Yep.
i read you have to update the radio after installing the rom,what do i have to install after root to get it to reboot into recovery? and can the radio file be updated with phone booted up or in recovery mode before boot? thanks very much
flash the rom...then before rebooting flash the combo radio updates found here (all in recovery)...[ Radios ][ 12-17 ] All EVO Radio, WiMAX, PRI, NV & HBoot versions - xda-developers
Well as already mentioned in this thread - there is not one "best" ROM out there... they all are great in thier own right. You will have to just check each of them out and figure out which one you like the most. I have tried out "Frost", Myn 2.2 and MikFroyo - all were pretty good, but now I am considering going over to CM7 because they finally got the 4G working on it... we will see
Also - the one click root does not work on the newer EVO firmwares... I attempted it and I got stuck after the second reboot, I ended up having to do a manual recovery flash on my other EVO - Just use the new UnrEVOked3, it works for all versions of EVOs now and its a lot less painful
Hope you have read around as rooting the Evo isnt the same as vibrant/captivate. It takes more steps due to the need to unlock "nand". If you need help with it or anything, lots of helpful people are in this forum.
But if you already know that id say CM6/CM7 is the best, but if you need 4G and HDMI working then... Vealpak or MYN RLS5.
i downloaded that thanks, i thought id share this, i found digging around on xda, 1 click root&nand unlocker [Program] SimpleRoot .1 ---- 3 Click Root w/ nand unlock!! - xda-developers
