You have to use HTCdev.com to unlock the bootloader. If you want nand unlock (s-off) follow this guide to get s-off after unlocking your bootloader with HTC dev http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...-18-HBOOT-with-HTCDev-com-No-More-Watermark!-)

Don't know what you did to downgrade/unroot nor do I know the error, so I can't really help you there. Maybe a little more info?
I used the DI_unroot.zip and it downgraded me to 2.1 and it also got rid of my super user and wifi tethering app. I waited for the ota but nothing so I went ahead and downloaded the official ota update file from Verizon to try to update manually but the installation aborted. I know how to update the incredible because I manually updated my girlfriend's incredible. Idk what could be the problem.

If you are sending it in for warranty why do you care if the OTA is applied or not?
Just send it in.
I figured that if I got the update that would mean that I got rid of the root completely i don't want there to be any traces of root.

I don't think this is possible! I've searched everywhere...on here, other forums and under my couch and NOTHING...hahahahaha....What you're thinking of is something like the iPhone has called 3G unrestrictor where it tricks apps into thinking they're on WiFi instead of 3G! This would be great if someone actually made an app like this because that way we can all use Skype on 3G over here in the USA.........sorry dude, try again in about a year or so, maybe some developer might port over the iPhone's 3G unrestrictor to the android community.
O no there has to be a way...or ill be saddddd lol

Just to answer this question, there is, you just need to be pretty tech savvy and a few hours on your hands. I have a Mac so I can't really help you with your issue, sorry bro
Are you in charge only mode after connecting USB? USB debugging enabled?

[Q]What program do you prefer to tether 4g or 3g

At a hotel looking to avoid some nasty wifi charge, have full 4g and 3g what are my best options for apps? What would e4gt-xda do? Thanks in advace!

Thr Sprint hotspot hack baked into every ROM.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Yeah im finding that pretty good, is there any 4g comparable apps?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
if u r rooted and have a custom kernel you can flash aio mod found in the developers section it has a hacked sprint hotspot apk which allows you to use the 4g you are already paying for without forking out extra money for the hotspot
if you are rooted you can try using android wifi tether from http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list just download the one with the most downloads...
if you are not rooted go into the android market on your phone and download clockwork tether its a free two week trial...please note you will also have to download a seperate program to run on your computer which you will obviously have to download from you phone and transfer to your computer...the links to this are on the application page in the android market...i will mention that i just recently learned that our phones have difficulty download certain file types...to get around this download "download all" which is in the market for free...it does just what the name implies....
i personally recommend using AIO which is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390304
if your not rooted clockwork tether is your only option

if you have the hotspot hack it already uses 4g...if you only want to use the hotspot hack disregard the link i gave you for AIO and use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394371 instead
you still need root and a custom kernel for this

Wifi tether who has it working what app

Does anyone know if they have wifi tether what app are u using if so
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
Long story short. Wireless tether for root works. BUT it'll kill WiFi. You can only use one or the other per reboot. Unless something has changed.
Edit. On ZVB anyway

WiFi Tether for Root, or Wireless? I have WiFi Tether for Root but it requires a slew of steps to work, I've read.
Haven't gotten it to work with the suggested settings, but haven't bothered spending the time to utilize a workaround.

Each device is different. You should look for support for the device in question rather than something completely different.
Try device profile = generic wlan(0)
Setup method = netmasterd
Reload wireless driver checked
