I have a BELL Desire Z which I rooted, S-Off and then flashed with the HTC Sense ROM from Paul O'brien. I am having more issues than anything so I want to know how I get back to the stock ROM.
I take it you dont have a nandroid backup? You could try that RUU method, it usually restores your self back to stock. I have my stock nandroid iimage lying around if ya need it.

The bell rom posted is .1, not the .5 version that's shipped.. so I don't think it's the same. So the RUU method wouldn't work..
I did a backup, but will it reset all my personal settings etc?
Is there a stock released ROM from HTC or bell or even an update on the way?

Be careful ! Do not try to flash an RUU that is older than the ROM you have, if you have S-OFF or you could end up bricking your phone - see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838484
You can use the "debranding" guide in the dev forum to go back to an older ROM if you have S-OFF.
In about it says the software is 1.34.405.5
What do I need to do exactly to get back to stock safely.

If your current ROM is 1.34.405.5, then you should be able to safely use either the stock 1.34.405.5 RUU, or the ROM extracted from that.
It's if you're trying to flash a ROM with a lower version number than that you're already running, if you're S-OFF, that you'll run into problems.
Thanks for the info, is there anywhere to download the stock Bell ROM from? Alot of these threads are confusing for a n00b like myself with all the abbreviations and different versions.
I basically want to get back to stock, root the phone, delete the bloatware and overclock it.
I was wondering... if you made a nandroid backup after having done some app installations and such of the stock rom, and you flashed back to that backup, you'd have your original ROM with all the app installations and settings you set right? What happens if you then proceed to do a factory reset? Does the ROM revert back to stock? Or does it simply revert back to the state of the ROM when you made the backup?

Although several stock ROMs are on this forum, unfortunately it looks like the current Bell ROM isn't there, only an older one. It would obviously be very useful if someone could get hold of it and upload it.
You can do a factory reset to set everything back to how your ROM came initially, if it's still on the stock ROM. But if you want to delete the bloatware and overclock etc, you may well be better flashing a different ROM, have a look and see what ones sound good.
My question is sort of along the line of that of the OP, since I'm somewhat new to this process still I hope you'll humor me. I've done a ton of reading, but I still have a few q's I couldn't seem to find buried in my research...
I have a Bell Desire Z, unlocked, rooted, S-OFF. I installed ClockWork & flashed the recovery partition and did a nandroid backup of my stock Bell partition. I then did a wipe / install of the non-sense G2 ROM Paul put out and have been using it (and enjoying it) quite a bit.
I think I'd like to try a Cyanogen ROM now, is it really just as simple as flashing the RC3 (doing a complete wipe, obviously) and then I'm good to go? I can then just restore apps/settings with Titanium...
If I want to revert back to my original Bell ROM, do I just restore that ROM from the nandroid backup I made as soon as I installed ClockWork?
If I'm on Pauls G2 Rom (or Cyanogen's ROM), and I do a 'factory wipe', that just resets the factory settings of that particular ROM right? It wouldn't take me back to the stock Bell ROM would it? (very sorry if this seems noobish)
Thanks folks.
Anyone?

Yes, you can wipe and flash Cyanogen. Yes, you can restore apps with Titanium. However, I don't yet understand how this works with "system"-type apps. e.g. what if you are using a different SMS app in Cyanogen to the stock ROM, can you restore your messages ? Of course if you are restoring an app that you installed on your stock ROM, to the Cyanogen ROM then Titanium should do it fine.

Yes, it just takes you back to the factory settings for that ROM that you're currently on. It won't take you back to the original ROM that came with your phone if you've switched to something else.

You're welcome. I was pretty confused by what Titanium did at first, until I actually came to use it (along with a Nandroid backup) to do a backup of all my stuff and restore (using Nandroid) after I'd temporarily reverted to an earlier ROM.
I need to revert back to the stock Bell Desire Z ROM as well but didn't make a backup.

Guys,
I am interested in rooting my Telus Hero, but I am wanting to know if there is an original ROM image available for the Telus variant so that I can restore the phone to factory configuration if I need to. I mainly want to do this to install the Google Turn-By-Turn Navigation on it.
Thanks,
Y2J
just do a nandroid backup of your telus rom before flashing...
In order to do a Nandroid backup I have to root the phone first correct? If this is the case, then there is no way to unroot the phone to it's default out of box state, correct?
Thanks,
Y2J
Not quite correct, but close enough so as not to matter.
You don't need to be rooted to run Nandroid, but you do need to boot a custom recovery image. On earlier stock ROMs, it was possible to boot a recovery image without flashing it do the device, but this probably isn't an option for you since I guess the Telus Hero has the new SPL which disallows this.
What you really need is an original Telus RUU, but I'm not aware if this publicly exists.
Regards,
Dave
That's correct, there's no public Telus RUU.
If you really want a Telus stock ROM to revert to, wait till the eclair update comes out.
@y2jdmbfan
I was in the same boat as you. Wanted to use custom ROM but always wanted to have to option to go back to stock Telus ROM. I lasted a little over a month and bit the bullet. To be honest, if you are comfortable with customs roms and general phone hacking then I don't think there's a need to wait. There are some good stable custom roms out there and I don't see a need to ever go back to stock Telus (unless you need warranty work perhaps? but not sure).
I may bite the bullet tonight and try it out. I am using mine on AT&T in the USA anyways, so warranty work is out of the question.
To be honest, if you've flashed a custom ROM and you phone does go wrong, in order to get it back to stock your phone would need function to such an extent that you could load an RUU on to it - if it was completely dead or the USB died, it wouldn't matter if you had an RUU because you wouldn't be able to install it anyway.
Regards,
Dave

I connected my phone to my PC to put a song on it. i decided to delete some other songs, but I guess I accidentally deleted the folder that had my nanrdoid and stock Rom(rooted) backup in it. Am I screwed, or is there a way for me to get these back, at least the stock rom backup. If I had that, I could at least do a nandroid backup again.
Was it off your computer? did you send it to the recycling bin? Go find the free program called "FREEUNDELETE" without the quotes and it will be able to help you. I've used that program on multiple occasions to recover "deleted" files. I hope it works for you as well.
No it wasn't in my recycle bin. But I'll try that FreeUndelete thing.
Edit: I tried using that, but it didn't find my backup or any of the other things I deleted. Is there any other way I can get it or download another stock Rom from on here?
Sorry to hear that..

Thanks for that. That should be quite helpful later. But what I want is, on Rom Manager, before flashing a new rom, it asks if you want to back up existing rom. Does anyone have a backup of the standard rom, but rooted. Say you just got the phone, didn't install anything extra on it, but rooted it.

There's a pre-rooted stock G2 OTA ROM in the dev section. Just take a look or search. It's probably even listed in the stickies.
Ah that's what I was looking for. Do I have to worry about that topic saying don't flash an official Rom etc. if you have -s off if I wanted to flash back to the one the stock one on the dev forum?

No, that warning is for official shipping ROMs (flashed as PC10IMG.zip in the bootloader) or for RUUs (basically the same thing but flashed from Windows). More specifically, the warning is for flashing a different RUU than your current device (e.g., flashing a completely stock Desire Z ROM onto a G2).
You can treat the pre-rooted stock ROM like any other custom ROM though (just flash it in recovery).
So if I downloaded the file in this thread to my SD card, then I could just flash it like any other rom using rom manager?

I think that is answered in the ROMs thread somewhere, but basically odex is the same as the stock ROM (when APKs are odex'ed, they undergo the equivalent of an optimization to save space and maybe load faster on the initial creation of the dalvik cache). One of the benefits of the de-odexed ROM though is that you can easily modify/theme the APKs. For example, many people theme the status bar icons or modify the battery icon so it displays the percentage. This can only be done on a de-odex'ed ROM (trying to do it to an odex ROM would result in a boot loop).
Could someone tell me if i would loose root, s-off and eng-off if i upgraded my current 2.2 stock rom to 2.3.3? Also how can i restore all applications/messages/contacts etc if i had to wipe to install a new rom???

Depends how you did it. If you flashed a stock RUU you would lose root and maybe Eng S-OFF but Radio S-OFF should stay (but only 95% sure of that).
But if you've done all that you probably not wanting a stock RUU in which case you can flash any customised GB ROM including the rooted leaked ROM.
Use titanium to back up apps or there is a setting to back them up (including settings) on Google servers.
Use MyBackup Pro, Sprite to back up SMS, MMS and settings. Or SMS Backup and Restore if just SMS.
Yes you will
Why don't you flash the Stock Rooted 2.3 ROM, and not lose anything.

Cheers for the rooted rom....will flash this one
Well, I'm kind of at a crossroads here. I'm running an unrooted 2.2, but since I deleted a few bloats I'm unable to go to Gingerbread over the air. On one hand I can re-add the apks back to my phone and go to the official 2.3.4 or I can root and use a 2.3.4 rom. My question is, which is the easiest to do and are there any drawbacks of having the rooted version of gingerbread? Meaning, does the OTA version have any additional features that I'll lose with the rooted one (updated radio, etc?). Thanks for the time and help everyone on here puts!
Most people here will lean towards telling you to root. There's no downside to rooting, only upsides. You can ALWAYS unroot and return to stock if you need to return the phone for warranty replacement.
I'd say just root. You can install a perfectly stock pre-rooted OTA build if you like the stock look-and-feel (its perfectly stock, just rooted), but at the same time you can always install other ROMs to try out as well.
And either way you get all the bonuses of root, such as ad-blockers, backup apps, etc..
As far as radios, you can flash any radio you'd like. I'd recommend just flashing the recommended T-mous 2.3 OTA radio, which is 26.08.04.30 I believe.

Yes, you really need to wipe data/factory reset before flashing this ROM. You can use an app like 'Titanium Backup' to back up all of your apps+data to your SD card, then restore them to the new ROM. DO NOT backup/restore system data though.
Also, its always a great idea to do a nandroid (ROM manager) backup of your current ROM before wiping/flashing the new one

Its not required, but its usually recommended to flash the radio intended for the ROM you're using. You can find a list of radios and the ROMs they're associated with in the dev section. I recommend installing them via the PC10IMG.zip in the bootloader.

Allways an update version needs to be flashed, but if you are on ICS you normally are not needed to make a factory reset. Only flash the update and reboot.
Nevertheless it is usefull to safe your data. CWM backup and Titanium Backup I would advice.
You should probably post in Q&A for this stuff.
There are two prominent versions at the mo,
1 - Onecosmics ICS RC 2.1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398223)
2 - Teamhacksungs ICS ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363593)
There are a few more but these are probably your best place to start.
OneCosmics version is based on stock ICS, Teamhacksungs is more of a CM7/ICS build, so not totally stock.
Both work well, but neither are perfect yet. Onecosmics is goodin my eye as i like stock. Keep it simple and hopefully little will break....
You should also read the android development page for i9000, this will show you all you need and you can read what you like!
Getting a 'Custom Rom' will be rare at this point as stock still isn't 100% to work off.
You can install both via CWM i believe. Just ensure you go from stock and backup via Nandroid or similar.
Going back to GB, you can just flash via ODIN.

Basically -
you want ICS to be installed over a clean firmware install to avoid potential problems. i.e. Stock firmware (stock with root is fine by the way!) with a factory reset & cache wipe from recovery mode. THEN install ICS via CWM.
If you are on stock GB already, then just do a factory reset & Cache wipe and go from there with instructions on Onecosmics thread mentioned above etc.
Make sure you know what you're doing and backup your efs etc.
That help?

Cripes, you should do some forum reading, i'm worries you don't know enough to be doing this to your phone (sorry, i just don't want you to do something you're not sure about...)
CWM is generally installed when you root your phone, easiest method is with Chainfire's Root (i think SuperOneClick is also working again now, but i can't guarantee it'll work on JVU).
CF-Root (Chainfire's Root) look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
Make sure you use root for JVU, and follow instructions, flash with ODIN.
This will install CWM and superuser. You can do a backup in CWM. Please read up on how it works, there are plenty of guides out there. for EFS backup, read about, i'd advise it, just in case. With root, there are programs you can download from market to do it, or Nandroid, if you know how that works.
NB: ROOTING VOIDS YOUR WARANTEE
kapeesh?
whatever you do, make sure you know what you're doing before flashing anything.
and read up on CWM and recovery mode. There be dragons in there....

Yeah, I got the generic imei on flashing cm7, don't know why, as I'd used cm7 before with no issues. Fortunately had a backup. Bit scary though.

When i flashed from cm7 to ics it didnt recognise my iemi or get a signal.
I Odin'd back to JVU and flashed the kernal then went straight to ICS and its working fine.
