Re: How to install 3.29.651.5 OTA and be rooted *stock rom*

Download the OTA update. Multiupload.com - upload your files to multiple file hosting sites!
Put the downloaded .zip on your microSD card.
Boot into recovery mode by using Quick Boot (my preferred method) or by turning off the EVO, powering it back on while holding the volume down button, and selecting the "recovery" option from the list.
Select "install zip from sdcard" -> "choose zip from sdcard" and select the file from wherever you put it in step #2.
Wait for the installation to complete, rebooting manually if necessary.
Use unrevoked 3.21 to re-root your phone.

I can't take credit, got this from "Good and EVO.net" It worked for me!

Re: How to install 3.29.651.5 OTA and be rooted *stock rom*

So, if I have never rooted before, can I install the new OTA and then root with unrevoked 3.21?

I had previously removed all the Sprint apps on my rooted phone, did a manual update to 3.29, and everything went fine, did not lose any of my settings, it didn't even reinstall those removed apps.

Re: How to install 3.29.651.5 OTA and be rooted *stock rom*

hi boob boo thank you everything awesome until here :

(((put these 2 files on your sd card (delete all previous zips)

turn off Evo
boot into bootloader (hold volume down than press power) it will launch the clock work recover and when prompted install it )))
I get to boot into the bootloader but then it wont give me any options to install anything instead it gives me the RECOVERY option and when i click on that it reboots automatically my phone putting me into a red triangle with a ! mark. Could you break this part to me with baby steps please. Thanks in advanced
