So my Epic is currently rooted but mostly stock except for the bloatware gone. I am running the stock android recovery and don't have access to a computer for odining back to stock. I saw QBking's video for returning to stock however it looks like I would need clockwork installed. Are there any other options available to bringing back to complete stock since my touch screen stopped working and I want to take it back to the store.
I don't know if my local store will care if it is rooted but I have insurance on it and want to make sure it is taken care of.
Nope computer is the only way... unless you can find the re_rfs rom this will take you back to a stock look but further poking will sow your rooted however they have the stock recovery you can flash so ill find you the link to the rom give me some time

Look at this
There is the stock recovery flashable to turn it back into sprint don't forget to take your sd card out and leave it at home.....

Thanks, I downloaded the stock look rom, but now I can't get clockwork to stick. I think as long as I can get SU removed, I don't think they will care. The screen should have no bearing on what apps are installed but I think my store is a non corporate store so I don't know.
Nevermind just keep ur sd card at home.... that would be the only give away and if they give you trouble then tell them its sprint policy reguardless of root or not to replace hardware if its hardware related.....

Thank you so much. do you think it is worth going back to that rom or just take my card out and take it in as it stands.
I am still having a hard time getting into cwm through rom manager
Can't three finger salute to recovery?
If you have cwm then go ahead and flash the stock recovery..... via 3 finger salute (power button camera and volume down) same time*
And flash the stock recovery.zip in the rerfs rom thread. And you'll be good once su is gone and you have a stock setup.

If you have the stock theme they wont care.... the SD has no data about root. It wont matter about bloatware, you can hide it without root... you should be fine.

It is an sdcard... it can be from an old phone or another phone. The clockworkmod folder is only there if you nandroid. Also apps like clockworknod tether from the market make this folder and don't need root.

Thank you all for the help. I have SU but I will go in there like I am and see what happens. I will keep the SD card out just in case. I can't seem to get rid of su.

True but how do you know some sprint tech will be smart enough to know that usually clockworkmod is a big red flag to them....and most root "nazis" will go a-wall still think its safer to delete it or remove the sd card.

I think taking your phone in rooted is overhyped. I've taken my phone in two seperate times rooted to be fixed. The only time I've ever heard anything about it is when the tech asked me where I got my cool theme.. Of course I said XDA!!
The cell phone police are not going to show up.

It all depends on the store... the store where I live (columbia, mo) doesn't care while the store where my niece lives (redwing, mn) refuses to work on rooted phones no matter what the issue... she brought it in rooted and they wouldn't even look at it after seeing it was rooted... they didn't redflag the account though because I told her to just unroot and bring it back... she did and they fixed it... so it all depends on the store...
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
Thank you all for your help. Evidentally my store doesn't care (edmond, ok). I walked in there and the tech and some customer were discussing CM7 so I figured all was good. He told me that he thought it was a loose connecting wire but it turned out that the digitizer failed and they would have to get me a new phone. Evidentally Epics are hard to get now so I am stuck with a Rumor 2 loaner phone until they find me another epic.

Ok, I've looked and searched and googled for the last few weeks now. I have a mytouch 4g that is on the stock rom w/ ota update. I do have perm root and s-off, per the thread here on xda. However, I can't get it to flash anything at all. Either in the hboot (bootloader) or in clockwork. I tried to flash a the cm7 (had on my hd2 and loved it) in clockwork, says can't open /directory addy with rom, then has this: (bad) installation aborted. I tried to flash a stock image to try and start over, the pd15img, had it named correctly etc. It goes for a sec, then says the .nbh files are missing for 3 different things. Can anyone help or is this phone effed? I can use it just fine, but the stock rom sucks and has stupid drm, which doesn't let me play most of my music. If someone can help and has paypal I WILL make a donation to you, I'm not rich, but am a busy father of 2 divorced with a full time job. PLEASE HELP!!!!
What cwm are you running?

3.0.0.5, I went to older versions of cwm also and still no dice at all. I am at a loss. I am by no means an expert, but have jailbroken iphones forever and did all the work on my hd2, so I'm not a complete noob but I still consider myself to be compared to others.

That's why you can't flash the stock image, which is Froyo based. 3.0.0.5 can only flash Gingerbread ROMs. However, that doesn't explain why CM7 won't boot for you, since 3.0.0.5 should successfully flash that. My suggestion would be to flash CWM 3.0.0.6 (can handle all ROMs) and then try re-flashing CM7 or the stock ROM.
I'll give it a whirl right now....will report back
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11322299&postcount=1
There's the download for it. I meant to put it in my previous post.
I was pretty sure I tried this a while ago, and I was right, still nothing. It says the same thing, (bad) installation aborted, before all of that it says can't open /filedirectory. Seriously peeved at this phone at this point. It will not flash anything at all.
It could also be a corrupt SD card, or even though you have S-OFF, your phone isn't actually fully rooted (seems unlikely though since CWM is successfully installed). I'm sure someone else will chime in here eventually.
i have a couple spares, i'll check it out real quick. usually my comp will tell me if there is an issue with the sd card, so I'll try another quick like. I have and am using an sdhc patriot that is ok per tmobile, and i have an 8 and 16gb laying around also
edit it was a kingston in there. would that make a difference?

Was just thinking about that. Is there any difference in doing it right on the phone compared to a pc?
Not that I have noticed. I get the same amount of bad downloads on pc our my phone. Buy when it does happen I just download again and wipe everything again. There is a list here somewhere of everything to wipe, can't remember off the top of my head.

How many bad downloads have you gotten? I always download ROM files with my PC, and then transfer them to the SD via the USB cable. I always verify the MD5 when I can, but most devs don't provide that these days.
I gotten about 11 since I have had this phone. Thinking its something to do with my router. Noticed I drop connection for a second randomly. which can cause file to be corrupt. To lazy to get a new router lol

Hello everybody! I'm new to the forums. I also got a really big question to ask. Well I usually root my phone with Visionary using a TempRoot. Then I updaed my Evo Shift via OTA, or going to the HTC Software update thing and now I can't really root my phone I guess. Is there a solution to root my phone even though I have Gingerbread? If not right now, maybe soon? I really want to use the tethering app to tether to my PS3. PLEASE HELP!!!!
As of now no there is not. And it might take a while before there is one. Idk if your phone already came with the ota update, but if it didn't you could have waited cuz the same day the ota went live there was a rooted version here already.
Just about 2 hrs later it was rooted.Pretty much a fundemental, if htc or sprint push out an ota update it will unroot your phone.

You can use the sprint RUU to downgrade to froyo and then root it, worked for me, I'm not on my computer so I can't link it but it shouldn't be that hard to find. And instead of temp rooting it there's a nice gui in the dev section that will perm root it pretty easily then u can flash the rooted 2.3 update through CWM

You will need a computer but if you remember setting up your gingerbread update it asks if you want to back up your device on google..... Use ruu to go back root and flash a rom like cm7 and you can restore your device or you can use titanium backup to... Well... Back up and restore your apps. Also google as you know backs up your contacts. So you should be set.... Anyone else let me know if there is something i missed.

The RUU can be found in the Evo Shift wiki by going to the following URL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Speedy
Luckily the RUU pretty much walks you through the process itself. You'll need the HTC sync drivers if I remember correctly in order for it to find your phone. You should be all good. Good luck, dood

I agree but i guess thats the price you pay to get the stock 2.3.4 right now
I spent most of the weekend researching what to do about this very thing. I was rooted but stock rom. I figured I needed a decision on what I was going to do before the OTA arrived.
After a lot of research I decided to go full S=off and install the Virtuous Unity ROM. I like Sense and it is a 3.0 ROM. If you wait for TMOB you'll only get 2.1.
EVERYTHING in this ROM works. None of the
"YOU GET THREADED TEXT MESSAGES!!! but the camera doesn't work"
Like in the bad old days of windows rooting.
I only wish I'd done this 6 months ago.
Yea every thing works but im wondering wit s off no root what can u do ?

Is it your intention to return to stock and run the phone unrooted with the 2.3.4 update or are you just concerned about having 2.3.4 on your phone? If you are looking for the most recent version of of Android OS, then MIUI is currently running 2.3.5... If you havent tried GenerationX mysense ROM, it is the newest update with bloat removed and i think there isnt anything broken with the faux's .7 kernel. Try it if you like stock, I bet you will like it.
I just want to get this straight, if someone can give an answer. My wife's phone currently has iced glacier and I want to go stock GB. If I take the phone to a Tmo store and ask for the update, it will take the phone back to stock and unroot? If so should I at least uninstall super user?

You could go to the store or you can download the same T Mobile sdcard update that Gr33nF0x posted http://megaupload.com/?d=N8XGHXJC (IF YOU ARE ROOTED YOU WILL LOSE IT)
1. Download the PD15IMG.zip file posted
2. Put file on the root of your sdcard (don't put it in any folder)
3. go to settings/applications make sure fastboot is unchecked (on 2.2.1)
4.power off
5. push and hold volume down and power till you get into hboot
6. it will scan file when its done it should ask you to update push volume up

The answer is yes. If you load the update, whether download the one on the forums here or update at T-mo you will lose root. No need to uninstall superuser, because the update will wipe all data.

Its my wifes phone and dosent need to mod it just needs to work properly. If I was to go the route of updating it with the rooted update, would I just need to flash through CW? To be honest I don't have much expreince with this phone as you can tell by how old her current rom is. Atleast with my phone its pretty much unbrickable, on this phone I wouldn't know how to recover if it did. I figure if tmobile does the update they are responsible for it.

Hello to anyone who knows about rooting. I work in medicne so I can figure out anything with the human body but not with rooting my Samsung epic on gingerbread 2.3.6. I have tried different developers, different sites, and read till I went crazy. The lingo gets old. It would be like me talking to the common public about the interpetation of hemodynamic readings and congestive heart failure. Anyhow, I rooted my epic 4g before it automatically upgraded to gingerbread...then it froze...I researched and unbricked it with a program everyone said did not work...but it worked to unbrick my phone even though it was supposed to root my phone...it just reset it to where it was usable again. When I try to go to certain websites for rooting files to download...they seem to be missing...hmmmm. So again, can the samsung epic 4g on gingerbread 2.3.6 be rooted? If it can, please direct me to some site...so far...I have tried about 5 different sites...no luck. It is also very hard to find anything specific on gingerbread 2.3.6 on rooting...alot of info. on the other versions.

there is a thread that tells you a 3 step method. if you wanna flash another rom then here is what I did. Download the rom you want and put on the sd card. download odin if you do not already have it. download cwm-5.0.2.7-epic4g.tar.md5. open odin uncheck every thing even reboot. then click pda put the cwm.tar into the pda. make sure your phone is in download mode. by holding the #1 button on the keyboard and the power button. plug the phone in to the usb. a yellow com box should pop up. hit start it shouldn't take long but it will complete and the phone will still be on. unplug your phone and take the battery out. put the battery back and turn on using the 3 finger method. ( vol. down, camera and power button) then wipe data, wipe cache, go into advance and wipe dalvik. press the back button click then click install zip from sdcard. click choose zip from sd card and then choose your rom and install that should be all. if you want to stay stock and just be rooted you need to download superuser.zip the link is found in the first video. you do the first part the same but instead of wiping every thing you go start into install zip and then choose the super user zip. reboot your system. then you have to go into the root explorer and delete a file but I cant remember the file name. but then you turn your phone off and then you have to odin cwm again. then you will be rooted. i will edit this when i can remember the file name unless some one beats me to the punch. i hope this helps if not pm me and i will try to help i am going to be flashing back to stock and re rooting to day so..
Thanks...I will try it again.

I could not find that file that you are suppose to delete but if you odin cwm. Then flash super user in cwm. Boot up. Go into your root explorer go ino system/etc/ it should say install.recovery.sh. I believe

i havent rooted stock gb. so forgive me. but is system/etc the correct path for the file that needs to be deleted? also better to necro rather than make a new thread for this.
I never deleted that file. I just odin'd cwm5 with reboot unchecked, then unplugged cable, poppef battery out and in and flashed a ROM. That file install-recovery.sh is still on my phone and in the directory you specified.

You don't need to unless you plan on staying stock. Otherwise just flash clockwork mod boot into it and flash a custom rom.

The phone will remain stock or I would just flash fc09 deoxed. It's for my wife I might in the future upgrade her but this is her first android so I'm trying to go slow with it and not barrage her with too many changes.

Isnt that a ei22 kernel though from my memory there is not a fc09 kernel of that sort.
i used this kernel on my friends epic, who wanted to stay stock fc09
ShadowKernel-FC09-v1.0.1
I REALLY hate to start another thread here. But i don't know what im doing with this phone. Every time I tell my phone to power off, it reboots into cwm (2nd int). I really need someone to guide me with this phone so I dont have to keep starting new threads.

I was having the same issues as well. So I unrooted my phone and removed all apps related to rooting, yet it still boots into CWM Recovery. So how do I get rid of CWM?

If there's more than one way to get rid of it, SBFing would be the easiest and safest way.
You can back up all the APKs and data from your non root apps and restore it afterwards.
