Hey folks.
I've had a HTC Hero on Orange since launch. Recently got me an iPhone 4 so stopped using the Hero.
I went back to use it a couple of weeks ago and the screen seems to have stopped working correctly (there is another few threads about it) - It seems i'm going to have to send the phone back to be repaired..
Before I send it back, I'm going to have to un-root the device. I've had a look through these forums, the unlockr.com, android forums etc looking for how to's - Everyone seems to think its as easy as plugging the phone in and double clicking the RUU for Orange. Not for me it seems.
My SD card with my nandroid backups messed up just before I got my iPhone, so I don't have any nandroid backups available. All the RUU's I've downloaded give me an error about being unable to connect with the phone after restarting. I think its because I have a different recovery image installed.
Is there a one-click unroot/revert application available? Or can someone point me in the right direction of how to do it? I have googled, and searched, but so far I'm stumped..
Thanks in advance!

Hi Guys, I have had this phone for around a week now. I have it rooted and installed a T-mobile ROM. The problem I am having is that I cannot do the 3 button trick. I have been browsing the forums and everyone who is having this problem is told to exchange it.
Since I have a different ROM, and accidentally wiped my phone during the install not very smart on my behalf). My phone boots up with this ugly pink "stick together" logo and irritating sound.
Is there a download where I can change it back to the original one that came with my Bell?
I originally posted this in the Vibrant section and realized that more Bell users were over here in the forum. Sorry for the double posting.
ayy yai yai viejo... this is complicated.
Where are you in Canada?
try these methods that people have tried,

some of them worked, some of them not, but still should try it, to at least get it to Download mode, so you can flash it back to the stock JG9 or JH2 ROMs
I am unable to do the three button trick, but through ROM manager I can load other ROMs. I just don't know where I can download a stock ROM?
I am located in Calgary, Alberta.
good, at least you got that working
go to the ROM Manager topic in Development section and ask for help there for the ROM that you need to fix the phone.
Thanks for your input guys, I actually ended up taking at back and told them I accidentally loaded the wrong ROM. And without the three button enabled I was unable to flash it back to the proper ROM. Thus killing two birds with one stone. And now I have a device that has the 3 buttons enabled.
nice! good to hear that
Hi
I know this question has been raised many times in various threads, but can anyone suggest a work around for the problem where you can't switch the phone back on again if it has been charged while switched off?
It's been mentioned as a bug attributed to the unrevoked 3 method of rooting but I've tried all sorts to get rid of it. Thought perhaps an ruu might have done it but keep getting Error[131] while trying.
It's a T-Mobile mobile and I have succesfully managed to get it up to WWE_1.37 through substituting .img files etc within nandroid backups/recovery but simply can't get passed this issue of switching on without removing battery.
Any help would be gratefully accepted - thanks in advance.
Hi, I Dont get massively involved in my phones but I bought a San Fransisco to try out Android, I was impressed even if I couldnt get it to work with a Dutch data sim while over there, I've now bought a Sensation and just recieved an Asus Transformer. But back to the Blade, I'm unable to Change the ROM. although it says the phone is rooted and I've superuser permissions but when I run titanium or rom manager it says device not rooted, I'm guessing the rooting is corrupt, thew phone still works as a phone but is there any way I can blank it and install a ROM, I dont need backups as I wont be going back ... only forward

I don't know where else to put this since this phone does not have its own forum here.
Here is my problem...
My vista was rooted and I was going to sell it to a friend so I was doing a factory reset with the phones built-in option... And the stock factory reset makes it all the way to where I enter my first and last name and then after doing so I get this error...
LGsetupWizard has stopped (there are more words but this sums it up)
And then the Setup Wizard restarts.
I then go through the setup process again thinking it will go through this time... Same error message... LGsetupWizard has stopped, and it restarts itself.
I have searched for a fix for this EVERYWHERE and cannot find a fix... I cannot even find the stock rom/firmware for my device: AT&T LG G Vista D631
The official website has no download and the only "stock" ROM/firmware I can find is for the Verizon VS880 and it's counter parts...
Can ANYONE help me get this phone fixed and make it all the way through the LGsetupWizard without it looping/stopping/crashing???
Really need some help from the pros as I have exhausted all my tools/methods in finding a fix/solution.
EDIT: I am able to get into the settings menu (with fast fingers) right after I click OK to get rid of the error message.
I have turned on DEV MOD and enabled all the settings needed in order to flash stuff and put stuff onto the phone via computer USB...
How can I fix this problem if I am able to have access to DEV MOD on phone???
Problem solved.
I used LG D631 TOT DLL.rar and LG Flash Tool.
I forgot where I got these files from, but I am sure a simple search on a search engine will help you find them.
After I got it to boot back up, I used TitaniumBackup and found that LGSetupWizard was "frozen"... So I unfroze it and did the factory reset again and it went all the way through the LG Setup.
Bought a OTG from China, used one, left plugged into the phone as I slept...don't know if it's the cause of my troubles to start happening, or if the Twitter app I installed at the same time is the cause.
The phone became TROUBLE and I eventually decided to try going back to stock. I did manage to get stock on but couldn't use because the phone immediately would display the dreaded "Unfortunately.......", which pops up so often that you cannot do anything. So I decided to do a full wipe from factory recovery. Since then, the phone wont power on at all! I have left it to charge overnight, all day, NO POWER!!!! I have read many similar accounts. I lost as what to do! I had ZERO power issuses before. Saw a vid where a guy says the power switch is faulty. He ordered one from eBay and replaced it. 1) I don't think it's the case. 2) don't think I wanna try soldering, etc.
Any help would be appreciated!!!
I have the 910W8 from Rogers in Canada. ODIN flashed with no problems (used the latest firmware from sammobiles for my phone) but would get that error after the flash, causing it to be unuseable. I flashed a second time and same thing. That's when I decided to do a wipe from recovery. Now it won't boot up.
Wow! NOBODY?!

Cannot believe nobody has replied. I did get one of the usb things from a very nice member (i have to register myself as someone who now has one) but the phone is still not working.
Having done some confusing reading to try to fix mine but don't think i can.
Wondering if there's a good, reliable, store in the GTA (north end preferrably) that can do repair with JTAG? Wondering if there's any hope in recovering this phone. I get the impression that there's a good chance JTAG repair can bring it back to life.
