[spiritcrusher33]

http://theunlockr.com/2009/11/18/how...-in-one-click/ used this method.. i get to the fastboot and click the home button to recover. i get this

After successfully completing every direction with the flashrec method on my sprint htc hero, I get the triangle-exclamation point when attempting to access the recovery menu at startup.

trying to figure out what went wrong.. im sure its something simple..lol

Something is wrong with ur recovery you r flashing. Format sd card, reboot phone, ensure usb debugging is enabled and do it again.

If u used nandroid ur rooted! U can search shootme in the market and try that screenshot app it only works on rooted phones. Get the pink one its better and its useful 2 keep. Go fresh, uninstall WiFi tether and reinstall 1.7 pre for hero to make it work. Google will lead u 2 WiFi tether download page.

I thought you said you used Nandroid? Ok...

Get the pre-kitchen from geekfor.me and use the one step auto rooter. Flipz made it and he is pretty good with it.

lol ya it did a nadroid back up.. from when i held the home and pwer button to start the phone back up... i even see the nandroid folder on my sd card like it did the full image backup..

ive tried that shootme program. and the tether program.. both say i need to be rooted.lol plus my coffie is wearing off. so im prolly not understanding things right,lol

Wait, I know the problem. I don't do the one click or the flashrec method I just hear they are easier. You need to flash a rom that IS rooted. Haha. Get Fresh from geekfor.me and flash it.
