I have my Desire rooted and it's on Telus. I want to send it in for warranty repair but I haven't been able to find any Telus RUUs around for me to unroot with. So i was wondering if I do a 100% complete factory reset, will that unroot my phone?

no it wont ... check the webiste Shipped Roms to find your RUU ....
I just looked, that website does not have a RUU for my carrier. Any suggestions?
There is a Telus RUU available. You apparently didn't look hard enough at the website

Now that FroYo is out from Orange UK, Can I restore my debranded desire be revetered to stock so I can get it replaced for one that doesn't overheat when it feels like it...?

Couldn't someone save the OTA update, then I flash it to my phone?
No, as you need to be on an Orange ROM to get it. You're going to have to wait and hope the Orange 2.2 RUU is leaked...
Can a unbranded unlocked phone be reverted to stock state for warranty purposes? This problem primarily effects branded phones?

If you have the stock ROM. Orange UK RUUs have never been leaked so until they are there's no way of doing so
I'm not sure they're that savvy on checking. I sent my black (you can only get them from Orange) Desire back to Orange after it started overheating; I'd debranded it and put 2.2 on (before it was out here). I just described my overheating problem and the guy sent me another one, next day couriered, no eyebrows raised.

But that shouldn't be accepted as the norm as technically you've invalidated the warranty. They should've told you where to go in all honesty
Indeed, just thought I'd share. I took the gamble they'd have heard the problem before and just shoot me another one. I believe you get refurb though (this one was immaculate). I didn't want to wait for HTC to fix it.

It's very likely that if you kicked up a fuss you would have your warranty honoured on a debranded phone, since it's unmodified official software. It's a good idea to get an email from your network confirming that they will honour the warranty before you debrand, or you might be better off sending it to HTC directly for a repair.
At the end of the day if Orange piss me off over something so trivial then they will lose a cunstomer.. I know that, they know that... that's why we all get along
If someone has a nandroid backup of a rooted 2.1 orange uk stock can you upload it for us.
You might want to flash it and clear data to get rid of any personal data then make a new nand backup that is safe to share.
If you are kind enough to do so we can update ota to stock 2.2 for warranty purposes if we flash this...I think.
I agree with mercinary if someone could do that it'd be great.

I have a backup of the stock orange rom but how would I go extracting and uploading? If I could make it into an RUU I will just someone needs to tell me how.

Just upload the nand backup on multiupload and we will sort out the rest.
Don't forget to reset it to factory settings before uploading.
Just do this
Nand backup your current rom.
Restore stock backup.
Clear data/factory reset. Do this to clear your private data.
Nand backup this new clean rom.
Zip it all up and upload it to multiupload (you don't need to register with this site.
Copy the link multiuplad gives you and post it here.
Restore the nand backup you made of your current rom.
Receive many thanks from many happy people.
Thanks
yes many thanks
Right I'll do that now for you guys.
Here it is http://www.multiupload.com/ATSGUBVLQY
It does have the older software version though (1.15.61.10). So you will need to wait for HTC to release the newer version (1.22.61.1). Anyways I hope this works for you. Tell me if it does
Has no one tried this yet? D:
Trying now. Will let you know when I'm successfull
Trying to find a stock, unrooted 2.1 or 2.2 image for a US Cellular CDMA Desire, for warranty. I have been lookin for a couple days and have yet to find. Found several links on the xda forums but they were for rooted or nonstock images.
Didn't find one other than verizon's on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
Search function on the forums has not been workin for me as well, always get a temp. unavailable error, so please no search flames..
Thanks for any help here
You can get the stock 2.2 ruu off the USCC web site

Yep sure is, installed and works great (for stock). No issues no glitches, thanks for getting me in the right direction.
I would like to find a stock 2.1 to downgrade my Desire with to get it rooted. Anyone got one of those? I have found stuff, but none of it will work with the CDMA version.

you don't need to downgrade to root. Use unrevoked.
Unrevoked will not work on 2.2 CDMA Desire unless it was already rooted on 2.1 before 2.2 was installed

Yep, that's why I am looking for a way to get back to 2.1. I would do it the gold card way, but it seems to only work on non-cdma phones for the desire.

I upgraded to 2.2 and would like to go back to 2.1 but can't find anyway to do so yet.
Alltel has 2.1 RUU, you could try it )

Yeah I saw that but haven't heard about anyone actually trying it on a USCC phone and what the effects are.
Thanks though
I picked up a Desire yesterday to try to start work on it also. I've been doing dev work on the Mesmerize since it came out and also for the Showcase (Cellular South).
Not that you guys probably care, but I'm a USCC Engineer and have access that has helped me out a lot to get the Mesmerize to where it's at today (of course with lots of help from other devs on the Fascinate side as well as the new guys with me). Unfortunately, things aren't as plentiful in the HTC firmware bin or I would have brought a 2.1 RUU over here a long time ago. On the Samsung side, if a customer brought a phone in to the store and had jacked it up, the in store tech had a stock image of the 2.1 firmware that he/she could flash back on the phone and it would be restored to it's factory state and the customer would be sent on their way. With the Desire, this doesn't seem to be the case. There was no factory image to flash to, so phones were swapped and sent in for repair.
I'm sure that the guys from unrevoked will probably figure this out before I even come close, but I just wanted to pop in and say hey and let you know that you have a friend on the inside (probably not the only one) that's working on things also. Feel free to hit me up. I'm always available for questions, comments, and suggestions.

okay. let me tell you now, I have searched for months and months to find info about these nex-tech desires and have found very little. i hope you made a nandroid before you rooted, because in most cases, thats the best option unless you have some sort of dire need to unroot. and the only solution ive found, is that if you want a full stock RUU, it wont be from nex-tech. it will be either a US Cellular RUU or an Alltel RUU. i can post the links for each one. i used the alltell one, hoping it would clear **** out and give me a fresh phone. but for whatever reason, it still didn't do what i needed. hahaha. so i can assure you that they aren't some b.s. links.
here's where I found them:

I'm due my upgrade in a few days and am selling my beloved desire to one of those mobile flashback sites and wanted to know if I should unroot it as I have s-off and rcmix Rom installed. On these site they only really state that itmys full switch on.
What's your thoughts?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I'd unroot it personally
And probably load Froyo on it too
@Eddy: Sold your Desire, have you?
If I was you I'd unroot it. Leaving on a custom ROM just means there's something for the cashback website to moan about (and possibly not accept).
Unroot. It's not like it takes long to do it.
thanks folks.
issue i have is that my desire is a branded t-mobile uk device and i rooted using unrevoked and every time i have tried to create a goldcard it hasn't worked.
is there any other way to unroot branded devices?

Search for the threads on Goldcard. See my thread on "How to unbrick the Desire". It has a good Goldcard FAQ
Just got confirmation from fonebank. They accepted the phone even though it had root and s-off

Sorry, I hate to be 'that' new guy, and I'm normally not. BUT. Does anyone know where I can find a copy of the stock Vodafone AU ROM? And preferably some method to get my friends phone back to stock?
It's got to go in for warranty repairs, and in the now-distant past I've rooted and done s-off as wel.
