From the Wiki:
unrevoked3 is a tool to flash a custom recovery image to your Android phone. A custom recovery image allows you to perform advanced tasks on the system partition, such as flashing custom ROMs and taking a full backup of your phone (a ?nandroid? backup). We recommend installing the custom recovery image for all users who want rooted phones.
It can be obtained from unrevoked3 recovery reflash tool, v3.2.
At this time, unrevoked3 works on all versions of the supported phones, thanks to the exploit discovered by Sebastian Krahmer.
Windows users, please download and install these HBOOT drivers.
Supported Devices
unrevoked3 currently supports the following Android phones:
■Sprint EVO 4G (HTC Supersonic)
■Droid Incredible (HTC Incredible)
■HTC Desire GSM
■HTC Desire CDMA (HTC BravoC)
■HTC Aria
■Droid Eris (HTC DesireC)
■HTC Wildfire (HTC Buzz)
unrevoked3 will permanently unlock NAND write protection by default on the following phones:
■Sprint EVO 4G
■Droid Incredible (HTC Incredible)
■HTC Desire CDMA (HTC BravoC)
We have noticed that the core mechanisms behind unrevoked3 may apply to other rooted current-generation HTC phones running Android 2.2. At this time, the tool does not support other phones; if you have an unsupported phone of that description, please get in contact with us.
Changelog
unrevoked3 has been through the following versions:
■v3.2:
■Added support for Froyo builds on all supported devices (thanks to Sebastian Krahmer)
■Added support for the CDMA Desire
■Optionally disables security on supported CDMA devices
I'm going to try this tomorrow!
