I'm new to Android and the idea of rooting, I just have a couple of questions. I'm pretty happy with the stock UI, I'd be interested in rooting mainly to uncap the fps and deleting some bloatware apps. What's the best way to do that without jacking my phone all to hell? I just got my evo this past Friday and really don't want to mess it up or lose my info. If you can put up a link or something I'd appreciate it.

I rooted with Unrevoke3 do a search it should be posted in the hack section it was easy and pretty painless for the most part.

From what I got, unrevoked keeps root, not just unrevoked forever.

Confirmed: This OTA will undo your root, but unrEVOked 3.21 will be able to restore it.

I was actually about to root today for the same reason. I may wait for the update then root so I can get rid of some of the stock apps.
