T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide gets rooted

The T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide has joined its fellow Android-powered handsets by getting rooted, offering users with the technical know how to gain super user access to the root directory. Currently, it requires at least 10 steps to foot your device, and bear in mind that you ought to know what you’re doing, otherwise you might end up bricking your new phone. For those who prefer to walk on the safe side, it would be prudent to wait a little longer to see whether others who were more adventurous have reported issues with the whole process. Of course, there is also the group who know that T-Mobile’s Froyo update for the Slide could very well be released shortly, so there really isn’t any point in taking up the rooting process right now.
