Trying out the REVOLUTIONARY

[noeval3222]

I want to try the revolutionary, but i'm not sure what is an HBOOT. Can anyone let me know how I find my HBoot on my HTC Evo 4G? Please and thank you :]

Definition for hhoot: is loaded immediately when your phone is switched on, and it's mainly responsible for checking and initializing the hardware and starting the phone's software. It can also he used for flashing official software releases, as well as a few other things. HBoot can be compared to the BIOS on a computer.

You either have 2.15.0001 or 2.16.0001 I am almost willing to bet you have the 2.16 variety. Are you wanting to too root? I'm guessing so, ask anything I'll help if I can, by the way when you run the revolutionary software with your phone plugged in it shows your device info including hboot!

To find it on your own turn off fastboot, power off, hold volume down + power until the white screen comes on. That is what you're looking for.

For others search the forums. There has been many good roms tossed around.

By the way, congrats on rooting your phone! There is just about an unlimited amount you can now do on your phone.
