Rooting is phone specific or you could brick it (the guide you linked is ONLY for the evo). Follow these directions:

Read EVERY single word, don't just skim through it and you will be fine.

Seems like right now you are missing your recovery, so if you've already successfully unlocked, you just need to flash clockwork through hboot. Then continue with the process.
 
hopefully you are unlocked allready,or at least allready have the unlock_code.bin. if not,im not 100% sure if you will be able to unlock prior to re-installing a stock recovery. :eek:

sdraw is right,you have flashed an incompatible recovery to your device,hopefuly you have not damaged the phones filesystem beyond repair.

follow the linked guide to install a recovery,downgrade,and then flash the s-off exploit. feel free to post in that thread if you have questions :)
