What is not working? Did you follow the instructions that are stickied in the dev section (how to install custom recovery, roms, etc)

yes mate i did followed instruction properly
when i flashed vulerable recovery.sbf using rsd lite the process was successful but when i tried to go to recovery mode the custome recovery didint ran and i was having the normal recovery mode..i think that the sbf file i flashed was not the one i need?? plz help mate i have trashed my milestone even further need to install custom mod like anything
It happened with me too. You do this-go to androinani (might be spelled wrong) page on xda developers, its in motorola milestone android development and then download open recovery from there. Then connect phone to your pc and first extract files from the .zip you just downloaded and then put them in your sdcard. Then boot into normal recovery and press apply update.zip.
See if this works. I had the same problem but now I don't have it.
Note that you download open recovery from the website given on the androidaini page only and then try.
If you have any further problems PM me.

My question is where do i get this file from?
Thanks.

Go to the "rooted" link in my signature, and take the Eclair/Froyo version
Isnt the Su file in your signature for froyo? And isnt 2.3.3 gingerbread? or it works?
Thanks.

The file in the thread that you want is: su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip It works for Eclair, Froyo and Gingerbread.

Great, thanks alot for the help
im also rooting but grj22 build, what do i need to download to my sd before i unlock my boot loader?
To unlock your bootloader, you don't need anything on the sdcard. To continue with rooting, you would need to have a custom recovery on your computer and use fastboot to install it after you unlock it, then flash the zip that was mentioned above (which would need to be on the sdcard) to actually root your phone from the custom recovery.

Install recovery, boot into recovery, mount the SD from recovery, then move the file over to the SD using windows...

ok col, now heres the kicker...i flashed recovery-RA-nexus-v2.1.1.img as my recovery , and im pretty sure i put cryogen 7 on the sd so i fudged it up pretty good.whats the best recovery to flash i, if had gingerbread 2.3.4 which came ota au natural? also im finding the su-2.3.6.1-ef-signed.zip file either, anyone have a proper link to it?
If you're going to flash cm7 or ANY pre-rooted rom you do not need to bother with the su.zip. Just flash the rom from custom recovery.
i keep getting the no img wrong img message in fastboot when i try to hboot?
Fastboot is used to flash the custom recovery. The recovery flashes the rom.
I can't understand your post in the first place so I dont know what is your actual issue.
But read the wiki.

yes first rule is unlock bootloader...posts all around this forum
second is to install cwm recovery, without this u cannot root.
thirdly u need to flash the root.zip file in cwm to enable root itself. easy to do, check out this forum, ive added in some tutorials and guides to help u along the way
how to unlock bootloader
To unlock the bootloader when i visit htcdev.com and select my device,it says hboot update required...now what does that mean?
Exactly as it ssays, update your hboot.
Once updated u can unlock the bootloader. Its safe, we have all done it.
U will need your phone plugged into PC and on charge mode to do that.

can you elaborate on this? truer recovery's? we only have 2, I'm also assuming this is when adding recovery to the phone itself?
if you can get a photo or screenshot showing me it may help.
Sorry it was tryed a few recoveries. I have since manages to get root but now my hboot says main version is older and just wants me to reboot phone so can't.access recovery
Sent from my HTC Salsa C510e using xda app-developers app
You're hboot will be the latest. As for recovery we use 5.0.2.6 really. If its not letting you boot into recovery, tends to mean it's not installed correctly. Once recovery is there it can always be accessed. The root itself should have taken care of the basics and given u superuser access.
If u have working root. Go and install superSU from the market, its better. Works faster and has fewer problems. Just remember once u install it. Open the app and update the binary.
This should correct a load of root errors.
If u have to, reinstall recovery again. Could be a bad install.

Which hboot version do you have? When it is 1.08. then it is fine.
How did you flash your recovery? Maybe something went wrong in that step. The only working recoveries are here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1791707. Commonly used is the ClockworkMod Recovery and a description how to flash is also there.
Maybe do some photos of your screen to find out the problem.
Got root access just I can't I need to.get to hboot to install.recovery or.get to recovery Rom manager just takes me to the hboot screen where it says main version is older its bugging me

when you get to these screens post up your HBOOT version.
You cannot unlock your Bootloader without updating to HBOOT V1.08
right u don't need hboot to install recovery.
u need bootloader/fastboot to install recovery.
connect your cable. pc & phone
select charge option on phone
open a cmd prompt window (DOS)
now you need to follow the adb cmds.
myself i have it loaded as follows, change yours accordingly
c:/cd android-sdk
c:/cd platform-tools
adb reboot bootloader
if you cannot do this via cable then you require to remove the battery, reinsert, hold volume key down and power on.
select fastboot option.
this should take you to the bootloader
now if you have recovery placed in the correct folder ie platform-tools
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
this will install your recovery to your phone.

so i only want to install a gingerbread rom (maby this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997055) but i tryed the root methood you showed me and got to step two and dont know what too and it restored my phone to android 1.0 again can you help me out a little bit?
OK, if you are following that guide and completed step one then you should be at android 1.5
if not then you never finished step one. Alternatively if you are still on android 1.0 then you can do the telnet method, download it from the market
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
ok next?
so your on 1.0 and have telnet? if so then you need a recovery.img, amonra is what i prefer but use whatever. name it to recovery.img (if your on window it may hide extensions so name it recovery) and put on root of sd (not in a folder)
now open keypad, hit "enter" key twice and then type telnetd
now open telnet app and type
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
dont do anything but this and you may need to do it a few times, you know it worked when you see a ## if you get an error back out and do it again
no boot to recovery, update radio and spl then flash custom rom
you may then want to update recovery and radio again (2708+) do get newest roms

Untill you get an engineering spl you will flash through recovery, so go to the thread I linked you to earlier by idrifta and download the recovery.img, the 2.22.23.02 radio and danger spl after all is complete flash a compatible rom and boot to os, maybe super d or super e, or cyanogen 5, you pick just make sure its compatible.
After this all works let me know and I can hellp you update further if you want newer roms, or just read up on ezterrys thread 2708+ update

Well once yo have amonra recovery you can then upgrade radio then SPL to the ones I mentioned, doing another combo or doing the SPL before radio could result in a brick. Once this is completed and verified (boot while holding camera and check) then you can flash a ROM, and no ginger yoshi won't work until you upgrade further, for now search out one of the ROMs I mentioned and use one of them (probably need to flash appropriate gapps after ROM too)

If you are running 2.3.3, then you should be able to use the procedure at Revolutionary.io to gain S-Off and install CWM so you can then flash SuperSU or install a custom rooted ROM

S-Off means you have full access to your phone and can flash custom recoveries and ROMs.
If you don't understand something then I suggest you start searching and reading to gain knowledge and understanding instead of simply asking for links.

Then your phone already has S-Off so all you need to do is check to see if you have a custom recovery. If so, then you are all set to install a custom, rooted ROM.

No you cannot use Odin on a HTC. In order to get adb to work, you need to have the HTC drivers installed which is probably your issue.
There is a way to flash a custom recovery from the Bootloader using a PGIMG32.zip file on the sd card so that is an option that you could search for.

So here you go if at all you have been thru basics -- see if this works (Of Course this is with the fastboot) if you want it this way on second thoughts...
Install HTC Sync, then uninstall it ( you would only want the drivers)
Download Super User - downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip
Download Clockwork Recovery - download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
- On your C: drive, create an Android folder
- copy ClockWorkMod recovery and put it in C:/Android
- Put Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip at the root of your SD card
- Put the ADB (fastboot) files in C:/Android
- your files should be as
1 adb.exe
2 AdbWinApi.dll
3 fastboot.exe
Open cmd on your pc/laptop - bring it to C:/Android
You can now type just after the C:/android :
fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img
Now here it is -
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img
Now install your supeuser - If its required (hope not in your case)
From the bootloader screen, highlight "recovery" and press the power button. The HTC screen comes up for a while, then you're on the ClockWorkMod Interface.
- Volume down to select "install zip from sdcard".
- "choose zip from sdcard"
- Select the SuperUser zip you put on your SD (Superuser-3.1.3-arm-signed.zip)
- Reboot your phone.
Check if the above suffice..
