Good to hear. I'm still anxiously awaiting this. Good to know they're working on it though.

Doesnt sound too promising for anything soon :/
I cant wait

I need a time machine
Not far in my past, I was running CM6 rc1 on my evo.

Then.
I had to do a warranty replacement and returned it to stock 2.1.

The one they sent back had *GASP* 2.2 already installed!!! OH NO!

/rant

seems like stock 2.2 is rooted

Amazing work from Sebastian Krahmer. His latest exploit also works on Froyo 2.2 on the EVO: C skills

unrEVOked forever v1.1 is now available. S-ON, more EVO radios and CDMA Hero: public:forever [RootWiki]

from what i understand and read (not sure in this forum or xda) you can downgrade your 2.2 to 2.1 by taking it to a sprint store...or was it a repair center?? its too late for me to search but...i know for a fact i read that somewhere..will it work??? it may /not..just wanted to let you guys know...

Check the unrevoked twitter again. Its a downgrade and then unrevoked 3 for root.

[leastbay]
