Thanks in advanced.
Put the file I attached on your sdcard and boot into the bootloader, select update, reboot, then reboot into recovery and you'll be on amon_ra 2.3. That image is that you tried to boot into recovery, but there is no recovery.

That means that you don't have a custom recovery installed. Did you have a recovery prior to this? If you're still rooted, and your bootloader shows S-off, all you need to do is flash a custom recovery. Power your phone off. Boot to the bootloader, confirm that it shows S off. If so, cool, you just need recovery. I would use Amon Ra 2.3, it's the most reliable recovery in my opinion. I'll attatch a PC36IMG of Amon Ra 2.3. You need to download it, confirm that it's named exactly PC36IMG, and put it on the main directory of your sd card. Power your phone off, and boot to the bootloader. It will scan, and then ask you to update. Select volume up for yes. It will flash the recovery, then when it's finished, select recovery from the bootloader. You should no longer have the triangle, and now it should be a black screen, green letters, and say amon ra supersonic 2.3 or something like that, at the bottom. Make your nandroids, do your wiping and flashing from there. Good luck.

Very cool guys, thanks a bunch.
So I need to download a separate app to do back ups?
Sorry I am confused, the Hero was a little bit easier for me to figure out. IDK why this phone is giving me a hard time.
If there isa video on how to do a back up.
(EDIT) I guess I am not making myself clear. I need to know how to perform a proper back up so that once I download the new rom I have a back up incase I mess up some how.
Thanks in advanced.
Well, on amon_ra 2.3 First make a separate backup of your wimax, and then copy it to your pc for safe keeping. Then make another with everything, except the wimax...you need the first 3 options, but everything after that is at your discretion.
Edit: Well you need titanium backup [personally] recommend to backup your apps.

You boot into recovery and select backup/restore and backup if on clockwork, nandroid if on amon_ra
Im not on either? I guess. I used z4 to root. Is that my problem. I decided to start messing around with my phone again today and it got stuck on that screen of the photo I posted again. So I unhooked my battery and now it continues to boot into that screen. Any help for this? Thanks in advanced guys/gals.
Nevermind, I figured out that is I held down my volume button when I powered up it allowed me to go into that menu and then I unhooked the battery and it was able to boot up that way. Still need a link or explanation on what Amon RA is.
http://noobgui.de/wiki/index.php?title=How_to_nandroid_backup_with_Amon_RA
So what don't you understand?
I do the steps on the wiki and this comes up
So I guess I dont have amonRA, and I don't know how to get it.

Ah, no recovery. Flash the PC36IMG in the bootloader, apply update, reboot, then reboot into recovery and you'll be on amon_ra 2.3
You can also flash it from rom manager, but rom manager is only on version 2.2 of amon_ra.
Okay, wow thank you. I totally missed that earlier.
Never a problem man.
I am running my virtual window to download the file (I hate macs and androids dont like each other)
And my virtual box wont find my phone so I am having to email it to my self.

okay, i've searched the forums and couldnt find anything on this, so don't flame me for posting this. I just tried to backup a ROM in CWM Recovery on my permrooted and S-off G2. it got to "Backing up system" and then said "Can't mount /system/!" and stopped the backup. is there something i'm not doing right here?

Which ROM are you using?
i was using a Gingerbread ROM, and i booted into recovery to make a backup so i could try a MoDaCo ROM. i tried doing the backup and it said "can't mount /system/!".. but i havent been able to reproduce the issue. maybe it was a one-time thing.
I have been experiencing this problem for over a week now. Same error I receive when I try to flash a file using Rom manager.
This problem happened to me after running fix permissions in Rom manager. I've had no luck on this good thing I have my phone stable.
Thanks for any help on this.
I'm runninng ROM CM 6.1.1

Your problem is that the Gingerbread ROM uses EXT as its format instead of yaffs. CWM was written with yaffs in mind. I had the same problem with the Gingerbread ROM, but I was able to get the Froyo ROM back on and CWM worked again.

Try flashing it through recovery. I only use ROM Manager to download the ROMs in question.
I am having the exact same problem. Gingervillian 1.5. So the solution is to go back to the froyo rom and this will fix itself? Forgive me I am a noobie.
you need to flash CWM3.0 or above. flashing ginerbread formats system into ext4. earlier versions of CWM on read up to ext3.
thanks button at the bottom.
I want to tap the thanks button -- i really do -- but I am running version 3.0.0.7, I am not sure if that is the answer. Thanks for the fast response by the way.
Now the recovery is listed as clockworkmod 2.5.1.3 -- but I cant find any later versions.

No that is not the awnser, you are running Rom Manager 3.0.0.7, you need to install ClockWorkMod Recovery 3.0.0.5 they are two diffrent things, you will know if you have flashed ClockWorkMod Recovery 3.0.0.5 by booting into recovery and if the letters are green you do not have the right recovery for GingerBread, the letters will be orange if you have CWM recovery 3.0.0.5(GingerBread Recovery) installed.
Here is a LINK to the CWM recovery for Gingerbread 3.0.0.5
You need to flash the new recovery (CWM 3.0.0.5) in Fastboot mode or use the Flash_image method(this will work for any of the Gingerbread Roms CM7, GingerVillian, etc.).

This is CLockWorkMod Recovery 3.0.0.5 for Gingerbread 2.3 Roms.
This is ClockWrokMod recovery 2.5.1.3 for Froyo 2.2 Roms.
You are a $%^# animal! Damn that worked like a champ. This android stuff is like greek to me but I am amazed at what many in these forums know.
Thanks again and here is your thanks!
I tried the flash_image method but it did't work (got stuck at white screen with htc logo when rebooted). I was lucky to be able to reflash 2.5.1.3 from Rom manager. I'm running a gingerbread rom (which I love) but I dont have the guts to try out the fastboot method (eng hboot is scary stuff..).
Huh... if u of clock work u should download a rom then mount ur sdcard put the rom in ur sdcard and flash the new rom with clockwork.

It doesn't matter now. ROM Manager is flashing 3.0.0.5, which now works with Gingerbread and Froyo ROMs.
Ok, maybe a stupid question, but I'm running 2.5.1.3 and I clearly need to update my Rom Manager. I've tried redownloading it, but it always launches as 2.5.1.3. I notice that there is an option when I launch it which says Flash ClockworkMod Recovery. Is that what I need to choose to update to the latest version? I don't want to click it and find out it reformats to phone or something.
EDIT: I figured I might as well click it and find out what happens. Turns out that is the solution. I'm now able to back up CM 7.0.3. Whew!!
Hi Im running ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.0 and I tried to flash syndicateROM Frozen 1.1.0 to my Epic 4g. I wiped the data three times as well as the cache and dalvik cahe. What the phone does is it loads to the "SAMSUNG" screen and stays there. Ive tried to connect it to my pc in download mode to use odin and it tells me the device is malfunctioning and the device drivers didnt properly install. So now I feel stuck because i cant find any other ways around this issue...can some PLEASE HELP?? Also in CLockwork mode it says at the bottom "E:Can't open /cache/recovery/log"
Thanks in advanced and I apologize if this thread has been made already.
This doesn't belong in development.
You can't flash an EXT4 ROM on rfs clockwormod. Either flash an old nand backup then reroot with the newest one click root or use a prerooted tar in odin.
Texted while driving
Root with Clockwork Mod 3.0.0.5 or greater sir. You need to be on EXT4 for SRF if i'm not mistaken. ClockworkMod 2.5.1.0 is RFS still i believe. Also, inb4 this belongs in Q & A section.

Thank you, im going to attempt to flash an older rom. would you suggest one? im looking at DK28 hopefully it will work with my clockmod so ill be able to flash it and then reroot it and install the new clockmod.
Can't people read directions. Best thing to do is odin back to stock then root with the one click for eb13 then boot into recovery. Once its done converting to ext4 you have to flash a compatiabke ext4 kernel or it wont boot

I was in the EXACT same situation as you yesterday.
Just use Odin, it is super easy and fast.
Follow these directions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SPH-D700#Odin_Stock_Flashing
Except in step 5 where it wants you to get the "Stock DI18" rom, you instead want the newest EC05 rom (found here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PXBJ2JNH )
Once your all up and running with that restored rom, run this CWM3 one click: http://k0nane.info/rom/cwm3.zip
Then, finally, now that you are running CWM3 you can flash Syndicate 1.1.0

Lets not get snippy. everyone is tying to help. sounds like you might want to reinstall the samsung drivers. before you do, you might want to try to purging power from your phone. With battery out hold down your power button for 15 seconds a few times. then reinsert battery try to go into download mode for Odin.
If that doesn't work, reinstall samsung drivers and start over FOLLOWING directions in one of the many threads on stock recovery.

Must I unroot my EVO to do this upgrade?

Jeez, Bro, this is all over the forums. I mean, in every Evo section there is are multiple posts on the upgrade, which people have been getting, btw, since Friday morning.
I mean, I'm TRYING to be nice, for a change, but seriously.....
Try to actually READ through the goddamn thread titles before you post something so ridiculous.
sry for the Upset man, but I thought just maybe I could get a quick and easy answer without reading through pages and pages. Just wanted to know what this update actually is since its from HTC and not Sprint. Guess it was too much to ask.
Regards.....
Yes, you're good to update. Just accept, and let it do its thing. Should have gb. Have fun!
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Go ahead and accept the OTA, do not unroot. That should update your radios too, and your HBoot.
You will need to flash AmonRa or ClockworkMod as a PC36IMG, go to those threads in development.
Then I would suggest you download a rooted version of the OTA or go to Synergy or MikG, they are Gingersense with Sense 2.1!

Thx fella's but it sounds too complicated for me. Ima not that techy. If unrevoked3 was more complicated than 1 file, I wouldn't be rooted atm. Flashing and all that is over my head atm.

You got basiclly two options, With Clockwork as ur recovery (Part of unrevoked) The OTA won't just install. you can procced with one of the following methods.
I did this for the last 2 updates for the evo Not counting this one as I moved on to Sense 2.1 (much better then what HTC is providing for evo)
Before you start make sure u Nandroid Your current setup so u can always fall back to that if there are problems. (reboot into recovery and select make nandroid)
Option 1.
1. Buy Root Explorer from market
2. Navigate to /Cache (I think)
3. Copy the Supersonic_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH.zip to ur sd card
4. Reboot into recovery (Power + sound down)
5. Choose flash zip from SD and choose the official update u copied to ur sd card in step 3
6. Be Patient
7. If Clockwork errors, reboot phone and use rom manager to install RA Recovery and repeat step 5 and 6
8. Once the flash is complete reboot phone
9. Be Patient
10 be patient
11. Ur phone will eventually finish the upgrade process volia!
12. You would be unrooted, and non of ur rooted stuff would work, you would need to reinstall a custom recovery and then flash the superuser app again.
Option 2:
1. Head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1038701
2. Download the ODEX version of the Update
3. Reboot into recovery
4a. To be safe I would wipe cache 2X and Dalvik cache 2X (Recomend RA Recovery), or
4b. you could flash the 4.22.651.2 Wipe from the link above I am guessing that is what that does since it says no data wipe.
5. Flash the Update zip
6. Be patient
7. Be patient
To update radios after Update has been applied: Download PC36.img from link above, and save to root of sd card, Shutdown phone Power on Holding down volume buton and wait until it tells u update found then choose to apply it.

Go here and download,these are themed recoveries,just download the one you want and make sure it says PC36IMG.ZIP,put it on your sd card root and boot into bootloader and flash,this wont give you any problems.

Download,flash image GUI, from the play store(it's like a dollar) then download the image file of the recovery you want to flash(should be posted in smelkus's thread) and use the app to flash. Otherwise you will need to get s off again, before flashing.

How does flashing a ROM make you go from S-Off to S-on?

From what I have gathered he did not flash a rom but he flashed the PC36IMG.zip style ruu. To his bad luck it happened to be on with a newer HBOOT inside it which leaded to losing s-off.

If I were you, I'd go with one of the GB Hybrid ROMs. Try the one in my signature. It's a good one to start with and read my Evo Guide (Also in my signature).
If you want everything to work (front camera, netflix, Wimax, hdmi out) then you can only use gingerbread. If you don't use most of those the list of roms is limitless. They are all pretty good.

Hello, I was flashing a couple roms last night and I decided after trying Paranoid Android Legacy and CarbonROM that I just wanted to do a clean wipe and go back to Cyanogenmod. Doing a full wipe has never been a problem for me except now in CWM I can't get root to stick, no matter what I do, and whenever I'm in recovery, I can't adb push or sideload anything to my device. I even tried installing drivers through Zadig to make a connection and that didn't work. Anyone know how I can get root to stick?

Use Philz Recovery. It is the best one out there. Even has an option to push root in Philz Settings.

Am I going to have to use Odin or Heimdall? I'm not really good with either one of those, but it seems like the only choice I have.

Neither. Download the recovery that ends in ".zip" (there are three different files, another is .tar) then go into recovery and flash it. Then go to the "Reboot Recovery" option. And once it reboots you'll be in Philz Recovery.

But the problem is that I can't get anything pushed over to my phone while in recovery. Adb says it can't find my device, even though I have drivers installed for it.

Then use Mount USB under Mounts & Storage or boot the phone and download the file and go back to recovery and flash it.

I don't have that in my CWM. All I have is mount system, cache and data, and then format those along with data/media. I formatted everything, literally everything, all I have is recovery. Its never been an issue before though, so I dunno what the issue is.

I can't flash a rom because I can't push or sideload and I don't really make backups hah

Actually, I just got Heimdall to work with flashing PhilZ and now I'm able to mount USB storage. I personally think Odin is garbage but that's just me

At least you got Philz installed now just make backups ever so often....
Yeah, make at least one of backup so you don't get stuck in this situation again. Really, you should be making a backup before you flash anything, every time.
