Trying to avoid a brick! Quick help.

I got myself into a interesting situation. A quick answer would be greatly appreciated:
1. I'm rooted.
2. Trying to install the OTA so I can run 2.2 the right way.
3. I started a thread asking for help because I was confused on unrooting my phone. Didn't get much help, a quick flame, and last someone chimed in to install the OTA from Rom Manager. I asked if I could do this with Root and the thread was killed.
4. I did. The boot screen was the new one. But the radio wasn't updated.
5. I then attempted to unroot my phone. Followed the PB31IMG.zip method. Phone booted normally. Root was lost.
6. This is where I am now.
7. My question is, if I install the OTA now renamed update.zip on my SD card, will I run the chance of bricking my phone because I installed it once from Rom Manager while I had root (#3/#4)??????
Please advise so I don't MOD EDIT up my phone.................
And if you're going to flame and insist I should of just followed the 2.2 leak instructions, you're correct. But I took someone's quick answer and tried it assuming they knew a better method.

Well, "the right way" would be to wait for the actual OTA. Verizon would also have your back if you brick. But, anyway...
If you're still on the 1.00.03.04.06 radio, you can probably follow the instructions in that thread now that you've flashed back to the stock ROM. However, there still seem to be a few cases of people bricking their phones or being stuck in a bootloop after flashing leaks.
If you are confused/concerned/afraid of bricks then you just shouldn't flash the leaked OTA. This is not a flame, this is sound advice. Wait for the real one.

I'm fine with flashing. I just keep hearing about this "double install OTA and brick your phone" issue and I'm trying to avoid doing that. If the one guy didn't chime in with the suggestion to use ROM Manager, I wouldn't of had this issue.

My radio is still 1.00.03.04.06. I just want to make sure I don't run a risk of bricking.

If the hboot updated, i would say not to apply again. If it didnt update then i would say to see what happens, but dont take my word for it 100%

I personally have had a .77 HBOOT since I got my phone in April. My mom's phone, on the other hand, had the .79, which she has had since May, and she sure as hell didn't have no 720p camcorder. I don't think that the OP's phone having .79 means with any certainty that the OTA already applied once. I think the radio version listed on the HBOOT screen would be a better indicator.
But absolutely, running the PB13IMG should ensure that he's as far back as he can go, so why not try it just to be safe...

That's what I just did before I posted this thread. I installed the PB13IMG and restored everything back to stock. You asked about the HBOOT version and that's .79. I'm comfortable flashing and doing the update. What should HBOOT say? Has anyone successfully updated the OTA from .79 HBOOT?
Thank you for the help. Sorry for the questions. I completely comfortable with rooting, flashing roms, and kernals. This is going back to unroot stock is just new.
I want to install the OTA and I'm good to go. Just making sure it's safe now....

Agreed, however, I noticed after running the PB13IMG, my HBOOT was also .79, which could have only come from the PB13IMG since I hadn't tried to do the OTA yet. Just trying to add pieces to the puzzle to get a better picture for future reference...I'm sure this guy wont be the last to ask...

I appreciate the help guys. I guess my question would be if I ran PB13IMG, lost my root, back to stock, my HBOOT is .79 and my radio is still 1.00.03.04.06 and not 2.05.00.06.11, I should be at the same point as everyone else for installing the OTA from my SD card. Right or wrong?
When you read these threads and people are installing the OTA twice and bricking, are they installing the OTA again when the radio is already updated to 2.05.00.06.11?

Yep. I think you can flash it again, but be real cautious, as this is your second time flashing it, but if the radio is still the old versoin, you should be safe.

Yes, you do.
Edit: And your post would be Q&A, not development.

Did u try pressing volume down and power at the ! Screen? I know clockwork usually comes up directly using rom manager, but you can still get to clockwork that way.

I did previously flash the ENG build and I have to go through the first part of the root process every time I want to use Clockwork. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong...

Why would you not flash the eng? It takes 5 minutes that save on asking repetitive questions. Many people will tell you that you DON'T need to flash it, but if everybody flashed the eng build, everytime there was a problem people wouldn't have to ask, "Did you flash the eng build?" Kind of a time-saver and yes it irons out ALL the kinks other than user error.
The belief that it WASN'T necessary was started by Wes Garner because one of his ROMS never installed correctly, but to this day, it still remains uninstallable...so it has nothing to do with the eng build being the prob.
Just my 2 cents, bro.

The engineering rom being optional is like saying leaving gas in your car is optional. I mean, sure, you could always leave it empty and walk to the gas station with a can and come back every time you wanted to start it, but its a heck of a lot easier if you just leave some gas in the tank for next time.

It is on my SD card but I have to do the adb loop process and push the update after unsuccessfully flashing the update just like the first time I rooted. Rom Manager is not getting me into Clockworkmod recovery.

Just make sure you keep the update.zip on your sd. It didn't let you get straight into clockwork anyway. You need rom manager or bootloader to recovery then update.zip will get you in everytime with the ENG build

[ROM]Stock 2.2.1 MT4G with ROOT [LINK UPDATED 3-6-2012]v.3

THERE WILL BE NO FURTHER SUPPORT OF THIS OTHER THAN IF THE LINK GOES DOWN OR THERE IS SOMETHING DRASTICALLY WRONG WITH IT, BUT SINCE IT IS COMPLETELY STOCK AND NO COMPLAINTS HAVE COME, IT IS DONE... TY FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!
First i would like to thank football for posting the Stock ROM this is based off of!!!
This is nothing but the Stock 2.2.1 MyTouch4G MySense ROM with ROOT and slightly debloated!!!
The only reason i did this is as a request by a person on the site and i, on occasion like to go back to stock while retaining root.
Warning!!! I Am Not Responsible For Anything That Happens To Your Device!!!
I repeat, this is nothing but the stock rom that came shipped with your phone, but has root permissions added, no tweaks, mods, nothing added and SLIGHTLY DEBLOATED!!!
I have only tried this on the newest recovery, 3.0.2.4, and with that said, dont try this on any other recovery!!! JUST SAYIN!!!
Flashing Instructions
- Download the ROM and put it on the root (main folder) of your SD card not in a folder that you have to hunt down
- Boot into recovery
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Wipe cache partition
- Wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
- Format system (under Mounts and Storage)
***Optional, but i do it every time, just cause it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside*** Format /sdcard, then of course you have to mountUSB storage and copy the .zip over to your phone
- Install from zip / choose zip from SD card / flash it!!
- Let it finish booting .. it will take you to the setup wizard screen .. DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING! Wait 2 - 5 minutes and then hold down the power button and reboot.
<< do not turn on wi-fi until it says so in a couple of steps >>
- Once it boots up again, it will bring you back to the setup wizard. DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING again!! Wait another 2 - 5 minutes .. then log in to Google
- You may now turn on WIFI
HAPPY FLASHING
HOW TO REPORT A PROBLEM TO ME
IF YOU DONT REPORT THE PROBLEM IN THIS FORMAT THEN I WILL IGNORE YOUR POST DUE TO THE FACT THAT YOU CANT EVEN FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE INSTRUCTION​
Recovery image:
Bootloader:
ROM before flashing:
KERNEL before flashing:
Did you flasch it through CWM or Recovery?
EXACT steps taken to flash(to the T)
OPTIONAL, BUT I RECOMMEND IT​A LOGCAT linked to PASTEBIN if you have adb set up, it will tell me EVERYTHING I need to know
I dont see why I have to outline a format for the info I need, but there it is!!!
Downloads and Change Logs any changes will be minor and posted directly after the download link
Stock 2.2.1 MyTouch4G w/ROOT Permissions v.DEBLOATED just what the link says, Its DeBloated a bit!!! the list of things removed is in this post HERE

Yeah, i was really surprised it hasn't been dropped before this, but someone was asking about it so i figured i would do it, since i have to contribute somehow, lol. but hey, its the first thing out of my kitchen that has been released to the masses, and its been downloaded 30 times so far, so i guess there is a demand for it! i know it isn't much, but someone needed it, so i am happy!

Thank you for this .. I was really surprised that no one had done just a stock rom. It works great.
But ... The first thing I usually check after I install a rom is go to terminal and type "free" to see if it gives me the free memory .. Unfortunately this does not .. It gives error messages.
This is the same thing that happend to me when I first rooted the phone and something went wrong ...re rooted it and works now.
With that said ... Is there something wrong with this rom in the way it has root? Or is there something more to do for this like gfree method ..
Thanks for this and helping

HELP, recovery does not work, cm7 files

I need help, I rooted phone using CM7 instructions to put CM7 on evo 4g.
Confirmed s-off. copied cm7 update zip latest version stable, and google apps zip on root of sd card.
Turned phone off, volume down and power, then went to recovery.
It goes to a red triangle and does nothing. Replaced the two zipped files and still the same. I do not know what I am doing wrong. Please help, this is my first time doing this, but I spent a huge amount of time reading and making sure that I did everything right.

You may need to re-install your recovery. I recommend following the steps in the OP of the link below (Amon-RA 2.3).

Ok can you get to recovery? Can you boot your phone to the stock rom you had?
When you power the phone off and then on with volume down does it take you to the bootloader screen (white with kool little androids)? If yes download this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026 download the pc36img.zip and place it in the root of your sd card. when you power on with volume down it will ask you if you would like to apply update hit yes and yes again. Reboot then remove the zip and reboot again and go to recovery . Let me know how it goes.
I have to tell you you might get the Q&A Troll police for posting in the development section this is for roms,mods,fixes and the like and you question should go in the Q&A keep that in mind next time.

update to my post
I can go to white screen, and i can go to the recovery option. It then goes to red triangle and it stalls, I have to take battery out, it boots up just fine.
One question that I have, does the CM7 update file (update-cm-7.0.3.1. supersonic signed.zip) have all the necessary files required to go through this recovery process.

You need to flash your recovery first and to answer your question no CM7 is a rom not a recovery system. Click on the link given by the other user or myself which are the same download the file and follow instructions you need to get your recovery working first before you flash a rom.

thankyou,

Just wanted to say thanks to the contributors here. The OP is new and posting in the wrong section. Instead of flaming them, you guys offered info relevant to the question and let them know that there is a more appropriate place for their next question. That is the great attitude that brought me to XDA originally.

Help - S - off not working

HI everyone, I need some help. My micro USB port went on my phone and VW sent me a replacement. I used the tacoroot temp root methond and the Revolutionary to gain s- off and flashed the newest radio etc. All seemed fine. Fastboot screen say S- off and shows newest radio, I thought great! time to root. Nope..here is what I get:
first of all I have to use adb shell to boot the phone into Revolutionary/CWM recovery. It will not let me do it by holding the power and vol down button.
second when I go into recovery and pick a rom to flash I get this error: E:Can't open /sdcard/xxxx_ rom.zip.
makes no sense to me. Any Ideas?

You didn't receive any errors when using revolutionary? When you boot up your ROM go into settings and look under the power option and make sure fast boot is disabled.
I would go through the whole process again. It sounds like something went wrong in rooting.
