I used unrevoked 3 to root my incredible, however i didn't have my memory card in the phone. First I ran the clockwork recovery install that updated the driver and installed clockwork with no memory card, and then I installed unrevoked with no memory card.
My problems now:
I can't access the boot menu while starting the phone.
Is there a way to restore the phone to it's complete orignial state before unlock?
Can I download the needed information on to my sd card to fix the problems?

Been having a score of problems getting this to work ( formatting the SD card ) but managed to do it successfully using this method
http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-manually-partition-your-sd-card-for-android-apps2sd/
Now I had a problem with my card after succeeding, and it occured to me that now all my apps are on the card, if the card malfunctions, I'm then left with no apps on my phone. NOT GOOD.
So my questions are:
Is there a reverse proccess that allows you to copy the apps back to the phone?
And is there a way to create an identical clone of my sd card, so at least I have a backup to use?
Thanks all
I'm running the latest Modaco ROM, and use only a MAC as home computer.
Currently running Liberated 2.2 on HTC Aria. I am using the 2 gig SD card that came with the phone.
I read that this ROM automatically installs many of the default and downloaded apps to the SD card which is why the option to move to SD card is grayed out in the Applications menu. Several of the google apps downloaded directly to the SD card, and several of the other apps I downloaded gave me an option to move them to the SD card (after installing them), in the applications menu.
So then, is it as easy as backing up my data in Nandroid, copying the files to a PC folder via USB, ejecting the old card, installing the new card, copying the files back from the PC folder and doing a Nandroid restore?
The old card has a 512 meg ext2 partition on it that I think was created automatically by Liberated FR006 when I first flashed it. Will Liberated automatically create an ext2 on this card when I mount it?
Do I need to perform a format card function in Clockwork Mod first?
Please advise! And as always, thanks in advance for your help!

Well since I didn't get any answers, I just jumped in and did it! Here's how:
1. Move all apps to the phone reboot into recovery.
2. Run a Nandroid backup
3. Restart the phone, USB connect to PC and copy SD card contents to PC folder
Disconnect USB when done.
4. Go to SD card/Phone Memory and eject card.
5. With phone still running, take out the old card and insert the new card.
6. Create ext2 partition with ROM Manager or other viable means
7. Connect using USB, copy contents of PC folder back to new SD card.
8. Reboot phone into recovery menu.
9. Perform Nandroid restore.
Maybe the file copy to the PC followed by a Nandroid restore is redundant, but that is how I did it, and it worked.
How do I know if I got my sd card partitioned?
I installed a new 8gb card. I tried to use the method you described here. When I tell ROMManager to partition the card (512MB EXT and 64MB swap size) it reboots and very briefly what looks like a box or package pops up on the screen and then it just displays a white triangle with a yellow exclamation sign and a green android beside it. I have to remove the battery and reboot the phone.
What is happening or what am I doing wrong?
the phone will boot up ok and when I look at SD card and Memory in Settings it says 6.85GB avail and 6.85GB free.
I think I got it! in rom manager I flash clockworkmod and then it the format the partition thing to take place
I recently rooted my tab 2 and installed cyanogen mod, rom toolbox pro, titanium backup pro, link2sd, lucky patch...ect
My question is: is there a way to partition my external sd card using my tablet alone and not requiring a pc to do the partitioning? I don't own a pc or have easy access to one. I have tried partitioning via cwm recovery it says it partitioned the drive but when I reboot it didnt do anything.
I would like to install my apps on external sd card, I read that I had to make a ext 4 partition.
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Hello again everyone, I have a 4gig sd card that I use with my s2 i9100, but for some reason Philz touch CWM recovery doesn't detect it. Now this happened before and I just formatted it via the storage settings on the phone, I then successfully did a nandroid backup to it. A few days later I planned on installing cm, so in preparation for that i decided to test out that backup just in case. But now the Sd card doesn't show up when I press restore and I cant mount it
.
Things Iv tried:
formatting it via storage settings (what worked last time)
formatting it using windows
doing the above again but this time dragging the copy of the sd card I made prior to the first attempt at formatting onto it
Edit: now the backup on my internal sd has gone missing, really confused about this one)
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am not comfortable flashing without having a backup on the external sd
Feel free to move this to appropriate root forum.
I have a Rugby Pro handmedown that I'm trying to root. I was able to get CWR loaded thru Odin, launched recovery mode and attempted to load root from SD card. (yes the root.zip is on the card). However, there are error msgs that the card cannot mount and I am unable to access anything on the card in recovery mode. I am thinking that it is because the card is encrypted (due to a IT security requirement of my job). Thus, recovery mode does not allow the card to decrypt to be mounted or read.
I took out the SD card after it was decrypted and put it in external reader, but CWR does not have an option to load from external SD, only load from SD, which when selected does not do anything . I'm a little leary of sideloading the root.zip.
about a week ago I had flashed TWRP recovery and it wiped my phone. Had to flash the stock ATT to get it working again.
Any suggestions?
