rooting using WillJits video - HTC EVO 3D

and i always have same issue all the time, my computer cannot recognize my device. i haven't even gotten started yet and im at the point were i put my usb debug on and run rev.exe to get my serial key but it keeps saying waiting for device. and when i plug my phone in my computer it recognizes it but nothing happens with rev.exe.
any ideas?

ok nvm i figured it out, had to un install pda net
and now im s off and have clockwork but SU zip is aborting. is there a newer zip file i should be using. im using the one from revo.io website

I couldn't get the Su zip to flash either, so I downloaded..
Superuser (by chains)
Busybox
Busybox installer
...from the market...installed and ran them all, rebooted (not sure if reboot was necessary, but figured wth) and good as gold

Thanks Vin.
i ended up using Teamwin instead of cwm and now im good to go. Team wins recovery is pretty badass man, i love it. even Amon is a fan and hes the king of Recovery

[Q] Cant get Vibrant into Clockwork recovery

I am a noob and cant get into clockwork recovery. First off I have updated to Official Froyo through Kies. I rooted through superonclick, downloaded titanium, got busybox off market and then it updated through titanium. Backed up apps and system data. Downloaded Rom manager it says i have clockwork 2.5.1.2. When i click to reboot into recovery and click reinstall packages it says
"E: failed to varifywhole-file signature"
"E:signature verification failed"
Installation aborted.
Please help i am so frustrated with this froyo and want Axura rom on my phone.
What am i doing wrong? Thanks in advance

Yea, in the link in my previous post is where i got the idea from. After some more reading I found post that said there wasn't enough room in the system folder. It actually said to delete slacker and amazon mp3, but just deleting slacker worked for me. After that rerun the e3 recovery via computer as stated here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423). When phone restarts you may have to go to rom manager and click into reboot into recovery again (maybe twice) but then you should see the green clockwork recovery screen. Also don't forget to back up apps with titanium first
let me know it it works.
whats up ou8, i read the link you sent, but i was lost on how to run "script " am sorry am a bit of a noob on all this but am a quick learner and i been reading tons of these forums but they sometimes leave me lost cause they have alot of different ways to do these things. Do i have to download something to run Script ?
Im definatley new to this stuff also..since Thursday...but anyways...once you plug ur phone into pc, with debugging clicked, open the zip file on ur pc and follow the instructions. It will run automatically, it may not take the first time just follow the recommended option. That's what I did and it worked great. Good luck

When in blue recovery, select "reinstall packages" ... then try to boot into clockwork recovery again... might take a couple of tries but that worked for me

This is what i did. I DL 3e recovery. Im opened it up on my pc, and the phone is plugged in with debugging.

Recovery Issues

I installed CM7 Alpha last night. I then tried to install Gapps and it got stuck at the white "HTC" bootup screen. I pulled the battery and then tried to install a backup and go back to my old rom, but same thing happened. Kept getting stuck at that same white screen.
So then I try to install TWRP. Even after renaming(PG86IMG) and installing it into the root of the SD card directory, Fastboot doesn't detect it.
It keeps saying "no image or wrong image". Any ideas? I've been trying to figure out ADB as a last resort but it's a bit over my head with that.

Are you S-OFF or just HTC unlocked? Also, how did you root? Also, I know this one is crazy, but did you have .zip at the end of PG86IMG?

I'm S-OFF still. I used revolutionary the first day it came out. I didn't have ".zip" at the end of the PG86IMG either, cause i knew it may be redundant on windows.
I've flashed a ton of sense roms with no issues, so it's kind of worrying me now that I can't figure out how to fix this.
I suspect rom manager has something to do with it. I had CWM as my recovery. While i'm in rom manager, the device list doesn't show Evo 3D as an option, and because rom manager is a system app on cm7, I can't install an updated apk that I downloaded.
So your goal is to install twrp correct? You can just fastboot flash the .img fyi. Also, the PG zip you are flashing, can you check the file extension from your file explorer just to make sure. One more thing, did you zip the TWRP img yourself or download it from the thread?

Well my goal is to get any recovery installed...cause right now I'm stuck. I'd love to be able to install one of my nandroid backups, but it's not working at all. I've tried to fastboot install the img, but the same thing keeps popping up. It basically says to an effect that "no image or wrong image found" The zip i used was direct from the xda thread.
I think I may know how I messed up. I was looking again in rom manager yesterday and since it appears to be an older version, I clicked on Evo 4g as my device type(didn't pay attention..just saw Evo). Today I realized it since Evo 3D isn't even on the list. Could this be screwing up my phone?
Yes, ROM manager, if used incorrectly, can hose you, like any root app. What I said earlier about fastboot, I'll try again. You can use fastboot not hboot to "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" i'm almost positive that the code, i'm real tired though. Ilk check back tomorrow when my brain works. Unless someone else answers.

[Q] The black Screen is laughing at me!

Okay folks, I am at oss and need to know if I am just flat out screwed or if maybe, just
Maybe I might have a shot at storing my EVO 3d. I was running meanrom. Everything was running smoothly but I decided to give ViperROM a shot. So I d a wipe, rebooted into recovery and flashed ViperROM. Initially I thought everything had gone according to plan until I realized something was amiss when I attempted to start 4g. 4g wouldn't start. I did some looking into and came to tonclusion that because as far as I could tell because I had been running meanrom when I flashed viper the kernel no longer stock was not compatible with viper. So I started flash image GUI, found stockkernel.zip on my sd card and flashed or so I thought the stock kernel in hopes that after I did then the 4g would work on ViperROM. Well I was mistaken. When the phone rebooted, after the initial HTC screen rather than next seeing the ViperROM boot animation my screen went black. It remained there laughing at me till the phone automatically rebooted and then once again went to a darn black screen. It seems my phone is stuck in an endless loop. HTC screen, black scree reboot, HTC... Ect. I then booted into recovery wiped again and tried to then just reinstall meanrom. Well, according twrp recovery the installation went smoothly but after HTC screen, my phone goes straight to black screen. Ive tried various variations of reinstallations and nothing has worked so far. Am I stuck like this or is there something that can be done. Any pointers or suggestions would be more than appreciated

Your phone is alright and working , dont worry.
..............................................................................
I am assuming you are unlocked via htcdev.com .
Follow the steps:
Copy the img file of the recovery you are using to the fastboot/adb folder (folder which you have used to unlock the bootloader).
1.Now boot your phone in bootloader
2.Select Fastboot and connect to PC.(phone should say "fastboot-usb")
3.now open command prompt and navigate to your fastboot folder.
4.Type "fastboot boot <recovery name>.img". Your recovery should boot now.
5.Wipe everything , and install any ROM you want.
6.Then reboot your phone as normal and your problem should be solved.
7.If you get stuck at HTC screen or that black screen , just open the zip file of the ROM that you've just flashed and copy the boot.img file to your fastboot/adb folder > then boot your phone into bootloader > select fastboot > connect to PC > in command prompt type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" > then reboot.
Hope this helps........
Did you make a nand backup before you flashed vipers rom? Or do what he said ^^^^^^^
Did you look in the meanrom folder on ur SD card. Inside of there is the stock kernel. Second try to flash cleanROM and see if that helps. And if that doesn't work, look for the modifiedsuperwipe.zip. if all else fails..... I had the boot loop a while a go. All I did was flash the modifiedsuperwipe.zip and then flashed the ROM of choice and i was good to go. Hope this helps a lil
I'm stumped
So I did the modified wipe. I thought it was going to be smooth sailing well, I plugged in the phone and went to fast boot tried sending my phone a command line but it hangs on waiting for device. So now I'm stuck wondering wtf. No go on fastboot commands for now that is unless someone has an idea on that. Is there a way to perhaps browse root from recovery and transfer the boot image from my sd card to the folder in needs to. Go to? Or can I mount as a usb storage device and move the boot.img file to where it needs to go from the computer. I'm so desperate to fix this issue without surrendering to defeat and bringing it somewhere for someone else to do it. Hell I probably can't afford it if I have to. Whelp, if you have any thoughts I'm grateful. Thanks for the assistance thus far fellas. When bootloader loads it says I believe loading PG86DIAG.zip no image found if that means any more to any of you. I also tried reinstalling meanrom. I booted into recovery via hold power +. Volume up then choose recovery. Twrp loads. Choose meanrom zip flash image. According to twrp this goes down swell with not a problem but when I boot to system still I get the black screen. It mocks me still.
oh yes. Probably worth mentioning. Today I was working from a bit installation of windows. It was a pain on the as o get the adb drivers workingnet but finally found something called pdapal installed it and it got things squared away or so I thought on the windows drivers side of things. So in device manager there are no errors and it says the android device is working properly now alert symbols over the driver or anything but still can't get the phone to accept fastboot commands.

I've got twrp flashed fine. However my phone won't respond to commands while in fastboot from the command prompt. It says waiting for device and never responds. Is there a possibility that usb debugging is not working. Is there a way to the? this on from recovery if you needed. I'm not nt intimidated by advanced procedures Im an analyst programmer and am stuck doing super boring things most of the day. I can't believe I'm being thrown a curve ball like this.

could be the abd drivers are not on your pc for your phone the reason i said to get ext4 recovery is you can flash kernels now you still cant do that with twrp but with your phone plunged in, in fastboot go to my computer right click propertys go to hardware tab click device manager and look for a question mark that says android phone if it is their you need the drivers
hope i helped you out

Are you sure you are accessing fastboot from bootloader ? By your words, it seems like you are checking fast boot in settings> power
Does the bootloader say fastboot-usb? If not select it and press power.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Still Trying
Yeah, I'm definitely in fastboot through bootloader. Yes it says fastboot usb. I think despite the fact that it says drivers are installed properly in device manager there might still be some kind of driver issue. I'm away from home and don't have access to. My usual computers? I'm stuck on an installation of windows 7 64bit. Originally I was having issues getting the right drivers installed and so I installed pda net and that seemed to solve the issue in device manager but I'm still having issues. If there's some recovery I could flash which would allow me toove boot.img to the right path manually that might be a way I could solve this. Hell, I'll give anything a try. So that's where I am so far. Any advice on what I might be doing wrong or where I might go from here?
hboot 1.5 s-on
I've got the same specs as you save the rom and kernel. @ itzloltraim.
I did try flashing clockwork mod using rom manager before my phone started having issues but even though rom manager said it flashed when I booted to recovery next twrp was still there. Is there somewhere I can download a flashable zip from? I couldn't find one last time I looked. From what I remember the Dev Site Links to rommanager to get it. If you have a link that would be a help.

That plus what is he doing rooting or trying to flash a recovery?
Yea, I have the same problem...
I was running MeanROM4.1 with the dodava kernel. Being an idiot I flashed the new Anthrax kernel and now my phone gives me a black screen. When the phone starts up, theres no lock ring. Ive been trying to flash another kernel but i dont seem to be doing it properly. im using 4ext as recovery.
Im currently performing a Superwipe then factory reset. Ill reply with my findings. Good thing I backed up at MeanROM3.91, but if I cant get my screen to work...shall I assume bricked?
**problem solved. I flashed a kernel using the fastboot method. Someone posted it and it worked fine for me.**

Majorly Effed Up.. Need Help Please

Yesterday I was running Viper's ROM and it worked flawlessly. A friend added some ROM manager on my phone, and it's been screwed up ever since. I tried flashing to a new ROM, no realizing it was Clockwork recovery. I was able to get Scott ROM to somewhat boot but it restarts randomly.
Viper ROM says to make sure you don't use Clockwork recovery. How can I ensure that is no longer on my phone? Secondly, with S-ON can I get Armona or another recovery tool?
Help.. what can I do to get the phone back to normal?
Greatly appreciate any help to restore my phone back.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think you can flash amon ra through bootloader and reinstall ROM from there.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using xda premium
get the RA 3.15 recovery image file. rename to recovery.img and move it to where fastboot is on your PC assuming you have the sdk/tools/drivers configured like you would for using adb. reboot to bootloader for fastboot-usb when your usb cord is plugged in. the command is "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" without the quotes and you'll be back in business

Fastboot flash this to get amonra recovery back. Make sure you WIPE before you set up your next rom for no issues
At work they shut off the ability to charge via USB. Found an alt source.

Want to make sure have the steps right.
Have a macbook, does this need to be done on a pc?
In recovery mount USB.
Put the file on the root (not in a folder)
Get to the fastboot menu and execute.
Please correct
Not sure if you need it or not, but I have a zip file that contains AmonRa 3.15. You can install it as a PH98IMG in bootloader. It is what I use to re-install AmonRa when needed. Apparently, I do not have enough posts to attach it so PM me your e-mail address if you would like me to send it to you.
pmgreen, it looks like Roman and the guys above took good care of you already but if you're still having problems I would be glad to do a remote session and help you get it straightened out.

CharliesTheMan, thanks for the offer I greatly appreciate it. Thought the battery issue was resolved, but now it doesn't want to turn back on
Friend meant well, but lesson learned.
Will definitely take you up on the generous offer if there isn't success.
I took the file from Roman but got the following error: main version is older update fail rezound
On a MAC I tried to fastboot using the recovery file, but getting an error "Waiting on device to respond"
Silly question, I used the MAC to root a Nexus 7 and used a different PC for the rezound
Do you need to use the same computer to ABD?
Good news, I'm up and running. Flashed SetMainVersionLOW.zip then the recovery from Roman.
When I go into recovery no longer see that hat.
Thanks so much for your help.. really appreciate it and hope I help out some time too
Glad to hear that you are back up and running!

[Q] Upgrade to CM10.1...strange adb issue

I have this old Galaxy SGH-T959, which I'd like to get on CM10.1. I started out with a phone facory reset (it's on 2.2) and then followed the instructions on the CM site: First I pushed CWMR using Heimdall, which worked ok (I can get into CWM recvovery), but after that the phone seems to be soft-bricked (hangs after the splash screen when doing a regular rebooot). No big deal I thought, since I just need to get a ROM on there. I went through some troubles with installing USB drivers (eventually, I installed Kies and the drivers that came with it made it show up properly in the device manager). Now I just wanted to push my ROM zip via adb. So "adb devices" (after adb kill-server, adb start-server) shows the phone as 'T959xxxxx recovery'. So far so good. But now when I issue a push command (or any other adb command like shell or remount), there is just a blinking cursor and nothing else happens. Any idea wha's the problem?

try a pc they are a lot easier to work with with android.
If you are on a pc then try odin... I usually understood heimdall as a mac alternative to odin or just an alternative to odin, odin is made directly by samsung so its gotta be quality stuff. vibrants do have bad ports too, i have two of them and both wont connect to the computer anymore and one doesn't even charge so try putting the rom on an external microsd card and throwing it in it then flash that through recovery, but if you are going to jelly bean usually you install cm7 first then cm10.1... not sure what guide you are using, a link would be nice, maybe a problem could be found there. theres a thread about the whole cm7 read post 2 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43706442#post43706442 haha thats me i had a similar problem
Thanks for the reply.
I am on a PC. The guide I was working off is here: [apparently as a newbie I'm not allowed to post links]
I tried ODIN to push the ROM, but ODIN accepts only tar files etc. and not the CM zip files (at least I didn't find any CM tar's). I also tried putting the ROM on the external sd card, but that was non-starter as well. CWMR would not find the external SD and any attempt to mount it failed.
Find tar versions. I'm not sure how to convert it but if you can't find one just ask and I'm sure somebody with some spare time will put one together for ya

Pipetman, I have the same exact issue now. Can you provide a link to the tar file and to ODIN. I am new to all this stuff.
Thank you
