I am guessing you had nothing constructive to add for your fist post, with any luck it will be your last post.
I'm trying to root my buddies evo but he still have 1.32.651.6 build. where can I get the 1.47.651.1 update so I can use this simple root? Or can this still root the 1.32
nvm it update to it automatically to 1.47
If anyone has gotten their Evo's with a 2.2 froyo already installed and would like to root there phone well there is a quick fix which I don't know why nobody has posted or said anything about it.
Simply just download the RUU_SUPERSONIC_1.47.651.1 Flasher to downgrade your current rom to 2.1 (1.47.651.1 Version)
Then use Unrevoked for quick root and/or use Simpleroot for Full root access and unlock Nand which a lot of roms require now.

This is actually the link to all the stock Shipped Roms Unrooted.
It will unlock nand, you have to make your own back up from recovery.Does rooting with this method create the Nand backup, and which method is used? Is clockwork used, or amon ra?
EDIT: Reason I ask is because if I screw something up, will the root process create a backup that I can go back to with no problems?
It will unlock nand, you have to make your own back up from recovery.
You can use clockwork or RA from ROM Manager.

Download ROM manager from the market, then use it to make a nandroid of your just rooted system, this will give you a good starting point to go back to anytime.
