The only way i know of to brick a phone is to flash a GSM Radio and there should be none on this forums

hey whats up. i live in tampa. theres really nothing to the root though, if you can follow the simple steps you should be fine.

I upgraded my evo to .6 update and then ran the unrevoked app and am sticking to that root as of right now for homebrew and wifi tether. There's not much incentive to flash a rom since not much is out there yet. Give it a little time but for now the unrevoked is as simple as can get. Install the app, run the program and it will "root" your phone every time you boot up as long as the app is installed. Uninstall the app, reboot and your phone should go back to stock (i think)

Keep in mind that the nand is still locked so you wont be able to flash custom roms with the unrevoked method but its fine for wifi tether and the sort...lemme know if you got any more questions

Sound easy enough, does that unrevoked app install whatever is needed to run the wifi or do i have to find additional info for that?

and thanks alot.
