Was using my dad's Desire (I have my own), and thought I would do him a favour by rooting it, so he could backup. I rooted using unrevoked 3.21, and did a backup using ROM Manager. I've heard this is a bad idea, but I never had a problem with my Desire using ROM Manager, and an older version of unrevoked.
Anyway, after the backup, I tried to restart, and it got caught in a boot loop, never getting past the pink circle. (My dad has a t-mobile, HBOOT 0.75, have since upgraded to 0.93 with android 2.2) .
My old backup Roms that I did for my desire work fine on his phone, so I have been able to do the above, but I really wanna get his old system back.
I've wiped the cache, done a full wipe, re-rooted, loaded the backup from Rom Manager, and from recovery, and nothing seems to work. The best I can get is looping from the splash screen, but another variation is getting stuck on the pink arrow circle.
So, what is the deal with unrevoked and ROM Manager not working together, when they used to be fine with old versions? Do I have to now backup by recovery alone? But more importantly, is there any way to get my dad's backup back, or is it gone forever?
Please help,
