I just did some changes and am starting to get failures. I had portioned my sd card with clockworkmod in rom manager and did not find the option to change ext2 to ext3 so i left it be for a few months.
I then got pri zip for 1.77_003 that required RA recovery since clowckworkmod 2.5.0.1 would not allow me to install the zip for new pri (root users). Flashed RA 1.8.0
As a froyo 2.2 user, it gives the option for me to auto update apps in market, so I use it. Since I am in a small area that has sprint 3g with 2 bars in AM, and roam with 3 bars in PM, it will start the update then fail. I loose the app as it removes the app before installing new version (removes then fails to install update), also I have just learned to undo partition and happened to loose all data on card while doing so. Was a shocker to me. I have lost some apk apps that were not on market and can't get those apps from market to install now. I lost adobe air and superuser for sure and can't get them to re-install.

It's happens with adobe air too, and something else i didn't catch with the triangle with ! in middle on taskbar before a reboot.
I am running http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743352
And I lost ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1 when I had to flash RA 1.8.0 to get pri 1.77_003.zip to flash. CW fails to flash in rom manager ever since I got pri update to flash with RA. Have made several attempts to get it with failure since update to new pri.
Hope I don't have to re-root with superuser app files to get it back.
That should have covered all details as to where I am at now.
Please help with something if you can.
Yes this thread is a question.
Questions are:
Does anyone have the superuser apk that will install, adobe air, and any apk's I may have forgotten that might show up later in thread? (will post as I remember or realize they are gone)

Anyway got a new evo in, trying to get it rooted. Got as far as getting S-OFF which seems to be important:
Supersonic EVT2-3 SHIP S-OFF
Hboot 2.02.0000
Click to expand...

Flash MISC, run the pc36img. Everything seems sane, then i do the rageagainstthecage exploit again, load on a recovery image. as soon as i reboot to recovery my /system/ partition size gets cut in half and then i can never boot again because random files are missing. Also flashing images fails because half the files dont copy. same with nandroid restores.
results from df before:
/system: 358400K total, 270140K used, 88260K available (block size 4096)
results from df inside recovery after mount -a
/dev/block/mtdblock4 179200 131460 47740 73%

I cant seem to find anyone else with this problem, ive tried it several times with different recovery images. WTF am i missing?
Have you tried unrevokeds unrooter? I used it when i got my second evo with 2.2 on it and i had no problems. Maybe the root method is causing the problems.
I had the same problem. I ran RUU using fastboot and it restored me to stock.
Same issue...
I was able to get su with hboot Super one click.. I can post a place to download if needed. My issue is with the crappy quality of this hardware ver (003) my wife has the original and i love it.
also
I also cannot get any roms to load... I used the traditonal push with no success... Although i have noticed on significant thing that seems to keep happening.... its always fails with the boot.img. I tried loading Fresh through the Rom manager and all it would do is kick me to recovery.... try to do it manually and all roms fail on the boot img.
I have tried applying CyanogenMod, Frankenstein FROYO, VIPERrom (FRoZeN), Mammon's Bonsai4All (I want this one), and MeatRom (found on sdx-developers.com). All of them resulted in the phone going to the Samsung Mobile boot screen, but not getting any further. Even worse than just sitting there some of the roms made my restore attempts not work. Fortunately I found out about Odin flashing, so I managed to get back to a stable state and restore.
Here is some information about my phone if it helps. If anything else is needed I'll dig that up too.

A couple of those mentioned ROMs are EXT4 only and must use Clockwork v3. Clockwork being on the v2.5 build may be your issue.
Give the thread a bit more time to sit, I'm sure some more knowledgeable people will follow up with you.
Good luck.
Yep, it was all because clockworkmod wasn't up to date. Rom Manager really needs to be updated or fixed because it doesn't provide any way to get the newest version.
So does this forum close threads when solved? If so it's ready.
You could edit the thread title and append "Solved." Glad I could help.

Do you know how to Odin back to stock? Follow this thread for it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853209
Then when you restore, only restore data under advanced restore.
If you used Mybackup root or Titanium you can restore your apps from there, otherwise you should download them again from the market.

I would suggest using this one:
Stock EB13 Deodexed EXT4 + CW 3.0.0.6
Most new ROMs need the newer clock work to flash them.

Hi All,
I've been happily using the old version of Amon Ra's recovery for at least six months. I'm wondering if it's really necessary to to the update? I'd father not flash a new recovery unless I have to.
If it is recommended, I know that ROM Manager doesn't support 2.3 yet, so is the best way to update placing the PC36IMG.zip in the base directory of the SD card?
Many thanks!
Tim
ROM Manager may still show 2.2, but it flashes 2.3.
If you aren't having any problems with 1.8, there's no reason to upgrade to 2.3. The new main feature is you can select which parts of the system you want to back up in a nandroid (data/system/wimax/sd-ext, etc).

Thanks Nivron!
Up to u to upgrade or not but it also has new feature to wipe specific parts of phone ie .. system, data,...plus a few others that wernt in there before
Its worth it to upgrade 2.3 has a tad more features when it comes to backing up.

Not sure but if 1.8 dont backup your wimax keys then you need to get ye to 2.3 as fast as possible.. Yes it is worth it...
Hi,
I've got some trouble to get a proper root mod on my phone. After i used some of the hints which can be found in this forum i didn't managed to get it running.
History of my mod-trys:
I got it running until i patched my stock Rom to the latest version via fota. (the feature pack for German roms)
Then i tried to go back to a stock Rom here at the forum - but with little success. I installed it but important not able to get the root mod running without errors.
This is a screenshot of superuser:

}
If i try to update i am getting an error.
Sadly i don't know what to do now to get this fixed. Iused many fresh installs / cleanup etc but everytime i install the update.zip via recovery - its messed up.

try to flash CWM with ODIN.. do not use adb shell because it needs root.. the try flash another ROM.. IT'S VERY RISKY.. I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE BRICKED
i've got cwm at the moment installed. As far as i understood the "root / unroot" thread it's not recommended to use this while rooting via recovery.
i used cwm to create a backup of my system and i rolled back it many times - so - thats working fine.
But my problem is that i don't find a suiteable custom rom for me - because it has to be "as stock as possbile". Meaning - i'm doing much development and testing with that phone - so it's not good if the mod can do things which i can't do with a stock rom. (Rooting is ok - i can handle that "mod" - if it works )
But i'm not firm enough with android core development to fix the root problem right now. Are there any manuals to use the "USB Debugging" Shell? I'm able to use that, too.
OR - if exsists - is there any _german_ stock rom out including the "value pack" addon? I just found a stock rom which is missing that. I guess there's coming with the value pack that causes rooting via update.zip going mad
i cant also root mine and i also have the value pack update but before i had the value pack i can still root my phone :CC
