Mine was stock froyo 2.2.1

my first custom ROM is Mik 6.5.5 then 6.5.8

you are true; better than stock.

I'm asking because thinking whether want to change to NBB first and update Custom ROM; since nowadays more and more Custom ROM are in new baseband rather than old baseband

sprint evo 4g, updated to the newest version before deciding to root. yes i now know that was my biggest mistake!

ok so i used this: themikmik dot com/showthread.php?11114-GUIDE-WIP-How-to-achieve-S-OFF-after-unlocking-2-18-HBOOT-with-HTCDev-com-No-More-Watermark

after using the HTCDEV to unlock.

basic info:

says unlocked at top of screen

hboot 2.18.0001

radio 2.15.00.12.19

s-on

version 2.3.5

kernel 2.6.35.10 g4b48446

software 4.67.651.3

pri2.33_003

prl 60683

hardware 0003

i am stuck in between step 10 and 11.

problem i am having is the pc36img.zip. i tried both that are listed and tried both from different computers to make sure it wasn't a pc issue. i get a message that says "no or wrong zip image" it never gives me the option to update in fastboot. and never goes to saying locked again as described in the tutorial.

i downloaded su, root checker,and busy box. root checker says the phone is rooted. i know i need to get the h boot to a lower level inorder to do the unrevoked3 program.

tried flashing the recovery and says "cant open /sdcard/pc36img.zip (bad)"

made sure it wasn't zip.zip and it was so i fixed that and still wouldn't work.

the only thing i am not sure of is step 10 and wether i did it right :Once the misc partition has been updated, you can downgrade your Bootloader and HBOOT to a non-watermarked version rootable with unrevoked.

does the partition auto update or do i need to do something to make it update? i didn't see any option for this. eveything up to this point went exacty liek it should have so now i am lost. i have searched numerous forums and found similar problems but none that were exactly the same. and none of the solutions worked for me. i tried all the basics rebooting, etc and nothing. any info would be greatly appriciated.

the only other thing that i may have done wrong that i can tell is what file i am trying to make the pc36img. at the bottom of post # 1 it has 2 attachments listed as pc36img files those are the ones i am trying to use. when i try to click the hyperlinks thru the rest of the post i get an error message from that site thats says " This account's public links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled! " so i dont know if that site has the same zip files or i am completely using the wrong zip file.

sorry for the long winded post i know the noob video says make it brief but i figured the more info the better.

thank you.

Oh brother was it!

Your S-On,so your not rooted.

Make sure the PC36IMG is all in CAPS.

Sent from my Dell PC.
[EVO 4G General] Notorious:
Actually s-on or s-off status doesn't determine if your rooted or not. That indicates wether your NAND unlocked or not. To be rooted is to have busybox and superuser permissions
[EVO 4G General] 98tib:
when i check with root checker it says i am rooted and have su. maybe it just means unlocked? busy box also says rooted?

pc36img is in all caps.

thanks for the quick response!
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
This. S-Off/S-On is basically root for bootloader only has no bearing on root of phone itself you can be s-on and still root your phone you just wont have or be able to have a custom recovery or flash unsigned zips thru bootloader so romming is almost impossible but root is completely possible
[EVO 4G General] Diablo67:

[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
I can probably help here.

If all you want is to be rooted, then you are. There's no reason to do the rest, especially if you're out of warranty. Since you already have a custom recovery installed, you can feel free to flash a custom ROM, and not even worry about the rest of the process.

The Dropbox links thing should be fixed now. I had to move them all to 4shared.

As far as the misc partition flashing, as long as you didn't get any errors when in the command prompt/adb shell, then I'm sure it flashed successfully. The only way to tell is if the Froyo PC36IMG.zip flashes successfully without a "main version fail."

I can assure you the PC36IMG works, as I've used it many times myself. Did you confirm the md5? Is it possible your SD card got corrupted somehow? Those are the only reasons it wouldn't pick it up.
[EVO 4G General] 98tib:
thanks for coming in here i really appriciate it.

i still pay for the extended warranty if thats what you are asking for my phone.

my hboot is still 2.18 and because of that i can not run the unrevoked software either.

as far as the pc36img, i am just not sure if i am changing the name on the correct file. in your first post you have 2 attachments, those are the ones i tried to use to rename, was i correct in doing that? if i go back to where you say to use the 3.70 Froyo ROM with 2.10 HBOOT - md5: 7056D42812AA5DF03FCC8DDDC2B64E85

it goes to a dead site, so thats what makes me think i did something wrong. no main version ail messages and the top of my fastboot screen still says unlocked, not locked and not missing.

thank you again for your help and imput

how do i confirm if the md5 number is correct?
[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
The two files attached to the first post are both recoveries. You only needed one of them, and I assume you were okay with that part. The link you speak of should be working now, and that file gets renamed the same way the recovery zip did. As far as checking the md5, you just need to find a program that will do that. I use HashTab.

Like I said before, the dead link has nothing to do with you; Dropbox just canned my account because of too many downloads. The link should now be pointing to 4shared if the md5 doesn't match and you need to redownload.

You don't necessarily need to worry about the watermark issue now; just wait until you need repairs, and then you can use that process to remove it. You'll probably know a lot more if/when that happens, and the process will be easy as pie :).
[EVO 4G General] 98tib:
i used only one and that was fine.

here is the link i am talking about, when i click on the hyperlink for pc36img.zip it still leads to drop box.and not a file i can download to drop/drag to the root of the sd card

PC36IMG.zip - 3.70 Froyo ROM with 2.10 HBOOT - md5: 7056D42812AA5DF03FCC8DDDC2B64E85

both attachments at the bottom of post # 1 start with pc36img, i am using one of them as the renamed file, i am sure if i am wrong in doing that at this point.

i understand about the water mark. thank you.
[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
Thanks, you were right, that link wasn't updated. It is now :).

You can remove the renamed recovery PC36IMG from your card and replace it with the Froyo PC36IMG, if you're going to continue trying to flash and NAND unlock with unrevoked.

[EVO 4G General] 98tib:
thank you.

i downloaded the correct file, renamed, and moved to the sd card and i'm still having the same problem. never asks to update. still says unlocked and still can't run unrevoked.

i really do appriciate all your help and imput with solving my problem
[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
What kind of sd card are you using? You might want to try a different card, or reformat the stock card, if that's what you're using. That's the only other reason it wouldn't pick up the file, provided it's named correctly. And I assume you verified the md5 and it's good? And you're certain the file is on the root of the sd card as well? I cant think of anything else that could be causing the problem. Let me make sure my bootloader reads the file just to make sure.

EDIT: Scratch everything I said above. If your phone still says "unlocked" at the top of the bootloader, the misc partition wasn't updated successfully. Did you already complete that part, with no errors? You need to reconnect the device while booted up, with USB Debugging enabled, and run those commands from the command prompt from the folder with adb in it. Make sure you have the files "flash_image" (extracted from zip file) and "mtd-eng.img" (extracted from zip file) on the root of your sd card. If you're using Windows 7, run Command Prompt as an administrator. Let me know the output of those commands before continuing. If you got any errors on that part, that would be why you can't flash the Froyo ROM.

I saw you mentioned that in your OP, but I guess I didn't realize you skipped that part. That'a really the most important part of the process. It's the part right before the sentence you mention about the misc partition being downgraded. That last command flashes the mtd-eng.img file to the misc partition.
[EVO 4G General] 98tib:
both files are unziped and on the sd card, running windows vista. ran the cmd and it looked like just like it did in your post but now that i am thinking about it i dont remember the phone doing anything. i also have the zip file for both on the sd card, should i remove them? but then again it didn't give me any errors either.

using the stock sd card. sandisc 8gb class 4.

i will redo the cmd portion again when i get home, limited here at work.

i thank you again for your help.
[EVO 4G General] Captain_Throwback:
It does sound like it worked okay. The phone isn't supposed to do anything. But there is a way to verify that it flashed successfully. And yes, you should delete the zip files for those off of the root of your sd, to be safe.

Before you re-run those commands, open a command prompt and navigate to the location of fastboot. Put your phone into fastboot mode, connect to the the computer, and run this command:

fastboot getvar mainver

and report back what it says. My guess will be it'll report "4.67.651.3". That means the main version hasn't been downgraded. Then, reboot the device and run the commands as listed in the guide to gain superuser access & flash the downgrade to the misc partition. Then reboot into the bootloader, and you'll know it worked if it now says "LOCKED (OOW)" at the top. If it doesn't, then I'm not really sure what to do next. But definitely do a screenshot of the command prompt commands and output, starting with "adb shell".

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akarian:
My phone's proximity sensor stopped working, when i restard it works for one or two times and its not working again,

sometimes it is operating normally but about one hour later its stopping again . i was on stock rom and i tried different versions too.

i checked xda before writing this post and i saw one of SG2 owner phones front panel had changed by techical service.

my question is i send the phone to service today, and if there is mechanical problem on my device , they will change it.

So what is yours opinion about it? Is it a hardware or software problem?

Thanks a lot for the answers from now

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akarian:
i got my phone from service today, and they told me there is no problem with the sensors they upgraded to new firmware. I checked again the sensors by *#0*# test. The proximity sensor was same. The funny thing is a guy from technical servis said, there is no proximity sensor in this phone,:) and i asked which function of phone shuts of the screen while i m making calls? he said it is the light sensor.

i think it is gonna take time....

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quantumstate:
Well I've just spent six hours trying to figure out how to root this damned SCH-i800, and am at my wit's end.

I've finally determined that I have to install Heimdall and its frontend (into Debian) in order to install ClockWorkMod, which will let me install new firmware. I've tried everything else in all its permutations and they've all failed.

So I start heimdall-frontend and plug in the tablet. Nothing. The kernel sees it and sets it up, but Heimdall sees nothing. I go to the Utilities tab in the frontend and hit Detect, but "Failed to detect compatible download-mode device."

Nothing in the Readme about installing additional drivers, because I guess the udev file is supposed to take care of that.

The dispersed and chaotic information on this process makes it almost impossible. I have to think 90% must give up. I'm very technical, and I'm about to.

I haven't even begun to figure out where to get ClockWordMod...
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Quantumstate:
OK, this whole thing does not work. I go to get the ClockWorkMod file at

http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager/developers/vzwtab?name=Samsung Galaxy Tab - VZW

... click on ClockWorkMod ... and nothing.

Although ClockWork won't do me any good anyway with Heimdall busted.

Hopeless. This process is in complete disarray and is unusable.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
Picked up an NT finally now that the CM9 looks like it is around the corner.

NT came OOB with 1.4.1... but I'm confused as to which way to best root it? Mind you I've never rooted a device before, JB iPhones yes... first real Android device (other than my Android running over WM on my HTC Touch Pro 2).

From the DEV section it looks like 1.4.1 can be rooted without having flash back to 1.4.0... but it appears it's not 100%. I try to avoid flashing whole updates as much as possible... I'm an old school electronics guy where EEPROMs were good for 20-30 writes before they went in the bin.

So if it's possible I would rather root a 1.4.1 and block OTA... or should I just do the 1.4.0 downgrade that also installs CWM?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Land Master:
IMHO I would revet back to 1.4.0 using This

And then Root using This

From your comments I believe you have already visited the the 2nd thread I linked. Do NOT use any of the files from the OP. Brianf21 posted a file yesterday that is the zero'd out image (smaller) with his latest Update.zip all in one file. It's the only file you will need. Use that file and skip any steps that say to copy update.zip to the Root of the SD card.

There is controversy as to if rooting 1.4.1 using that method leaves side-loading intact. Some say yes, some no. Avoid the controversy and REVERT to 1.4.0.

My .02

Edit: I spoke incorrectly. You will need the file linked in post 14 if you will be using the windows method as it contains the Image Flashing routine. Just use Brian's file when the instructions tell you to browse for the image.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
I ended up just using Brian's image from yesterday over 1.4.1... so far so good, have the GApps, can DL from the market, etc.

If anything gets weird, I'll drop down to 1.4.0 and re-root.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Land Master:
Can you side-load app's?

Does the unknown sources toggle remain checked?

Is NTHiddenSettings functioning properly?

Thanks!

Edit: Saw your post in the other thread. Guess the answer to the above is NO...
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
Yeah, I think the 1.4.1 sideloading isn't a 100% guarantee. Perhaps if the NT was at 1.4.0 and then upgraded, there might be something that allows it to be re-opened.

But for a factory fresh 1.4.1... I think it's a no-go.

Will revert to 1.4.0 tomorrow and re-root.

Do I still need to block OTA with Brianf's image or does it cover that?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Land Master:
I did .... using the Titanium Method (3 files). My version now shows 9.9.9
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rcHumanz:
I too am running 1.4.1 and rooted using Brian's update.zip. The Unknown Sources doesn't stay ticked, and the hack to get it working doesn't work. But I can sideload apps using adb, no problems. I've gotten several live wallpapers I'd be collecting over the last few weeks installed.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] quid246:
I managed to sideload SQLite Editor and manually did the FOTA changes and also edit the "Install_Non_Market_Apps" key in the Settings.db file.

Managed to install Amazon and side-load a bunch of other stuff since. Dunno if the key setting will survive a reboot, will try later tonight.

EDIT: It appears as if doing a manual edit in Settings.db will allow sideloading even after reboot.
