How to unroot Mytouch Slide?

I'm considering rooting my slide and was wondering if there was a method to reverse it for whatever reason? I know the original MT3G had the sappimg file you could load onto your sd card and it would automatically revert everything back to stock. I havent followed development for the slide much but have recently been reading up on it more. Thanks in advance!

Check The Slide Rom Bible... the answer you are looking for is in that thread. And in the future, this would go in the Q&A section.

Thanks man. I just figured since it was somewhat related to Android Development that asking here would be ok.

get my point if any of those where read before OP posted there would in fact be no new thread

Seeing how he used Google to get here, he might have never used this type or any type of forum before. If that is so, he probably didn't even know about stickies. Either way, now he knows.

yeah but its about the OP and where and just the plain principle.... OP has been a member since AUG 2009 ... if one years + thread membership and over a hundred posts... maybe he can read, maybe search and all but now we are all happy and everyone knows how to use search! Its great to be a part of such an awesome community! But please really search and when it says don't post a question in a section that probably means you shouldn't for a good reason. Thanks

Sorry thread police.
I actually tried searching before I posted. Prior to me staring this thread, the only results that appeared on Google were for the original MyTouch. Had I found the answer there I would've never asked.
Thanks again

[Q] ETA on APK version of the Root Exploid?

dont mean to sound like a ****, but can anyone give me and ETA?
im a complete noob when it comes to the current root process and im much more familiar with the APK process, like the one with the MT3G.
so can any devs give me an ETA?
sorry to sound like an asshole

As far as I know, no one is developing a "one click" apk to root.

Correct. My policy: if you're unable to follow the simple directions currently used to root the Espresso, you have no business rooting your handset in the first place. Great root comes with great responsibility. Having a little background knowledge should be a prerequisite.

Moved to Q&A, please don't post question threads in Development.

It may be supported on future universal androot apks but I doubt it to be honest

Ohhhh you can soft root with the new version of universal androot.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App

Isn't that explained in the S-OFF status thread that is stickied in the dev forum? It says once they get the S-OFF working 100%, they'll attempt to apk it to hide how they did it, only so official phone devs don't use it to make it harder to root on future phones... or somethin like that.

Yeah they should so they can't make them harder to be rooted indeed

Seriously?
SERIOUSLY?
I mean, SERIOUSLY?
You couldn't bother to look in either the CM6 Nightlies thread or the Official CyanogenMod 6 thread to see if someone had posted about this? Because I had posted to both those threads about this days ago...
Why oh why are you so full of #fail?
Here's a very simple request: if you're not actually actively involved in Android Development, don't create a thread in the Android Development forum.
Feh.

Are you stupid or retard as phuck did you not read the whole thing. I did apologize if it had been reported since I didn't see in the nightly thread. Truly a dumb fuk, indeed!

I'm not sure if I'm worthy of being able to post a reply buy FYI I check xda, I don't really check anywhere else so this thread was of good news to me tyvm OP.

Unless you want to get banned I would suggest you cease using that sort of language on this site.
Don't apologize if your question has been asked before, USE the search function and save everyone time.
I don't blame Hebrew for his reaction, the Dev forum is littered with useless threads asking questions instead of searching.
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App

Imho, neither one replied with constructive comments. If nothing else, it let more people become aware of the fix. The op was just trying to help regardless of it being posted elsewhere.

I actually think this does warrant a thread. Some of us not using the CM nightlies don't check it often. And since I think the FN and CAPS led's was not only a nightlies issue, not everyone, including me, would have thought to check just that thread. So to the OP, thanks for the thread, it may convince me to switch to the latest CM nightly.

Respectfully, I disagree. This belongs in the nightlies thread. Fragmenting an existing topic means more threads to check; more threads=more frustrated noobs=more random question threads in dev forum
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App

But wasn't the FN/CAPS lights not just specific to the nightlys? I thought this was any Froyo ROM out there had the issue? If anything, maybe it was specific to CM, but if you were not running the nightlys, you would again not know to look there. That was all I thought... I am rnuning TeamFenix with the FN/CAPS lights not working, so I definitely would not have thought to look at the nightlys.
Then again, I guess maybe a different sub forum would have been more appropriate rather than the dev forums...

Team Fenix is based off of CM6, so I would venture to assume that the FN/CAPS problem is a CM6 problem. I think this post belongs in a CM thread as that is where it is best served.

Hey guys, from now on let's start threads about every single change in the nightlies!

All you had to do with look one *page 1* of the Android Development forum. Page. One. There are *two* threads entirely devoted to CyanogenMod 6 and instead of checking there first, you created a new thread to post about a BUG FIX!
Amazing.
Simply amazing.

I don't think every change deserves a thread...but the original poster didn't do any harm in posting this and making people more aware of the fix. (Other than make the trolls pour out of the wood work) .
It was brought up that this could cause more useless threads to be created...
This could be looked at from another perspective and because there is a dedicated thread people wont make a thread asking for a fix for their keyboard leds. This is all a matter of opinion and there is no right or wrong answer.

You are right to think it is wrong to think there is a right or wrong answer

Or, better yet, people should be viewing the CM6 changelog on github to learn about new features and bugfixes. And if they want to post about it here, use the threads dedicated to CM6.
This is a VERY simply concept.

I've moved this out of Development, but would like to remind everyone to please keep it friendly.

I agree that we should keep it friendly. I hate how we bash each other especially when the intent of this post was in good spirit. The guy made a mistake, but not one that deserved all this bashing. Please lets be grown ups about this. Thanks.

[Q] Newbie.. I want to root my epic 4g

Im getting my Xoom tablet next week and I cant get any type of free wifi tethering to work with this stock 2.2.2 rom from Sprint. My only option now is root this phone and load a custom ROM.
You guys are the experts.. which Rom or load is going to work best for me. I really only do the following:
- Touchdown (email/exchange)
- gmail
- GPS maps (I like the sprint one actually)
- tether USB rightnow with PDAnet
- pictures to facebook
- facebook
- read the news/web stuff
Thanks fellas!

Lots of good ROMs out there. The first post on each one tells you the features and install instructions.

Here is the link back to the videos thread:

I am pretty sure that you would enjoy the epic experience ROM. It really is awesome.
