Now that we have permanent root, is there anyway we can get a clockwork mod working on out phone?
EDIT: ClockworkMod now available...MUST BE ON WIFI TO FIND
I read on twitter they're porting the recovery images for our phones and it should be ready soon

sounds awesome. thanks for the great news
This is awesome...
Hope they get it going soon. I got ahead of the game, and had their ROM manager installed and flashed the alternate recovery (all this after permanent root).
It does not work (works great on N1 - but not on this one yet).
Do not think anything else is messed up (as when selecting recovery at hboot - it shows stock options and then an error message further down...).
I thinks as soon as Clockworkmod gets the MT4G setup and it appears in the choice of devices, it should be easy to just flash their recovery over the one that I flashed earlier.

The "alternate recovery" in ClockWorkMod is Amon Ra Recovery (arguably better). I'm such he's working for a port for all the devices that got permrooted yesterday.
kmobs has it running now. Not sure when it will be released though.
Dang they already have roms for the g2! I wonder if we'll get any love for the mt4g

Not until some devs pickup the phone. It is good that Kmobs has one cuz he may get the ball rolling but most devs (at least the ones I follow) all picked up a G2. Be patient though, I thought the MTslide was dead a few months back but there are still ROMs being released over there.
I think well be in luck with support.this phone is a whole different beast from the mt3g and hopefully much more appealing to devs, as it is consumers. Also,I think KingKlick has one and he made some great roms for the N1

OMG please no! I would almost bet that if his account is unbanned that you won't see any roms from him until after someone else posts one.

To be fair, the ROM they have on the G2 forums is from the HTC Desire Z which is the exact same identical device as the G2.
Which makes me wonder if it'll be possible to load the Desire HD ROM without much porting work needing to be done given the similarities in internals.

What did he get banned for? I came from the Evo section, so all I ever saw was his kernels popping up.
They have ported over Rom Manager and their recovery to handle the GT already. I am hoping that they do so for the MT4G soon, as I do not have a working recovery right now.

Supposedly, he was taking ROMs from the other devs in the Nexus One forms, tweaking them just ever so slightly, then re-releasing them as his own creation with no credit due.
Emphasis on the supposedly.
If anyone gets their hands on a custom recovery before everyone else, I have a flashable rooted stock with bloatware removed uploading right now to Rapid Share. So, if you want to try it let me know. But be advised...IT IS UNTESTED!

That's what I heard but while reading some of their tweets it seemed like it was more due to lame drama between him and a certain team..
Either way,banned or not, he has his own website..

- Does this new version support both Froyo and Gingerbread like 3.0.0.6? That's important info...I can't believe Koush hasn't mentioned that.
- Can this version be downloaded as a file? I'd much rather flash it through fastboot.

Yep, that's fixed. We still don't know what ROMs it supports though, which obviously is key information. I can't believe this was released through ROM Manager without stating that.
Im going to try the new recovery in a little bit. Im still on 3.0.0.5 for the moment because im planning on switching back and forth between my gingerbread roms and my froyo builds.

3.0.0.5 can't do that. It's 3.0.0.6 that can handle both.
my personal guess is its just the 3.0.0.6 with the "charging while off" fix,
though i am not flashing until i find out whats up...

It looks like it does indeed work for both types of ROMs, sweet! Does anyone spot any differences between this and 3.0.0.6?
Charge while off, added power off option and removed format boot option. Anything else different?

No it's not the same, it's not rooted or tampered with, and the installation method is different. If you want to completely unroot your phone go flash the stock ruu

No you will not loose those things. The first post describes how to get into bootloader after flashing the update. Only your system partition (rom) and kernel will be the official ruu images.
I just noticed there may be a problem with the name of the .zip. There is a gap in the name so you will probably have to rename it and delete the gap in order for the recovery to be able to flash it.
I will work on fixing it later on but for now renaming it won't hurt the update at all
Thanks again, you have just created my new "fall back plan"...

Yeah this is good to unroot back to the latest factory update
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA Premium App
This is also good for devs to get a chance to try the stock ota if they want to mess around with it. That was the main reason for this update. Hopefully someone will help to get the bootloader unlocked for people who buy a new evo shift . But luckily this update doesn't already have the locked bootloader in it

I just flashed this, and with all my problems, it flashed, but when i reboot, i get to the sprint splash screen, and it just blinks there. So I am currently restoring back to my problematic rom. How can I get the blinking away? That's the only problem.
Are you wiping your system partition?

If you care about using the LG Camera that's been ported over from 2.2, and want to stick with an OTA "official" 2.3 GB ROM, then I'd do WeaponG2x 3.0rc1.

So I found this in the updater script for this CM9 port for the EVO 4G LTE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683384
"package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p21");"
looks like we can stop using fastboot to write kernels? Or is this something we already knew?
PS: fiddling with this CM9 port, I can get it to boot up to the CM9 bootanimation on my HOX, then it gets stuck. Just needed to change the partition it was writing /system to and change the asserts in the updater script...
I would love a CM9 port I cant stand these Sense ROMS.
would LOVE LOVE LOVE MIUI on the HOX!!! but CM9 would be good too
