Re: i need help real bad with my EVO 4G

my understanding is that unrevoked will not root HBOOT-2.02.0000, you should have followed this thread...

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045

also, what ROM are you trying to flash?


*edit*

here, I uploaded the stock 3.30 ROM, rename to update.zip, copy to SD & flash

Re: i need help real bad with my EVO 4G

Right-click and Save Target.


if it is not named PC36IMG.zip, rename it to that. (case sensitive)
You know what you are doing now? Just get the file on your SD card, probably have to mount the card on you PC. Install card in phone.

Hold the power button down and select Power Off. Then hold the Vol down button and press the power button. When you go into HBoot, it will see the PC36IMG.zip and ask to install it. Vol up is yes. This flash will take close to 10 minutes. Relax and watch it. When done, it will ask if it should re-boot. Select yes.

Boot up takes a few minmutes so don't panic.

Re: i need help real bad with my EVO 4G

DO WHAT LKILLEN SAID. i had to rename the file to PC36IMG then boot up in what i call 'safe mode' and then run the update and BAM, factory condition.

NOW: i need help running through this to UNLOCK the phone so i can use it on a different carrier. what programs and such do i need to download and what process do i run this shit all in. i used the thread link that told me how to unlock that OMJ posted but its telling me to use unrEVOked, and all i have to say is f*** that. unrEVOked is what screwed me up in the first place. that and i probably was using programs and such that were outdated.

also, thank you OMJ, i was about to freak out if i just sabotaged a $600 phone. it boots up fine and i can use it now, its just not unlocked... yet...

If you follow exactly what it tell you to do then there shouldn't be no problem. I first try was not successful, I than carefully read word by word and try again and it work.
