recently rooted and have been around the block with roms but came back to a sense gb build and am interested in building my own theme so i am looking for information and a starting point. wont let me do anything in the development section so here i am.
Have you tried a SEARCH? There are tons of threads on here to help you with that.
And please dont make your thread title HELP, make it relevant to your question.
fair enough thanx
A friend of mine just got his Evo yesterday and it came shipped with 2.3.3.
I've searched the forums on multiple sites and couldn't find an absolute answer, is it possible to root this, or downgrade to a rootable version?
no you cant root as of now and you cant downgrade either
sorry
and just to help if your new people become douche bags if you post something in the wrong section you will get more help if you post this in the Q and A section
Sadly no
They are working very hard (see Evo 3D and Sensation forums) so it shouldn't be that long but as of now nope. BTW watch out for the troll police and their smarmy (but usually hilarious) comments. Maybe move your thread if u don't wanna hear them.
cool rom! try going to the q&a im sure u know howz to readz!
WOW, AGAIN!!!?!??
MODS, clean up on thread 1160843...hahahahaha
Subscribed, cannot wait to flash !!!
