S=off 1.49.2 Hboot in update.zip format - Droid Eris Android Development

Link removed until i can test again sorry...
Disclaimer: While tested, and working on ECLIPS3's test device, this is a risky flash. Flashing this is at your own risk. If data or property loss occurs, its you fault, not mine.
The s-off spl allows you to use fastboot, and can make recovery of a "softbricked" device much easier.
Flash this like any other flashable file through recovery.

Nice way better than doing a battery pull when flashing the original root zip.

The battery pull method won't even work on phones with a newer mainversion, so yeah way better.

I had the same issue. The file you downloaded is corrupted. Try downloading again. If it still persists, maybe the upload got corrupted and jcase should try posting it again.

I re-downloaded it twice - same error. Just to be clear, we just flash it like we would any ROM, right?

I tried all of the downloads and they all gave me the same error as seen above.

If you try to open the zip with Winzip or something, it'll error out saying the file is corrupted. I suspect the upload didn't complete successfully.

so in theory when this does work it will flash the eng. rooted 2.1 or just the bootloader? im not trying to go through everything again but if it only replaces the bootloader then im game. Other wise im just waiting till i get my replacement tomorrow.

i waited around 10 minutes, now everything is booting fine, reloading my data, and lets see what really imprived
I took the battery out, and then went and wiped and reformatted my SD chip, reloaded the zip image to flash but it wasn't showing through the recovery menu, so I booted and it went further in 1 minute than it did in 15 without redoing the SD chip. Just no internet....
Reflashing right now.
I flashed to the new rom, have I lost my root, do I have to re-root my phone?
because I am trying to install fonts I had on my old rom, and I keep getting the following error
downloading 'boot.img'... failed (remote: not allow)
I've had the same issues with my phone when flashing
To DamageControl. The only one that worked for ne was DamageControl 2.02. And it
Was so buggy I flashed back to modoco
If you're trying to push files you'll have to do
adb remount
you still have root, no worries

ClockworkMod Recovery Updated

Version 3. What are the changes?
Sent From My HTC Evo 4G On The Now Network From Sprint Using Tapatalk Pro!
Not breaking your WiMax? That sounds like a good feature. I think I even saw a commit for CMR to back up WiMax partition. Not entirely sure yet.
I keep getting an error when trying to flash to version 3? Error is generic......"There was and error when flashing your recovery"...
Thoughts?
Mine just flashed successfully. Was on an earlier version of cw previously. Does Rom manager have root privileges?
I installed it on my early 003 evo. And couldn't do a nand it attempted to but it would only do boot.img. same thing on wife evo

Same thing is happening to me. I saw a post somewhere stating the update isn't playing nicely with pre-004 hardware and a fix is on the way. Wish I could find that post again. Sucks, I was about to test out a new theme I've been slowly putting together.
I spoke to clockworkmod himself. He did state that it doesn't work proper on older hboots. He didn't mention anything about a fix, but I'm hoping there is a fix in the works.

Worked AOK on my 97. I wonder what the common denominator is for those that it's not working for?
I got this while trying to flash recovery 3.0.0.0 "An error occurred while attemping to run privileged commands!"
I wanted to update here and say that while the update to the new 3.0.0.0 went smoothly, it does prevent flashing of zip's.
For you guys still having problems, just flash to the RA recovery, rename your zip to PC36IMG.zip, place on the root of your phone and flash zip from SD and you'll be off to the races.
I'm sure there will be an update to the new ClockworkMod but for now, to get the job done, Rom Manager will quickly and easily flash the RA recovery for you and get you on your way.
HTH
I just got a message that version 3.0.0.2 is available. Perhaps the flashing issue has been addressed already.

Constant Boot Loop and can't get to recovery

I was trying to flash my EVO to Boost mobile and this is where my trouble began. After I had went through the steps of flashing I had to reboot. Upon reboot I get a constant reboot. When I try to go to recovery it goes to the htc screen and then keeps rebooting. I have tried flashing clockwork...I have tried the PC36IMG.zip...I have tried many stock RUU's and none of them work. Has anyone ever heard of this because of flashing? I have a link to a vid I posted on youtube....

I would say you need to specify more of what you're doing. I'd recommend installing Rom Manager, then in the Rom Manager app, do the "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" (the app is in the market).
Then download whatever rom you want, like CM 7.1 and copy it over to your cf card. Then run the Rom Manager again, and tell it to 'Install ROM from SD Card'
Realize, as is always stated, I am not responsible if you brick your phone. Be very careful to ensure everything is done right.
Bad downloads sometimes abort. Have you verified the MD5 hash of any of the zips before you tried flashing? Also, what ROMs did you try?

Assuming you did everything else right, which seems likely since you got S off, this is the most likely answer.
It's also the easiest thing to try and fix because you can just redownload the ROM and try again with a fresh copy. And ROM's do get corrupted during downloads more often than you're think, so it's not unlikely that this is your problem.
Also, download it from the phone using Clockworkmod. Less chance of the file getting borked on the transfer to the SD card.

The downloaded rom should already be zipped, so no need to zip it. And if you need to zip them back up I think it has to be without compression.
Thanks everybody. Seems like i was making harder then it was. I just had to leave my computer out of it and everything works fine.

Flashing CleanCB

For the life of me, I cannot get either version to flash. I've read, and reread this thread (I'm a reader) as well as everything in general - the wiki (I'm a reader). Just need 2 say that before JC is brought up in any response I get. At any rate, I boot into cw, wipe and flash. Each time and I've tried 4 times now, I get stuck at the Samsung screen. I'm on EL30, also have the modem and I'm rooted...I've done this many times bu cannot get this ROM to work for me....and I oh so wanna buy the dev a beer.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tried one last time to flash BML - had to nandroid back again.
I've read a lot, a whole lot and I still cannot figure it out.
OK, try reflashing CWM 5.0.2.7 first. then do a Factory Data reset in CWM then flash the ROM right after. Don't use ROM Manager. See how that works. If you tried the MTD version then use that one. You may want to Odin back to BML with repartition checked if you want to try that one.

WinRAR is your friend. To test the integrity of a ROM zip file, open with WinRAR, click on Commands > Test archived files and it should come back with "no errors found" if it's a good download.

very helpful information. I have read a lot about people having issues with bad downloads. Nice to know you can check them like that. I have noticed in flashing various roms that I have come across some random glitches. Perhaps this could be the culprit. Thanks again.
Users should ALWAYS verify the integrity of ROM downloads using the md5 sums posted by the developer. If you download directly to your phone you can use the "properties" view in Root Explorer. If you've got it on your PC you can use the utilities found here - http://www.winmd5.com/
