(Q) Auto root? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I just got done running this Auto Root method on my new Evo, and all went well. But it says it flashes the Sprint Lovers ROM, and when it flashed it, it also flashed my radio. Before my PRL had 60679, now it has changed to 60662? Is this supposed to happen? And can I update my PRL now that I'm on this Sprint Lovers ROM?

Correct. Firmware and software updates will kill your root and your rom.

Thanks guys!
Yeah for the updates just flash the .zips associated with what you want, for otas usually your Rom dev has it same day if sometimes early, he will update your Rom for you and you will keep root

Try pulling your battery and then try again. Also be sure you have a good signal when you do it. Prl is up to 60677 now. You should be able to update. You should try updating the profile first, and then the prl.

PRI 1.77

I just unrooted my wife's evo so I
can take it to sprint. When it was rooted I flashed PRI1.77 . Well now that I'm unrooted it still says 1.77. Is there a way to update date that without the phone being rooted?

Well, you can try doing a system update, and that should update it, if not, you can:
1. Re-root, flash 1.90, unroot
2. Just say she never updated the phone.

Really stuck

I have tried about every Rom based on the new gingerbread leak and for some reason 3g won't work I always have to use WiFi. Please help

I'd suggest ruu then reprovision data services. I believe you can flash the leak without wiping userdata.
Although data settings are in the nv items, it may be a Rom issue.

After flashing the roms, did you go into the settings menu to update your profile? Are you using the default kernels?

Try this: Do you have a nandroid backup of a previous setup in which 3G worked? If so, nandroid back to it and double check. If 3G works, great. Now, if you still want to try one of the Gingersense leaks, download the one from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1035438 and place it on your SD card. Now go into recovery, wipe EVERYTHING except the SD card itself and then flash the rom. Hopefully, it'll do well for you.

Cannot download Synergy..

For some reason every time I go to flash synergy it fails, can someone get me a different link? Thanks

Update your hboot.
Unless you are already on a current version...
So when it asks me to update, that's not an ota update but a hboot update?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I don't see a reason to updating hboot. Never changed it once and I flashed everything fine. I know the droid incredible needed an updated hboot but I believe this does not apply for the evo.

I would think that is an OTA update. If you really, really wanna update ur h-boot go to:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485
Knew it didn't sound right..but really, won't let me flash synergy rom and the directory is empty? How is that possible?

I'd wager that if you flash everything fine you aren't on one of the original hboot versions.
Mine was unlisted in Caulkin's master thread, and I had to update before some of the newer roms would flash. YMMV but I was just trying to help.
