I have perm root with S OFF but have come in to quite a problem. I am having problems with the screen flickering on and off and need to exchange the device. The problem is, the nandroid backup that I made is inaccessible, and I have removed most of the stock apps off the phone.
The SD card I created the backup on seems to be corrupt, I cant even get it to mount anymore on my PC. Is there anyone that created a full nandroid back that can point me to the file (be willing to share)?
I have searched everywhere and can't seem to locate one.
Thanks for the help!
why don't you just use the "Downgrade ROM and Radio from OTA to Stock" thread?
Edit: Oh, and this is the wrong place for your thread also. Prob should go in general or Q&A.
The downgrade rom won't work w/ S-Off I don't believe. I would also a appriciate a nand backup, just the system.img if anyone has one to share.

Also, the OTA update will not be received again if you do the downgrade.

Are you asking for a NAND backup of the 2.2.1 stock rom?
If so, I'll see if I can't make one for you tonight when I get home. My work's internet connection is pretty crappy and it would take forever and a day to upload.

I think it should work. if it does it should restore your hboot to orignal as well.

Take a look at this thread. It has the link to the official RUU and the install instructions.
This should get you back to stock, although I have not tried it yet. I grabbed it just in case I would need it.

And as mentioned in that thread, nobody who has followed that process has received the OTA update after having reverted back to stock.

As you should know if he's returning his phone he doesn't need to receive the OTA anymore. Just follow that thread. I had a rooted white one restored and took it back to get a black one. That's much easier then trying to use someone else's backup.

He said he was returning the phone, so receiving the OTA is not really necessary.
Those instructions explain how to get it back to stock, as requested.
OEM stock is 2.2. Post first OTA update is 2.2.1
I would not mind getting a hold of that, as it would make it easier to possible get the 2nd OTA (about which I have read nothing about what it does).
Also wondering if anyone has lost root and rerooted after the 2nd update.
So I am absolutely fail.
On my first device, I guess I had just froze the bloatware apps rather than deleted them because they were restored after a factory reset before I returned it to the store.
On this one, I actually deleted the bloatware apps and they are permanently gone, factory reset doesn't bring them back, and I didn't do a Titanium backup until after I had deleted them off. ><

I did the same thing. I hope someone will post the factory rom with all the .apk files that I could install. The only one i've found is the rom without the OTA.
I actually need a 2.2.1 nandroid as well. Could someone please post one?

Ok so My phone is not recognized by a computer, i have tried different drivers, cords, ROMs, no matter what I do my phone is not recognized. I took it to the sprint store and the tech there who also has a rooted hero couldn't get it to mount either, the phone just doesn't bring up any mount notification at the top. I have a nandroid backup with stock ROM but even when I do that it is still rooted, they will not give me a new one until it is unrooted. My only other option is to make an insurance claim since I cannot flash it back to stock.
My Question: Is there any way to flash to stock and get unrooted using only my SD card (I can plug it into my card reader and it works fine). Thank you for any help you can give.

Sorry to report, the only option of unrooting is RUU, and this requires HTC Synch and a definate recognition on your PCs part.
Suggestions, anyone?
What version of Windows are you running? I have had issues with Windows 7 in the past. As weird as it sounds once I loaded PDAnet from the market on to my phone and the PDAnet client onto my computer. My phone was recognized. Is your computer charging the phone when plugged in?
its possible.. but you'd need Flashrec, an unrooted original 1.5 rom, and the original recovery image..
ie: use the custom recovery to flash the unrooted rom, then flashrec to flash the original recovery image.. then remove flashrec..
just an idea!
This brings up another question....
What does Sprint actually check?
Do you really have to get back to 100% stock, or would putting the original recovery image on get you through?
Any current or former Sprint techs willing to chime in? Just how perfect do we have to get it?

Actually, that just might work! Great idea chavo, very intuitive thinking!
I take back my last statement. I read somewhere flashrec doesnt work after youv flashed your imahe....google the unlockrs method on flashing a new recovery once already rooted; i think it involves some adb though :-(
Idk, thats as much as i know
I know it works.. but I have an unrooted rom in a nandroid backup from when rooting the Sprint Hero first started.. lol not many people have those laying around, as most used the Asroot2 method of rooting and not Flashrec to flash the recovery.

Your nandroid wont work on another phone, and if it did, it would synch your contacts to their phones, passwords, apps, the whole shindig. Bad idea
We'll have to beg a dev for a stock 1.5 rom
you can use a nandroid from another Sprint Hero.. done that too when i got my replacement phone! If anyones willing..
RUU, don't sign into google. Download and install Flashrec and flash the recovery through that and create a nandroid backup.. it will be clean

Nandroid is device specific to a point.. If you go in to the nandroid folder on the SD card you will see a folder labled HT********** that is specific to your phone, however you can take a nandroid from another phone and place it in that folder and backup from that.
i'd do the RUU but i'm using the updated radio.
I use a mac, but if indeed it isn't the windows driver, and you have tried other roms, then it only leaves the kernel (and the usb cable and phone usb hwd ).
So use what ever methods you used for the rom flashing, and flash a kernel.
Some ideas : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625940&page=1
( start at page 1 )
Just a thought.
isn't the nandroid image made right AFTER you root?
so then, that wouldn't be what you want.
Extract the stock rom from the RUU
ok.. here's an unrooted 1.5 Nandroid back up.
http://www.4shared.com/file/250722598/a6eddc31/NoRootNandroid.html
Download the zip, extract.. and place the folder NoRootNand on the SD card in SDCARD/nandroid/HT**********/
Boot into recovery, select restore as you would if you were restoring a backup you made -->Nand Restore-->HT**********--> and choose to restore NoRootNand
I'm using the RA-heroc-v1.6.2 recovery, so I am unable to verify if this is will work with an older recovery image.
if you have any questions feel free to ask.
Wow thank you everyone for all of the advice, i had all but given up hope since I had been all over google looking for an answer for about 2 weeks. I will try the nandroid backup above and report back. thank you everyone again, you may have just saved me an insurance claim.
Wow, glad I found this thread. I'm downloading that nandroid image right now because I'm going to probably end up taking my Hero in to get the dust cleaned out later this week. I think another option would be to extract the RUU and get the ROM.zip out of it, and then just flash that.

Ok I tried this and I am still rooted afterwards. I think that if you go to the sprint store and they can hit volume down and power, and get to the recovery menu then they will not take it back, no matter if the rom u are running is stock or not. any other ideas?
In case you need to revert for warranty service or just for fun.
Taken from a never before booted unmodified unit. Enjoy!
http://www.4shared.com/file/T0ekY2XN/mytouch_slide_factory_nandroid.html
Note: These instructions assume a certain level of technical skill considering if you have the need to revert you have already rooted and flashed your devices at least once. Ensure you have flashed the factory version of the radio and splash1 partition prior to returning to this image for everything to be factory (note: splash1 can currently be nothing other than factory as there is not an SPL with security off at this time).
1) Unpack these files to your phones sdcard in to a directory named: clockworkmod/backup/factory
2) Boot in a ClockworkMod Recovery
3) Select wipe data/factory reset
4) Select nandroid; restore; select the directory named factory ; wait for restore to complete
5) Reboot
thanks for this. but noob question here: if i ever root & go flashin roms all willy-nilly, how would i apply this?
Nice. Thanks.
Thanks man, I'm gonna keep this saved on me PC for that "just in case" moment you might need it haha. Appeciate it.
Curious if anyone has performed a nandroid restore with the Slide via the stock/clockwork recovery method. My thinking here is if a nandroid restore is possible, with this backup we can return the phone to an absolute un-rooted stock state. Is that correct? Any insight is appreciated.

If you flashed the engineering rom make sure you apply the Newest_Slide_Radio.zip that ChiefzReloaded posted, that is the stock radio. The nandroid backup does not contain the radio.
Interesting, 3 posts asking for clarification and the OP provides unsolicited clarification for someone simply posting a thanks.

You need to get in to clockwork recovery, which is currently loaded by the update.zip you use to root your phone. Once you are in there you select nandroid and restore, then flash these backup images to your phone.
If you get to the point you need to do it I would be happy to provide more detailed instructions!

You need to get in to the Clockwork Recovery to restore this. Follow the directions in the root how-to, when you apply that provided update.zip that is what gets you in to clockwork recovery.
Copy these files on to your sdcard (first, before anything else), get in to Clockwork Recovery, select nandroid, select restore, and point it to these images.
ok this sounds totally noob but I'm not sure what you mean by "point it to these images"

Hi, first post -been a long time lurker
Rooted my mytouch and went along uninstalling bloatware using titanium backup, wanted to reinstall a few of the programs and found that I can't.
I really would just like to restore the factory rom on it, did anyone make a copy that I could download?
Thanks
You'll probably need to wait until Clockworkmod gets ported, that way you can restore from a nandroid backup. Alternatively, you should be able to get to recovery and restore back to factory from there. Easiest way to do that is to open up adb and run adb reboot recovery. If the option to restore isn't there, turn off fast boot in options and then power off the phone. Hold volume down and power at the same time until a menu with a few options comes up. Press the volume down button until you get to factory reset and then press the power button to confirm the selection.
You should be able to just through this mofo on there...

Any luck? There are a few people over on the dev board stating future updates may not work without some of the bloatware crap (per their experience on a MT3G), so I'd like to know how you pulled this off if I have to go that route in the future.
You can try this to go back to complete stock.

well i flashed the recovery didn't help.
i wonder if theres some kind of recovery image out there that comes with the stock apps. that would fix the problem. i think
I posted a fix for this a few months ago (in this forum). Just do a search for it.
Just flash an entirely new rom, such as MikShiftG, if you want a sense based rom. Make sure to wipe data/factory reset, cache, and dalvik.
Or you can go back to stock, by running the RUU. This is the android 2.2 RUU, not the Gingerbread RUU, which can't be rooted just yet.
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Speedy
Edit: You can also flash the One "zip" RUU. Make sure to select the one no hboot included. You will need to flash a recovery, and flash a new rom.

If you go back to stock, make sure to update to the one in the second link I gave, without the hboot. I wouldn't want you to lose root, and not be able to get it back. You should at least keep S-OFF in the bootloader.

This is exactly what I need to get my TPT back to being able to run encryption.

Please advise me accordingly.

Konker,
No issues to speak of. It is a factory reset, booted through startup without wifi, no account info provided, Lenovo standard bloatware, and no customization. SuperUser is already installed and active. The backup folder was renamed and then added to a zip file.
My tablet has a Gobi3000 wwan card installed, otherwise a standard 1838 with 32gb storage.
I hope it helps anyone who didn't get a backup made before upgrading.

I keep getting a MD5 checksum error. I have tried to re-downloading several times but still getting the error. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Try from the uploads I put on everyrandom.com today. The previously linked one was uploaded (550MB) on 3G cell service, likely screwing it up somehow.
edit: everyrandom.com/files wasn't serving the files correctly. They have been removed.

I was also so I installed the second CWM version about half way through that thread, and the restore went smooth.
Whoa, I just realized I never installed the improved CWR port. Mine is the original CWR that was offered up on the first day of Root. I should remember that because I ALWAYS pull my SD-Card out before performing factory resets. I heard the CWR update fixed that...
I'll note that in my Nandroid post. Thanks for the heads up.
I figured out what was going on. I guess when I extracted the files, it put the files in a sub folder with the name as the original folder.
I tried to download from the other post also, but it was like the files had been removed from the site.

Where can I find the supposed updated CWM port? I cannot find it in this thread nor anywhere related to the TPT.
Please advise me.
Thanks!
I fixed it to a direct download link for the no bloat nandroid.

I updated the CWM on my TPT with this version & I discovered that the recovery console is not as stable.
No long after I reboot into CWM recovery, perhaps about 10 secs, my TPT rebooted itself.
Has anyone observed this behavior?
I'm going to try download again & see how it goes.
