I did unrevoked, but i'm not sure if I'm missing a step. Running radio 2.15.00.07.28

Boot into the bootloader (power+volume down) & the top line should say:
INCREDIBLEC XC SHIP S-OFF

I know you're talking about s-off but the development section is for releases not questions pertaining to development.

Thank you. Appologies for posting in the wrong thread. I'm still getting an error using Rom Manager to install anything. So, I don't know what could be wrong if I rooted it properly.

 

[poontab]

It's all good.
I wouldn't use rom manager for anything. You're able to access clockworkmod recovery, have super user permissions, & your bootloader says s-off? Also what are you wanting to run?
We can walk you through all this but I need some info.

Believe it or not, I am familiar with doing everything manually, downloading the zip I want, moving it to my SD card, and then flashing it. I just like using Rom Manager because it generally installed things in a one-touch all-in-one type deal. I was simply trying to update to the latest CM7 nightlies build. I'm going to try out SR4.2...I love his work, and Athena is still the best rom I ever used. I'm kind of married to certain features of CM7 though, but I think SkyRaider incorped them into his Rom.

^ good!

....You're able to access clockworkmod recovery, have super user permissions, & your bootloader says s-off?....

^ what about this?

 

[w4lly]

Yea, I have full root. I just thought that the S-OFF was the one thing that's not really in your face noticeable.

OK before you flashed the ROM I assume you wiped data/cache but did you wipe the system & boot partition in CWM's (not accessible through RM) mount menu?

 

[w4lly]

Hrm. I always do factory wipe / data/cache. Not sure about the boot partition. I'm pretty sure I do, though.

 

[poontab]

The boot & system partition formats are necessary when going from *vastly* different ROMs like Sense anything to AOSP & can only be done through CWM's mount menu so you'd know if you'd done that.

2 ?s what CWM version are you on & this error you received is from RM or CWM?
Edit 1 more what rom are you on now?

Isn't that normally wiped when installing a new rom? I was a crack flasher when I had an INC and never had to manually format them, no matter what rom I was installing or coming from.

I've wiped every partition except boot. I won't touch that one at all. The computer technician in me just says "That feels like a bad idea", as does the logical part of me. Like others have said, check your bootloader (also known as hboot) screen. Power it on holding power+vol down (I'm sure you knew that, but sometimes a little reminder isn't a bad thing) and look at the top.

^Boot partition = kernel. Feel free to wipe it you just won't be able to run android until you flash another ROM or Kernel.

OP disappeared so I assume he figured out. Coming from stock (or Sense to AOSP or vice versa) you need to format everything (system) before flashing a ROM.
