I'm rooted I think on 2.3.3 but I'm not??? - EVO 4G Android Development

I have no idea what happened I ran the new revolutionary tool on my wife's evo. The phone when I go to the bootloader screen it says revolutionary 2.15 hboot ect. S-off. I tried running terminal but it says access denied. When I ran the tool it went through but I forgot to flash the recovery. What do I do can someone point me in the right direction. Thanks

Is your superuser working? From what I understand using the terminal requires you to use su key (superuser)

Finish the steps provided with revolutionary, flash recovery, then either flash a custom rom or the Su files.

No I tried putting su in and it said access denied.

If it is S-Off then get AmonRa as a PC36IMG.zip and flash recovery through the bootloader. Check my signature for a link. Directions in the OP.
Then flash a rooted ROM, stock or whichever ROM you want. Or else I think that you can flash a Superuser.zip in recovery mode. I have never done so, because I like flashing ROMs and kernels

So download that and rename it then flash and then i can flash over any rom right

When you download the PC36IMG.zip from Amon_RA it will downlaod as PC36IMG.zip. So you don't have to rename it. Keep it on the root of your sd card and go into your bootloader and let it scan for the zip. When asked to update select yes and when it ask to reboot just select no. Go into your new recovery and flash a rom or you can flash the superuser from the recovery. That last part is up to you.

I think I got it.

Issue flashing ROM

I rooted my TB with Captainkrtek's method and everything works great. Superuser is running properly and not having any issues. But when I use cwm to try to flash a rom or kernel it tries to fastboot and fails. But it shows at the top "s-on" then says PG05img not located and fails. How could I have used his root method and still have s-on? Any hep would be great. Thanks!

[Q] Flashing CWM onto rooted SGS 4G

Hey. So I rooted my T-Mobile SGS 4G (stock 2.2 firmware) with SuperOneClick. That was super easy, I tested it out with a few utilities and I definitely have root.
So I went into rom manager and pushed the button to flash clockwork mod. It asked me for superuser status, said it was successful, but then it boots into the stock samsung recovery. I've tried this several times and I always have the same result. I'm sorry if there's an answer on this already but I'll be damned if I could figure out how to search for it without coming up with a bunch of unrelated problems.
Thanks!
Try going into clockwork and choosing boot to recovery then after that if it goes into stock recovery choose reinstall packages sometimes you have to choose reinstall twice. That's how I got mine into cwm first time

Oh no that's the problem, I can't get clockwork to boot. No matter how many times I install it using the installer inside rom manager, the stock recovery boots up.
ROM MANAGER DOES NOT WORK. USE KRYLONS CWM FINAL IN THE DEV SECTION.

Yea I no, but wen u boot into it you get the stock 3e recovery and there is an option to reinstall packages
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
You need to download krylons modified recovery.bin file and use a file explorer app to push the file to system/bin. You need to also have the file update.zip on the root of your SD card. Then you boot into stock recovery and choose reinstall packages. This will boot you into cwm.

Did you use fastboot boot recovery path to recovery instead of fastboot flash recovery path to recovery?

It was a downloaded zip file. I flashed it thru recovery have do.e it this was on other pho.es without problem.

It might be because we lack s off, I don't know, but can you try using fastboot and see if that works? There are guides about this in the dev section

did you get it--
Tried every suggestion I could find. It won't stick after reboot
Sent from my HTC VLE_U using xda premium
if you want to go thru exact steps for cwm we can, but you need adb/fastboot working on your pc, and knowing how to use them. I won't have time tonite for a tutorial on that, but plenty of info out there.
also on phone make sure under settings/power fastboot is unchecked. if you are going to use fastboot to flash cwm you need usb debugging check under settings/dev options
easier way is to flash twrp recovery
their thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677670
mainly just download goo mananger from play store
open it
tap on menu, mine is the 3 dots
tap on Install OpenRecoveryScript
follow directions
with twrp you can flash radios and most roms without flashing kernel thru fastboot
always have a nandroid and sdcard bu before doing these things
Yes, I've done that already uh sing hassoons tool kit. Probably just stick with reg cwm. Not on recovery much anyways. Have used cwm for a couple years. I tried the twrp rec. For a few minutes.

Hi I have used the tool kit, but some of the recoveries there don't work. I found this file online after searching and it does work with my HTC One S. This is touch recovery, pretty good, actually.
You can just flash the .img file through:
a) adb command(fastboot), might be faster for you.
or
b) you can put this file(extract it first) into the "data" folder of the tool kit, but you will have to edit bat file to be able to integrate your new .img file with the UI. I did this way.
This is the link where I got the above recovery. http://www.modaco.com/topic/353006-...ch-recovery-for-the-htc-one-s-stock-download/
This link also have stock .img you might need in the future. I tried both the recovery and stock files, they both worked well.
See if this will help you out.

Cant make a nandroid in recovery

Yesterday I rooted my 8013 note with UEALGB software and tried to make a nandroid in high on android cwm. It would reboot recovery everytime i started the backup process. So i flashed TWRP through goo manager app then tried to make a nandroid and the same thing would happen. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.
Edit: I just tried to flash the stock recovery and it seems like I am stuck with cwm or twrp. I flashed stock recovery through Odin and it said it was successful but when I reboot into recovery I still have custom recovery.
Edit: Seems to only happen when I try to backup the system partition.

What method did you use to root your Note 10.1?

Zeodmaxs root without recovery first then I went back and flashed high on android cwm through Odin later in the night because I wanted to start playing around with stuff.

The root injected image causes problems. I think you're gonna have to ODIN the original image back on it to fix it. Search around, it's here somewhere.
Go for method #2 next time. Roots without an issue.
Did you flash the the Superuser.zip file after flashing Zedomaxs cwm.tar fie in odin? This is needed to get true root priveleges.
Not sure why you can't reflash a stock rom though, that's how I've always gotten rid of root access to revert back to stock...

Which root method to use?

Hi. Forgive me if I am in the wrong section. I want to door my Rogers one x. I went to the Rogers one x compilation and could not find the right one. My firmware is 3.17.631.2. Can I use the root method listed for 3.18? I do not want to mess things up. I previously used Hassoons toolkit to unlock the boot loader. Now when I use it to install tarp, I do not think it recognizes my phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Think you.

All you need to do is go to htcdev and unlock your bootloader there, then you can flash TWRP 2.6, and flash a custom ROM, smooth sailing!

I had downloaded a twrp zip file and unzipped it as well as an SU file. From there I am unsure how to flash them onto my phone. I did plug my phone into my PC and tried to locate the internal SD but could not. If you could give me any clearer directions, that would be great. Thank you.

I know you were able to install TWRP using Goo Manager. But the proper way to install using your PC, would be using fastboot, with the command:
fastboot flash recovery filename.img
Where "filename" is the actual name of the recovery .img file.
Another thing to note, you don't need to unzip the recovery zip file.
