Okay, so I rooted my phone before 2.2. I'm going to try and root my friend's phone as well, but he's using 2.2 Android. Is the steps still the same? There's the unrevoked method. Is that the same as rooting and NAND unlocking? Will I have unrevoke and then do the rooting process?
Unrevoked is a one click full root and nand unlock. The one thing it does not give you that regular root does is engineering hboot .76, which is semi necessary. So run unrevoked 3.2.1 and flash the hboot that can be found in one of the first few pages of the dev section and it's like you just put in hours of work in 10 minutes. Btw, you can't root 2.2 the same as 2.1. Its much harder. That's why people use unrevoked.

Question on this. I rooted with the unrevoked method with 2.2 and when i type in cd /data/app-private into the terminal emulator on the phone i get nothing. Then when i try to verify nand in recovery nothing happens. I downloaded unrevoked3 and that's it no pc36img or anything. Did i miss a step? I'm on a Mac and i have 2.2. I
Can tether and use rom manager, titanium backup, root manger, and superuser permissions. But Im afraid to attempt a flash. Can anyone help?

Unrevoked requires no setup on a Mac. U did it right. To verify nand, boot into boot loader and make sure it says s-off on the top line far right. That means you have system access. Now you need engineering .76 boot loader. Will post link if you cant find it.
Also, the command cd never gives you any output. Try flashing a splash screen to prove you have NAND (and to impress your friend) i will give you instructions if you ask nicely... Ha

I need engineering link. Whats splash screen? How do i do that?

thanks for the replies. so the steps are to:
+ unrevoked 3
+ unrevoked forever
+ flash .76 bootloader
+ flash rom
where in these steps can I do a nand backup?
sent via HTC EVO
^before you flash the rom from what i've learned. You want to perform all backups/nand backup before you flash roms because you need to do a complete wipe of the phone... cache, dalvik cache, and data... theres a specific wipe order i read either on here or AC. nandroid backup is supposed to be in the recovery menu. i can't access it because i haven't installed unrevoked forever and .76 bootloader. unrooting unrevoked and using a different method... :/
yeah most likely. Guess I'm going to have to install Amon RA recovery before I flash though.

So I had my Evo rooted through Unrevoked 3 and attempted to use Unrevoked forever to gain full Root and NAND unlock. Well after 2 attempts, I get the S-Off up top but still can not flash unsigned ROMS such as Cyanogens CM6. I've searched up and down and can not figure this out for the life of me. Any help would be appreciated.
Use Toast's method for NAND unlock (it's part two of his two part method) and follow the steps to completion. After that, wipe and flash CM6. It's what I did. Worked perfectly. BTW, I think this should be posted in Q&A. So you know next time.
EDIT: Also, if you looked at the first 1-15 pages of the [Guide] How to root Froyo or w/e the thread it called, you would have found your solution. Look harder next time.

Hey I appreciate the reply and apologize if I misposted this thread.
The only question I have is if this method is compatible with what I have already done to my phone? And secondly, when I use the method you suggested, do I start at part 2?
Again, big thanks in advance:]
Or you can just flash the ENG bootloader using the package from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752832. If you've already done Unrevoked Forever, doing that should let you install Cyanogen.

Yeah. I used the OTA Froyo root that was just released and had tried flashing CM6 RC2 afterwards and got a message notifying me it couldn't be done. I spoke to jiqqaman and he suggest to start at part 2 of Toast's method. The reason for that is part 1 is the root, which you've already done, and the second is for NAND unlock, which you need. Also because Unrevoked isn't a true NAND unlocker. After you finish the steps Toast has, you can go ahead and wipe, flash, and reboot. Make sure to flash the latest radios as well. You can find those in another thread somewhere around here that says All Radios or something. Should check second or third page.
Unrevoked Forever is a NAND unlocker. It's just that Cyanogen checks for the ENG bootloader, which Unrevoked Forever doesn't supply. You can easily flash the ENG bootloader after you've done Unrevoked Forever and then not have to worry about trying to update your PRI.

this method didnt work for me. i was unrevoked forever, and flashed the .zip package and now i cant get my custom rom to boot from recovery, it kicks me back to hboot menu. where did i go wrong?
I have created a package that will flash the ENG hboot and RA recovery in one flash.
DL it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=764062
Follow the directions on post 28 in that thread to get that flashed, then use the included recovery to flash CM6.

Don't kno what's goin on... but I've followed the directions word for word and it doesnt work for me. Maybe I should try reflashing unrevoked forever and then trying this again?
after you flash unrevoked forever, run toast's part 2 for everything to work right. meaning...
do unrevoked 3 then unrevoked forever
download the PC36IMG.zip that's in toast's part 2 root
put that on the root of your SD card
turn on the phone by holding volume down and power, select yes, and let it flash
once it finishes flashing then you'll be booted into a Sense pre-release test rom
download clockworkmod recovery and put that at the root of your sdcard, rename it to 'recovery.img', also put the flash_image file on toast's part 2 on your sdcard
adb shell to the phone, you should have root access, if not type in 'su'
type this in: 'cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image
chmod 755 /data/flash_image'
type this in: '/data/flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img'
then type in this: 'mv /sdcard/PC36IMG.zip /sdcard/PC36IMG-eng.zip'
turn off the phone, and turn it back on holding the volume down and power buttons
choose recovery and then flash cm6
it's simple if you read through the other posts a bit more thoroughly.
OK guys (and gals) I'm a noob and totally confused myself trying to read 1000s of pages here in the forum. I'm currently running OTA 3.26.651.6 and understand there's a 3.29.****.5 OTA now available. I tried TheBiles idiot proof guide but the link in step 30 is broke. Most of the guides out there seem to be out of date. So I'm looking for some advice from the PROS on which to use and how to use. Remember im a noob so keep it simple. Also is there a glossory about all this like:

ClokWorkMod

unrevoked 3.21
You run it on your computer, plug in your phone, and follow the directions. You get full root and ClockworkMod recovery installed on your phone, as well as unrevoked forever. It's super easy.
Pros:
It's super easy
It gives you full root
It gives you root forever (unrevoked forever)
Takes care of everything (root, custom recovery, "S-OFF" AKA unrevoked forever)
Thoroughly tested
Cross-platform support
You can actually set any custom recovery image you want through the menu
Cons:
You need a computer
sturmen - thanks for the quick reply. Also should i update to OTA 3.29*** before or after (or never) i use this method?
Don't update through Sprint (ever). That's not how we roll around here. You're gonna want to root your phone as it is, then flash a custom ROM. You can tell which ones are based on the latest OTA on that wiki page; flashing one essentially "updates" you to that version. Personally, I recommend Fresh Evo 3.3.0.1 if you like Sense, or CyanogenMod v6.0.0 if you don't.
The biles guide was made a while ago, so it makes sense it is out of date. The best next one, that works, would be regaws method. There is even a mac guide using his method if you have a mac.

Straight from Unrevoked 3.21 RootWiki: here
Does this permanently unlock the NAND flash on my phone?
Yes. The default configuration of this tool disables the phone's security, which also disables the NAND locks placed on the storage by the bootloader. If you choose not to disable security, the /system partition will be read-only after the tool completes.
Using Old Backup's with this?
Here is my question on this. I just recieved my new phone today and I am planning on using this method to root my phone. Before I gave up my old phone I did a Nand backup which has all of my programs my "fresh rom" and ect. on it. Now on the old phone I used the Toast method and nand unlock to root my phone. Will I be able to just do a normal nand restore after I use the unrevoked3 to unlock my new phone? Or do I have to start all over? I checked on the sd card in the Nandroid backup is there. Thank you in advance

I read that the other day, but I kept reading posts stating to run unrevoked forever after unrevoked3 to make it permanent. Was a little confused... I guess unrevoked 3.21 includes unrevoked forever, lots of contradicting posts though.
one thing about that wiki that confuses me is when it talks about .ZIP ROMS, once i use unrevoked can I use Fresh's .ZIP?

Unrevoked 3 was pre-Unrevoked 3.21. That did not do Nand unlock and S-Off and required you to flash Unrevoked Forever to get Nand unlock and S-Off.

.zip ROMs are flashed via recovery. unrevoked should give you CWM recovery, and therefore you should be able to flash ROMs (including Fresh). Make sure you back up, and also wipe data, cache, and dalvik-cache before flashing. If you need help with that, here's a step-by-step:
Have full root with NAND unlock, by unrevoked 3.21 (recommended) or otherwise
Download the ROM you want in .zip format (Go for Fresh!)
Put the .zip into the root of your microSD card
Install Quick Boot from the Market
Use Quick Boot to enter recovery
Go to nandroid, then make a backup
Go to wipe, and wipe data, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik-cache
Select "Flash zip from SD card"
Select the one you downloaded
Let it run
Reboot your phone
Congratulations! You are now part of the cool kids club!
Alternately, purchase ROM Manager Premium which allows you to download, backup, wipe and flash all in one step from within Android and without interacting with recovery. $4.99 and totally worth it.

OK, but what about those of us that don't want a custom ROM? Is there any reliable way of getting from root 3.26 to root 3.29 without a data wipe?
As far as I can tell my best reliable option is:
1) Use Titanium Backup to backup all my apps/settings
2) Use unrevoked3 and the stock 3.29 ROM here to upgrade to 3.29 and regain root
3) Reinstall Titanium and restore my apps/settings
Is this correct, or is there an easier way?

On another Evo which I've helped root, I just downloaded the new 3.29 rooted stock ROM, wiped cache/davlik cache, flash new ROM, reboot, then go back and flash the new radio/PRI stuff and it works without having to wipe phone data.

It is my understanding that as long as you have the same Recovery flashed (Clockwork or Amon RA) as you did on your old phone you should be able to copy the backups to your SD card (maintaining the same directory structure as they were before) and restore them without issue.
If this is in the wrong section, I do apologize. I have a friend who wants me to root his phone for him, but he has done all the OTA updates. Here is the info
Android2.2
Software# 3.29.651.5
Pri version 1.77_003
Prl version 60670
Browser version webkit 3.1
Baseband version 2.15.00.09.01
What is the best method for rooting? I used the Simple Root program to root mine, but I don't think that works on 2.2
Look in the Android Development section for rooting 2.2. It's not nearly as easy as simple root but the instructions are pretty clear and straightforward.

Flash unrevoked 3. 21, reboot, check everything then flash unrevoked forever. But before this flash the latest version of ARMON RA, 1. 8 I think. Afterwards do a android backup FIRST. Then root. Be sure to click the "more " link at the unrevoked site, go through ALL the docs first.

Just so we have this straight. I've already flashed Unrevoked. I have S-Off and Super User and all of that.
You're saying to reflash, Reboot, check and make sure everything is cool.
Then run Unrevoked Forever BEFORE or AFTER runnin AmonRa? In the unrevoked menu I can choose my own recovery shouldn't I just do it there?
After then root again?
Ok brother, 1)Run Unrevoked 3.21 using AmonRa when that is done 2)Make a Nandroid 3)You need to put Unrevoked Forever on your SD card and flash that, its that simple, now you are rooted, S-off, nand unlocked etc....

There is no need to flash unrevoked forever if you root with unrevoked 3.21. It is already included. And if you want confirmation look at the faq for ur3.21.

This. I was about to say the same thing. UnrEVOked 3.21 does 3 things: Root, NAND unlock and S-OFF all in a nice little executable. Once you get that wonderful "Done" on unrevoked's application you are done and can flash away any custom ROM.
I used the old 2 part root method and MY evo has been rooted since June. Now my friend wants his rooted. He has also done all the ota updates. If I do unrevoked 3.21, will I be able to unroot if he ever needs to take his phone back to Sprint ??? I've read a bunch of mixed results.

All,
I've seen lots of info saying that a EVO 4G that came with 2.2 can't be rooted but based on what I'm seeing here that looks to be outdate info? Are you guys saying that unrevoked 3.21 is meant to be used on a EVO that comes with 2.2 or one that was already rooted?? Might be a dumb question but nothing out there clearly states this...
Thanks,
Hello everyone, I'm a newbie here, so go easy on me, OK?
Well, I have (generic) stock HTC 2.2 (2.29.405.5) Desire (GSM), bravo ptv1 ship s-on, hboot - 0.93.0001, radio 5.11.05.27. I rooted it using unrEVOked latest issue on Linux Ubuntu. Rooting went perfectly good, I gained root access and Clockwork recovery.
My question is: how to replace Clockwork recovery with Amon Ra? Wich way is the quickiest and least painful for an average user?
Than you all in advance, cheers!
well, you either must unroot, then while rooting again choose amonra recovery in unrevoked or go S-OFF and flash new recovery image through fastboot
Thanks, I just tried flashing it thru Terminal Emulator, but it gave me error "flash_image: not found", so I guess it has something do to with root access. NMV.
How do I choose Amon Ra recovery for unrEVOked, it only gave me Clockwork? Remember, I'm under Ubuntu, so I can't pick recovery in unrEVOked UI.
no idea how to do that in linux, consider going S-OFF ?
i used CD method, was as easy as rooting, one thing required - a rom without A2SD+ or DATA2xxx

Seconded, s-off by live CD comparable to rooting, and after s-off you can also resize your partition tables and delete unneeded apps whilst booted via Ti backup or root explorer.
Well worth the time!

How are my chances to make a wll worthy paper holder out of phone? And, do I still need to mess with adb after s-off in order to restore funcionality to rom?

After doing it just restore the nandroid you made before starting...
Hi all firstly I just wanna say thanks so everyone that develops and creates amazing stuff for our phones on this site. Right to on to my question, I got my HTC desire a couple months ago, rooted it basically as I got it, with unrevoked, however, I'm still busy considering going s-off and I have a big question, I currently am running cm7 nightly, and clockworkmod 2.5.0.7, which got flashed during the unrevoked process, so my question is, is it safe to s-off with this? Or should I run an ruu first, and if it is safe, should I let alpharev install its custom recovery or not?
I did look around the forums, and couldn't find anything directly related to this, so any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks so much

I had such a mission trying to S-OFF - eventually, after asking around, I realized that the most common problems when trying to S-OFF come from two things:
A) S-OFF when a Gingerbread ROM is installed.
B) S-OFF in a rom that uses Apps2SD or Data2SD.
Eventually, I just downloaded a 2.2 RRU that had Root and S-OFF'd from that. Worked like an absolute charm. Don't worry, once you're S-OFF you can then flash a Gingerbread, Apps2SD ROM - but prior to this, rather use a stock, 2.2 rooted ROM. Unfortunately I can't remember where I downloaded it from, but it was from XDA. The filename was Bravo_WWE_2.29.405.5_v5.zip
Don't forget to familiarize yourself with Android SDK and Fastboot. Cyanogen have a fantastic Wiki on it: *can't get the full link, Internet is being lame. http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/ and search for Fastboot.*
edit: Found the link in my Download History - http://www.multiupload.com/SAEPLNMOG7
ok thanks, quick thing, RUU's erase your current recovery right?
and with that, did you let alpharev install its custom recovery?
Thanks so much
Uhm, good question. I never really had the opportunity to tell. I told AlphaRev to install CWM-AlphaRev recovery, and there's no where between starting the S-OFF process and it being done and dusted to tell if the recovery layer is removed.
To elaborate:
ClockWorkMod, flash RRU.
Boot into RRU, start S-OFF.
S-OFF completes, CWM-AlphaRev is installed as recovery.
No where to tell if ClockWorkMod was removed
Ok so you just flashed your stock Rom from recovery and went from there? You didn't go through the whole pc ruu/fastboot process? Sorry for all the questions
Not sent from an IPhone of any sort
Yup - ClockWorkMod, Full Wipe, install ZIP from SDCard, Bravo_WWE_2.29.405.5_v5.zip, Reboot phone in ROM, enable USB debugging, start the S-OFF Process.
I did need to use fastboot to flash AplhaRev Oxygen once S-OFF, as that's the partition sizes I wanted.
Ok thanks so much
