EVERYTHING EVO - Latest Rooting | NAND | Flashing Roms | Wipe - Page 198

Ok guys, I ran the latest RUU and it worked perfect, it flashed my Evo with the latest 3.30.651.2 stock rom. Took my phone to the store- had it checked and got it back with no problem. Now I want root back... when I tried using Unrevoked3 it gave me an error! I believe its because this latest rom hasn't been rooted yet- am I correct?
If so, what do I do know? I tried flashing an older RUU 3.29 version thinking then I could root with Unrevoked from that version, but NO GO! The RUU program gave me an error when it looked like it was going to start to flash and crapped out on me! I guess they smartened up to that trick!
What next guys?? Stuck without my ROOT and feel like my Evo is leashed and tied down. I need my ROOT! Lol. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Dan

this procedure is from June, will this work on the latest OTA 3.30xxx?

I tried following this procedure but when I got to loading the first PC36img.zip it failed saying something like "this version is older than the current one" which I was afraid of since I have the latest 3.30xxx stock rom loaded.
Could I take the rooted 3.30xxx .zip version, rename it PC36img.zip and load that? Maybe this will get me past the "old version" error and let me continue with the rest of the rooting process?
Calling on the PRO's out there... HELP!

Guru's out there...

I followed the guide to rooting but it doesn't seem to work on this latest stock rom -which I made the mistake of loading when I was prepping my Evo to take it in for repair. "Unrevoked3 one click to root" doesnt work either.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Dan

Unrevoked may not have been updated to include the new rom update yet. There is a thread in the EVo forum that tells you how to Root (the long way). That may work for you

I thought it might, but I tried using the files on that post but obviously they are older rom versions and got an error message saying something like "this version is older that the current one" and the process stopped. I wonder if I could just take the rooted .zip file of 3.30xxx version, re-name it PC36img.zip and substitute that in for the older rom's offered in the guide? Do you know if this will work? I thought it might since its a rooted version of the same rom.
Itching to try it, but afraid to brick my evo...

I don't think it's been cracked yet. I suggest you wait

I used unrevoked on replacement phone last night had 2.9 build. Unrevoked 3.21 does not root 3.30 yet.

There are custom rom's already out with this version such as OMJ and others, and there are stock rooted versions of it also -I downloaded it- so I think it has been cracked.
Now its just a matter of how I go from a stock "unrooted" version on my phone to a rooted version.
