Cool. Thanks... Is there any reason why 1.1.1 was preferred for this tutorial. Or was this tutorial just made before twrp 2 was confirmed???

Just because that is what I used when I was following a different tutorial, you can use any recovery you want in place of it.

I went with 1.1.1 anyway because it's fully stable whereas 2 is still in development.

I used 2 and I love it. It's a whole new ball game. The touch screen interface is a welcome change to the days of CMW with the volume up/down thing.

On the right hand side right under "select your device" is a button to begin the process. Once you start, you'll be asked to register then it will email you a conformation in which will be a link to go back to the site and paste your code. *as far as i can remember* I have heard of people having problems because of there browser choice. For some reason the htcdev site is unfriendly to some browsers. I'm thinking this might be where your problem is.
I used Chrome and had no problems.

You need to create an account with HTC. When you navigate their site after doing so, it gives you a walkthrough of everything you've already done. Then it asks for your token.

Can I change the recovery to ClockWorkMod Recovery ?

Yes, you can use any recovery in place of twrp.

Could anyone direct me to a way to unroot my evo? Because i'm having that terrible reboot problem, and I have to turn it in. Honestly I searched around google, and I don't feel like wasting $300 dollars because I was stupid and rooted my evo before noticing the issues. I would be in great gratitude if someone could help me.

Re-rooted my phone with Harmonia this weekend following these steps and it was a piece of cake.

But you might want to edit it your post and let people know they have to create an account on the stupid token unlock page. That threw me off a bit because I hate registering for stupid things , even though I have a spam email account it's still pretty annoying.

Well I did find a way to relock it, but even after I RUU'd it, it still says RELOCKED. If someone could help me I would greatly appreciate it.

When entering the token, I get this:

Error Code: Invalid Bootloader Token Length.
Error Reason: The submitted Token appears to be the wrong length and won't work.

Anyone else get that? I entered EXACTALLY the correct data

Try a different browser, a lot of browsers don't like that webpage.

I'm on Windows XP Home Edition 2002.... Any ideas?
