I saw this in another thread and I thought it was a neat idea.
Just add your own funny conclusion to "You know you're rooted when"!
Have fun!
Example: You know you're rooted when you spend more time on the XDA forums than with your family.
You know you're rooted when you flash every ROM available for the Epic touch!
Special thanks to kennysvgp08 for the idea
This guy below me has the best one so far vvv
You know you're rooted....
when you miss a call from friends or family, and they ask why....
You tell them that you must have been "in recovery", and don't understand the strange looks they give you:
"Mom, I DON'T have a drug problem!"
You know your rooted when you flash something in cwm at work and soft brick so you lite to your boss so you can leave early to access Odin at home

You know you're rooted when you busted the f5 key on both of your keyboards over the last month of ics leaks.

You know your rooted when you were younger and people asked you what you wanted to be when you grew up, you answered a Recognized Developer.
You know you're rooted when... you never have to clear out your sms inbox because you just do it when you flash a new rom.
You know you're rooted when:
- you forget what the "Sprint Zone" notification bar icon looks like.
- you have more memory taken up by flashable ROMs on your SD card than music.
- your wife won't let you touch her phone because of how often yours is soft-bricked.

So I just got my Evo, and out the box it already had the Anti-Root OTA Update installed... well she took hers to sprint today since she couldnt get Netflix to work, and they told her there was an update availible to fix that. so she downloaded it on hers and now netflix wirks great for her.
So she comes home, and grabs mine and updates it for me... trying to prove to me that she knows how to do some things... Now my software number is 4.24.651.1... yay... wonder when THIS one is gonna be cracked so i can finally root this thing!
sorry dude the root method isnt availabile yet but devs and unrevoked are workin on it i think they will have root method out by october bro
Leave her...
I believe you can flash the ruu back to 2.2 and root.

You can't be serious?!? Within 6 days people can find a way to root the EVO 3D, but the Gingerbread update that's been out for a month, can't be cracked?
I'm in no situation to get upset, I guess. I don't know a thing about how to do it, but I had to replace my rooted phone due to a cracked casing, and I just received the new one 2 days ago.
I'm missing all the goods....like Synergy.
when they think they know it all, let them do the hard work

Originally the Evo was rooted before it actually launched (thanks toast!). HTC has gotten better locking the Evo down since then.
Does this give you free access to her purse now? LOL
nm....Frustrated with Spint
Tell her that you have made a choice to leave her for your phone. and you want to have great sex with the HDMI port on your phone. lmao!!!!! Cause we all know it is that small since you can't tell her NOT to touch your phone. lol! but then again, girls will be girls. they'll do what they want anyway because they actually think they know what they are doing because some idiot at sprint told her that. lmao. anyway. hahahhahahahahaha. The only reason I root is to use the SO CALL FREAKING 10 DOLLARS a month they are stealing from us. Use as much internet as I can. hahahahahaha
Every one of you who would even joke about your wife the way you are should be ashamed of yourself. As for the OP, you should be kicked hard in the junk for such a disrespectful thread title.
this entire thread is making me laugh my ass off. hahahahhaa

sorry if this is a lame question but a friend of mine asked me to root his evo 4g with the 2.3.3 ota software update and i was wondering if unrevoked would work for it. thanks a bunch
Just rooted mine last night, don't no where there link is, you have to search
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
ok cool. but did you use unrevoked?
I'm pretty sure this guy is trolling you. I have an evo on 2.3.3 that I got last week, and I'm patiently waiting to root. When a method comes out this forum is gonna light up with posts about it, you won't have to search for it to hard.
Heres to hoping we get root soon!
You CANNOT root 2.3 yet!
There has been at LEAST 100 threads about this is the last month. I have personally responded to 3 threads in the past day alone. Please do a search next time, it would literally have taken you 10 seconds.
You aren't a friend for allowing him to take the update. And if you know how to root then u should know there is no root for 2.3 ota... In fact there will never be again... If the amount of new devices that have dropped or will in the 3rd and 4th quarter including iPhone 5// like really if u want root... Go buy a rooted device....
Let the developer move on to bigger things.. and learn on your own to gain root access just like they did.... No one wants to take the time out to learn... They expect these guys to do it all...
I say no more root for evo... why.. so u can gain root then complain when you can install them rom or kernel right...nah.... Make em like them guys on Craigslist....

what about sbf back to 2.2?
I rooted my Orig Droid running 2.3.3 with unrevoked!!!
Someone on TeamWin did root 2.3.3, but "it pushed the phone to the max" and he is not releasing it, for fear of bricking phones.

Based on that type of logic, this place would not exist. If every one had to learn how to root on their own I don't think there would be too many rooted devices out there. I agree about the complaining but that doesn't apply to everyone. And if people took the time out to successfully port 2.3.3 with sense 2.1 for the hero, I have to believe someone / some group will successfully root the Evo again.
Can someone please explain this to me on how a CRICKET phone got a working ICS update and we don't. Come on now Huawei. This is a damn shame. The Galaxy Nexus is not released here in the states and some rinky dink phone got ICS. WTF! And now I see why Apple is kicking ass.

Take it easy...
Oh for christ sakes, you really felt the need to create a new thread for this? Your a god damn troll, you know that? There are developers actively working on CM7 which will eventually lead to CM9 and ICS on this phone. If you are impatient, get another phone. Read the forum rules and do some searching and quit your god damn whining.
You little 10 year olds and your demands for everything are getting on my last effin' nerve on this board. GTFO!
For one it's a demo build so it's not complete. Sure they have one but in all honesty what did they have to leave out or what's not working without having major issues. As it says it's a DEMO which we have phones already in the xda community that have this also already. Not a big deal.
Dude chill even when we do get ics a ton of apps are not even updated for it yet. I rather have all my apps working and no Los.

Coming from a Sprint Epic 4G I am used to waiting almost a year after official release to get an update.
It would allow us to reply to all the "how do I flash a rom?," "which is the best rom?," "should i buy a gnex?," "what is the battery life like on the gnex?," threads much, much faster.
This would be great for efficiency. Rather than taking the time to copy/paste the URL of a web-hosted image(possibly uploading one or google image searching one first), or upload an image from our own hard drive as an attachment, we could simply enter in a few keystrokes and have our reply finished in seconds.
