[Fixed] Help Unrevoked3 Rooting Froyo

I am having troubling rooting my Dinc 2.2.
I installed the Hboot drivers
I then set my Dinc to USB Debug then ran Unrevoked3
It runs threw its thing until it says done waiting for system to ....
But then it is just sits at the home screen just like a regular Dinc.
Why am I not finishing up in Clockworkmod Recovery so I can backup my Nand and go from there? Thanks
I got Unrevoked3 before they pulled it.

HTC Sync
Is HTC Sync installed? it can't be if you want it not sit at "waiting" forever.

It goes threw all the steps but on the last reboot Unrevoked says Done! waiting for system.....
Then it just sits at the unlock screen Just like normal. So its done but no root.
BTW you are at what I am. Stock 2.2 and Wanting Virtuous. So what steps did you use to get your rooted?

[Q] My Incredible bricked itself?

This is really my first time posting unfortunately, but here's what happened.
I have an Incredible that I purchased back when they were only available for preorder. I've had it rooted with 2.2 running Virtuous rom and king kernel since they basically were released. Everything has been running great. Today I woke up though and unplugged the phone from the charger and the phone rebooted itself. I thought, ok it does this every so often so I didn't think anything of it. Ten minutes later it's still stuck at the HTC INCREDIBLE white screen and hasn't moved from there. I can boot into hboot, but no clockwork recovery. When trying to boot into recovery it just goes to the white start screen as well.
I tried clearing user data from hboot and I tried updating the radio, and nothing seems to do it. I'm stumped. Is there any way to recover a phone that's stuck on this screen? I've got a replacement coming, but for future reference I would love to know how to fix it, if at all possible.
Any ideas?

So in reading your post, I gathered this information- You were running a 2.2 Virtuous rom on a radio baseband of 1.x? Is that right?

Did you try getting a complete stock RUU file and installing it via HBOOT?

Sounds like your partitions are screwed up. There is another thread about this in the Q&A.

[Q] dinc gets black screen when attempting to use Clockwork Recovery

Im trying to get the OTA update that came out in November or so onto a coworkers dinc that we rooted with Unrevoked. It is currently s-off and I need to turn s-on with the appropriate file and then run the update. For some reason when I go into recovery mode to attempt the s-on process all I get is a black screen. Its almost like Clockwork recovery will not fully load. There are no options or anything for me to choose from, its just completely frozen on a black screen (with white borders on 3 edges).
Ive tried to reflash the Clockwork recovery image, thinking something was wrong with it, by using Unrevoked reflash.exe but even that doesnt work. It jsut says 'failed to flash recovery image.' All this is being done on the same machine that the dinc was rooted on.
Is there anyone who has seen this before and can help me?
Edit:
Ive now attempted to put TWO different dincs into recovery and get the same thing. Black screen, no options in green text. Ive waited as long at 10 minutes and nothing ever appears. They just sit there like that. On another note, booting mine to recovery works just fine. All are running baseband 2.15.00.07.28.

Are you using the latest Unrevoked?
Look at this:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855515&highlight=slcd
Use the search button, there are other threads with the same or similar problem that got resolved.

I did use the search button and found some threads that talked about a black screen, but from looking at those, they were actually getting the green text options and just did not know to use the touch sensor button in place of the power button. This appears to be a different issue. Maybe I am using the seach feature incorrectly, or not putting in the right verbiage, but it only provided unrelated threads.
Thanks for the input. I will make sure I am using the latest unrevoked executable and see if it makes a difference in getting the Clockwork recovery back on and functional.

UPDATE: Unresolved. The phone now has the update applied, but I am unable to re root it and provide wifi tethering. Unrevoked is saying that the process failed and asks if the firmware is too recent. What is this all about? I had no issues doing this when I did it to my phone over a month ago. Any further ideas?

Are you sure you applied the November update? I know there was a more recent OTA that went out, I believe that patched the loophole that unrEVOked used. Maybe you flashed that by accident?

It was definitely the November update. A further search on google actually pointed me in the direction of uninstalling programs that may interfere with the root and also putting it into disk mode when plugged in via USB. I found a program that was erroneously left the during the reflash and once it was removed, the re-root with unrevoked finally worked.
Things seem to be working now, finally. Im now attempting the re-root on the second of the coworkers' phones.

If they have SLCD, you need to flash an SLCD-compatible version of clockwork. Read here

Phone is looping the Evo Splash Screen

I have searched and I can't get this too boot up.
I installed a fresh RUU and it updated it successfully but it still keeps looping.
I can get into HBOOT but not into recovery.
I was rooted running Decks 2.3.4 ROM with the Godmode kernal.
Any help would be appreciated.

Was everything working properly before you tried to run the RUU, or were you already having looping problems? Perhaps try clearing storage from your bootloader menu, then try to boot up again. If that still fails, then I'd try running the RUU again.
Some more info would be great, such as the following:
what RUU version did you flash?
what is your current hboot version?
what is your current radio/baseband version?
That information will determine which RUU you need to run.
If your looping at the splash screen (HTC Evo 4G screen) and NOT the actual boot animation, then it sounds like it could be a problem with your bootloader, possibly.
It does sound like you'll need to try running the RUU again, or running a different RUU.

Thanks for your reply.
Everything was working fine before this happened. I took it off the charger and booted it up and it started to loop.
Hboot is 2.10 and I flashed the latest RUU available from HTC/Sprint

So everything was working good, then you decided you were going to unroot? Do you mind if I ask why (out of curiosity).
So basically, you decided to unroot it. You ran the RUU, it completed successfully, you unplugged from your USB cable, turned it on, and the result was looping at the splash. Is that accurate? If so, I would try running the RUU again.
I'd probably even download a new copy of the RUU, just to be sure you don't have a bad download. Then try running it again and see if that makes any difference for you. I'll attatch a link to the RUU i keep in my dropbox.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16599118/RU...15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed.exe
EDIT: I forgot to mention, that in order for you to run the RUU now, you'll most likely need to be in fastboot mode. So, boot to the bootloader, and select 'fastboot usb' from the menu. Once your in fastboot usb mode, try running the RUU. It should detect the phone and run just fine.

I wasn't trying to unroot. I flashed the ruu to see if I could get my phone working again after I saw it was looping the splash screen. I did the fastboot usb the ruu found the phone and flashed the new software and still loops.

Same thing is happening to me. I was on Deck's ROM except I wasn't trying to unroot. I put it on the charge then I noticed the White HTC Splash screen was on and off.
Now it won't get past it. I can get into the loader but not recovery.

Damn man, I'm sorry to hear that. The RUU is pretty much a last resort of restoring your phone back to stock when things go wrong. Since that is failing, there isn't too much else you can do. You can try running a different RUU, but I would most likely expect the same results you've been getting. There was a bunch of people with this same problem a month or two back, and there was never a fix found for it. The name of the thread was "boot looping and no recovery access" or something like that. Author of the thread was something like westibone. I'll see if I can dig it up for you, so you can read through that. There were a ton of suggestions in there. Good luck.

Stuck in non funtioning RUU Froyo with S-ON

Hello. I'm in a bit of a bind which I cannot get myself out of, so I am posting here. I've been around for over a year lingering, updating, trying new things, etc. I came across a free Incredible, which I attempted to root, and install a ROM onto. I rooted the phone with Unrevoked 3, booted into Clockwork mod recovery, made a nandroid, and installed the ROM. The installation was successful, however, on boot after the HTC splash screen the phone vibrates 5 times and the led flashes green constantly. The same thing happened when I tried to boot into recovery.
I found that the phone booted to the Set Up, which crashed, if it was plugged into a computer. I ADB saw the device but I could not push files or execute commands. Unrevoked S-OFF would not work also.
After Googling, I found a 2.2 RUU, which installed successfully, but I get the same boot problems. If the USB is plugged into a computer before the phone is turned on I actually get to Android and can play around. The phone will not recognize any memory, SD or internal; only phone memory is recognized. I tried ADB again with no luck, most likely has to do with the phone not recognizing memory. So I flashed the RUU from HBOOT which flashed fine, but the same problems still persist.
I am out of ideas, which I hope someone has anything I can try.

I cannot thank you enough.
Edit: Unrevoked gave me s-off. I want to be clear this time before I install any ROM. Do I need to run unrevoked-forever.zip? I am 99.999% positive I do not since I already have s-off. I want to get a new ROM on tonight.

Unrevoked 3 now contains the forever patch, as previous versions did not. So you are good to go flash away, after making a nandroid of course

No need for unrevoked forever if you are s-off

Thanks! On my way to a new ROM.
