Hey everyone,
I need some quick guidance. I'll be moving over to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus within the next few days (when it arrives in the mail) and I need to get my Evo 4G back to stock and get the root off (as if I just purchased it from Sprint) because I'll be selling it back to Sprint for a little account credit.
This is currently what shows in my HBOOT:
SUPERSONIC EVT3 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.97.0000
MICROP-041F
TOUCH PANEL-ATMELC03_16AC
RADIO-2.15.00.0808

Can anyone point me in the right direction of how to return it to 100% stock with no root access?
Thanks a lot!
Ricky
Your gunna have to downgrade your radio to 11.19, or earlier. Then you can use unrevoked forever, and use an ruu to downgrade back to froyo. You could just try using a 3.70 ruu, it may upgrade your hboot, and turn security on automatically.
Can you downgrade the radio just by flashing an earlier version?
Yes.. if using recovery to flash, remember it will reboot once during the install process after you select reboot now... Do not pull the battery, just wait... Or brick your phone will be.
Alright, I downgraded my radio to the 2.15.00.11.19 version and used Unrevoked S-ON and it looks like my radio and S-ON are exactly as they should be.
Where do I find the RUU executable to run on my PC to restore the phone now?

Hi,
I just received a couple of new Desires with HBOOT 0.93.0001 preinstalled.
Has anyone seen this before, and is it safe to root?
Thanks,
Adam
Go into settings and about and list firmware details.u might have a new radio too.
Hoot prob 4 slcd tho
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
You don't root a bootloader. But if you have Froyo, you will not be able to root it. You'll have to downgrade the software first.
Did you get the Desire from Vodafone UK? I know their new 2.2 OTA update changes the HBOOT to 0.93 apparently (which can't be rooted at present)
Thanks for the quick responses.
The Desires did indeed come from VF UK, and yes they are SLCD.
The radio version is the same as the one I've seen on this site: 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2
Looks like I'll have wait until one of the hacking ninjas works out an easy way to get a root applied to a Froyo desire...

1. Can it be rooted
2. Is it slcd or amoled
It can be rooted my desires hboot is the same. I think its amoled but you can ring HTC and they will tell you.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
If it was just the mobo and you were on 0.80 then you're on AMOLED...either way you can root without issues
Yes it can bee rooted mine is also 0.93
look at this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=776696
same hboot,radio and slcd and i was able to root using unrevoked 3.21
Tried unrevoked 3.21 (4 - 5 times) and it would not root it. Spoke to guys on irc and they dont know why it did not work.
Wondering if I should go down the downgrade 2.2 to 2.1 then root then use a custom rom back to 2.2. I want to try the cyanogen rom really.
OH and thanks guys
What happens (or not) when you try?
Bascially it says its doing it but it aint.
Waiting for boot when its already rebooted.
Pushing recovery when its not.
connect device.

Any success yet?
Did you buy yours with this version of Hboot or was it upgraded via OTA? when?
a couple of mates have same problem can't root 0.93.0001
Yeah all sorted now thanks. Followed the "how to" at the unlocker
Rooted with unrevoked
Rom manager failed to flash 2 or 3 different roms so I flashed with Leedroid 2.2f using clockwork.
reports that you can flash cyanogen rom with amom ra bit not tried that way yet.
Happy with leedroid for now any way.
I had to send my .80 boot back to HTC for repair (GPS problem) and it came back with a new mobo and software.
You can root if you follow the correct "How to" some miss a few things out

Just rooted mine last night, no problems.
Am on T-Mobile UK, HBOOT 0.93.0001, radio etc all same as yours, all latest s/w from TMUK as I had just received it back from repair recently.
My steps:
Used Unrevoked 3.22.
Download htc sync, install, then uninstall the sync application, leaving the drivers on. Didn't need to mess with hboot drivers in my case.
Attached device, connected in disk drive mode with usb debugging enabled.
Ran Unrevoked.
That was it.
My PC runs Windows 7 Professional 32-Bit.
I follow the same steps still same hanging with "Waiting for root... (safe to restart if this doesn't work). My ROM is:RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC__ARA_2.32.415.3_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157343_signed.exe
I was following [GUIDE] How to root Android 2.2 on the EVO 4G. I did everything the guide told me to and when I did the reboot bootloader it the PC36IMG.zip and let me apply it after that point it continues to go into HBOOT and I have tried searching all over and I cannot seem to find a clear cut answer on how to fix it.
This is the info on my screen;

You may have flashed the wrong pc36img, try running the RUU from here . You won't have root at first but it will give you 3.29 which is easy to root.
Which root guide should I use for the version of RUU you recommend?

If the 3.29 RUU installs for you, Unrevoked 3.21 will most likely work to root.
unrevoked is one click, but then you have to learn how to stand while you are already on your feet. i reccomend doing it manually. maybe take one more shot, and if that fails, ruu and use unrevoked.
Will I be able to load a custom rom after or do i still need to do more?
Never mind I finally figured out why it would not work I had to do unrevoked twice before it finally worked. Thanks for your guys help.
I have been attempting to turn my s on, have flashed the unrevoked s-on tool at least 18 times with no success. I have tried clockwork which comes up with an error, and I have tried amon(2.3) which says it works fine, but I cannot get s-on.
If I flash stock RUU would s go back on? Any suggestions to getting s-on after multiple of failed attempts?
Yes I have check that unrevoked son tool is compatible with my versions of my baseband.
How did u root in the first place? Radio? Hboot version? Need more info

I unrooted from the original unrevoked method(first day release) when I needed my speaker replaced, after which I rooted back using the 2.3.3 method with the needed the code special thing(had to go to some website to generate a code).

See the big words at the top that say "Revolutionary?" You're rooted with revolutionary. Not unrEVOked. Use the revolutionary unroot method and you'll be good to go.
Here > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1245649
Again, you need the revolutionary unroot tool, whichi in this case is the undo hex mod, which is in that thread.
I originally rooted my phone with Revolutionary. I kept the Sprint stock ROM. I want to give this phone to a family member and wanted to receive the latest OTA update.
Following instructions I found here, I achieved S-ON. Here is my boot information.

However, whenever I try the Sprint OTA update, I still get the triangle with the exclamation point.
Did I do something wrong? Do I need to flash a RUU - if so, which one? Please advise on what I need to do to update the phone?
BTW...the phone works just fine as is, but I would like to give my family member the ability to install OTA updates.
Thank you so much for helping with this issue.

You will need the 4.67 RUU.
When I needed to unroot. I flashed the modified 6.17 HBOOT and then ran the RUU through Fastboot. I was back to stock.
every single hboot zip doesnt work and all the RUU file ive tried off the web including here have all said bad file..im sooo frustrated can someone please help
@klm56
If you have issues unrooting, you also could just flash the latest stock ROM. I'm sure the Evo won't be getting any more OTAs, given that it's already EOL according to sprint.

Morning,
I'm new to the rooting and unrooting procedures. I bought my phone rooted from a freind and until recently its been having hardware issues that are not being caused by the os. I can make the phone do whatever is needed with enough time just need the correct instructions and files...
I'm not sure exactly what is needed but what i'm currently running 2.6.37.6-cyanogenmod-g8913be8shade or Cyanogenmod-7.1.0. Recovery mode is Build RA-Supersonic-v3.11.gnm and bootloader.

With all that information being said I'm not really sure which instructions to follow whether using revolutionary or unrevoked. And what files i need to download specifically.
I know how to flash new roms and that i need a pc36img.zip to reset the bootloader and the os currently installed.
I need to take my phone to sprint and most likley get a new phone or warranty it so i need to return it back to sprints roms and S-ON.
Thanks for any help in advance.
