Hi!

On behalf of the unrevoked team, we're proud to announce the new release of unrevoked -- version 3.3. This version adds support for HBOOT 2.02 and 2.10, and also adds support for the new OTA, 3.70.651.1.

You can get it at our site, http://www.unrevoked.com/recovery/ .

New in this release is ClockworkMod 3.0.0.2. We and Koush have been working hard on getting ClockworkMod all set and safe on EVO 4G; ClockworkMod is now using the latest EVO 4G kernel, for one, and now has nandroid options to back up your WiMAX keys. It also encodes your phone's serial number in the WiMAX backup, which greatly reduces the risk of restoring the wrong WiMAX image to the wrong phone. Please try it out!

We'll be watching this thread off and on. There are a few known glitches; carefully read the frequently asked questions in the "More Info" section, linked from the page above.

Thanks for everyone's support and assistance -- and have a happy new year!

joshua

unrevoked

UPDATE:

I just pushed out 3.31, which fixes a bunch of small issues that people were having, and backs down to Clockwork 2.6.0.1. This adds support for Amend scripting back in, but keeps all the good changes from 3.0.0.2 -- WiMAX backup, and the new kernel with support for new hboot partitions. I tested this pretty thoroughly -- I fully erased my WiMAX partition with erase_image wimax (don't try this at home!), and then restored it from a backup I took with Clockwork 2.6.0.1. My keys were intact, and my 4G still works. More detail about the changes can be found in the changelog. Thanks!

You guys are the best!!!!!!!!:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] zikronix:
so im guessing you fixed the recovery. because in my testing with the new version of cw...on older hardware with the new hboot it wouldnt back up squat...and there have been reports of people noting being able to flash things with the new version on new hardware or not being able to boot.

thanks for the hardwork
[EVO 4G Android Development] jdub1911:
Sweet! will be trying this on my new EVO tonight... will update how it goes.

Thanks guys for the hard work!
[EVO 4G Android Development] AGeleff:
This is great news.

I'm going to hold off on doing anything for now until the flashing issues are completely figured out and there is a solid 3.2 build out.

Thanks for all of your hard work guys.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bkrodgers:
Is the new version setup to install the old 2.5 version of Clockwork if you use it against an older partition structure? Word is that Clockwork 3.0.0.2 is not backwards compatible with the old partition structure.
[EVO 4G Android Development] zikronix:
didnt work in my testing...but i am just one person. all though i got the same results across 3 evo's two old 0003 and one newer 0003 (with the new camera)

[EVO 4G Android Development] evohog:
Quick question, I don't have 4g in my area yet so I haven't gotten 4g connected yet. So should I flash the new wimax radio and start my new restorations from there or just leave it as is and keep my old backups along with whichever new ones I create?
[EVO 4G Android Development] davidc23:
did this and it worked :) use it guys make sure you follow everything. Unrevoked team cwr gave me some problems while rebooting it gave me lines on my screen it looks scary but it works so i just switch to amon recovery anyways thanks :)

just did my wife phone on a mac with snow leopard and it worked just fine. the trick was that i had debugging already enabled when i loaded unrevoked so i disabled it then enabled it while still on unrevoked and it worked.

yes superuser is there, it prompted me to click allow it wouldn't work, but my coworker had z4root installed, so I opened it and and it re-root, it said it was going to reboot, it stayed like that for about 5 mins. I manually rebooted and then bam...everything started to work.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
You're getting the version numbers and products mixed up. There's actually 3 diff tools at play here.

Unrevoked3 is at 3.31. This is just the tool that uses an exploit to get root. Once you have root you no longer care about the program or whatever build it may be at. Forget it ever exists. Forget about v 3.31

ROM Manager is at 3.0.0.2 I don't know of any reason or problems at all with older builds. This tool simply automates a lot of the recovery and flash tasks you could otherwise do manually. It will also keep track of the recovery program you have flashed and let you flash others.

ClockworkMod was "downgraded" to 2.6.0.1 ... and is the actual recovery app that is flashed by ROM Manager. For about a week, Koush had released a series of 3.x.x versions that removed some legacy code and it caused a lot of headaches when flashing certain kinds of zips, so he "went back". ROM Manager recognizes 2.6.0.1 as the latest build so it will suggest you to flash it if it finds any other build. This was the part most people had problems with ... so some folk will flash RA Recovery instead (also flashable directly from ClockworkMod without even a reboot).

I would go ahead and follow ROM Manager's lead and "update" to 2.6.0.1 (even though it's technically a downgrade). If you're not familiar with the different zip formats and would rather not be ... it's worth the 30seconds it takes to press the flash option in ROM Manager and not potentially run into the problems some had while on 3.0.0.x

I couldn't comment on TB ... as I've never used that app. Sometimes when you have weird access problems like that you can try one of two things:

1. In Super User remove the TB access then re-run TB so Superuser re-prompts.

2. Use the "Fix Permission" utility in ROM Manager to see if maybe something got it's permission tweaked.

Just flashed my brand new evo that i got today and everything is working fine, installed myn's ROM and i'm in heaven..thats unrevoked team!
[EVO 4G Android Development] nacienleongto:
Hi, I'm hoping you or someone can help me. This is my question... I'm rooted , I used Unrevoked everything on my EVO is stock, I'm still on software 3.29***** I will like to get the new Ota 3.70***** Do I need to unroot my phone, apply the new software update and then root again with the new unrevoked 3.31? I think I answer my own question but I just want to double check. By the way, I've reading a lot and looking a lot but I couldn't find it anywhere. Thanks a lot!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] LifeInTheGrey:
Actually there is a rooted stock rom available in the development section that is for 3.70. I would link you except I am on my phone... bit look for Sprint Lovers rom and ye shall find what ye seek.

Ride that evo train
[EVO 4G Android Development] glenwill:
I just ran the latest unrevoked3, and I get "Backup CID is missing". Can anyone enlighten me as to what this means, and how I can resolve it?

Did the root work if I got this? When I reboot to the hboot screen I see "SUPERSONIC EVT3 SHIP S-OFF", but when I run "adb shell", I get a $, not a #.

I have an Evo hardware version 0004, hboot 2.10 and build 3.70.651.1.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
1. To see your partition layout You need to open up your terminal and run a Cat command that will show your partition sizes. I'd type it out but the exact command escapes me atm ... honestly there are a few threads out there on it.

2. As of CWM 3.0.0.x (including 2.6.0.1) it already identifies and adjusts for the various partition sizes so that is a non-issue.

3. Information is misleading on GB: CWM 2.5.x and newer will flash GB just fine. Maybe Koush means he wont support it? I'm not certain why he made the statement he did (other than I think he's sick of supporting two scripting branches) but people have been flashing GB ROMs on CWM for awhile now.
[EVO 4G Android Development] nacienleongto:
Thanks for replying tquetano!!! I appreciate your help. But to be honest, I don't want to flash another ROM, I'll like to keep using unrevoked. So do u think I should do what I said on my post? Anybody else can help? Thanks again!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] linuxman111:
Thanks Justin. I did as you said and now my clockworkmod is downgraded. Was flawless.

So, 1 problem down, 1 to go. Let me give you my symptoms.

Evo Hardware version 003

I ran unrevoked with no problems.

S-Off

I can run wireless tether with no problems. I grant it root access and it works fine.

I can also run a terminal and gain super user access.

HOWEVER,

When I tried to use 'grep' it said it wasn't found.

When I try to use titaniaum backup, it says it can't get root. I can see an entry in my root app that says it has root, but the application says it can't gain root.

When I tried ROM manager to fix the permissions, it said it couldn't get root as well, but I can see in the superuser app that it has permission. I ran the fix permissions from the recovery and it ran fine.

One user above said they had the same issue and ran z4root and it seemed to fix this issue. I'm wondering if I'm missing some or all of my root libraries.

I was going to give the z4root app a try. What do you think I should do? I have a kind of half root. :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Justin.G11:
I'll be honest: if you can reboot into recovery and have S-OFF, I wouldn't sweat trying to make sure your system partition was OK or waste time on your root status of the stock ROM. Instead I'd make suer you can do a backup then just jump into a ROM that looks interesting as that will replace all of it anyway. If you kind of like the stock ROM, start easy with something like Sprint Lovers, Myn's, or Fresh (they are all based off the Sprint Stock ROM). If you want to try something a little more unique, go for CynaogenMOD or MIUI.

Don't sweat what you're about to overwrite ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] glenwill:
Update: I tried to boot into recovery, and I got the screen with a red triangle and exclamation mark.

I tried to run unrevoked several times, with the same result.

I then tried to go through the manual steps at this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=829045

But when I get to this command:

./data/local/flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd-eng.img

I get this error:

mtd: read all-zero block at 0x00000000; skipping

I assume that is due to whatever is left over from the failed attempt with unrevoked.

Anyone got any suggestions on how to proceed?

Should i run 3.31 after running 3.3

i rooted my EVO with version 3.3.

Should i now run 3.31 or will that harm my phone?

also what was wrong with 3.3?
[EVO 4G Android Development] reverendrhino:
Good question..
[EVO 4G Android Development] vinnyroo:
i just read another thread that said to go to rom manager and go to the very bottom and install cwm and it will recognize 2.x is the latest version. so it will downgrade your cwm

hboot 2.10 OTA 3.70

You had to have missed a step. It runs flawlessly for anyone who follows the directions exactly. Remember if you are on windows there are a few steps you must do before running the program.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Smoke362:
maybe i missed a post, but will this work for new evos with 3.7 installed already? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] generalExpert:
Dude, you did miss a post... the very first one. It tells you right there that there is support for 3.70. Yes, 3.70 is supported. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] blackbeltrk:
Need just a little help and understanding .

Do you have to unroot frist if you already used unrevoked 3 in the pasted. Im rooted now with unrevoked 3 but not the most recent build ? also i have cw 2.5.0.1 now will my old nandriod backups still work if i upgrade to the 3.31 verison with the newer cw ? Thanks alot for any help !
[EVO 4G Android Development] davepadgett:

will it work for evo on 3.30.651.3 running hboot 2.2 on a mac computer running snow leopard hardware version 0004
[EVO 4G Android Development] iaccax:
error??

im getting "error:failed to get root. Is your firmware too new?"

when i run unrevoked!! but i did get a new evo yesterday cause my old one i got wifi errors!! can anybody help!!! my phone just rested like normal like nothing happened!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] generalExpert:
unrevoked is only to be used one time. Once your rooted thats it. Forget about it. The only reason new releases come out is to support newer devices and roms.

Stick with 2.5.0.1 or the newest 2.6.0.1 of Clockwork. If you download "Rom Manager" you will be able to see the latest versions. I believe at the moment 2.6.0.1 is the latest fully functional. I am running 2.6.0.1 CWM and have performed wipes, flashes and backups with no problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] blackbeltrk:
Hey thanks for the reply. I have rom manager downloaded but never really like using it . However i did flashed the new 2.6.0.1 from rom manager and rom manager says that it has flashed the 2.6.01 verison .However when i go to hboot then recovery it says im still on clockwork 2.5.0.1 not 2.6.0.1 . So my question is why is rom manager telling me im on clockwork 2.6.0.1 but when i go into Hboot it says clockwork recovery 2.5.0.1 Any idea's here ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] generalExpert:
That's strange. I know when I was using rom manager I could not flash back down from 3.0.x.x although it was saying it was... but when I manually flashed 2.5.0.1 I was able to successfully flash up to 2.6.0.1 from Rom Manager...

Having Trouble with unrevoked

I have tried to load unrevoked via my desktop (Mac 10.6) and via the mobile download. The Mac application will not recognize the phone and I've tried all the tips and tricks there. The computer does see the phone via other applications or if I put it in disk mount mode, but the unrevoked app never finds it.

I can download the mobile version of the app directly to my phone and I can install it (to a degree). However, when I click start I get a message in all caps that flashes for a fraction of a second:

ah fargh it couldn't create the goddamn marker

Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ThaFranchize15:
unrevoked is stuck at "waiting for device". I have installed the drivers for windows. I have enabled USB debugging. And ran the unrevoked.exe as ADMIN. What else can I do to get this to run?
[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
If you could I would try it on a windows machine to see what error you get. Also we did a couple phones on a Mac but he also had the windows environment on his phone and it was just plug and play. Hope you get it this process is very simple as long as you do everything they say right.
[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
I would assume by now you got it to work. If not I will try make sure the right drivers are there and start over.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bizdady:
ANyone figure out how to get the Backup CID is missing issue fixed? Trying to root my replacement hardware 3 with 2.02 hboot rooted with new unrevoked and keep getting that error.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bizdady:
Got this fixed by running the broken recovery guide since Unrevoked left me with S-off but nothing else.
[EVO 4G Android Development] summermac:
Thanks!

I ran the windows version of unrevoked using Parallels - it was a bit tricky since I only have XP on my Mac, but I was able to get through it and my Evo (Froyo) is now rooted. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] dave83uk:
Hi, don't know if it is the same with evo but a few people are having the same issue with the desire, trying it without the SD card in appears to fix it, alternatively try a factory reset first as may be an app interfering. Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
Glad to hear you got it done... welcome to Rootville!
[EVO 4G Android Development] playya:
how can you do that when it pushes all the important files to the sd card...
[EVO 4G Android Development] dave83uk:
As far as I am aware unrevoked doesn't need the SD card, just replace it afterwards

[EVO 4G Android Development] momegao:
Unrevoked again...

Hi. I have some friends that I rooted their phones with unrevoked in the past. Now they want to have the new OTA from Sprint. They just want it stock but rooted. I was looking into installing it manually, but it seems that I need to wipe the phone, something they don't want. My question is the following:

Can I accept the OTA directly in the phone, and then use this new unrevoked to make it rooted again?

Do you know any other method of making that which doesn't require wipe? Like for example, un-root, accept update and then root with unrevoked?

Thanks in advance.

Freshed Evo 3.5.0.1.....!!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jiggy79:
I was in your friend's same situation. I was rooted and simply downloaded a rom that has the current OTA, you might have to update the radios manually but they'll be update to do. The rom I chose was the Sprint's Lover Rom All-in-One and it works very nicely. You can unroot, then update the OTA and root all over again but that's just too much work.

[EVO 4G Android Development] jiggy79:
How does one go about updating your clockwork version as I have ver 2.0.0.5?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lonlawrence:
There are no "correct drivers" for mac. Everything is automatic, nothing extra to download like in Windows. I've done it many times.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lonlawrence:
I had that happen when I first tried unrevoked on my new Evo. Come to find out, there was a newer Unrevoked (I had just downloaded Unrevoked the night before, but that night a newer one came out). I downloaded the newest one and then my new Evo rooted flawlessly. Seems I had too new of updates on the new phone for older Unrevoke to work.
[EVO 4G Android Development] r.storm85:
Just install titanium backup on there phone..back up all apps and data...then install sms backup and restore...backup all there text messages...then have them save all there mms pictures to the sdcard. Now wipe and install the stock rooted ota. U dont have to update the radios unless you want to...it may help with battery or might not u never know. I personally never update my radios. U can really mess up your phone by doing this. Now go to titanium backup and restore all apps with data...then go to sms backup and restore and restore the text messages..have them setup their home screens and ur done..and they have all their settings and apps..

Note. Sometimes you have to restart your phone after using titanium backup to get the settings there

Evo - Myn 2.2 RLS 3 - Clockwork - HBoot .76
[EVO 4G Android Development] lonlawrence:
MyBackup Root is even easier. It will back up sms messages, apps and data, photos, etc... EVERYTHING on your phone and save it to you SD card. One app that does everything.

Well I just unrEVOked my white 0004 2.10 Evo flawlessly, and thank you guys!!! I did notice upon exiting CWM that the screen went ballistic with multi color lines .... I read Ra recovery test edition is doing that too....

But to the guy wanting to accept OTAs, you might actually not be able to, at least with Ra 2.2.1...... on the phone I handed back in I tried to accept the update to 3.70 so as to return phone stock, but Ra recovery halted the update due to the zip file not being signed. If CWM doesn't require a signature, then yea it should work.

Been trying to root my o2 Desire all day long, always fails with the same,

"internal error:failed to unlock nand flash".

I have tried this in every possible permutation, with the phone in charge only, as a disk drive, with HTC Sync installed, with it uninstalled, on Slax (Linux) and Windows 7 (x36), running unrevoked as admin, sim card in and out, SD card in and out etc etc etc.

I made a post in anothr thread but no one has replied, is there any solid reason why I keep getting this error?

it didnt work with new evo from replacement
[EVO 4G Android Development] teh roxxorz:
Initially it does check for a signature, but right before you "install zip from sdcard" there is an option for signature verification, highlight and select it to toggle it off.
