Root [CDMA] confussed about root

[trayluv73]

I've been reading and reading and reading about the root on the evo 3d and I get more and more confussed!! I've updated my firmware to 2.3.4 and I want to root my phone. I need a step by step tutorial and I even prefer a video! Is there anything like this or am I just dreaming? I need the wifi, I really don't care too much about the the other things quite yet. Thanks everyone, this bud is for you!!

if you installed, there are 2 folders that have the commands you need, tools and platform-tools. copy everything out of one folder and put in another. during the install, adb is in platform-tools and fastboot is in tools

here is fastboot if you cant find it
