Does anyone have the default Clockwork Image of an HTC Incredible that I can download to reset my phone. I have rooted the phone and have ran into a ton of issues and would just like to start fresh over.

If your looking for a CWM backup it won't do you any good since it is tied to the phone including the MEIN and phone number.
If you need to get back to stock look for the froyo RUU or a zip of the stock ROM.

As long as everything went well, you are fine. Just flash your custom rom of choice, I used Flipz.
If you need to revert to stock you can flash a rooted stock ROM from the wiki or you can just RUU if you want to undo the root.
the ruu from the original toast post for rooting? if i did that would it be the same way as the first part of the guide or second. basically so i could start over from a new phone basically. or can u suggest another route to get it back to fresh out the box? any input is appreciated. thanks

No, flash any custom ROM from recovery or pick one of the "stock with root" ROMs. You should try out the Flipz or Damage ROM in my opinion.
To get to recovery from your console type
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Otherwise, make sure you don't have any of the auto flashing image files on the root of your sdcard, then turn off the phone, turn on the phone while holding power down, wait a sec, arrow down to recovery, in recovery wipe data and davik, then flash from .zip, select the ROM .zip you download and let it run.
All custom ROMs are located here >> http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC Evo ROMs
As long as you are rooted and can boot your phone you could install ROM Manager from Market. The free version will allow you to download the Flipz or Damage ROM, then it will give you the option of installing for you. Be sure to select to wipe before the install.
You will be up and running a brand spanking new custom ROM after ROM Manager has its way with your phone.
sounds good yeah just getting use to this device, coming from a nexus
In Brief:
Got New Phone due to light leak. Finally after 2 months
Came with 2.2 on it.
Used the new 2.2 Root Guide with Unrevoked. Worked great.
Installed VirusROMX - working great.
Wanted to try out the Final 6.0 ROM from Cyan.
NanDroided the ViruxROMX
Got an error 7? So I found this link that was to correct that issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752832
Flashed the new Hboot and it allowed me to install the CYAN R6.0.
CYAN ROM - Keep on Rebooting and Reloading the CYAN Boot Screen after setup and scrolling some apps.
Removed it and went for a Nandroid Restore.
I get the MD5 Checksum message and then trying to reload boot image. And Boot Image cannot load.
I have tried to reflash the recovery(Clockwork) and still no good.
My working Daily with all my updates and apps are on the Nandroid. I would hate to lose it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Anyone?

instead of re-flashing the recovery, have you tried to do a restore via a nand recovery, or is that what your talking about that you did.

That's is what I tried to do. It would say boot image unloadable and spits me out to the HBOOT options. With no ROM loaded and messes up my current ROM in place.
At least for me when I restored in the past and I have done it often is that I would just restore and not wipe or anything since the restore does all of that for me. Well in this case it does not and when it cannot restore I have to reload a new ROM again in recovery and start the process all over again. I have tried the NANDROID again after going through the entire ROM reload again and still a no go.
I can't nandroid restore my old daily which has text messages and everything that I wanted to reference. I can live without it but the inability to restore any Nandroid is driving me crazy.
It happened when I flashed that HBOOT update on the link I provided in OP. I am just trying to figure out how to reflash the old image back so I don't have to worry about it. The only reason I did it in the first place is to test out the Cyanogen R6 and that wasn't a good experience.
I guess I could post in the thread that started all of this to ask. But I thought I would keep the SECTION POLICE from hounding me about posting in the wrong section
about the hboot, did you try the PC36IMG.zip, or did you do the flashable zip file through recovery?
I did the flashable file though recovery last night had no issue with that, maybe that's the problem, what is it showing for you current hboot.

The PC36IMG.zip - I will try the flash.
The Hboot through PC36IMG.zip worked fine. It's the nandroid thats fuxored. Will try later on and see. Thanks for the suggestion.
I had to redo the second part of the Froyo 2.2 update with the Rooted Froyo and the 2.2 unrevoked. It finally worked and I was able to restore. I really want to try out the CM 6.0 again in the future but not at the expense of time to restore to get it back.
Good evening,
before I start:
HTC Desire HD
Orange Branded
Clockwordmod Recovery
I was out and about today when I recieved a nice message telling me there was a system update to download and install. I got within WiFi signal and downloaded it. when I tried to run it, it kept hanging on the ClockwordMod (CWM) Recovery page. First it told me that it couldn't mount the SD card where the update was stored. So I mounted the SD card through CWM and tried again. This time it told me that it couldn't be verified. So I turned that off too. Then it told me something else didn't work so I disabled that (sorry, I can't remember but it begins with 'A'). I tried a final time to install the update but it wouldn't work still.
Then the phone wouldn't load. It just hung on the HTC white screen for about ten mins with no movement.
I removed the battery, reloaded by pressing Vol Down + On. I have tried every menu item but the loader tells me that an image (beginning with P****.zip) is missing. It lets me load the clockworkmod recovery page so I have tried to restore a backup that I made about a week ago. It restored it, (or so it said) but when I then told it to reload it still hangs on the HTC white screen.
It's now been hanging for ten mins and I'm just leaving it.
Does it just need to be left for a long time to reload from the HTC white screen?
If it does not reload, how can I get it to?
Many thanks for your impending help!
You havent bricked your phone, a bricked phone wont power on! For future reference, remember, you cannot flash an ota update with a custom recovery installed. As you have found out it messes your device up. Ok you have 2 options.
1. Try a full wipe from the mounts and storage menu. Then try to restore your backup.
2. Flash a custom rom from recovery.

I really thought restoring my backup would have done it.
I now need to try a custom rom.

Would you happen to know where I can get the Orange ACE Rom from?
I've tried to install the Cyanogen Mod but that has got me no further.
I downloaded the most uptodate build of Cyanogen Mod (7) and copied it to my SD Card.
Through ClockworkMod Recovery I installed Cyanogen Mod and it told me that it had been successful. I restarted the phone and it got past the HTC white screen.....
I was very excited until it is not sat here on the Cyanogen Mod screen which just loads over and over again repeatedly.
Any other ideas please? I suspect I need the Orange ACE Stock Rom....is it available?
did you wipe your phone before trying to flash the new roms as AndroHero suggested?
if not try that first (you can do it via clockwork recovery or via easy full wipe from mero01 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=868720)

yes, the only thing I didn't wipe was the SD card because that's where the rom / backup is stored. Do i need to completely wipe that then put the backup back on there?
as far as i know, it shouldn't be necessary. but i'm not really sure, sorry.
you could try formatting your sd card, wouldn't hurt, but maybe it would be better to wait for someone with more knowledge about android than me.

Thanks for your help so far. I am trying everything. If I could find the actual Orange Stock Rom (Ace) then I might get somewhere. I don't want to install a custom rom if not necessary.
EDIT: I have found an Orange Stock Rom (RUU). How do i install it?
I can only get to the bootloader screen so do I plug the USB cable in at this point and run the RUU from the PC once the drivers have installed? Do I put the RUU on the SD card and somehow run it from there?
i think this is the newest stock rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=969374&highlight=orange+rom
but as AndroHero already mentioned, i think you can't flash stock RUUs with cwm recovery.
p.s. did you give easy wipe from the link from my previous post a try ?

I must admit that i've not yet tried the Easy Wipe. At the moment I am downloading an older stock Rom (the one that was on there before this happened) and am following some other instructions to extract the PD98IMG.ZIP which appears to be missing.
I DID go through CWM to competely wipe everything with the exception of the SD card and i managed to almost get CyanogenMod working....it would work for about 20seconds before reloading again....very strange. It has given me hope though. I tried wiping everything before doing the restore of my original backup but still nothing.
the download is taking ages so I'll give easy wipe a go.....wait....
SOLVED
thank you for all who helped.
I solved this problem by downloading an older Orange Stock Rom from the link above. After that, I followed instructions in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841890 and reinstalled the rom.zip that it mentions. Sure enough, I am back to where I started about 3 weeks ago but because everything was backed up to the cloud I really don't mind at all. Sure, I have to root it with VISIONary again to remove all the apps that Orange have stuffed in but I can cope with that.
In fact, the worst thing is that I completed Angry Birds and Angry Birds Seasons and now i have no proof!!
Thanks again all.
glad that you could finally solved it!
i, too just lost all my angry birds saves because i just downgraded so that i could root my dhd
Hey people,
I've recently rooted my phone using the UnRevoked root method without a hitch. I've also recently installed HydraKernal's OC 1.13ghz OV v1.0 kernel (On the Stock 2.2 Froyo ROM). However recently my phone has been freezing and stuff, so I went back today to reflash my phone back to the stock kernal, using the stock one provided from HydraKernal's Support section on the website. After flashing, I get stuck at the HTC Incredible white boot screen and have to do a battery pull. I've tried reflashing to the previously working OC 1.13ghz kernal with no luck, and my SD card got corrupted so I lost my nandroid backup. Any ideas? I'm currently in the process of unrooting, but I'm not sure if this is the right step to take. I've cleared the Devlik and regular cache's but have not done a factory reset, because I'd like to keep my phone setup how it is. If you have any suggestions I'd appreciate it. Thanks...

You will have to revert to stock and then re-root. Because you have lost your nandroid, you lost a lot.
Download this file
http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/stockstuff/PB31IMG_3.26.605.1_RUU.zip
Rename it to PB31IMG.zip, put it on the root of your SD card, Boot into the bootloader (hold vol- and pwr) and let it run the update. After it is done you will be back to a stock 2.2 and can re-root from there and do whatever other updates there are. I would suggest using a newer kernel as those hydra kernels are very outdated.
Okay, did it all. Worked like a charm. Rerooted with a Nandroid backed up to my PC. Learned my lesson. Thanks guys !

Try going here pvillecomp.com.
well it all started when i tried rooting my phone, i used the hack ace tool, followed all the instructions and so far through it froze. after so long i decided to pull the plug and take the battery out... when it restarted it all booted up fine and i did the checks to find somehow it had done it
then downloaded cyanogen 7 and put it on with clockwork recovery is it? when it first installed it just boot looped so took out the battery and it started up fine, i had also made a backup of my stock rom which was a orange branded one. i messed around with it for a while before flicking back and forth between the stock and cyanogen when on cyanogen i think i put back clockwork recovery to an older state. after this it wouldnt access the stock rom files so i couldnt revert back to it, assuming it was the clockwork i tried to uninstall it with titanium but it didnt work and had to restart the phone. after that i tried re rooting hoping it would reinstall clockwork like when i first rooted it.
now my phone boots up to the htc screen and i dont know what to do, could anyone give any help?
