Sorry for this noob question, but I've tried searching this and other android forums for this info and there's so much info and it's confusing the hell out of me..
Anyway, I have a stock EVO with the latest OTA update (software version: 1.47.651.1) and it has never been rooted. All I want to do now is be able to use wireless tether (with multiple laptops) via my EVO. What is the easy/best way to achieve this?
I know the first thing I need to do is root the EVO. Should I do this using Unrevoked, or using something like SimpleRoot? For my purposes, what's the difference b/t these two methods?
Next, is wireless tether an app that I have to download somewhere? If so, which is the best one (if there are more than one). Or will this feature surface automatically after rooting the phone. Or does it come on some ROM that I need to flash?
And finally, what is this Radio/WiMax patch thing that everyone is trying to put on their phone?
Thanks.
