Is there anyone in the Queens NY area willing to get me free wifi on my Evo 4G? Name the price, just tell me when and where?? I tried looking into it myself, looked at a few you tube videos but I am lost. Any help would be appreciated!

not sure what you mean by free wifi? are you talking about wifi tethering? and if so you will need to root your phone. if you want to root your phone, it is better that you learn how to do it. we can help you out on the rooting part, but we will need to know some info first. we need to know what is your hboot version. to find this out you will need to get to the bootloader. so power off the phone (make sure that fastboot is disabled, settings>apps>uncheck fastboot) next press and hold power+vol down. if you can report back with what you see on the screen then we can point you to the right guide for you use to root your phone. once you are rooted you can then flash a custom rom that has the sprint's hotspot hacked or you can just install the wifi tethering app.
 
We've got plenty of step-by-step guides here that will walk you through everything you need to get rooted and get wifi tethering.

Just let us know what OCN asked above and we will point you in the right direction
