Unrevoked is back from taking a short breather now holding version number 3.21, a big .01 up from when the one-click root method was pulled for testing after some devices weren’t playing too nicely with the software. Now you can quickly and easily get back to rooting a whole slew of HTC-branded phones including the EVO 4G and Droid Incredible. It sure makes rooting tempting, doesn’t it? If you are ready to take the plunge there is a whole guide available at the Unrevoked site.

I will be waiting for someone to test this before I root the device using this method and not any other SSH version of rooting it.
Tried it out on my Incredible last night and it worked perfectly. Goodbye city id, goodbye vz navigator. Hello Titanium Backup and Rom Manager :) Make sure you download the hboot drivers if you’re a windows user.
Every time I read about unrevoked, I wonder what I could have done with the time I was pissing around making a goldcard. Probably slept, so no biggie.
It worked great. Was quick and easy. The version of wireless tether that is in the market doesn’t work. I have the apk for the newer version that works flawlessly. Email me [email protected]
I ran this version back when they pulled it and it worked fine for me. My evo was rooted in under 5 minutes. I’m sure this version will work perfectly for everyone. I love being able to wifi tether without having to pay the outragous $30 fee that shoud be illegal.
seriously stupid question.. is it hard? will it screw up my evo? I want to root but dont know if its worth it.
so did they take it down already because i juse see unrevoked 3 and forever under the evo
Once you click on the link that says 3, it will show 3.21.
It works, its quick, its painless, and it has no issues, as of yet anyway.
Did it last night without any problems on my Evo. I’m now cruising on Fresh Evo ROM.
I want to try this, but I’ve never rooted or messed around with custom ROM’s before. Is it easy to go back to the “standard” if I decide to later? Also is there a good website that lists different custom ROM’s for the Evo?
WHERE DO I PUT THE HBOOT DRIVERS AT AFTER I DOWNLOAD THEM BECAUSE MINE DEVICE MANGER DOSENT SHOW ANDROID 1.0 WHEN I PULL IT UP
So easy.
Does anyone have a process to un-root their phone using this procedure to root just in case i need to service my phone back to sprint..? A disaster recovery of some sort?
@isaiah Why are you yelling?(easy on the caps)
Worked perfectly on my Evo. No problems,no issues.
i need help my i cant instal the driver for windows, im runing xp
Question. Does this work with Droid 2.2? Thanks
I DID IT AND I INSTALL ROOTAPPS AND SAYS NO ROOT AVAILABLE AND I CAN’T BACK UP MY PHONE TO INSTALL A ROM SOMEONE PLEASE HELP AND YES IF YOU MAY KNO I AM A NEWBIE BUT I DID MY RESEARCH APPARENTLY NOT GOOD ENOUGH?
Can I root my HTC Hero with this program? It supports Droid Eris, which is CDMA version of Hero, but I am not sure if it will be safe for my Hero… Is possible to root Hero with this prog?
@ kiddluilu. YOUR A WASTE OF HUMMANITY FOR USING CAPS.
Why isn’t there root for legend???

I did it last night and it was the easiest thing ever…I tried using that one click thing during 2.1 and it was extremely more complicated compared to this. Way to go UNREVOKED!!! You are amazing
i did the root and it feels great, now that i am running baked 1.7
Which phone did you root? Is it Hero?
This worked great. I was actually using the links from the irc chat when Matt came on and decided to put it out.
Took me 15 mins and everything was done, Rooted EVO zippy fast. Love it.
I had a stock HTC Evo and downloaded the official Sprint OTA froyo, and then I used the previously released 3.21, and I’m flying with fully unrevoked forever root!
I see that this renewed 3.21 is approximately 2mb larger, so I guess they added some more compatibility features in this latest release.
But people, its easy. I’m not sure what the technical differences are between 3.21 before being pulled and the recently released 3.21, but I’m happy nonetheless.
Oh, and by the way, it will on default unrevoked forever the phone, so u will not have to run the separate “unrevoked forever” software.
…AND FOR HTC LEGEND?????????? :(
according to the unlocker this works for the legend. anyone try it?

… AND FOR HTC HERO?????
DID ANYONE TRY IT WITH HTC HERO???
tried it on my legend and it just hangs. i am forced to pull out my battery and restart the phone. i tried it 2 times and im convinced this method doesnt work. tried it on a mac running the latest version of snow leopard. if anyone gets it work please let me know. thanks!
Is there a step by step for this? When Unrevoked 3 says “When bootloader starts, press volume down to HBOOT USB, then press power. Make sure driver is installed!”, I do the above but it tells me there is no Image on my phone. I assume that means I need a driver. Where do I get it and where do I put it?
nevermind. ugh, I’m here a student to my critisims. jumped the gun…

I have the same problem, I think is because the latest update for the evo.
Doesn’t work on mine… Says it can’t reboot??? Tried 5 times. Even followed a viedos advice on youtube to double check I’m doing it right. Anyone know what I should do?
