OK, I must be a total retard, but I have been at this for like 5 hours now...

I was able to do the first part of the ROOT... but I am unable to do the following:

1) I am unable to unlock the NAND in any way (I have an EVO 4g version 3)
2) I am unable to reboot to recovery using ROM Manager...
3) I am unable to load a ROM manually, without it restarting over and over and over again
4) I have tried formatting an 8 gig SD card... several times... it still won't read the downloaded and renamed ENG-PC36IMG.ZIP file...
5) I am able to reload my factory rom (PC36IMG.ZIP), from the factory 8gig micro-sd card, but I am unable to load the ENG-PC36IMG.ZIP rom...
6) Whenever I go through the process of loading the ENG-PC36IMG.ZIP file (of course after renaming it to PC36IMG.ZIP, it first says it is unable to find the IMG and then it starts checking the img and finishes with "Main version is Older!" and prompts me to reboot the phone..

So for now, I appear to have a rooted device, but am unable to load roms... which SUCKS...
SOmeone help me out here... I am coming from a Windows Mobile and Apple Ipod\Touch background, so I know how to unlock and to jailbreak phones... This thing, has baffled me beyond words...
What am I doing wrong? WHy won't my phone load the proper image...

Help me out fellas... I am feeling like a complete retard right now... I just went from $97.00 a month, in fees, Sero plan with my wife and I, to $129.00 + Fees for the SERO family plan with 3 phones.. so there is no going back with me... only going forward... I am absolutely HATING this phone right now... it is a love hate relationship. I love the voice recognition features, but I hate the lack of hardware buttons, the sensitivity of the touch capacitive buttons, the difficulty with the little things... The herky jerkyness of the OS which reminds me of Windows, and the need to have to go through and disable a bunch of stuff, just to preserve batterypower...

Somebody please help me out... please...
