I've followed Toast's Parts 1 and 2 explicitly, and now want to flash the latest Fresh 2.2 build 3.1.0.1.
I've got the .zip file, "fresh-evo-3.1.0.1.zip" but am not sure how to install it. Should I rename the entire thing to PC36IMG.zip and place on the SD Card?

I'm not sure how much more concise than Freshz detailed install instructions, but you DO NOT rename it, you just put it on the root of your sd card, and boot into your bootloader, either with quick boot, or with power and the volume up key. then use your bootloader to do a wipe of data, cache, and dalvick cache, as well as any ext partitions, but since you just rooted, you probably don't have one, then you choose to flash zip file, point it to freshz rom and let it do its thing, and if you haven't done so you want to update your radio, and wimax both are available in Flipz thread

HEHE Totally understandable, it is an expensive investment, Freshz's rom's are very good, i'm sure you will enjoy it. One word of advice, you sound new, so if you do need to flash your radio, please find the thread about how to do so and read it completely till you understand it before doing it. It is very simple, but it is also the greatest chance for bricking your device, for the love of god don't remove your battery while flashing the radio. Good luck
Got it all finished, everything installed without error thank heavens. The only thing I don't know how to do is confirm my installed WiMax version.
I'm new to android, coming from the htc diamond/windows mobile.
I'm super interested in getting the bloatware off of my evo, so I want to root and flash a new rom.
I decided to try out unrevoked method of root, because im new to the android platform and it seems super easy.
I ran the program. It does a fair amount of work, but after the first reboot (which doesn't reboot to bootloader) it says it's pushing root, then says that communications were interrupted unexpectedly, try again.
I have tried again and again...have found that many people don't like the unrevoked/clockwork method anyway, and have decided to go manual.
Now, in bootloader, I can see that I have s-off, but since I decided to use a one-click method, I don't really know what else to do. I guess I have security turned off, but do I have root?

I've read of a lot of people having that issue with Unrevoked, but strangely enough, I've used it many many times, and have never had an issue. Just gotta make sure there are no programs on your computer that can 'talk' to the phone through USB while its happening (htc sync, dropbox, pdanet, music syncing, etc) and have the correct hboot drivers installed.
Anyways, to answer your question, if you are already showing S off, then I'd say you just need to flash a recovery. What happens when you select recovery from the bootloader at this point in time? Do you just get the red triangle? What I would do is put this PC36IMG on your sd card ( its Amon Ra Recovery, V2.3, which better than clockwork in my opinion) Make sure it's on the main directory of your card, and that its named exactly PC36IMG. Boot into the bootloader, and it should then scan and find the PC36IMG and ask you to update. Hit volume up to say yes, and let it flash. That will flash the recovery. Once that finished, try going to recovery and see if everything went smoothly. If so, you should be good to start flashing roms, kernels, removing bloat etc.
If you do still want to do it the manual way, then before doing so, I suggest undoing what Unrevoked did before starting, getting back to stock. To do that, flash the Unrevoked S on tool, to turn S back to on. Then run a PC36IMG of a factory ROM or run an RUU. That will put you completely back to stock, so you can start fresh with whatever method you want to try. Good luck.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060&highlight=hboot-0.97+ruu
EDIT: also added the Unrevoked S On tool, in case you want to get back to stock, however, you do need a custom recovery installed in order to flash that.
Interesting.
Before going to the easier one-click method from unrEVOked, I did use the pc36img on the sd card. I was in bootloader, I saw it checking the sd card, I saw the blue status bar on the right, but was never asked if I wanted to update. rather, it said that my 'main recovery was newer' ...or something
i just tried the file pc3... file that you gave me and i got the update!
ok so: i have s-off, and i flashed the recovery (that's what I just did, right?)
next, i'm going to go into bootloader and select recovery? that is to make sure that everything went smoothly?

Exactly. That is correct. Let me know what happens when you select recovery now. It should take you to Amon Ra's recovery screen, which is all black with green lettering. If that's the case, then you are rooted, S-off, with custom recovery installed. At that point, I'd boot into the ROM, and make sure everything is operating as normal. If it is, i would go back to the bootloader, select recovery again, and choose backup/restore, to create a nandroid backup (backs up the entire system), so you have a good and working nandroid backup from the point you are currently at right now, which is stock rom, rooted with recovery.
yes i did it and I got the good recovery screen. at the bottom it said amon ra custom recovery (or something like that).
I'll get my backup next!!
Thanks bro.
Last question. RUU is rom update utility just like winmo right? i will just have to run the utility in order to flash a new rom?

Don't run the RUU. RUU will restore you back to stock UNrooted. You are good to go on installing and flashing new Roms just as you are, just boot into recovery and do what you need to in there.

Sweet, glad it worked for you. As the other guy said, don't run the RUU. I'm not familiar with WinMo, but with Android, you definitely ONLY run RUU if you want to get back to stock unrooted, to bring in for service or something. That will make your phone look like the day you took it out of the box. To flash ROMS on an Evo, you do it all from that custom recovery. You wipe everything from within recovery (data, davlik cache, cache), then select "flash zip from sd card", find your ROM in there (you'd have put it on the sd card ) then choose it and let it flash. Thats it. Happy flashing!
ahhh so i don't even have to unzip the roms anymore....
p.s. performed a successful nandroid backup

Precisely. No unzipping the roms at all. You basically just download it, don't unzip/extract it or anything. Drop the (zipped) zip on the main directory of your sd card, boot to recovery, select flash zip, find rom, and thats it. Again, I'm not familiar with winmo at all, so I'm not sure on what the wiping procedures were with that. However, a good rule of thumb here is any time you are going to change a ROM, it is highly recommended to do a complete wipe (wipe data/factory reset, davlik cache, and cache). I also flash calkulins format all.zip, which also wipes boot and system. A fresh and clean wipe gives the new ROM you're about to try the best chance to run the best it can. When you flash anything else at all, such as a kernel, theme, modification etc, you just need to wipe davlik cache and cache. Only a full wipe on ROM changes. I'll attatch calkulin's format all.zip. It's a zip file taht you flash in recovery, and it then wipes everything (except your sd card, it won't touch that)
Hey folks
I have had my evo since day 1 and rooted on day 3.
I do not recall what method I used to root or anything for the matter.
anyways, what I want to accomplish right now is to clean my SD
I am seeing alot of folders with nothing it, others with 1 file in it.
Beside that, it's all through my SD card
Also, not sure if it is recommended, but I like to reset or clean out the internal memory as well.
to make it easier, I want to delete everything. like a full format, even if I have to unroot. I dont mind re-rooting and putting a new ROM in.
I just want to make sure, when I flash a new rom, all the stuff in my SD from before is gone!
did that make any sense? if so, how can I accomplish this
(oh and the reason I am doing this, my phone has been acting weird lately. EPST isnt working, tons of force close, im draining battery like crazy... I am seeing new "apps" in my task manager...etc...
(incoming metaphor)
so, like a computer
I just want to format my entire HD, reinstall window XP and have nothing saved from my previous time (except phone # which is saved with google)

You can format your sd card from within a Rom and will wipe it clean. When you wipe all data in recovery, it wipes your internal memory.

This makes no sense to me atm, than again I am thinking as if this is a PC....
if I was to format my SD card which also wipes my internal memory, than how do I boot back into my phone since the rom got formatted???
I like to format but I also need to know what files do I need to put back in the SD card to run my phone again
When you format your SD Card, you can still boot up and the necessary files will write themselves to the SD Card.
The best thing is to run the RUU for your phone.
Here's a link to all the ruu's. Bookmark this site, btw. He keeps it updated.
http://goo.im/stock/supersonic/ruu
Running RUU means restoring the phone to out-of-the-box condition.
If by day one you mean Evo Release day, then you rooted with Unrevoked. IF I Remember correctly, running the ruu will not make your phone S-On, so you can reflash recovery (I advise Smelkus Amon Ra Style) and then wipe everything and flash the ROM you want to use.
Of course, since you'll be using a newly formatted SD Card, you'll have to put a recovery on the card so it'll be there for you to flash.

as far as root method: I dont recall which one I used.
IIRC isn't Unrevoked a .exe file or app and you press the button and it unroots it for you??? If so, I didn't use that. I had to go through a long way, I remember reading a how to guide with pictures.

Ok, completely new with this. I did a basic root, got superuser cwm and busybox from my understanding. I used Samsung Galaxy Toolkit v7.0.0
I would like to install the MoAR onto my phone. But I'm not 100% sure how to do so. I have Odin v3.4, I was going to do it as a PDA file. But I don't see anything that says it's a .tar file.
If someone could point me in the right direction, or a video would be great.

I'm going to assume you're able to boot into a custom recovery (CWM). I persoanlly use TWRP, but either will work well for this. If you can't go through the root process again, based on qbking77's thread. Check out the videos and learn how to use Odin to gain root and a custom recovery. (always good to take a refresher course).
Here are directions on how to flash a Rom below. The instructions will be for TWRP, but CWM has similar options/settings
Make sure the zip of the Rom you downloaded is on your externalSD Card or the root directory of your internal memory.
Turn your phone completely off (hold down power for 3-5 seconds)
Boot your phone into recovery. Hold Up, Menu, and Power for a few seconds (until SAMSUNG appears on your screen and the phone vibrates)
Make a Nandroid backup. I can't emphasize this enough. In flashing, it's a certainty that at least one time, something will mess up. When that happens, you want to be able to restore a backup. In TWRP, just go into Backup Menu and choose where you want it (internal vs. External storage). It takes my phone a few (5-10) minutes to completely backup my data.
In TWRP, click the wipe button, then system. This will completely wipe the Rom from your phone. Doing this will allow you to get a "clean" install, without any settings or leftover files from your old Rom getting in the way. Instead, you could only wipe data (factory reset), which is good enough for most Roms. I'd still recommend a system wipe, though, as you never know exactly what might be left over from your old Rom (especially when going from 4.1.X to 4.2.X or vice-versa).
Also while in the Wipe menu, wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache (can't hurt).
Go back to the TWRP main menu.
Click Install, then find your Rom zip file (may have to switch from internal to external storage).
Let TWRP do it's thing.
MOAR rom already installed. If, in the future, you flash an AOSP Rom, you should now flash the correct gapps package from goo.im. Make sure you're flashing the correct one, as if you don't, your google apps will force close upon use.
Reboot into system and give it time to boot (first boot sometimes takes a couple of minutes).
Set up your phone the way you like.
These should be the directions to follow whenever you flash a new Rom. Some Roms (such as the MOAR Rom) have the Aroma installer, so you'll have more options once you choose to flash the Rom zip, but those are typically easy to follow (and vary from Rom to Rom, so I won't be able to give you a good guide on that).
Hope this helps!
I could tell you but from what you're asking, honestly I think it's better not to and to force you to read a lot more. I am pretty new to this stuff too, joined this site in like march but I did about 3 weeks worth of reading before I rooted and flashed my first ROM. I'm not trying to be mean here but the question you're asking will be the least of your worries once you read a little more. I recommend you read this Q&A thread, it's also at the top of the Q&A forum.
Edit: It seems good guy topherk here gave you the info, I stand by what I said though, from a fellow newbie to another

Download the rom on your pc and transfer it to your sd card or internal sd card on your phone. Don't put the rom zip file in any folders as it's easier to find, commonly referred to as the root of your sd card. Power off your phone if your still on stock, after it shuts down hold the volume up button+the home button and then hold power button, this will take you to your custom recovery. First thing to do once in your recovery is make backup of your current rom, make sure you have at least 3GB free space on either your sd or internal sd, some backups can be even bigger, if you don't have space it should tell you. After your backup is done, wipe cache, dalvik cache, factory reset and then flash your rom, after it's done and you see it was successful, fix permissions and reboot...you should be good to go at that point. If all is running well you can boot back into cwm, select restore and only restore /data, to get all your apps and their data back, fix permissions again and reboot. You can use titanium backup or my backup root /pro to restore apps and data but personally I don't prefer those methods. If you have any issues, restore your backup and try again.
I see I was slow again as topherk said everything and then some lol...still posting this just in case it helps at all.
Edit; just to throw it out there I'll tell you how I do things, once your more experienced this could make flashing roms, kernels, tweaks ect, easier. I always make a backup first before I switch roms. Then I simply wipe cache, dalvik cache, flash new rom and fix permissions....reboot and enjoy, this is known as a dirty flash, some roms don't dirty flash well, some work great.
Also I always 100% of the time download roms, kernels ect straight from my phone, never had a bad download that I'm aware of, I don't check md5 sums, I just verify the size of the dl matches what I dl'd. My dl's go to my download folder on my ext sd card so when I go into recovery, I know to look in my download folder on the ext sd card.
Other things to note about dirty flashing if you choose to do it, figure out your rom issues quietly and it can't hurt to try dirty flashing if you always remember rule#1.....make a backup first. If you get stuck in a boot loop, just pull the battery, put it back in and 3 button boot to recovery and restore your backup.
Yeah, the main reason I prefer a clean flash is that when people dirty flash, any and all problems will not be supported by the developer. And since the person is asking how to flash a Rom, I doubt that they'd know what to do with a FC. I'd prefer if they would do a clean flash until they get used to it. I do all my app backups in Titanium Backup, and even then I have to be careful not to restore something that might mess up the new Rom.
Anyways, I really liked your advice with the backups: if you're ever stuck in a bootloop, you can just restore your backup. I recently tried out a new Rom that I wasn't too fond of, and in a few minutes was back to my LiquidSmooth. No sweat.

Are you sure you data was actually wiped? I went through something similar on my Verizon 10, installed the U.S Unlocked firmware from the same thread as you, and when I rebooted I had no ROM and couldn't see my internal SD card in TWRP anymore . Restoring old fw didn't work either. Flashing the no-wipe RUU from dottat's thread did work though, and I was able to re-access all my data without any loss.
For what it's worth, it was mentioned in the CM thread that after changing CID and flashing a new fw, you have to format your SD card anyway for a ROM to work.

Here's what I would do. If you have already done any of the steps I list just skip them.
1. Back up important data if you wish.
2. Install firmware package. I am a sprint user, I used 1.95.403.1 international firmware. I removed the radio.img and edited the android-info.txt file to match my MID.
3. In TWRP, go to wipe, and format data, type yes and click enter.
4. Check your log by clicking the hamburger menu button in the bottom right corner. If you see red text like Mounting error for preload and cache, wipe them either with fastboot (I haven't done that) or, what I did was install LeeDroid, which wiped those partitions.
5. Install the ROM of your choice. (I've noted that I still had to use a Sprint specific kernel for my device, which makes me theorize that the firmware update zip might not change all partitions, which you'd need an RUU for to flash everything, I haven't tested that as my device works fine.)
6. Boot CM. Sometimes the screen will go dark, be patient with it, should boot in 5 minutes or less.
Try these and if they don't work, lemme know. I got nothing going on.

5. Install the ROM of your choice. (I've noted that I still had to use a Sprint specific kernel for my device, which makes me theorize that the firmware update zip might not change all partitions, which you'd need an RUU for to flash everything, I haven't tested that as my device works fine.)
6. Boot CM. Sometimes the screen will go dark, be patient with it, should boot in 5 minutes or less.
Try these and if they don't work, lemme know. I got nothing going on.

Everything is good, except the data icon in status bar shows that I do not have data... Any ideas on that?

Go to settings, Cellular settings, network operator, let it load, and select the Verizon option. Go home, then open the settings app again (without closing the other one), and select the CDMA+LTE/EvDo option. Check your APN.
