I just bought a used G2 and it is ruining Miui. How do i revert back to the factory rom?
you'll need to flash the stock rom or run the recovery from the phone
Sent from my HTC Desire Z running MIUI 1.8.12 with Pershoot Kernel.
Thanks, but how do you run the recovery from the phone? I dont know what that means?
Hi,
Check out the HTC G2 wiki
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision
I tried the technique listed above and it still won't revert to the original software. Is there any other way i can make the phone like it was in the box?

You tried which technique? Did you follow the "returning to stock" procedure from the Wiki? That will unroot and return your phone to bone-stock.
If you want to keep root but be on stock ROM, just go to the dev section and download a stock pre-rooted ROM.

Hello everyone.
I'm a newbie here.
I am about to flash my Mytouch with a ROM for the 1st time. Now Before I do this I would like to find out how to revert back to the stock ROM.
I've searched the web a little bit and couldn't find much. I only really found how to unroot.
Can someone point me in the right direction please

It depends how you root your phone...gfree method or root.sh via visionary but it shows you how to unroot in the bible section under android development. See link below and scroll down to "UNROOTING"

How would I go about finding/putting the stock ROM back?

Part of the unrooting process is that the stock rom is installed again. Just follow those steps listed in the guide above and you will have s-on again with stock rom. Nothing extra that you need to flash separately.
I have actually rooted with the gfree method, installed a custom rom, unrooted with the guide above (back to s-on and stock rom) and rooted again via root.sh/visionary so I know it works.
Hi guys this is the first time i have rooted and flashed a device. I managed rooting my N7 and flashing PA Rom and Motley kernel. Now I want to flash back to stock rom and update to 4.1.2 via OTA or directly flash the official 4.1.2 pure stock. However I still want to maintain root and CWM. Is this possible? Can someone please help me out with details as kind of a noob. I even want to understand how Titanium Backup works. If i backup my apps and then do a factory reset while flashing a new rom how does the backup remain if everything is lost in factory reset. Thanks a lot for helping.

Do it manually like I did, its just as quick as the OTA, you keep all your files and I didn't loose root, was done in 5 mins.
Heres the thread to the manual tutorial:

Can I flash this over a custom ROM or does it have to be stock rom?

The update can only be applied to a completely stock rom, if you have made any changes to the rom(build.prop edits,etc) the zip will fail to flash

You need a stock RUU, but I'm not sure where to find those. Once you have the stock RUU, adb push the update and your all strawberries and cream
The update will fail if build.prop is modifed and most custom roms modify that. So it would be safer to flash stock image and sideload the update.
Or else wait for the custom ROM developer to incorporate those changes.
i am new to this hacking stuff and i just rooted my nexus 7. i was wondering if i flash cm10.1 can i revert back to the stock rom if i need to return my tablet or something. because if something happens ill revert back to the stock rom, unroot , relock the boot loader, factory reset, then get a replacement model
it's easy to go back to stock rom/kernel, also to relock. i think using a toolkit is the easiest way. enjoy CM and other roms/kernels
How do you revert back to the stock rom though

HI
Somebody here can help me , i want to remove twrp ,and get back my stock recovery.How do i do that?
And if i flash the stock rom does it come with the kernel .
Flash the stock ROM, update.
This will return you to stock recovery and stock kernel, and if you are on the stock ROM now (not a custom ROM) you will not have to do a full wipe. SO you can keep your apps/settings/data
Thats easy thanks

Yes, it is quite easy.
Do your homework though, because you can just as easily brick your phone.

If you're looking at flashing only the kernel, you might check out this post. Be careful with this, though - if you do this method wrong, it is possible to hard-brick your device. Also, it's for the AT&T S4 only.
Hi, my device is actually running the latest xiaomi.eu [DEV] ROM, I think it's the 9.4.25. I would like to try AOSP Roms like Aosip, LOS and the others. Can I go back to MIUI after that? I'm asking this because I wouldn't like to lose Stock Camera quality, yeah, I know that GCam exists, but honestly? It's not THAT good, at least with mine settings.
I wouldn't I don't think the unofficial TWRPs are allowing you to go back to official MIUI, but i am not certain of this.
Nobody will answer my questions, and yes i agree gcam does not support our 48mpixel camera so it's useless.
You can revert back to miui,
Download the stock firmware (fastboot) from here, extract it on your computer and then flash it to your phone using "Xiaomi Flash Tool", there is a step by step guide there, just make sure to backup before that.
