Hi

I have followed the rooting instructions on The Unlockr website.

Ive got so far now I cant start to read other rooting guides but I have a problem a few people have had but cant find the solution.

The bootloader is already unlocked but when I rebooted the phone to locate the file install-recovery.sh - it was nowhere to be found.

I have downloaded root explorer and still cant find it.

What is this file and why would it not be on my phone?

Thanks for your help in advance

Hey there,

Have you checked the /etc and /system/etc directories? If the install-recovery.sh file isn't there for some reason and you can access ClockworkMod Recovery after you reboot, then no worries - that file is just there to restore the stock recovery every time you reboot. Most custom ROMs don't include it.

Hope that helps :)
