I used the file from Wes in the first post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=713507
Much easier, just put the ESPRIMG.zip onto the root of the SD, reboot into hboot and follow the on-screen instructions.
the file from wes is not being hosted on the website can you upoload please i have to send my mytouch back also
All you have to do is flash the OTA CR posted(not the rooted ver) that will unroot you. plus give you the newer update....No need for that ESP image nonsense.

im developing a heart attack! lol. i understand this may be in the wrong section and i apoligize
boot into bootloader not recovery. It wills earch for pc36img then it will ask if you want to apply update. volume up means yes. apply and reboot. It may reboot while applying let it go until everything says "ok"

Anyone know where i can find this exact Boot animation? and do i install it same way as i would a custom rom.
1. Put in root
2. Boot to recovery
3. Flash it
and thats it? this will be first time i download just a boot animation. i normally use the one that come with the rom.
and i left a youtube comment but the creator hasn't posted a message in over a month

I'm not sure where to find it, but it depends on how its packaged, on how you install it. If its a flashable zip, then yes you do exactly as you said. If its just the bootanimation.zip, and isn't flashable, then you can use root explorer to put the file where it belongs. If you're on a sense rom, it goes in /system/customize/resource. If you're on aosp, it goes in /system/media. Just put it in the right folder, set permissions, and reboot.

Damn, you're right. The mp3 file (for the boot sound) will download it seems, but the actual boot animation links me to 4shared and says 'the file link is no longer valid', or something like that. Maybe look thru that thread and see if there are any mirror's posted in it? I got nothing to do, I'll take a gander for ya in a sec.
EDIT: I found it. Check out post #40 in that thread. I just downloaded it. The download works fine. If you want the sound, the link in the OP looks like it works, if not, I saw two other mirrors for the MP3 sound somewhere between post 10 and 40.
BTW, that download is not flashable. you'll need to put the file where it goes. It's easy, especially if you know a little adb, it'll take 20 seconds. If not, using root explorer or ES file explorer can get the job done.
EDIT2: attatched the animation for you.
i'll take a look as well, don't want you to be having all the fun
Its in there, page 4 or 5
damn it its not flashable.
gotta learn how to do it the other way now
Root explorer works great-sweet find!

Couple quick questions to help me help you get it installed.
1) What rom are you currently on
2) Do you have a root level file explorer such as Root Explorer, or ES File explorer?
3) Do you have adb set up to use on your computer?
4) If you're on a sense rom, I might be able to make a flashable zip for you, let me know.

Try flashing this. It should work. Make a nandroid backup first, just in case. Unless you already have a current one.
yeah it worked but no sound?

Ooops. I forgot to edit the sound file. Sorry. I can edit and re upload it, or all you'd need to do is open up the zip you downloaded. Click the folder that says system. then click customize. then click resource. then you'll see the bootanimation.zip and the mp3 file. rename the mp3 file to SPC_animation_final. Or it might be spc_animation_final. I forget if the spc is capitals or not. It's one or the other. Then reflash it.
Edit> and what do you mean that was the fastest bootloader? The fastest it's ever booted up you mean? confused.

Once you edited it, flash it again. And also, as I said, I don't remember if it's spc_animation_final or if it's SPC_animation_final. And I may have not been clear, but make sure that when you renamed it, you left the .mp3 extension on the file. It needs to be there.
yeah i know. flashing now. 1 min bud

is there a quick easy way to downgrade back to 2.2 ???
Umm no if he was rooted properly. Not boot by bout basis. You are OK. Your S-Off. Just would need to put latest Amon RA recovery named PC36IMG.ZIP in root of sdcard. Then let hboot flash it. Then flash rom like normal. Works that what I did

You can if you did a nandroid backup before flashing. Just restore.

i never have full root on my phone before the update...i used the temp root process...before i took the OTA update, i rebooted my phone so the temp root was gone and thats when i updated...not knowing that i wouldnt be able to temp root or permenantly root after taking the update...if i would have known...i wouldnt have updated
I would say give it a few days. I'm pretty sure someone will have EVO rooting again. Next time I would recommend unrevoked 3/forever.
WWW.unrevoked.com
It is so easy & fast. Root in 5min or less. Still able to unroot later if wanted/needed.

If your looking at unrooting also look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141 that don't even need computer. Just phone. Yes unrooting looks fairly simple. Have a friend using the method just posted. He going to let me know.

Worth a try, but I would definitely do a google search and have several RUUs on hand to try in case you get an error (i.e. attempting to load software older than original) with the first one.
I can't believe that people are still asking this question. Thread count like 50+ for the same damn question. Face it you screwed up now sit back and wait for someone to bail you out. Next time read then search then search then read

I was trying to install viper4android and it got out of hand. i decided to factory reset then restore a backup i had made earlier, when i try to do this it says it failed and then It asks me if i want to install supersu but i already have it installed so i put no. Also when i try to reboot it says Set Warranty Bit: kernel on the top right. What can i do? everytime i try to reboot it gets stuck there. Also on a possibly unrelated note the backup was compressed when i made it, do i need to decompress the file?

It's kinda really hard to permanently brick these phones. As long as you can get to download mode you can usually get back with odin.
