Once you take off the battery cover, it's on the bottom left hand side.
Yeah, should be able to format it using any device that takes a microsd that can also be mounted to a computer.
I did what you guys said. I took the sd card formatted it and put the files on it. The hboot does not seem to find it. I thought maybe it has to be .zip extension, so tried that as well. But still it doesn't find the PB31IMG.
Also tried fastboot flash recovery clock-recovery.5.0.20-inc.img but same result.
It doesn't find the img file and doesn't prompt to install.
[Edit] I also tried RUU PB3120000_Incredible_C_hboot_1.02.0000_4.08.605.2.exe that I found in one of the threads here. If I'm in hboot it does not detect the phone. So I went into fastboot. There it was able to detect the phone and go to the next step where it says "waiting for bootloader" and times out. At that time the phone is frozen in fastboot and I can't reboot bootloader and so the RUU times out.
first download and install these drivers: revolutionary drivers
then,download this small file:
mini-adb.zip
-unzip it,and place the unzipped folder onto the root of your C drive(not inside a folder)
-open a cmd window(with win 7,click start bubble,type "command" or "cmd" in hte search box)
-now change to your mini-adb directory(assuming you didnt chagne the name). type in the black cmd window that opened on your PC:
cd c:\mini-adb
-pull the battery in your phone for a few seconds. hold volume down,then power. hold them both until you see the white/colored writing hboot screen
-select "fastboot" from the hboot menu with the vol rocker/power button
-in your cmd window type:
fastboot devices
it should output your phones serial number. if so youre good to go. if not,youre apparently having a driver issue. i usually recomend these drivers from Revolutionary: modified htc drivers download and install the drivers(you should just have to run that file). afterwards,unplug your phone,plug it back in. make sure its in fastboot. as soon as you get a result from "fastboot devices" your ready to procede to the next step.
-in your cmd window,type(or copy/paste,is much easier):
fastboot getvar all
-copy the info that outputs here. right click in your cmd window,click mark,highlight it all in white. hit enter. paste the info here. it will help us know which ruu for you to run.
-make sure that you are in fastboot,not hboot.
what errors do you get in your cmd window?
Also I did the upgrade and found out about the locked radio the hard way but was able to downgrade it by putting the PB31IMG for froyo: PB31IMG.zip from page one's "go ahead and download list" of this thread on my sdcard and booting into recovery. Ran automatically and asked if i wanted to update, i clicked yes and it actually downgraded from 1.07.0000 back to 0.92. then I rooted using unrevoked3.
just wanted to point out unrevoked is not needed once you are s-off. you are easily rooted by:
Scotty,
No luck.
All the steps went through without errors, but when I do factory reset its the same reboot loop.
On the other site, someone mentioned corrupt partitions? Could this be the reason?
I tried flashing mtd0.img using fastboot flash misc mtd0.img but got a signature error.

......Reflash superuser as in step 7 just skip the unrevoked part as you are already s-off
