[How to] Guide to S-off, Recovery & ROOT

[mta2]

I don't understand I have tried a bunch times, tried different roms and still can't get a rom to load up properly. I did an update 3 days ago OTA so whatever version I updated to that's what I have. But once the rom loads up as soon as I get to the main screen, the phone shuts off and reboots.

maybe it's time to start from scratch....install the 2.17 RUU, then start over.

what hboot do you have? if you have hboot 1.50 you have to go to hboot and from hboot go to recovery from what i remember

I do have 1.50, and i believe that is how I am doing it. even tried twrp recovery and flashed again with no change

what rom you using? did you try to re download to make sure its not corrupt

[sicos]

i used the OMJ_EVO_3D_2.3.4_GB_Custom_deodexed_v2.7-signed and the OMJ_EVO_3D_2.3.4_GB_Custom_deodexed_v2.5-signed....tried both and they both gave the error so Im not thinking its corrupt.

When i go from fastboot to bootloader it says cant find image for PG86IMG, can this be part of the problem??

[sicos]

I got it, used the Flash Image GUI and just reflashed the kernel and rom with that and it worked! thanks for your help!!
