so yesterday i rooted my sprint3d, but was unable to install a rom. rooted using the HTC method (yay watermark fro something which has only half worked.
what works: phone works fine as does the sd card. i can do all i want from apps to downloads to whatever else. i can write files to the sd and do everything else i should other than below. also my su program works fine and allows permissions to the apps
What does not:
i can not install a rom
-clockworkmod does not seem to fully exist. it says it is updated to version 5.0.2
-i can not boot into recovery. i have tried to access it from ROM manager, quick boot, and by holding the vol down while booting... the first two methods only reboot the phone normally, loading the os instead of the manager. the third works normally until it scans the sd which i will go into detail a bit down.
so when i try to access from the vol-down method it starts normally where it does a scan od some kind. it then tells me
if i remember correctly there should be options to use fastboot and stuff, but there is none of that. i would try to flash a new recovery like twrp but i know no way to flash any image without access to fastboot or a functioning cwm
i have also tried the other 3 versions of cwm from rom manager, but none of them work.
i made backups like i was supposed to, but have no idea how to find/use them since im new to android
