I see the guide by thefredelement ... is there also a YouTube video that is recommended that fits my phone's profile?
I'm not sure if there's a youtube for that specific root method, the screen shot guide I made is good though, and if you have a problem you can ask right in that thread or search it and read through some problems people already had, most of it is just making sure you're on point step by step and you'll be fine.
I am rooted, running a sense Rom, is there anything I need to watch out for if I go to a non sense Rom?
Say I dont like the non sense Rom can I just go to recovery and recover my sense Rom?
I'm on warm2.2

The best tool you can use to help with rom switching is Rom Manager, when switching between different ROMs it's always a good idea to:
a) make a nandroid backup (you can name them using rom manager)
b) use titanium backup to backup your apps & app data for use on your new rom
c) always make sure to wipe when switching roms, you don't always need to wipe when just re-flashing a new version of the same rom to save all your stuff but still back things up in case there are any issues
d) If you switch to CyanogenMod make sure to check "Google Apps"
how do I hack my evo 4g and remove all the preset apps that I never use
can anyone help please
For just this purpose you can install z4root, select temporary root, install Titanium Backup and freeze the stock apps
i'm fairly new to rooting, i've had a droid, droid 2, and now an eVo. Last night i rooted the droid 2 (we're not on verizon anymore and i wanted to test out the rooting process to see if i could do it on a phone i didn't actually need). It went great and i now have a rooted droid 2. i would like to try it on my eVo, but i don't have it in my budget to replace the phone if it bricks. do you guys know what the chance of me bricking my phone is? if i do root, how easy is it to change back, should i have to return it to the store for repairs? i'm running mac osx 10.6.6 and was planning on using this video (
YouTube - How to root the HTC Evo 4G in 3 minutes without wiping data)
any tips? any suggestions?
thanks guys
Please check the link in my signature and the first post in this thread, it's very important to find out all your software and hardware versions before choosing a root method.
