Is this the best way to root? (Intentionally for Humor) - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

So I was told that if I root my phone I'll have a better user experience. So, I'm attempting to get roots now. I've got it next to a healthy plant but I'm not sure how much to water it or how long it will take to root with this method. Any green thumbs out there that can share some advice?

Really? Do you seriously not know how to search, or read through the forums?

Hmmmm.....potatoes are my favorite root vegetable. Why not give that a try???

Maybe try some b vitamins in the soil to help promote root growth, or maybe try something like this http://www.leevalley.com/us/garden/page.aspx?cat=2,47236&p=10564

That looks like a good option. Have you tried it? I'm a little nervous to try something unproven on such a new and expensive device. Will it get me root(s) by tonight?

I should have read further. Sorry, I got too excited. Looks like root(s) may come after 7 days.
"After 7 days, the cutting that had the root stimulator was fully rooted and generated some top growth, while the untreated cutting was only starting to callus over."

Help Need Making A very Personal App

Well basically, this girl I like, and me have the same phone, the Atrix 4G. Now I wanted to ask her to a dance, and wanna make an app for that, Something creative and original, like say plays a youtube video of me asking her to the dance, then opens up a prompt which says yes and no, if she selects yes, her phone calls/texts me the answer, what is your opinion on this? Will it work? Too Nerdy? Overkill?

i doubt you will find a dev who wants to spend time on this ... for free...
but you might figure out how to do this yourself
how long of a timespan do you have?
I reckon you might be able to get something up and running within 2 weeks~ if you're fast
this guy's got excellent FREE consolidated android dev videos on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/user/CornboyzAndroid
Hahaha thanks for all the positive replies, yeah I've never coded before in any kind of form, I'm more of a hardware person, though you see fragmentation won't be a problem here as me and her have the same phone. Any more how to videos would be appreciated, I have a lot of time for this, but just wanted to put the idea out there and get some support, after all I thought android devs would be more helpful considering they develop for open source platforms.

If its a yes, there might be a reaction video depending on whether she agrees!
I hope you don't like this girl because she has the same phone as you. That's really... rhymes with day. But uh, if she says yes, put your app on the market and market it as able to get you dates. Btw, if she says yes and you two hit it off, are you going to make an app asking her can I see what is in your panties?

I came across this thread and I cracked up. It's an "interesting" idea, to put it nicely, and you are being creative. I wish you the best of luck.

R.I.P. If anyone else cares to share their markus moments please feel free to do so. We need to express our grief as a community (in our case joy) of his absence!
My funniest was when he was asking for all these ports of phones to the Rezound including a concept phone. I just about spit up my coffee on that one.
Best was when he kept nagging devs for aosp then made no money donation to make it happen for protekk haha

Wasn't he the one complaining about waiting for S-Off? Didn't want to unlock his device until then? That must have been fun.

Getting this device, Any advise for me?

Hello, I'm getting this device on the 8th November and I'm wondering what I should know about it, Shall I get White or blue, Hows the battery, etc, Anything you think I would benefit from can you post in a reply?
Wait for LTE version or note 2 and test them personally in the phone shop. No need to rush to buy the phone. Just my 2 cent

the colour is up to you, all the rest you can find with a very simple facility called search
But if you have the phone and have something to say about it, why don't do it than just saying use search?

I think you will find is you use search, that this question has been asked so many times all the answers/opinions have been posted already.....and all the people that answer these questions are thoroughly bored of repeating ad infinitum the same old stuff.......so do your research and all the knowledge will be yours.

Pebble blue, 32/64GB .. that's it.
The phone is amazing, no issues so far.
This is my best phone ever! Always had SonyEricsson and I'm glad I chose the S3! I tried other ROMS, but I like the stock rom from Samsung more
Build quality is okay, it's plastic, but it is well-built and with a bumper I only feel bumper and screen. I dropped out once from like 1,5mtrs got some little damage on the corners, but I can't see them with my bumper, so they don't exist.
But if I could choose now, I would have a look @ the note 2, because that's an S3+

Now tha its all unlocked and rooted, think there will be an auto root method or a ez unlock ??

I think I read one of the devs say no. Only because of what was being done was rather in depth. The process is very straight forward though.

Its super easy the way it is. If it were any easier you would have to call it child unlock. Lol

Agreed. The Casual method is really really easy.
Who knows... Maybe now that the cat is out of the bag our African Canadian Sock Monkey friend will throw us a bootloader anyway. Just to reduce the risk factor.
I hate to beat a dead horse, but the current method is pretty easy and even comes with a step by step video. If you don't feel comfortable doing it you could pay a local tech to do it for you.

I understand not wanting to mess it up. Only one case that I have read of a truly messed up phone (couldn't make calls) but it was resolved and was never directly tied to the unlocking process. Area read read and then execute. If you pay attention it'll be fine . don't let any issues people are having scare you. If you pay attention it'll work out great.

yes, true story. the instructions are VERY straight forward, very step-by-step. You CANNOT mess up your phone. If you're unsure of any step or instruction, just re-read the process or rewind the youtube video.
I have to say when it comes to unlocking the one button unroot methods have caused more issues than benefits. I only say that because it made it so easy for people to really wreck their phones once they were unlocked/rooted and not really understanding the risks and what it took to get to that point.
That said of course it took me many, many times of reading through the posts, asking questions and getting help along the way. But in the end I was grateful to have know what I was doing, the risks of wrecking my $700 phone and also the true ease of restoring to stock and starting over, again and again and again until I got it right.
Adam's guide is very helpful and watching his video (although it has changed rapidly for the better) which is likely well out of step with the new method still gives you an appreciation of what it took for these devs to put forth our method of defeating the Big Red. Go for it, its not so bad.

Please make this topic a sticky

It seems as if everyday someone is asking if there is an unlock available without taking two minutes to read though another post. Can a mod please make a sticky titled "NO THERE IS NO UNLOCK FOR 2.04 OTA" :good:
Also maybe add "no you cannot just downgrade and unlock. We all know you're a genius compared to the rest of us but we already hired a think tank who spent weeks coming up with that novel idea, but it still didn't work"
