i just received a new white evo from sprint with hboot 2.02.0000. i attempted to use unrevoked and although it registered as a triumph, i have no changes on the phone. i tried several RUUs to no avail. i cannot load jack. i cannot get into recovery and i have no image or wrong image during hboot. if someone can help me troubleshoot this, it would be greatly appreciated. i have been reading hard on several forums, but since this seems to be a new build i cant find any threads with the same issue. any help???? please note that noob patience is required when replying to my thread. thnx again.
helloi think i have what you need. i am building a 3-command full root for the new hboot. beta testers are in short supply. do you mind testing it out? i will be done with a beta-2 (hopefully a final v1) by tomorrow morning. my email is [email protected]
yeah, ive read ur other posts. i dont have a mac either, but once u get it running on a pc just holler. on another note, im trying to do this now. i just cant get my phone to read an image. i tried copying to root of sd, but it still wont read. i keep getting no image or wrong image. i wanna try the "like a boss" root method tutorial, but i CANT!!! this is heart-wrenching, lol.
Still need more beta testers...nobody has a mac and a unrooted evo!
FINALLY!!!!!!! im rooted. like a boss i might add!! woo hoo!!
Dude how did u get rooted man. Pleasei really wqnt to know man

lol, yeah, just like a boss. although i didnt have the slightest clue how to even open the command window at first, that tutorial is serious!! dont let it discourage u, just follow step by step and u'll be a boss too. im using fresh right now, but ima prob have tried at least 5 roms by tom. oh, i do have a quest..... i thought the mms limit was supposed to be removed?? is that the 160 character limit?? cause i'm still limited to 160.
nah mms is for pictures. u used to not b able to send much over 2mb, but now its 5mb, and it isnt even compressed to a slideshow format unless its over that. not bad huh.
like a boss is definitely the best. thats what im building my kit off of.
theres no roms with a hack for that 160 character limit??
no. either way, if you go over the phone just sends it in 2 or more parts. same end result.

why are you making multiple threads about the same thing?
Yeah man...just use Odin and go back to stock D118...fairly easy.
@ luvjones305
I would've expected someone who has been here almost a year to know how to search or at least not to spam the forum with reposts.
The "official update" will probably suck anyways. I would just wait until one of the developers has a ROM ready. I'm sure it wont be long
uh huh
first of all yea i signed up a year ago it don't mean im on here 24 hours like i don't have a life an if you cant help don't post nothing on here go cry some were else an i already search through here
It is physically painful to read your posts, I mean come on "yea"? Seriously? And that wouldn't even be such a big deal if you weren't a total prick to everyone, whether they were legitimately trying to help you or not. I am hard pressed to think of anyone who is anywhere near as big a prick as you manage to come across as (assuming you're actually not a total prick when not protected by the anonymity of the "interwebs").

So that means the forums are segregated now? Gotta stay with your own kind and can't look at what's going on with other devices? I'm all over the sgs family, nexus boys, general, android and ot. It's kinda nice seeing dev from all over. Integration is good.
I don't deny that, just trying to avoid the off chance someone flashes a Rom not for their Galaxy S variant and has a "DOH!"moment
Haha hell no man. I've already spent the 2 bucks at radio shack for my jig. Only had to use it once. I mostly just trawl the themes and apps for other sgs's but I love watching people loose their minds when an ota hits like the op here. Lots of craziness in general for yall right now.
You should see the n1 now. 2.3 dropping for those guys and they have one thread about it, over 150 posts, and only two people on stock to pick it up. That's how it should be.
Edit nvm, they got 3

I know i'm not the only one but i'm like a kid waiting for Christmas. In short, I bought a new Evo 4G used, its not even 2 weeks old. Gingerbread is on it (4.22.651.2) and im waiting for the ability to root /unroot [which way im not sure] and last i was told its Ruu is not made or found yet. Please make this an easy transition and let me know here if the Ruu is created and if the steps will be different than the other steps you've guys shown here and on youtube, please! Also, I'm paying for Boost's blackberry service (60 bux a month) which i won't need when i get the Evo 4G going. I would be over grateful for your patience and consideration. Also, i did do my due diligence to look for all the info and tried several rooting options i.e.: Unrevoked3 and so on, with no luck.
Thanks!!

If you would have looked harder (sarcasm), you would have found that there is not root method for the newest OTA update. There are dozens of threads pointing this out.
Thanks, tgruendler [re-sarcasm] I did indicate that i knew the OTA wasn't able to be rooted yet HOWEVERm if it did come about if it could be posted here, i'd Highly appreciate it since there is a TON of information throughout the site! Yet, Thanks for the Razzin'

the first few times are gunna be scary but its no big deal after a while... i remember the first time i rooted and flashed anything was on my samsung behold that was stuck in android 1.6.. uggh
I was such a noob i couldnt tell you what rom i ended up flashing or what method i used to root lol...
all i remember is using a program that ran on my computer to unlock it.
heck even the first time i rooted my evo i noobed it up. but now im more into it than before. You will become a flash-aholic
And there are so many great roms, themes and mods out now...you can flash all day for a week and still not see everything.

You don't just "take a rom off". If you wipe the rom, your phone wont boot to anything. But you can easily just flash another rom, or restore your previous backup.
GOOD site for most roms on one page!!
http://evo4g.roms-db.com/all-builds/
Ran across the above site in research, used a rom off of it pretty cool plus anything tie into XDA im for it!! Thanks
Flash-a-holics (not to be mistaken with streakers lol) is a known issue affecting men and women here in XDA. This is an incurable addiction. Common symptoms include:
Anxiety (don't believe me? Try flashing a radio update lol)
Stress (not knowing what to do when your phone boots and is stuck at the HTC EVO 4G screen lol)
Nagging from the wife (cuz you spend more time tweaking your phone instead of helping around taking care of the baby)
In EXTREME cases, hypothetically speaking, if your house was on fire and you had a chance to retrieve one of the following items:
1) wedding album
2) expensive art piece
...you would write in:
3) my precious Evo lol

He wasn't trying to be a jerk. The best thing you can do is research read and search some more, and do it all over again. There are plenty of ppl here that will help. First off it is really hard to mess up your phone to the point of not being able to fix it. Most important now that you are rooted is to make a nandroid backup it will save you phone. Good luck and happy flashing

no worries, there is a workaround to downgrade to hboot .97 then you can get s-off and root.

First you need to locate odin 1.8. Then install the samsung drivers for the galaxy s. Next download this Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?opnq0n0pau8cu01. Now open up odin, put the tar you got in PDA. Next turn your epic completely off (pull battery then put back in) and then plug your epic in and make sure ONLY auto reboot is checked on odin. Now hit start on odin and wait. Now when it is done, your phone will be 'rooted'. Now you can download 'superuser' from the market.
Next I reccomend installing a ROM. A good one for starters is mostly stock which you can find in the development section. Put the zip on your sd card. Now shut.down your phone. Next hold down volume down, camera and power until you get a recovery screen. Next use the volume keys to navigate to install zip from sd card and press camera to select. Now do the same with choose zip and choose mostly stock. Now hit yes and wait. After that is done, use the back arrow to go back and choose reboot. This boot will take a while...
Now your phone will be way better than that **** that didnt give you your money would have made it.
If this worked for you, I would appreciate a thanks or donation.
That rom contains a bunch of fixes. Also I reccomend doing the same thing you did with mostlystock with the samurai kernel.
