You lost me there, searching with your Build Number will reveal multiple threads with step-by-step instructions to root/flash the phone.
I had the same firmware on my Hero when I got it, but I followed this walk-through:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4655885&postcount=1
Only part I had issues with was getting the RA-HERO recovery image flashed. I dragged it onto my sd card (not in a folder) and typed in this location on the FlashRec app:
/sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img
and then was able to hit "Flash Recovery Image". Then load a ROM on the SD card, turn phone off, and hold Home+Power to turn it back on in the recovery menu and then you can flash away.
I tried the post that you gave me, it still not working
when I try to wipe it, it said wipe aborted
when I try to install the rom, it said installation aborted

Well, that guide does work for a phone with that Build Number, I have done it, and srt4mn has also. Follow it step by step... And post where you have a problem
I tried that, when I flash the recovery image it said : flash FAILED: Could not run command....
but I download the recover image already, and put it at the root of the sdcard,and type
/sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img
I dunno which step go wrong.
Frist I download Fleashrec, recovery img, and the update.zip,
put them at the root of sdcard,
install Flashrec,
type /sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO.v1.2.2.img
flash recovery, but it doesnt work><

Did you backup your original recovery image first via flashrec (the lower of the 2 buttons)?? May be you can try to flash it via ADB:
Put the recovery.img in sdk/tools
Then in the terminal type this:
adb shell reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.3.img
adb shell mount /sdcard
adb push recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.3.img /sdcard/recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.img
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.3.img
adb shell reboot
Try this and see whether it helps.
Fastboot will not work this way...
I'm confused now, what is ADB???
any instruction???
thank you for helping><!!
Can any one help me on this??
on can I just add the android market and make it work on this version???
i have had problems with Rom manager not flashing recovery correct leaving me with no recovery. so i had to manually flash recovery following these steps exact. I have personally bricked 2 ERIS phones lucky me.The first i thoought it was just something i did, lucky i had another to replace it...(the second BRICK eris).
So here is a solution to keep from having a BRICK
USE Amon RA's Recovery PERIOD.

1. download flash_image Here Updated Link 3/17/10
2. Open the terminal and copy and paste the following commands.
adb shell [hit enter]
su [hit enter]
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system [hit enter]
3. In a new terminal window (don't close the original one).
adb push flash_image /system/bin [hit enter]
exit [hit enter]
4. Now in the original terminal window
chmod 755 /system/bin/flash_image [hit enter]
5. Now exit all termainl windows and reboot your phone.
6. Download
Amon_RA's recovery Here.
7. Mount your phones sd card and drop recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img on to it and eject
your phone.
8. Open the Terminal and copy and paste the following commands with the phone connected
to your computer.
8. adb shell [hit enter]
9. su [hit enter]
10. flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img
11. To get into recovery turn off you phone and hold the Volume Up + Power until it boots into recovery.
That's it.
ROM Manager and Clockwork recovery does not work for the Eris.
ROM Manager and Clockwork recovery does not work for the Eris (as far as I know).
Edit: Oops, sorry for the double post.
I currently have the clockwork recovery installed on my eris, can I just download amon's recovery image and install it to switch to it? Or do I have to uninstall clockwork recovery and then install amon's?

try to flash it from rom manager,(under other recoveries) if Rom manager has worked for you with no problems. if it doesnt work follow instructions as listed in 1st post
I wouldn't use clockwork recovery, it messed up my installation to the point i couldn't flash any rom or restore any nand. When i would try to flash anything it would fail, It failed when i tried to use the root rom....After I tried flashing root rom i had a nice looking brick on my desk....(I even changed back to RA but Clockwork had messed up my phone so bad that RA didn't even work either....
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!!
Yeah, use Amon's. It does every job you need, and is 100% stable and reliable.

yea you beat me too it, , i only used it because i had it for my DROID and thought maybe devs would try to add it to the list on rom manager.
ok, obviously a bit of an amateur here, how do you know which recovery image you have, i installed amon's, but i'm not sure if clockwork made it to my phone somehow, thinking about unrooting soon, that's why i ask, thanks.

When you are doing this, are you in the correct directory? For example, my SDK is installed in /android , so first I would:
cd /android/tools
then
./adb shell
could someone help me with this. i really need to get the stock recovery image on my eris and im alittle noobie at this stuff. if any one could help id be sooooo happy
I'm not sure how to flash amons on a mac. I know for windows you put the recovery.img in the sdk tools folder, boot into fastboot and type
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
To get stock recovery (I assume you want your phone back to stock) then flash the official ruu. Will return your phone to 100% stock. You can find it on a sticky in the Eris general forums I believe.

I'm not sure on a mac, but on Windows you put the img in the tools folder of your sdk, boot into fastboot and type in adb:

I installed Amon Ra as part of the root for leakers instructions some time ago. -- Is there a new version out? (Search was surprisingly not helpful) And what is the best way to update recovery?

There is no new version out; the first version (v1.6.2) is the only one that Amon_RA published.
IF there was a new version, you could flash it by using adb with the existing Amon_RA. You don't even need to push a version of "flash_image" to the phone, because it is already in /sbin in Amon_RA recovery. Just get the recovery image to your SD card, start an interactive shell (adb shell), and then
flash_image recovery /sdcard/<wherever-you-put-it>/recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img
Yes, you can "flash a recovery partition by using the recovery" - because when you are interacting with it (the recovery boot), it lives entirely in a ramdisk.
The second easiest way is to have the engineering bootloader (1.49.2000 S-OFF) installed on your phone, and flash it with fastboot from the PC, as in
fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img
Note that neither of these two methods perform any integrity checks on the recovery image file that the normal "Flash .zip from sdcard" ROM installation method does. Therefore, it is imperative that someone using these methods is extremely diligent in cross-checking image MD5 signatures after it has been transferred to the SD card. Amon_RA also has the "md5sum" utility built into it's shell, BTW.
I mention this last point as a warning to newbs - they seem to routinely corrupt files when they transfer them to the SD card. (I suppose they are not using the "safely remove hardware" controls correctly, or they are getting truncated downloads).

if you want root all you gotta do is download amon ra 3.1.6 and flash it via fastboot....in that recovery you will see a developers option (advanced options) select that and inside it youll see install su & superuser...once you do that you are rooted bud
Yeah, the toolkit is... ummm... less than optimum.
Remember you don't even have to flash Amon Ra, or any other recovery... just download and unzip into your adb/fastboot directory, then reboot into hboot and start fastboot and enter:
fastboot boot recovery.img (replace "recovery.img" with the img name from the Amon Ra ZIP file)
then use the options in Amon Ra to install SuperSU (root) from there you can update to the latest version after it is installed.

If your bootloader is unlocked already, then it is super simple because you are already unlocked and therefore have working ADB...
1) Just download a recovery, CWM, TWRP, or Amon Ra
2) Extract the ZIP to your [adb sdk directory]\platform-tools\ directory (or mini-adb if you went that route)
3) Download the latest SuperSU here: http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu
4) Copy UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.80.zip to the root of your SD Card
5) On your PC open a command prompt in your adb directory
6) type "adb reboot bootloader", wait for it to complete and start fastboot
7) type "fastboot boot recovery.img" (substitute the name of the img file from the recovery zip for recovery.img)
8) Install/flash (depending on recovery) and find the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.80.zip file and install/flash it
9) reboot
10) done, enjoy root

When in fastboot, type fastboot devices and see if it sees your phone... My guess is you have a driver issue.

I installed SultanXDA's CM13 ROM and I am using TWRP (not the 3 version). I haven't installed SuperSU, so it means that I am not rooted, too... But...
I wanted to flash this camera: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...t-oxygenos-3-0-1-beta-camera-cm-aosp-t3386799
The problem is that when I get to recovery mode in order to install the zip file, I see all kinds of folders, but not my "normal" ones... I am using my SD card as internal space...
I read somewhere that I have to update to new TWRP 3 in order to overcome this...
So, does it have to do with the version of twrp and if so, how can I update it without being root and without being able for the current TWRP to read the zip files that I will "feed" it?
Maybe my only method is through adb?
Flashing through adb will erase anything else other than changing the TWRP version?
Thanks in advance guys!

If your Bootloader is unlocked try Fastboot.
Reboot OPX into Fastboot Mode. (Power + Volume Up i think or trough TWRP or CM)
Connect it to your PC
On PC: Download the latest TWRP img File
Start CMD in same Folder as the downloaded File is.
Type: 'Fastboot devices' to make sure your OPX connected properly
Typ: 'Fastboot Flash Recovery *DownloadedTWRP*.img'
Flashing new TWRP only overwrites current TWRP and doesn't erease anything else

Was to big to upload it as img, so I renamed it to .apk,
So don't forget to rename it to .img
Great! So, the procedure begins!
Updated from OOS 3.1.3 to 3.1.4 from the OTA Update App that's built in in OOS 3.1.3. Hit install from the app itself. Succesful boot to 3.1.4 but TWRP BluSpark seems to have disappeared and I'm unable to flash it back. Hence I cant root the phone. Please help. Need to root urgently. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: fixed by erasing the recovery partition and then flashing TWRP BSv41 through bootloader.

Make sure you have the latest build from above link in your fastboot folder on you computer and rename it to twrp.img and simply follow the below steps:
1) Reboot device to bootloader.
2) type in ' fastboot erase recovery ' and hit enter. This will wipe the recovery partition.
3) type in ' fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ' This will flash the new TWRP recovery into the boot partition.
4) (optional) type in ' fastboot boot twrp.img ' to directly boot into recovery.
