Ok, I need a Nandroid backup for idiots guide.

Power down phone. Power up holding volume down and End key. If you are rooted you will get a white screen with 3 options. One of those options is to press home for recovery, press it and you will either get the htc screen w green words or you will get a phone with an exclamation point. The ! is a sign that you don't have a recovery image installed correctly. The words is a great sign, continue with back up from nandroid. Oh and don't partition your sd card until you have backed it up!!

and to get the recovery image flashed.. i go to your first link. go to the ppcgeeks link under root the hero??

[relisted]

okay well i follower that link to A T
nothing.
still have the ! in the triangle

i have the recovery image on my sd card..
i typed this in and it said not found.
adb shell flash_image recovery recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img

Restart the box and phone.

Put it on the sd card again. I know you said it is there, but do it anyway, I had to. Once it says its on there by giving you a time type adb shell and press enter.

You will have a dollar sign then type cd /sdcard/ and press enter

Then type su

Should have a #. Flash the image by using the flash_image command you stated above. If it doesn't repeat your command in the line below it, then it didn't work.

I did this process at least 5 times and it finally worked, I don't know what I changed, but it worked. If one of the steps doesn't work as stated let me know.
