Did you bother to do any searching??? Root using unrevoked and it installs clockworkmod. but its too late for you as shown above.

thats y i put on it that its unrooted with 2.2 i know i cant root it yet cos unrevoked havnt done owt yet to get the 2.2 rooted
If you could put Clockworkmod on an unrooted device, I would believe that then, the entire concept of rooting the phone is useless, without any meaning being served.

when i try to use visionary perm root, it F**ed up my phone...
i get the visionary temp root loops
Tired rage method it didnt work either.
i searched up no real solution there.
(someone said i need to downgrade, but i have S-OFF and cant not get temp root, so its a no go for me)
G2 got OTA already and i can boot .. just cant root!
can someone help my friend please.
Do you have super user installed? And what exactly does visionary do when u try and root it?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
no super user installed
visionary just keep saying rooting please wait or something like that, sometime it just exist itself out and no temp root, sometimes it will stay at that rooting screen for hours, sometimes it went to a black screen which i have to take the battery out.
tried factory reset in fastboot, no luck either.
only thing i have there is S-OFF...
note : i can temp root before i tried to perm root with visinoary r14
Look at your running apps (in the manage application menu) kill everything that isn't stock. I was having the same problem, and when most people weren't complaining, thought an app of mine might be causing a conflict. And it worked for me, so try it out.

so you have S off now? Can you get to recovery? If so download and flash a rocovery image like clockwork. After you get clockwork flashed just download and flash whatever ROM you want. They will all have root for you. If you cant get to recovery do a search for visionary boot loop fix. There was a whole post on the steps needed to fix it.

Do I det the file off my sd card. I have tryed with out det and it said I was already
Rooted?
are you still running stock rom? if so download rom manager from the market, install clockworkmod and flash a cutom rom. if its going to be a froyo (2.2) rom download and flash clockwork 3.0.0.5, if it's going to be a gingerbread rom (2.3) download 2.5.x.x or follow a guide to install 3.0.0.6. root doesn't play nice with stock rom that's why usually when you root you flash a custom rom fairly quickly afterwards.
Hope this helped
Nic
You can also get superuser off the market.

I assume you're using visionary to temp root and permanent root. if root doesn't stick the first time, keep hitting temp root and then permanent root in visionary. Try that. I can tell you brief step by step to get ultimate permanent root and sim unlock but you might go crazy just by reading lol.
Just go get superuser out of the market again. Then you will be able to su in terminal emulater again.

I just rooted my 2.2 vibrant! (came stock with 2.2) ! now im trying to flash clockworkmod but i get this error when i re-installl packages in the vibrant recovery screen.??
Can someone please show me a step by step on how to probprly make a 2.2 vibrant recongnize the clockwork recovery screen?!
You would have to ODIN to a ROM that comes with the 2E recover such as (eugenes froyo that doesnt brick) or a kernel that you can odin that has a modified 3E recovery that disables signature checking. Once you do that you can flash a kernel that has clockwork embeded into it such as overstock, tigers blood, voodoo, eugenes dead horse.
i think i need a step by step way too noob to understand what 3e and 2e is and what is ODIN i hear soo much about it! I bought the phone with 2.2 already on it so i havnt used ODIN at all to update my firmware!
Read the vibrant bible for about a week then try messing with your phone.

the bible specifically doesnt tell you everything but it links you to everything you need to know if you are still having trouble read the noob guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028
after youve read that then go through the stickies posted in the vibrant general section and make sure you know what you are doing.
Cheers

your easiest method to get CWM working (and i'm assuming your end goal is to flash a rom) is to odin BACK to JFD (the stock shipped 2.1 rom for the vibrant) and then flash your rom.
There is no other easier way to do it (especially since you're not really sure what odin is, so using the other method to replace the stock 3e recovery with a fixed 3e recovery requires SOME technical knowledge of mounting partitions and getting root using superoneclick).
I sEE its starting to make sense now! After i switch back toJFD using ODIN will i have to re root my phone or does it stay rooted?

if you're end goal is to flash a rom, and you've already used CWM before using the update.zip method, unless you've deleted the update.zip from your sdcard, there is no need to root when using 2e recover (the stock 2.1 recovery) to get CWM working. You will have to manually boot up the phone into recovery (using vol+ and vol- and power) and then reinstall packages.
Thanks alot i appreciate the help! Ill try this after work and report back if i had any more issues.
ODIN a stock+voodoo kernel, reboot to recovery, flash a rom with cwm

If you're entire goal is to get root in order to flash a Rom, why go through all the trouble (which by the confusion your having, there will be) just to flash a custom Rom?
The easiest way is to odin jfd to your phone. Then put the cwm update.zip on your internal sd card as well as your Rom of choice and flash that way.
The way that you're currently wanting to do requires you to get at the very least temp root, mount /system as rw, the copy over a modified recovery file, all assuming you don't run into errors about having enough free space on /system.
Now, which way seems easier?

Wouldnt it be ezr to download the recovery 3e.zip to your download file on phone directly from the internet, then copy the zip file and move to the appropriate file on phone useing a file manager ..then just robooting to recovery reonstallingand completly avoiding a computer
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Well, you have to have root first. To get rust on your 2.2 rom requires a computer and there's also the fact that you may not even have enough room on your /system partition. If it were easier, the easier method would have been told to you within the first 3 posts.

i give up...
this is what help me and it worked http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423
the info below is on page 12 on the above link F.Y.I
1. get superoneclick root application (its on the forums just search for it.)
2. plug phone into computer then open superoneclick application
3. click on shell root (i used psneuter method) in the application and let it do its thing
4. Once you get a message that you have shell root, download the 3e recovery from OP and unzip to desktop. (DO NOT restart phone!!!)
5. run the .BAT file in the unzipped folder.
6. go through the steps and choose to restart when done (it will show as recommended)
You are now done!
Let me know how it goes
my phone rebooted the other day back into stock 2.3.4 grj22
now im trying to find root access again but i cant.
the phone is unlocked but it will not let me run flash clockwork or even flash super user.....
has this happened to anyone or can anyone tell me how to root it again please
thanks
I believe this happened to me also, had used 1 click root. Didn't do it right the 1st time. Second time it stuck. Long story short, try using the root method you used to to root again. If that doesn't work check out 1 click root, make sure you read up on it. Its pretty much automated , but a user like myself might be dislexic and mess it up . Make any backups nessesary before hand.

Hey Guys,
So im in a bit of a peculiar situation here, I downgraded my device from Gingerbread to 2.2.1 following the wiki (kudos to whoever did that, thanks a lot!). However, when I got to 2.2.1, it now only mounts my SD card as read only? I have ordered another one to see whether i just got a crappy sd card (Tmo refused to replace it under warranty)... However, I have pushed Visionary and Gfree, in preparation to root this sucker, and have my way with it...but heres the caveat, is that now, when I try to boot into recovery, I get that stinking little phone with a red triangle on it...what does this mean?
Regards
Trevor
That means you don't have a custom recovery installed
Download Rom manager from the market and install the clockworkmod recovery
Edit: until you root the phone my post is useless the custom recovery is for after you root the phone
If you need help rooting the phone mackster248 has a great 2 part video showing you how to root the MT4G on YouTube

right, so if i am still able to root my thing using gfree then flash custom recovery? So...im not hosed yet?

PS, is there an way to reformat an sd card through ADB, i think it may be read only because of some corrupt sectors, and would like to try to reformat it...does the fdisk utility do this?
