I got stuck because the evo-root.zip link here on the website doesn’t appear to work, so I can’t download the zip file used in the video. Are there plans to make it available again?

its telling me that adb is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file

  Download the r06 version of the SDK. For some reason the latest versions don’t include adb (stupid, I know)

i cant get the # to pop at the end of part 1

  Any solution to this? I’m getting the same thing.
quest1
okay i did what it had said but about the
“adb” part it doesnt show up in the folder what can i do to fix that?
- http://thedroiddemos.com Brent Klauck (djR3Z)
  You’ll need to download the r06 version of the SDK
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1404580852 ‘Sarah Ranzau
You really need to take this down as there is now better options without having to back up your
EVO because of the inevitable data wipe using your method here (it’s outdated). This is a better option: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776477&highlight=unrevoked
- http://thedroiddemos.com Brent Klauck (djR3Z)
  We don’t take down posts. That would defeat the purpose of bringing users to the site to find information. Rather, we note that there is an update, which is shown at the beginning of the video.

i download everything you got and iget to the command prompt and i get this message when i try to type in the first command ‘ adb’ is not reconized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file…what do i need to do ive spent hours trying to root my htc evo 2.2

  I am good to go. I used your new video that is short and sweet and worked perfectly.
Flying_sailor
First off, I know and understand you won’t have time to speedily reply to everyone’s questions, but I am freaking the F*#K out right now. I’ve been following your original 2-part video tutorial, with only a few hiccups along the way. I am now at the 12:10min in the second video where you instruct me to highlight recovery and hit power to select it. My phone’s display looked, and still looks, exactly as yours did initially, with the htc evo 4g with white background. The problem is, in your video, you do not state how long this screen should stay that way, simply cut video and spliced in the next step after that. Sorry to be so longwinded, but as I said, I’m pretty freakin stressed right now, being that my phone has been like this at least twenty minutes now, with no change. Please please please please respond when you can. I’ve scrolled through the other posts here and found others with the exact same problem, but no reply from you. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. My email is flying_sailor@yahoo.com
- http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
  Have you tried the Unrevoked method that I’ve posted? It’ll reduce your stress. If you want to continue with this method, take out your battery, put it back in and repeat that step.
mustireally
worked pefectly from August till now that is
mustireally
This worked perfectly for me and then something happened back in August, something happened recently? I lost root, and now I’m in the 2.2 again without the ability to repeat the steps above without getting to the part where after hboot the PC36IMG.zip should be flashing, it says no image found PC3DIAG.zip. This sucks. I’m in need of a big brain and since I’m traveling light anyone out there sporting some green power would be much appreciated. Thanks
P.S I already switched sdcards to no avail.
Torremitsu
I tried this, I got to the 2nd video and im stuck in red triangle hell. Help
http://twitter.com/SamuelWolff Samuel Wolff
at the end, when you flash the recovery mod (i chose clockwork) how long should the HTC splashscreen stay up? mine’s been there for almost 30 minutes now, and i’m worried.
Tfx22
How long before we get to amon ra screen after hitting recovery. my phone is stuck on the white screen with the htc evo 4g log. did i do someting wrong
Ewillis101082
where do I find the files to update to 2.2 (part 2 root amon ra.zip)?
Keith
hey thanks a lot worked perfect! i used the amon ra and i’m wondering if i can load roms and themes the same as clockwork? everything i’ve been reading about it say you have to have clockwork i’m new to this any help would be great

when typing in command prompt and moving files to sdcard, command reads ”no adb command?then then goes back to C:/android>

Chawonkang
Can i root it with XP? Or it has to be Vista? Because im downloading this crap on my phone in the CMD and its taking up to 655,000 sec for just 591 KB/s…..
And your was like less than a second. Why would it take so long for me? Please help….

Hey djR3Z I have a quick question. I rooted my phone using this method, and everything went well. When I checked my phones update it says there was version 3.29.651.5 avaliable. I found they have also rooted this version and did a flash rom to this software update. I currently have have software nunber 3.29.651.5 but my baseband version is different, It states it should be 2.15.00.09.01 but mine states 2.15.00.07.28, I was wondering why is that? Also i am having a problem with my wifi. It says its connecting then disconnects, its not connecting to my home wireless connection. Can you please help me!

DJ- Thank you very much for taking the time to post this video. While I experienced a few scares along the way (because I’m new), I was finally able to finish the process. Maybe I missed it on this page, but to help future people, is it possible to list all of the software (and the links) that needs to be downloaded in order to finish this process? I found everything but I had to dig a little. Thank you again! Without people like you taking the time to share information, many of us would still be stuck hammering away at stone tablets.

Trying to do the root, when I get to the part where I need to start entering in the CMD with Windows 7, I get this error message after pressing enter for the first line “abd push unrevoked-forever.zip /sdcard/” : 'abd' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Need help ASAP!!!
- Aaron
  do you have a android-sdk-windowsplatform-tools folder? That is where my adb is. If so, cd there instead of tools
- Gray2468
  In tools there is a file that say’s “ADB has moved”. double click and it gives you directions to run the SDK manager
Crystal
after you download the software from unrevoked it just runs it, it wont give me the option to extract and then it goes to the boot loader what am i doing wrong? and yes i did uninstall htcsync http://www.infoomatic.com/root-htc-evo-4g-android-22-froyo.html from the link im stuck on step 20

Radar_Love
Dun!!! & loving it so far, i did 2 evo's all worked 1 time out, oh hey, whats the best tether to go with? also do you have a link on installing them as well…..i'm a bit comp savy, just not on the programming area. Anyways thanks hella much man now if i can just find somethng else to um……h-a-c-k!!…
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Can you go into Settings>>About Phone>>Software Information and tell me your Android version. Also, do you see superuser in your app drawer?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
appreciate it bro
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Sorry for the delays man. Unrevoked pulled the download so I can't legally release a tutorial yet. As soon as its put back up I will release a tutorial. No guarantees on when that will be though. If you're up for it I'd go ahead and do this method. You'll learn more in the process
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Don't accept the update. I'm not exactly sure where you got stuck but it seems like you're rooted, so boot into recovery, transfer over a Custom ROM, flash it, and you should be set.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
I like them all I switch on a daily basis simply because I like trying things out so much. Can't go wrong with Baked Snack. Really nice stock feel. If you want AOSP go with CM6. My fave Sense ROM is Virus ROM
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Try retransferring the PC36IMG.zip. Seems like it didn't transfer correctly.

Loveis234
ok,, well after almost having a heart attack,, lol! i am final rooted on 2.2 froyo… ok no i am stoked,, to get a custom ROM! any suggestion?? thanks r3z
Loveis234
first let me thank you for your time in doing this,,,,, but i am freaking out here! i followed you instructions to the T,, get down to the hboot, black screen,,, and that unrevoked zip is not on the sdcard! what do i do??,,, i re-booted the phone and to my surprise i have root access,,, but no custom rom! I see that super user icon in the app's page! can i still continue and get a rooted 2.2??,,, or should i follow the prompt in my phone for the “optional” up-grade?? and if i do follow that prompt, since i already have root,, if i accept the upgrade will that be a “rooted 2.2″” i was wanting to try out that cyanogen mod6,, any comments on what is better??
Radar_Love
hi Djrez, hey u mentioned another tutorial coming, will it be out today or? just wondering cause i'm gonna root, just want to know if i should move forward on the existing 1, thanks much!!
sh0ke
thank u very much!! didn't have any problem at all, ur the man! keep it going
Bonnierae57
I know you get soo many questions, but could you please help me? I installed everything correctly by using your newbie friendly rooting method,and then everything started freezing…etc. Afterward I installed flipz fresh rom and it continued doing the same thing. I then tried simple root and added fresh rom again and had the same results. Sooo I Tried your method again and I was unable to get the $ sign ( I tried 4 times) Considering the fact that I did it correctly the first time I figured I screwed something up. Sooo I came across your unroot video and I tried that only to be stuck with a red triangle and question mark. It is now back on I guess the clockwork mod…I just want a fully functional phone. I promise to leave rooting and so on and so fourth to the professionals. This is my email address bonnierae57@live.com. I can also send you my number if necessary.
Thanks
Alex_onderdonk
thank you so much you saved me phone
Radar_Love
Thanks, appreciate the quick response. will be rooting this weekend, looking forward to the new tutorial. Great job btw!!!
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
you'll still get 4g. The only data you can back up is contacts by exporting them and apps with appbrain (but it wont back up the data from them)
Radar_Love
If after rooting, does the evo still get a hotspot at 4g speeds? also all my personal data is wipedout when rooting, this i understand, can i save my data on a sd card then re-upload to the phone?
Whatdatata
I tried adding another rom after my phone kept freezing as you suggested but it keeps doing the same thing. Grrrr.
Droidquestions
Awesome video man. Thanks for taking the time to do this.
Is there a particular reason you prefer Amon_RA's recovery over ClockworkMod?

I havent got a responce to this but so posted it again, i already have the 2.2 update that downloaded from sprint i guess, can you still root the phone after the factory 2.2 update has been installed? from your video it looks like you need to start with the 2.1 first, am i missing something?

Hello,
The unrevoked3 reflash_package.exe has been taken down from unrevoked website and I am unable to locate that file. Is it OK to use the version 2 from the website? http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked3
I am now unsure of how to proceed. Can someone please help me?
Josh.0
They took down the Unrevoked3 flash recovery tool from the website http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked3
What do I do now? am I stuck until this comes back up or should I just use the unrevoked2 version? anybody have the flash_package.exe? ffffuuuuuu
Italusa
Everything is fine with me the only thing is that when i start the phone show me the sprint animation how do i get rid of it. Thanks for your great videos.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Unrevoked 3.2 has come out, which makes the process a lot simpler. Stay tuned for a tutorial. I'm going try to have it up by tomorrow morning.
Bsweet
I just went to the unrevoked3 website and it states that it is currently unavailable and to use unrevoked2 with a link to it. When I click the link it brings me to a page that is kind of unclear about which unrevoked it is and weather or not it will work with this process. I am in the middle of this right now and don't know what to do next. Can you help?
Alexanderz2000
hi, thank for the great video but also confused, i already have the 2.2 update that downloaded from sprint i guess, can you still root the phone after the factory 2.2 update has been installed? from your video it looks like you need to start with the 2.1 first, am i missing something?
FuzzyBunny
Alright first off great right ups and videos on how to root the phone, my only problem so far is that I've gone to the unrevoked website but they have removed the download for the unrevoked3. I've completed all the steps leading up to this point successfully. Please let me know what I should do at this point.
huyh
Well after an hour of repeatedly watching the video, i was able to root to 2.2. It wasnt that bad, just takes some time. My question is do i need to delete the PC36IMG.zip file after my Evo is rooted just so that it wont scan it the next time i go to the boot menu?
Great Work!
Tgodec
Thanks for the great walk through.
When i try to use the adb push unrevoked-forever.zip /sdcard/ command, I get an error message saying “error: device not found”
I am running windows vista, have downloaded and uninstalled the HTC sync a few times and followed the steps from your video and xda guide. I have also tried to update my drivers using the htcevohacks.com walk through. My computer was not recognizing my phone in the device manager the same way his was.
Thanks for your help and let me know if there is anymore info you need.

Is there a quick fix to this rebooting issue?

I got the phone rooted, but when I try to delete Nascar and Football, the Delete buttons are greyed out. Is there another way to do this?

Great Video! Very thorough. Thanks for this. I feel confident I'll be able to do this once I pick up my phone.
Hambertvazquez
I am in androidtools and 'adb' is listed. But what I did notice on your video is that on your C:androidtools folder you have 'adb.exe' maybe that could be why its not recognizing the 'adb' on mine. I have tried to start all over from the very beginning and this is my 3rd time getting the same message.
- Mogusuccess
  I’m getting the same message about not recognized as an internal or external command my tools file doesnt have the adb.exe file in it and the evo-root.zip file is 15.1kb on your video it’s 16. is there another evo-root.zip file I’m not seeing? I’ve started from scratch several times. Please help
  - Shelprock
    adb,exe is in the platform-tools dir if you add that dir to you path it will find it and work.
    You do that by going into the control panel and then system, Advanced system settings, Environment Variables…,
    In the System Variables box hit the down arrow until you come to Path,
    Highlight it and the click Edit
    In the Variable Value box click on it and go to the end and add
    ;C:androidplatform-tools to the end and click OK, OK,OK.
    It should work now.
maaa
where did u get the android-usb-driver.zip from? TIA

ok, i followed everything and all is well. However, i cant get past the install usb driver step to get Android 1.0 in the 4:50min on part 2. (HTC Sych is uninstalled) When I connect the phone in bootloader I get the “HBOOT USB Plug” message just fine. However, I don't see the driver installed in Device Manager. I have Windows XP SP3. Any Help?
Italusa

EDao
Thanks for the videos. Curious – Can we just jump to the second video and skip part 1? What would happen? Thanks again.
Zmash
ok, i rooted! thank you so much djR3Z this vid was awesome! one thing though, i know i can delete most of the stuff off the SD card, but can i delete the busybox file? i only ask cause i want to make sure it isnt part of the recovery and it didnt seem to be used in the process unless the 2.2 root install utilized it
Buycarlos
you save my live, you did excellent, thanks.

traybent

traybent
i cant get pass the $ After the chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image
Rem2nd
i was stuck there also.

he said that at that point he picked up his evo and lost connection with pc so he reconnected

just continue on that line with $
Vatiboy24
i had the same problem juss start typing cd /data/local/tmp it in fonrt of the $ and ur good to go
Jvital33
once i get to the part where u input chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image….it just gives me another dollar sign but dont get android tools like you…it kind of looks lik u skipped somewhere inbetween putting that code in because once i saw u put it in……u got a dollar sign lik me…but then the video skipped to u with ur phone in hand…and wen u went back to the computer u had android/tools and i still had a dollar sign…..and it seems that im missing that auto-sign file inside the android sdk folder
Fochunkooky
I follow everything exactly, right down to “reboot bootloader” at this point when I get the white screen, it says that the PC36IMG.zip cannot be found! but it is definitely in there, I checked to see! What is wrong!? I am so frustratedddddd!! xD
Purpleguy
Could you please post a simple procedure on how to factory restore or “unroot”. You may ask why. Well if it comes to me returning the phone for a replacement or for whatever reason I don't want any hassles about voiding any warranties.
By the way great tutorial. A sort of split screen, screen recorded version would be awesome, but hey I'm happy with what you provided.
geocalleo
Thank you so much! Your videos made it a breeze to root my evo!
H2990g

Rem2nd

Hello, im stuck on the very last step of the process. My phone simply reboots into android system recovery!!! Help, please im dying here!
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Even when you reboot from there?

I'm stuck on the very last step. I downloaded and flashed the 2.2-root.zip and the system just reboots back to the black screen with green writing

Did you follow my custom recovery video?

I really want to finger this out! But i cant get past chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image then a $ press enter, how do i get back to C:androidtools>adb shell .
Scrib4lex
dj, you probably noticed im following you around asking questions on all your vids – thanks making these – really helps. So i have been trying to trouble shoot my lack of ability to flash a custom recovery, namely the AmonRA recovery. I keep getting the error flash image: not found. So, being a total noob, i have no idea whats going on, but i know that i adb pushed the flash_image to “data/local/” during the root process. i properly renamed the AmonRa recovery image as recovery.img and put it on the root of my sd card. So what can i possibly be doing wrong? does the flash_image need to be on the root of the sd card as well? thanks for the help
Hopskipjump87
when i attempt to add the PC36IMG.zip /sdcard/
i get this message “no such file or directory”
The file is clear in the tools folder as “PC36IMG.zip
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
No, pull down from the notification bar and change from charge only to disk drive
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Dont do everything over again, just load a different rom
Shansmith68
after PC36IMG step I gor # sign not a $ sign?

there was a step skipped at the 12 min mark
Bonnierae57
I would like to thank you for this video, it really helped me out. I only have one issue. My phone keeps jumping…for lack of a better term….it's like it has a mind of its own. I went to take a picture one night and it kept zooming in and out. When I try to make a phone call it freezes. should I do everything all over again?
Thanks for reading.
Hcocdr
In part 2- what is ment by “Once It is fully booted, mount your sdcard onto your computer, and copy the 3 files you extracted from the zip to the sdcard.
Once copied, Unmount your sdcard from the computer.”
Is that just pluging and unpluging the phone in SD card mode or do we need another card?
Aspenufl
I went through the whole root process and everything seemed to work. However, now my EVO is slower and it still doesn't let me use the tether or hotspot functions. I just get a Data Call Failure, “Error Code 67 .Registration failure. Your PCS Vision username and/or password may be incorrect. Please try again.” Thanks.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Looks like you stuck an extra forward slash. Make sure you type it exactly as I did.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Did you do the airplane mode toggling? What happened?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Try downloading the mirror. Also, is your sdcard formatted as fat32?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Looks like the file is corrupt or it didnt transfer correctly. Try it again and also try downloading the mirror instead.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
You should be fine with it saying 0 bytes. Its not reporting correctly. Just continue.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Does the phone's screen go black? Or do you force it to reboot.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
It sounds like you either didn't install the SDK or you are in the wrong directory. Make sure you installed it to the write location and went to the write folder in the process. Follow the tutorial exactly.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
did you both create the SDK directory and “cd” to that folder?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
You must do it less than 30 seconds after the transfer or it can cause problems. Try transferring again.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Check out my video for how to flash a custom recovery for information on getting back Amon RA. As for unrooting, it can be done, but why would you want to?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
No problem!
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
I'm not really sure what problem you're having. Can you be more specific?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
No problem. Glad it helped
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
take out the battery and try again. Are you done with the root process? Or are you still working on it. You might need to flash the recovery again.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
I did not incorrectly state that. At the time, it had not been tested in anything except for Windows and to wait until it was confirmed to work fine in other OS's

  Hi im a HTC Evo User i haven’t done anything to my evo yet, my android version is 2.2 baseband version is 2.15.00.09.01 and software number is 3.29.651.5 and browser version is webkit 3.1 PRI Version 1.77_003 PRL Version 60670. i was wondering if i could still root that version just like it is. or do i still have to wait.
  i tried rooting it before but the version that i was using was unrevoked 2.1 i think so i think my phone didnt want to accept it. please let me know what i can do .. thank you
  and one other question does froyo install itself on your phone with out you doing anything? the reason why i ask is becuase my phone updated itself and i had almost the same similar updates like froyo 2.2 let me know if they are the same thing or not? thank you my email is Sjimmyperuano07@hotmail.com
  thanks again!
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Make sure you're in the /android/tools directory and that adb is listed in there

  I have extracted the evo-root.zip and it doesnt contain an adb.exe file it is 15.1kb and in your video it’s 16kb. please help.

Thank you very much I got stuck and was able to use the video to see where i messed up i really appreciate you doing the tutorial for all of us to see. now i got a rooted evo
larryP
thanks for you effort. everything was good until i got to the chmod /data/local/flash/image part or something like that… the thing is it didnt look good at that point so i kinda freaked and instead i deleted all the files that was pushed to the sdcard. what else should i do to switch my phone back.it seems to be working fine now but i wanna make sure it wont go shit on me later on . i ll try it again later. i ll just keep researching on it for now. tahnk you so much
Hambertvazquez
Im in the same spot. Have you gotten an answer?

Just wanted to say thanks, it went nice and smooth thanks to your video and to the guide posted by Dan.
Chchristopher
Thanks for this awesome tutorial! Just did it and now I'm trying out some ROMs.
I do have a couple questions though. At what step can I use to revert the phone back to the stock 2.2 after it's rooted (at the end of the tutorial)? This being my first time, I didn't know how to make a Nandroid of that, and I would like to have that just in case I ever need to go back.
And also, will that give me the AmonRa recovery again (lost it after using ROM Manager).
Thanks so much!

when i get to chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image in adb shell it says no such file or directory please any help will be appreciated

Why is it doing that?

Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Barrera925
The unrevoked app keeps getting stuck on the 'Waiting for reboot' message. This is after using the volume up key to go down to the HBoot loader. My phone then reboots to the actual opperating system and never gets to the recovery screen like in Pt. 2 (7:34)…any thoughts?
Fred
Thanks for the great write up and video, I have tried after all steps followed C:androidtools> adb push flash_image /data/local/ but I get (0 bytes in 655360.000s). Meaning nothing was transferred? Correct?
How can I check the USB debug connection? Thanks again

(step) In the command prompt

wow excellent work my friend, got it done and i am very glad you made this!!!
Cloudonhigh
Thanks for the tutorial. I followed it step by step but when i get to the part where you hit bootloader and it loads the PC136 image, it loads it really quick and then takes me back out to the bootloader screen. It never asks me to apply the zip or give me the options that pop up when you did it…please…WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? Ive restarted the whole process this 3 time with the same result…
Musole
My phone is already rooted but this video guide is gold matey!!! Thank you, thank you!

    Next problem I am not able to get the PC36IMG file to give me the screen where I get the updates and the ok, I am STUCK , It seems to be the same problem I had when I was using unrevoked 3 , very strange before I tried this method, Their must be a way past this part. HELP any ideas
    - http://pulse.yahoo.com/_HV5V6MQZLAQHRHEZ252XS4IUAE Coal Akida
      I found 3 different PC36IMG files, I noticed you are not using the one you are telling everyone to download, So i manually transferred over the PC36 zip to the Sd card and than tried to parse that, and I got the Radio Failed and the Partition to fail which left with a phone that would not boot or recover, I never had the chance to try the third PC36IMG file out but it was the biggest file 179 mb
      the other was 176 and the one you have download 36 . so I tried to buy a micro sd card reader but it would not work on the mac, I only used the mac for the reader, as i was borrowing my friends window laptop, the piece that it was.
      My question is what PC36IMG FILE SHOULD I HAVE USED ?
      Since i got all the way to the end of the show on your video, am I able to manually copy over the PC36IMG file and update that way.
      Now I am at the sprint store , where they have a lot of people lined up for Update problems..
      - http://pulse.yahoo.com/_HV5V6MQZLAQHRHEZ252XS4IUAE Coal Akida
        WOW, they gave me a new phone, that was unexpected, and somehow the market looks different, makes me think my initial update to OTA was not perfect. ummmmmmmm Please let me know when I try to root my new phone again. please.

I have a problem?? I did everything right and the very last thing I had to do was boot from recovery and the screen has been stuck for over 15 minutes now. its white and says htc EVO 4G is it supposed to take this long or did I mess up somewhere? I watched you do everything 2 times and did everything step by step and thought I did it correctly?
thanks for your help
oh, also should i turn the phone off or leave it in the white screen. i don't want to mess it up?
Rem2nd

http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
see reply
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Try uninstalling HTC Sync and then starting over.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
you need to change it to C:androidtools not C:android/tools
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Yep!
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Don't be so hard on yourself
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Thats odd that you have PRI 1.34. You shouldnt but if you're rooted, don't worry about it. 1.34 is better lol
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
The only things you can backup unrooted are your apps with “AppBrain” and backing up your contacts tot he SD card if they're not backed up to Google.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Awesome! Enjoy it man
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
you can ignore those. I've added additional things for more development capabilities
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
try transferring again.
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
You shouldn't be running adb from shell
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Yeah I need to get some software. Mac and Win suggestions?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
Yep
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
I did run it. At 8:00 in Part II

mine does the same thing and i have no clue what to do . have you gotten a reply yet?
HTC4Life
I followed the steps from the video and I noticed you never ran unrevoked forever. I happened to look at the post and see they run it so I ran it after completing the steps in the video. How do I know if it's working properly?
Jeremeytripp
Can you delete the files from the SD when you are done?
http://twitter.com/BdGF10 Ben Goos

I was participating in this rooting process when I got to the PC36IMG.zip portion and that it would erase the Android user data. I'm a noob to this rooting stuff. What's contained in such data and how do I back it all up? Thanks for the help everyone.

Thanks for the video!!! It works great!!! The only thing I noticed is that you have PRI version 1.40_003 and mine shows PRI version 1.34_003. How do I update this? I went to the update screen but it says there are no updates available.

hey man great video, I got a question? When i input on the c:android/tools adb push unrevoked-forever.zip /sdcard/ it tells me that adb is not a recognized command external or internal. Help please
Mikevilla
also, im running Win7x64.
Mikevilla
hmm, unfortunately updating the drivers like your guide shows didn't work for me either. just now tried again and the only thing i see is after I plug in the phone (USB debugging and Charge only), I get a Android Phone failure when it attempts to install the driver. any suggestions?
Hblap
He incorrectly states that you have to do this in windows. that is not true, if you are using linux you dont have to worry about any drivers or sync apps it just works… so in fact its easier to do all of this from linux than windows
wineguy
When I try to run adb push unrevoked-forever.zip /sdcard/ from the command prompt it's showing 0 data moved? Any ideas or suggestions?
http://thedroiddemos.com djR3Z
This guide gives instructions for this. Also, once the drivers installed, users need to know that HTC Sync needs to be uninstalled or it can interfere with the rest of the process.
Thanks for the post Mike.
Mikevilla
be sure your USB drivers are up to date. You can download and get directions here: http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-hacks/how-to-ins…
Agent007
make sure your phone is on “charge only” and usb debugging is checked. start all over. but first, power down and then power up. keep in mind to delete htc sync before starting over.
Agent007
IF PERMISSION IS DENIED AFTER TYPYING “./flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd-eng.img” pull battery out and manually reboot the phone to boot loader. Meaning: turn off the phone, volume down and power button press at the same time to go to reboot. scroll down to boot loader after phone is done checking.
AGENT007
MAKE SURE ANY OLD WIFI TETHER APPS ARE DELETED B4 INSTALL NEW VERSION.
AGENT007
MAKE SURE ALL UNREVOKED FILES, APPS ARE DELETED FROM SDCARD FIRST.
Infoe
it gives permission denied when trying to move the unrevoked the mtd-eng.img and the PC36IMG.zip to the sdcard can anyone help?

Ok so my first intention to root my precious EVO is to get the free hotspot and tethering capability, how can I do that?
Pfflynn
Excellent demo. Thanks man!
Chicorey06
mine did the same and i almost went crazy, but all you have to do is take your battery out and put it back in, go back to boot screen and let it update the pc36img again and then boot back into recovery. that worked for me…..
Pozer562
When i go to the device manager it's unknown and won't allow me to install the modified usb driver. Please help!!!
supsandroid
never mind, i rebooted. reran the PC36image. rebooted again and removed the image. then went back into recovery and flashed the 2.2 no problem. not sure what caused it to freeze on that screen
supsandroid
on the very last step where you go into recovery to flash the 2.2. well mine went to the white “htc evo 4g” screen and is stuck there. any tips?
Tylerzagame
I got everything done and correct up until the command prompt screen….. help?
Rood371
Question for you and please help, I am at the point where I just started recovery after loading the pcimg from AMON_RA's file, and it reboots normally but has just been at the white htc evo 4g screen for about 10 minutes now, is this natural? Just curious please help.
