I am having some serious issues with my evo. I have tried 10 different methods, googled 100 different help guides and still no fix.
I had originally rooted my phone using simple root and put the "fixed" froyo rom on there. Everything worked fine, but I was outdated and having some really slow issues so I wanted to try a new rom...Fresh.
Well I tried a few methods, but I somehow reverted my evo back to a nonroot of the original OS. Whenever i go into hboot, my recovery does not work. I push the PC36img and load it, then restart then I attempt to go to my recovery where it gives me the error picture with the yellow/red triangle. I then select recovery (after pressing UP volume and powerbutton) and try to load update from sd card. Everytime I do that I get a Failed error.
I've tried to reroot using several methods off this website, I've done everything I can to get it working but can't. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Try reflashing your recovery image.
BTW I have hboot 79.0 with S-ON, so it looks like I def became unrooted.

Not sure how it would have just unrooted itself. I would run an RUU from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060
Then, I would re-root and start clean again.

I pulled up this list of recovery files, is there a particular one I should use?

Ok I downloaded the top item:
RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.70.651.1_Radio_2.15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed
Ran the exe, surprisingly picked up my phone and started the image update. My phone restarted and it forced closed the app on my computer. Now I have a new HTC logo for about 5 min on my phone not doing anything. Should I wait it out or restart my phone?

I would have waited about ten minutes then restarted the phone. If the phone is stuck at the HTC logo, then I would go ahead and re-run the RUU.
Let me know how it turns out.

ok, finally got it working. Had to restart the phone manually and try it on a different computer. It updated it to the newer version of android and hboot, thank goodness! That was the easiest and most productive thing I've been able to do so far, thanks!
Well now I try to boot into recovery and get the same error:
can't open /cache/recovery/command
Then I get :
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
When i try to load update from sdcard

Ok, so, I think you said you got the RUU working which would have completely restored the phone to unrooted and stock from factory.
Now, you need to re-root your phone using one of the methods on xda. I used the manual method here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045. However, many people have had success with the one-click methods.
After you re-root (which will likely included installing a recovery), select a rom you want to try, boot to recovery, wipe and flash it. A great starter ROM is MikFroyo 4.6 or 4.5.
Try downloading the PC36IMG.zip from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026
put that on the root of your SD card, then boot into HBOOT and it should find that PC36IMG.zip after a few seconds and ask if you want to flash it. Choose yes and let it finish. Should then be able to reboot into recovery.
ok thanks, i'll try it when I get back home

Ok, I tried this method...the filesize of pc36img.zip is only 3.5mb, but it didn't seem to work. It scanned the file then just went back to the hboot screen with my options never asking to flash.
I'm going to try to reroot using the other method now...
So I clicked the link and he forwarded to the autoroot.bat page so I used his method. It worked well (the 2nd time around) all the way until it started to push amon_ra_1.8-mod.... then after that it says rebooting into the bootloader, and it reboots into it and just says waiting for phone...
It does appear that my phone is rooted now, but my recovery is still not working. If I use ROM manager will it work since my phone is rooted or do I need to have a rooted ROM to run it off of?

Does your phone show s-off while in the bootloader? If so you should be able to run the FlashZip script and use that to flash the pc36img-sprintlovers zip. That one contains everything needed to bring your phone up to date and will leave you with a rooted rom and recovery.

FINALLY! Thanks a million! My recovery is now working and it installed the built in sprinter lovers rom, I guess the anti-virus was stopping it so I disabled it and ran the flash script. I was able to install Fresh on there, just to try it out. I do have a few questions though:
1. I noticed after going through many pages that to update to a newer ROM version you don't always have to wipe clean, you can just install (or flash) the new update? I noticed in Fresh there is a built in app that does that. Is this true for most ROMS or only certain ones?
2. I assume I am using the RA recovery. I noticed the backup/restore feature on there. What exactly does that backup and when should I use it?
3. I've noticed I've been very low with memory on my phone (not SD card), I have about 258MB free. How can I clear space and when I mount my phone what files are important to keep and can I get rid of, is it okay to get rid of my rom.zip's and radio.zip's?
Thanks again to everyone, autoroot was def the most painless root ever.

1) You'll want to always wipe your cache/dalvik (I do everytime I'm in the recovery) but the Data depends on the ROM. Usually if you are going from one sense rom to another you are ok and the same for AOSP to AOSP. Going from Sense to AOSP you'll need to wipe data though.
2) Autoroot comes with a modified version of AmonRA, they are mostly just speed tweaks. To make a complete backup of your ROM select Boot (kernel), System (ROM), Data (Apps & Settings) and .android (apps on SD card)
3) You can delete the zips from your sd card if you don't need them but that's about normal for free memory.
Hi
I got Nexus S that currently is bricked for a couple of month now :-(....
the phone is I9020T (US phone).
I have a recovery image "recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo.img"
But i cannot access the SDCARD whats so ever ..... to put the ROM, i also tried with ODIN in the past ( now i dont rememer...) and it fail as well it seems that when trying to flash the system it got stuck.
The current status of the phone is:
1.It can be boot into boootloader.
2.it can be boot into fastboot.
3.It can be boot into download mode.
But thats it... , when i try to power it regular it just stop in the blackscreen with Google name on it and the lock at the down and stop there.
What can i do ?
Thanks in advance.
Assuming you can get adb to work you should be able to flash the image to the phone straight from a pc. However that's the most help I can offer as I rarely use adb.
Actually just found this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Nexus_S:_Full_Update_Guide
Read it and modify to your needs, NOTE the part "Installing the ClockworkMod Recovery Image" as I think you could follow that but use your stock image instead.

Try to lock and unlock your boot loader via adb. Maybe try flashing original stock rom. The nexus s is hard to brick. I thought I bricked mine but turned out to be a hardware issue that was fixed by Samsung under my warranty.

I cannot mount the USB at all I cannot flash it via ODIN ..
Am I missing somthing ??
Do you have the right drivers installed? Also, is it the right recovery? Like for the i9020t, not the nexus s 4g (I made that mistake, me stupid! )

He means to reboot into bootloader (not recovery), then lock the bootloader with "fastboot oem lock", then re-unlock it with "fastboot oem unlock".
There's sticky threads all over the boards with stock roms, radios, and bootloaders.
Sounds like a bad flash storage. It happens often on these phones. Nothing you can do but to send it to Samsung for warranty. They'll do it free of charge.
Unless you're missing something simple...
I tried Samsung without luck....

But my phone is already out of order for a few month and i got it from over seas and i tried to contact Samsung (UK). but they didn't want to assist.

Personally, I'd try reflashing the recovery as a first step. re-download it from cwm just in case of some weird corruption or something, grab the latest one and double or triple check whether you get the right one for your phone
Flash it, using fastboot, straight from the PC to the phone. Try the recovery again, see if that helps. If you still can't mount anything then, you've definitely got a hardware problem :/
If it does mount, use adb to push over a fresh ROM or a stock ROM and flash it after a full wipe (/system, /data, /cache, /boot and a factory reset)..
Good luck!
Been there try that ...

When my phone did this I was able to mount it after a few battery pulls. So try doing the procedure to mount USB storage and if it fails pull the battery again. I'd say give it about 100 tries. If it doesn't work it most likely will never mount. However if at one point it will, load and flash a rom. The only problem you will face is again after rebooting you'll have to keep trying to the same way to get pass the Google logo.
I know it sounds strange but this was my situation and that's how I got by until they replaced the unit for me.

Yes there's a fix in there towards the bottom of the first post.
If you want to flash another recovery, turn your device on into recovery, connect it to your computer and use adb to push the file to your internal storage.
It should be something like "adb push filename.zip /data/media" then you can use the borked recovery you're on to flash the one you pushed.

His problem is with it getting stuck in recovery, which is a known issue with Koush's 5.5.0.4, simple fix with adb. No need to reflash the whole rom.

I seem to have messed up the process. I successfully unlocked and rooted my Nexus 7 but during wipe process using JROM flasher something didn't go right and now I'm stuck at the google logo screen forever. I can boot into fast recovery mode but that's about it. I can't do anything.
I've had this done before on my nexus phone but it seems I managed to f it up this time.
I thought I had a rom zip file copied on to the Nexus 7 but it doesn't show in the menu. Now I'm stuck at the logo screen not having access to any roms to install. How do I reset all of this to factory? I've already checked most of the threads regarding this and haven't been able to find a solution yet.

before you do anything, use your recovery to see if the rom zip is located in /data/media/0/. if its there, flash it from that location.
Are you able to boot into recovery?
If yes, it could be as simple as plugging your tablet into the computer and mounting the usb, drag and drop the rom, and flash it without using a toolkit (only recovery). I'm not familiar with jrom flasher, but i will say the more variables there are, the more chance of a problem.
If no, you're best off running the stock factory image through your computer, found here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#nakasi. I had your problem at one point, and could not even boot into recovery. After trying to install cwm through adb (which failed), and a number of toolkits, the factory image was what brought my nexus back to life.
I remember reading that sometimes a wipe can delete your recovery as well as your system (and whatever else you have on your n7), although i dont know if that was ever fixed, as i got my tab replaced a month or two ago and havent rooted it again yet. There was some type of command or .zip or something that should be used to keep recovery after wipes. When i expirienced problems such as yours, it was also from a bad wipe from a toolkit. Using just the recovery afterwards, i never expirienced any issues, even without the recovery fix.
I would definitely try simms suggestion first if you can access recovery. If that fails, try one of the above processes.
PS, even if you can access recovery, if at this point you just want to go completely stock, the factory image will work regardless.
cheers
Thanks for the help guys, I've been struggling for the past 3~4 hours but I found a solution.

I panicked and probably did something quite stupid...
So I tried to flash the new cyanogenmod rom to have a taste of kit kat, but then I had the status 7 error.
This never occurred to me before, I didn't keep a backup to fall back onto... ( yes, I am an idiot, I learned my lesson, the hard way)
Than the device won't boot, it shows the Google logo twice, and then goes into the clockwork mod, where you choose to flash roms
and I am stuck.
I tried Nexus Root Toolkit, doesn't help because my device is not booting up, no way can it install the drivers properly...
and I think I did something more ingenious... I just tried anything on the Toolkit, and I got my rooted Nexus 7 locked...
But it's still the same, I am stuck at the clockwork mod thing just as before... Wiped whatever I can. and even formatted the sdcard and system...
Some Android Wizard out there... Please help...
If at boot you go to recovery directly... You have had to flash new version of recovery in wrong partition. You must flash it last version of recovery with "fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.IMG" (see 'recovery' as partition to flash). Then flash boot and system partitions from factory image (in XDA have you multiples threads about it) if you want to keep your data. If not, flash factory image from usual ways (this wipes your data) and then flash recovery like I say above.
After that, try to flash CM again.
PS: I recommend TWRP instead of CWM.

but its more serious than that... My computer doesnt recognize the tablet because of some driver issues... I am not sure, at this moment, whether the USB debugging thing still works

I cant flash anything, I cant transfer files from the PC to tablet....

Im in a similar boat. I bricked my tablet while trying to force an update. It wouldnt autoupdate (there was always an error about cant find zip file...) so I tied to install it with Skipsoft program. After 20 minutes i realize my computer has frozen....So I waited 2 hours and nada. So I had to reboot my desk top. At that time my tablet is now bricked....what do we do?
