Flashing the Recovery

-download PG86IMG-twrp-shooter-1.0.1.zip
-copy the .zip to the root of your sd card
-boot into bootloader without the usb cable connected (adb reboot bootloader)
-you may have to select the bootloader option
-it will scan your sd card, when it finds the PG86IMG, it will prompt you to install
-you now have a custom recovery :)
-power down phone, boot back into bootloader without the cable plugged in
-select the recovery option
-phone will boot into recovery, I strongly suggest doing a nandroid backup!

Anyone got a mirror for this zip?

I did it!

Obviously, all credit to all the developers and OMJ and the video that I used to back me up!

Thank you all! This is great!

You may want to tell people about their antivirus program. I had to turn off my Norton from Comcast because it wiped out the Revolutionary.exe when I tried to run it!

Turned it off and everything went well. Thanks again!

Now, can I remove Bloatware? and how do I do it?

Ok, now I have a question.

I used the CWM recovery not the TWRP one and it worked perfect.

Now I note that Scrosler's ROM says that you have to have the TWRP recovery!!??

How do I fix this if it is indeed a problem.

Thank you!

Found the Answer here [RECOVERY] [EVO3D] TeamWin Recovery Project (twrp) v1.0.1 [7/30/11] - xda-developers

Now I have TWRP

Thanks Will!

use something along the lines of TI Back up to really cleanse.


But if your going to do that... Just flash a custom ROM. Why go through the hassle of possibly uninstalling something and soft bricking your phone?
You can freeze them in TB first...then run it that way for a few days...if no issue, "probably" can remove...but USE CARE! :twisted:
