Trying to get recovery back to stock. Software matches Patalo's numbers.
Tried flashing just the recovery, but it said "no image" with file names after it about 3x. Guessing i need to use the complete Stock Incredible Image in order for it to work? Sorry... Noob here. Sharp learning curve.
Will this also work for Software ver. 3.26.605.1?
All other stats match patalo's.

Is this still on your website? It was unclear to me how to find it. I want the recovery to set my fiances Dinc back to stock recovery, accept the OTA for GB, then flash back CWM

"Pvillecomp.com" has the most up to date files to go back to stock and is what you are looking for. It is the new home of the support website "Dougpiston.com" which had all the recoveries, hboots, and accompanying information for the Incredible. I'm on my phone so I have no idea what site this person linked to.
Your post is somewhat confusing, why go back to stock to accept the Gingerbread OTA only to root again soon after? That's just a long winded way of wasting your time unless I'm missing something.

Does anyone know where to get a copy of the stock inc2 recovery image? This is something I failed to backup before installing Clockworkmod recovery image.
Thanks In Advance.
The are some here that say they are for the vivo_w(DInc2), but are in the IS forums.
Thanks. Downloading now. We'll see how it goes.
Thread moved to proper forum.
Very nice. I was able extract the stock ROM which includes the stock recovery image. Thanks for the link. Now I cam revert my phone for warranty purposes. Haven't tried it yet though.

it would be good if we could get that posted somewhere for everyone. i'm sure someone's gonna need to return their phone to VZ soon enough.
If you follow the link provided by TB13, you will see the download link for the vivo_w which is for the incredible 2. Launch the application to let it extract everything (its Windows only) and check your temp directory for the directory created by the application (guid format). You will see a Rom.zip file which contains what you need.

I was able to successfully revert back to stock Froyo 2.2.1 (non-rooted) using the RUU image RUU_Vivo_W_VERIZON_WWE_1.34.605.3_Radio_0.99.01.02 25_2_NV_VZW1.92_release_181303_signed from TB13's link above. After running the RUU I still have S-OFF from AlphaRevX. This did remove clockworkmod recovery and restore the default HTC recovery. This was just to verify it worked.

Only thing is, I'm not sure that's what shipped on the Inc2's. From what I've read, I think it might be 1.34.605.4 is what shipped. That said, same results here. I did go ahead and end up reinstall clockwork and have Gingersense back from recovery. Wonderful stuff.

Ahh. I did verify the HBOOT and radio versions were the same from my original configuration though.
Interesting. No quite what I was hoping for out of that RUU, but I guess I can't complain. The real interest is seeing if someone who is S-ON and running OTA can use it to downgrade and get S-OFF.

I am getting another Dinc 2 in the mail today. If it has GB on it, I will attempt to flash 2.2.1 RUU and see what happens. I will post the results here. Only thing is, how do I attempt to flash that on a stock s-off GB phone? I do see un1c0de has some instructions, but what should I do with Rom.zip once I have it? My other problem is I have to return the one I have, which is s-off. I will have to flash the RUU on there too, but I just hope they don't catch the fact that it is s-off. (I'm not trying to pull a scam. Bought the Dinc 2 at retail, then found out I could trade in my POS Fascinate for a free Dinc 2, so now I have to return the one I bought. Nothing wrong with it, just want my $475 back)
Edit: Looks like someone tried and posted their results in another thread. Oh well. Hopefully for me it still has froyo on it when it gets here.
You just news to run the ruu in Windows.

Hey guys,
I used the AlpharevX Windows beta to S-OFF my Inc 2, then rooted using CWM (still on stock rom). I can see the OTA, and can download it, but it won't install.
The progress bar gets about 1/3 the way full then comes up with the triangle with the !.
I've tried it two or three times, did factory reset, have no idea what to do. Do I have to S-ON for it to install? If so, how exactly do I do that?

First, you cannot install an OTA when you have a custom recovery such as CWM installed. You at least need to install the original recovery image for your particular ROM before you try again.
Since the OTA in now available and official, why don't you just wait a few hours and someone will have a fully rooted version of the ROM that you can flash using CWM and not worry about losing S-OFF?
Let me give you a fair warning though, I'm not positive how Alpha set up their root, as I used XTC. BUT I know if you install the OTA with replacing CWM with regular recovery, you MAY be turned back to S-ON WITHOUT an option to get root back, UNLESS using the XTC clip. Enjoy.
Okay, I was afraid of that. I'm used to not even being able to see OTA's at all with CWM (came from Droid X), so it kind of threw me off.
Do you have any idea if the OTA is really any different from the leaked Inc S GB rom that's floating around? If, for some reason, it takes forever to get the ota rooted and they're not that different I may just install the leaked one I have.
Not trying to be a pain, just curious.
Thanks,

Check the Dev section. It looks like there is already a rooted, debloated version available.
I just created a PG32IMG.zip containing. Android-info text file and CWM recovery img renamed to recovery.img and placed it on root of sdcard
Booted into hboot and flashed it ...
Then I replaced the recovery with the stock recovery from the froyo ruu and flashed the stock recovery back....
Then flashed right back to CWM..
Never used any commands via windows or linux
I am going to install the ota and try to go back to cwm recovery and see what I can do from there.
I'll keep you guys informed

You will recieve the OTA update and get Gingerbread. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED BY MANY that you will NOT be able to -reroot. if you can that's because of the hboot alpha gave you. but if it changes ur hboot you need XTC clip to re-root. RMK already posted a ROOTED ROM of the current OTA. SAME THING, why chance root for OTA. THEY ARE THE EXACT SAME FILES. BUT WITH ROOT! just use his ROM. my 2 cents. do as you please
Link
Hey, Instead of Don't do this, do that, do this, don't update that, If you want the release and don't want to lose root, install from this link. This guy(rmk40) spent some time to get this out to us. Awesome work! You won't lose root, everything works.

Why are you unrooting his device? If it's to get the OTA 2.3.3 update, wouldn't it be easier to flash a rooted stock froyo rom, go to the system update setting and then update? Of course, I'm assuming that is what you're trying to do so forgive me if I misunderstood your post.

Ok, sorry for not being very informed. He tried to update to the ota but it failed. I assumed that it must be because the s-off since he hadn't done anything but tether.
He really has no need to be rooted because the only thing he wanted todo was tether. Now, I have turned the s-on, but the pc36img fails to update.
Is it safe to just check for/install the system up? Or does the phone need to be unrooted?

If you already have S-On, all you need to do is flash the ruu that coincides with software 3.70 or 3.29. You can download any of the ruus for the EVO by clicking on the RUU link in my signature. Also, there's a link to rooted stock roms in my link, as well.

Before you do something you will regret, go back and use unrevoked asap. Get back to S-off. If you turn S-on, and then take the update, you can not go back at the moment.

Honestly, my bro-in-law doesn't need root. Here I am trying to fix his problem. I've spent more time on this than I should. I mod my X, but the evo confuses me some.
Are you saying he can take the ota rooted, with s-on?
You need S-Off for permanent root and ability to flash custom ROMs. So before you take the OTA for him, as long as the phone is 2.2, run Unrevoked once again and install AmonRa.
Does he even like Sense? I would suggest trying one of the setups from my sig, or even MIUI if he doesn't need 4G.
You could have S-On and get the OTA, which would make his phone unrootable and boring, or you could just root back and flash a ROM with better battery life (I hear that Calkulin's works great, but so do other ROMs)
Before you do anything, try showing him pictures of MIUI, SalvageMod, MikG or another ROM and ask what he likes best.

Oh, and he would need a custom ROM with tethering unlocked for the ability to tether for free. And he would need S-Off to put that ROM on.

I understood from your earlier post that your brother-in-law didn't need root and thus the reasons for the answers I gave. Yes, he can accept the OTA while S-ON and he will indeed upgrade his device to 2.3.3, however, should he wish to unroot afterwards, he won't be able to until an exploit can be found. I take it your friend isn't the type of person who flashes roms, mods, kernels and such.

check your hboot version and S off status
if its hboot 2.16 and S on, you are boned since you unrooted it when you took the gb update
so basically...dont tell your friend that you screwed his chances to root yourself lol
the correct route would have been to flash with a rooted stock GB ota wich was already out there, but its too late now : /

you can thether without being rooted

I really appreciate everyones help, don't get me wrong. However, I'm sitting here doing all this research and trying to get help for my in-law who thought he needed root and wanted to tether. He doesn't even use tether. I'm not showing him any custom roms. He lives three hours away and i'd be doing all his leg work/fixing his problems.
All I want to do (and him as well) is get him to gb stock unrooted and be done with his phone.
So, if the s-on is on, but the su app is still in the app drawer, and the pc36img.zip failed. If he selects settings>about phone>check for updates, will this get him to gb?

Pretty sure the OP is asking how to flash stock recovery or something other than clockworkmod.
My question is why? You don't have to flash newest cwm 5.X(you can flash older versions in RM) and there is a thread toget back to complete stock in dev section.
No alternate recoveries besides stock and cwm

It's already available for the G2 so it should be available for the DZ as well. Check the ROMs thread in the sticky, there's probably already a rooted version out that you could flash with CWM.

You have to unroot, get back to a fully stock setup, THEN take the OTA.
I have absolutely no idea why you would do this though. You can get any number of 2.3.3+ based ROMs, both stock and modified, that can just be flashed via recovery. You can be on the latest build and keep your root. Why go through all the hassle to unroot and upgrade when you could just keep root?

Not sure which apps youre referring to that aren't going to work in Canada... anything you use on your current ROM probably works on the 2.3 rooted Sense based ROMs lol.
The DZ is the G2 in the USA, and has completely different firmware. It doesn't have HTC sense. So you probably won't find many HTC Sense based ROMs that are "for the u.s." as you put it...
People like Virtuous unity. Its 2.3 based Sense with some Sense 3.0 flares. There are also a few stock pre-rooted OTA DZ builds out there. Go take a look in the dev section. If you like Sense, there are plenty of options for this device.
no i meant the rom that i will get has some apps that dont work in canada. anyways, what do you think is the best sense based rom with 2.3? post a link if possible. thanks.

which tends to crash more? miui or virtuous unity?

The answers are all in Development... all kernels have working wifi you may have another issue or just flash another kernel you have quite a few choices... May I ask what did you do to find one because I can see quite a few in Development
Just trying to understand

What i did was *It might not be the smartest thing* but i went to the samsung epic 4g touch forum page. And just searched the forum for flashing stock ek09 and got this http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=596949, and since im coming from the transform im not used to all the complicated names like [ACS][Mod][EK02][EL13][Deodex][Odex]AIO Mod Updated 20 Dec 11

Honestly I came from an Evo and was not used to the labeling myself so I took a week to figure **** out before doing anything. But there is a thread that says full restore for Ek02 and EL13..
Edit: fyi- that's two separate threads.... you make your choice plus if you looked at the stickies or search the wiki it would give you everything with links

Like the thread says its stock rooted... If you want a stock rooted rom then that's for you..... or are you trying to go back to full stock no root
My friend this was under a sticky in development.... I would read this stuff before doing anything else http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Epic_4G_Touch/ROMs

I was planing on going stock and rooting again so i could overclock and flash a rom sooner or later. So i guess that would be the best way with that link
That thread will give you ek02 kernel and ek02 rom, but not the modem.
Flash the modem separately if you want it.
Alternatively if you want to start from scratch, odin the eg30 factory restore from my signature, then immediately apply the ek02 ota update.

Hope it worked out for you but there is no need to go back to stock unrooted to achieve your goal unless thats what you want to do
sfhub 's methods work awesome
Is there an easy way to go back to 100% stock no matter what modem and everything else you have? This one mentions if you are on a certain version of something you won't be able to flash.
