For reference how would I go about getting the phone back to complete stock? I have tried 2 ROMs so far, CR_Mod_1.35.531_OTA Full ROM and CyanogenMod-6 for MT3G Slide - V6.0.0-RC1. Just in case that information is relevant. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
You are kidding right? you use the search bar yet?
The poster was not rude when he asked his question, i'm not sure why you felt the need to reply in the manner that you did. If you don't have a reply or find the informaton yourself by the time I get home, bud, ill post the thread.

I agree with you, but seriously... a lot of these questions that are being asked (in the development forum nonetheless) should be going in Q&A obviously. Not to mention that pretty much any question that gets asked generally can be answered in The Slide Rom Bible Thread.
Yeah please search next time. Sorry for the previous poster but serioulsy we have people asking thed same questions over and over again and clogs up the forum. Also technically is in wrong section should be in qa so please be carefull of this for future posts
The answer you are looking for is in the bible thread. Flash the champion build with those instructions and would be unrooted.

I apologize for the rudeness, my jerk of a brother also has a slide and frequents this forum. he uses my laptop seeing as he doesnt have one and used my account seeing as it is saved in the browser. again my sincere apologies.
Edit: Fell free to Pm me whenever you need help Xerphon. again my apologies.
I think there was a spot on his butt you forgot to kiss.
Why do you people thing there is a Q & A section is this subforum?! YOU CANNOT post your question in the most popular subforum section just because you think you'll get a quicker answer here. This happens way too much to be accidential and everybody still claims it was.
I apologize for posting in the wrong place, and I did check the Slide Bible but didn't see anything... anyway, thanks encrypti0n for the help.

Really? It's the second post in the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6846976&postcount=2
Sorry for not checking the second thread in that post, once again I apologize for wasting the 3 seconds it took you to read the thread title and the other 30 seconds it took for you to decide to throw your 2 cents in after I already apologized. Once again, thanks encrypti0n for your help. Hopefully we can consider this matter closed now, I made a mistake no need to repeatedly throw it in my face.
Isn't there a esprimg.img file flying around here that is a full factory espresso rom?
Edit: heres to me thinking the champ rom was a regular rom and not a esprimg.zip factory flash. >_>

Well I got my replacement from tmob for my mt3gs and now I have tried just about every thread I can and nothing gets rid of root. 3 weeks ago I was asking for help to get rooted and now that is a breeze but getting it back to factory is another story. I have looked and looked and literally tried all the posts that pertain to the espresso my touch 3gs. Not a real big deal since I have the replacement but who knows it would be nice to have it stock just so there isn't any problems. I even tried the bilbe and the threads that encrypti0n posted and well all I can find but I still have root. I asked for root and I got it

You have got to be kidding me. Obviously you either didn't search at all or you don't know how to use it. I did ONE search and found the exact thread with everything you need. I searched the ENTIRE slide section (not just this section), and found it sitting there on the first page of search results. The only search term I used was the word Unroot. Here it is you lazy bums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705345&highlight=UNROOT
Oh yeah, and I have used this method and it DOES work! I have unrooted 2 to be replaced already.

I guess I was right, you really didn't search or look at anything on your own. The same link I just posted is listed right here on the 2nd post in the Bible thread. Stop wasting other people's time and look for it on your own next time.

Wow so hostile with everything Well here is the long and the short of it. I tried this thread and all the others as well and when it came down to it I made a typo in one of the directories and didn't catch it until now. I wouldn't have posted and or asked without trying everything first. I don't like to bother people. Well at least it proves I am human and not a god like some people. Yes it worked well and yes it did restore to factory. Thanks for the effort..
Well either way, I am glad it at least worked for you in the end.
Can anyone post the link to where I can get the my touch 4g rom.
i had it previously on here when I bought the phone and I HATE the g2 rom.
my touch is so much more advancesd and personalized.
I guess you mean this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=799903
1. Don't write "noob" in your title. People will ignore it. Write something useful instead to describe your issue.
2. This is the Hero forum and NOT the G2 forum. The phone your thinking about is called T-mobile G2 and the one this forum is about is G2 Touch/HTC Hero.
3. Post in the correct section. This is 99% NOT development related and should be in general...
4. Use the search function and Google before posting. I'm sure you can find this without having to bother other people.

I apologise
1. This is not development and should not be posted in a development section.
2. This is the wrong device area. This thread will find its way to the right place shortly, but will remain locked, given the fact the arguing will likely continue.
3. Nobody was rude. You were told this isn't the right place to find people that can help, and pointed to the correct forum.
4. This kind of thing is something you could work out by reading a few posts. You cannot run another device's ROM straight away on another device. You would likely need to port it.
Closed as explained in 2.
Hey everyone,
Just thought I'd introduce myself and let everyone know a little about who your forum mod is. I'm an Epic 4G user, and a theme developer. I'm looking forward to working with you guys, and I'm looking toward cooperation and production with this thread! Thanks guys, and feel free to post here as an off topic general post
Make sure to report posts which are violating forum rules so that I may action them! Thanks
Good deal man.

Hello Mod,
Off topic question: I'm on the fence between the xoom and the g-slate. My issue is the dreaded possibility of a locked bootloader. I'm wondering why XDA has a forum already set up for the xoom, but apparently not for the gslate.
Any clue?
BTW: I posted a similar question in another section (its now in "About xda...") but got no responses. I hope devs will be working on g-slate as much as xoom (or more )

koush got a XOOM and rooted it and also said something about custom ROMS being on hold until the sd card is enabled.
He even has a working recovery , and I quote
Code:
As I mentioned, I have a working recovery, but will not be releasing it until Google or I get the SD card working.

Hi - Can you do some work and move threads to the proper forums?
I will also try and give theimpaler747 a hand
Since i noticed my original post for keeping Dev sections clean.
I have trashed numerous threads already.
On going offenders will get a short/long time away from XDA
I have, but not through a MAC

If you can't do it through USB, have you tried bluetooth or through online storage? Using USB, I moved music over into the already available music folder; however I am using Win XP.

Would you delete Topic/Thread 986342, the flames are so out of control that many thousands of acres have been burned to ashes. It isn't salvagable, so just moving it won't accomplish anything.
Thanks Mod, you are doing a great job considering all the noobness and ignorance you are battling.

Hi i'm Drie and i wanted to introduce myself and say i find most of the information here helpful and useful. I am very interested in rooting my phone and I must say that a lot of you have some great ideal but they are not working for me. I know there are some SUPER TECHS on this sight that may want to entertain a new user by giving her a step by step manual (rooting for dummies) on how to root an HTC EVO 4g.
Ive read thread and watch lots of videos and still my phone is not rooted.... HELP
Drie
Welcome to the site; it's a great place.
From what I have found is, it is easier to do things by reading directions; I never get things done in the videos.
Oh and a big problem for a lot of people; when downloading and putting the update or bootloader zipped folders onto the phone, only name them root or update or whatever, leave out the .zip part; that messed me up and I was clueless for an hour or so.
rooting
when i say that i tried to root the phone, that means i made an attempted at it, but since i know nothing about rooting a phone every word seems foreign to me. I need instuctions from the very beginning.
Welcome to the forum.
There is a good guide HERE and another HERE.
The first one does a good job of explaining the terminology.
Hi. I'm Ed.
Just hijacking this thread to say hi too. Been browsing xda for nearly a year now using it to upgrade and root my desire. Just found out I need 10 posts before I can ask technical questions. Oh well, 9 to go.
Thanks for all the sound advice I've found on here. And it shows its a decent forum if I haven't needed to ask a question in nearly a year.

so asking in the Q&A we don't get dev help? or do ya'll mean just to ask about ROM's specifically?
I have to agree with quite a few of you here - I read threads here for about 2 to 3 weeks before ever signing up - finally I had to lol (got soo many questions) - also went to post in the development section and found out I couldn't post there - though I can't remember why I was going to post there first - maybe that was where one of the instruction threads I was reading was posted
Hello. I am almost new to rooting and roming phones. I had my touch lg tmobile phone that I messed around with before but still a noob:laugh: Anyway can someone hold my hand and tell me the proper way to root our Galaxy s3's and also what are some good roms. I have use CM before and really liked it. Also kind of confused since we got the 4.1.2 update what will work and what will not.
To sum it up.

No one is going to hold your hand here or any other place.
It looks like you actually do know a bit more than you are letting on, so why not spend a couple hours here,
do some exploration and I can guarantee that all four of your questions will be answered in great detail.
P.S. you might start off by reading the forum rules...

I understand. I am just confused as to where exactly to look/ or what to look at. There is a lot of people that use technical stuff or abbreviation here that I have no idea what it means. Also there is threads where I am confused as to if something will work on my phone or not. Hence my question for the 4.1.2 version because most I saw was done for 4.1.1.
Lazy as hell ,read on.
