my quote was for m3xicanprid3. it skipped over the hboot driver webpage part. of all the files that unrevoked3 put on your computer, look for the hboot driver webpage file and open it. follow its instructions. i'll show you how to get to hboot screen.

after your done doing those insructions, you'll be left at the hboot screen w/ your phone plugged into the computer. at this point you can follow the rest of my instructions for him that start at "now that part is done..."

here's a brief write up of the steps.

(let me know if I forgot anything since I only rooted my phone once w/ this..and even that was accidentally)
uninstall and delete htc sync and htc drivers from your computer. i have windows 7 and deleted them using the search feature for 'htc'
put your phone in debugging (settings>applications>development)
http://unrevoked.com/recovery/
go there using your computer download the exe file.
run the exe which should install a 'reflash.exe' program and a hboot webpage and some other files (.dll)

open the htboot driver webpage and follow the instructions. (very important step...since computer needs this driver to recognize the phone)

after thats done you should be at the hboot white screen on your phone while its still connectd to your computer.
then click the "reflash.exe" on computer
now go to your phone. go to 'fastboot' and press power. then to 'reboot' and press power.
phone should reboot and start up.. reflash should then take over soon there after from your computer.
if not. just close 'reflash.exe', restart your phone fully, then relaunch reflash.exe

For those who cant get the program to see your phone, you have to be very careful to select the right driver for the phone when you plug it in, you have to choose let me find the driver, and direct it to the folder HBOOT that you downloaded from the web, never allow the computer to automatically find it for you when you are doing something of this nature, it will revert to something else most of the time and the correct driver will not be loaded for the reflash program to identify the EVO.

uninstall the driver u have and REBOOT YOUR PC. then install the android drivers provided on the unrevoked 3 website. youll have to install them 2x. once when u 1st plug up the phone to recognize the android adb and again on the hboot part to recognize the bootloader interface. theres a folder called "hboot driver_files" that has directions and pictures to do this properly. follow them. before u start open device manager to see things load up.

So from my understanding is that if I have a Stock 1.47 Non-Rooted EVO and use Unrevoked 3 I will have Full Root or will I only have partial Root (like what unrevoked.apk does.)?
