re: All Evo Froyo 2.2 "is it rooted yet" talk [solved]

Guys/gals.. I personally had no reason to root, just liked to have the option. I took the leaked OTA and was stuck on xx.3. It was fine, then *HTC released a full RUU rom update to OTA xx.6 (this is replacing the full rom, radio and all).. Now keep that in mind...

The new method of getting a rooted 2.2 is just that.. I puts the engineering bootloader on your phone, which allows you to put back the last stock full 2.1. Of which you can then apply 2.1 root method of your choice.

While there, you use the unrevoked-forever to unlock security on your phone. Then you just flash the full HTC/sprint 2.2* over that, mentioned on the original guide on XDA and another version of it posted here by Boo Boo. Showing you how to flash the recovery partition and the superuser application on your phone.

As someone mentioned before... Whalaah! you're on a rooted STOCK 2.2..

So you know where I am coming from; Never done it, never read on it, never bothered.. Read the guide, printed, followed it.. Piece of Cake. YMMV

-CC

NOTE TO SELF: wow was just reading through some of the problems and posts on the original XDA thread.. OMFG WTF BBQ WHAFFLECOPTERS? Umm, some people shouldn't be trying to root, what for, there is no use for it for them.. What do you mean by toggle airplane mode?!?! ok haha sorry L2R
