Root www.unrevoked.com Went Live

Was just about to post this. How easy is it to install? Sorry, newb here.

I tried to run the android sdk on my computer but had issues.
 
Is this root any different from the toast method other than being one click/newb friendly? Does it achieve full root (write to /system while in android)??
 
should i test this? anyone test this yet?

it's a apk file, so just download to your sdcard and run it with astro and follow the instructions

btw where does it say old and new updated rom are compatible?
 
Correct the root doesnt stick it needs to be done every reboot but at this moment that is being worked out. and the reason I know it works with both updated and non updated evos is that I am with the unrevoked guys right now. Also I will be posting again very shortly as it should be a sticky root in the next 30 minutes. I will let you know.

app2sd?
 
just tried it and rebooted - it didn't stick. Also the instructions still say it requires reboot everytime.
sorry I was a lil ahead of them try it again v 1.1 and it says just got a lil more sticky. Sorry once again just trying to keep you guys here on AF with the fastest updates....:D
 
question, and sorry if it's a noob question, but if the UNREVOKED application is terminated from the processes, will it "unroot" the phone?

Will try again with the sticky...
 
Can we apply this along with toast's root method? Will it fix his broken wifi tether? If not... would backing up with recovery enable me to restore on top of a stock rom and retain that stock ROM?
