30-32

Dont do the commands while at the white screen. Do them while booted to cwm recovery. You dont have to be any where special in recovery, just in it. Since the phone wont boot anytime it says to do a cmd while booted, instead do it while in recovery.
30. Set your phone to charge only.
N/A, turn phone on to white htc incredible screen Boot into cwm home screen
31. Open the command prompt on your PC and navigate to the same folder as your fastboot files in the step above for example: cd c:\android-sdk\platform-tools\ or C:\adb
Done
32. Type the following into the command prompt pressing the enter key at the end of each line:
Code:
adb shell
You should get a dollar sign $
I get ~ #, I continue and type in the next step su
Code:
su
You should now get a pound sign #
Problem, see cmd screenshot, /sbin/sh: su: not found
~ #
Thank you again for your help troubleshooting my phone, maybe it would be easer if I just flew into ORD :laugh:

If you have the pound sign you don't need to type su. You can continue.

30-32 2nd attempt plus some more

If you have the pound sign you don't need to type su. You can continue.

Done
32. Type the following into the command prompt pressing the enter key at the end of each line:
Code:
adb shell
You should get a dollar sign $
I get ~ #, I skip su because I have the the pound sign and continue with the next step
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image
Problem, see cmd screenshot,
No such file or directory
~ #
I skip cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image because It isn’t working and continue anyway with the next step
chmod 755 /data/flash_image
Thinking its working I continue with the next step
/data/flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd0.img
Does it look OK? on the cmd screen?

Continuing on despite not knowing if things are OK
Modified for my application(no boot up)
#32 - Do as it says.
Unknown status awaiting info from leaders(you guys)
#33 - Just put the file on the sd how ever you got the others on there.
Done
#34 - Shouldnt be necessary.
wasn’t
#35 - Skip it.
Skipped
#36 - #45 - Do as they say.
36. At this step you have 2 options you can pull the battery of your phone and put it back in then hold volume down and pres power to enter the bootloader or you can go back to your command prompt and type the following:
Code:
exit
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
pulled battery
37. When your bootloader is done loading press volume up to flash the PB31IMG.zip
Went to hboot and PB31IMG.zip started loading(see screenshot)
38. Your phone will reboot the bootloader once during this process, don’t be alarmed just wait for it to finish, when done it will ask you to press volume up to restart the phone
Never happened
39. When done remove the PB31IMG file from your sd card
removed tried to reboot locks up at the white htc screen, retired for the evening
40. Congratulations you are now back to stock 2.2 froyo
Working on it
At some point the cmd screen went back to c:\adb>
Did a dir for the heck of it

In #32 you need that file flash_image in /sdcard otherwise the next part fails. Make sure the /data/flash_image command succeeds. You might want to wait for cmlusco as he has more exposure to phone recovery and is usually better at explaining.

Ok sounds great, thank you for the info I need for #32, I'll defiantly will be waiting for cmlusco. He's been instrumental in this whole recovery of my phone.:good:
I can’t wait to run his rom and your mod, you guys beyond incredible!
