Successfully I downgraded Evo from 2.2 to 2.1 android. and I want to upgrade it a gin to 2.2.
not only downgraded but also rooted 2.1 Android.
I get error message Error code: 1012
and when I download the official 2.2 it prosed but after a while its stuck!
what to do?
Can you help me to updated the rooted evo 2.1 to the official 2.2 please?
You need to make sure that nand is unlocked. Do Simple Root found in the dev forums or complete Part 2 of Toast's How to Root Guide also in the dev forums.

if you used the unrevoked way for both root and forever then you can't upgrade, you can download the ota all you want, but it will not install, which leads me to believe those of us who rooted this way will never be able to except a ota, so we might have to just rely on custom ROM's, which are better anyways.
I'd recommend Netarchy's HTC OTA Froyo 2.2 final build, and don't forget a custom kernel as well to go with that to make it really perform, also recommend Netarchy's 4.1.9 cfs kernel.

All of the instructions are in the forums. Read and follow the steps. You need to put in some of your own effort. No one is going to do it for you.

Check out this link http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever
Check out the section labeled "Reinstalling an official recovery" and it tells you what you need to do to install OTA Roms.
Give me a thumbs up if this helps.

In my sig, you can find a detailed guide for upgrading using Unrevoked Forever + the official OTA.

it's really easy with installing roms, they all come with instructions, which are clear and simple, mostly just boot into recovery once you get that taken care of, do a factory data wipe, and install rom that is stored on your sd card in the download file, once you do it, you see how easy and simple it is, just make a nandroid backup first before doing the factory reset IMO.

I have perm root & rom manager(both of them)and when i select flash clockwork recovery a red triangle over a phone image appears on the screen and stays until i pull the battery. what am i doing wrong ? please help.
thanks in advance.
Update Rom Manager.
I just would like to ask since this is posted in the development section and not the q/a or general section, what does this have to do with android development for the g2

Uninstall your old rom manager because it doesnt support g2, download the new one, flash clockwork mod-select g2 as your device- wait for it to download and flash he recovery. Btw i would suggest you click fix permissions first before doing any of that

just like others said, make sure you have the latest rom manager (i believe its v2.5.0.7). are you seeing a "G2" option when you click flash clockwork recovery?
clockwork mod for noob
I finaly decide to root my G2( and S-Off ). So I use CyanogenWiki procedure without section about Flashing the Engineering HBoot with is denger and optional.Next I was uninstall no need stock soft (mp3 amazon finance or listen).Today I try to backup everything with clockwork mod.
1. Is the procedure with ROM Manager safe?
2.Do i need to do something else after geting perma root and s-off to install clockwork mod ? (still don't know what for is Engineering HBoot)
3. After instaling clockwork mod or after rooting I will stop geting official updates ?
4. Do i have to buy a prem version of ROM Manager or free market version will do the job ?
5. How to flash clockwork v3 and is there reason to do that ?

Lots of q's
Ok
1.Clockwork mod is very safe
2.No. If you have Perma-rooted your phone you are good to go
3.After installing it you can receive OTA updates if you are using STOCK rom
but its best to not update via OTA at risk of losing root. I was already had
temp root when we got the OTA in US and I had no problem but be warned
4.The free version is fine. But its always good to buy the paid version for added benefits and to help dev out

Sometimes it takes a couple of times before recovery sticks, so if you get the red triangle just reflash the recovery again untill it sticks.

Eng. Hboot is not required to flash a custom rom, but obviously perm-root is. Im guessing you got that quote "Perm Root with hboot-eng.....is needed to flash a custom ROM (still REQUIRED for the moment)" from the CM7 Nightly thread, but there is a way to flash CWM3 without an ENG. Hboot ( it requires terminal emulator) and also the CM7 nightly rom.
Any idea how to install CM7 from stock less risky way then hboot ? How about flashing CM 6 and upgrading to 7 ?

If the HBOOT required comment was for just CWM3, then there are guides already out there (including one stickied in this forum):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=900460
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=902493
Then just use CWM3 to flash CM7 like normal...
Absolutly right. Thx for links. Am a noob.

Hi!
I've seen some treads on this topic but couldn't find an answer (a big newbie here )
.
The problem is: I flashed a rom twice (HD revolution) and everything is fine. But now I wanted to flash to 3.0 but the rom manager doesn't work as when I try to flash clockworkmod recovery, the superuser always force closes and that's it
Can anyone help?
I am sotry but I do need more or less a step by step description (as I said a newbie )
J
Any more information to give as im just trying to figure out your next steps.....if you can flash roms you should be good to go.....try using clockword mod to fix permissions and download titanium and install busybox through the problems tab in the app.....
Of course
So, I did a root in January, then put on the Adroid Revolutions2.0.8
after a while I upgraded the 2.0.8 with 2.0.11
+ I changed the radio (again using the step by step receipe on this site) toRadio_12.35d.60.140f_26.06.03.24_M2.
The first time flashing the rom and the second time I hade no problems.
The thing is also that I downloaded a program to tell me what my root status is and it says The phone is not rooted?! Is that possible?
I thopught once you root it's rooted for always?
Should I root again?

If your using a custom rom, you already have a custom recovery, just take your battery out, when you put it bk in hold the volume down and power key, at the bootloader menu, choose recovery.

Problem solved.
Can you just tell me the thing about rooting?
Do you have a rooted telephone once you rooted it, forever?

No, once rooted, you will loose root if you flash an unrooted rom, 99.9% of custom roms are rooted though, as long as you have a custom recovery you can always flash another rom.

Hey everyone,
I plan on flashing CM9 for a friend. I just want to make sure that I have all the steps properly put together before I take the plunge. I rock an Epic Touch 4G and it is always hard when coming to a new device since you have to wade through all the deprecated and useless info in tons of threads to find out what you really need to do. Also, since I currently have a Samsung device, these processes are worlds apart... I used to have a couple differnt HTC devices... Anyways, I just want to make sure that the following is right before I do this for him. He is on a COMPLETELY STOCK rom. Not rooted, most recent HTC updates, HBOOT .98, etc. From what I can gather, this is what I need to do. Please correct me if I am wrong:
1) Downgrade HBOOT to .97 following this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1298990&highlight=downgrade
2) Flash CWM and gain S-Off by following this (Revolutionary):
http://revolutionary.io/
3) Install SuperUser, BusyBox and Rooted Kernel following this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160745
4) Flash CM9 and GAPPS
5) Profit???
Thanks everyone! Like I said, his phone is completely stock and I just want to make sure I have this all correct before we start on the process!
Thanks again!

I just flashed my Inc 2, I didn't do step 3 except for flashing the newest kernel. I think you only need to do those steps if you want root the stock rom. Superuser came installed once I flashed CM9.
Good luck.

Hello,
I got 2 Sloans from ebay that I had to do this procedure on https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unbrick-root-twrp-fire-tv-2-sloane.3986303/ in order to get them up and running and they are, they are now running latest rooted rom from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/firetv-2-sloane-prerooted-stock-images-5-2-7-6_r1.3309783/ .
Which is great ! thank you XDA once again !
But I want to unroot and run latest stock rom which seems to be 5.2.8.0 (671761720). I tried all procedures to force it to update OTA, but it refuses and always says up to date.
Also reason for unrooting is some apps like peacock just refuse to work...
From what I understand I can just flash the stock unrooted rom via TWRP, but for the life of me I can not find the stock roms, or even a rooted latest ROM.
Any help is really appreciated ! TIA

Hi,
I would recommend you to use this procedure now that you have TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-firetv-2-sloane.4222331/
After that, flash any of this ROMs through the NEW recovery: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/unlock-root-twrp-unbrick-firetv-2-sloane.4222331/#post-84353191

Really appreciate the reply. I tried the first link, and that didnt help, but I see the links to the original firmware so i might just try to install it via recovery.
I was able to unroot by flushing one of those roms and recovery is gone now as well. But it still does not go to the latest firmware... weird.
