Ok so when i try to use rom manager, it says i need flash clockworkmod recovery. So i click on it n it says confirm model n i do, then it says "an error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands." Wat am i doing wrong?? Thanks.
Are you rooted? That's usually a good sign that you aren't.
Sent from my EVO from the Apple Store.
yea i went thro all the steps to root n in titanium backup it says root access is OK. so im confused now.
Make sure you have the latest version of Super User Permissions (2.2.2): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828
When I got that error, it was because I hadn't told SUP to allow ROM Manager quick enough, and RM had timed out on the permission request.
ok so how do i get this onto my phone, i apologize, this is my first android phone.

Just go ahead and download the zip file su-2.2.2-ef-signed.zip from that thread I linked to. Plug your USB cable into your phone and computer, and either go to Notifications, tap on Chareg Only, and then change it to Disk Drive and press done, then open My Computer (or if on Mac/Linux, double-click the drive on your desktop) and copy the ZIP file directly to SD card, or use ADB to push the file by first turning on USB debugging if it isn't already (Settings>Applications>Development>USB debugging) then open Command Prompt (Terminal on Mac/Linux), go to wherever you have ADB located (usually the Tools folder of the Android SDK) and use this command:
Code:
WINDOWS: adb push *path to ZIP*\su-2.2.2-ef-signed.zip /sdcard/
MAC/LINUX: ./adb puh *path to ZIP*/su-2.2.2-ef-signed.zip /sdcard/
If you used the ADB method: Go ahead and just use the command "adb reboot recovery" (or "./adb reboot recovery" if on Mac/Linux) to reboot into your Recovery. If you used USB Mass Storage, power off your phone, then hold down the Volume Down button, then continue holding Volume Down while holding the Power button. You will then see the bootloader screen (white screen with three skateboarding Androids at the bottom) and can let go of the buttons as soon as you do. Press Volume-Down to highlight "RECOVERY", and then the Power button to select it. Next you'll see the words "HTC EVO 4G" on a white screen (like a normal boot-up) followed shortly after your Recovery image.
Next, use Volume Up/Down to move your selection up/down and use the Power button to select "Install ZIP from SD Card" (or something along those lines). You should have one option for "install update.zip" and one for "Choose ZIP from SD card" (again, or something similar). Choose the latter of the two, and then use Volume Up/Down to select su-2.2.2-ef-signed.zip, and Power to select. Wait a few moments until you're told that the installation was successful, and then select to reboot the phone.
You should then be able to boot into Android, and have the Super User Permissions app installed! Whenever you try to run something which needs root, you'll get a pop-up asking for permission. Go ahead and launch ROM Manager, and you'll get the pop-up, make sure "Remember" is checked, and then press allow. If ROM Manager still complains that it didn't get permissions, re-launch it, and it should work fine.

Correct. There's usually two options, one of them being to choose to look for a ZIP file, and the other is sdcard:update.zip. You want to have it look for the ZIP file, and select it off of your card's root directory.
Oh, and to change what directory your command prompt is in, use "cd *path*" which is both for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
yea i dont have that option, only have the one to update.
What Recovery are you using? Perhaps your first step should be to get a better recovery image.
If u don't mind telling me how to do that then ill try n get a better one. N i have no idea which one i have.

Alright, at the top or bottom of your recovery mode's screen, it will usually tell you what recovery you have (ClockworkMod, Amon Ra, etc.).
To flash a new one, connect your computer and phone, and open up command prompt. Change to wherever you have ADB, and get ready for some fun.
First up, download recovery-RA-evo-v1.7.0.1.img (Amon_Ra's Recovery). Boot your phone into Fastboot by either using "adb reboot bootloader" or turn off you're phone, and turn it back on by holding Volume Down and Power. You'll get the white screen with the skating Androids again. Go ahead and select FASTBOOT. Now, in your command prompt/terminal, use this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
It should acknowledge that fastboot can see your phone. If not, try rebooting again. Once it sees your phone, use this command to flash the recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery *path to file*\recovery-RA-evo-v1.7.0.1.img
Give it some time, and it should succeed. Then go on your phone, select bootloader, and then recovery. You should then boot into RA Recovery 1.7.0.1. Select "Flash zip from sdcard" and select the su-2.2.2-ef-signed.zip file. Give it a bit to do its thing, and then when it's all done, select "Reboot system now"

Ok so i downloaded the recovery image. Where i get confused is when u say open the the command prompt and change to where i have ADB. So i go to start, run, n then type command?? N i dont understand when u said how to change what directory the command prompt is in, idk wat "cd *path*" means.
Where do you have ADB or the Android SDK?
To open command prompt, go to Start>Run and type cmd then hit enter. Then use the command cd (path to Android SDK)\tools\, so for example, I have my Android SDK in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android SDK" so I would use cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Android SDK\tools\.

Dude it's not stupidity. This is the steepest part of the learning curve and there is actually not an easy answer. This drove me nuts when I first started to learn. But it's really fun once you figure it out.
First, follow the steps here: http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-hacks/how-to-install-android-sdk-and-adb-drivers-for-htc-evo-4g/
That will give you the SDK folder on your computer. I recommend that you extract the files directly onto the C: drive. That will give you the following path: C:\android-sdk-windows\tools (that will make more sense once you actually follow those steps.
Then, open a Command Prompt on your computer. If you use windows, it's under the Accessories folder on the Start menu. You obviously know this from your earlier post.
Then type the following:
Code:
cd C:\android-sdk-windows\tools
That should bring you to that folder. Everything you ever do that is "ADB" is done from this folder. That means that you actually need to put pertinent files into the "tools" folder there.
Once you are there type the following:
Code:
adb devices
If a long number shows up, then it sees your phone. There you go. If the above doesn't work, it might mean that you have to do another really annoying b.s. maneuver to your computer. Not worth mentioning if you don't have to do it. So just reply if this doesn't work and you can take it from there as far as troubleshooting.
Having said all that, the easiest way to install the new su zip file is to just put it on the your SD card, reboot into recovery, and choose install from SD card, and just choose it.
I would just like to thank u guys so much for ur help n def ur patience. I followed the steps u guys gave me n it worked flawlessly. Im so damn happy now lol, ive been trying to do this for sometime now. Now its time to get some ROMs on this bad boy.

You're more than welcome, just make sure to hang onto ADB and the Android SDK folders, and where they're are, as they'll be necessary for almost any ROM, upgrade, unlock, etc.!
So I perm rooted and it says S-Off in fastboot and I have superuser access I believe.
I got rom manager and downloaded clockwork through rm. I try to install rom from SD card, select the baconbits rom, it asks to backup or clear, I have tried both.
The phone boots to htc screen, then shows a black screen with a phone and a red symbol over it. I waited 20 minutes on that screen and nothing happened.
I was able to push vol up and power to get a console but I can't load anything there. It will reboot just fine after that but I have no changes and still cannot overclock.
Does this have something to do with the user keys or whatever?
Thanks in advance for reading this and any help that gets offered. I hate to have my first post on a forum being a "help me" post.

Go into Rom Manager and try to flash Clockwork recovery again. This has happened to a lot of people... Flash it a second time, and it should be good.

Did you download the "g2-recovery-test-keys.img" from the 3rd post quoted below?
Place that file in the C:/android/tools or whatever your cd line is, which should in the tools folder. Now go the 6th step. FYI the sixth step I tried from fastboot and recovery, none worked until I reinstalled the drivers my computer kept prompting me for and immedatly got the OKAY's from the 7th step.
Edit: The code "fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img" should be copied pasted onto your cmd.

Noob walkthrough:
1.Setup Android SDK and install drivers/udev rules as needed
2. S-Off your g2 http://goo.gl/Sc134
4. Copy vision-baconbits-0.3.zip to your sdcard, rename it update.zip (you can do this via adb using: adb push vision-baconbits-0.3.zip /sdcard/update.zip)
5. Reboot to fastboot mode (adb reboot bootloader)
6. Flash the recovery http://n0rp.chemlab.org/android/vision/g2-recovery-test-keys.img : fastboot flash recovery g2-recovery-test-keys.img (if you get 'waiting for device' your phone either isnt in fastboot mode, or you will need to fix your sdk drivers)
7. You should get two 'OKAY's once recovery flash is complete
8. Press the power button once; then the vol down button to highlight 'recovery'; then the power button again to select the 'recovery' option
9. The phone will reboot to recovery
10. Press volume up+power to show the recovery menu
11. Select the 'Apply:update.zip' option, using volume keys to navigate, and power button as [enter]
12. Once the zip applies, reboot
If you get signature verification errors on the zip, it means your fastboot flash of recovery failed to apply, redo it

Bingo, That worked. Glad it was that simple. I actually had to flash clockwork a third time to get it to go all the way.

After unlocking my bootloader, I decided to flash ViperX and my phone got stuck in the white screen stating "HTC quietly Brilliant". I tried pressing the power button for a few seconds and it would go back to the same screen. I can only boot into Hboot and Fastboot USB. I tried botting into CWM recovery and realized that it it's gone. I've also tried using ADB but no use as it can't detect my device. Any help would be appreciated as I dont want to send the phone to HTC at the moment.

Boot into fastboot and type 'fastboot erase cache'.
Then boot into recovery (should work this time).
If it still doesnt work, then flash CWM again.

.) Open the .zip file and copy 'boot.img' to your fastboot folder. Or the folder you use
.) Turn off your phone and enter the bootloader (Hold the Volume Down and Power Keys while off).
) Select 'Fastboot' by pushing the Power Key.
.) Plug your phone into your computer using a USB cable.
.)Now go to your computer and open a command window inside the fastboot folder (Hold SHIFT + Right Click on any white-space).
.) Type 'fastboot devices.'
) Type 'fastboot erase cache' and push enter. This can fix problems with bootloops or bootfailures.
.) Type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' and push enter. It should say 'OKAY' if successful.
.) On your phone, select 'HBOOT' using the Power Key and scroll down to 'Recovery' using the Volume Down Key. Push to Power Key again to select it.
Once in recovery you can navigate by tapping the screen or by using the Power and Volume Up/Down Keys.
.) Select 'wipe data/factory reset' and accept the warning screen.
) Now select 'advanced' and select 'wipe dalvik cache.'
) Select 'mounts and storage' and then 'mount USB storage.'
.) Copy the .zip file you downloaded (Don't unzip it!) onto the SD card of your phone.
.) Unmount USB Storage on your phone and navigate back to the Recovery Homescreen.

nope... I didn't know that I've to do that as I thought is just like a normal wipe and flash, like my old HTC Desire
Hey all. Tried to install new rom and now all I have got is the white HTC screen. Problem is I cant access recovery to fix it, tried pressing power and volume down button but all it does is reboots. Please help and i promise not to touch my phone again.
Did you flash the boot.img file with fastboot commands ?
Try this : connect the phone to the pc and open a commandprompt inside the fastboot folder then type
Fastboot reboot bootloader
or
Adb reboot bootloader
This should boot you to the bootloader and from there you can acces the recovery !
ah no, oops. I shouldnt be messing with my phone coz I aint got a clue what Im doing. How do I do what you just told me
How did you install the recovery then ?
But try this then
Download these files
http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU
And put them on the pc looking like this
C\fastboot\files i gave you
Then install the HTC drivers (google) if you didn't do that already
Open a dosprompt inside the fastboot folder and type
Fastboot reboot bootloader
or Adb reboot bootloader
If that doesn't work hold down the power button and the volume - button together as long as it takes to see the bootloader !
First off thanks for your help. Tried that but still nothing. I got a htc all in one toolkit but it aint reconnising my phone.
Thank you, thank you, thank you and a million times thank you. Im in recovery, yay. Thank you again.
Then you have to install the java sdk platform tools too ....

Read this too carefully...
But did you get in by holding the buttons or the commands, and what recovery do have at the moment
Please answer the questions carefully and right, so i can help you the right way
Will read that thread now. Got into recovery by holding the buttons down for what seemed like10 mins. Got clockworkmod recovery.
Oke wich one ? Is it 5.8.4.0 if yes leave the phone sitting in the recovery because it will charge the battery ! Leave it connected to the pc or wallcharger. You should see a red light of charging !
And try to get the fastboot stuff working its necessary to flash the kernel and maybe a different recovery if the one you are using is to old.
But how did you flash the recovery ?
I don't know which ROM you were flashing but here is what you can do:
Things I expect you have done already, according to your posts:
- Unlocked bootloader
- Installed recovery (Clockworkmod Recovery)
Things to do before you start:
- Install HTC drivers (and reboot the computer afterwards to make sure everything's working)
- setting up the fastboot files like Mr Hofs told. (so put adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll and fastboot.exe in C:\fastboot\)
- Get the ROM (.zip) you wanted to flash, because eventually you still want this ROM .
- Have the ROM (.zip) on your phone, so you can select it in the recovery for direct installing. I will tell you how you can put it on your phone anyways so it's not a big problem if you haven't done this yet.
Now let's get started:
- Open the .zip and extract the boot.img inside this file to C:\fastboot\.
- Start up your phone in bootloader (hold volume-down, press power button)
- Select "FASTBOOT" with the volume keys to go up and down, then press power to activate it.
- Plug in the USB cable into your computer and phone, this will make your phone say "FASTBOOT USB".
- Open up the directory C:\fastboot\. Hold shift and right-click in this folder (not on a file!). Select "Open command window here".
- Now type "fastboot flash boot boot.img". Now you should see "SUCCESS". Now type "fastboot erase cache".
- Go back to your phone, and select "HBOOT", after that select "RECOVERY".
- Once loaded in recovery, select the following things:
- "wipe data/factory reset";
- "advanced" -> "wipe dalvik cache";
- "mounts and storage" -> "format /system"
- Additional tip for placing ROM on your phone! Select "mounts and storage" -> "mount USB storage". Now you see that you can put files on your phone by your computer. So place the ROM you want to install somewhere you like to.
- Press "unmount" on your phone.
- Press "install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard" -> "directorytoyourrom/YOURROM.zip"
- Now reboot your phone, and see the magic happen!
Dude ... did you bother to read back the few posts ???
I did actually, and read carefully. But I guess not careful enough, please explain what I missed.
He said he could get into recovery. So my assumption is also that this is CWM 5.8.4.0, because the most recent toolkits got this versuib,
So that's where I started off from.
The only mistake I could have made is not thinking of his "i promise not to touch my phone again."
But he wanted to try, it 'failed' and got a little scared. This is no reason to reset everything to stock and never try again.
Plus the fact that he now knows how to get into recovery is already a big plus, so you won't actually have to start all over.
And
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't I clear enough to make it understandable for a 'noob'?
No its all about the amount of info ! Its one big post with to much info ! Let it go step by step as he stated he does not have a clue what he is doing, let him easy understand a small piece of text and get it working !
Part of your problem could be is that you have fastboot ticked you need to untick fastboot on your device and then you when you press volume down press power and hold both keys and you should boot right into boot loader with no problem

Hi all
I have a little trouble with my phone, because I did some stupid things on it...
I had android 2.3.5 with 3.12.405.1
So first I unlocked bootloader with htc-dev page, and now I know I shouldn't do that. Then after I found here a post what describes what should I do if I was noob and use the htc-dev. I followed the instructions so I can use the revolution hd zip and installed it.
After that reboot my phone and stucked on the htc boot logo. I can reach the 4text recovery menu and everything but I have no clue what should I do now. I tried the factory reset and everything what I found. Maybe I have to put back the original rom, but I don't know how to do it.

Hey
Thanks for the help, I'll try it afternoon
I did exactly the same: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31211732&postcount=396
The procedure to do that is -
1. Download the attached zip file, extract it to Desktop or wherever you want using 7-zip/WinZIP.
2. Open the ROM zip file you downloaded. Extract boot.img from this zip to the previously folder which you just extracted in the above step.
3. Turn your phone completely off (pull out battery). Then hold 'volume down' while pressing power and continue holding it till you see a white screen with 3 green skateboarding Androids. This is the bootloader.
4. FASTBOOT will be the first selected option in the list. Press 'Power' to select it. Make sure that now it shows FASTBOOT in red under the initial green text.
5. Connect your phone to computer. See that the red FASTBOOT changes to FASTBOOT USB.
4. Open the adb_fastboot folder, open 'Start here.bat'. It will open a command prompt window in that folder.
5. Type 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'. You only need to do this once. It will flash 4ext Touch Recovery, which is better than CWM (thanks to madmaxx82 for the awesome recovery).
6. Type 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'. You will need to do this everytime you flash a custom ROM, but before you do so be sure you've copied the boot.img from the ROM zip to the adb_fastboot folder.
7. You should see some stuff like 'Sending data... data sent successfully'. If there's any error at this step report it here.
8. Once it has done everything and displayed successful confirmations, disconnect phone.
