Another Root Project with a semi-working Froyo ROM

Looks like Toast over at XDA has been successful rooting an EVO and getting a Froyo ROM to run on it (some functions not working). He has not released the rootkit or custom ROM yet, but its an interesting read.

XDA Link - Post #29 has the screenshots and details of Froyo

Legendary.

Development takes place faster through the simple love & art of tinkering... combined with exceeding the boundaries of what billion dollar conglomerates readily provide...

... and all for free.

Imagine what such minds could do if given unlimited resources to fund their love!

Sounds like Toast will be releasing his Root very soon, he said tonight or tomorrow. He also said Froyo has alot of issues on the EVO. No camera, no 4G.
