Rooting HTC EVO 4G using Unrevoked

Recommended Posts

hello rimwebians just come to know how to root htc evo 4g using unrevoked

so this post is just dedicated to newbies.

1. download unrevoked from http://unrevoked.com/recovery/

2. Now download the unrevoked usb modified drivers from http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install

3. After the drivers are successfully installed, double click the Reflash program to open it.

4. Turn off the phone by taking out the battery and putting it back in. Then push power to turn it on and get it to the normal home screen.

5.Right click the Reflash file and run as administrator. It should open Unrevoked and say “waiting for device”.

6.On your phone, touch Menu > Settings > Applications > Development > and make sure USB Debugging is checked ON.

7.Plug in your phone into your computer via usb cable.

8.It should automatically locate your phone that is plugged in and you can just follow the prompts to continue.

9.Done! You are rooted and have a custom recovery image!

Thanks to unrevoked for painless rooting

@ GArry

you'll have root access to the device; The ability to write to the file system. This will enable you to flash custom ROM's, customize the device with themes and icons, remove unwanted applications, add additional functionality, and other cool things
