no backup... - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ok so im running uncommon sense 1.0 and its stable and everything. but i just went to restore my phone to factory settings which i had backed up at one point but it wasnt there anymore... 1) what does this mean? 2) can i get my phone back to original factory settings? please help.
-thanks

I have a full 2.1 stock image, but not stock 2.2. I would like that though. Let me know if the 2.1 will help.

Couldn't I just flash the 2.2 rom from shippedroms.com? That's the stock froyo rom right?

rmk40 has uploaded the Froyo stock ROMs both deodexed and otherwise..
Search for the thread "[ROM] Incredible Sense/Froyo v3.21.605.1 *Official Release* (100% Stock, Rooted)"

But if I flash that will I be able to flash other roms? I thought you had to do a full wipe before you flash a new rom...

[Q] Downgrade OMGB v6 gingerbread to 2.2 Froyo?

Hey guys, my friend is new to flashing, but he has successfully flashed the OMGB v6 Gingerbread ROM. A couple of "essential" apps do not work (I told him so -_-) and now he wants to go 2.2 Vanilla. Is it Okay to flash a 2.2 after wiping 2.3 via CWM? any tips?
Just wipe data/cache and dalvik cache. Should be good to go after that. Just create a nandroid backup first.

Search for a thread that has posted the stock Rom rooted. If the only reason you are going stock is to upgrade prl,pri then any sense Rom current will work.

If all you're wanting to do is update your PRI/radios, you can just flash the latest radio package found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485
If you're wanting to unroot it then http://www.thedroiddemos.com/2010/09/10/how-to-unroot-the-evo-in-2-steps/
You should do a nand backup of your present before you flash the stock rom. If it's the one you originally saved it's probably named supersonic with a version number or something.
I didn't want to risk dealing with otas so I went with a different sense rom to do my updates for profiles and radios. Don't forget gps.
The updates you are doing can only be performed in sense rom but I am pretty sure they remain in effect for all roms installed thereafter. I mean miui is non-sense but the updates you are talking about will have effect without any special "backup."
I'm still not sure if the pri update to 1.9 is wise.
Why is it not wise? Another dumb question do u have to update ur pri/prl to get the latest 4g towers I really just wanted to update them to check if i get 4g where I'm at... thanks and ya sorry about the two post

[Q] Mod version never changes?

Ok this might be a stupid question but I didn't find an answer when searching. I am running the Ginger Villain 1.8 rom version on my G2 phone but no matter how many rom updates I install my "Mod Version" always says GingerVillain1.4. Shouldn't it change with each update I install? Also my Android version never changes from 2.3.1 but i see other threads with pics showing 2.3.2 and 2.3.3.
Maybe try and do a fresh flash. Wipe and all that jazz?

Thanks for the reply. I tried multiple flashes that but still never changes from gingervillain 1.4. I always wipe data, cache partition and dalvik before every new rom install. 1.4 was the 1st rom i ever flashed so i don't know if that has something to do with it or what. I'm going to flash Xboarder56 v1.9 tonight and see how that goes but i'd still like to know why my Team Villain roms mod version stays the same

[Q] Negligently flashed theme - Help?

Running stock 2.3.6, T-Mobile, T989. Rooted via ODIN, CWM installed. Wasn't paying any damn attention and flashed a battery theme. Now my status bar FCs at startup.
Is there any way to recover from this, or would I be better off unrooting/returning to full stock and then rerooting, reinstalling, etc?
There may be a better answer, but I would just flash a new rom. There's so keep roms available if that's what you want

well, if you made one do a nandroid backup. should work if im not mistaking
Anyone feel free to correct me if I am wrong
Now, see, if I'd been thinking I'd've made a Nandroid before flashing. You know, like mentally stable people do. Unfortunately, thinking wasn't on the menu.
I flashed Zedomax's 2.3.5 and will do an ODIN -> Stock 2.3.6 -> root again once I touch my Windows PC again tonight.
Learn from my failure! Nandroid now, nandroid tomorrow, nandroid forever.

What???
You don't have to root again once rooted already.
Just flash a stock rom from the T989 dev section. Do a nandroid backup.

You can just flash a theme that's made for your ROM... I had this happen to me when I was trying to make my own theme and had bootloops with everything force closing in me so I instead just flashed a working theme to fix it.

What I ended up doing was using ODIN to return to completely stock, then rerooting and removing CIQ by hand. I'm at the point where I'm not interested in flashing anything save the eventual CM9.

[Q] stock 4.2.1 zip?

would anyone have a zip for latest stock kernel?trying to avoid re-flashing rom an deleteN a bunch of stuff again!searched thread an couldnt find anything (sorry just a noob here)
look in the dev section.. there 2 or 3 factory image zips posted but i think they are deodexed and rooted
If the stock kernel is included in the ROM your using you can just reflash the ROM without wiping anything and it'll replace whatever kernel you flashed with the default one included in the ROM. You won't lose any data that way.
