Read Before You Post... No root for 2.3.3!! - EVO 4G Android Development

Please people stop with the "How do I root the gingerbread 2.3.3" questions and posting its getting quite observed!! One of the the rules for XDA is read before you post!! I apologize for the exclamation marks and for the attitude but it gets on my nerves when I log in to see if there's any progress or any method to root 2.3.3 and when I see postings with the title How to root 2.3.3 well it gets me excited!! And all for what?! To see another "how do I root it posting?! Please people be patient and it will come...

hate to say it, but ppl aren't gonna stop asking. might as well just not read every post asking for help rooting if it's gonna piss u off. plus, this belongs in general, not dev...

do you have access to root? do you know something? are you holding out on us and trying to throw us off with this post?
please respond ASAP we need this root that you speak of!

Nice rom! Hows the battery life?

Just flashed this, it's running kind of slow. I am going to flash Tiamat SBC and OC a little bit.
Can't find WiMax either.. Any ideas?

Haha. Completely understandable, everyone makes mistakes once in a while.
I do have one question though.... How do I root the gingerbread 2.3.3?

I read a how to root the gingerbread thread the other day and s guy had it. His instructions were as follows: 1. Bury phone in ground. 2. Water three times a day. 3. Enjoy root for the gingerbread. I am new but those instructions seem kind of off. Step 2 I can see, but step 1 is just a little much.

Does this have 4g or 5g?

I think if the mods stickied a you can't root yet post, it would cut down on the new threads.

Please if its been posted,tell me where and ill read it but a quick search revealed nothing. I just picked up my inspire and when I check for HTC update it shows there is one. Do I need to update before rooting? Also what changes are there as far as any major steps to flashing a Rom. Like if I want inspired ace can I just root,flash recovery and install Rom? Or does the bootloaders need to be flashed before flashing a gingerbread Rom? Sorry for the 838393 million questions but I'm a long time Samsung user lol,I know my way around rooting and flashing but I know HTC phones can be a little different

anyway, like he said do that .. as far as the update first or not:
you can flash whatever radio you want after you are done rooting; for me i rooted before the OTA, but for wifey we did the update first.. it doesn't matter, as the info will be destroyed during the root anyway.
you cannot OTA after root from what i gather, as i was never offered the update as i was rooted

Lol sorry for putting it like that. It's just sometimes someones question sounds like one that's been answered already,but they mean it in a different specific way. Here lately people have been a little rude about the whole "its been answered" but really I just have a hard time explaining exactly what I mean in text. I don't mind reading the stickies but sometimes it gets confusing if you are new to a device and don't know what stage the development is at lol. But thanks man,ill go read the stickies and if I have any problems ill just post back here lol. Appreciate the kind answer

Well don't take it to harshly most are just sarcastic. I mean I am just sarcastic.
What doesn't help is when you can't truly tell for sure if its a playful sarcasm or mean sarcasm. It sometimes is hard to tell considering we are talking to each other in text form. There have been some posts I've read, not by you, but others, that I couldnt particularly tell if they were being mean or just being a smart @ss just to mess with someone without offending. I just wanna say something to the ones who have meant there sarcasm in a mean way. My wife's cousin coined these 2 phrases, and I like using them a lot. "Can't we all just smoke a bong!" And, "Life's a ***** and then you die, f*** the world let's get high!" Lmao ;D

My favorite method is to apply the OTA and then use Gingerbreak. Chainfire is a fantastic developer and I used gingerbreak to install rom manager, flash CWM, and get your flashing on.

How to install custom rom

I am a new android user. I am learning little by little about this phone. Does anyone know how to install custom rom on infuse? I got my phone rooted already.
Thanks in advance.
Ok. First of all you have to be rooted. PM me if you need help with that. Which ROM do you want to flash? There are two that are working well, Infused and refuse. Refuse needs to use odin though, and infused usually doesnt. Just hit me up and I'll send you detailed instructions via PM. We dont need more clutter in these boards.

since the this thread is already started i do have a few noob questions if someone is willing to answer
you should ask.
Look at the thread that I made in the dev section and post questions there. They will be answered
Sent from my 4.5' Infuse 4g: Currently running Infused v1.3.1 w/ voodoo lagfix. Thank you gtg465x!
k will look there first and guess go from there. I have been hesitant to ask cuz always afraid they have been asked or wrong place to ask. Ive looked thru so many pages that i probably saw the answers to some of my questions but read them as a blur. I come from an iphone and with so many android phones seems so confusing at times.

[Q] Bali On GB?

I was wondering if I missed something here, I saw some people's sig's saying they where running 2.3.3 on there SGS4G's and it said there kernal was bali 2.1 I saw a couple peoples saying that is there really a way yet to get bali on the new GB I thought you had to flash it thru cwm which gb doesnt have.
From my understanding it doesn't even support 2.3 yet.
Why start a thread about it instead of sending a pm to the few who has it in their sig? Would get a faster response no? Not only that, if people were to read all the pages in each thread they wouldn't miss a thing

I use sgs kernel flasher to flash the kernels. so i think they would have to use this on GB because there is no cmw yet. its in the market
Bali is froyo source. Not gb source. Plus, partitions are encrypted and will only work with the UNMODIFIED STOCK kernel.

If people read they wouldn't need to ask unless they stated that they read it but still don't understand. Please forgive the uncle scrooge in me.

Maybe we should do what was suggested in the vibrant forum months ago and have a new thread for each update. When you get into the 4th or 5th update and over 100 pages that 75 are thanks this flies it gets confusing and hard to find an answer.

[Q] Should I update before rooting?

i just got my o3d yesterday.
the rom that came on it is version V10b and i know that there is now V10d available for update. i have yet to root and know i want to so i'm just wondering what difference rooting will make to the update process or if i should update first then root it after...
update then root otherwise the update will fail

So should I unroot before I attempt to update in the future?
I don't know why all of you are so dumb did you develop anything here erm let me see no. So why the hell is it so hard to post a new thread on the General section or are you all retarded wow....
Sick and tired of posts of should i buy this should i do that, do it in the General section it's there for a reason Jesus... Everyday i log in here thinking someone made a custom ROM which i understand is hard to make due to it being 3D. But on can always hope, but no when i do come here i find idiots like you posting in the wrong section of the forum.
Get ****ed, asshole. Tthis is an approppriate place for the question as a developer will know way better how root and update will affect each other than joe average on the general board will.
Thanks for a valid answer to my question ik911.

EPIC FAIL!

Listen i am sorry for being a **** but the same question gets asked everyday no one searches i don't post here unless i am in deep trouble other wise the search bar and google is your best friend the internet is full of knowledge use it before asking a question that's been answers and even guided.
my bad then.
i had read that thread a while ago. obviously didn't take in what he had said about root breaking the update.
my phone was rooted updated no problem just lost root
controversy.
You can be rooted but you cannot have clockwork mod installed, you will end up having a brick like me and a couple of others.

I know, but don't we need some updates. Nothing is wrong with keeping a thread for updates now that all are 100% possible.
Entirely my thinking when posting this thread .
to be fair, i already have a thread on this
The point of this thread is to be a place easily found by everyone in our forum for the devs to post new updates now that we have kernel source. Sorry but i couldnt find your thread here on our forum mate.
Stop hating... He clearly stated that he wasnt trying to tell how devs should handle their development.
Which you made a redundant comment.... ANd ultimately you jus trolled for no reason... So please shut up and leave the poor fellow alone!

I think an all in one thread for CM7 or MIUI updates shouldn't even exist, unless one of the devs working on the ports creates it. Then it can be stickied and we don't have to worry about searching through pages of flaming for the updates!
You realize since we have source now, it aint gonna be a port but a build just for us!

I say just keep your eyes on the Android Development section and keep your fingers crossed for the holy words to grace it .
So is this a thread to decide on whether to start a thread for miui or cm7 development?
Im all in favor of having a thread that the devs can give us periodic updates on their progress with the roms. As long as the thread has a rule that you can not ask in anyway for eta's.
