Need to go from AmonRa to Stock Recovery

So, here's where i'm at now after this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732505
I still cannot use any usb functionality other than charging, and i'm running unrooted OTA1.47 now.
I'm at the point where i'm needing to get the AmonRa recovery off and the factory recovery back in place, but i can't find out how to do it.
I see a few posts that say to run the ruu, but that involves running the exe while the phone is connected to a windows workstation through usb. With no USB functionality, i'm kind of at a loss on how to proceed.
Any assistance or direction pointing would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Fixed it.
Using the RUU for 1.47 worked.
I had to open it, then on the first page select "View Readme", then "Save As" for the read me to figure out what directory the temp files went to and what they were named. Looked for rom.zip, copied to my sd card as PC36img.zip. After that, powered on using Power Button and Down volume and let the phone do the rest.
Grabbed the RUU link from here: http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/

If you have a card reader/adapter, use your sdcard with the reader and plug it into your pc. Download and move the zip to the card, more specifically the PC36IMG.zip file. Pu the sdcard back in to your phone. Hold Vol up and power the phone, and let it load the zip file.

Isn't that still a rooted rom?
I actually loaded a 1.47 stock rom, using the PC36IMG.zip way of doing it. It didn't return me to the factory screen after selecting Recovery, and still loaded the AmonRa one.
I'll try that with that specific file next. I'm downloading RUU_Supersonic_1.32.651.6_Radio_1.39.00.05.31_release_171253_signed.exe right now to try and extract the factory rom and try that way.

Bump. Still haven't found a way.

When you hold volume down and press power, before you select recovery check on the top and see what version of hboot you have. If you have .76 that means you unlocked the nand and from my understanding this is not reversible yet.

.79 right now i believe.

All you would need then is a copy of the stock recovery and flash it and that will replace AmonRA. I may have been wrong about un-rooting after unlocking nand. Check out this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=6783326

I went through that one, downloaded the ruu, ran it, browsed to my temp files for the zip image, put it on the phone, and received the "older version" error when it tried to read and flash it via renaming it to PC36img.zip
I'm trying to find the 1.47 RUU to try those same steps, but haven't had much luck.
Of course, i'm trying to work and browse the forum at the same time, might not be the best plan. lol

Just found it.
Downloading the 1.47 RUU now. Hopefully this can take care of putting the recovery back to oem.

Good luck and please post results. I am interested in this as well in case I ever have to do it for insurance purposes.

[Q] Newest Hboot Version

Right now I'm running Hboot version 0.77.0000 and im just wondering what the most recent version of hboot is because virtous 3.2.0 is saying i need 0.92 to use it
thanks

.92 I'm pretty sure is the newest

I'm searching everywhere. if you can find a link please let us know so I can go download that damn thing...
Found it: http://dougpiston.com/files/Hboot/PB...-0.92.0000.zip
Now I just need the md5 before I try to use this file. remember to rename it and watch the extension.
Can someone please confirm the MD5 sum? this is what I get from the download, but I cant confirm that this is even the right file:
54A82417C62C8B3DDACA785EBDCE6BFB *PB31IMG.zip (IS THIS .92?)
6B665D591D8A02D3165C0F0A67E521D0 *PB31IMG-hboot-0.92.0000.zip (IS THIS .92?)
the difference between these two files is 2MB in size. one of these two files is not correct... need help identifying the correct .92 HBOOT please.

Thanks for the info. Do I just have to name it pmg......
Zip or something like that and just flash it. And can anyone confirm that link?

it should be a .zip file. the name of the file should be PB31IMG.ZIP
Also, you will have to restore the nandroid backup you make prior to flashing hboot as your phone will not boot (boot to recovery, restore from backup) the HBOOT will erase the kernel requiring a restore.
But lets confirm that the link I'm providing is the actual .92 hash before applying, else we can be bricking our phones today.

special thanks to rmk40 for the file location. Here is the info
Hboot Upgrade Instructions
As of Virtuous 3.2.0, hboot 0.92 is now required. This hboot shipped with the original Froyo OTA for the Incredible.
1. Download this file and place it at root of your sdcard.
2. Boot into the bootloader. There are several ways to do this. If you are already booted into Android, use Quickboot and select the Bootloader option. You can also use adb by typing "adb reboot bootloader". Or, simply power down the device. Once it is off, hold the volume down button and then press power.
3. Once in the bootloader, select the first option from the menu "bootloader". You should see a progress bar on the right side of the screen. If you do not, you did not perform step #1 correctly or your sdcard is not formatted FAT32.
4. You will then be prompted to confirm flashing boot, bootloader and recovery. Hit volume up to confirm and then reboot.
5. At this point hboot is upgraded. I recommend reinstalling Virtuous (either via ROM Manager or manually) just to be safe.

THANK YOU!
I've spent the last 4 hours trying to accomplish this.
Update- I may have spoke to soon. After reboot I now find that my touchscreen isn't working at all. I can boot into hboot, recovery, and all that jazz. Get to the unlock screen, and in some spots there are tiny black lines running through the display. I am wondering if this is because I may have an SLCD screen or vice versa that is incompatible? I am not sure what screen I have, would there be a way to tell?
- I tried wiping dalvik cache and factory resetting, this was said on another forum. Now I am stuck at the HTC splash screen. Any help???
- Never mind. Forgot to use recovery, did a restore, and everything is just snazzy, 0.92 and all. Thanks again! =)

Attempted to downgrade and root;success but not sure, help please.

Okay this is the first thing I did to my phone, Downgrade:

6. Type this command into your cmd prompt (btw you should be back with the normal C:\RootVision>)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
7. Once on your white screen with colourful text you can go ahead and press the power button ONCE
8. Now just wait for the rom to install and verify. If you get INCORRECT CID your gold card doesn’t work or your CID doesn't match and you'll need a goldcard. (Go to Step 1. and make a goldcard for your phone)
9. Go ahead and install the rom when it asks you.
10. You are done downgrading and can now begin the Rooting process.
I got to these steps, I did step 6 and 7, once I pressed the power button once, I waited and said “verifying PCIMG10.zip” with more text under it but I couldn’t read it cause it went by fast. After that it didn’t do anything. So I assumed I downgraded and it worked and then I just pressed the “power down” option.
UPDATE: I went back into recovery and check it says "verifying PCIMG10.zip" and it says "no image!"
Immediately after I did that:

Can someone point me in the right direction on what to do now?

Just go ahead and install the ROM. The worst that's going to happen is a soft brick and there are guides out there that can help you recover from that. Worst case scenario is that you'd be forced to get the Doubleshot when it comes out.

Well by following that guide to get S-Off and Root access you should now install ClockWorkMod for your phone. Then from there install any ROM you want via ClockWorkMod recovery. Although, you should definitely do a nandroid backup via clockworkmod before you flash a rom but thats up to you.

Hey buddy i had the same problem as you..but i fixed it.the reason your getting wrong image is because you have to check the PC10IMG.zip file on your sd card. rename it so the booting will load..for me that worked I renamed it to PC10IMG.. on its own..then was able to reboot DZ and now on old stock rom..i was on 1.82xx thanks to the guide.

unrooting

sup everyone. Heres my dilemma. My speaker on my htc evo 4g was crackling (damaged). I have extended warranty but my phone was rooted. i started to unroot it. Put pc36img zip on the root directory and i get a fail-pu,partition up date fail. It does not want to take the update. I have read several and tried to run some of the recommended "how to unroot" procedures. End up with the same problem. Any other suggestions. The s-off. Radio-2.15.00.11.19.
thanks

Unrooting
1. http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/forever ; Scroll down to the FAQs, then download the unrevoked s-on zip. This places the security back on your phone, because rooting makes it s-off, and if s-on, quickest way to tell your phone was rooted.
2. Flash that file from recovery, then boot back into the bootloader [vol+down while turning phone on] and verify until its s-on.
3. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19699565/3.70 RUU Zip.zip ; rename that file to PC36IMG, place on the root of your sdcard [not in a folder] then flash it in the bootloader. When the scan that normally does nothing, it'll detect that file. Apply the update then reboot. That's a stock 3.70 firmware file, it'll take you back to stock, unrooted, s-on.

downloaded s-0n. took out sd and mounted it on my computer. put the s-on on the root directory. removed and put it in my phone. volume down and powered up. hit recovery. results: wrong image. triangle red exclamation point.

The problem there is you don't have a recovery loaded. Stock recovery [no recovery] is marked by the triangle and red !.
Go here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026
Read the first green text , 'bootloader way' to install the recovery. Then repeat the steps of booting into recovery and flashing the s-on after you have amon-ra installed.

Thanks. I followed the the Bootloader way - - Thanks Tiffany84 ^^
Place PC36IMG.zip on the root of your sd card.
Boot the phone into the bootloader by powering the phone down, then press the power and the volume down buttons at the same time.
Once the phone boots into the bootloader the phone will automatically recognize the zip file. It will ask if you would like to update, select yes and let it do it's thing and you will be good to go.
results: radio v2-failed and partition update fail!
update fail!

Well. After working it I find another file: PC36IMG_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.30.651.3_Radio_2.15. 00.09.01_NV_1.77_003_release_157088-signed. Renamed it PC36IMG and unplugged the usb cable connection from my phone to pc and voila! It took the stock image. I am not sure which one allowed me to load the image update. Would you know?
Now that that part is done i rebooted and the s-off is still there. Should I load the s-on the root directory like you said. I dont want to freak up again.
Many thanks

So mine has tried to load this renamed PC36IMG twice now and seems to be stuck in some kind of loop in HBOOT. This is concerning.
Now it's updating (Parsing) for the second time. I hope it gets it one of these times. I'd rather not buy a new phone

Hello,
I am in the same boat. I recently purchased a EVO4G from a friend. The phone was rooted and I would like it to be unrooted. I've tried to unroot myself but it hasn't work.

8. Enjoy newly unrooted phone
Zip file will replace EVERYTHING. Stock splash screen, boot animation, up to date OTA release, recovery, S-ON, and HBOOT.
I used this method last night when unrooting my phone because I thought I would have to take my phone into Sprint today. However, running this zip happened to resolve the issue I was having so I turned around and rooted again.
I would give credit to whomever it was I saw this unroot process from but unfortunately it was late and I was sleep deprived so I do not remember. Either way, I do not take credit for it whatsoever. If I come across the one who suggested it I will edit this post and give the credit that user is due.

OK, I figured out that, for some reason, the MBP was not reading the file as a .zip so I actually zipped it, loaded it onto the SD card and went into Bootloader. It found the file as a bar on the right side of the phone displayed and began to fill up. During this process, the following was on the screen:
Loading
PC36DIAG.ZIP
No Image
Loading
PC36DIAG.nbh
No image
Then after the blue bar fills the screen changes for a second and it says Parsing
Then it goes back to the Fastboot screen.
Any ideas?
Also, someone that unroots phones told me the issue I am having is called a "Soft Brick". Can anyone help?!
Thanks

What you are seeing are not the files you are trying to flash. You are trying to flash a PC36IMG.zip file, not a PC36DIAG file. You said you zipped the file on your own. You have to make sure that when it is zipped it is done so as a storage file and not with any type of compression. If you compress the file when it zips then it will not flash. So remove the zip file from your sd card, rezip it using ONLY storage method, recopy it to your SD card and then try to flash it. Make sure it is named PC36IMG.zip EXACTLY as I have written it. Also, make sure there are no other PC36IMG.zip files on your SD card at all. Otherwise you can cause problems.

Using that method will send you COMPLETELY back to stock. That method modifies your splash screen, boot animation, operating system, hboot version, radio update, and a few other things. When you flash that file you will be 100% stock, unrooted, and up to date.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Should I run the file from the link above?

The red triangle means that you do not have a recovery installed on your phone. If you can get into HBoot then use the method I posted above with the PC36IMG.zip file. That will take care of everything for you in one simple and painless step (including the red triangle).

What you are seeing are not the files you are trying to flash. You are trying to flash a PC36IMG.zip file, not a PC36DIAG file. You said you zipped the file on your own. You have to make sure that when it is zipped it is done so as a storage file and not with any type of compression. If you compress the file when it zips then it will not flash. So remove the zip file from your sd card, rezip it using ONLY storage method, recopy it to your SD card and then try to flash it. Make sure it is named PC36IMG.zip EXACTLY as I have written it. Also, make sure there are no other PC36IMG.zip files on your SD card at all. Otherwise you can cause problems.

Thank you for the help and now pardon my ignorance. What do you mean by zipping using a storage method? Is this normally an option in zip programs? Right now I only have the zip program that comes with OSX and The Unarchiver but I believe that is only for unzipping. Do you have any suggestions? EDIT: I found a program called Keka. Under the options, I picked "Store". I ran the zip, transferred the file to the memory card and the phone did not recognize the file. I even tried to download the file again from the post above and rezipped it using "Store", transferred it and tried again...same result. I am stuck.
In the past, I've tried to rename the file PCIMG36.zip without zipping it and the phone could not find the file.
Thanks
