Use the ADB d2 premanent method posted here... Not only will it get you rooted faster but you learn invaluable ADB skills. Its very simple just takes 15-20 minutes of reading... you will learn nothing using a one click...
Thanks for the help and I had no problems rooting my Droid x but the fascinate is throwing curve balls and I will use other method.
Curious to see what this bad boy will do

ok. Yeah, the one click worked on the X but for some reason people are reporting some of the one clicks taking extremely long or not working at all... If you can follow the adb commands and root it manually you'll be set. I'm running JT's froyo right now and it is FAST!! Just wait till we get a froyo kernel to work with. Bird/JT/Kaos/Adrenelyn will have a field day.
Yeah I'm excited because moto's locked bootloader is a drag and I was debating the one click method for the fascinate but thought I'd give it a shot but ill deff use the other one once I get back to the PC ill post back with my results thanks alot for your help

No it was DI01. I didn't see DL09 mentioned earlier in the thread, I just assumed the unrooted phone in question was DI01. I forgot it received the OTA update to DL09 recently.

You just need to make sure you have your Samsung USB Drivers and as far as I know that should be enough. Might need busybox and ADB as well but not sure about that. Check out the Odin tutorials on this forum.
yeah the usb drivers is that in odin or a separate download I'm on my phone now and the search in the mobile app is not accurate a lot

When I run wireless tether it starts and seems to work, but I don't see it as an option in my wifi on my laptop. I'm thinking my phone's wifi should be on, but it isn't and it won't start while running the program so maybe that's the problem?

I used unrevoked 3. Goto unrevoke dot com and select your phone and follow the directions. It does say it won't work with phones after 11/16 or something which I don't understand since the software should be the same unless they hardwired something to prevent it. I wasn't able to do it till this newer version of unrevoked came out.
Before retards ruin your phones with unrevokoked you need to check which bootloader your phone shipped with. If it has hboot 2.02 you cannot use unrevokoked. You need to follow the guide "hboot s-off fresh like pinecones" to achieve root.

I'm only a retard so I couldn't say for sure. I just followed the directions on unrevoked and it worked like a charm. I really just wanted to get WiFi tether to work and it does now. I would think there would be lots of people posting that their phones got bricked by unrevoked3 if that were the case, but again I'm only a retard hehe.
I have tried unrevoked like 5 times now and it keeps getting stuck , and I tried the s off 2.02 and it will not let me flash recovery it changed the Rom and put it back to 2.1 but that's it , nothing I have tried works this is the first time I have ever seen one do this

it is not the easiest way.. but it will teach you want you are doing at each step and why.
uses unrevoked and amon_ra
these are solid.. and will be great for future mods.
Unrevoke is the easy way off rooting, but make sure to have hboot drivers install( windows only) before rooting
sent from my evil evo!!
No worries
I use Unrevoked all the time and it works flawlessly on Hardware 2 through 4 phones. Just make sure you download the latest version at:
http://unrevoked.com/#evo
Other methods as mentioned above work too but can be somewhat complicated. In the end, they all use Unrevoked to achieve S-OFF.
Add one more vote for Unrevoked.

the all in one root method. search the dev section for it. very easy & simple.
Ha... I'm familiar with Adb, have Android SDK setup on ubuntu and windows, but the sheer amount of info here for the Evo, its overwhelming, a lot of defunct procedures and conflicting info, I just didn't want to start down the wrong path. I'm seriously considering getting the Thunderbolt, I'm in the 30 day trial with Sprint and although I like the Evo with all the development here, the Thunderbolt is looking
awfully appealing... Cheers to everyone for your assistance...

I think you should just stop and not root your phone just from looking at how you've asked this question twice in the same section as well as in the dev section.
Having a rooted phone doesn't make you cooler or give you special powers no matter what your friends told you, trust me.

Well seeing how I'm 15 and (and starting football and powerlifting camp today) building my own roms and a tester for TeamRoyal it can't be too hard but really to the OP you can't post multiple times, its a good way to get your question dismissed by the community. But to actually answer your question, the easiest would probably be the gfree method which is stickied in the development page.

I agree the same. At least try to keep the thing in only one post.
To root my MyTouch 4G took me over a week, of reading extensive posts here on XDA. Until i got it with the Link that i Posted on your last Discussion.
So every step, from the beginning, slowly. When you see that something is not going right, stop, and tell us Exactly what is happening
And yes, PERMROOT Wont give you special powers to show offf to your friends. Most likely if you do something wrong, say bye to that phone or have ready 100 $ to pay someone to fix it for you.
I just want root to install custom roms. I had a Samsung vibrant before and it was so easy to root.

You people are funny with the whole root giving power thing, but I swear root gave me +100hp and eng hboot gave +100mp extra. But ya rooting is easy and you don't even need a PC. Story behind it...
I lost my HD2 (Leo1024) as it was my first dev-phone so I heavily modded it and few had personal things I never even released to public so now some prick walking around with it. When this happened dual core based phone the LG-Opt2x and Moto-Atrix (dual core) was still 4months behind and I couldn't wait for it so next best thing I got was MT4G (spec wise DHD-US model), so week before I got MT4G I did total run down from known issues with MT4G to root, ect. So I walk in to the TMoStore and the rep try to "sell" me MT4G so I told the guy save yourself some trouble I already know about the device and so we can skip all this BS and wanted to for it direct.
So I told him to open the box so I can verify it was superior display (by then we already knew about inferior SH model). So he started asking other silly questions how hard it was rooting and back then the meth was lil weird as you needed battery pull. Since I lost my phone they verified my account and gave me a new simcard free and provisioned my line on the spot. So I downloaded all the files needed from my phone for TheUnlockr meth to SDCard and rooted it in front of him using TempROOT (VISIONary+) and PermROOT (root.sh).
So what exactly is the easiest way?

Follow the TheUnlockr meth which takes 1min to root using VISIONary+ to obtain TempROOT and when you have it you can get PermROOT by running root.sh script.

Before the bootloader was unlockable, there were the people unhappy with their phones and made threads in a toddler temper tantrum announcing they were getting a different phone and why. It always made me chuckle, that they think anyone cares. Don't see much of those threads anymore.

I'd like to say thanks too. I've rooted, unlocked the bootloader, manually installed GB and the radio update and installed CWM recovery. And everything just worked. The roms and programs worked great, and any lingering issues I had were resolved by a quick search of the forums. You guys have made the process of updating my phone a breeze. Thanks so much!
Granted the Iphone stuff was super easy.... just wait for an update, then wait for someone to develop a jailbreak for it...I just jailbroke my sons friends ipod by going to jailbreakme.com and that was it. Now as far as themes and overall customization, this phone is badarse.
