How to unroot Mytouch Slide? - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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] Cyanogen 6.1RC Phone call issue

I've been using the nightly builds of cyanogen 6.0 and up until a few days ago, switched up to the stable of 6.1. My issue is with phone calls. I've begun having the problem during the nightly builds, and more recently even in the 6.1 release. When my phone rings - it doesn't ring - it just vibrates for a split second and rings silently. If I call the phone a second time - it rings just as it should. I''m not sure how or why this would happen but I miss calls constantly.
I've checked all the settings and I don't have "turn over for silence" or any of those options enabled that could be playing a role.
Anyone else having the same issue?
Thanks
1. Read the first sticky in this forum.
2. This is the development section. If you're starting a thread here, you should be a developer.
3. If you did want to post here, you should have posted in the CM6 thread.
4. That would still be wrong, as you're just asking a question, not providing a logcat or other valuable info. This should be in Q&A.
5. Did you wipe before flashing? What ROM are you coming from? Have you tried reflashing?

Sorry for posting ion the wrong section, I not sure how I would do a logcat. I have tried reflashing and wiping - i've only flashed cyanogenmod - no other roms

Ah, touche my friend.

[Q] It's probably a little soon, but are we gonna do a ROM bible?

I know the MyTouch Slide has one, and they got the idea from another part of the forums, but the whole reason I even rooted my MTS was because all the ROMs in the forums were in an easy to locate thread. I know we don't have many, but are there any devs, mods or otherwise special people who are thinking of doing one for us?
Hell, we've already got a "home screen" thread
Someone rerouted that. The mods didn't like it apparently and deleted it.

Thanks for the replies! Question answered.
I wish the reference section was called the ROM bible. Whenever I was looking for ROMS and junk for my G1 I went to the ROM Bible. Now I have to go to the reference section, ewww.
You could always make a redirect from bible.com? Only problem is i think it redirects you to hell.

Rooting HTC Evo

I just got the HTC Evo today and I am trying to the most recent thread about rooting it. I am sorry for asking but this is the first time I use this site. Can someone post the link please?
You need to go to the EVO Sub-Forum. Here is a link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=619
There, you will see additional sub-forums. The specific one you are looking for is the 3rd one down called EVO Android Development. In there is everything you need to know. There are many threads about how to root the phone and much much more.
If you feel overwhelmed and need to ask a question you are better off asking it in the Q&A sub-forum of the EVO section. But, there is a sticky in the Development thread called "Useful Threads" which will likely provide more clarity. Here is a link to that:

[Q] Revert to old Firmware

I can't root my EVO 4G phone because the firmware is too new! any idea??
Yeah, do a search. Kthanks. Nobody can root 2.3.3 yet, and it is not possible to downgrade, just be patient
Wow a question in the development section....who wouldve thunk it....
When a FIRST POST goes RIGHT INTO the wrong thread. lol. wow! worst of all, the guy didn't even READ ONE PINNED THREAD. however, asking him/her to search is stupid guys. your search feature DOES NOT WORK. Needs redesigned! I tried to use it today. it's too hard. lol. there is NO easy way to direct it to evo's only.
This is just getting so old though

Okay, I guess I'll be the first one to enable someone who didn't realize a quick search on the web would be faster than joining XDA and posting an idiotic question regardless of what section it was posted.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171252
You literally skipped right over this, it's on the first page of the forum. You wanna root your Evo? Donate to some of these people hard at work finding a solution. And before you ask about the youtube videos saying there's a method, it's a method that only works if you've previously rooted your phone and then unrooted for whatever reason.
*sigh* Read the damn thread that says READ FIRST so you don't get such hateful responses in the future

Yes there is, I search the EVO dev and theme section quite often if I have a question, simply enter the section. And click on the search tab at the top, hell you can search a specific thread by going into it and using the same search tab. Anybody with a quarter of a clue and a couple minutes of forum time in their life can figure that out.
