need to root. quick assitance needed

.so yesterday i got my replacement inc 2 in the mail. i was on the inc for awhile and rooting it was simple..
i've seen a few different guides on the forum, most of which seem to be dated earlier on with methods that would have been substantial for the time being.. from what iv read there is alot of downgrading.. its 'do this, but if you are this radio, do this".. and more back tracking.. i dont mind doing it, but its just tuff at time to remember it all..
so im making my game plan.. i'd like too root tonight so ima post this and do some more reading. i've done the tacoroot and flashed the RUU, but the radio was a problem, bootloop. factory reset.. blah blah blah..im back to confused
i'll throw out what im on, and see if someone can just throw out the basic steps i need to do, i can get the nitty gritty details from searches..

Used this guide 5 or 6 times. It Works.
What I do is put my androidSDK folder at C:\SDK.
C:\>cd sdk - This is wrong!
C:\sdk>cd tools - So is this!
It goes cd c:\sdk\platform-tools and cd c:\sdk\tools
These are the only 2 folders required.
Read the guide and read again
Make sure you have your sdk with all the files in the right folders.
The process is pretty easy its just the attention to detail thats important.
Also make sure fastboot is disabled, and usb debugging is enabled

I need to see the outcome of the session in order to be certain about it, but 99% of the main version fails is due to bad downloads (antivirus eats zergrush wich is used to gain temproot)
Check that in the folder tools>bin there's a file named zergrush. If that is not there, then your download is flaw. Make sure you stop everything first and then re download the Kit. Make sure also that you are running the last version from attn1's site. :good:

I noticed that the device won't automatically boot so when I tried to manually boot through ADB reboot bootloader it boots up normally but I get the error: Update Fail! Main version is older I have no idea what I am doing wrong any tips ? I've tried using google but I haven't really found anything concrete to use the zergrush files weren't eaten as was suggested in other threads so I don't know what to do anymore. If any more information is needed I will update as requested thank you for your time.

buddy the downgrade didn't complete so u have 2 options now :
1 - take the ROM downloaded by the AAHK and place it on your SD and try flashing your DHD using hboot
2 - try finding the right RUU for your phone and flash it using your pc
now if u have completed either you'll be able to run the AAHK again and it'll work just fine
that's it
good luck

Log not mine
The log i used above is not my log,I cant get access to it now cos my buddy lives in another town.
I remember my copied succesfully.
While in Hboot it could'nt find 3 files.I go over today and bring back more details.

SOLVED erased sd card in phone
I erased sd card in phone and bingo it worked.

Hello,
Trying to root my first phone and downgrade it following the directions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1298990) very precisely...or so I thought. I keep getting an error at the second to last command when the rom actually gets flashed. Google has turned up several threads but those remedies don't seem to apply here. I'll give you my phone details as it stands right now.

Hello,
Trying to root my first phone and downgrade it following the directions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1298990) very precisely...or so I thought. I keep getting an error at the second to last command when the rom actually gets flashed. Google has turned up several threads but those remedies don't seem to apply here. I'll give you my phone details as it stands right now.
HTC Droid Incredible 2
***UNLOCKED***
VIVO_W XB SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.98.0000

Your link is broken. You should be using prototype's tacoroot method I believe. It's a sticky in the development section. Is that what you are using?

Just to clarify it is unlocked using the method from HTC. I can relock too if that is better.

Jehc is right. Go to this thread:

[Q] Stuck in hboot, already looked for answers.

Hello all
so i have recently tried to root my htc desire hd using the aahk and using a video from youtube, which was the xda made, how to root your htc desire hd using aahk.
so i had problems at first, i had a 1gb sd card and i had formatted it and it kept giving me error messages saying that there was no space left on the device so i then hunted for my 8gb sd card. once i got my 8gb it worked fine and it downgraded with no problem. i got through mostly all the steps included in the video and guide on the forums.
i basically got to the end where it asks me to reboot and it froze....for about an hour and a half untill i turned it off. im a lil bit of a newbie so hahaha
this morning i tried to turn it on again and it got stuck on the green htc logo boot screen. i took the sd card out and it successfully turned back on but only by pressing volume up down and power. i got into the hboot menu but now i dont know what to do.... do i find the stock ruu and run that or?

Does your hboot say S-OFF?

Have you tried reading the effen manual? Because the answer is in there. You did everything but follow the right instructions.
Try running the hack kit again from the white screen, that is what the manual says.

Reinstall the drivers. If you downloaded the hack kit with the antivirus on, switch off, download again. Read the manual again. It's a tricky book.

Then, in the phone you should be prompted to update, aren't you? If you are not getting the option to update in the phone, then try using a different sdcard, as yours seems to be corrupted.
If the Hack Kit is now trying to downgrade, then you were not downgraded the last time...you are still where you started.
