[GUIDE] How To Root/Unroot The Thunderbolt with Revolutionary
- Thread starter Cyber Warrior
- Start date
Anybody help please. First time root. Followed the steps and everything went great until it was time to boot into clockwork recovery. My Thunderbolt is now stuck at the HTC splash screen for the last 20 minutes. Any suggestions?
Never mind, I worked it out, thanks anyway

I'm sorry if this has been mentioned in the thread already. I rooted last July with the old auto method before revolutionary came out. My power button is now malfunctioning. Is it best to unroot and return to stock with revolutionary, or should I flash an RUU? I have seen people saying flashing an RUU should work, but I've not seen anyone that has done it. Thanks.
This does not say if the method of rooting without downgrade wipes the device or leaves all data intact. Can anyone who's tried it already answer this for me? thanks!
Just flash an RUU... its either a software glitch or its the hardware. If a fresh ROM/RUU doesn't clear it up than you know its hardware related and may need a new device.
Root without downgrade does not wipe data. Rooting in general does not wipe your data. Rooting the device just gives you root access and superuser permissions.
Flashing an RUU is like flashing a whole new ROM which requires the phone to be wiped.
I noticed in Nate Mil's Youtube video that his phone was on wifi. Does it matter what data mode the phone is in? Would be helpful/hurtful if data was turned off completely? Thanks.
Ok nevermind. I was oblivious during the part where Clockwork is dl'd and flashed, hence keep data turned on.

The link to the superuser zip file isn't working for me. Takes me to a web page that says "The page you requested is NOT AVAILABLE A general error has occurred." Suggestions?
I had rooted my phone then unrooted it after some months. Now that I'm trying to root it again, it says I'm in soff, however I'm not properly rooted.... Need help
Pcorpus21, you need to flash this through recovery http://downloads.androidsu.com/superuser/Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

I have a issue I hope you can help, by TB USB cable connection wont work and I need to go back to stock but I can not run the ABD commands because I have no debugging or usb connection, also I had a hard drive go bad and I just learned it had my 2.11.605.9 ROM Manger backup and all I have is my 2.11.605.5 backup in stock form.
Is there a way to flash 2.11.605.9 without abd? Can I restore 2.11.605.5 recovery and use the same process after system restore?
Can you assist me any with this issue?

Not really a way to remove revolutionary without usb

Thanks for the info, I have got everything back to stock 2.11.605.9 but bootloader, every time I run the final step to remove S-Off it keeps bypassing bootloader override.
I may have to check with the developer because the Revolutionary for 2.11.605.5 could be done without a usb port working...
Yeah that's the one thing you need a comp for
Wait whoa yeah you should ask them
