well, I rooted my HTC wildfire last week and flashed cyanogenmod 7.1 using the guidelines from cyanogenmode wiki using revolutionary. but now I want to go the stock ROM and want my device unrooted and I don't want the revolutionary bootloader or clockwork recovery. I want my phone to be good as new. how can I do that? and I don't know if this is important but I had s-off even before I used revolutionary and my android version was something like 2.2.1.405.7 and i have a backup soon after using revolutionary ,before rooting and before
flashing cm 7. and can I use the backup to go back to stock ROM and if I can do I need to clear all data and cache just like I did before flashing cm7? and thanks in advance.
There are a few post that may help you:

Good luck
I did that but...
thanks for the info. I followed the instructions ran the Ruu and updated hboot. but now whenever I boot to the bootloader it searches for some file and shows something like PC49DIAG not found and when I try recovery it shows a picture of a phone with a red triangle.nothing happens. what can I do about the missing file and stock recovery?
There is no missing file, the diag is something you place on your SD to open a menu, its not needed unless you are using an xtc clip I think.
The recovery has been reset back to stock recovery if you press volume up and power on that red triangle screen, I think that's the combination to take you into stock recovery.

Thanks . I opened recovery menu. But it showed at the bottom "E: Can't open/cache/recovery/command". Is it something I should be worried about?

The file might be corrupt.Download the RUU(http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz) and try again.
If that doesn't work.Extract the recovery(recovery.img)from RUU.
If that doesn't work either,try it through ADB.
Good luck :good:
Thanks but I only wanted to know if it will pose any problem

I rooted using unrevoked and unrevoked forever, but I wasn't able to flash cyanogenmod, so I read up on NAND unlock and flashed the PC36IMG.zip from toast's method, but now it always restarts into bootloader and i cant get the os to load. Please help!
You should already have nand unlocked if you did unrevoked. All you you need is the eng hboot fix. Flash that zip in recovery , you can find it in dev section, then you should be able to flash CM hope that helps

This happened to me also. Go into recovery, run the mod zip again. If that doesn't work for you, you never saw me.
when i go into recovery it says E:can't open /cache/recovery/command
so i dont know how to flash anything
oh I see well try running ruu then just do unrevoked one click and youll be set just when you try to flash CM again after that make sure you flash hboot fix or it won't work.
Edit
Just read your post carefully lol czn you go into bootloader

I had this exact issue after I loaded that PC136 file and installed it on my EVO. I wasn't able to do anything but load the bootloader. I finally had enough after 5 hours of no help, and found the shipping ROM and reinstalled the original ROM on my EVO.
i have since re-rooted and will not even dare to go back at this time to try that mess!
People can get you rooted, but they don't know how to get you out of a hole!

+1 on that. I had the same prob. That did the trick
Okay thanks I'm gonna give it a try
Once that's done will I have to go back to clockwork recovery to restore back to current state
Tried it didn't work. Does anyone have any other tips ?
Um what's your hboot version. Because I know you have to get .76 for cm6 but idk about other roms but try that. First tell me what your hboot is

my guess would be when you rooted your s boot is still on. it has to be off in order to flash non sense roms. try flashing caulkios http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745205
also go to settings then hardware information. what is your hardware version. once you have this power your phone off then turn it on by holding power down button and the power button this should boot you into bootloader. at top does it say supersonic blah blah blah s-off or s-on. also right below that gives hboot. 0.93.0000 is mine. once i know this i can help more. best guess is s boot is still on though.
Hardware version 003

Try to flash recovery again with rom manager.

rom manager can't flash recovery. Use unrevoked to flash a permanent recovery.

You can do a little search before asking, there are a lot of tutorials on how to use unrevoked.
Rooted my desire yesterday S-offed and everything was working fine. I attempted to flash a custom Rom and now all I recieve in the HTC screen. I have tryed installing several roms and nothing works. I can get into the recovery with no issues. Just I cannot get into any roms. Any Magix fixes I can try? Or should I just Fastboot and start over?
Edit. Fastboot doesnt work. But I can get into the CWM Recovery. Which is also the newest version.
And you always followed installation guides for all roms carefully (like sd card) and flashed version that corresponds with your hboot?

Yup Followed everything. I have done this all on my incredible 100 times. So I am aware of the steps to get Roms going.

Fastboot just has the bootloader option. Nothing for going back to stock. And were on the Stock HBOOT.
Correction Fastboot works just I cannot use it to go to stock. Is there any quick way to get to the stock image?

I didnt know that! I shall give it a try and update on here and thank you if it works. What is Alpha Rev? A Devoloper or something?
You basically they specialize in s off, and recovery images etc. What sort of ROMs are you using? Cm7r2 is best for most Roms on the desire atm

How could you S-OFF your phone without hearing from AlphaRev?
That is a good point? But suppose you could miss it, it isn't the same site.

Superwipe is a good idea so I'm glad your @ least doing this, it may be easier to help if you give more info, is this happening from the very first custom rom, after root? What method did you use to root? Can you write down everything on bootloader screen (mostly want to know ship soff or eng soff) can you name your recovery? Can you name the roms you have tried?

Glad U're helping me sir. This problem is there from the day I rooted and installed my first rom cyanogen mod 7 Actually mine is ship s- off, I used the wiki.cyanogen g2rooting guide and another one for getting sd card golden. First I used clockwork mod recovery now I'm using the latest in 4ext recovery. Now I'm currently using andromadus mimicry 1.5.0 its working perfectly with many softwares until I restart if I do 'hot reboot' no problem occurs
These are the list of roms I tried and problem starts wen I restart or switch off my mobile and then switch on:
1.andromadus audacity beta5
2.cyanogen mod rc9.0
3.Android_SpeedDaemon_Fantasia_v1.0.0_vision
4. G2slim1.6
5. MikRunny-v1.0-DeOdex-signed
6. RCMix.Energized.7.26.2012.Fixed.Kernel_Ver2
7. Strawmetal-1.Mi.V2.0
8. sensewich1
And many others too
Plz help!

Well you are best to get true s-off with an engineering spl. I assume you either missed a step in the guide you followed or you went with the official htc unlocked bootloader. Either way you can fix this, and I suggest you do
Pretty much you need to relock the bootloader, then downgrade, reroot and flash the eng hboot along with everything else.
The best guides to follow to root and soff are
Cyanogen wiki
Xda wiki
Strawmetals pdf guide.
You can google search these easy or if I get a minute then ill link you. But first you need to relock your bootloader
I believe it is something like
Fastboot oem lock bootloader
I can't recall of hand but nipqer has a guide on this
If I get some time ill get you links, but for now just search a bit and read up, good luck!

Just boot into fastboot mode
Type fastboot devices, if you see yours then proceed
fastboot oem lock
Now do
fastboot reboot-bootloader
This should bring you back to hboot, if it says ship s-on then your good and you can proceed to root and gain true s-off
If you continue to have trouble log onto freenode irc #g2root, just google it if you can't find it, there is a link in the xda wiki for rooting the vision
