No uninstall the program leaving just the drivers. Then run unrevoked again.

Make sure you set the Boot driver also, as per the instructions in UNrevoked directory on .html file.
Also make sure you have the correct version of Unrevoked v 3.1

problem solved.
Thanks everyone !!

Make sure Sync is uninstalled and follow driver installation instructions.
As previously mentioned

Perhaps change your title - its very misleading, the problem wasn't unrEVOked, it was you not reading their instructions - glad you got it sorted though.

i had the same issue
i backup sd card since i v only one and created a gold card
i then ran an the R5 root method since i v a version 0.8 cant remember
once u do step one dont bother about step two
just copy fake flash to ur sdcard and rename update.zip
then hold the down vol button and press power once to get to hboot
select recovery
when u get to the screen with the red triangle
press the up vol button and hold the power button
when u get to the blue screen select apply update.zip
that should take you to recovery
dont forget to backup ur stuff before u reroot

pls change title to solved

the problem was unrevoked
this happen after i tried using unrevoked
went ok from the beginning
but after the phone rebooted it kept pushing recovery for over an hour
tried it about 5 times and still did not work

as always RTFM (read the f***ing manual)
glad you got it sorted, recovery and rooting is a godsend so many roms to try haha

What about reading more to learn more?

The problem WAS NOT unrevoked, it was YOU and only YOU not reading the damn f$%&ing instructions. Before you try to root or update, please read, read and read again until you understand every single word of the instructions, and if there is something you don't understand, just ask, we are all pleased to help each other, but don't accuse a great program and the greater team behind unrEVOked.
Thanks for reading.

Help! EVO stuck at Red Triangle after using auto root

I am currently doing the Universal Auto Root (linked below), and it seems it is stuck near the end.
[ROOT] ~~~ HTC EVO - Universal Auto Root ~~~ v2.2 (works with all version)(1/10/11)
It says it is currently waiting on the phone, but the phone is at the right area correct? I have the entire command prompt below, but the last line is oof course the issue.
Starting ADB server...
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
Searching for phone...
Found the phone connected as 'device'
Checking MTD configuration...
Phone uses the new block size.

Bootloader shows Firmware Version '1.17.651.1'

Verified the phone has the newer MTD setup with hBoot Version '2.10.0001'
Verified NAND is locked.
* Using the phone push Power to select Bootloader and then say Yes when it asks
to flash the PC36IMG.zip.
* It will complain part of the way through about the bootloader or radio failing
but should continue.
* Once it finishes it will ask to reboot, say No.
* Use the Volume Down button to highlight Recovery and then press Power to
select it. If it stays on the white htc EVO 4G screen for more than two or
three minutes pull the battery and turn the phone back on. Again say Yes when
it asks to flash the PC36IMG.
* Once in the recovery you will see a red triangle with an exclamation mark,
rooting will automatically resume a few moments after that appears.
It is very important that you do not interrupt your phone when flashing.
Unplugging or turning the phone off while it is flashing can easily brick
your phone. This script will time out if too much time passes.

Yes everything was working fine until that point.
I apparently just timed out of the auto script.
The phone could not be found or was not ready. ADB and Fastboot report it as
'offline' instead of the expected 'recovery'. Make sure ADB debugging is
turned on, the phone is in the correct mode and that you are using HTC's Evo
drivers that come with HTC Sync.

I would of not used that in the first place. You should use adb and flash amon ra to save your rsa keys before gaining root access in the first place. You don't want to lose 4g all together.

ohh, gotcha. To restart it all you have to do is run the openshell file to bring up a dos prompt. From there use 'autoroot makenandroid' and it should pick up where it left off
If tells you your phone is not in the recovery then you will need to go back the the bootloader and let it flash one more time then run it.

You have to be rooted to flash amon ra goof ball.
But it does make a backup of your 4G the first chance it gets.

My phone will now only go to the boot loader, red triangle, and stay on the "htc EVO 4G" screen.

The pc36ing never got flashed. You must do that per the instructions before going in to the recovery.
Also, once you are in the screen with the red triangle holding vol up and power will bring up a menu.

Do you have a sd card reader? You can put the ruu's pc36img on your sd card and flash it that way.
Something else you could try is loading your phone in to the recovery, so it shows the red triangle, and then running the file that says start recovery. If that brings up a green menu on your phone you can continue rooting

Yes I had to put the right pc36img on my sd card. It was a little hard to find a stock pc36img.zip file. I am currently re-rooting my phone, and has already moved farther than the last time.

Try this.

xHausx I apologize for pm'ing you first without posting here originally. Here's my issue:
I was trying to run the auto root v2.3 and now i am stuck right here....
#6 If you have to flash it manually just push Power to select "BOOTLOADER" and say Yes when it asks to flash the PC36IMG.zip. It will complain part of the way through about Boot Loader and/or radio errors and then skip them, this is normal. Once it finishes say No when asked to reboot and use the Vol Down button to highlight Recovery. Then press Power to select it.
#7 After a moment your phone should show a Red Triangle with an Exclamation mark inside, at this point the script will take back over and start to make a NANDroid backup.... ----> and now I'm right here <------
The script window closed and i am stuck on the red triangle screen. I think the smart thing to do for me is to use that RUU. but I'll wait for some feedback i go further.. Also i tried reading that logfile (see attached) and found certain lines where it said Out of memory while it was trying to write to the misc partition. Thanks for the help!
PS: its my wife's phone so she has my evo for now
Also forgot to mention i read the help that big_tiger received but i was also confused on how to flash for that RUU pc36img file.. bootloader or recovery??

xHausx -
I tried downgrading to something other than 3.7 with 2.10 HBOOT as I read somewhere amongst the thread that the auto method wouldn't work with that version.

I have the 3.7 RUU and can try running that and reattemping the Autoroot but I thought I read somewhere that if I have HBOOT 2.10 that this method doesn't work yet.
I looked through a lot of the pages but so far haven't found anyone else stuck where I am. Any thoughts on how to proceed?
Thanks in advance for all the help my friend.

I got stuck at the same spot yesterday, so I eventually ran the 3.7 RUU to start over.
Now my phone reboots after it's been in sense for about 30 seconds.
I can't figure out how to get it to stop rebooting, also the device cant be seen in ADB.
I reflashed the 3.7 RUU from the exe and from a PC36IMG file multiple times and it still reboots. Seems like something isn't getting cleared out by the RUU.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

[Q] Crap - I'm stuck.... (urgent help needed)

Ok, I can't figure this out, despite researching across a bunch of threads.
I've been trying to root my fiancee's Evo for almost 2 hours now to no avail.
First I tried the "autoroot" method, but it failed. Then I tried the unrEVOked method, and it kept getting hung up on "installing unrevoked service...".
Somehow, after getting through bootloader, et. al. a few times, I got to the screen with triangles\exclamations in each corner. I got out of that by running an RUU. Well, that apparently wasn't right, because then I could not get any of the Root methods to work.
I downloaded an older version - EvoRoot - and tried it. Seemed to be working....until it went to flash recovery, and now I'm stuck going between the Bootloader screen and the red triangle-exclamation.
I can't, for the life of me, figure out how I can get out of this mess.
The Evo has never been rooted and it's only a few weeks old. It was originally on this:
RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.70.651.1_Radio_2.15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed
And is definitely Android 2.2.
I think I accidentally ran this:
RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.26.651.6_Radio_2.15.00.07.28_NV_1.40_release_140444_signed
to get myself out of the 4 exclamation point screen.
Can anyone help me at all?

Well the red triangle with an exclamation means you are going into recovery. but no recovery is installed. Boot into the rom use/download rom manager, and flash clockworkmod recovery. That should do it.

I can do one of a few things:
V-Up + Power = 4 options. I can't "update.zip" because it says "no such file or directory". Wiping does nothing, just returns me to red ! screen.
Get to Bootloader - nothing I do there does anything but take me to red ! screen.

Rebooting the phone normally just brings me straight to the red ! screen after showing me the htc EVO 4G white intro screen.

I'm attaching amon_ra recovery [I run clockwork, but this works just as well]
Take the battery off, and mount your sd card to your computer via adapter, put that file on the root of the sd card, do not modify or extract it. Once done, start the phone up and boot into the bootloader, it should ask you if you want to update, and say yes.

Ok, downloaded, added to card. Upon booting into bootloaded, it reads the .zip and then just kicks me back to the bootloader. It won't ask if I want to update at all.
Also, I can give some more info on the phone real quick:
Supersonic EVT2-3 Ship S-ON
HBOOT-2.10.0001
MICROP-041f
TOUCH PANEL-ATMELC03_16ac

The only real way is to run the RUU.
Try running the 3rd option.
http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/ Let me know what happens.

Ok, downloading a stock rom and going to rename it to update.zip. Hopefully I can get that to work through the Android recovery.

I haven't heard that method, but I'll be around so I'll check back in, in a couple.

Ok, the "update.zip" file opens, but then says "Signature Verification Failed".
How do I run the RUU? While the device has the red ! screen?

You need a factory reset PCIMG36.zip of the RUU I believe.

In the recovery, where it says install from zip, scroll down to signature verification, and select it to toggle it off, so it doesn't check and it should run.
Boot into the bootloader, and select fastboot, then run the RUU exe.

Neither of these worked. However, with my screen just at the HTC Evo "white" screen, I was getting the error "Your battery is under 30%" when I ran the RUU*.exe file on my comp. I switched to a different battery (with an unknown charge) and tried, but got the same. Have one of the batteries charging right now, so maybe that will change my luck??
I'm downloading the stock RUU PC36IMG right now (I think), too.

It is a very bad idea to try different root methods one right after another and to randomly flash stuff unless you are purposely trying to brick your phone. The bootloader stopped you from doing just that when it locked you in the black htc screen but if you would have had your nand unlocked you may not have been so lucky.
If you flash the 3.70 RUU so that you have a clean start you should be able to root fine. There's no telling if you will still have 4G or if anything has became permanently corrupted though. Just run it as a normal exe, do not use it as an PC36IMG.

Ok, Holy Mary Mother of Tebow, but I'm finally out of the pseudo-brick state.

G2 is semi-bricked because my brother was going to permanently root the G2 and right when the process finished, is when the phone was semi-bricked because he "forgot" a step (great -_- human error)
Just a few things:
Yeah i can go into recovery (VOL down + Power Button) but, im a noob at recovery things, so i dont know how or what to use or do like i said, i've researched a lot and done the steps that i read online and still nothing, so i rather get answers/help from great people in here (i heard this forum is really smart/good at Android stuff)

explain your semi bricked status... how do you know its semi bricked? which step did he miss?
also you be better off asking in guide how to recover semi bricked phone rather than asking in Q & A....experienced mods usually follow that thread and reply to ppl who have queries

it wont go into the Android OS, it just stays stuck at HTC. No further. And he didnt tell me, but he watched a video on youtube.

here is the link to the desire z /G2 wiki...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision
go straight to the rooting section and try to find out which method was he using to root your phone... when you narrow that down try to find which step he missed.....when all thats done than either post here exactly which method was he using and which step he missed.....or post in the semi bricked page.....
right now the most current recommended method is using Gfree...
also try to see if you have access to your recovery and if clockworkmod recovery is installed or not....
for that take out your battery and put it back in.... hold volume down and power button....
it will boot into boot loader
give it few seconds to display that "waiting for SD card Pb10.img not found"
than use volume down button to navigate to recovery and use power button as click selection..... if it boots up into clockworkmod recovery than you have custom recovery installed

Yeah i dont have CWM installed, just checked. And what my brother told me is that he was "temporary rooted" then he tried to "perm root", but actually, he didnt go to youtube, he tried to perm root using the VISIONary method.

check wiki for htc vision ... for how to fix errors during rooting.....
also if you wanna root gfree is recommended software lately..... check wiki to confirm.....
also try factory reset.... by turning phone off... than holding power button and volume up and down button .... i think.....confirm via wiki

Well i also cant do any adb steps because adb doesnt detect my G2 (although it detects it when im in recovery (the menu with a phone and red exclamation point) but it says its offline) i can only use fastboot
and btw my G2 is S-ON
and i have done factory resets and nothing

I'm not as experianced as a lot of the but have you tryed the pc10img via fast boot? That might work scince everything is stock on your phone
/edit have you gone the the adb guides it took me a few times but I finally got it...adb looks the best way to go

it might be because you tried the 1.12 verison pc10img.zip and your phone came with updated 1.19 version
PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_1.19.531.1_Radio_12.21.60.09b _26.02.01.15_M2_release_149459_signed.zip
try this one by putting in your sd card. your phone should flash it and it shouldnt say version is older...
download from here
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vision
when you put it in sd card rename it to just PC10img.zip and reboot into bootloader and when it asks you to flash. let it flash

I'll try that right now, but I think I did use the 1.19 one but can't recall.
I'll edit this post to tell you if it works

# Rename the file to “update.zip” (If you don’t see the file extension, assume it’s already in zip format and just name the file ‘update’)
# Transfer the file to the root of the SD card (in no folder)
# Turn G2 off.
# Turn G2 on by holding power and holding volume down. Once it boots, you’ll be given a white screen with Androids skateboarding. Wait for the green text to flash on the screen, and then by using your volume up and down keys, go to recovery and press the power button,
# The phone will reboot itself into recovery, and you will see a black screen with a phone and a red triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle. We need to see the text in the recovery, so at the same time press the power button and volume up. It may take a few tries.
# Once the text appears, using the volume rocker, navigate to Apply sdcard:update.zip
# Let it install and reboot your phone.

Alright ill try that out thanks
EDIT:Hmm...thats strange. Right after it checks the PC10IMG.zip ,it doesnt tell me anything else, it just goes back to the recovery menu (where it shows Fastboot, Recovery, Factory Reset etc.) shouldnt it say if i wanted to update?

Well I think it loads the pc10 and then auto does it it might ask first tho I'm not sure...there have been issues with windows 7abd what os are you running?

How would I know that? No conformation message or anything comes up :/ and 64-bit (which I read is the one that has the most problems)

[Q] OMG - can't open recovery cache on evo

HI - I pray that some can help me resolve my issues. I had to return my phone to sprint for another, this morning I received my new phone and started the recovery process unfortuanely in the middle of it i remember that did not back up my orginal system. Now I have this error "can't open recovery cache" when I attemt to enter in to rooting steps. it aborts on each try. Can some pleaseover me some advise on how I can gain access to my recovery rom so I can complete my rooting process?

If you're trying to restore the backup of your old phone, I HIGHLY don't recommend it.
Can you just not get into recovery?

No Sir I am not, I have no way of gaining access to the recovery system, my phone is functional but I have no way to go into recovery program. I have made a terrible mistake, once I hold the volume button down and attempt to enter hboot it simple locks with the 2-phased dark battery with the big red triangle.
this is the message i get
E:CAN't open /cahe/revoery/comand
---Install from sdcard
Finding update cae...
Opening updae packge...
Verying update package.
E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory)
E:signature verification failed
Installation aborted.
That's the entire message
Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated

Lawlz, no need for sir.
I don't feel like re-uploading the file, but second the second post here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1062442
Place the file on your sdcard, as it is, not renamed, not extracted, ect. Boot into the bootloader, it'll scan, apply update, reboot, reboot into recovery, and you'll be on amon_ra 2.3.
The ! is you trying to get into recovery, but you're on stock recovery, which is no recovery. And you are rooted, s-off?

Do you have root access in your rom? You can try installing a recovery image from ROM manager or find the AmonRa thread on here and flashing the PC36IMG.zip from that thread from within hboot.
teh roxxorz beat me to it...

I have attempt to use the recovery manager - it force closes
I have attempt to use the terminal manager - commands not recongized
I will attempt to upload the link provided and let you know

Aye aye cappy, we'll be lurking.

Sniff, sniff nothing still the same errors

Well no luck, I have purchased the rom manager- it forecloses, I have downloaded, installed and rebooted to bootloader no luck, I have tryed everything i know which is very little. I guess I should consider my lucky that I have a funtional phone, but I will have no access to the recovery mode so i can root it. sigh....
To answer your previous questions
The ! is you trying to get into recovery - Yes that is when i get the error
, but you're on stock recovery, which is no recovery.
And you are rooted, s-off? - No I not rooted yet
I was trying root my new phone when i got myself into this mess,

In the bootloader, your phone is s-off, correct?

What method of rooting were you using, and which recovery did you try flashing? As teh roxxorz asked, your hboot is s off right? It sounds like your best bet will be to run an RUU and start over again.

That's why its not working, you're not rooted.
http://unrevoked.com/recovery/ < use unrevoked
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install < install these hboot drivers first
Make sure usb debugging is enabled on your phone, settings > applications > development
Then connect the phone to the pc in charge on, run unrevoked, and you'll be good to go.

This is what I am seeing when I attempt to enter recovery on my phone

That means you have no recovery, and you have no recovery because you aren't rooted. if you follow the instructions I posted above, you'll be good.

Sigh... I was in the process of performing this when I got into trouble, I have the andriod bootloader install, I power down and reboot using volume down key and power, once there I allow the system to perform system check then I select hboot, I have inserted usb cord once this process start and directily run unvoked3. What occurs then is it is not recongizing my phone for some reason and just sits there in limbo for 15 to 20 minutes. I have also unistalled htc sync, cleanded files, and reboot 3 times. I will continue and maybe i will get lucky

You need to turn the phone on, normally, boot into the phone, then connect the phone in charge only, do that, and run it again.

You run unrevoked when the phone is booted normally, not from the hboot screen....
