I need to take my phone into Sprint but first need to get rid of Revolutionary and Cyanogen 7.
I backed up my stock ROM before I uploaded any other ROMs. Can I just boot the back up I made? I would then just need to turn S-ON, correct? Is there anything else that I am missing?

I am currently rooted and I think I messed a few things up. Can someone provide me with the stock Sprint RUU, and can I just put it all back to stock and start over with a fresh root?
Thanks

US Cellular has been promising Froyo for the CDMA Desire since October, and I'm tired of waiting so I'm going to root it and flash a Froyo ROM myself. I read through the unrEVOked documentation, and it mentions that if I want to install official updates in the future I need to restore the recovery image, but it doesn't tell me how to get it. How do I pull the stock recovery image from my phone so that I can flash it back on should I need to?
You can't actually backup a whole rom without rooting first. You need the custom recovery to do a nandroid backup which will back up the whole rom. If anything does go wrong or you need to reinstall then you can just use an RUU to do it. US Cellular doesn't have an RUU yet but you can use other CDMA RUU's.
So am I to understand that there is no way to back up the stock recovery, as I would have to overwrite the existing recovery just to do backups in the first place?
Yep, root access is needed to back the whole ROM up
To be honest, it's better with root anyway and a lot better when you install a custom rom.... from my experience anyway.
My usb port is broken and I need to take it to verizon. Can anyone point out a good guide on how to revert my Inc2 back to stock. I'm running Android 2.3.5 rooted. Or can I just flash rmk's gingersense debloated and take it to the store?
Please tell me you made a nandroid backup of your factory system before you started modding it? If so, just boot into recovery and restore your factory backup. If not, you'll have to find a stock ROM and install it via a barcode scanner or something.
RMK's stock ROM link.
I do have a copy of rmk debloated rom. Back from august or something like that. But that was only after I took S-off. Should I just load that back on and not unroot?
Just find a stock ruu then use dropbox to get it on your phone. Rename then flash.

I just loaded rmk's stock gingerbread on there. It still has s-off though. So I should be good to take it back to the store now right? I tried my friend's charger at work to see if would charge and it wont. On the pc it keeps disconecting, tried 2 different cables. I know the battery is still good. Hopefully they don't make me pay 600 bucks for a new phone.
So today im going to flash a new rom on my Dinc. It was rooted before but the SD card that was in it is the one here in my tbolt. Can I flash a new rom on the Dinc? Or will it not work? Is it still rooted? How do I find out? I thought I could do a factory wipe on the phone to make it "stock" but my phone still ended up with the old rom. What should I do? I don't want to brick my phone. My gf will be unsing it soon.

If you still have a custom recovery on your phone, it's rooted. In order to return to the stock ROM, you must flash the stock ROM. If you want to go completely back to stock and unroot, then follow the return to stock directions. Here, let me google that for you.
Need advice badly. New to this. I updated my i747att phone to 4.3. Mannaged to root and add a custom rom. I back using my backup. After trying another custom rom I think I bricked my phone. Lost my backup and everything Just get the blue logo screen. Can get to in to recovery mode but have no backups, I erased everything. Need to know how to download and install stock rom with 4.3 update. I read you cant go back to original once updated to 4.3. I just want to go back to stock so I can sell phone. I have a new s4 now
