I just wanted to say great first post...hopefully someone will find the way to root YOUR phone because according to the 100 or so other threads, if you would have SEARCHED FIRST nobody else has been able to get it but I have faith you might be the one. So please when you get the way to root will you please share it with the rest of us! But you might wanna check the first thread at the top of the Q and A forum I think the info u need is there. So when you figure root out please report back how you did it! Oh thanks again for one of the best first posts we have seen...
P.S. HOW FA KING HARD IS IT TO SEARCH BEFORE YOU FA KING POST!

I heard they do but its really really really really hard to figure it out. I think you have to be certified or something before you are allowed to use it! Lol this is getting ridiculous......

Sorry you have enough time to worry about my newbie post. That must suck.

It must suck more to be so busy that you don't have the time to search or even read the sticky at the top of this very forum (about an inch and a half down from the "New Thread" button).

This link below should get you started; I have 'unrooted' my EVO a couple times. Of course, there's a ton of other links/posts if you search this forum.

Normally I defend newer people, but you never asked a question in your post, and you posted it in the development section.

you should change your name from teknikk7 to tekNOT and hopefully you get some manners before you make your next post

I dont know if you realized but you wrote the sentence as if you were making a comment and not interpreting it as a question about how to go from 2.2 to Stock 2.1.
Also you posted in the wrong forum. This forum is about Development only and you posted a question. You seem to not have realized that and it is fine Don't expect to get hugs and kisses from your comment when you initially did not read clearly about where to post questions. If you are still confused then maybe you this community is not the place you should be at and you should not modify your phone.
First of all... AWESOME!
There should be a thread on this! Or numerous ones! If there was only a way to find them without looking through every thread manually....
EUREEKAA!
Just having fun! Click this!

Go into Samsung Epic Development and look for the Touchwiz lock.screen fix. It is on the first or second page and flash the stock fix.

[Q] Root for Android 2.3.3

How long do you think it will take for a ROOT to come out for the Android 2.3.3?
Between now and the end of time.
We don't know and asking for etas won't get you anywhere.

I don't know... but glad someone finally thought to ask!
(sike!)
i am patiently waiting. I miss my old evo rooted. I was actually given a brand new evo that had 2.2 on it and the ota showed up and without thinking i updated. So mad about that.
Thanks, I'll be patient.
I understand this is hard work and you guys are doing it all for love (or for something other than money), so I'm not going to add my voice to the chorus asking when the root solution for 2.3.3 will be ready--even though I'm a-yearning and a-craving to upgrade and re-root my phone. I'll just say thanks for now to all you geniuses for making these phones so much better!
Hope it's soon because I'm ready I just got my evo 4g yesterday and tried to superoneclick root and z4root and it didn't work.. Never thought to check and see if 2.3 can root. Damn

the more people ask, the less likely it will be done!
And if you had searched, you would have seen this has already been asked!
I bet root will be available when you stop making new accounts just to make the same thread asking the same question over and over again.
If anything, the devs are probably getting tired of the obnoxious kids in the Evo forums badgering them. Instead of trying harder, I'd give up if I were in their shoes.
Believe it or not, there are worst things than not being able to root your phone.

Don't blame you man. The questions he asked he could of found in the same time it took him to actually post his question. You were nice enough to help him and post links, I just cant do that with some people who to me have to be lazy if they can;t find simple stuff. Two question in Q&A today can someone post a link to Decks rom -Really? and this one.. There are a million stock rooted roms in Development and I bet ya Google would of helped him as well...
sorry did not mean to rant.... I'm out!
Ok guys don't blast me. I haven't been on this page in like 2 days because of work. Thanks for finding those links for me Shorty. I don't have the ability to surf the site on PC and it takes too long to surf on the phone and its even more complicated to surf on the app. I thank everyone who helps me on here cuz I know others take time out of the things they have to do to help people like me. Sorry for not replying to this sooner. Its not my fault I work all the time.

And searching Google never led me to any of the links I needed. I try to help however I can when I can. I just don't have a lot of time to actually surf the site. If I search using the app it doesn't bring up the right pages. If I had a PC it would be easier. so thanks again Shorty.
