Since you are S off, you can flash a PC36IMG.zip of amon ra recovery, using the bootloader. Then once you have recovery, you can flash the unrevoked s on tool.

Yeah - I have that - but with no custom recovery it was a struggle. I did get that figured out so we're good there. Just disappointed that I will not have root after my replacement Evo comes in.
Can I root if my phone is:
Android version: 2.2
HW: 0004
HBOOT: 2.10.0001
Software number: 3.26.651.6
And will this give me s-off?
Also, how can I install Amon after this?

HBOOT: 2.10.0001

Is this the best root processes to be able to have root, and use Wireless Tether app to free hotspot?
Ok unlike Markkdb77 When I look at the bootloader screen first line reads "unlocked" however I am still S on. I have run this one click process of gaining root and received the same error message. failed to get root, is your firmware too new?
Android version 2.3.5
Baseband version 2.15.00.12.19
Build number 4.67.651.3
Software number 4.67.651.3
Oh and by the way yes I have su and clockwordmod. When i use root checker no i'm not already rooted.

11I first want to thank everyone at UnrEVOked for what they've done. I'm posting this because the UnrEVOked post doesn't really give any instructions. Its an easy enough root, but I know I've been there before and even the simplest things can be tough if things aren't laid out. So here's a step by step tutorial.
Due to some bugs, Unrevoked 3.2 was taken down shortly after being released, but the updated version is now LIVE! So obviously we're going to bring you a video tutorial on how to do it! Thanks to the guys at Unrevoked for giving us this simple solution to rooting the HTC EVO 4G.
LINK TO VIDEO WALKTHROUGH FOR HOW TO ROOT THE EVO
From Unrevoked:
Nice, right? So here's what you'll need
◄●REQUIRED DOWNLOADS●►
- EVERYONE: Unrevoked3. Download the version for your OS.
- WINDOWS USERS: unrEVOked modified USB driver
◄●How to Install HBOOT Drivers (Windows Users ONLY)●►
If you're using Windows, you're going to have to install the HBOOT drivers first. You can follow this video tutorial:
and follow along with these written instructions provided by the Unrevoked team:
- Download the unrEVOked modified USB driver and expand it somewhere you will remember.
- Turn off your phone, then boot it into the HBOOT menu by holding power and volume down.
- On your phone, you will have to select HBOOT USB at that menu by pressing volume down four times, then power. Wait until the screen flashes through an “SD Checking” message before pressing buttons; otherwise, the phone will ignore keypresses.
- Connect the phone to your Windows machine with a USB cable and wait for the phone to say HBOOT USB PLUG on screen.
- Open Device Manager.
- Click Start, then right click on Computer, then click Properties, then click Device Manager.
- Under Other devices, you should now see the Android 1.0 device.
- Right click on Android 1.0 and click Update Driver Software:
- Click on Browse my computer for driver software.
- Click on Browse and select the Android USB Driver folder on on your computer, click ok, then click next.
- You should get a status bar indicating that the driver is installing. If you get any warnings, just click Ok.
- Your driver should install.
- Click Close and make sure Android Bootloader Interface is listed under Android Phone.
◄●Instructions●►
- Make sure you downloaded Unrevoked3 for your OS.
- If you're on Windows, make sure you "uninstall HTC Sync or any other program that might talk to the phone over USB (doubletwist, etc). They will cause problems" (Unrevoked.com).
- Plug your phone into your computer with USB.
- Drag down from the notification bar on your phone and select "Charge Only" and "Remember this"
- Make sure your phone has USB Debugging turned on by going to Menu>>Settings>>Applications>>Development and checking USB debugging.
- Run the Reflash application that you downloaded.
- Unrevoked will run its processes. Follow the few instructions it gives and thats it!
You're now rooted!3
God all the newbies are on here trying to leech everything and anything....I'm seeing threads that I haven't seen in god knows how long in the first page..hahahaha....
If you update manually via Sprint then you will lose root! If and when you update then you're going to have to wait until Unrevoked gets updated because your bootloader is going to be different then Froyo so CHILL OUT and enjoy our day!...1
Unrevoked does not work with your hboot and it has a reputation of corrupting the newer phones. You'll need to run the 3.30 RUU to restore your phone and undo anything it may have done to it. Once you do that try the method in my sig or Zikronix's 2.02 s-off guide1
You should not try to install the Over-the-Air update. At the least it will un-root your phone, and I've heard it could even do worse than that...
This thread has a completely stock 3.70.651.1 update that is already rooted and ready to go.
