If you remember what the original boot screen was you might be able to find it on the web. Install any 2.1 sense rom, then flash the right boot screen, delete super use and I'm willing to bet it'll fool any sales rep so you can upgrade your phone. That's the best solution I can think of.
Hey, i'm on MTS too, why do you need to flash the original ROM? (just curious)
Anywho, maybe someone else here can answer this but.......
i do have a backup of the original 2.1 on my phone. I'm not sure if i can send you that so you have something to put on your phone and restore to?
Those are some good suggestions and I dont know if that would work I think you'd have to ask the development about that

You could do it through Dropbox or something and then he could put it in his recovery's back up folder and then restore the back up through recovery. Or, if you are S-off you could restore through Hboot with a HERCIMG.zip too. Just a couple of ideas that should work.

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

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?

Could also be a bad download. Id delete the old redownload whatever rom your wanting. Make sure you do a full wipe of everything and wouldn't hurt to do out a second time.

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

Glad you got it working! Payment is totally out of the question. The XDA community is sort of a "pay it forward" sorta thing. If I had paid everyone that's helped me with things over the years, I'd be broke!

Does a stock rom image for the continuum exist that can be flashed with Odin and not CWM? I dont think my phone is bricked cause I can get into the download and recovery screens. I just cant do anything from the recovery screen its stuck.
Im either gonna fix this or smash this phone to pieces. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Lol, chill... I'll go on my computer now and share the link with you xP

Ok so I might not smash it but boy is this frustrating.
Thanks for your help lol =)))
Ive done some extensive searching and I havent found a single stock continuum rom for odin anywhere. So if you could create one or point me in the direction of where I could download one I would appreciate that.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967165
Check that out.... Flash with Odin.. Then find (in the Continuum Android Development section) the DL17 update zip, and put that on your sdcard (named update.zip)...
Then you should be good to go...
However, i highly suggest you getting CWM working... Recovering is a lot easier with it... If you are having difficulty go log onto the IRC (http://webchat.freenode.net/) with the #Samsung-Continuum and i will help you out
You are my effin hero... All I needed was the kernel and it fired right up. Ill be keeping these files close cause Im sure Ill need them again.
Thank you!!!!
Justin
Lmao, no problem man.. haha.. Thank imnuts too for all of his development
BTW: If you stop by the IRC i will help you get cwm up and working.. Then you can flash themes, make backups, and flash my awesome Softkey Modifications
Any idea why I cant access data? Im on the phone with verizon but still no luck..
Also cant access the sd card from my pc and wifi on the phone will not connect..
Verizon is stumped they told me to take it back to the store for a replacement..
What a long day lol =)
Also voice service works I can make calls and send/receive text messages just no data. No 3g indicator.
Nevermind I got it figured out.. Everything is running normally with the DL17 clean rom.
Thanks again

Lol, with Nandroid backup, it makes a compleeeete backup of everything.... Which means it backs up your email logins, facebook logins, GOOGLE logins, everything... Which means they could buy apps on the market using your account..... Not good, 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 have not been able to do tis all day at work i tried 3 different devices and no go im starting to think that its not possible and you will have to wait for a new root.. (which is never a long wait).... Thanks to the fine people here at XDA.
I have O2 HD2 which has a fault, I shall be sending this back to HTC for repair but I would like help to make sure everything is as it should be.
I visited HTC website and downloaded the latest HD2 O2 firmware , unzipped the file and placed LEOIMG.nbh on the SD card and installed that.
my phone now says SPL-3.03.0000 is this correct ? is there anything else i need to do?
thank you for your help.
Yep, spot on.
Amazing how messed up and confused people get over it.
If you search there are many guides that show in detail how to do this. In the future before you start flashing you should know how to revert changes before you flash anything.

In all fairness it was a long time ago that i did anything other than update my android sd build , but I had read how to uninstall the HSPL when i originally did it.
I was just checking incase it turned out i needed to do anything else (I just wanted to make sure) , but turned out it really was that simple
HTC sent my phone back after 1 day (i have to wait until monday until UPS redeliver as i was out) , hope it came back fixed.
Hey.
im all new to this with rooting a phone, did a test to root my phone with AAHK with no result, i can enter bootloader och recoverymode. but it stays on the white screen with htc logo when i start it up. I regret that I gotten myself into this because its to much for me. so now i will put my sd card in another phone to put over the PD98IMG.zip file there, and then load it up via my bootloader, and now to my question, when i enter that stock rom of PD98IMG, will it be in stock so i can upgrade the official android updates to 2.3.5 and sense 3.0 from there?
regards Kenny
Do a full wipe (cache, Dalvik & data) then flash any ROM you want (if you want a stock look and feel I suggest AndroidRevolutionHD or Leedroid)

The inspire got an update from at&t last week (it's the phone I have). The hack kit can't root it yet - well, so was the message from last week. If you go to the irc room it's posted on top. I haven't checked since then.
The part about "what jave you read" is that the user is setting himself up to be spoon fed everyrhing. He needs to read. After have been answered that question, most likely he would come back and ask more questions. We should help but without spoon feeding them all the answers. A few are fine.
Edit: nevermind, coffee still hasn't kicked in. Just re-read hist post and it seems he is not interested in rooting anymore.
