Trying to root my Inc for the first time, and the path to download files from Unrevoked seems to be down?
I was able to find a mirror site that had the reflash_package from Unrevoked, but can't find the unrEVOked modified USB driver elsewhere. Does anyone have another link to it or can send me that file please?
Greatly appreciated, thank you.
I am able to get to it with my phone just now...

I'm getting 404 errors if I click Unrevoked 3 OR if I follow the Unrevoked forever link to the wiki and attempt to download.
Sorry, I don't know of any other root methods. Hopefully, this is a temporary ordeal.

Does anyone know of a simple easy easy to root my evo that will also allow me to unroot with just one click? Im only interested in rooting for wifi tether. I dont know anything about roms or kernals yet. Ive been looking into z4root and simple root and easy root. Which is good for me?

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??

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.

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?

download the latest RUU from HTC.com, boot into bootloader/ fastboot... then plug your EVO into your computer and your should then say "fast boot usb".. then run the RUU
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You aren't supposed to rename it. Re-download it. Connect your phone into fastboot, connect to pc, run RUU exe.
K ima get it from xda

are you getting error 170 messages? install HTC sync so the drivers are there.
So.... Let me guess what happened you were running a custom rom then you formatted your SD card right?

IF you are trying the PC36IMG, you need to make sure to just rename the zip file to "PC36IMG". Do not add the ".zip" when you rename it, if you do your phone is not going to see the file because it is going to see it as PC36IMG.zip.zip. The format of the file is already a zip so adding the ".zip" is what is causing your problems. Hope this helps, its a common mistake I can remember when I first got into rooting and stuff I encountered the same thing.

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!
