I just rooted my evo 2.2V following the incredible instructions outlined on XDA. now i have ROM manager installed. I did a backup using the ROM manager app and also downloaded the CM6 ROM using the same app. butwhen i tryed to flash the rom it did not go through. The phone rebooted but gave an error even befour the process could start. I tried it again using the ROM manager with the same results. What could be the issue? the original ROM was downloaded by ROM Manager and is still in the memory and every time i try flashing it, it just comes up with an error and i have to restore the backup. Could this be due to a corrupted dowload or something else. Thanks in advance for the help guys.
I recently used ROM Manager to d/l and flash CM6, no issues. But now when I use it to backup the ROM, it freezes up on a f/c screen after the backup is completed and is rebooting. Replicated the issue twice to be sure. Have to pull the battery. So much for not having to do a real nand, lol.
Still searching for the right thread for my issue.
Update: Cleared d/l cache, flashed RA 1.8 then reflashed Clockwork, all better.

I'm not qualified to tell anyone how to do anything, but you can find directions on how to d/l and place the rom on the root of your sd card, then flash it with recovery. Search out flashing roms and I'm sure you'll get it done.
Clearing and reflashing clockwork on rom manager before you try might not do any harm as well. Never know. Read up, don't trust my word, lol.

Have you tried other roms besides cm6? You will need the .76 hboot with that one. If you are having issues flashing any rom, then you will meed to try unlocking your nand again with toasts Eng bootloader.

Ok im having problems. I've rooted many phones and never seen this before. After I run unrEVOked the phone say S-OFF which means its rooted but it won't let me change the recovery. Im trying to switch to Amon Ra but clockwork will not go away. Ive tried to flash thru rom manager and using fastboot. It will say its changed but when I go into recovery its still clockwork. Can anyone help with this?
Sometimes when it gets "stuck" like that I'll switch back and forth between ar and cw in the same instance of rom manager. eventually the install takes.

do caulks format all then reflash rom and try again with rom manager
Ok so rom manager was telling me that there was a update for clockworkmod, i was on 2.5.0.1, i was very happy with it and never had any issues. I wanted to go to amon so I could back up my wimax just in case. So I did that.
When I went back to clock work it installed some newer buggy version and i was unable to get back to 2.5.0.1. Only other versions.
I wanted to flash a new kernel, i have not been able to, nothing but bootloops.
I'm currently on amon, but still get bootloops, i found 2.5.0.1 as a zip file but when I flash it I just go to it like normal but it doesn't stick, when I go back to recovery i still get amon, until I flash that zip, then I'm back to. 2.5.0.1.
But flashing a kernel through either recoveries I still get bootloops.
How can I get back to 2.5.0.1 for good so its the main recovery?
Any thoughts or opinions?
Yes im wiping dal and cache.
I think something is messed in recovery.
The only way I get the phone to boot normal is if I reflash the rom im using.

If possible, flash the Rom you are currently using. Once that is done, load up clockwork manager and switch back to clockwork's recovery. Once you do that, then flash the zip you had to get back to your older version of clockwork.
I had a similar problem (without constant bootloops though).

I rooted my phone in March everything worked fine. It's shows s-off. I Was able to do a backup and install the MIUI rom. I didn't like it so I went back to the stock rom. Now over a month later I wanted to try a rom again. Everytime I'm in hboot it load and say pc36img is not found when i click recovery it don't load at all. Any help would be needed.

Have you tried to re-install recovery? I flashed to stock, and recovery was removed from my system, so I had to reinstall it.
Easiest way to do it is through ROM Manager from the market.
I did have rom manager installed and uninstalled it because I thought it was what messed up recovery. But reinstalled it an now it worked. Thanks alot

I successfully rooted my phone a few days ago using the Revolutionary method and flashed ClockworkMod Recovery without a problem. Then I flashed CyanogenMod 7.1.0 again without a problem. I noticed my gps has been having an issue detecting my location so I figured I should flash the nandroid for my stock rooted android 2.3.3 rom and see if the issue still exists. My main problem is that I can't boot into recovery. Apparently I have the latest version of Clockwork. I try to boot into recovery using different methods and I keep ending up at the white screen that says 'Revolutionary' in pink at the top with the 3 skateboarding androids at the bottom. I try to get to recovery from that screen also still with no success. It just reboots into that screen. I was thinking I may have to use the ruu to unroot my Evo (I rather find an alternative solution). How can I regain my ability to boot into recovery? Any help would be much appreciated...

If grab the pc36img for amon_ra, throw it in the root of your SD, using a card reader in a computer, get into hboot and let it install. Then try to get into recovery. F clockwork anyway.....90% of the peeps around here having problems are running that recovery

Turn off your phone,then when turning it on hold the volume rocker in the down position,you will then boot into hboot settings,hboot will automatically check for the update file(PC36IMG)after its done,scroll to recovery and enter that way,if you still cant get into recovery,you will need to download and reinstall the latest revolutionary root tool,i recommend using "TeamWin Recovery Project" i've never had a problem with it.

I was actually going to go the amon ra route because i was familiar with it while I had a HTC Hero. But TWRP v2 caught my attention and I decided to go that route. So far so good as far as I can tell. I made a nandroid backup. Thanks. Any tips or info I should know about using TWRP?
And 1 more thing. I have a nandroid backup from when I had clockwork recovery. I should still be able to flash that back up right?

Nope you can't flash your CWM backup since your on TWRP. You would have to flash back to the version of CWM that you made the backup with

Man that sucks. I need to be able to access that particular nandroid. Thats my stock backup right after I rooted my phone. Ok so I can flash back to clockwork, restore my nandroid, then go back to TWRP and make a backup compatible with TWRP?

How can I figure out the version though? clockwork installed on my phone right after I rooted my phone via the revolutionary method. I did this about 2 weeks ago. Im guessing i have to go through rom manager, but this was part of the issue to begin with

Clockworkmod.com . Also I believe revolutionary gives you the latest version so just flash the latest CWM for the evo4g

I installed a new recovery after i installed revolution,because i also had recovery issues.The version should be at the top of the recovery screen.I didnt like rom manager too much,for some reason it gives me problems.
They say that this version of Amon can be used to restore clockwork backups. I haven't tried it with clockwork myself because I avoids clockworkmod.
Thanks for the help everyone. Everything is gravy now. I'm happy with TWRP. I do have a question for making a backup. By default in TWRP, the 1st 3 boxes are checked up for when attempting to make a backup. Do any of you guys ever check the other boxes (Recovery, cache, .android_secure) and if so, why? Also, when you attempt to wipe before restoring, which items do you guys wipe? Any other tips or suggestions about this recovery would appreciated too.
I backup everything except cache.
