I updated to RUU 2.3.3 on my DINC2 and I have a couple of questions. Will I still be able to get 2.3.3 when Verizon releases it for my phone. I know it's going out now, but I haven't been able to pull it. Is it possible to go back to stock Froyo? Thanks for your help.
Once you are on the leaked or official version of GB from Verizon, you cannot go back to Froyo. The only potential way would be when root is obtained, and who knows when that might be.
But, being that I updated using RUU, will I be able to get the update from Verizon?

Which RUU did you use? If you used the leaked one, no. But there's an RUU out for the OTA version as well.
I used the non-rooted version from ....droid-life.com/2011/06/27/full-gingerbread-ruu-for-the-droid-incredible-2-leaks-rooted-versions-too/ (I couldn't post the full link b\c I'm new). If this is not the RUU for the OTA version, can you send me the link?

I downloaded the 2.2 leak and it updated my hboot to 0.93.0000
is there a possible way to downgrade the hboot or even get a stock rom back on the evo?
Sorry.....not at the moment...hang tight buddy.....sucks
I made the same mistake. I have a gut feeling root is going to take awhile to appear.
should be in q&a section by the way...
I'm getting an EVO for my wife today....depending on the hboot rev she gets, I may work on this exact issue today. I'll keep you updated.
Rofl.

Ug. I'm in the same boat. Stupid HTC leak.

What is your PRI version with that HBOOT version? (Look on the phone info/SW version screen.)

I'm in the same boat, my PRL is 1.34_003
currently no there is no way to change the hboot or root a 2,2 phone.
additionally please ask questions in the proper forum in the future(Q&A)
Thread moved to Q&A.
Just to clarify, I am fully rooted... Trying to find out if the 2.2 update opens a door to fix the 1.34 PRI issue.
You may not be completely hopeless. When the 1.47 OTA came out I downloaded and flashed a "rooted" version (it apparently wasn't because it broke my root and updated my Hboot to .93 also); however, it didn't get rid of Super User.
If you still have Super User on your phone, connect to adb shell, type "su" to enable super user and reflash the eng build. I would revert all the way back to the original stock and flash to 2.2 from there.
I'm not sure how effed you are, but maybe my stoke of bad/good/bad/good luck may help you out.
No pri change
i had the same problem. All i did was flash original radios and wimax update, then flashed a 2.1 stock rooted rom. RUU wont work and software updates wont install either. From here all you have to do is flash stock recovery image and then you should be able to do a software update on your evo and go back to stock.

Ivan, mind shedding a bit of light here and typing up a small tutorial of how you went about this step by step?
Thanks in advance,

And thats what happens when you install a ROM that is not ROOTED... why you didn't just install avalaunch rom? he release his the same time HTC had the leak.
Desire is currently rooted and S-OFF'ed. Is it possible to "debrand" this way? Also this means I'll get the GB update (as I'm pretty sure VF won't release an update)
Thanks for any potential advice guys

It works on me.
I bought last year a HTC Desire from Vodafone, and rooted + S-OFF and i flash ruu for europe froyo 2.29.405 and now i`m expecting gingerbread.
Same think i made when i expect froyo update.

Yes, you can. But you need goldcard to avoid cid error and furthermore, you will loose root access and s-off. So imho it is easier, to flash one of the many custom sense roms with gingerbread you can find here. On this way you won't loose root access and s-off status, but you will have a gingerbread sense rom (which is what you want I guess).
or is there a easy way to unroot? I rooted via unrevoked......

There is no easier way to unroot as flashing a ruu, imho.
Swyped from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
Ok so I guess if I flash the Voda RUU, the phone will have to do a few updates...... as the RUU is pretty old 2.1 I do believe...
if you instal the Vodafon RUU you will be branded again. And what is the point of unrooting? You can always find a rooted stock Rom, I am sure one will come out as soon as Gingerbread will be released.
And another problem would be if they release the update by IMEI and then if you are not at the original state of your phone you will not get the update even if not rooted.
True, best wait for a stock rooted ROM from here then and flash that via ROM manager

Please do not use rom manager, it is a horrible software which causes many heavy system problems here. Just do it directly from recovery.
So basically, Can I go back to offical ota 2.2.1 rom after flashing a custom rom?
I have T-mobile mytouch 3g Slide, S-off, rooted, on android 2.2.1 official rom, think about flashing a custom recovery and then a cyanogen 7, and try a few other.
Can someone tell me, if i can ever get back to the official rom from the HTC support website.

Yes. There are some official OTA 2.2.1 update ROMs here. Just flash like a normal ROM.
All you have to do is flash the official update and you will be unrooted and s - on again.
@UberMario, So the rom updater software available on HTC Support website, can also get me back to the Offical Rom? Right? That is, without bricking my phone!?!

I had rooted and was on S-OFF, when I was on Offical 2.1 Eclair Rom, then I updated via the official Htc updater software to 2.2.1 Froyo. I lost the root, but S-OFF remained. Gained root again by just using the SuperOneClick http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682

I dont want some official rom, i want THE official rom. All i want to do is, flash different roms and try them out, but in the end, i want to just be able to go back to the OFFICIAL rom. Can I do that by using the software updater from HTC Support Website?
I'm having trouble getting the official HTC update to work, so be careful. I'm kinda tearing my hair out about. Everyone keeps suggesting "oh just use the official HTC update, that will fix everything" but it's like they've never tried it themselves.

I think the official HTC update only works if you're on a sense ROM. I had tried to flash the update for ****s and giggles while on cyanogen but the software wouldn't find the phone... So, if anything, flash one of the OTA rooted roms and THEN flash with the HTC software update.

Are you sure, it won't brick the phone.
I know you, will lose root, but will you lose S-OFF too?

You won't brick the phone, but you will lose S-OFF as well as root. You can always reroot again, but nobody figured out how to get S-OFF with the new hboot, so as far as now, you will lose S-OFF for good.

No, once you have the official froyo update from HTC, it will upgrade your hboot, which nobody knows how to gain S-OFF from yet. Not even AlphaRev's method.
Hi, I have a DHD, unlocked and rooted with AAHK and I want to go back to the T-Mo branded GB rom.
Do I just use an RUU? And if so, can someone link me to the Froyo/GB T-Mobile RUU?
Thanks!
The only TMO-UK RUU I could find is the last in this list.
Hope it helps!

That's brill, thanks! Will I be able to use OTA updates or will I have to S-ON first?
lul, did it work?
I see the One m9 Marshmallow update is out today.
If we are currently rooted with TWRP and S-OFF, what do we need to do to get the OTA?
I assume flash the stock recovery back first, take the OTA, then reflash twrp and root again?
Did I miss anything?
You have to be 100% stock (other than s-off) to take an OTA, which means running a RUU.
But being s-off, why not just wait until the firmware gets posted and update manually?

How would you update manually?
Manually - in case of S-OFF - means flashing firmware that has e.g. been extracted from the OTA using fastboot.
In such a case it is even possible to exchange the stock recovery by the latest TWRP, to be able to flash custom ROMs right away after doing the manual upgrade.
As those named firmware zip-files in most cases you're going to find around this forum, are no longer files which are signed by HTC they can only be flashed if your device got S-OFF'd.
That's as far as a brief explanation of the term "manually" is possible.
