I went to the Root tutorial, which directed me to and xda thread [GUIDE] How to root Android 2.2 on the EVO 4G Outdated - xda-developersto root a 2.2 Sprint phone, but it doesn't work. That thread is outdated...but I tried it anyway.

I get to the step using unrEVOked and it can't root...it's says it's missing the misc.

Is there a way to root this phone?

Thanks to all who reply.

Try this method. Should work, that other one you tried is "Outdated"
