Guest Alsajosora Posted September 23, 2010 Report Posted September 23, 2010 I have just tried to root my Desire using unrevoked 3 and it seems to go throught the motions but ends on an "internal error couldn't find misc" error message...... I am running a stock O2 Froyo Desire with HBoot .93.......Any ideas? I have a Win7 x64 box, and have all the correct drivers loaded for my phone. If I run unrEVOked I get the above error message......So my next step was to run in Virtual XP mode to see if maybe it was a X64 issue....Still the same error..... Last night I reset my phone to factory defaults and re-ran unrEVOked.....No joy....So after trawling through more forum posts I came across how to run unrEVOked from an Ubuntu live cd.....So I downloaded and burnt off the live cd, ran the script as specified (really neat and easy to use BTW) to get the latest version of unrEVOked and run it.......Guess what......Still the SAME error message......Methinks maybe something screwy with the O2 version of Froyo? Anyone else had the same issue? Are running an O2 rom?

Anyone else had the same issue? Are running an O2 rom? http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desi...not-installing/ how about trying to install the original stock rom 2.1 unrooted and then root it. It might be the new HBOOT version causing all that trouble. Go to the above link and on the first page you can find out how to do this.

Guest bpivk Posted September 24, 2010 Report Posted September 24, 2010 indeed it may be, however I want Froyo........;O)You'll have froyo as soon as you root and run a custom recovery you'll just have to take that extra step.
Guest Alsajosora Posted September 26, 2010 Report Posted September 26, 2010 (edited) You'll have froyo as soon as you root and run a custom recovery you'll just have to take that extra step. Welp, I bit the bullet and reverted back to 2.1, rooted with unrEVOked 3 (went through first time!!!) then hunted around for a PRE-ROOTED stock FROYO rom which I flashed through recovery....... I am now running a rooted version of Froyo and have just updated the radio to the latest one out there.......I still believe that it was the O2 rom that was preventing unrEVOked from working!!!!! BTW EVERYTHING I needed was here.....Might help some of you guys out!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696189 Thanks for all your input guys!!! ;O) Edited September 26, 2010 by Alsajosora
