So I'm not fluent in the linux terminal. I'm basically illiterate, deaf and dumb. So here I am trying to root using toasts tutorial, How To Root The HTC EVO ~ Part-1 \0/
the forum won't let me post links yet., and apparently the software here thinks some part of the code I'm posting is a link.
Anyway I'm at this step,
- At this point it will boot into a rooted rom.
- YOU ARE NOW ROOT!!!
- rename the PC36IMG.zip on your sdcard:
- plug your phone into a usb port on your desktop and do:

I may be root but I had a problem and had to redo this step... my sdcard was not being recognized. After reflashing/ updating I was able to access it again.
Now this rename the zip file step... I'm thinking if I rename it the code I'm supposed to enter isn't going to work. What should I rename it to?
How should I enter this code? first off my sd card isn't called sdcard it's called an 8 digit number.
I tried this (can't post the code for some reason) without changing the name of the zip file. I'm thinking I don't have the locations right because I know the file is in there.
I need some direction to get to the next step.
Thanks
Mods please move this thread....
to wherever it will get the most or correct exposure. Sorry if I put it in the wrong place.
i have no idea what your doing...i rooted via the unREVOked method...i had to downgrade to 2.1, then actually root...can u send me a PM with what tutorial your following? and also the current info you have for your phone, like what its running (2.1 or 2.2) and stuff of that nature.... we shall see if i can help, not sure but its worth a shot
okay form what i read you have already flashed the .zip. Make sure you clear your data and cache as these will cause boot loops if not cleared. Also you can rename the .zip to anything you want, this just makes it so the bootloader does not try to install the .zip a second time.

I'm running 2.1. I never upgraded. The tutorial I'm following is in thread #690762 I'll try to pm the link but I don't think they'll let me. I thought unrevoked wasn't a full root. I want to unlock nand. I'm also using Ubuntu here, not windows.

Yes I flashed the .zip my phone called it "updating" when it was going on.

I just removed the .zip part. What is the point of the next step, which I couldn't get to work, if I rename the file?
Code:
adb shell mv /sdcard/PC36IMG.zip /sdcard/root-PC36IMG.zip
Well I guess I'm going to start over and wait for the latest unrevoked to come back out. Thanks to everyone that tried to help. "NO ROOT FOR YOU!"
You have a lot to learn....
First of all, don't rename the sdcard, rename pc36img.zip. Just rename it to anything you want so boat loader doesn't recognize it and try to update itself. Next, you aren't utilizing root. You do have a rooted boot loader, but you are still using a protected recovery and rom. Install a custom recovery and flash a new rom so you can be cool.

Yes, I know I have a lot to learn. I didn't rename the sdcard, that wasn't possible. I figured part of the problem with getting this to work was the path. My sdcard wasn't called sdcard it was called some 8 digit number. I eventually worked around pushing the file to the sd card by installing the phone as a drive and dragging the file to the sdcard.

After I rebooted and updated/ flashed the file, I renamed the file on the sdcard by removing the .zip. I did this via disk drive on my laptop because I wasn't getting anywhere with the command line.
Again this part didn't make any sense to me, not that most of it does, but what was the point of the next command in the directions if I renamed the file?

Right "I have a lot to learn" I thought following the directions in toasts tutorial step by step would have gotten me to that point. I didn't realize I was just supposed to skip stuff when I run into problems. That kinda seems like what your telling me to do. I thought all of the commands were important.
I was hoping you had some follow up insight dkdude.
if you still on 2.1, try this method (just make sure the files aren't corrupted)

If you mean that RootEvo4Gnew.zip file:

The PC36IMG.zip file that you are looking for is inside the RootEvo4GNew.zip file. Right now, it just needs time to upload.

You downloaded from 3 different computers, probably through the same connection, but I believe you tried to run them from the same computer that failed every time, just a guess.
Just tried 2 of the links:
http://d-h.st/XJX
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/RootEvo4GNew.zip
and I'm currently in the process of trying the 3rd.
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/H...otEvo4GNew.zip from your link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1771755
They work just fine. The problem appears to be on your end. All three downloads are OK.
And if that's not the case, here is the same file that I have been using since last year that others have downloaded. So if this one fails as well, then yes, there is definitely something wrong on your end.
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/38127313/P....15.00.0808_NV_2.15_release_220182_signed.zip
Also, I'm going to downgrade and S-OFF my old Evo with the same files just to verify that they are OK.

Stop trying to open the zip files and you'll be fine . The ones in my thread are fine, as was mentioned.
In the past with my thunderbolt and downloading the same files I have noticed if I can not open the zip file and see what is in it then it will not properly flash. But just for the sake of argument I will do it your way.

If you have to you could always download the froyo RUU and pull the rom.zip from it, rename to PC36IMG.zip and flash
To do this, run the RUU but do not click anything after it opens
With the RUU still open, open a "Run..." window (WindowsKey + R) and type in "%temp%" then enter to go to your temporary files folder
Sort the files by date modified and go into the most recent folders, find a zip called "rom.zip" and copy that to your desktop
Close the RUU, rename the "rom.zip" to "PC36IMG.zip" and you can then flash it through bootloader

Yep, the downloads do work. There is nothing wrong with any of the files. Phone went from 2.18, S-ON to 6.16, S-OFF without any issues from those same downloads.

I'm having the same problem. I just finished repairing my old EVO and looking to downgrade it to 2.15. All the links have bad files. Tried D/L from work, friends house, parents, and to my SGS3. Always get the same message..."cant open the folder... zipped folder is invalid." I've been to numerous sites about this and i'm always directed to the same files. This isn't a rare issue, it's a lot of people. There's something wrong with those files.

No, there isn't. The zip files are encrypted, so most zip programs will throw an error if you try to open them. They should not be unzipped. The files from my post have always and still work fine. Just follow the instructions and stop trying to open the zip!
NOTE: Some browsers will try to automatically open the zip file when download is complete. In that case, try a different browser.
No go, sir. Opening the zip or not, the fact is it doesn't work. I have a few of these files and none of them are recognized when boot loader is brought back up to flash the file. It scans the zip, can't find file, image or anything. Its the same thing no matter which one I use. I'll keep looking for a good procedure and a decent download.

There's nothing wrong with Captain's files or the pc36img.zip files given on this page. They work just fine as usual. I just downloaded one (again) and confirmed it.
Is your phone S-Off? Did you flash a mtd-eng.img file to your misc partition, so that it will downgrade?
If you answer no to both of these questions, then the problem is not necessarily the zip files, but is likely on your end. And if you answered no to both of those questions, then the zip files are not likely going to work for you.
And, if one of your answers is yes, then it could be a problem with your sdcard. Sometimes they are full, or not formated correctly, or have some other issue, which will also cause the files to fail. You cannot always assume that just because a file does not work the way you expect it to, that it is necessarily something wrong with that file.
I updated my radio but not quite happy with the result. I try the PD98IMG.zip method, but the bootloader tells me that the zip is corrupted and no flash process starts.
I am not quote sure what kind of s-off sI have, but the phone was rooted the old way, no htc unlock.
The first line reads
Ace PVT SHIP S-oFF RL
Is it safe to try the Windows fastboot method.
deckoff said:
Ok, I want to replace the radio II have, and I follow this instructions, but the flash process will not strat, fastboot says the img is invalid.
My question is - do I have to rename the zip I downloade, of the extracted img itself. I did it a few weeks ago but I cannot remmeber how I did it ??

if the zip file you download contains the .img file and and .txt file. then yes, rename it PD98IMG.zip and put that in the root of your sdcard. Make sure that md5sum checks....flashing radios is a delicate thing.
For further help use the guide in my signature...
checksum is OK, I tried, but no txt file ??
I saw it mentioned once, but cant find a link to it, what does it have to contain, encoding, etc?
The txt file was the problem, I had to add it. Here it is for anyone who might need it.

take the OTA.zip from somewhere, unzip it and the the firmware.zip.
You only need the android-info.txt from your current firmware.
Take out ALL .img files, download TWRP and rename it recovery.img zip it with android-info.txt into a 2PS6IMG.zip
Put this on your external SD card, shut down the phone. press volume down + Power.
Press volume up (IIRC, might also be down, its written on the screen) to flash the file.
done.

Hello as suggested by ''Sawdoctor" (scary name btw.) I post my original from XDA Assist right here.
Okay guys I know this title isn't the best. But I don't want you to delete me because it has been already made. Because I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THE HECK THE PROBLEM IS.
Alright Phone : HTC One M9 (1,5 years old)
After downloading an app from google play ''Spy Camera OS 3 (SC-OS3)'' , I guess someone from you guys developed it. No idea. I don't even know if it was this app that caused it. BUT - after I downloaded it and used for a while other apps started crashing ( for example : Facebook, Instagram). So I thought oh wow. I reset my phone and it will fix everything( dummy me) . Ye I did restart it and ended up in this funny screen ( maybe you would call it BOOTLOADER ? no idea)
It says tho :
***Software status : Modified***
*** LOCKED ***
*** S-ON ***
*** SECURITY WARNING***
/*<VOL UP> to previous item <VOL DOWN> to next item<POWER> to select item */
REBOOT
REBOOT TO BOOTLOADER
BOOT TO DOWNLOAD MODE
BOOT TO RECOVERY MODE
POWER DOWN
I have only tried those that are green colored and ended up back there where I started. Any ideas ? I am rookie. I have never done a root on my phones. No idea how to do it. So explain to me like to a kid. Thanks a lot.
Unfortunately just after 10 posts I can add pics. Hope you can help without seeing what I see.
Either a failed root attempt or a borked nand. The app didn't cause it.

Alright man, I am telling you I have never done root on my devices !! Because I know you can **** your phone up and I never wanted that.
I simply restarted phone. Turned on. This came up. Don't even know how to root.
I think (hopefully) the problem can be solved by re-flashing stock ROM. You just need to find correct RUU.zip file for your device. Rename this zip file as 0PJAIMG.zip and put zip file in your microSD card. Power off your phone. Put microSD card. Press and hold vol- and power button simultaneously (it will boot to download mode and try to install zip file in SD card). Let me know the result

Hello, great suggestion. I am going to try it. One more question to it. Do I place it in specific folder in SD card so the phones reads the .zip file first ??
Let's try this ! Hopefully it works.
Btw. is there a difference restoring it from RUU.zip file and RUU.exe file ??
EDIT: Well I just realized, I don't have any USB connector for SD cards nor available android phone to put the file via that (only iPhones at home right now) . I am going to try it tommorow and hopefull it works.

Well, place it on root folder. And better to have empty SD card. So there will be only that file
About second question, I think there is no difference. Have not found proper RUU.exe for mine, so have not experienced restoring from it

Last question what exactly am I looking for in .ZIP file ? When my release date was Dec 17 2015, 0:40:10, can I use another ? With the same OS ( 3.35.161.12) and RADIO(01.01_U11440792_96.00.51201G_F) info, which I think is more important. I don't know what exactly has to be the same in the RUU file and what can difffer and is not that important. Thanks in advance

In order to succeed, you should chose by following criteria:
- RUU software version equal or higher than what's on the phone (as it is S-On in your condition)
- MID should match
- CID should match
- HTC Syncmanager (for drivers if you are going to use exe file)

In order to succeed, you should chose by following criteria:
- RUU software version equal or higher than what's on the phone (as it is S-On in your condition)
- MID should match
- CID should match
- HTC Syncmanager (for drivers if you are going to use exe file)
- Some other miscellaneous things that are most of PC already have pre-installed (again for exe file)

The matching file I downloaded says :
0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_M60_SENSE70_MR_Vodafone_UK_3.35.161.12_Radio_01.01_U11440792_96.00.51201G_F_release_464298_signed.zip
Cyan colored I see matches. Only release date, UK( I have the phone from Germany Vodafone) don't match. M60 I don't really understand, what that stands for.
IT WORKED
Big thanks to user : oscar_ferreiro
Your suggestion worked. I am back in my phone. You're boss. Hopefully it won't stop working in following days.
Thanks a lot. Have a nice day. XDA forever.

Alright man, I am telling you I have never done root on my devices !! Because I know you can **** your phone up and I never wanted that.
I simply restarted phone. Turned on. This came up. Don't even know how to root.

Then it's a borked nand. Before you flash anything blindly I suggest you spend a day or two reading about possible errors you may encounter and how to resolve them.
Good luck!.

F*ck this...
Alright listen, here we are 4 days later ... again out of nowhere !! my phone started crashing every single app.. EVERY single app, no app would work for me... I knew that if I do turn off my phone the same screen pops up with that ''Reboot'' stuff.. so I did turn the phone off ( IT DID VIBRATE BEFORE THE SCREEN COMPLETELY WENT OFF, if that's a trigger to someone) and the ''Reboot' white screen popped up as expected. WHAT THE F*CK ANDROID. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
I don't know what kind of virus can that be or whatever. I know that if I use the file I used before to reload the Stock ROM it will somehow work, but as you can see only for couple days. I didn't do anything to cause it in terms of trying to root my phone. Trust me.
Anyone willing to help ?

Yes I will do the research. Thought you just threw nonsense words with that ''borked nand".
