I honestly don't have a clue where to start with it..

Maybe start by reading this: http://developer.android.com/tools/debugging/ddms.html and then going from there. Now of course some of that stuff won't apply to us since we're not booted into android but maybe you can get a basic understanding of what it does..
ok but that assumes the device is communicating properly, which in android it does. while in recovery if you start ddms, it gives the device info and s/n like this "HTC1234567" - unknown", meaning nothing in ddms functions, so it seems to not be an error within how ddms or adb operates (my sdk is up to date as are my drivers - although if someone has working ddms I'd be curious what versions they have - maybe older?) but how recovery (or it's contained kernel?) allows for ddms to connect. Do you know of anyone (teamWIN or otherwise) that has any success with any ddms function on the evo 4glte? For me screenshot is important but overall way below other useful debugging tools in ddms. I'm here to help out in whatever way I can. Now I'm curious if it works in CWM, and if so how to figure out why/how it works there, and then implement that into twrp ftw.

I believe running an RUU would accomplish this, if you're looking to unroot. I'm not familiar with doing that, though.

No I just want to change the recovery only. I don't want to unroot the whole thing.
My phone started giving me issues, and I wanna take it back to them. And in case they decide to look into the phone, having a different recovery is a dead giveaway that my phone is rooted.

But if I can hide the recovery, then the other things they probably won't even know about.

They're not likely to boot into recovery. Stock recovery is useless for diagnostics. They'll load up bootloader sometimes, but that's it.

There is no flashable stock recovery as far as I'm aware. It could be created, but I doubt anyone has done it.

It's a 3G issue. Last time I went to the sprint store, the guy said "let me check something" and for some reason (which even I found odd), he booted it up into Bootloader, then Recovery.
(Seriously, don't ask me why. I have no clue why.)

When he saw TWRP, he asked me if my phone was rooted. I played dumb and said "my friend messed with it. I don't know what he did with it.)
Then he gave me the phone back.


Also, from the ClockworkMod Recovery thread, I tried flashing it through Fastboot and it failed. See below:



Wut does dat mean, kuwait?

Did you check your mobile data settings? Others have reported them getting messed up in the rooting process. I came across that in the panda s-off thread I think.
Hey bud, not exactly sure what I'm supposed to check in the settings?
But I can say that it happened around the time I did Lazy Panda S-Off. Not sure if that was EXACTLY when. (I don't wanna blame anyone whose fault it's not.)

In many cases lazy panda temporarily borks data. Just need to call sprint and they can reprovision your phone....over the phone.

Try settings, system updates, update profile. After that, try getting your msl, then dial ##3282#, enter the msl for edit mode, data profile, set active profile to 1 if it's 0. This happened to me after lazy panda and sprint customer service could not figure it out. Luckily I had my wife's phone to compare to and figured it out. No 3g data otherwise.

I'm stuck, because I encrypted my sdcard, TeamWin Recovery cannot access the internal memory or SD Card because I encrypted the sdcard. The message that popped up said that I must enter a password everytime I try to use it, otherwise it would not be accessible. I think it also renders the internal memory into "read only".

How do I get past the encryption?

Thanks.

You'll have to hard reset and you will lose your sd_ext contents.

So it just sounded fun to encrypt your SD? Just curious cuz I can't imagine why anyone would thunk it sounds fun, but maybe you were forced? More info.
