How can I unroot (used unrevoked previously) & re-root?

At some point in the past, I rooted my Evo with Unrevoked. I'd like to undo that (if necessary?), in order to run CM7. My current baseband version is 2.15.00.11.19. I'm on 2.2. What do I need to do in order to either 1) return to stock and update to 2.3 or 2) install CM7?

All you need to do is put cm7 on your SD go into recovery do a full wipe (factory reset/data, data, system, cache, boot, sd-ext, android_secure, dalvik cache, etc but not SD card or battery stats) go to flash zip from SD locate and select cm7 wipe cache and dalvik cache again flash gapps wipe cache and dalvik, reboot and presto! you're now on cm7 no need to unroot/reroot or go back to stock

hey,
Yeah just like evil said, place it in your sd card, do your wipes and flash it. if you unroot then you wont be flashing roms at all! Just google how to flash a rom and it will give you pictures and everything, now if you want to update your device dont unroot, just find a stock sense rooted rom right here on XDA. Itl be allready updated and rooted for your flashing pleasure!

[Q] installing new slim bean rom on SGH-I337M

I am currently using a another custom rom on S4 SGH-I337M.
I would like to install the Slim Bean 2 stable rom on to it.
I am very new the installing roms etc,. Just rooted and installed CWM on my phone last week.
My question is do I doing the following procedure to install
5.Now, perform data wiping task. To do so, select wipe data/factory reset, then select Yes on next screen to confirm your action. Wait few minutes till the data wipe is complete. Now come back to CWM recovery main menu. Select wipe cache partition and after wiping process done, select Wipe Dalvik Cache under advance option to perform Dalvik cache wiping.
Or follow the guide on Slim Bean sire:-
SlimBean 4.3 installation instructions
After there is a some confusion about how to install 4.3, here is a list of what's absolutely necessary
■full wipe (means: wipe data / factory reset and format /system)
■install Slim 4.3 ROM
■install Slim 4.3 gapps
■Reboot
What is the difference between the two guides.
As I mentione I have been doing quite a bit of reading and I was able to following the instruction when i first rooted to install custom Rom my phone. But is a little confusing with so much out there to read.
Thanks in advance for any help and suggestions.

Okay dude I was a noob too just a few weeks ago and I was staying over the little things too. Basically the only things you need to wipe are cache and dalvik cache and format/data but beware you should always have a backup of your current Rom because wiping data will make your phone unable to boot incase the zip file you downloaded doesn't install. In that case you can simply restore your rom download anther and try again so yeah

There's no real difference between those 2 guides.
Slim ROMs always recommend manually formatting system (as well as wiping cache / dalvik / data) but in theory it shouldn't be necessary. As you flash a ROM if you watch all the text on your screen you'll see that it formats the system itself. When you do a data wipe / factory reset you'll notice that it also wipes the cache at the same time. There's no harm doing it twice and I usually end up doing more than necessary.
As the previous poster said, ALWAYS make a backup before you do anything serious. My backups consist of:
- nandroid backup (with CWM or TWRP)
- back up all user apps and data (never system apps/data) with Titanium Backup Pro (I actually do these 3x/wk on a schedule)
- backup Calls and Messages to xml with TiBu Pro
Whenever I change from one custom ROM to another (say, Cyanogenmod to Slim) or one Android version to another (4.3 to 4.4) I do all of the following...
- wipe data / factory reset
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik
- mount system
- format system
- flash ROM
- flash GAPPS
- with Kit Kat (Android 4.4) I've also been flashing SuperSU1.69.zip since some of the early Kit Kat ROMs were breaking Superuser.
- reboot
- follow the basic setup procedures to get your main Google account going
- open Play Store and get TiBu and Pro Key again
- open TiBu and do a batch action: "restore missing apps with data", then restore calls and messages from xml
- go into settings and tweak away......
When I update to a new version of my current ROM (like a new nightly or weekly or new stable version) I do the following...
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik
- flash ROM
- flash GAPPs
- reboot
This is a "dirty flash" and can cause problems so do it at your own risk. Worst case scenario is that you might have to restore your backup or do a proper full wipe and try again...

I should also mention, if you've already taken a stock phone and followed instructions to root and get a ROM going then what you're trying to do now is even easier. As long as you have CWM and make a backup you don't need to worry. Just make sure you always download the correct version of the ROM for your phone as well as the correct GAPPS package for the Android version you're flashing.
