I think so. It's the same sdk version that I used during the rooting process.

check you hboot, does it say .79, or .76, that's the issue, we need to revert back to .76
here's how.

I'm on HBOOT - 0.93
After reading that thread, I'm not sure I want to risk the potential problems just to get a new splash screen.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

it worked perfect for me, just downloaded the flashable zip version for recovery and no issue's, already have a new splash up.

Help stuck in hboot

I just flashed PB31IMG.ZIP containing only hboot .79 over my hboot .77 now my phone wont reboot. Im stuck on hboot. i can go to recovery but thats it. Ive tried battery pull and everything else. Suggestions????
Is it okay to unzip a PB31IMG.zip and delete all the stuff i dont want then rezip and flash??
Im sorry, wrong section i know. This needs addressed immediately and im not getting help in the Q&A section.

Reboot bootloader, select recovery, restore a nandroid, or flash a rom. It wipes the kernel when you change hboot

i dont have a recent nandroid but i do have a kernel on my sdcard could i just flash it?

Just do an advanced restore of the boot partition.

word of advice, always make a nandroid backup before you do anything. When you change hboot you will have to flash a rom or a nandroid restore to get past hboot

HELP!!! Update

okay so I have been rooted for some time now and decided i wanted to unroot (for reasons im still trying to figure out) so now i am on 2.1 update 1 and cannot update to froyo. when i go to settings>about phone>system update it says my phone is up to date and when download the official 2.2 update and rename it to update.zip and try to install it it says a bunch of stuff then e: error in sdcard update.zip (status 7) update aborted. my radio (baseband) version 1.00.03.04.06 . i have done the PB1IMG thing then tried to update and i get the same thing! I am pissed!
any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Matt

I haven't unrooted in a long time, but maybe it's related to the fact that you're still on the old radio? You might need to be on the official froyo radio which is 2.15.00.07.28

Thank you how do I get the new radio?

Be sure to take extra care when flashing radios. Don't pull the battery while it's updating and even if it looks like it's not doing anything, LEAVE THE PHONE ALONE. Read up in that topic for more information on how to flash radios.

I appreciate your help, I will study up and perform the update tonight. When I post back tonight with the results hopefully I will be updating to froyo
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

If you are going to go through the trouble of updating the radio and then hope the OTA will push, why not install the update? Its the same process and you'll be assured you have the 3.26 build.

Because I can not install the update right now if you read my first post I explain. It says update aborted

Your doing it wrong. My idea is you would be using hboot to flash the update. It will work and not fail.
You issue using the update.zip idea is phone is checking for files that aren't there and then aborting. Hboot will not look for these files and will upgrade you.
An even easier idea would be just to run the ruu if you have a windows PC.
I'm just trying to save you time and headache. You don't have take my advice.

alright, I flashed the new radio(2.15.00.07.28) and i am still having the same problem, not being able to update, either way(manual or by ota) and i am still frustrated. the one weird thing is that after i flashed the new radio when i went to recovery to try ro manual update it was clockworkmod!? I have no idea what the heck is up with my phone! does anyone have any ideas?
thanks,

You will have to either reroot or flash clockwork through hboot when you are done if you want root again.

Don't open or unzip the file. Simply rename and move to SD card. Check the md5 to make sure the zip didn't go tits up during download.
The ruu is a .exe. I'm in class and don't have time to explain. Just Google it.

Plz help, trying to unroot PC36IMG.zip error

I'm trying to unroot and I get stuck at flashing the pc36imp.zip file. My phone says its invalid when I try to flash. What do I do?? Plz help

Run a RUU instead. Download it from here.

Thanks, how do I know to choose the right one? Sorry to be bother.

Pick the 4th one from the bottom up; 3.70 RUU exe.

Maybe you can run the 3.70 ruu and it may work. But from what ive seen you should run an ruu that matches your radio,prl,pri numbers. Then update to 3.70 (if you want) by ota.
Evo - Myn 2.2 RLS 3 - Clockwork - HBoot .76

Thanks guys I will try that and let you know.

Ruu worked great thanks guys

Incredible OTA update

OK, so for the last couple of months I've been putting off updating with the ota just because when I tried to do it, it wouldn't go through because i rooted with unrevoked forever and my security is off (S-off).. So I finally get around to do it, but I can't figure out how to turn security back on (S-on). I thought I could do it by running unrevoked again but this time uncheck Disable security on phone. Well I tried it like 5 times and I still got S-off. So how do I turn it back on to get the newest update, or does anyone have it in an update.zip format?

Why do you want to do that?
That said, if it's what you really want to do, then download the latest PB31IMG file from Doug Piston's Site. Rename the file to PB31IMG.zip, put it on the root of your sdcard, and reboot into HBOOT. Follow the onscreen prompts.
You'll still have S-OFF, but that's not going to prevent the ROM from installing. If you don't want to replace things like your recovery, radio, hboot, with the defaults then remove those .img files from the zip file.

Here, to get s-off the file i attached should work. Its from the get back to stock thread

So if I go get the newest pb31img.zip, that's basically the newest ota? And all I have to do is hboot install it?

So I was just playing around with the pb31img zip from Doug, and i opened one of the files and it pulled up some Starwars stuff... just kind of odd. Then I opened another one and now it says that service is not available anymore... Lol

You don't open that file, you load it to your phone as is.

Yes. Removing the recovery.img means that you won't lose your ClockworkMod Recovery. Alternatively, you could download CWM 3.0.0.8 for the Inc from and replace the recovery.img file in the RUU so that you're flashing the latest CWM instead of the stock recovery.
Similarly, you can grab your favorite radio version from this thread and replace the radio.img file. The one built into the RUU is 07.28, whereas 11.19 is the latest that works with our phones (even if it did come from the Evo). If you're not sure which radio works best for you, then I'd advise starting with the stock 07.28 radio, and seeing which works best for you over time. Different radio versions can have different effects for people depending on their location. For many, it can improve signal strength (and, correspondingly, battery life). For others it makes things worse.
Also, you can't flash S-ON on the Inc unless you're running the 07.28 radio.
What is different with the new hboot?

I'll be honest, I don't know. However, some ROMs require the latest HBOOT to work, so it's worth upgrading while you're resetting everything else.

No, that's not going to work quite the same way. I've never peeked into the OTA file to see what's inside, so I don't know what kind of results you'll get.

Thank you so much, that helped a lot! So I pulled the doug pm31img.zip, put the new clockwork recovery into a new pm31img.zip then copied the contents of Doug pm31img to the new pm31img with out the recovery.img. then re-zipped it, do I need to use no compression? (I used winrar to create the new pm31img.zip)
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Compression ratio doesn't matter -- I used max with 7-zip. Just make sure you use Deflate, not Deflate64 or any other advanced compression method.
And make sure it's name is PB31IMG.zip, not PM31IMG.zip.
Oh, and make sure your SD card is FAT32 formatted, not FAT16.
