I am trying to unroot my sister Mytouch 4G and I'm having a hard time getting the PD15IMG to read from bootloader. I believe the goldcard method was used to root. Not sure what all that means but this is what it reads under bootloader:
Glacier PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT 0.85.2007
MICROP-0429
RADIO -26.03.02.26_M
EMMC-BOOT
She is currently on Virtuous Sense rom 4.0 if this help
I've tested ALL of the PD15IMG from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1476745
None of them work
I really need to unroot because I'm giving it to my niece and she will not know how to keep up on custom ROMS in case something should happen.
Can someone please help me out or point me in the right direction??
Thank you for any help
I have an idea. Pick a rom. And remove root permissions from it. I'll try and do it for you, just tell me the rom. The custom recovery and the s-off will stick though if you do this.

If it's not rooted, is it partly rooted or something? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
It's not the SPL that has root, it's the rom you are using ... so we can't tell from the fastboot information you posted. Most rooted roms have the superuser app installed .. do you have that?
If not you could try searching for 'root' in the market, and download an app that requires root (like PicMe). If it works, then you have root!
I wasn't as lucky as i were hoping for, unfortunatly it has not been rooted.
Do i have a "Perfect SPL"? If so, should i just drop trying to get the MyHERO ROM installed?
i have a perfect spl and installed myhero on my mytouch no problems.

What resources did you use?
I'd be really happy if you could provide some links or something
To root that having that SPL, you will have to use goldcard method...
what? i rooted useing cyanogen's tutorial with flashrec, and I just flashed the myhero rom after wiping in recovery... same as normal..
my SPL is the .0006 perfect one
oh and also my magic is 32B mytouch
Is the only way to get a HERO ROM on this phone using a goldcard? Or is it possible to flash a new SPL and use a custom rom without a goldcard?

There's no need to use a Goldcard, even with a perfect SPL, if you just want to flash a new ROM and gain root. If you want to use fastboot at all, then yes, you must flash a new "imperfect" SPL.
Follow Cyanogen's guide here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_MT3G/Magic_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod
Pixelkid, I also have a danish Magic and had the same SPL a few weeks back. I used the goldcard trick from this guide. Why don't you want to use a goldcard?

Use any of the rooting methods you see, follow the step where they downgrade to 1.5 and install the patches and recovery. At this point you stand rooted.
Do not flash a new rom and you are good to go.

Kinda odd that you already now have S-OFF. But you're gonna have to downgrade back to 2.2.1 first. This thread will show you everything that you need to do/know.

Doesn't gingerbreak.apk work if S-Off?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
Gingerbreak won't work.
On the other hand, having S-OFF allows it to flash PD15IMG with recovery, for example. Which in turn allows everything else.
You totally didn't need to use the XTC clip! And what kind of a noob are you if you have an XTC clip? ;-)
But now that you have...

Use the file that just contains ClockworkMod and ENG HBoot:

Then boot into recovery and flash any ROM you want to. Or root the stock ROM using the superuser update zip from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828 (use the "ef" Eclair/Froyo version)
hi, I have a wildfire with hboot 1.01.0002, S-ON and froyo 2.2.1
what can I do to have root? I know what I've to do, but how?
at first, I need to downgrade hboot to 1.01.0001 and then I can use some tools to have S-OFF, right? so, how can I downgrade?
also, is there a tool to use my configuration without any changes?
I've read here in some threads, that some hboot 1.01.0002 works with revolutionary,is it correct?really....I've finished ideas....
you only must read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035
Do it! my wildfire now is S-off and root with that tuto...
Good luck!
that is the best one to use, i rooted my HTC wildfire yesterday, i had to downgrade aswell.
if you need any questions answering, PM me i have some experience
thanks
