you should always have a backup on your computer... you'll need to flash a system image through fastboot or something to get it to work since there's no SBF for 2.3.5

Can he copy his Bootstrap recovery files from his micro sd card to his computer using a card reader then flash those image files through fastboot?

well i'm not sure if anything besides img files can be flashed via fastboot. so you need to find the system image file from someone who has it? i don't as i have the electrify.... but maybe you could temporarily reflash the electrify rom to it then restore your bootstrap backup... let me find a link. i sent you a PM.

If that did not work.. boot into recovery and wipe data/factory reset.
:WARNING:
You will lose information if you do this. You will be starting fresh! So back up what ever you want to save before doing it.

Naa the sd should be fine, but as I like to say... when in doubt.. back up anyways!
It can never hurt to have a backup.
Title says it all but a picture says so much more
this is a port of a port that from where i found it says Credit goes to Elitemovil for originally making it.
I just took the job of making it work on the Photon.
This was made to work with Yays 4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_7 Deodexed SBF
To use on a stock phone
Flash in CWM or Bootstrap
Use Root explorer and rename the systemui.odex file to systemui.odex.bak (it's in the System/app folder) then reboot.
ty iaccax and mr_wrong_0 for finding that out.
Make sure to wipe Dalvik Cache
Will be along first boot
Nice

I know its not designed for it, but would it work on a stock OTA 4.5.1A-1_SUN-154_6? Just want to verify that it wont cause something crazy to happen, im stock rom rooted and locked, btw. Looks great!
i dont know if it will work or not maybe someone else does or you can make a backup first and try. No luck then just restore it.

Works perfect with cwm unlocked! Thanks.

I got it to flash. Redownloaded it. Must have been a bad download.
I am still locked and unrooted on 198_7 and this is exactly what I was waiting for.
Thanks. Will give it a try when I get to a computer.

doesn't work for me, on jokerstock rev1 with 1.4 overvolted kernel.
If you are on honeycomb you are free to flash recovery via Rom manager.
If you are on gb I am working on a compatible recovery right now. Once I get it done you will be able to use the features in Rom manager but not flash recovery via Rom manager
confirmed working with Honeycomb htcdev unlocked hboot 1.14.

any hope on porting a touch based recovery? I think all tabs should have a touch based recovery since the lack of HW buttons
Guessing this still does not allow to use the internal memory for anything?

I removed the update zip. It doesn't actually replace recovery. Only soft boots it. Use img file via fastboot

is there anything special we gotta do if we already have the older version? Or can we just use the fastboot command and boom?

Updated OP
I just rooted my view last night.. I flashed recovery once, enough to put the SU file on SD card to root. But since then, I've tried to do a backup (through ROM manager) and the white HTC screen pops up and doesn't go away. So then I tried to do it manually through hboot and when I choose recovery it does the same thing .. what do you think might be the problem? I'm very new to this so I'm hoping it is something simple that I missed... Please help
Well, I just received my phone today and I decided to root it by following a guide. Little did I know that firmware I was rooting was not meant for this phone. Now the phone shows the Samsung screen for a split second and then it turns off.
Is there anything I can do to restore it back to normal? I only have access to download mode right now.
Pm howtomen hrs helped someone earlier today in irc. not sure how. But you're still ok

If you can get into download mode you're ok. You need to flash a stock rom and you'll be back to normal. Don't flash chainfire's root from the international thread because the kernel is not the same.
