You're a genius, man.

Well done!

Thanks!

nice one, cheers

ah, it would be awesome if you add a partiotion sd function into recovery

yeah is format partition on there pal? so we can create ext2, etc?

Hmmm, ROM manager still does not have the latest version updated, do I need to do anything to make it see this new version?

Nice , will test it out Thanks

Since this is experimental, it is only available if you scroll to the bottom and select "All ClockworkMod Recoveries".

Yes, I need some feedback and bug reports before I can release it into the wild on ROM Manager That's why I came to XDA first

can't get into 2.5 is stuck on bootscreen.. Running defrost 2.0f recovery doesn't work in unrevoked and not trew rommanager..

Just flashed using Unrevocked 3 and got stuck at the white HTC screen.
Left it for 5, pulled the battery and tried to enter recovery. The same again.
Pulled, rebooted to the OS and re-flashed the new Unrevoked without the custom image and I now have access to recovery 2.0.2.4.

How did you install? If you used the fakeflash zip it is completely harmless.

Root Help, please

alright, so i'm following this supposedly dummy proof guide and i'm still having issues. my tech level is somewhat high so i'm no tard nugget when it comes to these things.
i'm on step 32 here http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-evo-4g/99793-tutorial-idiot-proof-root-guide.html
i cannot get the update.zip to work. when getting to the recovery screen, i see the following
"E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command"
ignoring that and clicking "apply sdcard:update.zip"
i then get the following
"-- Instal from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted."
does anyone know what is going on and can possibly help me out? i've already un-mounted/re-mounted my SD card and tried all of those steps again and i'm still getting the same results. thank you!

is there a topic there or something i should be looking for? i've googled my exact problems, only to be directed here to xda to threads with different phones and no real fix to this issue. someone usually says "oh i tried it again and it worked", or "oh i re-did it all and it just worked".
i've already done all of that. so again, anyone...please

what Sporkman was trying to get across is that this is the wrong forum to post this question. Go over to the forum Sporkman posted, and ask there.

thank you for not being quite as vague as first reply.

What's the name of the ROM you're trying to flash? Try selecting flash zip from SD card, then choose zip from SD card, then flash whichever ROM it is you're trying to flash. Make sure you wipe data and dalvik first.

i'm trying to flash a stock ROM, Supersonic_1.32.651.1_rooted.zip.
after re-doing everything, i went back to ROM manager and this time selecting "fix permissions" worked. i'm now trying to flash clockworkmod recovery and that's not working...so now i'm gonna try it manually again now that the permissions have been fixed supposedly.
the part in bold i didn't get at all lol
what do you mean by zip from SD card?

and yup, it's still not working. same error messages. why is rooting an Android so hard??? i haven't seen one guide that was all step by step ie 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 etc for first timers like myself. even the one i linked isn't a complete step by step.

when i get into recovery mode, this is what i see for options:
-reboot system now
-apply sdcard: update.zip
-wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache partition

Lol Okay, first off if you're using the apply update.zip feature in recovery, its not going to work unless the ROM you're trying to flash is named update.zip. when you go into recovery mode, what version recovery are you running? Is it the one with turquoise letters? Of it is then you're running Koush's clockwork recovery already and there is no need to flash. There should be some options, apply zip from SD card or something like that at the main screen in recovery mode. I'm not too sure, I use Amon RA's recovery. But after you select that you should be given a few options and one of them should choose zip from SD card.

That's the stock recovery. You haven't successfully flashed a custom recovery yet. Check this post in a sec for an edit, I have a tutorial that's skimmed down. You should be able to run through it quickly since you're almost done with the rooting process.

Okay, so I'm at work and I realize the info I've been giving you is riddled with grammatical errors and what-have-you, so just follow this guide from step 13 down.

the clockwork recovery did not work. i had to manually download that one. and it's called "update.zip". so this is why i'm trying to flash this. i have to flash this first in order to be able to flash other ROMs, or at least that was my understanding.
so, to recap, i tried to do "Flash Clockworkmod Recovery" in the ROM Manager and it kept giving me an error.
i started with unrevoked. it finishes, done, and i get rooted
then i downloaded ROM manager
tried to flash clockworkmod from ROM manager and it says "an error occured while flashing your recovery". no biggie
that's where the "update.zip" comes in. that is the same thing as the clockworkmod, except i'm manually downloading this on a computer and then loading it onto my phone.
then, reboot and go through the steps, and that's when i get the original errors posted in the OP.
edit: just saw your second post. thanks! that looks way freaking easier lol. i'll give it a try and report back. thanks again

if you dont have root yet, i just helped someone that pmd me about helping them root and with ota 4step root it took him about 7 mins and all we did was watch it work, and hes only had his evo for 1week and didnt actually know anything about rooting other than he wanted to flash my finisher rom. I was surprised how simple it really was. follow the easy directions HERE and youre golden lemme know how it goes. I suggest doing some research and deciding which rom you would like to use and then putting it on your sd root directory before you start. Also when it asks you what recovery image to flash i suggest amon-ra because it has NEVER failed me, even back to the hero. I have heard many complaints about the other. toasts is sweet too though. I am not ripping anyone since i cannot even make a recovery image, just letting you know what has been solid since day one for me.

one more question. anyone know why google earth wouldn't be showing up in the market after root? using titanium and trying to restore, that's the only app that wouldn't restore, too.

I will pay for a moto expert

Lol post it too... I would like to know how to combat bootloop aswell...

The fastest way, assuming that you have an external SD card reader and can put this file on your SD from your computer is the following:
Download This : TMobile Update Thanks to BeachHead for modifying it.
Once downloaded rename it to Update.zip.
Place in root of SDCard.
Hold the volume down button and turn the phone on. Press in the corner to get into the recovery mode. On the options select the update.zip. Let the process begin. The file is modified to not check for things. This will reload all of the firmware as well as the system. After that is done, do a factory reset. Your phone should now boot to 2.2 . If this does not work let me know and I'll do the more involved guide.

Argh - HELP

I flashed the SBF 2.2 BOOT and it booted to the T-Mo screen which is where it is currently stuck. I'll give it a few minutes.

I got where you are at now. Download this SBF and flash it. http://www.multiupload.com/ZZ4TU8W7UQ
Its is the earlier leaked TMobile build. Once you have flashed this root your phone and install clockwork. Let me know when all of that is done. I should be done with dinner by then and can help the rest of the way. You will need the zip file I posted earlier as well as the 2.2 nandroid backup. Leave the Update.zip in the root of your sdcard, and put the nandroid backup in the apkrev folder on the sdcard. Once those are in place, boot into clockworkmod. Wipe system and cache. Then do a restore of the 2.2 Nandroid. Do not reboot yet. Now apply the update.zip. Do not reboot yet. Now do another system wipe. Now reboot the phone. You should be all set to go.

Dude it was actually fine. It loaded up and worked perfectly, I have FroYo and you are the man! Now I have a camera problem.

I would try a reset to fix it. Many have had camera issues and that seems to be the fix.

YES!!!!!!!!!!

You have to boot the right firmware. I realized that last night. You need to get that update.zip file to run and bring the proper firmware inline with the system image. I was screwing around last night playing with the different combos, and discovered that it wasn't mapping resources right. I lost use of my SD card.

Did you see my post about firmwares......the 2.2SBF is slightly older than the new rom. I suspect mappings have changed...update and see if that fixes it.

You are supposed to flash the compatible ROM BEFORE rebooting. Turn off the phone, boot back into CWM with 3 finger and flash the EXT4 compatible ROM.

I never had a ROM on it jut rooted it.
I want the stock stuff just rooted so I can get the wireless tether.

That was kind of an important part of the OP on CWM 3.0.0.6. You need to pick a ROM that is EXT4 compatible, download it onto your computer, pop the sd card out of your phone, put it in a card reader on your computer and copy the ROM to it and then put it back into the phone and boot with 3 finger salute and choose install zip from sd card and flash the ROM.
Or you can Odin a prerooted EC05 stockish ROM for that.

An upgrade to CWM 3.0.2.5 will fix the problem?
*know how to upgrade from a previous post*

Here is a stock EC05 ROM for EXT4 you can Odin in:

I must be hungry...I just thought of something. Go into CWM and go to restore. There is a file there which says beforeEXT4 or something like that. Restore that and then put the other CWM 3.0.2.5 on and you should be good.

Says no files found etc.

Is your sd card still in your phone? The conversion to EXT4 makes a backup on your sd card.

[HELP] Gio and CyanogenMod 7.2-GIO-KANG

Hi guys. I have a huge problem. Few minutes ago I tried to install CyanogenMod 7.2-GIO-KANG by use CWM v5.0.2.7. Everything appeared to be ok, but when phone reboot I just can see white word ANDROID on a black background and nothing more. Phone just stop on this screen. Is there any resolution for my problem? I modded lot of phones, this is my first crash. Thx for every advice. Bye

Same issue. Is there a way to restore to stock firmware without odin? Such as from the recovery console?

If before you had an official rom, you must use the ext4 formatter. I think you'll find it in the thread! Hope to be useful

i've noticed sometimes is does take a minute or two to get past that screen.

Now I have a new problem, it no longer allows me to boot the device, it displays an image of a phone connected to a pc. Does this mean I have to flash in odin?
