Hi guys,
I've tried using unrevoked 3.3 on my wildfire, with android 2.1, didn't work - so I tried 3.2 and I got the ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1 on there, I can boot into that now,
But still not knowing how to root it,
Can someone give me some advice from here, I get the "Internal error" message and can't go any further, but I assume you can manually do it, since I've got the clockworkmod recovery on there,
Toby =)

if you have clockworkmod recovery then that means you rooted it, just put a custom rom onto your sd card, boot into recovery and install zip from sd card. do a nandroid backup of your rom first.
When I try using Titanium Backup, I get a failed message...

Okay, I installed busy box and it says it rooted, does the clockworkmod matter what version you have?

Nope, you should be fine.
Thank you, I'll let you know how it goes, is Wildpuzzle rom trustworthy? It's been around for awhile right? =)
Yeah wildpuzzle is good, I used to use it.
I had abit of a freak out, I wiped my phone then couldn't load any custom rom =( But now its loading, hoping it works...
I don't know if the rom is loading or not, the screen with the android symbol coming out of the box showed up now and white backgroud with the "HTC quietly brilliant" animation seems to be sitting there forever,
I installed the SUnAaBh v1.1** rom from sc card,
Does this seem right?
First boot takes 10 to 15 min.
You should have done a nandroid backup of your stock rom first, oh well.
If it doesn't boot, do a full wipe, wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache in recovery and flash again.
After like 2 or 3 minutes, the screen goes black then the HTC logo screen comes back on and loads again, makes me think its in a loop and no installed right =\
Do a full wipe and try flash again. If it doesn't work, try a different rom.
Yeah, I did a back up with nandroid then moved the files to my computer incase, they was in a folder called orangeworkmod folder?,
Wipe cache?

Yes, you should wipe data and cache before installing a new rom. They are all there in recovery.
Okay, yeah - its all good, was just taking time, does wildpuzzle rom have overclocking feature, or is that a application?
So i have a desire hd from Three, which is unlocked and unbranded, i rooted the phone via the visionary method, got s-off, used rom manager to install clockwork mod recovery which was 2.5.1 something rather, then i created a backup, upgraded to clockwork 3.0.0.1, tried to install the cyanogenmod 6.1.3 via rom manager but didnt work, so i downloaded the zip file manually and tried to update via clockwork mod recovery now in 3.0, restarted, and am now stuck at the main HTC screen. Pulled the battery, then went back into clockwork recovery, tried to recover the backup i made, rebooted, but still stuck on htc white screen... dont know what to do help!
You could try flashing a RUU to go back to stock 1.32 would be best or you would need to downgrade to root, or you could try getting another rom image on your SD card isnt clockwork 3 4 ginger bread nightlies?
Just throwing ideas out there. Personally I would go woth the RUU.
Thanks for the reply, i remember finding some links with ruu's but i'm not sure which one i need and how to use it ?
Sorry just thought the other thing is how long did you leave it. I have read about people leaving for 30 mins and then it boots..
Start downloading this. Its the RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26 .03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed
http://www.multiupload.com/N333WKVW6M
while downloading leave your phone to boot it might surprise you..
I left it for a while but maybe not long enough, perhaps 15 minutes at one point? i'll try again, should i wipe data in clockwork and then reflash the cyanogenmod again? is it ok to keep the phone plugged into the computer via usb?
Sorry, once downloaded just run the EXE, it will walk you through the steps.
The Dev section has a lot of useful stuff in it for this sort of thing the 1st post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936214 is pretty usefull.

Worth a go whilst downloading, I would wipe 1st. Its good you still have your recovey partition (clockwork) so you should be fine. Use the RUU as the last resort as it will wipe recovery part and loose SOFF etc.. But should fix the phone.
Right so i've wiped data/factory reset and cache partition and dalvik cache, then went to choose zip from sd, chose update-cm-6.1.3-DesireHD-signed.zip, says Welcome to CyanogenMod-6.1.2-desireHD (strange?) completed. Now went to Reboot system now and waiting, still on HTC screen.
is it possible to put another rom on the sd card? i dont have a computer that i can plug the mini sd into, possible in recovery mode?

yes, but i dont know how of the top of my head, i will have a look in the dev forums, i think you use fastboot and u can push files. Hopefully someone with a bit more knowledge will see this post soon. I will have a look though.
so its been 30 minutes, and it's still at the htc screen... what should i do? should i try the RUU ? i dont want to brick my phone...
from what i can find fastboot will not push files, adb but may not connect on splash screen. You could just try pulling the battery and leaving it again to boot for a bit, mine has hung before like that. The Ruu should go through and connect to phone and go through flashing. Do you have another phone that could take the SD card? im gonna boot my phone to recovery and try to push a rom to it or file.
ok i am reading this post,http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558812
what i would do is goto recovery mode,
he command is:
adb shell mount /sdcard
adb push c:\******.*** /sdcard
exemple with g:\update.zip :
adb push g:\update.zip /sdcard
usefull when wrong rom flashed and no sdcard reader ^^
So i downloaded a cyanogenmod 7 nightly build, installed with with clockwork 3.0.0.5, and it worked, booted in, but had a continuous logo loop, going to try leedroid
Good luck, Leedroid rocks, thats what i use. I would say if it is still looping try the ruu and then start again. The RUU will esentially factory reset.
Installed the latest Cyanogen nightly build #23, and it works perfectly now should i keep it? or should i try leedroid? i kind of want to keep using htc sense, as i have all my contacts on it..
Up to you really. I went back to leedroid because it seems faster and more stable for me and I like some of the sense widgets.

I'm rooted, unrevoked; I'm currently stuck in a boot loop. I can not reach recovery. I can not get to my rom. I can only access bootloader.
So far I have taken these steps to cure my problem:
Ran RUU software in Windows (with and without sd card in evo)
Flashed RUU as PC36IMG in bootloader
Cleared Storage using fastboot in command prompt
Cleared Recovery and then Flashed Amon Ra's Recovery and Clockwork using fastboot in command prompt
Flashed Amon Ra's Recovery and Clockwork as PC36IMG in hboot
Flashed Sprint Lover's as PC36IMG in hboot
Flashed eng-PC36IMG from Toastctfh's Old Root Tutorial as PC36IMG in hboot
Each of these methods flashed successfully as far as I can tell... yet I still go into an infinite boot loop.
Before the bootloop this is what I was doing:
I had the initial CM7 nightly installed for about 2 weeks. It was buggy, and a few days ago restarted and deleted all my texts, and desynced from google. On rebooting, google apps acted as if I had never ran the phone before - it asked me to enter google account info, etc, upon reboot.
I decided CM7 was too unstable and so I wiped data and davlik, and flashed CM6. When CM6 booted google apps was already on, before I had even flashed it! Anyways I figured I wanted to give MIUI a run, so I wiped data and davlik, and flashed MIUI. It ran fine for about two hours, and then rebooted out of nowhere... and never came out of the boot loop.
I'm really starting to sweat this as I have gone three days now without a phone. Does anyone have any ideas that may help me? Thanks.
If I am unable to get out of my boot loop, does anyone know if I would be able to unroot my phone and then take it into Sprint and get another?
Are you able to boot into recovery?

bump to this as I am also experiencing this same situation. Phone stuck in an infinite bootloop to the white htc screen then all over again. can get into bootloader but not into recovery.
tried all the above. this was out of nowhere.
This problem is all over the Evo section, especially in Q&A and I don't think I've seen anyone come out of it.
On the positive side, I also don't think I've seen anyone take theirs back to Sprint and have a tech even check to see if their phone was rooted or not, and btw, next time you flash a new ROM, not saying this is the cause, wipe EVERYTHING, not just cache and dalvik-cache
Having the same problem here also...
didi you try the clear storage mode in the boot loader cause if you already flashed the PC36IMGyou wouldnt have a custom recovery just the triangle screen i recomend doing it with the original 2.1 zip file then just re rooting it put the rom then flash radio and g apps

I have tried everything you have mentioned and nothing works...
The OP's list of attempted fixes looks like he ran the gamut.
Unless there's a fix that I haven't read about, it's time for a trip to the Sprint store....
I have someone working on mine that claims he can get it fixed...has access to things I don't. We will see. I will report the results.
Ok...He did it and its up and running. I was trying to flash mine to Boost Mobile so thats how i got mine into a boot loop but he got mine out of it with this...Download the

So i went to this website called udromDOTcomfrom my phone and downloaded the Evo - UD 3.3.1 onto my phone. Then i went to ROM Manager and installed the ROM from the /downloads folder. I of course backed everything up and when it was installing it said installing, then i just happened to walk away at that moment so i didnt see if any errors came up or anything but then the phone restarted and now i am stuck at the HTC Evo 4G white screen. Any help on how to get past this screen. HELP ME PLEASE
Try this. If you made a backup, nandroid back to it. Go into your favorite file manager and move the Rom file to the root of your sd card. Then boot back into recovery and flash the Rom again.

from your description, you forgot to wipe. you are switching from sense to aosp, which is like switching from apples to oranges. you really need to wipe everything. second, i wouldn't use ud. they are just a modified cm7 (and for a long time, they denied it was anything close to cm7, enev though everyone and his brother could tell that they were the same. there was even proof in signatures of the files) so they are slower to update. i'd use the latest cm7 nightly, which is based on android 2.3.4, or the latest stable, which is based on 2.3.3.
And third, stop using Rom Manager to flash things with
I wiped everything and I used Cualkin (sp) Wipe. Now I can't even get into the bootloader to see my SD card. The screen (hboot) is just saying Fastboot , Recovery, Clear Storage, Simlock, HBoot USB. I go to recovery and all I get is the white HTC loading screen. I know it's not bricked. I don't know what to do next. :/
I did the same thing.. Let me see if I can find what I used to UN-BONE it..

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH....
I just flashed the new radio (12.62.60.27_26.13.04.19).. and not my phone is stuck on the boot screen.. few seconds after it started, it just vibrates and stays there...
I tried the other radios like the stock panache radio, but still stuck on the boot screen.. same thing, few secs and it vibrates and just stays there...
I can get into HBoot and Recovery and thats all

well that's good.
just go into recovery, wipe all data, and try reflashing a rom OR reflashing a nandroid backup.

H,
Thought you might have some insight into this
The problem I have is it only shows the splash screen (stock splash is green "myTouch 4G" on white background) when
starting the phone.
Before this happened I had rooted the phone and updated the ROM and was putting some patches on the phone, Recovery shows
info as s-off.
To do a recovery I downloaded the stock ROM from a link here at XDA
(PD15IMG_Glacier_TMOUS_1.17.531.2_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155771_signed.zip I also did a hash check and it downloaded fine no corruption) renamed image with the exact name PD15IMG.ZIP (made sure it was not a
PD15IMG.ZIP.zip) and copied it into an empty 1 gig SD memory.
I re booted, did a factory reset x 2 after going to boot-loader, that did not help so I inserted the SD card with only
the PD15IMG.ZIP image in it and rebooted to recovery, but recovery does not ask me anything when it looks for the
PD15IMG.ZIP it says no image or wrong image (it also looks for PD15DIAG.ZIP, PD15IMG.nbh, and PD15IMG.zip same
message) and puts me back into recovery.
Any Ideas on what I should do ?????
Thanks

You shouldnt be going into recovery to try and flash the pd15img.zip. You have to go into hboot and wait for it to prompt you to do it.

^ what he said , those pd15img's should only be flashed in hboot , if it doesnt work then flash a reliable rom in recovery like cyanogenmod , if it continues to give you a splash screen , you MIGHT , have a failed emmc , theres always a chance , it happened to my G2 , it just randomly pooped out on me.
