Not everyone who wants to root his or her Android phone is interested in doing things the hard way (like me, for example — if I had an Android phone, of course). Want to make things easy on yourself? Download unrevoked and let it do the heavy lifting for you!
The tool provides simple rooting for five HTC Android phones: the Incredible, Desire, Aria, Hero, and Evo.
Windows users: you’ll need to first load the included HBoot drivers — Linux and Mac users won’t. You’ll also need to make sure that no other programs are trying to access your device via USB (like HTC Sync or DoubleTwist, for example).
