    You can not root
    after you install the regular Gingerbread update
    the bootloader is locked

    I still find it hard to believe that the EVO 3D has already been rooted with Gingerbread on it, but we haven't gotten one for the EVO 4G yet....I saw a rom that gives your 4G the 3D look and I want to try it but we all have to wait for the root to be released first.

    Some links to help you get root. YOU MUST BE ON HBOOT 2.16.0001 for this to work. The video in the 2nd link shows you how to check your HBOOT.
