Returning for warranty, full stock?

What is the best way to unroot? I have to send my phone back for warranty, I'm 16 so ill have to use my moms credit card and ill never hear the end of it if they charge her cause they know my phone is rooted. I need S-ON stock hboot stock radio(if it matters) and stock ROM, I read the guide on the unlocker.com but there's massive amount of comments saying they had problems or it didn't work. Any suggestions?

Thanks so much, when I do it does it matter or would it make more sense if I updated to gingerbread before I send it in?

As long as its a stock rom it shouldn't matter, maybe try find the closest or exact rom it first came with.

Yeah get the OTA if its offered.
If you look in the android development sub forum there is a guide written by Setherio to downgrade from the latest gingerbread roms to froyo to root.

[Q] Need an Orange UK Nand backup

Does anyone have a nand backup of an Orange UK ROM? My Phone is a new-ish desire (PVT4) with a amoled screen.
I need to send the phone back for warranty work but didn't backup the default ROM and am unable to find a stock orange nand to restore. ( I did find one but the phone would not boot up, just sat at the HTC logo screen )
Hope someone can help me
Thanks.

There are no orange RUU's. Use a WWE one

I know there are no RUUs, That's why I asked for a rom backup. If anyone has an Orange rom (rooted or not) then could you please do a backup using clockwork or RA and post a link.
Thanks

You don't need it. Just flash a wwe ruu. Htc service centre won't have a problem with it. I've sent at least 5 handsets for repair this way.

The 2.3.3 from HTCdev.com is definitely warranty covered. They do state that 2.2 wwe aren't covered unless you should be on that so theres a risk there, but not with 2.3

Hi mate.
I been thinking about sending my desire back for a while as its got an overheating problem, I'm just waiting till closer to the end of my warrenty.
There is a guide on xda somewhere, I'll try and find the link, basically someone uploaded a eclair image, then you update the official froyo update over the top and trouble are back to stock.
Its takes some work to find it but it is out there. I saved the files somewhere so I'll look around but use Google and you can find it.

His phone is slcd. This will brick it. Also apparently it doesn't work any more. Not that it matters as its no longer required
Like already stated just flash 2.3.3 as its covered by warranty.

What's wrong with removing the link yourself?

Look up "attn1 ace advanced hack kit" in google. He has his work hosted off of xda but is the best method IMO.

[Q] Does Network Unlocked = Bootloader unlocked?

I bought a DHD that is networked "unlocked". Is that the same thing as being bootloader unlocked?
If I was to use the Easy Ace Root Kit would I still need to unlock the bootloader with it or if they are the same thing, do I have to relock it first?
cheers

Network unlocked is a different thing than bootloader. Please refer to the hack kit in desire hd android development

Go home NiCK.JaY, you're drunk
OP, Hack Kit is retired. Network unlocked means that you can use any network's SIM Card in it. Bootloader is something else. You night want to do a quick search
