Just wondering what Unrevoked is?? :)

---

Hey,

All im wondering is what http://unrevoked.com/ is?? i know it says easy root but what exactly does it do??

Thanks

it flashes the clockworkmod recovery into your phone and that way you don't need a pc or the shortcuts we were using so far to enter a recovery that enables us to flash new roms etc...and i think this way you can backup your ext partition on sdcard (haven't tried it yet)

Isn't it for the Evo and Sprint Hero only anyway?

Regards,

Dave

No if you head over to the www.unrevoked.com/recovery it says its also for the desire ... Has anyone tried this on the desire??

apparently lots of people have

Basically, once you root your handset and you want to try out a new rom you used to have to connect your phone to a pc and push the recovery files to be able to do anything.

Then cloclworkmod recovery was written that allowed the recovery files to be stored and started from the SD card, therefore removing the dependancy on a pc to push the files.

Now this new one, unrevoked, flashes the recovery files directly to the recovery section on your phone. No need for a PC and no dependancy on the files being on the SD card. So now, once you flash this, you simply reboot your phone with the volume button held down. Wait a few seconds then scroll ro 'recovery' with the volume button, then press the power button. This takes you directly to recovery menu that allows you to backup your current rom, flash new roms, wipe your cache etc.

So it doesnt root my phone for me??
