gingerbread root failed without errors

idfjvafnv · June 7th, 2011, 03:42 PM

Hey everyone I am having a problem with my evo, I have been searching all day and have come up empty.

Before we get into the you should have searched thing I did and my problem is different. I manually updated the first day gingerbread was out and it went through no problem, I didn't get any errors or anything. It rebooted once or twice then ran through some introduction thing and I thought I was all good. Today I was trying to watch some videos on Youtube and it was acting up, anytime I would click on a video it would play a random video, either a news story about a holocaust, a story about a tornado or the bad romance video.

After looking around and asking I checked my settings and I'm still on firmware 2.2 after I did the update. I figured I would just try it again but when I check for updates I get nothing it says everything is already up to date.

I'm very frustrated so any help is appreciated.

One more thing the phone is not rooted and I have updated a few of the smaller updates before with no problems
