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

I've been waiting until everyone else has worked through the whole rooting business for froyo and as I search through the forums it occurred to me that there hasn't been any recent activity on the topic - seems like we should have a master thread or single area for it. I've still got the original OS on my evo and am curious about 2.2 - what are the various methods of rooting 2.2 after the allowing the OTA? The ony thing I have seen is unrevoked forever.... anything else out there?

I just did the unrevoked forever method the other day. It was fairly simple if you just follow the directions step by step

all 2.2 rooting methods require downgrade to 2.1 then rooting from there. most 'instructions' showing this method use 'unrevoked' to root.

i highly suggest replacing the instructions about 'unrevoked' with 'simpleroot' or any other FULL root method.

basically you just need to go from 2.2 to 2.1, then root using any 2.1 method you prefer.
