What happens when Google hands out the yet to be released Sprint HTC EVO 4G to nearly five thousand developers at their I/O conference? I’m sure Google was hoping that it would be a nice incentive for developers to create new games and apps for the Android platform, but Matt Mastracci and a group of friends though it might be a little more fun if they simply rooted the handset. After a few hours of work, their effort paid off. It’s pretty amazing how dedicated that the hacking/developer community is dedicated to HTC device. Unfortunately, Matt does not think the same rooting method will work on the HTC DROID Incredible.
Details and instructions of the rooting process for the HTC EVO 4G have not been released, but they have posted up a few pictures on grack.com to prove that they have actually achieved what they are claiming.
