After rooting, installing amon ra recovery, backing up my rom and being s-off all of a sudden I cant get into my recovery no matter what I try. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks

I had similar issues. I flashed twrp then switched back to amon ra
Search for the amon ra recovery thread in the dev section, and download the ph98img.zip version of the recovery to the root of your external sd. Flash it in boot loader.
Just refreshed it and got it working... Thanks

I installed the unrooted ICS but i have tried over 5 different superuser.zips and note of then will root my device. I even tried a zerg rush root script and it failed with htc sync, without it, in bootloader, in fastboot, in recovery and off. I would appreciate a way to flash a superuser.zip, i tried the prerooted earlier and i got extreme stability issues
Flash Amon Ra recovery and install superuser from Developer menu.

Sometimes Amon Ra doesn't work. Usually you have to use this method as a 2nd resource. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22680227&postcount=1036. Honestly I prefer using the 2nd method and flashing this .zip
I have been encouraged to install 4ext, but being a noob, I don't know how to remove cwm and install 4ext. Is it a matter of downloading the new recovery program and installing and letting it overwrite or do I have to remove cwm first?
Thanks!

It overwrites . Just run the 4ext updater app
Also, I used the HTC dev method to unlock so I am still s-on. Is that an issue with this project?

It's not an issue just download the app and when it runs it will ask if you're s-on then flash the 4ext overwriting cwm. Then your all set. It can flash kernels making fast boot or flash gui obsolete

Hey guys, so I just used Juopunutbear S-OFF to start installing some custom ROMs. Quick question, is there any special way I have to start flashing ROMs? I was trying to install [SENSELESS]_d3rpICS_[BAREBACK] so I downloaded the ROM and placed it on my SD card. Once I powered my phone back on and try to install the new ROM is says that my SD card is not inserted into the SD slot (which it is, I can even see files on it).
Also, now I can't even power my phone back up and fully boot up, it is stuck at the hTC screen. Any suggestions?
Can you boot into hboot? What recovery are you using?

If you did a back up before flashing the Rom, restore it and then get 4ext recovery. It's the one that works best. Once you have 4ext, do a super wipe and then flash it again.

I'll give it a shot. Although I didn't create a back up before I began this process. I think when I was using Juopunutbear to callS-OFF it created a backup then. Is a back up mandatory?

A back up is useful when this happens. Just try and use twrp for now but wipe everything (data,cache,dalvik cache,etc) before flashing again.

There is also an updated version of twrp (version 2.2.0) that might work better. You can find it on their site and push it to your phone using fastboot. Google them and then follow the directions on their website.

I got my Evo 3d off Craigslist this morning and i love it. Traded my Evo 4g plus cash for it and i couldnt be happier. I was very successful in rooting the 4g amd never had any problems that i can think of and im hoping the same goes for the 3d.
Anyways ive been reading and reading on how to root it, get s-off so i can install a recovery and them flash a rom and kernel. Ive managed to confuse myself because it seems that if you root it one way, you may not be able tp fash custom kernels and if you use another method to root it, your more than like to have all sorts of problems.
Basicall i need help and if someone could post a link to show me best method on how to root, s-off, install custom recovery, and install a rom on the 3d it would be greatly appreciated.
I have Sprint (cdma) Android 2.3.4. Software # 2.08.651.2 hboot 1.5, baseband 0.97.10.0808

I ended up goin a different route by using the HTC unlcock bootloader and that was suscessful. I still have s on and I think I'm gonna keep it that way for now but I need to install a custom recovery.
I've tried setting up sdk all morning and can't get the cmd to recognize adbas an interal or external command. Not sure what exactly it is that in doing wrong.
I wanting to know if there'sa way to install my first custom recovery thru the bootloader in my phone without using my computer so I can flash the su.zip and get this thing rooted. Thanks
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
The twrp recovery has a method to flash that recovery without a computer by downloading it as a zip and naming it properly. See their site for detail.
I still recommend s-off since it is easier to flash Roms and the ics Roms tend to bootloop with s-on.

I dowloaded and renamed it to PC86100IMG.zip then went to bootloader, it read the zip but said "update fail, main version older!" Have any idea as to why its saying that?

It looks like you renamed it to the wrong thing. If you downloaded TWRP 2.2.0 zip, it must be renamed PG86IMG.zip on the root of the sd card. Then when you update in bootloader, it should work.

Hmmm... Does your phone boot? If so, you could download 4ext (see my signature) and install their app. Then it will push the custom recovery for you. I use 4ext myself anyway.
I tried using their app already and it won't let me since I don't have root

Just wanted to give you a thanks again for all your help. I was finally able to figure out why adb wasn't working. Once thaat was fixed, I installed twrp recovery and flashed Su.then did the wire trick which me VERY nervous but it worked and got S-Off after a couple tries and I then installed 4ext recovery from which I understand is the best recovery available. Thanks again!

Your welcome. Glad you figured it out. I personally have never had an issue with the 4ext recovery.
I flashed speed from to my Phone. Now I can't go into recovery mode. Try to go to root toolbox and rebbot into recovery and it just freezes and says the "not responding" message..
Use 4ext app and does the same.

Which twrp version? There was a brief day or two that the gs3s twrp wouldn't read zips either but was fixed yesterday.
However, with the amaze you should be using 4ext anyway. Make your life easier

first off stop what your doing and go flash 4EXT recovery.. its the #1 recommended recovery for all htc phones...
If u r on twrp just go to mount and mount the external or internal memory... I switched to twrp after 4ext didn't want to flash a Rom...

thats out of date version, and do you have root permissions? because the database checks online after reacquiring root permissions... go into recovery and try to fix permissions then restart the phone and try again, but make sure you have super SU installed.. superuser is kinda buggy for some reasons with some apps
I'm not rooted anymore after flashing the speed rom. I have the file I need to get root back but I can't get into recovery to flash the file and with teamwin the zip doesn't show..
I don't know what to do...
Appreciate the help....

Read. Learn adb. Or sell ur phone for a dumb phone.

if your having issues flashing something with twrp use 4EXT, you can use hasoon's AIO toolkit to flash 4EXT and the toolkit also pushes supersu to your SD card so you can flash it in recovery
