I just dismantled my old evo dock (official),.switched around the usb connector and I was able to use the hdmi mirroring on my tv...worked great!

Not sure if this helps anyone...was hoping I would be able to launch the webtop once I plugged it in but only had the standard options for the hdmi connection.

Apparently I'm the only one ever who ordered the HD Dock :O Hoping we get it :D

Edit: Got it!

$ su
# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)


Details to follow, but the method used does require Webtop (thus the HD Dock)

Wow, you guys are beasts. Rooted this phone on the 2nd day it's been out. Is that a new record?

grats to those with the dock.......sincerely

how slim are the chances to get this done without the dock?; 100$ is a good chunk of money and i rather use the money to donate to the various devs responsible for rooting and roms.

I only picked up the dock to dock it at work and plug it into one of my monitors at work but only to find out my monitors don't have HDMI inputs. But least it is good for rooting.

I had the same issue, but an HDMI to DVI adapter is only $3.

Now I don't hate being in the office so much.
