Got it to work. I goggled the error message n someone else with that error was told the su.zip download he used was bad and have him a link to a different one , I used that one instead and worked perfect. Only difference was this other one said unsigned instead of signed. Is that bad ? Even got my wifi tether working. thanks for the help. What else can I do now ?

Congratulations! The suspense was killing mw.
Custom ROM time. If this is your first time I would start with something not to crazy such as http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-3d-rooting-roms-hacks/107464-rom-cleanrom-1-1-7-31-11-ad-block-native-wifi-usb-tether.html
It is very stable.

Need help! I couldn't get the drivers installed. Every time I would try to get them installed into my phone, nothing happens. Any alternatives?

The drivers get installed on your PC, not the phone.
Install these http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe on your PC

Downloaded the drivers, clicked on the application, nothing happens.

Re: [HOW-TO] ╰╮╰╮REVOLUTIONARY╰╮╰╮ Get S-OFF, Recovery and Perm-R

Never mind. They were installed already. It just didn't give me any notice.

Ok, Good Luck. Always happy to help.

Re: [HOW-TO] ╰╮╰╮REVOLUTIONARY╰╮╰╮ Get S-OFF, Recovery and Perm-R

Does it go through the set up for the drivers?

It doesn't. After I give it permission to install, nothing pops up or anything.

Sounds like they are installed. On my PC I had to install as administrator for every thing to work.

Next step...

Besides that, when I start the process and my phone starts to fast boot, A "Found New hardware" window pops up and it says "Windows needs to install drivers for your Android 1.0" The phone stays in Boot mode and doesn't do anything else.

For some reason the drivers aren't installing. You could install HTC sync then uninstall it.

Yes u need to use HTC sync to get them to install without hassle...then uninstall it again

Re: [HOW-TO] ╰╮╰╮REVOLUTIONARY╰╮╰╮ Get S-OFF, Recovery and Perm-R

My computer doesn't like being friendly with HTC Sync but I'll try anyway.

This is the easiest part.. it must be your computer. Are u running as an admin??
