Clockwork recovery after UnrEVOked. Help!

I rooted my Evo last night with no problem and then decided to risk taking chances modding. I ended up replacing the HTC lockscreen with the vanilla one! However, I ended up trying to do a clockwork mod (the one that has the battery number on the top) and now my phone is in bootloop. I can't get my computer to recognize the phone now to download something on it. Anyone know of a way around this?

You should be able to pull the battery and be able to boot right back to recovery. Did you try that? Loops are POST recovery override so I would guess you haven't tried this yet?

Yes i'm in recovery but everytime I try to recover it goes into clockwork recovery and bootloops again. My laptop doesn't recognize the phone either.

Have you tried "fastboot?"

Yeah I did and I keep getting the error message "Connection failed" on my laptop. I'm on Windows 7

Thanks for taking the time to help me btw

Have you tried a different USB port? Strangely, sometimes Windows gets picky with a particular port / phone combo... and then choosing a different port often fixes connection failures.
Also, did you try factory resetting the phone as well? Like... clear storage... followed by full wipe?

Yeah I tried to reset factory but it resets it right into "Clockwork recovery." Trying to change ports now.

Yeah my main problem is I downloaded that mod and I need to get the phone back to how it was when I first used the Unrevoked 3.2

try booting to fastboot... then reboot your PC... then use a previously unused USB port... switch things around if you have to.

Actually... I have another idea...
IF you have unrevoked forever on there, I am guessing this should work...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764062&highlight=amon_RA
that thread shows how to easily get switched to amon_RA from clockwork essentially in one easy step... but it requires that you push the img file.. which you are mentioning you cannot do... BUT... if you have a card reader/writer, you can pop your micro SD card out of the phone and into a reader/writer and put the img file in its root... along with a ROM of choice. then boot to the phone and it will automatically ask you if you want to restore the image file. say yes and you will be loaded up with amon!! amon is better. once you have that on there, pull the pcimg36 file off and flash the ROM that you picked from your amon recovery.
does this make sense? if not i can try to give better detail.

Okay this worked! What rom should I download? I would like one that has the Vanilla lock screen and then i'll look into Nan unlocking after that. Thank you so much again. I haven't gotten anywhere until that post

Roms, oh the many choices

Cyanogenmod6 is simply the best, but it is VERY buggy at best and needs and unlock, which you don't have. I like Ava v7 because of it's simplicity and stability. A lot of people like evio and baked snack though. I don't know why. I don't personally.

[Q] md5 misfit issues

hi all.ok,im a noobish flasher !!!! (lol) i have tried several of the roms etc and i make clockworkmod nandroid backups regular,all of a sudden i am no longer able to restore my nandroid backups due to keep getting md5 misfit i have not changed the name of the folder or anything like that they are put onto my p.c for safe keeping so as to just drag and drop later. i have change the size of the partition on the sd since nandroid back-ups so would this cause the md5 issues ?? i think i might be using a newer rom manager than previous too but why would this affect the nandroid stuff !!!

md5 issues
nobody !!!!!!

what happens if instead of rom manager, you restore through hboot?

ephbee
hi, ive give up and have now accepted that i have lost my original network rom.im still learning this stuff so ive never tried the hboot thing, i just installed wildpuzzle and my phone is working ok.ive still got the rom saved as a backup just in case i get any joy or answers of how to overcome the md5 issue. really annoying though.

Check here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=714114

hi,cheers for the link.too complicated for me all that adb stuff so just gonna keep my trust with the dev roms.using wildpuzzle now since start of feb and its fine for what i use my phone for. regards slymobi.

hi again.ok im not clued up with adb but i have got terminal emulator on my phone. can you give me instructions on how i could try the method in the link you gave me but by using terminal emulator instead of adb ??? like i said its not a must to fix but would be nice to revert back to my orignal three network installed crap if needed. i appriciate your help and replies. regards chris (slymobi)

While I do not know whether it will work using the Android Terminal (Don't use Terminal much. Prefer using ADB), I would recommend you read up some ADB tutorials. There are loads of them, and really, ADB is a must-have, and, not complex at all.

[Q] HELP please w/ Autoroot 2.2

I've read everything I can get my hands on...
All of my phone's software versions are identical to the one's in the Autoroot You tube video. I did a factory reset, and began the process. About 2/3 of the way through, mine stayed stuck on the red triangle while the one in the video rebooted, continued, and finished. I'm attaching the log for the experts to please tell me what I did wrong!?!?
Also, while my phone is running at the moment, it has much older versions of everything now... 2.1, build 1.17.651.1..., kernel 2.6.29... ???? It was ALL up to date before I started.
Could someone please provide a detailed step by step process of where to go from here?
Thank you all so much!!

Personally, no experience with auto root, but I personally suggest unrevoked. But it seems to have partially flashed something.
If you wish to try auto root again, I would suggest rebooting your phone, and the make sure no apps are running, and temporarily stop things on your computer [could cause interference] and then try it again...

Thank you so much for the quick reply. I'm so confused!!!!
Can I use unrevoked with all of the old software on my evo now?? I have been trying to use the software updates in settings to get it back where it was (2.2, 3.7, etc...) but it says my phone is up to date. So I guess I'm asking,
A) - will unrevoked work with:
2.1-update 1
baseband 1.36.00.04.02
kernel 2.6.29-ac94cf60
build 1.17.651.1
B) - if it will work, will I get all of my newer versions of everything back?

That is the engineering firmware you have on there, if you restart your computer and try again it should finish it up.

Ok, I restarted the computer and ran the autoroot batch again. It seemed to blaze through the first part of it like it was picking up where it left off. However, the log keeps repeating (8 times)-
"daemon still not runningerror: cannot connect to daemon"
The phone is stuck on the red triangle with the "!". Now what??
Again, thank you guys so much. You are earning your beer money!!

So I download this, install it, and try the process again? I've noticed there are two versions of htc sync floating around. One is 3.0 that is only 1 month old from I believe the European htc site and the other is 2.0 from htc.com. Does it matter which one I have?

I can, I just need to know if it says s-on.
To get to the bootloader, turn the phone off. While turning it back on, hold the vol+down key till you come to the white screen with androids on skateboards.

I also suggest running Unrevoked, if you're looking for a 'one click' type of root method. I've used it numerous times, and had no problems. These instructions, if followed to the T, will get you rooted up. (that is if you aren't s-off already, which it doesn't sound like you are)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787304
I would probably run an RUU, to put you back to stock, before trying to run Unrevoked, if that's what you decide to go with. You can find an RUU or PC36IMG here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060&highlight=hboot-0.97+ruu
You run the RUU from your computer. You just need to make sure you have HTC Sync installed, on your computer.
And don't worry, teh roxx and I will get you fixed up!

His instructions are good; I'd have said the same thing, and we will get ya rooted successfully. Just to had to the htc sync note, after you install it, you need to uninstall it [just the program] because it causes problems with unrevoked; you only need the drivers it installs.

You're welcome, glad you got the drivers set up and you got root! Nice. There are soo many different awesome ROMs man. If you like AOSP, you have CM7, SalvageMod1.1, Savaged Zen, Evervolv, etc. I like them all, when I'm in an AOSP mood. They are all fully functional, fast, and have good support. If you like sense, or senseless, I like Myn's RLS5, MikFroyo, Koni's ES, and definitely VaelPak. Honestly, it depends on what pleases your eye, and what type of features you're looking to have. You really can't go wrong, and it may take a little experimentation to find the perfect ROM / kernel combo. It's fun trying to find the perfect combo, going on flash binges, haha! Take care, and have fun flashing ROMs. Remember to always do a full wipe (data/factory reset, cache, dalvik cache, and flashing calk's formatall.zip) before flashing a rom. Always wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing anything else. Remember to keep a current and good working backup of your system, before you flash anything 'major', such as themes, mods, kernels etc. You'll be good to go.

Universal ROOT in 3 steps - Level: Asian

While searching for a method to root the JB build for the yarvik tablet of my family (usual methods have not been successful), i stumbled upon the following Windows based method that now i want to share and should work with a lot more devices:
On your PC:
1. Install USB/ADB drivers from your manufacturer's website
2. Install & connect via http://www.moborobo.com Management Tools, loads own device specific ADB-drivers
3. Download & install this Chinese piece of software from http://www.shuame.com/en/root/
Further steps obsolete, because they're offering an english Root-Tool now.
But for the sake of completion, they will remain here:
In case you don't understand what you do:
- On Website press blue download-button with arrow pointing downwards
- During Installation uncheck every checkbox except the one that grays out the next-button upon unchecking
the download has been a bit slow for me (10kb/sec), if it fails or the take it offline: drop a comment, perhaps i can share the setup file somehow
4. On your device: turn on USB-debugging
On your PC:
5. Run Moborobo Software, then plug your device to USB-Port, wait until Moborobo has recognized it (in my case i had to click some dialogues...)
6. Run freshly installed software from Shuame.com (titled Ë¢»ú¾«Áé in my start menu)
7. When shuame-Logo appears on your device's screen, head on the windows-software towards the 4th icon in the top row; on the appearing screen click on the 4th icon in the 2nd icon-row (the android with some chinese signs + ROOT as title)
on your device:
8. download SuperUser (or superSU) from Market or install via other sources (if not already done)
9. replace asian root / su files (recognized as older versions) with newer ones by SuperUser or superSU
10. delete 2 chinese shuame-APKs from /system/apps directory or uninstall via Titanium Backup
11. => you're done.
if more than 10 People complain they can't find the right button's to click
then i'm willing to post a few screenshots...
else: have fun!

Hello,
Bit of feedback on your guide. Could benefit other Slate users
First I tried only using my adb drivers and skipped Moborobo, but I got a blank screen with what looks to be half of the right side of the notification bar is darker. So I rebooted and all was well.
I used Moborobo and it found my device and I used Shuame and it looked to be going well until I reached the point of encryption. So the software says press the right so I do and then it rebooted. There was no root and on screen it is asking me to press the blue button again as the green bar was only half so I did. This then put me on a boot loop. I booted into recovery and rebooted to system. It worked. So the screen was still spinning trying to do something and then out of no where it rebooted and same again with the darker area. So I unplugged and rebooted and it worked. I got root.
Now just for the tricky part of removing these Chinese files lol.
Good guide mate. Thank you very much.

Now just for the tricky part of removing these Chinese files lol.
Good guide mate. Thank you very much.

Well that's a problem for me, if i get that ..( i got black screen twice, I thanked god it wasn't bricked, and decided to not try it again... Lucky third? Either bricked or rooted, not going to give it a go ) )

If you follow what I did mate you will get root. Its scary but I got it in the end. Its safe to use.. as long as you get in recovery you can save your device.
I have the problem of adding in English SuperUser. When I do and install binary I loose root.
Could someone detail how to do this correctly please? I will still be searching and trying.
