Rooting HtC Evo 4g brand new
- Thread starter wtfm8
- Start date
Awesome!!
I know you're excited, and who could blame you? But I would start here: http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc...-help-info-asking-help-updated-1-14-11-a.html
and just read through a little bit to see some of the involved steps. Just to get familiar with it all

I did and im a bit confused i have android 2.2 and its 004 and hboot is 2.10.001 so should i use
[ROOT][GUIDE] HBoot 2.02/2.10 SOFF - There Will Be Root - Upd. 01.10.11 - xda-developers
[ROOT][GUIDE] HBoot 2.02/2.10 SOFF - There Will Be Root - Upd. 01.10.11 - xda-developers
That is one option, or you can use the Universal Auto Root or Unrevoked3.3+ -
They are all options to root, the one you linked to here is the most "involved" process but the plus side is that you'll be a lot more familiar with the workings of your EVO - I'd say personally that's the best way to go.
I would suggest you read that thread, get the files and then read it over again and kind of get the idea of what you'll have to do.
ok thanks will do , what files do i need, and i want to back up my rsa keys to save my 4g just incase
I would not suggest Unrevoked 3 by any means. It can mess up your phone bad. I would use AutoRoot.
[ROOT] ~~~ HTC EVO - Universal Auto Root ~~~ v2.2 (works with all version)(1/10/11) - xda-developers
But read read read first. Read as much as you can on rooting before you do it. The more knowledge you have before the better of you will be.

All the files you need are included in that thread, as well if you read down it a bit you'll see that one of the first things you do, is backup your 4G RSA keys.
Nope, unrevoked is at unrevoked.com/recovery.
That thread uses an unrevoked tool, called unrevoked-forever which is the only way you'll be able to get a "full" root - or have the ability to flash different software.
It's an automated process of the first link you posted, it's good a lot of people use it. The only draw back I have with it is that you don't really learn too much. If you want to get it done and easy, that's a good way to go though. Just make sure you follow the directions to the T (as far as having a clean installation).
If your talking about me I am a girl. And it works with no issues. Unless of course you don't follow the directions. And yes you do learn a decent amount doing it that way because half of it you have to do yourself. It is a good way to root your phone. Much better than unrevoked3.
You can't use the quick version with a new, it has to be less than hboot2.02 and less than hardware version 004 to use the quick version.
thnx that could have been an epic fail! So before I start What do I need to download just autoroot v2.2 full zip? and thnx again your fuys support is truly awesome
Yup, you'd get the full one, I'm not sure of the version but as long as it's the latest you're good to go.
If anything goes wrong, don't freak out and start doing crazy stuff to your phone, just post in the thread at XDA or in this thread here and we'll help you out. (sometimes people go crazy and it hurts more than it helps) - that being said, you'll be fine! Just do each step and follow the directions.
You should read the last few pages on the XDA thread to see what other users are recently experiencing as well.
ok thnx im downloading it now, this autoroot doesent show how to do a nandroid backup of the rsa keys and wimax(i want to do this before attempting to root)
i did its a bit confusing so im just downloading auto root full version (almost half a gig damn) i want ot do a nandroid backup for my 4g rsa keys just incase but i dot know how
Since this happens before root on the other thread you can try just following the directions for this on the first thread you posted - I'm not sure what files you'll need from that thread's download though.
