On the mac version it doesnt seem to recognise the desire. I plugged it in recovery mode one time and an error came up about not being able to create some directory ..../.../.../sh I think. Running the apk I get an error saying it wasn't able to create the marker.

Running [Froyo FRF72] eViL De-SiRe

Ahh when it reboots to hboot i think i can just make out it says something about "wrong device" ... Which is probaly because im running defrost rom?

Or... now after reboot after hboot it says "waiting for superuser priviledges, this could take a minute or so" ..

Driver installed successfully
I tried the .exe which did identified my Desire (running on Defrost 1.3)
It rebooted in HBOOT pushed something then Rebooted the phone (I entered the PIN code and arrived on the home) but the .exe remains on "waiting for reboot" endlessly :'(
I'm going to try it again !

Edit : Second try, this time the program stays on "waiting for superuser priviledges (this could take a minute or so)" and I'm on the home, doing nothing...

It works.

But no info at all about this software.

Will be nice to know to update recovery without have some "magic" box you click on your desktop without know any clue about what is doing with your phone..

This is closed source with no info at all, and from my point of view no way better than htc software then..

Community is to share, not to make a magic app and seal it in fancy locked up pc application.

I'm at exactly the same place. 2 attempts and now stuck on waiting for superuser privileges.

I tried it so many times and the result is different for every try !
Now I know that when my phone shows the boot animation, the program's lost it and failed!! On my 6th or maybe 7th attempt it's stuck on "Flashing recovery image. Do not touch the phone" I hope it didn't break the original recovery.

Edit : This application's funny : after 10 minutes I did it : I touched the phone and shut it down : the program told "rebooting" (.... nope dude) then "Done" (I checked, nice try but no ^^)

Now I am stuck at "Flashing recovery image. Do not touch your phone!"
How long do I NOT touch the phone, btw I am still on my home screen.
for those who completed the process how long did it take??

EDIT: unplugged it and tried accessing recovery, it did not work.so it successfully destroyed my present recovery :(

I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be on your home screen. Everything seems to happen behind the white HTC pre-boot screen, when your phone start the boot animation, it failed, no matter what the program says.

Maybe I'm wrong, I've learned it from my 7 attempts

    HOWTO: Root & Flash a Permanent Custom Recovery Image in 1 Click With UnrEVOked

    I did not make UnrEVOked, I just make the guide :)

    Why?

    It enables you to root easily & have a custom recovery image installed (like Hero or G1) so that you can have access to Recovery anywhere. (& Backup SD EXT)

    Can I get Back?

    You can get back very easily by using an HTC RUU for your network which you can find here. Or use one of my OpenRUUs for Linux & Mac users.


    Requirements:

    A HTC Desire
    Patience!
    A PC, Mac or Linux (Linux or Mac recommended because you will have no problems with drivers or HTC Sync.)


    NOTE: When UnrEVOked 3.2x is released, This method WILL work with it.
    You can check UnrEVOked's Twitter feed to check if it has been released yet or join #unrevokedtest IRC here to see if there are any test builds avalible.
    (FYI, 3.2 roots FroYo)


    Follow my guide here to root & flash a recovery image! http://bit.ly/c53S7A
    (the guide is on my site so I can edit it easily and to prevent all the copies becoming out of date.)
