:clap:clapOK got my phone number issue taken care of... when you threaten to return the phone and get a new in the store its funny how fast they can program a number for it.
Tonight I rooted my EVO, that was very simple to do using unrevoked 3.
Tried getting wireless teathering to work without success. I can see the new wireless network on my laptop and I can connect to it, but for some reason it never gets an IP address. I did get PDAnet to work which is ok, but sometimes I would like my wifes laptop to be online as well which is why I want the wireless tethering to work.
I do like the phone, as I said there was a learning curve but for the most part I have it down now.

So does the droid. I just mis-spoke.
:haha
i agree. verizon has another commercial calling an HTC phone a Droid. Thats what most are calling these phones now.Droid = Android
Yes, officially "Droid" is a licensed name that Verizon no doubt paid BIG BUCKS for to George Lucas, but as noted above, it's turning into Kleenex=tissue, Xerox=copier, and so on.
Verizon doesn't have any non-Android phones that they call "Droids".
glad you got it down scott. guess i'll be trying out unrevoked 3 as well since for the first time ever i've been a little scared to mess with a phone.OK got my phone number issue taken care of... when you threaten to return the phone and get a new in the store its funny how fast they can program a number for it.

trueRey, there are phones by HTC that have Droid for their real name (Droid Incredible). It was a pretty smart move by Verizon to have many of their phones labeled Droid as they can just run a general Droid ad campaign and advertise the majority of their Android phones.
UnrEVOoked 3 was simple, just plug in the phone, click go and watch it do it's thing. It was all automatic.
Now that I have rooted though not sure where to go from here or what else to load as I said I was trying to get wireless tethering working.
Rocky, I know this does not address scotts problem, but the wireless tether that is built into BB V0.5 has been extremely stable for me.
Scott, there are many apps that you can only load with root access.
Might want to check out droidforums.net. Plenty of info on roms and such. Might find something for the EVO there.
I actually haven't tried it since the upgrade to BB.5. BUT BB.5 itself has been remarkably stable.
I can not reiterate enough how valuable Titanium Backup is. Particularly if you are going to live in the world of custom roms.
