At least I'm rooted, I was able to install the adfree program which requires a rooted EVO. I feel like I'm letting you down winmonewbie, with all the help you have been giving me tonight/morning. Thanks..!!
OK, in the light of a new day I think I see you issue. You need to run the batch file WHILE you are at the the screen with the /i\.
So boot into Recovery and while you screen is "stuck", run that file.

I'm getting the same "Main Version is older! Update Fail!" error as this guy except mine is happening at step 1E. I have all 5 files on sdcard, checked the files sizes against the pics and youtube vid and they match to the T. Followed the few steps to get me to this point to the T and still this dumbass error.

Ideas? Thanx!!
What is your software version?
Menu>Settings>About Phone>Software Information
If your software # is 1.47xxxxxxx then you are starting in the wrong spot.
You need to start with
****ROOTING AFTER OTA 1.47.651.1 (Full Root)****
