Root Should I Switch To Amon Ra?

[MizzouBrent]

you hear what it did to Ocn's phone?

I am going to give that one a wide berth for a while...

Ocn is not the only one...some were bricked. No twrp for me when we have a flawless recovery as it is. Absolutely no good reason to run something other than ra considering how crucial recovery is on a rooted android device.

I agree!

I concur.

Does it look like this?

Yeah, it looks just like that. I did the nandroid whilst flashing a new kernel last night and I thought I was stuch in recovery cause it wasn't giving me an option to go back to the main menu. I was so close to starting a panic thread until my kitten jumped on the screen and pawed the back button. Super cool!

And it looks like TWRP is done, they will be helping Koush and ClockworkMod

Yeah I saw that. No point for us evo users anyway. Agrabren is still working on his Phoenix recovery though

Has anyone noticed that 3.11 doesn't restore correctly? Every time I restored a rom it's slower than before. I wipe everything (except sdcard) before I restore and it still cranks out a slow rom. I even backed up a rom with 3.11 just to restore it after the back up and it runs slower. I'm concern because my phone has developed a clicking noise once the splash screen starts. Everything starts up fine but it makes that noise now. If anyone has experienced the same issue please let me know a solution because I haven't found anything related to this issue.

never heard of noises for the splashscreen. weird. well i learned the hard way with trying other recoveries. you might want to give amon ra2.3 a try if you have not already.

Yeah, I went from amon ra 2.3 to 3.11 a couple of weeks ago but I think I'm switching back to 2.3 now. I read that story about switching recoveries and man I think I would soil myself if that ever happened to my evo.

I use 3.06, but I have had that clicking noise on my phone for a while. I always just figured it was the phone checking it's hardware and software and that it might be the camera being checked by the system. But I don't have a problem with 3.06 I think its my favorite version of the recovery.

Amon RA 2.3 until death for my Evo.

twrp 2.0 boinked my phone.....so yeah i'm not straying from amon ra 2.3 again. unless there is an official update from amon ra. i learned my lessons the hard way.
