Gingerbreak not working - EVO 4G General

Hello.
Since i could post in the real gingerbreak thread i try to post it here.
According to the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765 i should format my SD card and then i can install gingerbreak and try to temproot it.
The problem is that when i press "root device" it starts to work and after 45 seconds - 1 min it reboots so i go into Android Terminal and write SU and it says access denied?
Have tried to post it on several other forums... what am i missing?

I assume you're on stock HTC software? That gingerbreak page says it *may* work on some Froyo versions but it doesn't seem likely.
I'd try to root using one of the proven ways found in the Evo forums. I'm guessing that this isn't working because it's intended to be used on phones running Gingerbread which the Evo does not have yet.

Don't misunderstand me.. the following questions insinuate nothing, just trying to get a little more info.
What device and software are you attempting to use GingerBreak on?
What do you hope/plan to achieve by using GingerBreak?

oh i'm so sorry.... so obvious that i should have mentioned that i have the OTA 2.3.3
i'm hoping to put in a better rom such as leedroid for better batterytime

Crimony, get over it.
it'd be interesting to time it and see how fast do we get one with root
The find beings once some rooted custom roms becomes available. I know the devs are working hard on their official final rooted Rom.

this isn't JL5. This was built yesterday.
If you were to actually decrypt the file, you would see that the entire naming has changed, which is why I was unable to find it yesterday. they are using TMKKA5 in the link now.
sorry all ... i was wrong and used wrong file...
IT IS REAL KA5 firmware

Thank you for staving off panic Krylon360. Are you planning to release a "cleaned up," rooted, and recovery flashable version of this release as you did with LJ5? It would be great if you have time. Thank you in advance and as always, your efforts are greatly appreciated....
So is this froyo for the vibrant that youguys pulled off the russians?
Samsung needs to fix its update system -_- leaving us original galaxy s buyers in the dust while releasing THE SAME PHONE with the updated software that our phones "can't handle"

[Q] What do you think about this? multitouch?

Hi again I was randomly searching for google on multitouch then I saw this when I searched google news...
so will this be applicable and is it safe to do on x8?
link:
http://maboot.com/how-to-install-multitouch-drivers-on-android-enabling-multitouch-–-a-guide/1769/
oh!!! it's surprising that there no more add... but great news if real!!!
I am trying to flash the multitouch driver to my X8, Let's hope i won't Brick it

Thanks!!!
Flashing works, i am a little busy, i'll return and i'll try to make multitouch work with all apps later
update? I know there's a lot of skilled people in this forum, please try if these works so us noobs can know if it's safe to install..
These are drivers from x10 I'm pretty sure it will take more than a few minor tweaks to get working on x8. I really hope I get proved wrong though.

if I try this is there any risk of bricking, etc.?
Dammit, man who wrote that article is TOTAL n00b... he didn't even mention that it's for SE, nor that it's for Xperia, and ONLY for SE Xperia X10... that thing there is Bin4ry's flash bundle for X10 dualtouch...

Wait... don't tell me that you've successfully flashed this kernel and got multitouch? At least in multitouch visualizer??

Flashing the kernel is an success, aplying the multi-touch to all apps bricked my device. I restored Xrecovery backup and that's what unbricked it, try doing the step that aplies multitouch to all apps and tell me if it worked for you
He flashed the kernel?
I thought it wasn't possible to flash kernel on x8 show us a screenshot of your kernel version please?

Doubt it, I'm sure the MT drivers in the package are kernel dependent therefore wont work on stock x8 kernel.
