All smartassness aside.. why wouldn't you just downgrade.. its stupid easy. I don't know anything about linux or coding with the exception of what I've read from this forum and, yes I was nervous about bricking, it was easy. Every step is laid out on how to downgrade pretty easy and I'm sure YouTube even has a video. And then if you are freaked out about it all.. you can always go back to stock and upgrade again.

I think the all the flaming is being directed at the moron who posted a thread in the dev section telling the developers that they should stop updating roms and find root for froyo cuz "half of the people here" are stuck. Gimme a break. Sorry, kind of off topic but I'm still venting.

This cracked me up. One of many reasons I keep my mouth shut since I'm not a developer.

NO.
Seriously, please search or look at the pinned threads next time, never mind that this is in the wrong section.
Seems to me some people need to get out and get themselves some instead of being upset over dopey questions.
If you find yourselfgetting p.o.ed and losing sleep over questions being asked about a phone? You're not right in da head. lol

Why would you need to vent or flame to a person who really will have no impact on telling devs what to do?
BTW... I love it when people post this question fresh for the first time. Half the time I think they are doing it to get a rise out of the people with no penises.
Maybe someone found root, they just want to see how people piss and wine about what we can't have yet, relaxe people! it's coming.

technically you're in the wrong section, but since i have a soft-spot for noobies, i'll help.
you need to look in the development section and(if you are already rooted) install one of the many 2.2 froyo roms. this is your best bet. good luck!

I wasn't worried it would affect the developers. But myself and the other mob of people felt the need to respond to a post that disrespectful to the developers. He made it sound like they're here to do what we ask. They do this for free and don't deserve pushy demanding crap like that. I overlook a lot of stupid posts but I couldn't let that one go.

I've got a question. I know there is still no way to root 2.2 so please don't freak out. My question is does anyone know if any developer has made any ground at all or does it just not seem possible?

Go watch the sticky. The Unrevoked team is posting there every once in while.

Okay so i been lurking around XDA for sometime now and i own an HTC Evo which i love, and would love more if i could root it with some cool Roms but every tutorial i have seen, I get stuck or it just gets too complicated or it's outdated and i just quit because i really don't want to brick or damage this phone. I don't know if it's me or the tutorial probably both or just me but too me this feels like rocket science so if anyone could help me root my phone i would very much appreciate it, I can Chat through Gmail or a different messenger.
Sorry if i posted in the wrong section but i figured since this is the development section mostly everyone in it must know how to root.
Check this thread out from android forums. http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all-things-root/194918-rooting-dummies-extras.html
I recommend using the unrevoked method if you do not have the new h-boot. Whatever method you end up using just make sure you read/follow the directions carefully.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
going to try out the method you posted since my Evo has 3.29 and not the new hboot
When i go to the S-off thread it says its not available to public yet. Can someone please tell me where to go to learn how to root the phone please?
I don't mean to sound critical but how hard have you looked? Just by using google I could probably get Atleast 5 different sources for that info, as I look everyday because mine came with gb.

I have only looked in "Droid Incredible 2 Android Development" on this site. I thought XDA was the place for this info.
You did say Froyo, right?

thanks a lot!
Hi all, I'm going to purchase a Droid Incredible Two soon and i want to unlock it for T-mobile. I have done my reading, and have come upon a site named htcimeiunlock.com, can anyone confirm that this site is legit, and has worked RECENTLY? if not, can someone provide me with a working link? Thanks!
dude there is plenty of threads here that explain how to do it and where to go to get the info. just search a little. none will be farther back than the front page of threads

yes i know and i have come upon some of these threads, but I would just like to see and be reassured that htcimeiunlock.com does work as of right now, instead of sorting through pages and pages of threads only to obtain answers that vary /:
For an exact post just go back to the general section and click on the "Noobs corner" thread. it will have a bunch of stuff you wont need, i can only assume, about flashing and ruu's and such but it will link you to the appropriate threads too root also. its the first or second thread in the section
i searched the thread with the world unlock and auctually only found one post, which wasn't very helpful /: anyone out there?

Go to the downgrade thread and follow those directions. You don't wanna unlock, but rather downgrade and s-off.

Hey xda,
I've been reading trough the S-off thread and I noticed they developed an exploit, i'm not sure if it actually works but. Is it useable on all WFS devices? Or do you guys still call it in developement?
Anyways, Can we safely use it?
Thanx,
ShadowAS1
(I thought like.. lets just open a new thread so I won't spam the dev thread)
Good idea. I used the goldcard method. One of my great accomplishments and proud of it.
Happilly rooted and flash like a madman

oops.. sorry my bad.. I was reading in general, and i'd had another tab open but that was Dev forum. Sorry, if some mod pelase could move this
Thanks
EDIT: Asked the mods to move the thread
Actually the exploit isnt effective in gaining S-OFF atm.....so it's a no-go for now
No, the exploit failed, we are still working. We are very close though, hopefully we will get it sometime this year. We are stuck. We either have to build a kernel, that does done cool stuff, or we have to build an mtdblock driver. It depends. Although it was mentioned that it might ultimately result in building a vanilla kernel, that should fix things up. Again, we are very close. Not long now.
