Hi,
I followed the method to root 2.2 (it came installed on my Evo) in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765496
It appeared to work perfectly, when I look in my list of apps, I see superuser permissions...
However, every time I try to install CM6, I get this error:
assert failed: getprop("ro.bootloader") == "0.76.2000"; assert failed: getprop("ro.bootloader") == "0.79.0000";
I am running bootloader 0.93.0000 with S-OFF.
Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong and what I need to do to fix it. I have searched and searched, and spent several hours trying to figure this out before asking for help.
Thanks...

Flash an eng-bootloader.
Should be the mtd-eng.img in toast's root method. Just follow the instructions specific to that file.

Hi there,
i need a little help.
i have rooted my HTC Desire (Froyo hboot 0.93) with ClockworkMod..
and now i want to place a fresh new ROM with the ClockWork Recovery.
But it wont work it always said:
assert failed: file_getprop( fingerprint.somethingelse )
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
ive tested with Authentification On and Off with no success
i have had that happen to me
your provider wouldnt happen to be us cellular would it? do you know if your phone is CDMA?, because every time i have tried to install a new rom from here i get that same exact same error message and think its because my phone is through us cellular and its cdma, its just a matter of waiting for some one to make a custom rom
Moved to general as not development.
Please don't make new threads in development with questions or user support issues.
I've been searching the forums and can't find a fix for this.
I had been running CM 6.0 but hated it. The day the news that 2.2 was dropping I decided to unroot my phone. I used these instructions to unroot
Code:
theunlockr.com/2009/08/22/how-to-unroot-your-mytouch-3g/
After that I followed these instructions to update to froyo:
Code:
intomobile.com/2010/11/04/install-android-2-2-1-froyo-mytouch-3g-tmobile/
Problem is, the second update fails like this:
Code:
"Verifying package update ...
Installing update...
assert failed:file_getprop("/system/build.prop", "ro.build.fingerprint") == "tmobile/opal/sapphire/sapphire:1.6/DMD64/21415:user/ota-rel-keys,realease-keys" ||
file_getprop("system/build.prop",, "ro.build.fngerprint") == "t-mobile/opa;/sapphire/sapphire:2.2.1/FRG83/60505:user/release-keys"
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted."
I have no idea what any of this means. Apparently something is missing... If anyone can guide me through what I need to do, I'd be one happy camper!
You've posted in the wrong section. This is the myTouch Slide's section not the myTouch 3g.
Black myTouch Slide w/stock rom

Turns out I had to downgrade to be able to upgrade. I downgraded back to 2.1 and then flashed Myns ROM over that and all is right again. What a pain in the neck.
Help, help help.
I searched, I followed a number of other threads on this issue, installed busybox manually, nothing is helping. Please please please please help.
My old evo got stolen. I got a new one today. I was able to root, but i keep seeing the same error every time I try to flash Myn's ROM, please anyone help. I've downloaded the RLS 4 file from both mirrors, it's fine. I flash it and I get the following error:
E:cant symlink /system/xbin/[
E:failure at line 15:
symlink busybox system:xbin:[
install aborted.
I have:
S-OFF
HBOOT-2.02.0000
Radio 2.15.00.09.01
I am using Amon-RA recovery and all seems to be fine UNTIL I try to flash the RLS4 Myn ROM.
I can't get past the symlink errors. I have followed numerous threads' advice on correcting the error and even have verified that ls -al shows all the correct symlinks. Anyone please help. Is there more than one busybox to install?
I found two and don't know which one is correct:
busybox which is 523k
busybox which is 719 k in the Autoroot zip.
PLEASE, I'm desperate, anyone please help me get this installed.
Thank you in advanced.
Which Aman Ra are you using?? You must have 1.9 if your hboot 2.02, 1.8 won't work. IF you have 1.9, why don't you try a different rom to see if it loads and then put the one on you want after you test it. If you need 1.9 I believe you can find it in the Fly a Kite root method.

thank you for the response, I did a search for fly a kite root method and can't find it anywhere, can you point me in the right direction to find this?
Thank you in advance.
I did some searching, this thread was updated and I had to use google OUTSIDE of XDA to find it as it was renamed. it's now:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045
and says very specifically:
UPDATE: If your radio is 2.15.00.11.19 this will not work. Some people says it does if you run the official ruu (which is in the unroot portion of this guide) So if you want to try it.
So, I'm trying the official ruu. I have root, but nothing else seems to work. IF anyone can offer some more advice, I would be very grateful.
PLEASE someone help. When I try to use the official RUU in the post above I get to the part where it says i have less than 30% battery and won't update. I KNOW I don't have less than 30% battery, I looked at the battery in another device and it's fully charged.
I can't get ANYTHING to work on this thing, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me flash a ROM, I only get to the white evo screen and recovery is NOT working, what do I do?
PLEASE anyone help.

Few things. As clavoi said, make sure you have the proper hboot drivers installed. You can find them on the unrevoked website where it says "more info".
here are instructions on how to properly install the drivers http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=787304
those instructions are a little old, but they are still the correct procedure, I just did this last weekend for my brother in law's evo, just make sure you have the correct drivers from the Unrevoked site itself. Also, be sure that anything that communicates with your phone via usb is uninstalled or disabled. (htc sync, dropbox, pda net, etc, anything that can/will communicate). Also disable your antivirus.
I just did this last weekend and it worked great. Try again after your sure you have the drivers installed correctly and that no programs are trying to talk to your phone during this process. Report back on your progress man
Folks, i'll make sure i have the correct drivers loaded once i get home today, thanks for the heads up on this.
i will report back once i do.
Folks, i just loaded my hboot drivers last night and then tried running unrevoked and got the following message:
Failed to unlock nand flash.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
What hardware version?

I need help. I rooted my EVO and I followed the two steps for unrooting. I have the S-ON. I flashed the PC36IMG.ZIP. It failed stating that "main version is older". Am I missing a step? I rooted the Evo again and followed the two steps for unrooting and still getting the same message. It recognizes the zip file and loads but states that "Failed. Main version is older". Help please.

Just make sure that once you're unrooted, you don't take the OTA (unless you don't care about getting rooted again) There is currently no root exploit for the new OTA.
