when im on Hboot screen to intall root.zip file... when i navigate recovery..
my phone restarts and turn into blackscreen.....
Please someone help me ... :/
it means the recovery image has not been flashed properly .
i prefer you to follow below easy steps
Step 1: Flashing the Custom Recovery UI by XDA.cn
Again, make sure your device is S-OFF.
Again, make sure your memory card is formatted FAT32.
Place the PG76IMG.zip file into your phone SD card.
Disable Fast Boot from your phone settings (Settings > Power > Disable Fastboot)
Turn your phone off.
Hold down the "power" button and the "volume down" button for a few seconds till you see the HBOOT screen.
Don't press anything. The system will scan for some files and it will prompt you for an update. Move the cursor to OK (volume up) to start the flashing process.
After it finishes, press the "power" button to restart the system.
Let Android boot and delete the PG76IMG.zip file from your SD card via USB.
Congrats! Custom recovery has been installed. Process to step 2.
Step 2: Flashing the rooting script by XDA.cn
Copy the root.zip file into your phone SD card.
Turn your phone off.
Boot into recovery: Hold down the "power" button and the "volume down" button for a few seconds till you see the HBOOT screen. Let it do its thing and then select "RECOVERY".
At the recovery menu, use the volume buttons to select "install zip from sd card".
Then select "choose zip from sd card".
Then find the "root.zip" file on the list.
Select "YES".
Let the script do its thing till you see "Install from sd card completed".
Select "Go Back" on the menu till you find the "power off" option and select it.
Turn your phone back on and let Android boot
you can use the custom recovery PG76IMG.img or else clockworkmod recovery from
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager
cwm recovery have more options ,so i prefer you to use that .
you can find those FILES in the source which i have specified.

Trying to a manual update on a stock phone, hold power button and volume up keys get bootloader, reboot, reboot bootloader, power down, select bootloader now I have a menu of fastboot, recovery, clear storage, simlock, hboot usb select recovery and reboots superquick and goes back to the first menu bootloader reboot reboot bootloader power down. Thats it keeps the same cycle, nothing about apply update. What am I missing? This was a replacement phone that came with the OTA update already applied.

this post makes no sense. if youre trying to do a manual update you go to settings, system updates, and take it from there. if you're not rooted you will not have a recovery image on your phone and can only load stock roms.
this is from another forum:
USB Cable
- Mount phone on EVO (you should see USB icon in status bar at top of your screen on EVO. Pull down status bar and click the USB icon. Mount)
- Copy downloaded file onto SD card listed in My Computer. (Just drag it on there)
- Unmount SD card and unplug USB Cable
- Turn off EVO
- Hold down the VOLUME UP button and push the power button
- Use the VOLUME button to select RECOVERY mode and push the power button to select
- Once in Recovery mode Select “apply update.zip” or “install from .zip” (depending on your recovery image)
DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE
YOU DO NOT NEED ROOT
Is this incorrect? Just trying to install the froyo update file from HTC.

he left a step out. if you are not rooted you will not have a recovery menu. So once you select recovery you will get stuck on a screen. once you are stuck on that screen press volume up and power at the same time (it may take a couple of tries) then an option to apply zip will pop up and it will then install.
thanks p-slim... will give it another go. so far it has just been looping inbetween the menus. thanks again
Well I dont know what went wrong it just kept looping between the menus. I justed rooted it and went on.
after youre done rooting, you need to remove or rename the PC36IMG zip file. otherwise you cant get into recovery.
Hi Guys! really new to all this and don't really know what I'm doing, I rooted my HTC Desire quite easily with unrevoked3 (very painless), however I have realized a rooted phone is wasted on me and I'll prob do more damage than good if I leave it this way.
I have tried to unroot it with a few diff options I have found here however keep failing (it seems like the case with anyone who has a 0.93 bootloader) I have found the following method but i think its for an EVO, my question is would it work on a Desire with 0.93 bootloader?
STEP 1: DOWNLOAD
Download both the PC36IMG.zip and the S-On Tool to your PC Desktop. DO NOT EXTRACT
STEP 2: MICRO USB
Connect your device to your PC with the Micro USB cord.
STEP 3: DISK DRIVE
Chang your charging options to Disk Drive.
Menu > Setting > Connect to PC > Default Connection Type > Disk Drive > Done
STEP 4: S-ON TOOL TO SDCARD
Transfer unrevoked-forever-son.zip to the ROOT of your SDCard.
(Do not transfer the PC36IMG.zip yet)
STEP 5: TURN OFF DEVICE
Power down the device by holding the Power Button for 2 seconds. Allow it to shutdown completely. Wait about 10 seconds before next step.
STEP 6: RECOVERY MODE
Hold down VOL DOWN + POWER until device boots into a White Screen.
Move to RECOVERY by using the VOL DOWN toggle and select by using POWER button.
STEP 7: FLASH ZIP
Select unrevoked-foreverson.zip in the selection area and press POWER button to complete the FLASH.
STEP 8: IS S-ON, ON?
When the FLASH is complete, Reboot the device into the Bootloader screen by holding down VOL + POWER until it boots into the White Screen. Check to make sure it says S-ON on the TOP. If it does, select RECOVERY with the VOL DOWN toggle. (continue to step 9)
If it says S-OFF, repeat STEPS 5 - 7 until it says S-ON.
STEP 9: TURN OFF DEVICE
Power down the device by holding the Power Button for 2 seconds. Allow it to shutdown completely. Wait about 10 seconds before next step.
STEP 10: RECOVERY MODE
Hold down VOL DOWN + POWER until device boots into a White Screen.
Move to RECOVERY by using the VOL DOWN toggle and select by using POWER button.
STEP 11: TRANSFER PC36IMG.zip TO SDCARD
Connect the MICRO USB Cord. There is an option for this in both the Amon RA and Clockwork recovery.
Transfer the PC36IMG.zip to the ROOT of your SDCard.
STEP 12: UNHOOK USB FROM PC + USB OFF
SAFELY remove the USB from the PC and then turn OFF USB in Recovery.
STEP 9: TURN OFF DEVICE
Power down the device by holding the Power Button for 2 seconds. Allow it to shutdown completely. Wait about 10 seconds before next step.
STEP 10: RECOVERY MODE
Hold down VOL DOWN + POWER until device boots into a White Screen.
Move to RECOVERY by using the VOL DOWN toggle and select by using POWER button.
The Device will check for the PC36IMG.zip and then ask you YES/NO to apply the newly introduced update. Press VOL UP = YES or VOL DOWN = NO.
Once Completed, press VOL UP to reboot.
thanks for any help on this
Try using this method instead:
Download your original RUU from shipped-roms.com
You could try also try OTA_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2-2.10.405.2_R_P_release8gn61bgo3rswcw24.zip if you wanted to. It is a generic RUU and is not for a specific carrier/network.
If you download the RUU .zip and not the .exe, rename it to "PB99IMG.zip" (and not PB99IM.zip.zip, the .zip is the extension and is not part of the actual filename itself)
Mount your SD card and then place the PB99IMG.zip to the root of the SD card.
Unmount the SD card and turn off the phone.
Hold down the volume down key, and press the power button once, release the vol down key when in the Bootloader screen.
You will then be asked to apply the PB99IMG.zip.
As a result, this will erase all your phone data, just like performing a hard/factory reset.
Note: if your were originally branded, you will require the use of a Gold Card also to bypass the RUU CID check. To create one, see the Gold Card tool below in my sig with a card reader or another phone.
Note: If you download one of the RUU .exe files from shipped-roms, then the rom.zip file will need to be extracted from the RUU in Windows, renamed to PB99IMG.zip, and placed to the root of the SD card (same procedure as described above).
Thanks, I will try this in the morning once I have extracted the rom.zip and renamed etc,
I will let you know how i get on fingers crossed.....(really worried)
ok I couldn't wait till am,........I am happy to report your method work brilliantly......huge thanks mate.....!

Wrong section but will help anyway.
After you S-OFF'd with AlpharevX, it prompted you to install recovery, if you did then skip the first step, if you didn't then follow from no. 4
Reboot into fastboot and plug phone in with USB cable (turn off, hold back + power)
1. Download fastboot.exe, and put it C:
2. Download recovery, and put it in C: rename it to "recovery.img" (for simplicity & without the quotes)
3. open cmd (press windows key + R, type "cmd" and press ok). In cmd type:
cd c:\ [hit enter]
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img c:\recovery.img [hit enter]
fastboot poweroff [hit enter]
4. with the phone off, hold "volume down" and "power", this will boot you into HBOOT, wait for the phone to look for some files (which it won't find), use thevolume keys to navigate to "RECOVERY", select with power.
5. phone will reboot, show splash screen, go to "backup & restore" and select "backup", and wait for it to finish. Go to "advanced", select "wipe dalvic cache", then go back to the menu and select "wipe data/ factory reset". Now go to "install zip from sdcard", "choose zip from sdcard", and locate the ROM you want to install, and wait for it to finish, then reboot.

Download: GalaxyNexusRootMac.zip Here
Step 1: Download the link above

Step 4: Plug your phone via microUSB and enter into bootloader mode (Press volume up, volume down, and power button until you feel a vibration)
Step 5: Press volume up and power button to select "Yes" (It says may void warranty, don't worry because you can always lock the booloader if you want)
Step 6: Go back to Terminal and type:
Type for GSM:
./fastboot-mac flash recovery GSM_recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-maguro.img
Step 7: Enter into ClockworkMod Recovery Mode (First enter into Bootloader Mode then press volume up twice and power to select "Recovery")
Step 8: Select "Reboot System Now" using volume and power buttons.
Step 9. Once your phone has finished rebooting Go back to your computer and go to "Downloads > "GalaxyNexusRootMac" and transfer "CWM-SuperSU-v0.87.zip" into internal Sd card phone.
Step 10: Enter into "Bootloader Mode" (Power off phone, hold down volume up, volume down, and power button until you feel a vibration)

Step 13. Choose "Yes" > Go Back > Reboot System Now
Found these instructions at the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790399
My phone is now stuck in recovery mode.
I have tried doing some troubleshooting with my little knowledge:
Perform Wipe data/Factory reset (this will delete all apps and their settings and game progress) and choose Yes on next screen to confirm the action. Then perform Wipe Cache Partition and once again hit Yes to confirm.
Return to CWM recovery main menu and select Mounts and Storage > Format / data and click Yes on next screen to confirm.
From the main menu of CWM recovery, go to Advanced and choose Wipe Dalvik Cache. Then hit Yes on next scrand messed up the whole situation.
It currently shows:
ClockWorkMod Recovery v5.8.0.2
-reboot system now

-
-
-
Standard options
I'm using a Mac and have no idea what to do now. Please help.This is my first attempt at doing something like this. Apologies for any lame input.
Please Help

So you stuck on custom bootloader right at the cwm homer screen? Try to reflash this new cwm and let me know how it goes. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757146
I too have the same problem. Every time I turn my phone on it gets stuck on the Google logo for a bit then directs me to ClockworkMod Recovery and selecting "reboot system now" does not help either because I keep coming back to it. I can't even flash another image because it is on ClockworkMod Recovery and my running the fastboot command returns an error "device not found".

twrp is a recovery that makes you able to flash supersu to root
I know this is gibberish to you so this is what you need to do:
1- download twrp from here https://dl.twrp.me/a5/twrp-3.0.2-0-a5.img.html
2- download this zip file https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/supersu/download/zip/SuperSU-v2.79-201612051815.zip
3. Enable USB Debugging from Developer options & Disable Fast Boot from Power settings
4. Copy the first file you downloaded to the fastboot folder and rename the file “twrp-3.0.2-0-a5.img” as “recovery.img”
5. Now Connect your Phone to the pc through usb cable.
6. Press shift and right click together. In the popoup select “Open command window here”
7. In the command prompt type “adb devices” .
8. If it shows the list of device attached the type “adb reboot bootloader”
9. After the phone boots into bootloader, in the command window type “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”
10. Now in the phone ,using volume keys to navigate and power button to select, select reboot.
You now successfully installed twrp
Before following this, copy the downloaded super su zip to your external sd card of phone.
1. Turn off your phone & Then hold Volume Down & Power buttons at a time. Your phone should reboot into bootloader (HBOOT)
#Note: Use the Volume buttons for nevigation & the Power button for selection
2. Select Recovery. Your phone should reboot into Recovery mode (TWRP)
3. select “install zip from sdcard” & then Select “choose zip from sdcard”
4. Choose the #SuperSU.zip file you copied earlier on your device.
5. When it’s flashed, just go back and select “reboot system now” and your device should reboot.
its going to take sometime in the first boot
aaand you'r done.
