Root Cannot find ROM when installing from .zip

[bridges31]

Thanks in advance for the help.

I just rooted my HTC Desire (CDMA) last night using UnRevoked and Revolutionary. I started to use the ROM Manager app but quickly deleted it after reading the warning on this site.

So now I'm trying to install a custom ROM that I found: [ROM-AOSP GRJ22] Oxygen v2.1.6 (Latest gingerbread, clean & simple) (GSM & CDMA) - xda-developers

I transferred the .zip file to my SD Card like the instructions say. Then I reboot into recovery mode and wipe all cache and user data, etc. Then when I click on install from .zip, the ROM that I put in there cannot be found.

I've also tried with several other roms and none of them show up when I get to that point.

Any help?? Thanks.

I apologize if this doesn't make sense. I'm a newbie when it comes to this stuff.

Also, when I used revolutionary with unrevoked, it did turn S-OFF.



Edit: NVM Im an idiot lol.

I didn't realize that I could scroll down even further when I was looking at the list of files in my SD card while in recovery mode. I was able to find it. Forgive my stupidity. Like I said, I'm a newbie.

we've all been there, so no worries. Can you tell me how things went with Revolutionary? As it's still in beta, i expect many of us here could do with some feedback?

So far so good. I installed that custom rom that I had in the original post. Everything seems to be working fine thus far with no complaints. However, I haven't even been rooted for 24 hours yet so we'll see.

I'll let everyone know if I run into any issues, but I'll say that once I figured out how to run revolutionary, rooting the 2.2 desire with unrevoked was easy.
