ITS DONE AND DUSTED , I USED THE LINUX LIVE CD AND IT HAS WORKED.
Im tring to root my wildfire with unrevoked3 but it just says "pushing recovery image" and has been like that for 10mins, how long should it take?
Also before trying this I tried to install clockwork recovery with Rom manger only for it to reboot into recovery and quickly install maybe 25% then show a phone with a big red question mark then it reboots.
Also if I try to boot into recovery manualy I get a phone with a red triangle and a ! in it.
How can I fix the recovery?
in rom manager it says current recovery: clockwork mod 2.5.0.1
latest recovery: clockwork mod 2.5.0.1
Really need help , I want to jailbreak my ps3 , will donate if a DEV helps me.

Have moved all files and folders to another computer , have ran unrevoked where it booted in to bootloader where I had to manually select reboot bootloader then it said waiting for HBOOT to work (or something like that) but then nothing.
What next?

What is the best way to root the EVO
Toast is the best method.

Does everything works with Toast's root method?
Considering Toast's method is the only way to load custom ROMs I think his is the clear winner.
I started off with Unrevoked's and it was great for things like Titanium backup, but I decided to follow Toast's guide and it was really pretty simple.

I cant use the adb with the evo, no matter what i do windows dont find the drivers.
If i root with toast method, do i need to flash a custom rom? does everything works on yours?
For the drivers you have to goto the htc sync folder on your sd card and install the htc sync program.

You can't flash custom ROMs with unrEVOked. Instant fail. I also like having my ROM actually rooted, and not just reliant on some other app.

The poll should read what is the best way not what did you use. It is misleading.
Toasts root is the best because of the recovery. That is needed for custom ROMs, nand backups, and a host of underthings.
A lot of people used unrevoked because it was easy and are new to android so they don't know the difference yet at least.
Toast method ftw! Been following his work since the hero. What's the point of rooting if you can't flash custom roms???

Did you format your sd card? you can just download it from htc. goto the evo support section at htc.com and it is in the download section.

I hope this isn't insulting but just to cover all the bases, you have USB Debugging turned on, right?
I had a Hero before this so I didn't have to mess with drivers and cannot remember exactly how difficult it was with the Hero. What Operating System do you have? You can easily find adb drivers by Googling.

Don't worry about it, you'll be flashing a ROM over it. I was using unrevoked before I did Toast's method and it went fine.
Did you flash back to the .1 shipped software (upgrade was the .6)?
Go toast! though unrevoked is nice for those who don't want to tinker too much with the phone but want root
Unrevoked by far. Very clean and simple.
To reverse it? takes 20 seconds..
The REAL winner is who gets r/w access. THATS a rooted phone in my opinion.
flashing custom roms is awesome, but what good is it if you can't r/w the system. pfft.
I have faith that all the devs working on r/w access will pull through. Your work is so very appreciated!

With toasts you have r/w access once you go into the recovery mode...

Hello,
So i installed Clock Work ROM manager, and it tells me the recovery has successfully installed, but i cannot access it. It just goes to the stock recovery. I have a stock ROM Aria that has been rooted.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

how are you booting into recovery? make sure that the phone is not plugged in via usb. also try booting into recovery from within rom manager.
So re-rooting with this method should get it to where i need it? The method i used was one of the first when the phone was new.

acquire S-off and root on your mytouch 4g first, then download and install ROM Manager from the market, and install clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.0 from there.

In what process did you brick your phone? the only time you can brick you phone would be when you're flashing the RUU. or doing anything to the bootloader.
1. set up ADB (its a program on the computer) it's simple, you just install it.
2. make sure your computer detects your phone (charging + usb debugging modes)
- you can check by typing "adb devices" in the command prompt when you're in your adb-sdk folder or whatever you name it.
3. download all the downgrading zips, extract them all to where you installed ADB mine is C:\SDK\platform-tools\
4. open command prompt and go to whereever you installed ADB and check to see if your device is connected "adb devices"
5. punch in all those commands in the guide. It's all very detailed. It's all straightforward. There are a lot words and stuff but just follow the directions religiously.
It shouldn't take anymore than 30 mins to set up and everything.
If you already have ADB installed, and the dled files. you could easily finished everything in 5-10mins.
did a quick Google search....

Boot into the bootloader.
If its hboot 2.10 you need the unrevoked drivers, if 2.16 you need the revolutionary drivers.
unrevoked drivers > unrevoked.com
revolutionary drivers> revolutionary.io
if all else fails try this:
open Task Manager>Processes and look for something like "HTCUPCTloader.exe" and end that process. try your usb afterwards.
i couldnt believe when it actually worked, but it did
