Need HELP by accident a install the wrong RUU. It was and old one RUU wwe 1.22.605.0 radio 1.00.03.04.06 release 1314 from Verizon. Now stuck in hboot Could get back to recovery but not nandroid or any of when I was rooted. A little of noob here. I was rooted with newest skyraider rom. the phone is Incredible. hopefully I did not brick it. Hopefully adb could get me out of this situation
Alright guys got it fix. thanks anyway.
Glad to see you got it all tworked out.
I have my HTC DESIRE locked to 3 UK, i rooted it the other day, and when i was installing a rom, i was told to update the radio, and i no longer get reception, and when i do it just seems to come and go, stupid me i forgot to check what radio i had installed at first, and now i just want everything to go back to normal and i really dont know what steps to take, i tried using a 3 UK ruu, but it was for hboot 0.80, but i have 0.93.0001 and when i tried it it would just give me an error saying please try again with the correct RUU, well something along them lines.
Could anyone please help me?
Thanks
You've already answered your own question - you need the 3 FroYo RUU or a stock RUU with a gold card to get back to stock. You can, however, just flash another radio and see what happens

Thanks for the advice, but that didnt seem to work as i had to unroot and downgrade my HBOOT first. But i figured it out now, and now have my Desire unrooted properly with the 3 FROYO rom by using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256 and then installing the official 3 rom.
Thanks
Ok let start by getting a few things out of the way.
1 I'm sorta a Noob ok kick me crack a joke or two I don't care as long as you help
2. I have Htc evo of course running stock 2.2 (baseband ver 2.15.00.11.19)
Kernel ver 2.6.32.17-gee557fd htc-kernel and18-2 #15) (S-ON)
Radio-2.15.00.11.19 and I'm using a Mac (if that help)
3. I rooted it using the unrevoked method.
The device works fine but bit I'm having a big issue trying to upgrade from 2.2 to 2.3.
I have been trying to unroot the phone so that I can update OTA.
But no matter how many times I try to unroot it my super user is still there
I would rather flash the phone to a 2.3 GB rom thats 2.3 with sense 2.1 or 3.0.
I've tried this the method found on youtube using the s-on and dropping the image file (zip) on the sd card and flashing it
by making sure you install the (s-on) patch
and re-flashing the RUU (PC36IMG).
but when I did that it said that i was re-flashing a old version.. so I found a newer version.
But when I drop it on my SD card as (PC36IMG.zip) it reads it, checks it then... takes me right back to the Hbot screen like nothing never happen!!!
I've been working on this for 3 days I've even tried restoring and everything.
I've been searching online for answers but I can't find anything that helps either its not up to date or just flat out dont work.
at the end of the day i just want a damn evo running BG 2.3 sense 2.1 or 3.0 would be nice.
oh by the way when i try to run the OTA it reboots startes to load get about 35% then goes to the exclamation mark / triangle.
I'm out of options please help me out! I've searched and read on for about 3 days now.
please either help flash the device to a stable working 2.3 with sense 2.1-3 or un root it so i can update it ota and re root it again...

Wow man, between the general and q&a sections there are seven threads dealing with this very topic. Yet you couldn't find any of them?
If you want to unroot and take the ota you will need to flash the s-on update and run the 3.70 ruu to unroot. Once you do that you'll be completely unrooted and like new. Then just take the update and it should go through without any issues. If, however, your bootloader shows a firmware version higher than 3.70 and you are s-on then I'm sorry to say you are stuck like that.

I've dont that and i still can not remove the root
You'll need to flash the PC36IMG through fastboot to see what's going wrong with it then. To do that download the AutoRoot tools zip and the PC36IMG_3.70.651.1.zip from the link below. Once you have them both unzip the tools folder and place the PC36IMG in it, then run the FlashZip script and tell it to flash the 3.70.651.1 zip
It should flash ok but if not it'll give you an error message saying what went wrong with it. Keep in mind you're going to be completely unrooted if your bootloader shows S-ON.

What HBoot do you have... I think just flashing one of the stock GB roms probably would of been easier just my opinion....
Sent from my EVO rocking Evervolv Gingerbread
i just found a ruu for 3.70.651.1 ... installing so far so good
You do realize that you'll lose root until a new method is found, correct? If you want to stay rooted, you need to reroot, then flash the stock rooted 2.3 rom.
If you want a newer version of Sense, you'll be outta luck there too - the new update is same ol' Sense 1.0.
Just making sure you realize this, since so many people are whining about not being able to root the OTA and being stuck with the uneventful update.

hey guys i got it working thanks for your help!!!!
Hello all, I'm in serious need of some help, I've been working at this for a couple of hours now and can't figure it out, so I turn to you, o mighty forum.
I have an HTC Incredible and I'm currently running MIUI and clockwork recovery mod. I've been having all kinds of problems lately, and I want to just delete everything on my phone and get it back to stock, the way it was when I turned it on for the first time out of the box. If anyone can help me get this done I will be forever grateful, because I'm at my wits end. I have no idea what to do, or where to start, so if anyone could provide me with a step-by-step instructions, I would be very happy.
Thank you

Ok then all you need to do is flash an ruu thru hboot.
Go here (http://pvillecomp.com/?page_id=22)and download the Gingerbread PB31IMG.zip
From the home screen of the phone hit Menu - Settings - Applications, and make sure fastboot is NOT checked.
Then go here (http://pvillecomp.com/?page_id=79) to learn how to flash the ruu thru hboot.
If you have any issues i will be keeping an eye on the thread.
I think I tried this earlier but it didn't work due to something about a newer version already be installed. I'll keep you posted.

What android version are you on now? If its 4.08.605.2 then you will need to do the ruu exe with a pc. Its the first one on the pvillecomp link where the PB31IMG is.
To be totally honest I'm not sure. I tried using an RUU earlier but it kept saying my phone wasnt plugged in and it couldn't run, even though the phone was plugged in.

To do the ruu exe you need to have htc sync installed on your pc, to get the right drivers. Im not positive but you may need to remove the adb drivers first.

Thats the problem your on a custom rom thats ported, and a higher android version than the latest stock ruu for the inc, so the ruu thinks yout trying to downgrade. Since your still on the correct radio needed for unrevoked to achieve s-off, i would reroot and s-off the phone with unrevoked, then flash a stock ota based inc rom (perferably 4.06.605.3), then go s-on again with the s-on patch, then do the ruu and it shouldnt give the firmware too new error anymore, and should get you back to complete stock.
What does that mean/how do I do it? I'm totally clueless here.
What does that mean/how do I do it? I'm totally clueless here. I just downloaded unrevoked 3.

Go here (http://unrevoked.com/#inc) get the unrevoked program and run it to root your phone and get s-off again. Instructions are on that page for using it.
Then flash this rom thru clockworkmod recoveryrecovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1247253), and reboot.
Then flash the s-on tool thru recovery (http://downloads.unrevoked.com/forever/current/unrevoked-forever-son.zip)
Then do the PB31IMG.zip ruu again, it should work this time, and you will be complete stock.
Not exactly sure what's going on here. I used unrevoked 3 and got the original OS back on there, but when unrevoked runs, it asks if I want to install that PB31IMG file. I chose to not update with that and just reboot into recovery (which if I'm correct should be clockwork,) so I could flash that ROM, but when I reboot the device, I get a black screen wiith a picture of the phone and an ! in a red triangle. The unrevoked program just says "waiting for reboot..."

Go aheda and let unrevoked do the PB31IMG, that is the cwm recovery. The red triangle is still the stock recovery. Are you s-off now?
Nope, I'm still S-on. Not really sure what happened, but I have the original OS on the phone and from what I can tell, it's working fine. But I'm still S-on
I'm going to call it a night. I'll check this thread tomorrow when I get back from work and class. Thanks so much for all of your help so far.

Welk then you are stock just like the day you got it. If you want you can do the gingerbread ruu now, and it should not give the firmware too new error, ir you can stick with froyo, and at some point it will pop up with the latest ota to install.
Thanks so much, again. This was driving me crazy.
Hi everyone, i've got a big trouble. A friend need to restore his HTC Desire to stock, just as factory, the details are these:
UNLOCKED
SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.03.0003
It got installed cyanogenmod 4.0.4, and it's not root.
The question is... (after trying lots and lots of things...) how can i do it?
This is very very difficult for me, i really don't know where to start.
Thanks a lot!
Cyanogenmod 4.0.4? I don't think such a thing exists.
Anyhow, you need to flash a RUU to go back to stock. Does the 2.3 RUU work? Try it.
Hi!, RUU does not work, but i will change ID with RIFF so i can use wuropean RUU, because this version have not RUU.
