well unrevoked basically let you do anything root would except remove bloatware and flash roms

cuz what i was planning to do was install the update directly from my phone and then root with this method .. if i do that will my phone have the latest radio wimax added on to it already?

No, you'll have to update those on your own. From what I've read unrevoked breaks your 4G because they delete your MAC address or something.. I'm not sure exactly sure on that so don't quote me..

Some bad news and good news..

Bad news is my internet stopped working...

Good news is I'm tethering to my PC to upload, so it might take a few...

Unrevoked2 (recovery) is what had the issue that broke 4g. Is was pulled off unrevoked's site soon after when they realized that this happened.

Back to SimpleRoot... Because of the radio update it would probably be easiest to accept the OTA update and then use SimpleRoot?

jiqqaman · Jul 8, 2010

This is for those who updated to 1.47.651.1 and lost root. All this does is downgrades to a previous version with root.

What if I never had root and updated when I got the phone (which was right after they put the fixed OTA update out)? Should simple root work? Or should I go along with your video tut you made for the other root guide?

If you're on 1.47.651.1 then use this.

Just started "Step 4: Reboot + Scan". Seems to be stuck on part 2...

prompt-
"Waiting on phone..."
"Starting part 2..."

This supposed to take a while usually?

jiqqaman · Jul 8, 2010

No. The most 45 secs - 1 min.

I tried this 3 times on my own phone unrooting each time and updating to the latest OTA without a single fail.

Either way, let me know your outcome..

I get the error message in the command prompt
"cannot stat 'part4' : no such file or directory"

murdercitydan · Jul 8, 2010

When you click step 4, what is supposed to happen exactly?

It restarts my phone and thats it. I clicked Step 4 again, because I got tired of waiting and adb spat out that my device was not found, but it also told me to move on to the next step, which starts at telling me to select something from the bootloader...

So is Step 4 supposed to take me to the bootloader after it reboots? Or do I need to go VolDown+Power on my own?

Edit: I got the same error on Step 1 as Frankie_Bones ""cannot stat 'part4' : no such file or directory".
I just waited it out, eventually it told me to continue on with the steps.

jiqqaman · Jul 8, 2010

Frankie on what step did you get that?

step one i waited and it prompted me to go to step two

jiqqaman · Jul 8, 2010

Ok I see where the error is happening but part4 is not needed as I removed it I just forgot to remove the command. You might also see one for recovery.img, I just forgot to removed the command. It doesn't effect the root process either so continue to step 2. Ill update that later

after you load the flash site it will give a message to continue on to step 4 you then click step 4 and it will reset the phone into the bootloader

jiqqaman · Jul 8, 2010

Frankie, did you manage to get it to work?

murdercitydan · Jul 8, 2010

All done.

I think my problem was closing one of the command prompts too early,(it told me to press any key, so i did =])

Thank you very much jiqqaman, that definitely beats typing in commands by hand and everything.

Now I have a fully rooted EVO, whoohoo!!

Off to rom it up!

mad rep for jiqqa

One question though, do I need to update my wimax/4g/radios? (don't have 4g in my area, so thats not such a big issue yet.)

Glad to know it worked for you! Well if its not a issue for you right now then no. Im in NYC and I get 4G in certain areas(4G is not officially released here yet) and I havent updated my radio to the latest one. I currently have 1.39.00.05.31
