You have really helped me understand everything. I always thought the evo was hard to root cause of the nand lock. I guess you could say I was intimidated by it. Just looking around you all have a great community here. Ill definitely be hanging around here a little more.

I just rooted mine yesterday with unrevoked and loaded the latest cm nightly with the savagedzen kernel and the battery life is amazing compared to what I had with stock. That alone was worth rooting.

Yeah I try to help out as much as possible. Our community(epic) way to much flaming and ignorant people. No one wants to help anyone. There's only a handful that help. I will definitely hit you up if I need anything that I can't find the answer to. Your a good dude man.

I'm running mikfroyo 4.6 beta at the moment to tes along with net toast 4.3.2 havsmore sbc... you cant go wrong with mikfroyo 4.5 with net toast 4.3.1 havs...quick. give it a shot and see how you like it

The sbc and nosbc is just how it trickle charges right (nosbc doesn't trickle charge)? How is the battery life with the nosbc one?
Definitely want some better battery life but don't want to kill my battery either. I'm running the sbc one now.

i think nosbc is more than enough. i get 30 hrs with one. why push it if you can get through a day without charge?

LOL ye have lil faith my man it will be rooted only bummer is time

Why don't people go to their IRC channel (unrevokedtest on freenet) and ask them?
Swyped From The Hippest Phone Using XDA Premium

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

I doubt it.
Sprint discontinued the Moment almost a year ago and it's still aggressively being dev'd on SDX

so you think they will be able to root gingerbread

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.

(Q) epic 4g to evo 3d

Love the phone and all but from what i can tell is that rooting this phone u gonna end up wit a phone wit more problems etc...
Dont think samsung or sprint ever gonna fix this LOS problem everyone having so i believe this phone is gonna have very poor development, not to many people like myself want to root because of this issue people are having wit root.

First Sprint and Samsung have both stated it is an official problem. Which means 10/10 they will fix it or loose a lot of money.
Second dev don't care if you are scared to root because too many of us take these chances all the time.
Third why ask us if you should go back to the evo3d that's up to you... if you don't like the phone then change but if your not impatient and don't mind waiting on a fix, then sit and wait.

ET4G development

I'm not trying to be a jerk or one of those people who *****es and moans about stupid ****. I'm just wondering why we don't have an aosp kernel yet and why it just seems like development for this phone is lacking. I had an evo and it was so nice having so many options as far as roms and kernels and themes go. I just wonder if its ever going to happen? For this phone. And yes, I will be patient.

There is another tread just like this 6 spots down. Maybe post in that one?

Why didn't you ask in the other 6 threads about this same topic? Also why not make one yourself? All the *****ing you are doing maybe its time for you to Learn.

Musclehead. Hell yeah. .

And you dont have an evo killer. The evo is already dead, it's been out for over a year. Sprint stopped selling them.

I agree...lol

I think you'll be happy to know that Rootzwiki gave a CM dev an E4GT. Hopefully it won't be long!

So development is lacking because we haven't released what you want? Try making one yourself.. I have been trying to address current problems before moving on.. building an also kernel that continues to LoS is pretty pointless no? Maybe my development is lacking, but I have still released more actual improvements than most, and I don't even have the device..
By the way, EVO was a far more popular phone, and still took quite a while to get also running....

Your video just gives an error and wont play. Will this work with the 6.01.605.05 updated phones?
Ok got it to load but it does not show how you did it. Do you plan on sharing your secret with us?

I may share, my method still wipes your phone, so I just moved everything I needed to SD.
I'll write up a tutorial soon.

You sir are a disgrace to the android community. Seriously.... asking for money for a root method? Nobody give this guy your money. He is clearly a troll. I doubt he even has a method for rooting. He will probably take your money and run. Even if he does sell you a working method you would only be contributing to this kind of behaviour.
Optional donations? Absolutely!
A fee? GTFO!

I was thinking the same thing and was going to say something but I figured I was probably just feeding the troll, but I doubt he even has a method either.

No worries guys... I've figure out how to create an exact replica (taste, smell, and feel) of the female anatomy using three pieces of rye bread, a jar of peanut butter, and four safety pins. I'll have the cobstruction tutorial up tomorrow.
But seriously, this guy is full of it. He's probably a 13 year old kid living in his parent's house thinking he's funny.
Troll! Close this **** and ban the douche IMO.

Honestly, downgrading isn't really that hard anyway
Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So, we'll hunt him, because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian. A watchful protector. A Dark Knight.
