How come my bootloader wont see the pc36img.zip and give me the chance to update? I want to install a custom splash screen. BTW, all of the three evos I have in the family have this issue. My hboot is 0.93.0000 PLEASE HELP:(

Is it looking for it? If it's looking for it and doesn't find it then you either don't have it on the root of your sd or you named it improperly. Check to make sure it's named pc36img.zip and NOT pc36img.zip.zip which is a common mistake. If it's all 3 having the same problem I'm betting the name is wrong.

The name is fine. I see it in recovery and it says pc36img.zip When I boot to hboot it it does a scan, bout one second and nothing. All I see is fastboot, recovery, etc.. It has always done this. I dont understand. Why me?

After all this time I figured out what I was doing wrong. When you open the sd card on the pc and see a zip folder, that file is already a .zip . So if it is named pc36img.zip it is actually pc36img.zip.zip . I did not realize this. When naming a zip folder, you don't want .zip at the end of the name, It's automatically added. I know you probably know that but I'm sure there is someone who doesn't.
