Thumbs up [GUIDE] Video obtaining S-OFF/Root using Revolutionary + TeamWin Recovery Guide

I walked my friend through obtaining S-OFF and Root on his EVO 3D earlier and decided to record it. It is rather long because I went through all of the steps, including installing the Android SDK. I figured I would share this with everyone since it might help someone with the process.

NOTE: I have heard reports of people being unable to make calls and send/receive texts after performing this procedure. You can resolve this by following the steps here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...5&postcount=43. Thanks slapshot591!
