Can I flash Among Ra when I root with Revolutionary instead CWM? Bootloader? Or do I need to use flash alternate recovery in ROM manager after root?
Sent from my Classic Tomatoefied PC36100 using xda premium
Grab a PC36IMG of Amon Ra from the thread in development. Be sure that it's named PC36IMG.zip exactly - don't add the zip if you don't see it. Put it on the root of your SD card, boot into hboot, accept the update. Decline to reboot if you want to go ahead and go into recovery.
Or you can download the properly named PC36IMG of Amon Ra here.

When it says flash CWM during the root process should I say no and flash this in bootloader right after?

Yeah, no reason to flash CWM if you're just going to flash Amon Ra when you're done.

Ok, I think I got it. Sorry kinda new to this. If I don't flash a recovery and boot my phone I will still be able to boot into bootloader to flash Amon, yes?

Yes, because you don't flash the recovery in the recovery menu, you do it from the bootloader, to get a recovery.
Thank you both very much, and thanks Plainjane for the link.

Well I don't know where exactly, but you should be able to. Using root explorer or es file manager, ect, should let you see it for sure. i can't say exactly where, as I'm unpartitioned.
Yea, not sure where either. I'll post it as a separate question. Thanks very much for the help.

So guys I need to your opinion i root my beautiful evo whit unrevoked3 and after I rooted I got Rom manager from the app store and I download the clockworkmod 3.0.0.5 but I been having some problems for example when I tried to put a Rom or a karnel (not always) I got a mssg saying that the action was aborted but 2day I say in the Rom manager that I can flash ra recovery v2.2.2 so here is my question should I put the ra recovery v2.2.2 or I should leave the clockworkmod and thnx in advanced &*)
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
You can have either or. if you're on clockwork 3.0+ you can't flash files that aren't edify compatible, on amon_ra you don't really have to worry about it. And if you do so, use the latest version, which is attached.
Can u tell me how flash that plz

I'm in agreement with the roxxorz. Use amon RA v2.3 and familiarize yourself with its menus. I recommend that you not use ROM manager because it is far too easy to to flash a Rom, kernel, mod or recovery from within the recovery itself. Furthermore, you have more control over the process....

Place the on the root of your sdcard, then boot into the bootloader, wait, then apply the update, reboot, then reboot into recovery and you'll be on amon_ra 2.3. Then make a backup immediately, because you can't restore clockwork backups.

Put the file on the root of your SD CARD then shutdown your device. While holding the down volume button, press the power button. You will enter the bootloader menu. A few lines of text will scroll on the screen and then the bootloader will automatically detect the PC36IMG.ZIP file and prompt you to install it. Follow the prompts to install. The installation takes less than 10 seconds. Afterwards, reboot.

He's saying you should be comfortable flashing from recovery because you can't flash everything, like a kernel, from rom manager.

If you using ra, at the very bottom soon as you boot to recovery it will say amon ra and version number. That's how you can tell.

Use the flash_image xxxxxx.img
where xxxx is the name. Though its easier to flash it by PC36IMG file in the bootloader.

I use amon. Cwm doesn't wipe cache and dalvik properly and can cause intermittent stability issues with the Rom even days later after flashing..

You need Amon or clockworkmod recovery in the form of a PC36IMG.zip file that you can place on the SDcard and run through the bootloader. You will also need a superuser.zip file to flash from your recovery to gain root permissions. Both can probably be found with a google search.

You cannot use fastboot with Hboot 2.10 if that's what you're looking for.
