How to get Touch Pro 2 back to factory ROM?

Hi, recently flashed my Touch Pro 2, about to sell it and need to have it flashed back to the factory ROM. Does anyone know where I can find the ROM file and then the steps of doing this? Im trying to sell it and want to put it back to stock. Any help is appreciated, and yes I tried a search, sorry if I did miss something.
Thanks
Mike

how about HSPL? do i put the stock on back? and how

Dude there are entire threads dedicated to how to HardSPL and put it back to stock. Additionally, there is an official download from HTC's website that is the factory installed AT&T ROM. Read the very first page of the HardSPL thread. It has links to what you need to return to stock.
Alternatively, why not just sell the phone with a better ROM on it to begin with?

The phone is T-Mobile not AT&T and also some people dont want to buy a phone that has been messed with and can tell the difference in the stock ROM and a custom one.

If you are selling ebay all you need to do is be sure and clearly indicate how the phone is set up. Also, you could advertise on the selling page that you can either leave the phone as is, or flash back to stock ROM - the buyer chooses. That way you may not have to flash back to stock.

[Q] Will returning to stock clear up no imei?

I've spend the past day or so just reading these forums. There is tons of great information here. So much so that it can be overwhelming. Since I am new here, I thought I would at least ask to make sure I understand before I brick my phone.
I bought a T-999 from someone. The phone works fine but it does have some issues. Primarily, no imei is showing and the counter has been tripped. Since I don't know what this person did to the phone, I assume the best thing to do it to try to take it back to stock and start over.
I've read the sticky thread by DocHoliday and just wanted to make sure I understand before proceeding. I'm not particularly concerned about rooting the phone at this point, just getting it back to stock to see if I can clear up the imei issue and whatever else may have been done to the phone.
I have odin, the USB drivers, and the November Jelly Bean Firmware all ready to go. So now, I should be able to return the phone to stock following the sticky.
Does anyone know if this will also clear up the no imei issue or will I need to do something else to clear up that issue.
Update: Well, that didn't work. In ODIN mode it shows:
Custom Binary Download: Yes (1 count)
Imei still shows: 0/08
Any ideas?

Look in the dev section for imei injection. Only way you will get it back and get HSDPA+ back. No going back to stock will not get it back.

[Q] warranty root

I saw a similar question on this but is my warranty really voided if I rooted my sprint galaxy s3 and I could get it back by going back to 100% stock? I rooted it shortly after getting this phone. This morning I went into download mode and saw the flash count 1 and 2 lines say custom and go into about device and it says modified.

There are ways to reset those. Search qbking77 on youtube.
As far as warranty, no they will charge you your deductible for a new/refurb phone. But a Sprint store can refuse to honor their TEP program and work on a rooted device.
And that's because after a tech fixes w/e is wrong, you walk out the door and it bricks because you flash something your not suppose to. They don't want the blame to fall back on them.

You can always go back to stock and triangle-away the flash counter. I'd recommend using the Toolkit by mskip. It has the option of returning to stock unrooted and getting rid of the flash count.
As far as your primary question about warranty. Yes, your warranty is voided. That being said, I've never really heard of it being an issue. Most Sprint Tech's are pretty chill when it comes to this. You can, of course, get an uptight one who will complain and even refuse your return. But yeah, I haven't really heard of that happening too often.

Usually all carriers would check the flash tick and they'd tell you that you can not have a warranty for your phone.
But it's other times that you'd be really lucky to obtain one for your device if they won't look into it ( And they will )
and they'll look at the status of the device as well. If you want to fully go back to stock TW and get your warranty
it'd be advised to flash this.

Thank billar412 for that.
Take note this is the MB1 update, if you how ever don't like MB1 there should be an LJ7 in the forums somewhere
or just look up qbking77 guide to unroot for stock TW and he should also have a flash counter reset under his threads as well.

Thanks for the quick replies. So that quick return to stock one would bring back the warranty then? That's the one I got my eye on plus I'm craving some custom rom goodness.

I don't want to be the legalistic guy, but I wanted to point out something.
By flashing a custom recovery (i.e. gaining root access), you are voiding your claim on the warranty. There's no getting around that. But, by returning to stock and resetting your flash counter, you are making it so that no one can tell you voided the warranty.
I know it's a slight difference from what you said and many people may say I'm nit-picking, but I want people to take responsibility for flashing ROMs. It bugs me when people don't read everything, brick their phones, then try to get the carrier to pay for their mistakes (case in point).

Hey -
my question is in a similar vein.
I am "stock" but rooted and with CWM recovery.
I'm getting bugged to death with the OTA update notifications, and of course it won't run under CWM...
Best method to get it to install seems to be to restore factory recovery?
Or do you guys have other suggestions?

You never mentioned where you got your phone. I buy mine at Best Buy, and purchase their insurance. It covers EVERYTHING except loss. No deductible. No limit on number of claims. I was flashing my GS3 back and forth between a few roms, and somehow messed it up. It was stuck in a boot loop. They couldn't get it to boot either. They sent it out, and I had a new one 4 days later. Only new because they had just come out, and didn't have refurbs yet

Just Rooted my GS4, now I have to send it back...

what do i do if i rooted my galaxy s4 but have to send it back to t-mobile for an exchange now?? My pbone went on sale big time (up front cost anyway ) and we can really use that money, so i got on the phone, and the only way to take advantage is to send them the phome i ordered just 2-3 weeks ago, and have them send me a newbie... First of all, they sent me the wrong color (i wanted the white , but they sent me black) it did grow on me i must say tho... I have already rooted this phone to get some control over some aspects of the device, and now i am not sure if i can send this one back this way?? Has anyone ever been in this situation with t-mobile and the Galaxy S-series devices that could give me some advice?? This is my opportunity to try the color i originally wanted, get the payment options that are best suited for me, and since i have spent a couple/few weeks with the phone already, i feel that a brand new device could be setup even better tailored to/for myself, now that i know what i am doing (this is my first Android device EVER, so the platform is BRAND NEW to me, every bit of it)... I am having fun with the new platform tho, and everything seems to be working great, but a few re-dos on the initial setup can only make it better, if it is possible with a device that has been rooted already (sending it back to them and still getting credited back for it...
Thanks in advance to any and all that would help with this matter...

you can Odin back to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258628
there is also an app called Triangle Away that can reset the flash counter to fully erase any evidence of having rooted.

Did you install a a custom recovery and flash custom roms or did you just root? If you installed a custom recovery you have to use triangle away.

I thought if you ODIN back to stock it reset everything, even any flash counters.

No you would need to reset it (w Triangle Away) before Odin back to stock.

Need help unrooting and going back to stock on my samsung galaxy s III

hey guys. I am kind of a noob, but i have been rooting my phone for awhile. I installed cyanogen installer and let it do all the work and i am having a difficult time getting it off because it is simply not performing well on my phone and I would like to just go back to the way it was. I have heard some complications about upgrading to 4.3 and then rooting and not being able to unroot and go back to stock samsung. Any help would be great. Odin has been failing and I just feel stuck. How can i unroot and go back to 4.3 on my galaxy s 3? Thanks in advance and sorry if this has already been answered. I am just having a hard time getting everything in order.

Thank you so much guys. I honestly bricked my phone earlier this week trying a different way and thankfully got it out of its endless loop. This worked. One more thing though. MY gps has gone to Sh*t. Any fixes for that? thanks!!

Glad to know it worked for you. Not sure about the GPS. You may try doing a factory reset to see if this will help.
