Ok so here is what is going on. my wife wanted her phone unrooted and returned to stock. Before I did anything she had MIUI ROM. So anywho, I downloaded the PG06img zip for the .98hboot. I have done hboot updates before so i figured this would be the least painful way. So i selected yes to update and set the phone down and let it do its thing. after a while the phone was done but it still was rooted, still had miui. so i rebooted into hboot again and now instead of s-off it is now s-on.
I have been working on this for about 5 hours now and have tried the RUU with PC but all i get are errors, I tried to flash a ROM and now it just flashes the boot screen and nothing else.
Please someone help. I hope this make sense. Oh and I have tried using adb but daemon keeps having an error.
I recently uprooted my shift what I did was 1st I backed up everything then I loaded a rooted regular shift Rom (preferably the original backup) then I loaded HTC sync to my computer once I made sure HTC shift was working properly then I turned off debug mode on my phone then connected it to my pc and ran the ruu and all was restored

Wtf got bored and unrooted my phone and it says there is a htc software update ready to be installed and everytime i click it, it reboots my phone into the updater and then error. And i have to take out the battery to restart my phone.
Is this a problem with the phone itself or is there a way to fix this?
Did you unroot by running the RUU? Are you s-off? Do you have stock recovery?
I did all the above and i still get it to start updating then error

Sounds like you are still rooted but with no recovery... may want to flash the ruu again to make sure it all took... hopes this is helpful.
Also if you are referring to a firmware update I have a extra evo that says that but is currently on 3.30 still so I don't even know if 3.70 ever came out to unrooted phones..(I need to check into that)

It says it has a htc software update and i am running 3.29.651.5 so it should update.
And thanks for the help so far
Forgot to mention i did a nand restore to get back to the stock rom, could that be the problem and if so where can i get the correct stock rom. Ive looked around and still havent found one

I guess it didnot unroot completely but i started to redo the procedure and it kill all my drivers. Had to reinstall each one manually and the ruu is not finding my phone anymore after the first step of turning it off and using the usb cord. Help?
I think I found the problem, I needed to change the title for my phone on HTC sync to my HTC, and it found it ok. I also had to reset the splash screen to stock before any of this could happen.
Thank you for giving me the ruu and the pointers I needed to make this happen. Now to bring the phone back for other reasons on why its not receiving signal from Sprint but for some reason it gets Verizon... I can't stand Verizon so its time for a new EVO
I got the perm root to go through, however nothing I did would push the recovery over, I am trying to run the stock RUU and even that's not working correctly. The first time I tried, it went to boot loader and then timed out. Same thing was happening when I was trying to push the recovery over. It's like when the device goes into bootloader, it's not longer recognized by my computer. Trying to reset the device now, and it looks like it just froze......So it won't even reset...when going through the power+vol down menu to reset it...
What error does the RUU give you..and do you have all the drivers installed
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Yes, I got the ADB to go through just fine, I got the perm root to run through, the device is recognized up until it goes to the fastboot in the bootloader, I have all the files, etc. The phone will not hard reset, it just stays frozen on the HTC black screen. It won't reboot into the bootloader when I try to run the stock RUU either, I am taking it back to exchange it today.
You can push the recovery and all that through terminal or adb..you don't have to fastboot..I had problems with fastboot if you want to try that
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Sound to me like bad drivers for fast boot. Try installing them and reinstalling them

Can you point me to the instructions to doing this? I read the ones in the root guide, however I didn't really understand it.
As for the fastboot drivers - do I need to do that from my PC or the device?
When I try to run the RUU, it reboots to the boot loader, but instead of going to the bootloader, it just goes to the black HTC screen and stays there. Any suggestions?
I did everything w/ terminal, there is a good post in the perma root thread around Feb 20th give or take a day on flashing recovery w/ Rom manager, also newkidd posted a one zip ruu thread,if all else fails u could give the irc a shoot lot of smart guys usually willing to help, good luck brother

When running the RUU and it reboots to bootloader/fastboot it will be a black screen for a few while it initializes , this is normal, don’t worry about it unless the RUU itself errors out just let it run. Mine took almost 4 minutes before it started the format and reload.

Unfortunately, it was erroring out, however, I managed to get the recovery loaded. Thanks for all your help.
I'm going to be activating my Hero pretty soon on Sprint but it's currently running CM7. Can I activate it while running CM7 or do I need to revert it back to the stock ROM to activate it? If I need to revert it back to stock, can someone help me out with how to do that cause it's been a while since I've done any of this.
If you're reactivating it on the same phone number it once used (ie. the MDN & MSID haven't changed) you should be fine without flashing. otherwise it's worth it to flash to a sense rom. Just go through the motions when programming with sprint over the phone because you won't be able to access the ## menus. Better yet, sprint.com/activate, no human interaction.

Definitely use a sense. You never know what they might have you do.

It's going to be for a different number, so I guess I'll flash it back to Sense. Do I just put the Sense ROM on my SD card and flash it with the boot menu?
Yes, you will need a sense rom. No, you do not need to unroot. Liquidsense or nfx are good choices. Flash them per instructions in their respective threads. Word to the wise, once you get a sense rom flashed, make a nand so you can go back and update your prl/profile easier.

Ok I'm running into a problem. Ever since I put the Liquid Sense file on my SD card, it won't let me get to the menu to install it. I turn my phone off then hold power + home and it just sits at the white screen that says HTC. I tried installing Liquid Sense through ROM Manager as well and same thing, just freezes at the white HTC screen. Any ideas on what to do? By the way, I tried installing the stock HTC ROM but the installer just says Error 170 USB Cable Error or something even though I follow all the steps correctly.
USB error 170 (WIN 7) is usually fixed by simply disconnecting and reconnecting the USB and re-running the RUU. Also, its likely that your failed attempt to run the RUU has wiped out your custom recovery, hence your inability to access it. At this point, you can try to re-flash a new recovery, or successfully run the RUU and re-root

Yeah I think you're right about something being wrong with the custom recovery so what I did was just installed the alternate recovery using ROM Manager and then I was able to install Liquid Sense from the new recovery menu. Thanks for the help
Hello,
I've just sold my phone and am due to send it out tomorrow. The buyer would like it unrooted and on the stock htc sense. I followed an unrooting guide which then flashed back a G2 unrooted rom.
Can anyone point me to the direction of the correct HTC rom, RUU or pcimg100.zip or whatever it's called or some method which I can flash the stock rom before I send it?
Thanks very much in advance,
Kris
Well first off stock does not have sense...its asop android....so if u want stock sense u will need the z rom from euro
Well when i say stock i meant the stock HTC Sense rom. Ive tried 3 RUUs including the 566666 one and they all give me an error 155. I try to plug the phone in when its in hoot and the device "Android 1.0" has no drivers.
I also found a 1.34 pc10img.zip file for the 1.34 but hoot doesn't see it.
Ok i tried to re-root (from being unrooted) and I'm now stuck at the HTC logo.... What the heck can i do in time for tomorrow
EDIT: I'm in clockworkmod recovery, can someone point me in the direction of a .zip I can flash for the stock 1.34 or 1.72?
Thanks would be a great help.
EDIT2: Phones bricked... *mumbles about little help from xda*
Cant be bricked, what can u do with it right now? And its a dz correct?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
I can't do anything with it, except charge it. It won't turn on, it won't go to recovery, it won't go to hoot it won't do anything. Nothing on usb either and to my knowledge no usb = no commands.
Last time i checked ti had s-ff, root, cid unlock the standard stuff..
Is the led on indicating its charging?
Dz or g2?? Which hboot was on it?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Yes the led is on but stays on forever even after I pull the plug.
Pull battery for 5 mins, if u put it back in does the led come on? What color?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
I pulled the battery multiple times tried vul down and trackpad etc. When ti comes on its orange solid, but i left it charging for 6 hours now its flashing orange and i don't wanna tough it incase this means anything different.
I'm not sure if adb works on unrooted devices, seems like this is the only way to go. Try to boot the recovery or bootloader via adb on your pc. Just look for the how-to's
