Unhappy Gingerbreak not working
Hello.

Since i could post in the real gingerbreak thread i try to post it here.

According to the http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1044765 i should format my SD card and then i can install gingerbreak and try to temproot it.

The problem is that when i press "root device" it starts to work and after 45 seconds - 1 min it reboots so i go into Android Terminal and write SU and it says access denied?

Have tried to post it on several other forums... what am i missing?

I assume you're on stock HTC software? That gingerbreak page says it *may* work on some Froyo versions but it doesn't seem likely.

I'd try to root using one of the proven ways found in the Evo forums. I'm guessing that this isn't working because it's intended to be used on phones running Gingerbread which the Evo does not have yet.

Rules to live by:
1. Don't refer to a ROM as "buttery smooth".
2. Wiping once is fine (applies to phone only!).
3. There's no reason to tell us every phone you've had.
4. Stop asking if MIUI will have 4G (wimax).
5. Read, search, read more. This is the path to learning.



Dropbox is awesome on Android!

Don't misunderstand me.. the following questions insinuate nothing, just trying to get a little more info.

What device and software are you attempting to use GingerBreak on?

What do you hope/plan to achieve by using GingerBreak?
