where can i find the stock 2.1. i want the regular original version issued to all users.
Well, a few pages back in this forum is "Flashback v21." That will unroot your phone, and put the original ROM and recovery image on it, as well as pretty much erasing all your junk (which you should be doing anyway if you wanna go back to stock). Last I checked, the downloads didn't work though. I managed to get it from ONE of the download sites from multiupload. You just have to keep trying until you find one that works.
In case you have no luck, here is another link that should work for FlashBack21_v1.zip:
FlashBack21_v1.zip
also, if it helps at all... i have quite a few "stock" ROMs out there
click the "Got Stock?" link in my sig to see!

I just tried the Megaupload link from the original post and it worked just fine
Each of those upload sites have different policies relating to when a posted file "expires", so if one of the links doesn't work, try a different one. (By retrieving files using those links, you will be helping other XDA users - downloading from the original links will reset the "last accessed" timestamp and prolong the availability of those files from the original download links).
Please be sure to read the instructions.

Alright guys, I have tried every ROM that's available for the T-Mobile HD2, and I still prefer the stock ROM. I have seen a list of every ROM available for HD2, but I did not see a ROM to go back to stock. Anyone got any ideas?
gO THERE...

Someone should sticky that thread in the Tmousa forum... we've had numerous new threads started asking that same question... and this forum hasn't even been around a week.
that thread does not have the shipped rom
this is the ROM I use to flash back to before Flashing to a newer ROM.

Do you have a direct link or the file?
I went to your link, which leads back to XDA, but the link in the thread was dead.
It will not allow me to upload the actual file. I guess I did not realize that the links have became dead. I do have the file and it reads
RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.10.531.0_Radio_Signed_15.34.50.07U_2.08.50.08_2_Ship
If that is the exact version you are looking for I can try to get it to you, however I am for some reason unable to upload it as an attachment.
i thought i had a proper back up of my gapps 1.3 but i goofed...and i lost my gapps. i am running 2.1 update1 kernal 2.6.29 build sch-i500.dio1. i have tried using the gapps at cyanogen's page for fascinate but i can't get an update zip to work. says they are not signed so it can varify... please if anyone has a back up signed that works with my build i will donate to your beer fund! been up all night trying to figure this one out.
try looking for the fascinate /system dump, should be able to help you out some. If not, then look at the development forum for the back to stock flash file.
found odin and stock files though its honestly i get nervous when i use odin. if anyone has another fix i would appericate it.
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=fascinate+system+dump
i am not an idiot and that was uncalled for link. yes i know to google... i was having trouble finding a site that hadn't yanked it so i am checking out all my options. i do want help mind you and i offered a beer fund donation so plz show a little respect.
tried two one had a virus and i am poking around the other...least i found some not yanked finally.
The thread has mirrors since the original link went dead. Just look through it and I'm sure you'll find the mirrors. I even made sure at least one worked before posting the last time.
odin it was....tried a few differnt things with the dump but it wouldn't get running even after a factory restore. thanks!!
Hey guys, all credit goes to retnuh730, he posted these directions to help someone unroot in the dev sections. I happened to go through the google doc and was very impressed with how helpful/precise it is and wanted to share them in the GENERAL section just in case someone could use help unrooting.
Edit: retnuh said he can't take credit for the instructions because he bookmarked them awhile back when he came across them, (but thanks for posting anyway). so thanks to whoever made these instructions!
Edit 2: fixed the links, thanks guys for the catch

sorry guys, i just copied and pasted the thread comment itself. it should be fixed now.
Wow, talk about a timely post. I was helping a friend unroot tonight due to a dropped Evo and the resulting broken glass screen. I thought I had it pretty down pat meaning I read about it, knew the process but couldn't find a working RUU. (I was in a hurry as well). Now I have the ammunition to accomplish the task. Thanks again.
I have done this to my phone several times, and also for some friends a few times too. Thanks OP for the links. I know the process by heart, but for people still following the old tutorial on here this should help because the old tutorial still links an old RUU and you will get the main version is error, which happened to me. It wasn't until I downloaded the 3.70 RUU that it worked.
Thanks for the post.
Tried to download teh RUU and it said decompression failed, I am on a mac and have tried this with different versions and they all fail. What the eff is going on?
Can you unroot to stock without using the USB connector
My HTC Evo 4G usb port broke off the motherboard, is there anyway to unroot back to stock without using the usb connector that is required with the RUU way?
I am trying to restore my A500 to stock so it will go back to getting the OTA updates. I actually tried downloading one of the "complete" 3.1 updates, but it will not flash over my current 3.1 firmware (which was the one that was leaked a while ago) but it fails. My firmware version for that leaked file seems old compared to what is current and it wont get the OTA update... so thought I would try to go back to stock.
I found a link for the stock update.zip on these forums, but the acer cdn keeps saying access denied when I try to download it. Does anyone have Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.104.02_COM_GEN1 for download or know of a mirror?
+1, my tablet is freaking going bananas right now and I need a solution like asap!?
+1 again.
I'm also waiting for this and cannot find it online or on these forums.
Of Course this is the one i need to and its no where to be found on the internet someone important please help or upload your recovery PLEASE!
Seems a lot of people need this..
Why is this update so difficult/impossible to find?
I have added multiple ROMs to my device and the most recent made the mistake of not doing enough research. All it will do is vibrate at power up and I need the stock recovery to fix.
so far the only help I could give is
check my signature you should find some good files...
someone get back to stock from my files...
maybe I will do a tutorial... but I am lazy... so try to search my post in the weboard, I posted somewhere already.
I need my acer a500 back to day one stock and currently my screen has a caution sign with a little android dude...
I had a custom rom and i lost my backup so i cannot restore
I need to get back to Acer_A500_0.000.00_1.104.02_COM_GEN1 and i cannot find it anywhere on the internet or on these forums. The cdn site doesnt work so idk what to do.
Im a noob at this going back to stock thing.
Anything would be greatly appreciated
Close this tread since no one will help.
Calm down guy.... help comes when someone has free time from the job/wife/house/car/etc...
Sounds like you need to download a copy of Acer_A500_4.010.11_COM_GEN2
What rom are you currently on and what recovery do you have installed?
Since the CDN site are no longer active ( 3.0.1 are dead.... HC 3.1 are still alive )... and going by what you'd requested (1.104.02_COM_GEN1).... I assumed you are in the US region...
previously... people were trying your method in order to get OTA updates... but since we have the latest "FULL" packages.... what is stopping you from flashing/updating to the latest for US region ??
Full Package and Update thread by Vache:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113878
and the latest for US region is:
Acer_A500_4.010.11_COM_GEN2 ( Honeycomb 3.1 .... no longer 3.0.1
link here: ( make sure to use Acer decrypter with the file !!! )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16326563&postcount=26
then follow by interim updates to:
Acer_A500_4.010.13_COM_GEN2
make sure to wipe and factory reset before updating !!
They are all available at the above thread
*** You do NOT need to be rooted when using the full packages.... just make sure your card is formatted with FAT32 and place the file at the root directory.
UnicornKaz- I'm not understanding what you just said about method?
.10 is a ~47 meg file
Acer_A500_4.010.11_COM_GEN2 is a 366 meg file
He needs .11. I will post a google documents link for the OP in a minute...

thanks guy... for some odd reason IE9 is giving me fits on google documents... but that's a whole new thread.
so perhaps that's why you thought some people were having issues getting the ota's? lol
Here's the decrypted update.zip

Why not flash the latest OTA and use the root tool from market to reinstall the stock recovery?
side note, i love how he only gave the community 4 hours then stormed off. Sense of entitlement anyone?

That's sorta what we told him (her?)... I think the problem is that the noobs aren't sure which rom/update is a full rom vs update. He should be able to figure it out now.
Yes Thank you to everyone for putting up with my annoyance and thank you all your help(the rush was my screen was black for awhile with no response lol), i just couldnt figure out everything i was reading. Just seemed like everything i was looking for wasnt really directly what i needed.
Mostly due to this is still a new process for alot of people (including me), but thats why xda rules the web!!
Sorry for the spam on the forums!
