No you dont flash back to stock through a .zip update. You have to follow those instructions if you want your phone to be unrooted and back stock. Its not a hard process to do
Will this restore OTA update capabilities. I've read on other threads where once rooted it will still download but not INSTALL the updates, anyone know??
Thanks
Hey Everyone,
Please forgive me if this is a repost, I've been searching for awhile and cannot find any answers.
I'm an at&t user using an unlocked G1 to see if I liked android enough to commit.
Anyway after trying for 3 days (lol) to root and upgrade to 2.2 with CM6. I kind of did it. The only thing is I think I skipped the part about backing up. And now cannot install GAPPS. I'm a total noob as you can tell, so is there anything I can do get GAPPS installed ?.
If not, how would you suggest I go back to stock 1.6
Thanks in advance,
Lee.
Okay, got it working now.
Was using wrongfile for gapps.
PS: forums are awesome, Thanks for all your hard work.

I have searched around but i am unable to find instructions as to what i should do in this situation other than know i need to go back to stock kernel.
Is there a way i can do this without wiping anything and loosing root.
Many kind regards for the help in advance

Please kill the bold next time...
See the sticky at the top of the forums 2.3.4 OTA's and their variants. The answer is in the first post.
Hi ALL! Please help. Thank you!
I am trying to restore my phone to fact default for a girl that I am selling my phone too. I was currently running sense 3.0 with the virtuous rom and a modified radio. Anyways, I downloaded footballs posted PD15IMG.ZIP and put it on the root of my SD card and I tried to do it that way, because that has worked in the past, but now I think I might have bricked my phone, ****. Basically... I tried to do that and it didn't work saying that the update failed because "main version is older"...so I flashed a different backup to try and do it with that rom, but that didn't work either, now I am seeing that it says "s=on" at the top? So can someone please help me... am I doomed or is there a way to fix my phone..?!?! Thanks.

you, sir, are unfortunately **** out of luck. the same thing happened to me and I tried EVERYTHING for like a week straight but was never able to fix it. the problem is that you should have reverted back to the stock radio before trying to flash the PD15IMG. you have a radio lockout, and I dont think theres any way to fix it. its been discussed on another thread if youd like to view it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092170
*edit*the other guy got his fixed so you might wanna try the methods he did, but I was never able to fix mine so I just bricked it
Hi,
I've already make a factory reset via settings but the update still can't install... After a little work, a RED "!" icon appears on android when trying to install it...
I'm on STOCK rom and STOCK recovery... very very strange....
Someone can help me?
Thx!
So, when you typed this thread title in did the posts you saw regarding this exact issue not seem like something you should have read?......
really can't understand... someone else had the same problem? Can't find the other post, sorry.... where is it pls?
edit: founded thx
Hello,
I'm sorry, I don't find this thread. I really searched.
I'm in the same case than asder00.
My Transformer is rooted, B50, European, and actually 9.2.1.11 official build.
The only way to update HoneyComb -> ICS was to use the version posted by MrNago http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514658<br />
Today, I tried to update to 9.2.1.17 build. I received this update, but when my tablet reboot to install it, a triangle appears at approximately 30%. Exactly the same thing than when I wanted to install ICS.
I tried to install official ROM stock ICS of Asus with CWM recovery. Doesn't work (Status 7). No error about the version. I took WW build.
Same with ROM Revolution HD.
But retried with MrNago ROM, It works.
I don't know what to do to recover working updates.
PS : I think to know about which thread you speak.
I have read it. I don't think our problem to asder00 and me (and many others) should be over there. In my case, this impossible installation didn't appear after ICS.
And, those who posted our problem didn't have solution.
PPS : Sorry for my poor english. I'm not a moron. English is not a language I use every day.
Go to this thread and download and flash the file .
Note When you have CWM you cant ota.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1551652
Yeah, that's what I've done.
This micro update has worked with this file.
That's right, CWM is installed.
It was not when I tried to upgrade to ICS.
And if this is really source of our problem, I don't know how to remove that.
I have seen a method which match with what I've alreay done (reboot in recovery, install ROM stock... /!\ doesn't worked).
I believe I'm condemned to upgrade with files found over the web.

What did you do to fix this problem (with stock recovery and stock rom)?
I'm having the same issue, red exclamation mark. I never rooted my device.
1. Root
2. Install CWM
3. Flash update through CWM
it's really not that hard.
OK, that's a way. But keep in mind there are customers without knowlegde of rooting and stuff... what about them? The update should work, right?

Then you talk to Asus about it, not here.
Here is a place where people come to find information and learn how to do things.
If you just want a magic one click fix, call Asus.
I was also in a similar situation as you. I went back to stock rom and stock recovery and noticed I wasn't getting the OTA update to 9.2.1.17. Guess what?
I rooted my TF with a root kit found on this website. It literally rooted my TF with a click of a button. It was so easy.
I then installed CWM with an app posted on this website. It was just an APP. All I had to do was run the app and it installed CWM. So frigin easy
Finally, I manually flashed the update through CWM, which was made possible because some nice dude on this website posted a CWM flashable zip for the 9.2.1.17 update.
This entire procedure took less than 30 minutes.

You're totally right about that. I'm just curious what the problem might be. Would be interesting to know.
I'm now going to use the CWM method you suggested.
Same thing.
I would like to know if someone knows why few peoples have this problem, and many others not.
Why, since ICS is came, auto updates doesn't work.
There are solutions, of course. Sometimes we can search 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, more. For some people, it's easier than for others.
And what we all are sure, if we call Asus, they don't tell us how to resolve that. They will tell us to send the tablet to them. It's not what we want.
So, if messages like that irritate you, I think you should drink a herb tea.
Or close your eyes, take a full breath, and read another thread.
Because there will be always messages like that.
I don't tell that to provoke you. I would like that you understand that when people have problems, they go where they think to find the best solutions.
