Having issues unrooting!

I'm using flipz 1.56 RUU and for some reason, when it tells me to connect the phone to the PC, it says it cannot be found. I usually use a MAC to connect my Hero and all sorts of stuff, and I just found a PC to be able to unroot. What seems to be the issue? I know the phone is connected because I can look at it's folders and such.

I'm having this EXACT same issue... But, if you can look at its folders, go into the notifications and set it to "charge only" and make sure USB debugging is enabled.

You need to install HTC Sync on the PC in order to use the RUU.

Grrr...oh well unrooting I stay

Am about to unroot so I can take my Hero in to sprint, I have dust under the screen. Anyone want to point out the best (easiest) way to unroot?
I seen a post where it could be done by just sdcard, would that or using the kitchen be the best way to go?
I am running a 2.1 ROM.
Thanks!

Method 1 is dead simple

Just 5 steps?? WoW
I looked for a little bit today at work and could not find anything this easy. LOL
Anyone tested this?
1. Download the following file: http://www.multiupload.com/Q3RMV5MTRF
2. place in /root of SD card
3. Reboot phone into HBoot mode, by holding Volume Down
4. Press action (the trackball) when prompted
5. Reboot phone

while i havent done it, so cant confirm, the unroot from sd does seem to be the most foolproof way to do it. all their going to look for is the correct recovery.img and stock feel, so it only makes sense

Cool, Thanks!! I am going to give this a try (15 mins before I run in to sprint) I am going to hate to go with about my custom rom and add the added stuff I get with root!

HBoot is recovery mode, When you power up the phone holding down the volume button.

{EDIT} Still not sure what the problem was. But I ran the older kitchen and tried the rooter and it worked just jine. {edit}
OK, I did the 5 little steps and then I went to kitchen to root my phone again..
I phone reboots and when I try to go to HBoot so I can nandroid a backup I have I get this screen.

Problems unrooting...

Hi folks.
I'm trying to unroot my Wildfire in order to get the OTA update of the official FroYo release.
The problem is, I keep getting the below error message every time I run the RUU.

I'm using:
Windows XP Professional (SP3)
HBOOT drivers installed
HTC Sync uninstalled (registry clean has been carried out)
Correct RRU (UK TMOBILE) downloaded
Phone set to Disk Drive AND Sync (without software on there).
The current ROM is MoDaCo's 2.1 Stock build.
Has anyone else had this problem who can give me a heads up? It's starting to get on my nerves as I just want normal FroYo.
If no one has a solution, can someone provide the stock UK TMOBILE 2.1 Eclair ROM that I can flash with instead?
Thanks in advance,
Mark

And I'm trying to flash the T-Mobile 2.1 RRU, which is where I get the error.
::EDIT::
When I use the RUU for the unbranded 2.2 then I don't get the above error ... I get error 131 - Customer ID Error.

Bump to the top...
...would really like some help, folks. I know I'm being pushy, rude, and other things, but surely someone's come across this before?!

You don't have to put your phone in disk drive mode...did you check?

I've tried it in Charge Only, Disk Drive and Sync.

It seems to be a system error...in my opinion if you run that RUU in any other computer will be ok...

Please don't take this the wrong way - but if that's the advice you're going to give me after one day then I'd prefer you to not post.
If you could READ my original post, I've tried it on Windows XP Professional (SP3) and Windows 7 Professional (x64).
NEITHER worked.

Sorry...I did'n notice that you tried 2 different systems...I can't find this in your post...

I had the same problem. The RUU installation file did not download completely. Compare the file size on your computer and on the shipped roms website.
I think this will solve your problem.

If you bother to search instead of needlessy bumping your own thread and snapping at people who are trying to help you would of discovered by now that the 131 error code is related to the gold card.

Yes, I noticed that it was due to it not downloading correctly.
However, my problem thickens...
I'm trying to flash the T-Mobile RUU from Shipped-ROMS, but now it's displaying error 140. This is because my recovery is of a different version (or something).
Any ideas? I can't use the GoldCard method as I don't have a Micro SD adapter.
And sorry for snapping at that poor bloke - I realised that that was completely out of order. So, if you're reading this, please accept my apology:
Sorry, fella.
Thanks in advance,
Mark

ive got a similar thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881277 not one damn reponse.. AAAAARRRRGH! ive searched and found a couple of things that dont work would be nice if someone took the time

I've bricked my PHONE ! no restore point and no original SD CARD

I've bricked my phone and I have lost my original micro SD card ... ...
I've tried using Windows Phone Support Tool but it says,
The tool cannot recover this phone. 'Please contact technical support'.. ...
I've recently reinstalled my windows to windows 7 so l'd lost my recover in my Zune too.. ...
Is there anyway to recover the phone ?
I'd looked at Walshed Support Tool, does it work on this problem ?
Zune error message C101002E

any help? I have same problem.

You could try and contact tech support.

I have same problem but it's impossible for me to contact Dell support, I tried to call them in US but they tell me to join German support and I don't speak German at all...
Is anybody have a mail adress for DVP support in German or US???

[email protected]

Thanks a lot I will try it tomorrow!

I tried but I have this message:

No...you are screwed.

my phone is still under warranty but I can't contact the service...
And my Tag number refer to a server and not a DVP...

You changed the SD Card...your phone's warranty is no longer valid.

I never change my SD card but i have this message now:

The title of this post says you did: "I've bricked my PHONE ! no restore point and no original SD CARD". If it is in fact the case that you did not remove the SIM it should still be under warranty. Try to call up Dell UK.

Thanks ^^

I've called dell UK and told me my phone was a US so I have to call up US... ... I've called up US they said they are happy to exchange for phone for me providing I am in the US .... .... so back to square one ... ... but problem is, the original SD card is not there anymore... ... that's not under warranty right ?
I got friends in US but I don't want to bother them if it's not gona be under warranty unless I can get warranty stickers from ebay ?

Well you voided your warranty so you are at a loss. The first thing they are going to check is if you screwed with your SD card

Your best best at this point is to start your phone in the bootloader mode by inserting the battery and then holding power, vol down, and camera untill the image shows up of a laptop and a phone. Then download the 7704 image and extract it. Copy that to C:\Program Files\Zune. Open a command prompt there. Type UpdateWP.exe /ffu LongFileName.ffu and hit enter.

Thanks very MUCH !

[Q] "Hello world, PM EasyView!"? Possible malware caught on screenshot?

I recently took a screenshot that revealed another background window behind a warning message window that says "Hello world, PM EasyView!"
Is this some kind of malware? I tried scanning my phone with Lookout Security and it did not detect anything suspicious.
It all began when all of a sudden my stock 2.2.2 Defy's Task Manager kept showing popup messages telling me that my Hotmail app is running for too long and is consuming memory. This never happened before, ie. Task Manager app showing warning messages about apps running for too long. I suspect a malware infestation. Please advise.

If you are scared that you are infected by malware the only "safe" thing to do is a full data wipe.
You dont have clockworkmod installed do you? Would be helpfull to have a full copy of the system to analyze it. I think clockworkmod would be a perfekt method to get a copy of the whole system.

sorry i don't know how to solve this. maybe it's time for you to change to some other ROMs...

Well not exactly scared but I was just wondering about the origin of that "Hello world" message. "PMEasyView"? I wasn't able to find any app or developer by that name among the apps installed on my phone. Just was wondering if anyone here knew thats all. I rooted my phone using SuperOneClick, does it install Clockworkmod too? Or do I have to do it separately?

I did install CM 7.1(2.3.7) but I didn't quite like it..I mean don't get me wrong..CM 7.1 is awesome but the ADW launcher kept crashing on me, something was eating up the battery way to fast and this is weird but I found that the sound quality(headphone and speaker) had actually deteriorated..maybe I didn't get some settings right but anyways I decided to roll back to the Motorola stock 2.2.2 froyo JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1.7 and wait until CM9 was out.
Thanks for the replies guys..really appreciate you taking the time.

If adw doesn't work for you, you can download another one from the market. I use go launcher and it works without any problems and damn fast. You should give it a try.

Well it's typical behavior of mallware - I dont have information, that stock task manager will inform you, that some process is running more than x minutes ... try wipe to factory settings and you'll be sure.

Rooting doesn't install Clockworkmod. You only get superuser after rooting. Install 2nd-init and you get Clockworkmod.
You should start using Droidwall and AVG antivirus pro. Try limit the data freedom running in the background.

Thanks for the replies guys. I think I'll wait for CM9. I do have Droidwall installed and I've scanned my phone thoroughly with Lookout Security but nothing was detected. Is it possible that the firmware posted here, the 2.2.2 India one is somehow infected?

I took another screenshot of the supposed malware today, this time without the task manager message. I was able to dismiss the task manager message by pressing the search key somehow.

I have seen exactly that same message today. I thought I have been fairly careful about Malware. However, there was an update that was installed from marketplace today.
I wonder if it is possible to look at an update history.

Is the message window in your case appearing under the exact same circumstances as mine? Which ROM are you using? And also if its possible could you do an inventory of the all the apps installed on your phone, then perhaps we can pinpoint the source. Thanks for the reply.

[Q] Can I update the Firmware on Developer Unlocked Device Without Losing the Unlock?

I bought Samsung Omnia 7 which was developer unlocked about 6 months back, it came with Windows phone mango installed when I got it, recently I get a message when I connect it to Zune that there is a minor firmware update available for the device, I haven't installed the update because of the fear of losing my unlock on the phone.
I just want to know considering the fact that my device is developer unlocked, after the installation of new update on the device, will my unlock remain intact or I will be forced to unlock the device again?
I do not see much or any bugs on the device and I see no point in updating the firmware as well, but just want to know what would happen if I did, as I have zero knowledge on the whole thing.
Thanks
