    Root S-off question

    Ok so I got my Evo 4g into S-off. I was running revolutionary and typed 'Y' to install clockwork recovery but it stops, over and over, and I can't continue no matter how many times I run the program. I confirmed that I have S-OFF status. Is this ALL I need to be able to install Barnacle WiFi...

    HELP: WiFi or 3G?

    Bare with me here, I'm new to this. :) I almost went with the Transformer Prime. But I'm now leaning back towards a 10.1 tab. All I really wanna do is web surf....anywhere. Text, some apps, games (not a hardcore gamer in need of a Tegra 3). I'm spoiled by being able to tether my laptop to...
