Simple root is a method of rooting your phone. Once youre rooted you would need to download this ROM (or any custom ROM), place it on your sd card and then flash it through recovery.
[EVO 4G Android Development] vlug:
I understand how to root using simple root but I was one of the idiots that did the OTA update ON the 28th. My Evo was never rooted(dont kno why i waited so late) I found out that someone has the rooted stock rom containg the recent OTA update so how would i root my phone using that and simple root?
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
You can't use a ROM to root your phone. If you were rooted already you could flash this ROM to take advantage of the OTA updates. Basically its just another custom ROM, its just based on the OTA.
[EVO 4G Android Development] admorris:
Can I flash this over top of Fresh's latest ROM?? If so, do I do a wipe, or can I just flash and maintain all of my data?? Or is this considered a ROM in an of itself?

If the latter is the case, once I flash this can I flash Fresh's ROM over top of it without issues?

thanks and I hope I made myself clear on this.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Calkulin:
It depends on how Fresh has his ROM setup, if it boot loops after flashing mine, then you will need to do a wipe. But do a backup first and restore if you don't want to do a wipe
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
If you're trying to get fresh ROM with the OTA updates, then no it won't work. They're two separate roms.
[EVO 4G Android Development] caveman663:
This may be a dumb question but I'm still kind of a android newbie, but I have a device that hasn't been rooted yet because I got a warranty replacement. I am familiar with the rooting process but this one has the stock OTA update on it and I want to root it. The original PC36IMG.zip that I had doesn't work now. I get a "Main Version is Older" error. Can I use this for that? Do I rename it PC36IMG?
[EVO 4G Android Development] GadgetMonger:
Nope. There's no way to root new OTA yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Calkulin:
Just out of curiosity, who has 4G working with these ROMs? Just trying to see if it's isolated cases of it not working or a problem with the ROM since I don't have 4G here in Orlando yet to test
[EVO 4G Android Development] krizno:
Can I just flash this over joeykrims doedex 1.0.8. And keep all my apps widgets contact theams ect

Flash/Flash lite no longer works for me after applying this rom. Came from full root Joeys v8 deodexd. Applied new radio but not wimax (I get wimax but not on the new update, seems only official markets supported in the new wimax). I verified this by flashing joeys again, flash works flawlessly. OF course wipe, cache, dalvik etc. Anyone else? tried reflashing both but only joeys works. Thanks! :)

Edit: This applies only to the De-odexd rom. the Odex rom works great. Flashed joeys odex, reflashed this odex rom, flash still works. Maybe there is something up with the De-odexed version? thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] rose1:
I have 4G working just fine. I'm using damage controls 1.47.651.1 rom with the latest 4G radio and the latest cell radio firmware which is baseband 2.05.00.06.10

I really didn't notice better performance for the 4G. It works the same as before with 1 bar indoors and an occasional 2 bars.
[EVO 4G Android Development] frankenstein\:
OK, I had the problem many people are having with 4G following the update. My 4G would Scan without finding or attempting to connect to the network.

After applying this update again I did a little more digging as I was again stuck in the scanning for 4G network issue.

I ran through the checks outlined in this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7020516&postcount=3826 primarily looking to make sure my mac address was correct and the wimax_properties file had the correct entries as outlined there in. Many users are reporting the radio/wimax update is altering the wimax mac address of their device. first check the mac address as listed under the battery and write it down, then check the various places outlined in the post to ensure yours hasn't been altered.

I then found some information in the DC rom thread that suggested a number of steps, many of which wern't aplicable because I don't run DC but the ones I did use are as follows.

1. I ran an update of the prl just to make sure it was current. (Settings / System Updates)

2. I ran the profile update in the same location.

3. I then did this:

adb shell

ls /data/misc/wimax/

look for a file with your macaddress ending in .tree.xml. you want to move that to another location so it gets regenerated. (the following command basically renames it.)

mv /data/misc/wimax/(Your-mac-address).tree.xml /data/misc/wimax/(Your-mac-address).tree.xml.old

4. Start 4G (It didn't connect for me here.)

5. Power off the phone and power it back on. (When it powered back on it connected for me.)

4G has been working since then.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Evo1X:
Breaks voice search!

I hope this gets fixed. I use this alot...

The only thing not working (after hours of getting WiMax fixed...)
[EVO 4G Android Development] elegantai:
@evo1x, I dont think I have this problem. Do you mean the voice search button on the keyboard?
[EVO 4G Android Development] auky:
Uninstall Voice Search 1.4 using Titanium Backup, then install the attached and you should be golden.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Evo1X:
SWEET!

Auky, that did it. Voice search works. I hope someone can move your file to the first page. I tried other "installs" and this is the only thing that works.

Thanks again!

Merge OTA update with Stock ROM

I'm coming from WM and new to Android/Linux, so I apologize for the noob question, but are there any resources or tutorials explaining how to merge an OTA update with a stock ROM. I've extracted the stock ROM using dsixda’s kitchen, but I can't figure out how to combine (or add) the OTA updates to stock ROM. I've searched everywhere, but no luck. Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.
[EVO 4G Android Development] SOHKis:
not sure enough to advise you on how to merge the two, but you can pull the full 1.47 from here - http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/
[EVO 4G Android Development] jasonleb1:
So just to be sure, I have a stock unrooted 1.47 Evo and I can root using this method and then root DC after?

[EVO 4G Android Development] S4Rs:
Dont hate the newb.

I am seeing a lot of people have problems with this update. is that because people are applying this to custom roms? Can I apply this the same way I applied

the one from geekfor.me (1.32.651.6) after I rooted using "[TUTORIAL] EVO Full Root|OTA Root|Nand Backup/Restore|Flashing|for n00b's + videos"

and expect a stock rom with full root?

camera problems with this ROM?

Is anybody else who's using this rom having camera troubles? I'm getting a lot of "Sorry, the Android camera encountered a problem. You may need to restart the device" error messages. These happen more in 3rd party apps (I mainly notice this in Barcode Scanner), but I have seen this message in the stock camera app as well (in the case of the stock camera app, the screen goes black, but then the app immediately quits, with no error message, FC, etc.). Rebooting *sometimes* brings the camera back to life (but more often does not). I don't think it's my hardware, as when I reverted back to stock (using the 1.47.651.1 RUU) my camera works perfectly.

Losing NAND unlock

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here. I've unlocked NAND like 5 times, and each time I flash (the ODEX-ed) ROM I lose it.

Basically I do part 2 of toast's method, then install the clockwork recovery. When I boot the phone I can do "adb remount" without any issues.

Then I use clockwork to load up the ODEXed ROM and *poof* can no longer do "adb remount".

Anyone who lost NAND with this eventually get it back (in the OP it says to redo part 2 of toast's, but I have been through this cycle like 5 times already. Help...!
[EVO 4G Android Development] darkfluid:
I don't get it, why are so many people reporting problems if this is simply the stock rom with su?? Are they not wiping first?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dburr:
Well in my case I definitely wiped data+cache+dalvik, but unfortunately it didn't seem to help, I'm still experiencing camera issues as I described earlier in this thread. Every other aspect of the phone appears to be working fine tho. Very odd.
[EVO 4G Android Development] saenz4931:
is this a new ota update?

i am running CM 6 rom.. what will it do if i update ot de odex or Odex..

whats the differences..

sorry for the question.. just new at this .. can some one give an example of it?

[EVO 4G Android Development] RichTJ99:
So to confirm, if I flash this & I already have full root (I am using fresh 1.0.1) & nand unlock, this will keep me unlocked with a stock rom?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jdjozwia:
i just rooted my phone using jiqqas guide which one of these roms is the right one for me, odexd or de odexd? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] GumboChief:
Whitslack gives you an up to date, perfect, rooted, stock, rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jdjozwia:
can someone tell me which one i should DL the de odexd or the other zip file
[EVO 4G Android Development] LudoGris:
Should be able to do either one. De-odexed will allow for easier app mods. Odexed is exactly like the original ROM. If you are using this ROM I am thinking it is because you want to stay as close to original as possible but with root and NAND access, so I would just use the Odexed version.
[EVO 4G Android Development] darkfluid:
I second this, if you are having problems after root, wipe and try this first, before using other custom roms:

NAND full access still works for me :D I included remount so try remount rw to gain r/w access
[EVO 4G Android Development] EtherealRemnant:
Are you sure? Adb remount and then try making a folder on /system. It sounds like this update breaks NAND.

This is what I get for browsing from the phone. Disregard previous post. Lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] freeza:
What? is his newest not deodexed?
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeykrim:
haven't seen any technical details yet:

this ROM wipes the kernel (boot partition) loads the new kernel (boot.img) which comes with the OTA

it wipes the SYSTEM directory and loads what looks like a complete copy of the /system directory (assuming a .6 software directory with the OTA applied on top) with the su binary copied into bin/su and xbin/su with suid perms.

hope that helps anybody who might be wondering what this .zip contains to understand how it might impact their current setup in a little bit more technical approach.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrmomoman:
Nice work.

I updated this with JoeyKrim's 1.08 ODEX ROM. Everything took fine. No broken widgets, etc.

Still kept root. Titanium backup has root access. Superpermission is fine. Wireless tethering is fine.

The only thing I noticed that is now I can't get a 4G signal in a good area. Always scanning. I am afraid that it's perhaps due to the radio not being updated.

Until I can get confirmation that the radio won't break anything I will hold off with just the

Software #:1.47.651.1

Build #: 1.47.651.1 CL95459 release-keys

The baseband is still 1.39.00.05.31

Anyone confirm that its okay to update the Radio?

Actually, I was curious to see what would happen. I'm gonna start messing around with downgrading to see if it locks you in forever or not.

Is anyone working on making a deodex'd version of this? I would if I knew how to, but I don't.

Make sure USB Debugging is enabled, hook it up to your computer and run `adb remount`

Correct me if I'm dead wrong please!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] SolsticeZero:
OK, so just to be clear, this does NOT include the radio? I did a complete wipe, flashed, and now my baseband shows up as 1.36.00.04.02. Did I do something wrong? BTW, I'm rooted through Toast's method and I still have NAND access.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gabesir:
thats what im waiting for too....:rolleyes: only matter of time. this guys are fast at patching stuff.
[EVO 4G Android Development] superlinkx:

[EVO 4G Android Development] b1indsided:
Yea I just flashed and it through me into a boot loop. I had to do a wipe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kpoz:
Did you just install from zip? I'm glad it works. I'm using the same ROM you are.

Also, is NAND unlock still intact?
[EVO 4G Android Development] furrelkt:
question... couldn't we flash back to Supersonic_1.32.651.1_rooted.zip, then run the EVO_1.47.651.1_Rooted.zip and we will still have full root and NAND? thank you for your info.

[EVO 4G Android Development] mrmomoman:
Yes - I just moved/pushed over the zip file and powered it down. Did the recovery and installed it from that.

Everything booted up fine. It does seem to transition smoother not necessarily faster. As I am sure they set the speeds to show transitions and not just instant change. I checked the ROM Manager and it showed root access. I checked Titanium Backup and it was able to get root access. My droid x keyboard is all good. Wifi Tether is good- I connected to it. Nothing out of place. As I mentioned only the 4G signal is now not connecting before it would. This I am guessing is from the Radio not being updated yet. Since the baseband/radio ties into so many things I do not want to mess with that update. I am tempted and if I new there was another phone for me to get from RS I would ;)
