[Q] Help.. root question - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have the Evo, I have had it rooted for a while now, and somehow I have updated my software to the 2.3.3, but my hboot is still 2.10.0001. i am rooted, but cannot get S-off and update the rest of the hardware. everytime I go to root i have an issue with my hardware being to updated or my hboot being to out of date... could someone help me out and give the a good direction on where to look for this info on how to fix this... anything would help... Thanks

You should try to bring everything up to date first, and then reroot.
You can download the latest update (PC36IMG) from:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/PC36IMG.zip
Place it on the root of your SD card, then run and accept the update through your bootloader (power off, then volume down + power buttons at the same time).
If that works out, then you can find instructions on the latest root method (Revolutionary) at:

What root method were you trying? I agree I would probably run a 3.70 ruu or zip file and get it back to stock and then root with unrevoked

I have attached the stock recovery that needs to be flashed from the HBOOT.
It is my understanding however, that you need to downgrade to the .77 HBOOT, 1.xx radio AND 2.1 system for the update to notify you, give you the option to download, and install successfully. However, I am a few drinks into my night.
If you choose to follow that path. I suggest you read this
awesome stuff really appreciate it man gonna give it a try now, fellow floridian lol

If you get hung up anywhere, pm me and I'll give you a number to call me at in the morning/afternoon and I'll walk you through it.
your my hero bud, my freaking hero stock recovery got s-off i think thats all i need to recieve the ota and do it yea?
thnx
See, from this point, I'm not sure if you need the .77 HBOOT 1.xx Radio and 2.1build-1 on your phone (I'm really questioning it, as I beleive I read in a few places that you do, but I'm not sure at this point in the evening). I don't think the Skyraider rom will get a notification when the update is available. I'd say if you don't get a notification for the update when everyone else in the free world is, then you may have to.
As long as you have S-OFF, it doesn't matter either way, you have complete control for the rest of your phone's life. Whatever you do, don't turn it back on lol.
hmmm well if it doesnt show up guess my next set of questions is how to get back to stock everything

I too am awaiting the OTA update and was concerned. My phone is running 2.1 update 1 and is rooted. Will this prevent me from receiving the OTA update? If so what steps do I need to take to make sure I get the update then? Also should I put on unrevoked forever? If I do so will I need to do anything other than that to still receive the OTA update and keep root access?

Other than the root, did you modify anything else to your phone?
If not, your still with the .77 HBOOT, 1.xx baseband, and 2.1update-1 system?
Add unrevoked forever to remove s-off, then flash the stock recovery back to your phone. Your goal here is to have S-Off
in order to get the OTA (from my understanding) you need the stock recovery, do a little search I have all the faith in the world that you will find what you are looking for. you want to run unrevoked forever BEFORE you accept the OTA2.2, so this is your steps, root, run unrevoked forever getting S-OFF, find the file for the stock recovery, PB..IMG file, flash that in hboot, this will set u back to stock 2.1 update1, stock radio, stock recovery, but still have S-OFF to regain root, after the OTA comes.
So if I have stock everything, and have hboot .79 will I still get the OTA I don't see why not...

Currently the only thing I have done was rooted and removed CityID and but have not changed the radio or anything else. I have installed Unrevoked forever now. So do I still need to flash stock recovery even though I haven't changed the boot files or radio files at all?
Yes from what I've read you HAVE to have the stock recovery. what is your HBOOT once u get stock recovery?

Any input would be helpful as to whether I will get OTA or do I need to do something.
once in hboot, go to recovery, if you have clockwork you wont get it i dont think, if you get a red triangle you have stock recovery and you are good to go.

Yes, install unrevoked forever. The fact that you are rooted will not affect the ability of your upgrade, it is the lack of the stock recovery that will halt you.
Unrevoked forever will allow you to flash ANY zip file you want to the phone (namely a zip that has su and Superuser.apk) and will allow you to regain root in the event that it is ever lost due to an OTA or user error.
S-OFF is a beautiful thing.
I would love to take my phone to Verizon right now with a manufactured problem, let him see the Superuser, official 2.2 system and then stock recovery. Could be priceless!

Stuck on the rooting process with a 2.1 OS

Okay, I'm attempting to gain root access, basically I followed
# Arrow# [GUIDE] How to root Android 2.2 on the EVO 4G
I flashed my phone back to the 2.1 froyo version, but now I am stuck, when I reboot my phone with unrevoked it automatically selects the first option HBOOT with no input from me.
I THINK this may have to do with the fact that I can't get the HBOOT driver's installed. I can't find where the driver's should be installed when rebooted. So now I'm stuck on FROYO 2.1, with no root access. I know that getting to 2.1 is the hardest part of root, but I need to know how to get the phone rooted. Please if anyone can post info, or has had a similar problem please post here if you can help me.
Did your phone originally have 3.30 on it? If so, you need to flash the leaked 3.30 rom back, then follow the instructions about how to turn S-OFF with hboot 2.02.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828437
Where can I find instructions on flashing 3.3 I'm not even sure how I flashed 2.1
bump, if no one can help me get my phone rooted, can you at least let me know how to get it back to normal, so I have the built-in flashlight app etc.
i never thought i would need help with rooting, but i have the same problem. i have boot .97. which should make it easy. i am stock 2.1 and i am trying to flash a pc36img.zip but it simply wont load. it goes all the way to checking, and dumps me back at the hboot. no idea what i am doing wrong. i will try some troubleshooting now. ?!?!
edit i now have .79. trying to flash rooted pc... holding 3.29 now. wish me luck
same problem. goes from checking straight back to hboot. no idea at all.

[Q] Incredible Froyo Issue - updated from rooted device

I have an HTC Incredible that i ran the first unrevoked2 update to get root on my device, then unrevoked3 to get s-off. I then was pushed the 2.2 OTA update, which when done through the phone fail. So, like an idiot of course, I ran the update.zip from clockworkmod and now my device is acting all strange (practically bricked).
After the update, the 'droid' eye loads, then goes to a white HTC page where a small dialogue box goes from 0 to 95% then reboots, repeatedly, until I interrupt this via a battery pull. I then get into my phone, but the camera, sdcard, wifi, etc are not recognized. Eventually I get a force close prompt for 'system' which I can wait or force close, either choice, my device will reboot at max 5 minutes.
I have the following showing at HBOOT
Incredible XC Ship S-ON (i ran the s-on update now)
HBOOT-0.77.0000
...
RADIO-2.15.00.07.28
I'd like to get my phone either running Froyo, or back to the stock ROM, and am in need of help. I've ran several PB31IMG.zip files located through numerous guides and dozens of searches to try and get back to stock, but I either get 'update failed' because of some kind of version check, or the update doesn't work (maybe now because I'm s-on?).
I'm in sad need of help, I found another thread where someone else was in my similar situation on another forum but its old, no one is responding, and the update worked for them and not myself. I'd really appreciate it if someone would walk me through un-screwing my device if possible. Much appreciated.
alright well if i was you i would do this.
turn security back off (s-off)
grab the PB31IMG.zip for 2.2 froyo/ or if you want the ota again grab the 2.1
then it should work fine. but i also see the your hboot is not up to date for froyo so maybe find the PB31IMG.zip for 0.92 hboot. i dont have any idea about where it is located but i have the file for 2.2. but alas, i dont have a place to upload it soo yeeaaah. anyway that is what my first choice would be. choose to follow or not.
p.s. i know i say but alot haha
BTW yes, PB31IMG's wont work because you are s-on. and the ota probably did not work because you had clockworkmod recovery instead of stock recovery. thats all i got for ya. hope my terrible explanations help
Well, this might be more promising.
I did notice that my HBOOT was quite out of date, so amongst all of the files I've downloaded, I'm pretty sure the one that might have done it for me was the RUU update file. I of course re-ran the s-off update from unrevoked-forever, then started hacking away at the RUU update. I downloaded the RUU update from Google, ran it, copied the rom.zip file from the temporary files location, renamed it to PB31IMG.zip, copied it to the root, and then poof, noticed the HBOOT was updated (looks like this could have been the root problem).
Needless to say, i'm back to setting up my device (raw), hope that I can still get to root on my device; but at least I'm back to an operating phone!
OK
Looks like I'm at HBOOT-0.92.0000 with IncredibleC XC ship S-OFF still; RADIO-2.15.00.07.28.
Doesn't look like I have a recovery mode (clockworkmod).
I'm guessing if I'm going to root my device I'll need to re-install clockworkmod? Thanks for any future help.
so you still have the reboot thing, going on

No, my device is unbricked (so to speak). Since updating using the full RUU it successfully re-flashed everything. Only problem I have to fix now is rooting my device again.
Well I guess I have my work cut out for me searching how to get my s-off phone rooted again. Anyone got a suggestion?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
if your phone is s-off then search around for a custom recovery in the pb31img format. flash in bootloader, reboot into recovery and flash the rooted rom of your choice.
So my fix was:
1. Ensure phone is already rooted and S-OFF
2. download RUU_Incredible_C_Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.21.605.1_Radio_2.15.00.07.28.exe
3. Run the RUU file
4. Go to my temporary files location, sort by date, and look for the rom.zip file
5. copy that file off someplace else and rename it PB31IMG.zip, cancel RUU Update program
6. Copy PB31IMG.zip to the root of the SD Card
7. Boot my device holding volume down (HBOOT)
8. Allow the update to proceed (will reboot phone almost immediately to update HBOOT from 0.77 to 0.92)
9. Once update was completed, phone reboots final time after prompt
10. Setup phone again (RUU Update is a clean flash)
Still looking out for better instructions on how to re-root my device other than a manual one, but if I must then I must =) Was hoping that I could use unrevoked3, but the last push didn't work out.
you have to do it manually cause unrevoked doest work on newest ota
I can help you reroot if you need it. Im glad you have everythig else worked out though. Congratulations!

So that PB31IMG.zip (renamed) will re-install the most recent clockworkmod recovery? I saw some other post which also had a 'payload-update.zip' and a 'su-2.3.2.1-ef-signed.zip' file ... not sure if I'm missing something.
Also, according to their latest release (their = unrevoked), http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked3 - This supposedly works with all versions of supported phones. Of course, when I go to http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked2 it says that unrevoked3 doesn't work with stock Android 2.2 phones... which I'm guessing might be my condition since I had to flash the rom.zip file from RUU_Incredible_C_Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.21.605.1_Radio_2.15.00.07.28_2k4k_NV_1.50_PRL58006_release_143351_signed.exe that I got from google.
Some clarification would be appreciated.
Looks like I'm back to root. Ran the PB31IMG.zip that was about 2.86mb, then payload-update.zip and the Su zip (anyone know where the most recent one is? Says there is an update).
Now to test WiFi tether again, see if I still need that evo driver still.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
You don't need the payload and stuff. After s-off all you need is the clockworkmod PB31IMG.zip to get root back

The wifi tether has nothig to do with root. On some roms or just sometimes it wont work.

I Have a Question, Would it be Possible to Root the Phone With a Update.zip From Android Recovery, Where it Says (Install From Update.zip)? Either That or Turn S-Off, Or Install Su, Clockwork Recovery...... Something? If Someone Can Help Please Do!! Or If Someone Can Try to Sign a Update.zip For Me With S-Off in it!! (Unrevoked.4Ever) I'd Loveto Find a Easier way that can be Done WITHOUT CONNECTING TO A (USB) PORT PC!!
Technically no. Because rooting your device is getting rid of the stock recovery so you can install rims and whatnot. But you can root through hboot easily with s-off or with s-on use unrevoked.
sent from Ioslver
So I'm wondering if the payload-update.zip was damaging in some way.
In any event, now I'm constantly being nagged about another 17.7mb update from Verizon which of course, like the Android 2.2 update, won't apply via the usual system update message.
I don't know where I can find this file, but it says this:
---
Android Update
Downloaded and verified 17.7 MB
This software update includes the installation of V CAST Apps, Slacker, and many other improvements for your DRIOD Incredible by HTC. ... blah blah blah ...
---
I don't know if this is the infamous 'November' update or not. I know that I updated my rom from the RUU file downloaded from dl.google.com, so its possible that I don't have this patching. Some clarification on what this download is, where I can find it (online or my phone), and if it is possible to apply this update and how (so I don't keep getting annoyed with it).

Non-rooted evo running 3.3 (how to restore recovery?)

Phone won't load recovery -
My phone currently has 2.3.3 and will not root because the firmware is too "new" according to Unrevoked.
How do I backtrack to 2.2?
Also, the phone is not rooted (s-on) and recovery once again will not load properly; i get the red exclamation.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
There are a few threads addressing this issue already, and the short answer from what I have found in my research, because I too took the OTA update and have looked in to this myself, is that there is no option.
If you are S-ON and have the new Bootloader and newest OTA update, you just have to hang tight until the devs behind Unrevoked or other such methods figure out a workaround for the newest bootloader.

Hey man, I am sorry to inform you that there is currently no root method for the software you're on. You can't downgrade to 2.2, the RUU won't let you do it. The new bootloader that you're on is not downgradeable, and it is still currently locked. Hopefully a new exploit is figured out soon, but for now you just need to wait it out. Or trade your Evo with someone who still has froyo!
Thanks for the info guys.
Not sure is any of this could render your phone without functionality and If you are willing to give it a shot, try the first part of my post. After I unrooted the defective EVO to accept the OTA (since it was going back in a day anyway and didn't care if the root was lost) adn it was along with my .76 Hboot. I was able to get root back by using the HBOOT in stock recovery and loading the RUU posted with of course loading the usb drivers. Now, to be honest, I never used unrevoked to begin with on that EVO, so never checked son/soff before.
If for some glorious reason you are able to load the ruu and it comes up...try the root option also posted from the link to xHausx.
Here's hoping....but reality will probably set in and a short wait is needed for a real method.

Installing GB OTA from SkyRaider?

I got the notification this morning, and (since I'm S-Off) assumed I could just install the OTA and re-root (flash Clockwork, install SU). The OTA went through the download > verify > reboot dialogue, but froze up on the reboot step so I just rebooted it manually, expecting to have to re-run the updater. Oddly enough, I haven't gotten the update notice again, despite multiple shut downs/reboots.
TL;DR - Do I need to have the stock Froyo ROM installed for the OTA to succeed?
You do need to have the stock recovery, which is likely why it failed during the reboot. If you really want to receive the OTA, it's probably easiest to just flash the stock 2.2 RUU.
no, for two reasons.
1. assuming you are on a custom rom, your phone is rooted, and root often blocks the update.
2. in order to get gb on the rom, they need to new kernal...or a re-worked one, ginger sense and the two senseless roms already have it. yanked em from the ruu.

Thanks, that's exactly what I thought. I'm not sure why I'm so eager to install it, I just think it'd be nice to take it for a test drive before reverting to SkyRaider/Cyanogen/whatever my flashing-heart desires

So I need an non-rooted ROM (stock Froyo..) to install the update (I understand I don't need it to install a version of GB, I was referring to the stock GB update that just got pushed out). Thanks for also confirming my suspicions
Novice Rooted incredible Unrevoked3
I have been scouring forums and have only found bits and pieces of how I should handle the Gingerbread upgrade to my rooted Inc. I am rooted with Unrevoked3 NOT Forever. I really only use root for Wireless Tether and TIBackup. What should I do if I am prompted for the upgrade to my phone? What is the process and will my phone get pushed the update. Essentially, I would like the Gingerbread update, reamain rooted so I don't loose the Wireless Tether.
Should I apply the update then go back to Unrevoked? I here people say that I should install Unrevoked Forever then flash 2.2 apply the update then i guess I can use unrevoked 3 again? Is there a step by step how to guide to handle this. I am really confused and afraid off messing something up.
Thank you in advance.
If you were prompted for the update it would fail unless you have s-on and the stock recovery.
Just flash one of the OTA leak roms in the dev section if you want to try stock gingerbread. In the event you choose to return to complete non-root status and update to Verizon's gingerbread OTA, you will not be able to root again until (or if) Unrevoked finds another root exploit.

Not exactly true you dont have to be s-on, actually you dont want to ever go s-on for any reason unless you are under waranty and need to take it to verizon. Flashing an update to gb while s-on will make you loose root possibly forever.
You do need to be compleet stock to run an update including all bloatware still installed.
The update still may be on your phone in the /cache directory look for a zip file with vzw and a bunch of numbers in the name. Copy it to your sd card and rename it update.zip and reboot into hboot to install the update.
Or you can just flash this it is compleet stock gb 4.06.605.3 other than being rooted deodexed and busybox installed.

Touché, I stand corrected haha
can't get past 4.06.605.2
OK, I have been reading up all I can find about going from 2.2 to 2.3.4 on Incredible. I was able to download the 4.06.605.2 build and got it to install on my phone, but I can't seem to get any of the 4.06.605.3 to install. I am not sure if I did something wrong. I have also tried to get the OTA by going to system updates but nothing there. Any ideas that I can try?
Also I noticed something odd under Hardware Information it thinks my display is 4.3 inch WVGA resolution but everything seems to show up right on the screen, nothing gets cut off.
This is what my phone shows under Software Information

If your still rooted just flash the rom in the above post. If not reroot and install it. It is pure stock and the screen size info was fixed.
I was able to put 2.3.4, 4.06.605.2 on my Droid with S-ON and no root, at least I never rooted it myself and as far as I knew it was brand new when I purchased it from Verizon. So I am going to have to find out how to root then. Never quite understood how to do it, although when I was with ATT I was able to put custom roms on my Pure and Fuse. I am assuming there is a thread for rooting?

Well if you are stock as you say just download the below file, rename it update.zip and stick it on your sd card not in any folders. Then go to settings/manage applications and make sure fastboot is unchecked. Then power off your phone. Then hold the vol down button while pressing and holding power till a white screen pops up. It should automaticly find the update.zip and install the update.

Well if you are stock as you say just download the below file, rename it update.zip and stick it on your sd card not in any folders. Then go to settings/manage applications and make sure fastboot is unchecked. Then power off your phone. Then hold the vol down button while pressing and holding power till a white screen pops up. It should automaticly find the update.zip and install the update.

Do you have file extensions set to show on your pc? What i mean by that is when you downloaded the file did it already say .zip at the end of the file or was there no . anything.

I guess the link went down. here is a new one. With this file you will not have to rename it anything just delete the old one you put on your sd and replace it with this one and try again.
