Default How exactly do I root EVO 4G with Unrevoked 3.3?

I see that Unrevoked 3.3 was just released and supports rooting HTC EVO 4G with version 3.70.651.1. I downloaded the Unrevoked 3.3 Windows program, but I can't find step by step instructions on how to actually install it and root the device. Can someone kindly provided the steps or a link to the steps?

Thanks in advance

the steps should be the same as using version 3.21. There are several guides in the evo 4g development forum. You can also click the more info button on unrevoked's site.

Go to more info and near the top it will talk about the usb drivers. First make sure you have the driver installed. Now go to the download for unrevoked 3.3 and double click and run it. It will tell you step by step what to do. PM me if you have trouble.

Make sure you have the latest unrevoked 3.3 downloaded and not the 3.21 package. Also, make sure that HTC Sync is NOT installed.
