I have finished rooting the phone, but I cannot find out how to put a ROM on the phone. I have done this tons of time with WM 6.5, but just can't understand the process, naming of the files, etc. please point me in the right direction.
thanks!

Which root process did you do?
This tutorial tells you how to flash a ROM. What are you having trouble with? What ROM are you trying to install?
Most ROM's come in a flashable zip file. You put it on your card. Boot into Recovery and there will be a Menu option about flashing a zip (exact menu wording depends which Recovery you are running). Select the zip you want and your golden.
Some ROMs may be in the PC36IMG file format then you use that the same way you used that file format during the root process. Put it on your card and boot into bootloader and let your device read the file.

Thanks for getting back to me. I think I figured this out. Booting into recovery through me off but now I have got it.

Maybe I am an idiot...I am trying to put the new Ava-Froyo Rom on the phone. But it just keeps looping the boot screen.

Did you wipe first? Factory reset and wipe Dalvik cache and try again.

So I got this message that there was an update available so I did it. Now I have FROYO.
Now I'm not rooted anymore!!!

How do I root after the 2.2 update?

Haha... just wanted to be the first to post that in this thread.

firmware version-2.1-update 1

baseband version 1.39.00.04.26 (updated from http://geekfor.me/evo/radio/radio139000531/)

kernel version- 2.6.29-a2443432

build number- 1.32.651.6 CL171253

I just put the regular sprint rom ( http://geekfor.me/evo/21/ota1326516/ ) on it for now. i have the wifi tether working.

Does Everything look right as far as the root goes? im just making sure i have done everything right.

Also im wanting to delete some of the apps off of my phone like the sprint ones is there anyway i can do that?
and what is a good rom to use other than this regular sprint rooted rom?

To get rid of programs, you should use root explorer.

Then go to system/apps and make sure its set to rw so you can delete. Then find what you wanna delete, long press the app then delete

Looks good as far as rooting goes. Good job.

Root explorer works or you can just use rm at the adb shell to get rid of them... look around and you will find a few different methods to remove the bloatware.

Code:

adb remount
adb shell
cd /system/app
ls
rm NameOfapp.apk
rm NameOfapp.odex <--if it has one

BTW, 2 posts and you got everything done. Good job, can tell you actually took some time to read and figure out whats going on. props.
