[EVO 4G Android Development] FastRX8:
That is correct. It's telling you that ClockworkMod latest available is 2.5.0.1 but that you are currently running RA 1.7.0.1

The reason you get the

/!\

is because you didn't do the full root process.

You don't have NAND unlocked. It's not crucial now if you're running a custom rom that works for you. However, next time you go to flash a custom rom, you may want to start the rooting process all over again to make sure you get NAND Unlocked.

Glad to be of service. :)

PC36IMG.zip file you're using is not complete. Check the file you downloaded w/ the file size of the pics I posted in the tutorial. They need to be the same. If it's different, then the file didn't download correctly or is corrupted.

I check the download links about once a week and they still work fine for me. I may try to find some other places to mirror it though since many people are having issues w/ it.

Same response I gave to wsschappell

Yes, SimpleRoot does basically what I describe in this thread in Section 5. The nice thing about SimpleRoot is that you don't have to type and the files are put on the card for you w/ the correct names. Eliminating most user errors.

Glad it worked. See everyone, this tutorial does work if the files are downloaded correctly. :) I'll try to get some mirrors up for those that have issues.

I think most people familiar w/ adb push and that have android sdk installed wouldn't really need this tutorial. It was written for someone who knows nothing about android. Also, for what it's worth, I've never used adb push to move a single file and I've rooted about 30x's. In fact, I didn't even know how to use any adb commands for the first 2 weeks of having the evo but I rooted it on the day it was released.

That's when I first posted this tutorial on another site.

I'll do some research and post a link at a rooted 1.47 if there is a stable one. I've never tried one and I didn't want to steer people in the direction of a bad rom. If there is a stable rooted stock 1.47, I'll add the link.

Glad everything worked out. Yes, the files must be the same size.

That issue has nothing to do w/ "this root." Apparently, as I read in another thread, Facebook made some changes to their security on their servers and it causes the link to be broken.

So, even if you went a bought a new evo today that was stock, you'd have the same issue.

Start the rooting process over. Also, if all you do is root the phone and don't install a custom rom, you'll be missing the Superuser Permissions icon. Wireless tethering looks for that icon when you start the app. If you install a rooted custom rom or even just the rooted version of the stock sprint rom, the SU icon is included and the apps will work.

No it will not. You need section 5 or Simpleroot method.

He's correct, but you won't be full rooted and you'll have issues later because you're on a stock rom that is not rooted and you have Superuser permissions. Rooting the phone and not installing a rooted rom will cause problems.

You're best bet is to start from the beginning. Flash back to stock using the shipped roms

I would try to flash to 1.47 then run the Simpleroot method.

Here's 2 mirrors for the eng-PC36IMG.zip file - ftp://ftp.relentlessaddictions.com/PC36IMG.zip

1st - SU permission screen will always be blank until you open a program that ask for permission. When you allow or deny permission to that program, it's info will be added to the SU app. When you used unrevoked, it add the SU icon and a list of pre-determined apps and gave them permission.

For whitslack's method to work, you need to have the eng-PC36IMG.zip file flashed already. So no, you can't replace the file in this step for his file. You need to have full nand unlock 1st then you can use whitslack's.
