Reoccurring issue rooting with various methods

First and formost, I'd like to thank ya'll for creating these awesome guides/ROMS/walk throughs and tools for rooting. That's a talent i'll unfortunately never have.
But to get to what I'm peeved about, everytime I try to root my EVO (I have the OTA update, 1.47.**.**.**), I get to the portion of the flash hack. I load the site/sites the first time. The command line tells me to refresh the page, but never tells me it's complete and to move onto the next step. I've performed every method I could find, each several times, and get caught with the same error everytime. OTA Simple, the other one written by the same author, another method with a batch file that automates it, etc. I'm at my whit's end!!
Any insight could help.
Also, SuperUser is installed from a previous failed attempt. I'm not sure if that would affect anything. Thanks guys, and keep up the awesome work!

Try using the original 1.32.xx... RUU and going back to stock then use the other Simple Root app for that version.

I had the same problems.....
best thing to do is wipe all your root files and start back at step one with simple root. When you get to step 3 and it tells you to continue to step 4 refresh the browser one more time just to be safe.
I kept getting stuck but deleting the root files and starting fresh worked for me.

Awesome. I'm definitely gonna give this a try.
Anyone else have any other suggestions?

Still the same dam results

I can not get ANY unroot method to work.

I need to return my phone because the earphone speaker is whacked out but I have spent the last couple hours trying to unroot it and NOTHING is working...
First I tried HTC Sync on my computer, and I get the Error [171]: USB Connecetion Error
Then I tried HTC sync on my bros computer (since I have unrooted using his laptop before with no problems) and I get a different error saying something about i have the wrong version of data utility updater or whatever.
I spent the last couple hours googleing both errors and looking for fixes, but for some reason I could not get any of them to work. I am as frustrated as can be rite now, and any help would be greatly appreciated....
I'd prefer some sort of "dumbed down" step by step process rather than being sent to a another link, because chances are I have tried that method already and I couldn't get it to work...
I also can not get adb shell to work. I installed the sdk, but it still wont show up...
any help from anybody will be greatly appreciated...

try applying the current over the air update. That took root away for many if I remember correctly.

did you enable USB debuging?

I tried searching for the ota's but they're not showing up.
also I am running dc 3.2 currently, which has debugging mode auto-enabled I believe.

So you tried using a stock rom from here to get your phone unrooted?
If you download one of those stock RUU roms it will be an exe file that will automatically install the rom to your phone...is this what you are saying isn't working?
Have you tried doing a full wipe/clear before running anything?

I had the same error when I was unrooting mine. I just unplugged the Evo while it still had the boot loader screen then ran the stock RUU. Worked like a charm.

yes. I tried installing the shipped RUU using HTC Sync, but sync keeps ****ting out on me and giving me errors. My only option seems to be unrooting my phone without using htc sync. But I have tried a couple of the methods e found, but none of them had detailed enough instructions for me to make them work....
I'v literally spent the majority of my day trying to unroot this damn phone and its driving me crazy.... I don't know wth the problem is.. I unrooted a previous EVO before, now it seems hopeless /:

I'd find you the link but I'm at work right now but someone has a fix for that error. Basically I got that error whenever I tried to run the stock RUU and when the phone had the bootloader screen up I just took out the USB cable, stuck it back in, and then ran the RUU again.

Well...I guess I missed that one when I was tooling around, so I wrote my own. You're right. It clearly mentions needing the proper HBOOT, which I found was the key.. But it doesn't mention how to UN ROOT after you "Start Over." It's basically the same thing though...Cheers...

When I place the PC zip file on my sd card and then boot into Hboot, it fails to recognize the card.
I used simple root to root my phone and I am running the .79 Hboot.
I'm trying to follow your instructions but I am about ready to throw this god dam phone at the wall and use insurance to get another one

You have the wrong H Boot. See here: http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7471721#post7471721
Should work on any .79 HBOOT in theory, but you have to change it to the .76 one before the RUU or the zip step you are having trouble with. Do Toast's step two which is found in the thread linked above.

[Q] Root help:"Main version older"

Hey ive been trying to root my evo all day it is on version 2.1-update1. I was able to root my brothers perfectly fine using the downloads and tutorial from the idiot-proof guide to rooting by thebiles. But on mine I get stuck right at the beginning, when i try to flash the PC36IMG my bootloader says main version older. I feel like ive tried everything if anyone can help I'd reallly appreciate it thanks.

Try simple root, and keep trying. I got that same error even with simple root on my buddies 3 times before it worked. Don't know why. Maybe try copying the pc36img to the sd card instead of letting simple root push it...gl!

I agree with the simple root approach. Not trying to highjack your post but I have a question back at you if I may. You say you have one root EVO and one not root? If so the the root has PRI 1.34 and the nonroot 1.40? Could you perhaps do a data speed comparison on these and post the results? I am real curious...

sorry man i saw your post like 2 minutes too late the simpleroot worked right before i refreshed this page thanks for the help though guys appreciate it

one more quick question while PC36IMG was flashing the 2nd "tp" file said bypassed next to it rather than OK like all the others and the first tp had a blank next to it...is this a problem i should look into before unlocking the nand and all that other good stuff?

No problem glad you got it working. This was kinda like going to the casino...getting up to go to the bathroom...coming back to see someone hit the jackpot on your machine....hahaha!!!

That is normal....mine did that.

thanks man appreciate it...one more question for anyone that can help, im using the idiot proof guide and im on step 56 but when i try to enter the adb shell i get an error from command prompt saying "error: more than one device and emulator" i entered the shell perfectly fine like 2 steps before that and used it to flash the new pc36img rom but now i get this error to enter shell again how do i fix this error?

Okay I came here thinking this might finally be it... but nope I tried all the solutions mentioned here but to no avail. I am frustrated and still getting the main version is older. Does anyone know what is causing this error. Please I'm using usb debugging I wiped and backed my SD and have ota that came out in June. I installed Microsoft net frame and htc drivers. I updated simple root and the update log said this was to fix the error but still getting the same error. Any suggestions

I have the same issue, pretty much have tried everything with no luck, kind bummed at the moment, hope someone can help
Thanks

I got to work FINALLY!!!!!
So finally i got the main version error older NO MORE. So i decided to share what i did in hopes that it will work for all of you frustrated out there.
1) Download simple root from xda forum, dont download it anywhere else. The first time i tried i downloaded it at another android forum and even though it may seem the same, this version for some reason was not pushing the files as it suppose to. So again download from forum. Search for it on XDA.
2) Be patient and prepare yourself.
3) Make sure you on the 147 ota version. Not froyo. or before any version before ota because you can use old simple root.
4) After you download it extract it to a folder. Choose whatever location suits you i like desktop so i can delete file after i use it and keep zip. Be sure to update the program. Open it and let it search for downlaod or go to root folder and search for the updater.
5) Before running the program check the obvious. Is usb debugging enable, Do i have microsoft netframe, Are my phone drivers correct. Is the usb cable correctly connected to my computer and phone. Did i choose charge only when connected to the computer.
6) Now on your phone, and this step did it for me, go to Settings>SDandPhoneStorage>FactoryDataReset. Brace yourself this will wipe data it will not change your version. But if you want do a backup the folder of your contacts and whatever you have in your SD card, this is the time to do so. Mount as disk drive, and remember to change back to CHARGE ONLY. I skipped this because rooting was more important than my girlfriends phone number.
7) Now youre noobiness is ready connect phone double check Step 5. In case you missed something.
8) Run the simple root downloaded from XDA forum. Wait for it to push files is wont take long but me patient. Think of it passing 180mb to sd card so it takes some time.
9) Phone will reboot in a screen with skating androids Push power button and WAIT. It will find file and you shouldnt be getting "main version older" reboot error you where getting if you paid close attention to detail. Now update push volume up.
10) Why so impatient wait for it to update files. Once its down just push volume up for reboot. First time it reboots after root or when u flash a rom it usually takes longer, enough to get u nervous but dont be WAIT.
11) Easy sailing now but youre not done yet. Hit recovery once your phone reboot. Choose the method you want i chose Clockwork it works just fine for flashing roms.
12) Congrats your fully root and can flash that cool rom youve been reading about. Suggestions: DamageControl or Cyanogen but go ahead and try whichever you like.
13) YOURE DONE WOOF
If for some reason, it happened to me with AvaFroyo, when you flash your rom it goes on a loop and keeps rebooting dont panic that is what the recovery is for just put your microSD on a card reader delete the rom that is giving you problem and place another one and Reflash. Read how to flash rom you have to wipe on Recovery menu everytime you flash a different rom.
I hope this helps...Its in plain english not Dev English so...

[q] come on!!!!! One simple root evo!??!

Come on people.. i know there is someone out there.. that can do something to simply CLICK ONE button and get the EVO ROOTED..!!! I KNOW There is several out there.. but they all say Not supported for EVO.. because blah blah blah.. lol..
NOW COME ON.. I KNOW U GUYS ARE SMART.. I just want mine to be rooted with one click..

If you aren't confident that you can follow a few easy steps to root your EVO, then you're better off not rooting it at all. Ever.

Confidence is key, even my scary a$$ did it lol
Swyped from my HTC EVO 4G via xda app

Demanding things from devs is not smart thats why the epic has so few devs left. you want it you do itz, ASK if someone can, or get over it all the rooting methods on here are very simple
Sent from my unrEVOked using xda app

A friend of mine rooted his Evo yesterday by himself, and he knows so little about these phones, that he had to call me during the process to ask me how to check if USB debugging was enabled on his phone.
If he can do it.....TRUST ME.....so can you. lol

it does looks super easy.. and im sure i could do it.. but im just scared..lmao.. but i know ill do it one of this days.. just say.. **** IT.. lol it would be better to be an app with just one button to do it..

The thing is that pretty much anything you do with root is going ot be far more dangerous than the actual rooting process. If you can't handle rooting you probably won't want to do anything else. (with the exception of one or two apps)
Flashing themes, or new ROMS or anything else will **** your phone up if you're not careful, far more easily than the fairly simple rooting procedure will.
And really - I used a three click rooting method. Is three clicks that much more scary than one?

the root process is copy and paste easy the devs have tried to make it easy as possible so start thanking them and not demanding they work hard to even have a root for the phone let it go its easy copy and paste lol not that hard to read a guide that is made very simple if you are not comfatable rooting then dont try it at all because ones you root u need a custom rom cant be scared dude there is almost a fix for everthing exspecially if you ask the devs nicaly they will guide you throu problems i have only seen one brick that could not be fixed and that was i did it on purpose installed a wroung bootloader on 2.02

stop being a baby ! lol and do it

What do you mean ill need a new custom rom before i root it?

Quick question? Why are you rooting your evo? If you have no good reason, you really shouldn't.

simple root 1click 4 evo
i have been on the fence on wether i should root or not and i think i am ready to root my evo. i have been doing some research and it looks like i have two options that would be best. i could dowload the sdk and root my phone that way or i could download the ota simple root 1click version 1.47.651.1. i saw a video on the simple root that had 4 clicks and then you had to go to extras and flash a recovery. it all seamed pretty simple but when i went to download the ota simple root file, instead of giving me 4 buttons it only gave me 2. it said it was the lastest version and so i went with it. i clicked the root button and it pulled up the command box and started doing it thing but after pushing the files it said that the adb was outdates and it was killing it got an error and it tried again went to pushing the pc36 said the adb was out of date again and gave error then continued to push the flash file os somthing like that.... and again it said adb out of date killing but gave error tried again and again and again... ect. until it went to red screen telling me when my phone screen had skating adroid men on it push power button to reboot and so on..... push any key to continue but phone never went to screen with android men. went over the whole process again and this time when red screen came up i did a factory reset and still nothing happened except for when it got to my home screen it said please wait while loading my take awhile then went to white screen with just htc and then back to home screen. i know this seems like a lot but the more thorough the better. can anyone help or point in the right direction? THANK YOU!!!

Im stupid stuck on the first step and Ive been at it for a week now, I just want to Root, then Ill never need to PC plug the phone again.
The problem is my Evo 4G ONLY connects to the pc to charge. Ive tried fixes, sorry, Ive wasted time on fixes and help posts; I did just successfully install 3.29.651.5IMG.zip from

Anything Terminal Emulator, HBOOT or RECOVERY I can do, thanks for the help, google searching is pulling up all androids, allphone models, all Dates, I keep getting 2009 results.
ALSO, to anyone interested in Metro Flash, the 10 dollar phone flashing service from Metro PCS; in Nevada, found out yesterday, MetroFlash isnt available because the setup or network is/are changing or something. I forgot the specifics, but the rep said that even if I went and did it in CA, it wouldnt work in NV because of that.

Do you have HTC Sync downloaded to your cpu. IF you don't you need to, so that you will have the drivers that you need to start the process.

I tried versions 2.something and the version on the htc support site, thanks though.

And you are sure you are downloading the correct version. Are you on windows? 32bit? 64bit? Mac? All of that matters so you D/L the correct version otherwise your cpu will not recognize your phone and install the drivers. If its not doing that then it has to be that you aren't having the drivers installed correctly.

I've had a bad USB cable be the culprit of my computer not recognizing my phone. Mine would say "unrecognized USB device" though.
I would try another cable and report back.

Dude i friggin LOVE the help, but the port on the phone is screwed. i actually came back to elaborate on my response; Ive downloaded Most of what I could to ADB if it were working- JDK, Android SDK full, super 1 click, autoroot, unrevoked3, and several RUUs. Initially I followed directions, after nothing working, I experimented. Then I did a faulty usb port search, and all of the suggestions were 'unplug and replug' and such. Its defected.

Spencer my computer isnt responding at all to the USB plug, but thats what posts said, it could be the port or the cord or the pc usb port/hub. its my phone.

Oooooooh, well you're probably looking for help in the wrong place. You need to take the phone for repair. But I did see a thread on here someone posted about how to root without using a computer, but I didn't actually open it to see what the process was. Maybe that will help you out.

You know what Swaze, Im un and re-installing right now, its HTC Sync SETUP 3.0.551, the other was htc sync2.0.35. Be back after the reboot.
-Went into SERVICES too, Id 'manualed' a few items that I hadnt considered..
I didnt answer either, but I have win7 32 and 64bits installed on this pc, Ive been on the 32bit since the first day.
--And that wasnt it. I was hopeful it was the windows COM thing id disabled.

Try mailing the files to u then use a file explorer to move where u want them. Unless ur using an ruu I don't think u actually need connection.
If I remember right unrevoked has set it up where u can do everything. from your phone using a web site. Maybe I'm wrong.

Do you have USB Debugging enabled on the phone?

sand thats actually something worth trying, use a root file explorer to copy/paste the flash-image files since I dont have S-Off. Nice, thanks dude.

This will probably sound like the dumbest idea EVER but why can't you just buy a card reader and put the images on the SDCard the old fashioned way? Seems easy enough to me, am I missing something? Also couldn't use just copy the files over using your DropBox? Thats how I do it.
or how about WiFi Explorer? its an app in the market lets you browse and copy files to your SDCard via WiFi.

sand thats actually something worth trying, use a root file explorer to copy/paste the flash-image files since I dont have S-Off. Nice, thanks dude.

Update- Root Manually
Following Sand's suggestion, I began google searches of the manual root processes, supporting information, etc.
Here's where we're at
I began by copying the flash-image to the proper system folders, using Root Explorer, File Expert works too. If you copy files to system/protected folders with an ordinary file manager, the permissions fail.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-918275.html
So, the next step was to learn how to chmod to 775, for those lost READ THIS, its a nice guide on linux permissions and how to set them.

Just updated another post, and this is what I put

ADB Over TCP/IP Help
this was the most recent attempt, Android lacks adhoc support though
ADB For Beginners
Commands like 'cp' and 'cat' are used interchangeably it seems, when I find a fuller command list incorporating more, this one will be replaced
Always Up To Date Root Guide
This is a great place for ideas if you're stuck, theyve put all the verified instruct-files on one page. I guess thats what moderators on forum sites do, consolidate information, this was just easy to read without weeding through any unrelated information
Evo 4G Root/Android Root
This was another promising page I came across, but the the 300mb zip failed installation. 'Main Version is Older', all the files in the zip were for like 1.0 and my Evo's radio is 2.15. Changing the Android-info.text in rom .zips to match my devices information was my next idea. Do not do it though, scanning google result lines said it could brick your android.
Visionary, No ADB
This is last because it was a bastard, long story short its not even for the Evo. The jerk.
Updated Again - ADB over Tcp/Ip Works, How to Root?
I was tethering when I found the Adb over wifi so I didnt test it- shouldve though. I connect now cmd tells me, but the 1 step rooters arent working. Before I waste another weeks chasing bad paths, what should I use?

After wasting so much time with your issue, why haven't you used the time to get the phone fixed/replaced?

I had similar issues when I rooted my phone. My phone kept disconnecting while the rooting process was taking place. The issue I found out was my USB cord. I went to the Sprint store and got a new one, then my computer (W7) detected my phone through disk drive.
The new cord worked, using the AutoRoot program found in the rooting section here, and it completed my root.

I hadnt thought of that

SteveGrandRapids, youre a fricken GENIUS. Or an ass; I dont have Sprint. From another of my posts asking the same question:
''Uminchu I wish the problem was the port or plug. Then again if it were, the original owner wouldnt have sold it to me. My friend has had this phone sprint serviced twice, once at best buy when we thought it was the powermat malfunctioning. third time he just got a new phone, now I have this one and metro pcs; an account that Ive had for years now and have flashed two other phones to.

Thanks for the pollution.

My friend has had this phone sprint serviced twice, once at best buy when we thought it was the powermat malfunctioning. third time he just got a new phone, now I have this one and metro pcs; an account that Ive had for years now and have flashed two other phones to. ''
Thanks for the pollution.
