Anyone have the Borgey ROM? The inc.sodpit website stopped giving it out, and now I am stuck with a phone that has no signal, so I need to get back to the stock rooted ROM (I didn't do a backup, know I hate myself) anyone have it that they can put it up or send me? Thanks

Not a developmental thread..........thread closed and read rules before creating new threads.
Thank you
Hi all, not sure if this belongs here or in the Development forum, but here it lies for now. I've got my fully-stock Evo, I've not yet done the 6.28/6.29 update. It's basically just how I got it on launch day except for the Day 2 SD card update. I've been wanting to get into new ROMs (especially with CM6 building out now), but I want to have a way to get back to where I am now, pre-update.
1. Which recovery image should I keep handy to get back to where I am now?
2. Which is the best method to recover from any rooting/flashing back to stock?
3. I know I need to root, NAND-unlock, and then flash - Which is/are the best tutorial(s) for that?
I'm tech-savvy, I'm comfy with Linux, I'm just new to the scene. Yes, I've read tutorials here and at the wiki, I've searched, but there are so many options and I really feel they're poorly-organized for the newcomer. If you can help, please do or just PM me. If you can't or don't want to, please save your keystrokes. OSS is all about community.
Thanks crew! I want to learn so I can help around here.
My buddy got a rooted EVO on craigslist, wants to go back to stock, just feels better without root, doesn't have any interest in rooting, roms, etc.
I rooted my own evo so i have some exp with rooting the phone but was thinking i could just flash update.zip and it would update his phone and unroot.
but two update.zip i dl which were supposed to be official 2.2 did not work, one failed verification/signature cant remember excactly but will post if needed. the other one just gave a strange error.
Do i need to wipe the data/factory reset/or anything special?
Am i to hopeful assuming flashing update.zip will unroot? also if he gets OTA update tomorrow should he accept and will that unroot?
thanks in advance, i tried to do a search on unrooting and found a bunch of dead end options, i tried a few with no success. I was hoping the new update would be the easiest route.
here is a few i tried
sorry to new for links....
did not try this one yet, was hoping the OTA would avoid this:
any insight is greatly appreciated, i have tried to convince him to stay rooted but no luck. if anybody had success with one of the OTA 2.2 update.zip floating around and could share a link it would help me out, i used two different ones with no success.
For the love of god, please search and post in the right forum. There are tons of threads on this, including a new one this evening.

The thread above is even on this PAGE with the subject line of 'How To UN ROOT. TUTORIAL. Your Problems are solved!'.
HOW you missed that is incomprehensible.
PLEASE IF SOMEONE CAN MOVE THIS TO THE PROPER FORUM I WOULD APPRECIATE IT, I MESSED UP AND POSTED INCORRECTLY. thank you...
I searched the forums, I tried to post the links of many options available for unrooting the phone, I don't have the privileges to post links.
The one you posted I DID SEE I should have been more direct, I was looking to see if the new OTA update will update the phone to 2.2 and unroot the phone, since its not my phone i don't want to spend to much time on it or simply pass the info on to him.
I was NOT IN ANYWAY looking to be directed to another source for unrooting or lead to a link, what i could not find was if the new ota will be the easiest route. I had him try two run two of what I had believed were the newest ota update.zip with no success.
Please Please someone help me! First off, i apologize if this is in the wrong forum but i figured it would be the best place to get help. I just got an EVO a couple of weeks ago (came from an iPhone 4). I understand that root is almost like jailbreaking. I'm trying to update my phone with a new rom but evidently it can't be done without being rooted. I've searched and searched to be able to find a way to root the new sprint update 3.70.651.1 but i just cant find it! can some one PLEASE HELP! I've tried unrevoked 3 but to no luck...

The best place to get help is in the correct forum. There are lots of grumpy people here who would take the time to bust on you for posting in the wrong section, tell you to use the search button or post a link to lmgtfy.com.
Fortunately I'm still noob enough not to do that. Take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838448 and see if that helps you.
This one is also a good one to try:

You gots to know what you are doing. Read thoroughly!
i would for sure use the one suggested by atapia984. it is a little harder, but it is a lot less risky in the long run. also, rooting is not too much like jailbreaking, mostly because you can do everything you can with a jailbroken iphone on an evo without any hacking at all. rooting lets you actually replace the phone's system (and other partitions) with custom roms made by the talented devs here at the xda. you also have total control over hardware of the phone. if you are really stuck on the root tutorial, i might be able to help you out, or even give you a walkthrough if you are too afraid of nuking your precious evo.
