[ROOT] HTC EVO 4G 2.3 Gingerbread root tutorial - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Alright guys, this post is just for reference and ease. I've been using xda ever since I got my old HTC Hero a year and a half ago. Now I have the EVO and xda has been nothing but helpful to me. I've decided to make this post to try to help anyone that might not know much about android so I will make this a simple, easy to understand post tutorial.
HTC EVO 4G 2.3 Gingerbread root tutorial:
(Step 1) Power down your phone and take the battery out. Printed on the phone under the battery is a serial number. It is on the bottom line and usually starts with the letters: HT then a series of numbers and letters. Write this code down for you will need it later.
(Step 2) Download superuser from this link: http://www.mediafire.com/?q3ujsx1m4uq1662.
(Step 3) Download the HTC drivers from this link: http://api.viglink.com/api/click?for...13139469417033
(Step 4) Plug your phone to your computer and put the phone in disk drive mode. Now put the superuser .zip on the sdcard and change the mode to charge only.
(Step 5) Put the phone in usb debugging mode. Do this by: home>menu>settings>applications>development>usb debugging.
Also, enable fastboot. Do this by: home>menu>settings>applications>fastboot.
(Step 6) Got to: http://revolutionary.io/ Go down to the downloads section and select either windows or linux. (depending on your machine) Allow the file to download and proceed to the beta key generation.
(Step 7) Select your operating system (windows or linux) and your device and hboot version.
If you are unsure of your hboot version you can check by powering down your phone and holding volume down and the power button (make sure fastboot is turned off before doing this. just make sure to enable it again once you have checked and have the phone powered back up.)
Now enter your serial key (the code you got from under the battery.) select generate key and it will give you a beta key.
Make sure to keep the window open.
(Step 8) Extract the revolutionary.zip and run revolutionary. It should recognize your device and then ask for the beta key. Enter the beta key it gave you, remember it is case sensitive.
(Step 9) Revolutionary will now work its magic. Let it do its thing and DO NOT interrupt it. It may seem like it is frozen but it sometimes just takes a few minutes.
(Step10) After it gets done with all of its operations, revolutionary will ask if you want it to connect to the internet and download the recovery. type the letter "y" and hit enter. It will do it and then reboot.
(Step11) Now you need to flash the superuser .zip. Disable fastboot and and usb debugging and power down the device. Hold volume down and power at the same time until you get the hboot menu. It may check for an image and shouldn't find one. Just let it do its thing. Volume down and select recovery. It will reboot into recover. Now just volume down to install .zip then select choose .zip from sdcard and choose the su 2.3.6.3 efgh signed.zip and select yes. It will flash it. When it is done just reboot.
Congratulations. You are now rooted with superuser and s-off and have full root access.
Thank you, xda. I am grateful for this forum of great and helpful people, without you guys my android life would would be simply mediocre.

You don't need to get the s/n from behind the battery. When you run Revolutionary, it outputs the serial number immediately before the prompt requesting a beta key. Plus, the format of the s/n is a little confusing, and if you don't enter the s/n exactly as Revolutionary expects, you'll get an invalid Beta key error and have to restart Revolutionary. You can cut and paste the s/n and the key to keep things simple. Also, make sure to check if there's a market update of Superuser once you install it via the zip file. I was able to fix an issue of frequent force closes this way.

Oh yeah, and the phone should be in Charge Only mode with debugging, not disk drive.

[Q] Need help Rooting

I have been searching and reading, but I still am unsure of which rooting method I should use. I just got my "new" EVO on Friday. Here are my specs:
HBoot 2.2
Hardware 0003
Baseband 2.15.00.09.01
Kernal [email protected]#17
Software 3.30.651.3
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
You have two choices:
option 1. Follow the directions and root your phone using these instructions that I copied from the thread below and use the following link to download the correct files: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045)
option 1 is not recommended for a noob...
option 2. Wait for unrevoked to come out with their update to unrevoked 3. If you wait, almost all of the root process will be automated. Unrevoked should be releasing this update in the next couple of weeks or so. They have been tweeting about it.
Directions from option 1 copied from thread link above:
1. Make sure that you downloaded and installed HTC Sync from HTC website.
2. Unzip hboot202-s_off-V71.zip to a folder in your C: drive. I used C:\hroot
3. This hroot folder should have a folder inside it called root. If you have a folder called hboot202-s_off-V71 then you need to move all the files from that subfolder to c:\hroot.
4. In Vista/7 slick on the start button and type in cmd. You will see in the program list the command prompt. Right click and open as Administrator.
5. In the command prompt type cd c:\hroot
6. On phone goto-> Setting>Applications>Debugging make sure usb debugging is on.
7. Connect the usb cable to your computer and phone. The phone should change it's screen to ask you what type of connection mode you want. Make sure that it is on charge only. Do not mount.
8. Type into the command prompt: adb push root/unrevoked-forever.zip /sdcard/ After a pause you should see a confirmation message that states the file size and transfer speed when the file is done being pushed.
9. Type into the command prompt: adb push root/mtd-eng.img /sdcard/ After a pause you should see a confirmation message that states the file size and transfer speed when the file is done being pushed.
10. Type into the command prompt: adb push pc36img/PC36IMG-ENG.zip /sdcard/PC36IMG.zip After a pause you should see a confirmation message that states the file size and transfer speed when the file is done being pushed.
11. Type into the command prompt: adb push pc36img/PC36IMG-MR.zip /sdcard/PC36IMG-MR.zip After a pause you should see a confirmation message that states the file size and transfer speed when the file is done being pushed.
12. Type into the command prompt: adb push root/flash_image /data/local/ After a pause you should see a confirmation message that states the file size and transfer speed when the file is done being pushed.
13. Type into the command prompt: adb push root/rageagainstthecage /data/local/tmp After a pause you should see a confirmation message that states the file size and transfer speed when the file is done being pushed.
14. Type into the command prompt:adb shell You should see a $, this means that you are "in" the phone.
15. Type into the command prompt:chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage You should see this echoed on your screen. This is normal. You should still have $ on your cmd line.
16. Type into the command prompt: chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image You should see this echoed on your screen. This is normal. You should still have a $ on your cmd line.
17. Type into the command prompt:./data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage A message will pop up on the screen. It will take a few seconds, and your will be kicked "out" of the phone. The $ should now be gone.
18. Type into the command prompt: adb shell You should have a # on your command line instead of a $. # means you have temporary root in your phone. If you do not have #, then start over.
19. Type into the command prompt that has #: ./data/local/flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd-eng.img
20. Type into the command prompt that has #: sync
21. Type into the command prompt that has #: reboot bootloader
22. Your phone will be rebooting now. Eventually your phone will be at the bootloader menu. On your phone use volume up/down to highlight bootloader and press the power button once. It will start loading the PC36img.zip file.
23.After it loads, it will ask if you want to flash. Press Volume UP to say yes. It will now flash, which can take some time. You may see some red fail messages. This is normal.
24.When it is done flashing it will ask you if you want to reboot. Press Volume Down to say now to reboot.
25. Use volume up/down to highlight recovery. Press the power button once. This will try to boot into recovery mode but fail and load a screen with a red triangle. This is normal because you have not installed recovery yet.
26. Go back to your computer screen and your command prompt. You should not have a #
27. Type into the command prompt: adb push recovery /
28. Type into the command prompt: adb shell busybox --install /sbin
29. Type into the command prompt: adb shell nohup /sbin/recovery &
30. After a pause you should see a new screen on your phone. It should be green text with your recovery options.
31. Highlight backup/restore. Press the power button. Highlight backup nand and press the power button. Press the power button again to confirm the action. Your phone is now doing a nandroid backup. This will backup your wimax keys amongst other things.
32. It will take a little time to do the backup. After it is done press the power button once to return to the recovery menu.
33. Highlight enable USB-MS and press the power button.
34. On your computer, you should see a new drive in my computer or a pop up asking you for an action. Click on Explore, or open the drive in my computer, to access your phone like you would a thumb drive.
35. Rename the file named PC36IMG.zip to PC36IMG-ENG.zip and then rename PC36IMG-MR.zip to PC36IMG.zip
36. On your phone, press the power button to disable USB-MS mode. You should be back at the recovery menu.
37. Highlight the option to flash image from zip. Press the power button.
38. Highlight unrevoked-forever.zip and press the power button. Press the power button again to confirm if told to do so.
39. When it completes flashing the image, select reboot from the menu.
40. When it reboots a few things could happen. If you think your phone is frozen, you are okay because that is a normal occurrence on this step.
----->Your phone gets "stuck" on a white screen with the word HTC on it for more than a minute. You need to take the back case off your phone and pull your battery out. Put the battery back in and put the back case on again. Hold down Volume Down and press(and release) the power button while you continue to hold down the volume down button. Your phone should go into the boot loader like it did at the start of the guide.
----->You phone started up and fully booted. You need to completely power off.Hold down Volume Down and press(and release) the power button while you continue to hold down the volume down button. Your phone should go into the boot loader like it did at the start of the guide.
----->The phone returns to the boot loader.
41. No matter which of the 3 scenarios occurred to you in the last step, you are now in the boot loader. Obviously the 3rd scenario is the best, but all are OKAY.
42. The phone should find PC36img.zip. It then loads this file and asks if you want to flash. Use volume up for yes. When it asks to reboot press volume up for yes.
43. When it is done booting, return to your computer screen and type adb shell mv /sdcard/PC36IMG.zip /sdcard/PC36IMG-MR.zip into the command prompt.
44. Type into the command prompt: adb reboot recovery
45. Highlight backup/restore in recovery and then press power. Highlight backup nand and press power. Press power again to confirm. Wait for the backup to complete.
46. Press power to return to recovery menu. Highlight reboot phone and press power.
47. Your phone is now rooted, S-OFF, and booted into stock 3.30.651.2.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
After Root:
1. Run through setup and get to the actual phone screens.
2. Try to turn on 4G/wifi/etc and see if it all works. It may not and this does not mean disaster.
For me, I had to flash Stock RUU root 3.30.651.3 to get 4G to work. Here is what I did next:
1. Download stock RUU root 3.30.651.3(I opted for Odexed version) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=836728
2. Reboot phone into recovery by completely powering off. Hold down volume down and press power. When you get into the boot loader it will try to find PC36img.zip and fail (we renamed that file remember?) and that is normal. Use volume up/down to highlight recovery and press the power button.
3. In recovery highlight USB-MS and press power to enable.
4. Your phone should be mounted as a drive in your computer again like before. Copy the whole zip file that you downloaded for RUU 3.30.651.3 rooted odexed to your phone. Wait for it to finish the transfer.
5. On your phone press power to turn off USB-MS mode.
6. On the recovery menu highlight wipe and press power.
7. Highlight the first wipe option which is something like wipe cache/factory reset. Press power. Press power again to confirm if needed.
8. Hightlight the second wipe option which is wipe cache. Press power and then press power again if needed.
9. Highlight the third wipe option which is wipe dalvik-cache. Press power and then press power again if needed.
10. Return recovery menu.
11. Hightlight flash image from zip and press power.
12. Highlight the file that you just transfered over that is for RUU 3.30.651.3 and press power. Press power again to confirm if asked. It will start flashing the image to your phone, but you will not see progress bars. It will take a few minutes.
13. When it is complete select the option to reboot the phone.
14. The phone should fully boot up into the stock rooted 3.30.651.3 rom.
15. Now try to turn 4G/wifi/etc on and make sure it works. It did for me.
16. Assuming that everything is working fine, fully power off, boot into recovery, and do another backup. This newest backup is your holy grail backup. It is stock rooted S-OFF and 4G working backup.
Note: these last 15 steps can be used to flash any custom rom too. Just make sure that you get your "holy grail" backup first before you experiment.
GOOD LUCK!
Thank you very much. I had been looking at the three different methods, I just wasn't sure which one to go with. I'm downloading the files now, but won't be able to do the thing until i get home. I had a Hero for the longest, and rooting that was pretty simple, but when I got the EVO and looked at the forum; I knew it wouldn't be quite as easy. I just wanted to be certain before I bricked my phone trying to fly blind. I'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks again, I really appreciate it.
You are welcome! I am sure you know this, but make sure you read through the thread first so you can see other hangups other people are having before you start the rooting process. If you have rooted a phone before, I am sure you can root the evo. Good luck!
Worked like a charm. 30 minutes, and I'm rooted. That went easier than I expected. Thanks again!
you are welcome...good luck with choosing a rom kernel combination. I dont flash a new rom or kernel very often (once a month) but right now i have myn 2.2 for a rom and baked battery #5 for a kernel with some setcpu profiles and it works great! I can get a full day of 10 hours of heavy usage (connected to exchange all the time) and lots of texts, web browsing etc and still have 20% battery left
I rooted my evo yesterday. I have super user and titanium backup but it still shows s-on. How do i change this. I used unrevoked.

if you still got s-on then you might need to run unrevoked forever. just go to this site.http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever and run the correct update.zip like you would another rom or kernel

i dunno about him. (y must i assume its a dude n not a female on these boards... tsk tsk) but i have hboot 0.97.000
I feel as if i missed my window of rooting my fone when i should of.. now theres a 1000 and 1 threads on the newer versions for newer fones.. and yes i've 'been' reading most of them.. and its all starting to stick. **and whats this i hear about the newer evo screens being more brilliant? anyways, can i follow those same directions u posted? 30 mins doesnt sound bad. even tho 30 seconds with unrevoked is pretty enticing. thanks for your time and effort. might even give u an actuall "thanks" above ur name. just seen those recently and been wanting to give em a try.
the reason i asked what version your hboot is: if you have hboot 2.02 or 2.10 you cannot use unrevoked at this current time; you must use the above method. I just wanted to make sure you had the correct hboot to use unrevoked. I have had a friend who made this mistake, and it broke his 4g and he had to get a replacement.
as far as using th above method, unless you have hboot 2.02 or 2.10, I would advise agianst it.

Some people are having trouble using unrevoked-forever on hboot 2.10 saying that their radio is not supported. Some people have not had trouble and the root worked fine. So, make sure you root before updating to the latest build.

[Q] Droid incredible stuck at "HTC Incredible" screen.

okay, well i've done my share of research on these forums and others, and attempted recovery of this phone a few different ways, and nothing is working. i'll tell you everything i know and have tried, and unless i forget something, i'm at a loss for what else to try.
booting the phone regularly, it sticks on the HTC Incredible boot screen.
pressing power and volume down, i can get to hboot. hboot says:

i have flashed a PB31IMG with the stock gingerbread on it from hbbot, that goes through the upgrade procedure, and asks me to reboot when its done, but it still sticks at the white screen.
ive tried installing CWM's and the stock recovery from pvillecomp*com
phone reads zip, then returns to hboot menu with no action taken
card is formatted fat 32, yes.
Well you wont be able to flash CWM because of it being S-On. If you were stuck at the HTC screen prior to you trying all of this, it may be a hardware related issue.
U havto reroot (s-off) in order to flash a rom. Try rerooting.

Yup. I've seen a few Inc that randomly started rebooting and then it stays stuck at the HTC screen. They all turned out to have hardware issues and they are were AMOLED Inc as well. I hope this isn't the case with yours.

sounds like the partitions are mess up. try flashing hboot again to get them to set right. then RUU.exe to get the stock GB back on then try to boot. you will loose any data on the phone with RUU.exe but it might get you a working phone again.

the hboot reflash reads the PB31IMG.zip and returns to hboot screen without offer to reflash. the hboot is .92, as is the version i'm trying to flash. and again, sd card IS fat32.
i used the ruu sucessfully, got all excited to see the new HTC screen in black with the loading bar, but when the flash finished, rebooted the phone, it's still stuck at the white screen. major downer.
no other ideas? paperweight? parts?
Hmmm I am having the exact same issues you are describing and nothing has worked on my phone so far. My phone is currently s-off though. This all started to occur after I did a backup through Rom manager and then also a backup through MIUI rom. A few hours later while it was charging it randomly started the reboot cycle flashing the htc incredible screen. I'll let you know if I am able to fix mine but at the moment it seems were both SOL.
Did you ever find a solution to this problem?
This is a guide I posted in androidforums about a month ago after i went though a bunch of crap to root my phone, hopefully it can be helpful
So, This is the second time I’ve tried to make this post and I feel like I should have known better than to make a giant post like this and then hit submit before copying it to word or something but anyway…..
I thought that I have been through so much to finally get this rooted and have my ROM installed that I thought I am certainly not the only person to have had this problem and I would organize a full instruction guide to Downgrade, root and flash when you have troubles with unrevoked for people who have had similar troubles.
NOTE: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU CAUSE TO YOUR DEVICE, THIS GUIDE IS DESIGNED TO HELP DROID INCREDIBLE USERS WHO ARE HAVING TROUBLE ROOTING THEIR PHONES AND I DO NOT KNOW THE EFFECTS A SIMILAR PROCEEDURE WOULD CAUSE TO OTHER PHONES.
First things first, I want to give credit where credit is due. Scotty85 of these forums wrote a large portion of what I am about to tell you and I am simply copying it and I will give you links to his original posts so he gets credit.
Step 1: Downgrade your phone
If your phone already has Android 2.2 on it then you can skip to Step 2
The HTC Incredible cannot be rooted unless it is running android 2.2 froyo, so the first thing you must do is downgrade your phone: I will copy the instructions to here so they are all in one place but here is a link to the original post by Scotty85
http://androidforums.com/incredible...ot-2-3-4-downgrade-get-s-off.html#post3308718
I will provide you with new links because a lot of the ones on Scotty85’s post are dead
First Download These Files:
Hboot Drivers for The droid incredible – from unrevoked
Mini-adb_inc.zip from mediafire
PB31IMG.zip from mediafire
Now, follow the following instructions:
Scotty85 said:
3)prepare to downgrade
-extract the mini-adb_inc .zip. place the extracted folder on the root of your c\ drive. it comtains mtd0,flash_image,and some adb tools.
-extract zergRush.zip. take the image inside,and either copy/paste or drag it into your mini-adb_inc folder
-place the PB31IMG of 2.2 on the root of your sd card. rename PB31IMG. now is a good time to verify that your SD card is formatted "FAT32" by right clicking on the drive that is your phones sd card,then click "properties". if you find your card is formated anything else,youll have to re-format it. start by backing up all files to your PC as reformatting WILL wipe it clean. using your PC,do a full format to FAT32. you can then transfer the files back. *this is important-as your phone will not find the downgrade PB31IMG unless your card is formatted to FAT 32,and the file is correctly named.
4)downgrade with adb. make sure your phone is charged to 100% before starting.
-on windows 7,click the start bubble and type "command" in the search box. this should open a small black command window. from this point forward,all code will be in bold so you know what lines to copy and paste(or type,if you really want to type them all in). additional comments will be blue,and should not be copy/pasted. please note that each line is one command. copy/paste it into the prompt in your command window,and push enter. one line at a time.
at the end of the post,is a copy of my session,to show what the outputs of the entered lines should look like. hopefully,its a little less scary when you know that youre getting the right responses to the things you enter.
-make sure phone is plugged in and usb debugging checked on in charge only mode
-at the promt in your command window:
cd c:\mini-adb_inc this should change your command promt to "mini-adb_inc",indicating youre using that directory.
adb devices this should output your phones serial number,indicating its recognized
md5sums mtd0.img it should output a few things.at the end you should see this number 34307be744275f1db1dd16af04c37839
md5sums flash_image again,it will output some things,then you should see this number: 0098a7dd6600b55fac34fc6645be5d7a
md5sums zergRush again,output stuff, then this number:4a32187446c284c2b975845f3ab9ffc4
*all those numbers must match exactly. if they do then you can procede.
adb push zergRush /data/local/
adb shell this will change your promt to a $
chmod 755 /data/local/zergRush
/data/local/zergRush
this will cause zergRush to start,and it shoudl say "found a gingerbread!" followed by a bunch of other funny stuff.
last thing it says will be: Killing ADB and restarting as root... enjoy!
you should then be returned to your "mini-adb_inc>" prompt
adb push flash_image /data/local/
adb push mtd0.img /sdcard/
adb shell your prompt should change to a #
cd /data/local
chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image
cd /data/local
./flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd0.img
you can now downgrade back to 2.2,so you can run "unrevoked forever" to regain s-off
exit to get out of your adb shell,and back to the "mini-adb_inc" prompt
adb reboot bootloader this will boot your phone to "fastboot" select "bootloader" with the power button.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now what you need to do is place PB31IMG.zip onto the root of your sd card and run hboot by when turning on your phone holding down the power and volume-down buttons at the same time. It should automatically find the file and ask if you wish to update and you just need to select “yes”.
Step 2: Flash Clockwork Recovery to your phone
You now need to download a few more files and place them somewhere that will be easy to find.
Unrevoked 3.22 from Mediafire – NOTE: if this link ever becomes broken, you must use version 3.22, 3.32 will NOT work.
Clockwork 5.0.2.0 from PvilleComp.com – make sure you use clockwork 5.0.2.0 with md5: e8ac35ddc1c37000bb0852d1f380b5bb
Next, run unrevoked 3.22, as an administrator if you can. And click file>Custom Recovery… and select the .img file which is inside the Clockwork 5.0.2.0 .zip that you downloaded, you may need to extract the folder first.
Next you can plug in your phone and select charge only and then go to Settings>Applications>development> and enable debugging.
Unrevoked should now recognize your phone and bring up a warning dialogue. Click ok and Unrevoked will run and flash Clockwork 5.0.2.0 to your phone. Do not touch your phone until you see a terminal-like screen on your phone in all blue text on a black background.
At this point just click “reboot system now”- you can navigate clockwork using the up and down volume keys and use the power button for “enter” or you can use the scroll button at the bottom of your droid incredible to navigate and center-click for “enter”.
Step 3: Rooting your phone
You will now need to download a few more files and place them on the root of your sd-card
Superuser.zip – found on androidsu.com – simply select the version of superuser.zip that matches your OS, 2.2 Froyo.
Unrevoked forever – from unrevoked.com – look for the unrevokedforever.zip file download
Like I said, place these files on to the root of your SD card at this time using the mass storage feature of your phone when it is booted into android.
Now, boot your phone into clockwork recovery mode. Simply turn off your phone and hold power + volume-down and it will start the hboot and then select “recovery” using the volume keys to navigate and the power button for “enter”
When booted into clockwork navigate to the “install zip from sd card” option and then find the superuser.zip file that you put onto your sd card. Select yes to install and clockwork will install superuser and root your phone.
At this time your phone is rooted, and if this is all you wanted then congratulations, you’re done! Simply click on “reboot system now” and enjoy your superuser powers responsibly
However, if you want to someday in the future flash a ROM to your phone go ahead and use the same procedure you used to install superuser.zip to install unrevokedforever.zip, this is simple to switch the phone from s-on to s-off, which means that the security is off and it will allow you to install unsigned ROMs to the phone (one’s not signed by HTC)
You may now click “reboot system now” to reboot into android.
Step 4: Installing a ROM
Find a ROM from Cyanogenmod or your favorite developer such as and put it onto the root of your sd card.
At this time you have two options for installing a ROM to your phone: you can either manually go into clockworkmod recovery and wipe the cache, data, and system of your phone and then use the “install zip from sd card” and install the ROM
OR you can install ROM manager to your phone (can be found on Google Play, formally Android Market) and install from there. All you need to do is use the app to reflash Clockwork and then select “Install ROM from SD card” and it will do all of the work for you. You can choose to backup your old ROM or to wipe the cache, but after this runs and completes you will boot into your new ROM.
Note: if you format your sd card before this process and have only the ROM on the card it will run much faster.
You’re done! Congratulations! You may have a ROM that does not have google apps pre-installed but there are many guides online for installing the android market and google apps. For example, for cyanogenmod you can just flash a gapps.zip specific for your version using clockwork and it will push all of the apps for you.
Enjoy your now rooted and flashed phone, and as always, root responsibly.

You would need to downgrade to Froyo to be able to root your phone....

That is incorrect. Using unrevoked 2.3 you can root 2.3.4. And you do not need s-off to flash roms! I can flash roms left and right with no problem,and i can even flash kernels. S-off protects flashing radios.
As far as the stuck in hboot and splash screen,you may be stuck with the bootmode stuck to bootloader.

[HOWTO]Unlock, Root, and install CWR Galaxy Nexus with Ubuntu Linux or Linux Mint 12

warnning: any damage you do to your phone following these directions is your responsibility. Assume you warranty is void if your are rooted.
I used the information koush provided here and info birdman provided here and adopted it in Ubutnu Linux 11.10. I hit some bumps along the way using my Linux box so I decided to write this for those of us not using OS's made by the darkside This should also work with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS just fine.
All this should work with Linux Mint 12 also.
1- Set up Android SDK, adb, and fastboot in Ubuntu Linux using the links in my signature. I can't stress how useful and easy it is to set adb and fastboot in your "path" so you can easily use it from any prompt. The links explain it. Take your time with that and it will payoff for all your devices. Here is the guide I wrote http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19446284&postcount=62
STOP NOW! EVERYTHING INCLUDING YOUR PERSONAL FILES, PICTURES, AND VIDEOS WILL BE ERASED WHEN YOU UNLOCK/ROOT THIS DEVICE. It does not have a physical SD card. Very annoying. Use Dropbox or Google+ to backup everything.
2- on your phone, go to settings/Developer Options and check the box for USB Debugging
3-connect your phone, fire up a terminal, and type:
Code:
adb devices
You should get the serial number of your device appear. If not, unplug, reboot phone, re-attach the phone to your computer and try again. If you still do not get your device's serial number, go back to step 1 and make sure everything is setup correctly.
4- Now download Clockwork Recovery from here
http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-toro.img
(make sure it's the CDMA one (toro). The GSM one is called maguro and steps should be the same)
and su.zip from here
http://download.clockworkmod.com/test/su.zip
5-Turn the phone off, hold both Volume up and Volume Down and press the power button. You should come to a screen that has a big arrow and some writings at the bottom (fastboot). Last line should say Locked state.
6- Connect your phone to your computer, fire up a terminal and type:
Code:
fastboot devices
your phone and its serial number should appear just as it did using adb above. adb will not work here of course. If you don't see your device, go to step one. I guess you can download the fastboot for linux and cd to that directory and do it but I like to have it setup on my computer.
STOP NOW! EVERYTHING INCLUDING YOUR PERSONAL FILES, PICTURES, AND VIDEOS WILL BE ERASED WHEN YOU UNLOCK/ROOT THIS DEVICE. It does not have a physical SD card. Very annoying. Use Dropbox or Google+ to backup everything.
7- Now for the stuff that voids your warranty: Type
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
and enter. Look at your phone now, use the Volume up to choose YES and press the power button to accept. It should say that you are unlocked and fastboot is in good state.
9-use the volume up to change the value appearing in the arrow to recovery and press the power button to accept. You are taken to laying down android with a red triangle. This is the stock recovery. Now carefully press the volume up, volume down, and the power button to get to a menu. Choose wipe data and factory reset. 2 things: I had a hard time getting to the menu. Do it a few times and try pressing the power button JUST a fraction of a second earlier than the 2 volume buttons. Also wiping and resetting takes a few minutes, be patient.
10-you are now unlocked. Turn the phone off ( I pulled battery), go to fastboot screen by holding volume up, down and power button. Connect your phone to your computer and make sure it is recognized by typing:
Code:
fastboot devices
If it is, change directory to where you downloaded clockwork recovery. If you didn't change it, it should be the Download directory (remember it's case sensitive):
Code:
cd Downloads
11- Time to re-write your recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.5.0.4-toro.img
Please make sure you use common sense here when it comes to file names. If the file you downloaded has a different name or version, change it in the code above. I guess you can put the fastboot file in that location also to be used if you do not have it setup as in step 1. I'm not positive how and if that would work. Downloading and installing the wrong file is a mistake that may cause harm to your phone.
12- Use the vol up/down to point the big arrow toward recovery, push the power button to get to Cloclwork Recovery. Once you confirm you have CWR, reboot the phone normally and let Android OS create all the folders it needs. Once at start up screen, pull the battery to turn phone off, and then get to bootloader by holding vol up/down and power button in. Use the vol up/down to point the big arrow on sceen toward recovery. While in recovery, make sure your terminal prompt still shows the Downloads directory (or where the su and recovery files were downloaded to). Now type: (note the space between zip and /data)
Code:
adb push su.zip /data/media
this will put the su.zip file in the root of your virtual sd card.
You are still in recovery, reboot into recovery to refresh the file list by typing this
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Now go ahead and install su.zip through clockwork recovery's menus. Pretty self explanatory (choose zip from sd card). The su.zip should be now in the root of your virtual sd card.
That's all. You are now unlocked and rooted. Reboot. Make sure you install the paid versions of rom manager, titanium backup, and update superuser app.
13- Download Rom Manager and flash the recovery again (top choice). This will erase the install-recovery.sh file and keeps your CWR at each boot. You do not have to do step 14 if you do this. I will leave step 14 here just in case someone needs it.
14-When you are back in the fastboot screen. DO NOT reboot the phone here. There maybe a file that re-writes the recovery to stock if the phone is rebooted. Your phone may or may not have this file. of the two GN I have, one did and one did not at this step(may have been erased). The file is reovery.sh and is located in /system/etc/ . You need to either rename it or delete it.
While in fastboot and after you flashed CWR, use the Volume up and Down to change the arrow's value to recovery and press the power button. You should now see the familiar Clockwork recovery. In recovery, you can use adb (you can't in fastboot of course). You need to rename that file, use these steps in terminal: (If you see no file/folder found message, you know you do not have this file)
Code:
adb shell
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /system
Code:
mv /system/etc/install-recovery.sh /system/etc/install-recovery.bak
step 1 fires up adb, step 2 allows you to change permissions and read and write, and step 3 renames it. You can now unplug the phone.
Again, you can also get rid of this file by flashing the clcokwork recovery in Rom Manager or using the paid app root explorer to rename the file.
Once again referrence links:

thank you so much this is exactly what i was looking for. cant believe im the only one to comment on this. it is very detailed even some one new to Ubuntu could figure this out.
I've been using it too for a while but never posted so THANK YOU! Very easy to follow. Great work.
you're welcome. I find it ironic that a Linux based OS such as Android has so many HOWTOs for Windows but not enough for Linux. #powerofmonoply
I find I need to run fastboot commands with sudo or su into root before it will work. Same for you, or misconfig on my side?

I'm not sure. How did you setup your adb and fastboot? I did not have to sudo for fastboot commands. What OS are you running?
Hey loveubuntu, I have a question.
I'm at Step 12, and I'm in recovery and when I run adb push su.zip /data/media, it isn't finding any devices. When I run adb devices, the device isn't listed.
Any advice?

were you able to see the device in the previous steps 3, 6 and 10 and now you don't?
Things that come to mind is:
1- Do you have the usb debugging checked?
2- unplug and replug the device and see if it works.
3- don't forget the samsung recovery file install-recovery.sh. If the phone is rebooted you may have re-written your recovery and have to start over. Then reboot the phone and go to rom manager and reflash the recovery (first option). This will take care of the install-recovery.sh file.

3, 6, & 9...check.
I rebooted my phone by pulling the battery and I still can't get adb to see the device. The install-recovery.sh? I don't remember reading anything about that.
In step 12 it says to let the phone reboot into the Android OS, but it's now back at factory reset, as that's what we did earlier in the instructions. As soon as it boots into the Android OS, adb lists the device.
At that point, since I'm in the AOS, I downloaded Astro File Manager and tried to put su.zip in the /cache folder, I think that's the folder that the clockwork recovery mod folder sees, and I don't have permission. I was hoping I could cheat and just drag & drop instead of pushing it. BUT...I did try the command adb push su.zip /media/play and I get permission denied. I'm guessing I don't have permission, even as sudo, to move the file to /data/media.
Okay I finally got it!
I didn't wait long enough for the Android OS to boot up. I finally was able to move the .zip file, but I couldn't find where /data/media was. So I let the OS boot up, removed the battery, went back into recovery, moved the zip file, and it was finally listed.
Ordered a Galaxy Nexus too, will definitely be using this guide. Windows guides are confusing.

This step is confusing. While in recovery should be replaced by "Hit Power button to enter ClockworkMod Recovery"
Otherwise people may mis-interpret by "Stay in fastboot and position the big arrow on top to Recovery Mode"
In my case (GNex GSM stock JB 4.11):
adb push su.zip /data/media
or
adb push su.zip /sdcard
did copy su.zip successfully but could not be listed by ClockworkMod Recovery menu when selecting "choose zip from sd card". I had to do this:
Code:
adb push su.zip /sdcard/Alarms
And, within the ClockWorkMod Recevery menu, select "choose zip from sd card"
Land on another screen where I could navigate to Alarms folder and see the su.zip there.
Now go ahead and install su.zip through clockwork recovery's menus. Pretty self explanatory (choose zip from sd card). The su.zip should be now in the root of your virtual sd card.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry for being picky but personally, it is NOT self explanatory for me. I was expecting a menu item in CWM Recovery menu to say "Install su.zip". Actually you must navigate in the file system and select the su.zip yourself. Ok, may be that seems obvious now that I know what to do. But on the moment, I was worried I screwed up something because I needed to do some extra manipulations while you said that should be "self explanatory".
4- Now download Clockwork Recovery from here

You may want to up date the link, ClockWorkMod now has a Recovery program which is touch sensitive:

That's all. You are now unlocked and rooted. Reboot. Make sure you install the paid versions of rom manager, titanium backup, and update superuser app.

Therefore what is the need of doing #13 and 14?
Furthermore, Step 13 starts by
13- Download Rom Manager and flash the recovery again (top choice)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
What is that top choice? Do you mean restart from the top at step #1? If you need to reflash again CWN, would it be simpler to restart from Step 10 instead of going back to the top?
And BTW, what is the reason to reflash the CWM Recovery again just after you have successfully flashed it at Step 12? Could that be #13 and #14 are some steps of an older guide which no longer apply now but you forgot to remove?
Sorry for the silly question but I am rather lost. After all that hardwork, when I attempt to Update SuperUser, it failed on the line "Gaining root access ..." What is the reason and how to fix that? FOUND ANSWER: the su.zip given in the post is Superuser 3.07 which is outdated, It is probably buggy. Replaced it by SuperSU 0.94 and it works perfect: http://download.chainfire.eu/204/SuperSU/
Thanks
worked like a charm.. if you have problem using fastboot, just cd to the folder with fastboot and run it like this:
Code:
sudo ./fastboot "command"
it will require your password and then work normally, seems like it need super user permissions.
Also for new user: to avoid writing a command or a folder name manually just push the TAB button, it will autocomplete the word if it's unique in that folder

Wildfire S black screen recovery 1.26.401.3 hboot 1.09.0099

Hi
I bought my wfs in poland (sorry for my english and mistakes). I have problem because I updated my phone to 2.26.401.3 in phone jumped message about new soft and I update. Now I unlocked bootloader with htcdev and when I go into recovery (cwm installed by rom manager) I have black screen and under screen leds are light. I tried this but this isn't working now i downgraded phone to 2.13.401.3 and recovery (cwm) still not working. I tried another recovery but no one working. I want install new rom. What do? Can I install custom rom without recovery? or any solutions of this problem?
I had very similar problems, and could not find any solution, so I created custom recovery.img with appropriate kernel. Download attached recovery.img and using fastboot burn it:
$ fastboot flash recovery recovery,img
Phone needs to be in "fastboot usb" mode. Let me know if you have problems with it. Works for me.

[TUTORIAL] How to Install ClockworkMod Recovery on wildfire s
I Hope you have SDK tools for Android, Java runtime, and HTC Sync installed on your Windows PC. After unlocking the bootloader and rooted your device follow this:
(Note: You only need to install HTC Sync for the drivers that come with it. But the program sometimes causes conflicts, so during this procedure, make sure it is not running. Open Task Manager in Windows and kill it. If you don’t use HTC Sync, you may also open Control Panel and uninstall it without uninstalling the drivers.)
[OPTIONAL] Update Android software version to 2.3.5
If you have a Marvel/A510e, It is recommended updating to 2.3.5 before proceeding (if possible), though you can root a 2.3.3 device. If you decide to root 2.3.3 now and install 2.3.5 later, you’ll loose your root, cwm and have to do it again.
Make sure the phone is connected in Charge only mode. Enable USB debugging by going to Settings > Applications > Development > USB. Also Disable "Fast boot" by go to Settings>Power>uncheck "Fast boot".
1. Download the official 5.0.2.8 image at ClockworkMod’s index of recoveries here: http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager/
Make sure you choose the right one for your device whether Marvel or MarvelC. If you downloaded the zip version, extract the img file from the zip you just downloaded.
2. Boot the phone into HBOOT. After it scans for PG7610.zip, select 'FASTBOOT' and press the <Power> button then connect the USB cable. The word 'FASTBOOT' will change into 'FASTBOOT USB'. If not, then either your USB drivers for the Wildfire S or Android SDK Tools is not installed properly.
3. Open command prompt in Windows and navigate to the folder where you extracted the recovery image in step 1.
4. Type the following command: fastboot flash recovery [image name.img]. For example:
c:\android\>fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.8-marvel.img
Try the above method, if it fails then go down:
It's a full version, so just download the .zip put it in sdcard then replace battery, press <power> with Vol Down.

Iam russian... Use the phone flash tool intel v444. connect you device via usb. reboot rebooot rebooot.... when programm detect your device. check in "custom flash" option fastboot or adb. and flash ifwi file. wait min 15.... WHEN YOU DEVICE TURN ON BOOTLOADER CANCEL FLASH (PULL USB CABBLE!!!) volume - to recovery. open recovery menu and factory reset and cache clear. update with sideload and wipe data/ reboot!
@Andreko777 thank you, ill try it. Hope it works! But i think it doesnt work because, when i plug my usb cable to my computer and run Intel flashtool, it can not regconize my device. So i cant do anything else,........
@alan_greece i have found another method in a Chinese forum, but i dont have my device here to do. you can try this.
