Useful Tutorial on Rooting Your Android - EVO 4G General

Hello XDA Forums!
I've been a new member here on these forums. Just letting newer users know that I found a helpful tutorial on YouTube that helped me root my phone.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSi5ssAWFAk
It was broken down into three posts, which I found extremely helpful. Not sure if others in the community will find it helpful!
Enjoy!

I'm sorry but it is people like you that annoy me. Calling every Android phone a "Droid" is stupid at best.

In return, its people like you who annoy me. I try to share something useful I found. Then, some 12 year old flames me on it. Grow up kid.

But really you should change the title from droid to evo vuz newbies might not know u meant evo when it says droid

I get where they are coming from...it's annoying to see Verizon's branding turning into the general term for any Android phone. It confuses things and helps a crappy company define the market.
That said, it's a common thing and no need to break balls over it.

I will change the title of the thread. Thank you for the helpful suggestion. This guide just helped me root my phone!

Kind of odd that they would call him. And... did he actually patent the app or did he just put it up for sale? Also, it's a common feature. It isn't as if they were going to avoid adding this because one person or a dozen people created an application to do it. Secondly, it isn't like they are selling it. It is merely included in the os.

Another reason to hate Apple.
Interesting read! Guess I'm not that surprised either.
Not surprising for me. I reckon Apple will also claim that the notification center is completely their own Idea.
But what can you expect from a Corp that accuses MS of stealing the window approach when Stevie stole exactly that from Xerox.

Update chase app

Just letting every one know that chase released an update for us evo users. I know alot of people were having problems with it.
Wow thanks I don't know what I would do with out you! Android market would never tell me I have an update available..........
I know you are trying to be informative, but it is kind of unnecessary to create a post for this.

No need to be a smart ass. I was doing it for all of those that said they were uninstalling it because it was pissing them off.

My evo sometimes takes forever to tell me there's an update.
I have a better bank than chase. Plus I wouldn't advertise what bank i have. Here, I have a special apk file for chase you can use. :-D sound good? haahhahahhaa It's really special, it tells me all your information I need to know. your dollars and cents and where you buy your bras at. :-D

Uncomfortable situation

His dad told him he'd stop paying for his stuff after college so it probably wouldn't work.

What the hell is this?? I supposed you are serious. Maybe you should take some time off to think about posting this kind of thing in a mobile forum...this ain't appropiate at all.
And don't say..."but I had my atrix", yeah right. Not on my watch. This has been reported and it's against the rules since it's offensive for many members.
Maybe you should have time to read the iron fist innitiative.
Adios

Gonna be an influx of new users like yourself since the Vibrant has been a work horse. Best thing to do is read, read, and then read some more.
