does your backup have spaces in the name??? if not... is your battery low??? if all else fails... make sure it is the only file in your nandroid backup folder... do it in that order... one of those should fix your problem

???Really hard to follow.
We need more info.
What roms
What carrier?
Why where you trying to get sprint gps that isn't in any of the 2.1 roms I've seen, but it can be easily put back on via kitchen/ .apks

Gosh... it's TELLING YOU WHAT TO DO!
Plug your phone in to the PC while it's in recovery mode.
Open adb.exe shell
type ./nandroid-mobile.sh --help
And type the things to restore, you should get a error message like "out of space" or something.

What roms?
DC to 3D, 3D= Mix of a lot of roms.
What carrier?
Sprint
But it is FOR SURE not bricked right? if it is going into recovery mode?

Bricked= Can't turn on. Nothing Nada. Phone is a "brick"
It isn't brick if you can turn it on and go to recovery. Or ADB

Nope no spaces but the battery looked low last time i checked... That could cause this error?

Just make some room on your sd card
the error is your card is full
try it out, let me know

EDIT: I got it fixed, it was the battery.. I'm very sorry for this post... I was just freaking out because I have a interview tomorrow and i need to be able to answer, so im guessing switching ROMS day before be day is a BAD IDEA lol. But thanks to all that helped.

Uninstalling custom rom and/or Unrooting phone

This is a guide we should have just in case people want to go back to normal. Can anyone say step by step how do we unroot our phone and how do we uninstall a custom rom.
Thanks in advanced, this will help people if they ever want to go back.
EDIT.. I figured out one sure way to uninstall a custom rom, and that is to just restore your nandroid backup that you should have made before you installed the rom.
Just factory reset the phone.
if you run RUU_Hero_C_Sprint_1.29.651.1_signed_release.exe it will be like the way you got it. Unrooted and stock
you can get it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622

That won't work because when you load a custom rom, it effectively "becomes" the factory image.

yes it will make it so its just like you got it on day one new in the box
yup, RUU will unroot your phone, delete all installed apps and settings to include call logs, sms's, or anything else you have on your phone.
Pictures and some downloads are automatically downloaded to your sd card so those should be fine.

Trying to restore and nandroid is saying run " nandroid-mobile.sh restore" on console.. any ideas why.
I backed up nandroid on my PC and then formated the SDcard for App2sd but then realized that I formated off my pictures. Kind of hoping those were saved in the nandroid backup.
Has anyone actually attempted to un-root using this RUU utility?
A couple users at androidforums are trying to go back to stock and running into problems - the app it telling them something along the lines of 'you cannot use this utility with your phone, please use the correct utility'
I can't remember exact verbage atm - but something along those lines.
I'm running linux and don't really trust trying this through a Windows VM, else I'd answer my own question here.

Yes I did when I had some problems and it works just fine. You have to be able to have your phone on, usb connected and seen by your computer for it to work. I then rooted the phone again.

First download + install HTC Sync. Verify that HTC Sync can see your phone. If not, you need to uninstall drivers, unplug your phone, plug it back in and have windows find the drivers again for you. EDIT: Just a note, on my Vista comp HTC Sync didn't recognize it for me so I had to pull out a comp with XP on it. Windows 7 I don't know. Vista still works though, I just think I did something funky to the drivers on there.
Next, just exit HTC Sync or leave it running doesn't matter.
Now, while your phone is plugged in Download the RUU exe. Run it, follow directions. Voila. Everything wiped back to brand new out of the box HTC rom.
Thanks TOKi
I did but I dunno if my phone is unrooted or not. Anyway to check this?
Plus my phone is deactivated and I have no idea how to reactivate it. Haha.

I have tried several times. Each time I cannot get past the "waiting for bootloader" part. It must have something to do with replacing the recovery partition with RA-heroc-v1.2.3.
Anyone else have this issue?
I had this issue, but I unplugged and tried the process again and it fixed itself

[Problem] Phone boot loops.

ok so 2 things really.
i can only get 1 nandroid back to work. the nandroid is of stock root so this isnt a huge problem. but i want to flash roms lol. i was thinking maybe it was a2sd? flashing any rom causes a boot loop. its weird. i RUU'd once but now the program doesnt see my phone and it wont boot into Hboot. Comp see phone and Fresh Kitchen see the phone oh and cmd promp too so idk about that either.
i also dont know where the recovery image is stored on the phone it self.
so if any one can help with these things ty.
format c:, that should take care of your boot loop problem.
Don't do what the guy said... you'll screw your Windows install. First, just don't use a2sd until you can get everything sorted out.

Were you on an aosp or sense rom? (I'm guessing sense)
Are you rooted? Did you wipe the entire rom from your phone?
Have you tried ruu'ing or flashing a rom?

Well when it goes into the master screen.... where you wipe data, it has a name, teamwin..... anyway, I have not flashed it, but was trying to. Thing is, after I wiped, I could not figure out how to get the new rom installed. I wiped everything I have an SD card but having problems with loading anything off the sd card to install ROM, plus I am not even sure the ROM I have works being I downloaded it off the net.

What rom are you trying to flash?
If everything is already wiped, all you need to do is install a rom for the evo shift (go have a look in the dev section) and everything should be swell again?
Are you having problems mounting your sd card onto your computer?

Actually, there is no guide there as to the flashing part, unzipped file to SD card.... but not sure what to do now. Placed it in the phone.... and went to I guess it would be called root menu where you install and what-not.... But like I said, no real guide to the flash itself. The origanal idea was to get it on boost mobile network, but ##3282# was not working which led me to this point. Maybe you know a better guide for the flash??

to flash the rom you don't unzip it.
Leave it as a zip and install it from your recovery by selecting it in your recovery
