i'm gonna split all this off into an android thread. we always crap in the iphone threads.

 

[EmersonHart13]

How did I miss that, I have read this whole thread... Did you ninja that in there?

 

[Mook]

i did not

 

[bluzohh6]

Its been there since the beginning of time.

Ok mike how can someone root/hack your phone which is the same platform as mine and the incredible, but not hack mine or the incredible? not being a smart ass. Seriously asking why the hell mine can't have fun too

 

[Mook]

all they did was root the evo. doesnt mean theyve made custom roms for it. you can root your phone as well. incredible i think is the only one that hasnt been rooted yet.

you can hack your phone, its just a more involved process than before.

the funny thing about rooting the Evo...theyve made the process into a simple app now. you just have to start it after every reboot

 

[bluzohh6]

So is there an app like that for my phone? If not make one for me mike

 

[LaneLander]

Andriod on the Iphone

 

[EmersonHart13]

I used to love doing custom ROMs for my old WinMo phone.

[bluzohh6]

I have read a bunch but they all say to go back to original android then root the phone

 

[CamaroSS]

yeah, i think you gotta factory reset to do it. but im not 100% sure

 

[Theautoguy]

HTC EVO 4G sells out nationwide

It started with the HTC HD2 on T-Mobile, followed shortly thereafter by the HTC DROID Incredible on Verizon. And when the pre-order became available for the HTC EVO 4G on Sprint we told you it would happen again. Like its powerful HTC cousins before it, the HTC EVO 4G has sold out across the country. Just yesterday Sprint reported that the EVO had broken launch day sales records by leaps and bounds and rumors were swirling that 200,000 phones were sold during the launch weekend alone. Today marks the fourth day since the HTC EVO 4G has been available to the masses, and according to BGR, it's time to get on the waiting list for the next wave. Anybody miss out? Let us know how you plan to proceed!

I went to Best Buy yesterday and played around with the EVO 4G. It's a badass phone. It's a little bit bigger than my Palm Treo Pro, but it was suprisingly light. The processor seems really quick and so did the internet connection. I am probably going to pick one up shortly.
