Hey guys I'm new to the HTC World and I just need to know how to root it, I have a samsung captivate glide I rooted that but I know this is different, I currently right now thinking of getting Jellybean on My EVO, so could you tell me what's the best one on here? And point out any Threads that explain rooting the EVO? Thanks You.

You can start your search for info HERE.
And when you are done reading that you can try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473373 . Which is currently the thread right below this one. There's probably literally hundreds of threads here on rooting. You have to read...especially the stickies.

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i could root it with some cool Roms but every tutorial i have seen, I get stuck or it just gets too complicated or it's outdated and i just quit because i really don't want to brick or damage this phone.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.

going to try out the method you posted since my Evo has 3.29 and not the new hboot
I'm thinking of rooting my EVO but I don't know how to and I don't know how to unroot if I had too. I'm hoping to get some good info and maybe some links..

Read thru the Dev sec there are threads on how to unroot

All the info is here. You are in the right place. Check out the dev section and you will find exactly what you are looking for. I started right where you are at and came here, but instead of asking people to show me the links, I read and read and read every post in the dev section that had to do with rooting and unrooting. Now both are very easy for me. I suggest that you go to the dev section and look for [ROOT] at the beginning of the thread title and read them all. That's what everyone else did and I seriously doubt someone is going to give you all the links to root your EVO.
Why would you want to unroot your EVO? I've never wanted to go back.

check the stickies at the top of each subforum. You will find PLENTY of info and how-to's. Also, it really helps to just spend a few hours on here browsing around, you will be surprised at what you will learn.
Pretty much what everyone has already said, but I'd also like to mention the IRC channels. There's a sticky post for that. The guys in the chat rooms have been friendly and helpful in my adventures as an EVO newbie.
Hey there, I'm still relatively new to the whole android scene. I understand the basics for most other phones but when it comes to HTC, I get lost. I just purchased a G2 and I've heard there are some pretty good stuff available for it as long as you do it right. So, I guess my question is, how do I do it right? I know there's something about unlocking your bootloader and getting s-off but thats about it. If it's already been posted on here, sorry.
Thanks!

I've done a quick google search and I haven't found a root for it... All I found were ROMs and etc. I am very new to rooting phones, and the last time I tried to root my Note 1, I bricked it and I had to spend 3 hours unbricking it. Does there happen to be a guide on this forum or YouTube? Can you use any roots for 4.3?
EDIT: This is for the SGH I747, not the I717. I am wrong in the title. I thought my phone was the I717, but it's not.
