[GUIDE] How To Unroot And Then Reroot With 4.24.651.1

You Must Be Rooted With S-OFF To Do This!
Seeing how there is no way to root 4.24 yet, I thought I would throw a little something together in case anyone needs to unroot before taking their phone into Sprint. This will return your phone to stock with S-ON while leaving a backdoor to reroot with. I have tested this as best I can without actually upgrading my hBoot (I want to keep the eng hboot), but there are no guarantees you won't run into issues. You also must flash the modified PC36IMG before setting S-ON in order for this to work.
While it would be trivial to create a script to automate this process, I wanted to make sure you know exactly what this does so it is easier to re-root. Plus there's no fun in having a script do all the work.
I've included all the files needed to use ADB and Fastboot on Windows, Linux and Macs. They have been renamed to match the operating system (eg. ADB for Windows is adbw, fastboot for Linux is fastbootl) and you may need to set the correct permissions in order to use them.
You will need:
Unrevoked Forever - The latest version of Unrevoked's S-OFF and S-ON tools
E4GUnroot.zip - The modified 4.24.651.1 PC36IMG zip and an unpacked copy of Amon RA's 1.8 recovery
Basic knowledge about ADB and Fastboot
Plenty of Battery Life
A little common sense

How To Unroot:
Make a Nandroid with the Boot, System and Data partitions along with your .android folder.
Make sure you have Radio S-OFF and not S-OFF from the ENG hBoot. If your bootloader shows SHIP S-OFF you should be good, if it shows ENG S-OFF then you will want to run Unrevoked Forever to make sure S-OFF is set from the radio.
Use ADB to reboot into RUU mode.
Code:
adb reboot oem-78
Once in RUU mode flash the PC36IMG. Be very careful that you do not interrupt it, doing so can easily result in the permanent bricking of your phone.
Code:
fastboot flash zip PC36IMG_4.24.651.1_Rootable.zip
Watch the output and make sure it completes correctly. If you get an error saying something about "remote 90: hboot pre-update" flash it again.
When it's finished flashing reboot and make your way into the Recovery.
Code:
fastboot reboot
--or--
fastboot reboot-bootloader
The recovery may show a green arrow for a few moments, wait for it to turn into the Red Triangle with an Exclamation Mark inside of it. Then push Amon RA's recovery to the phone and bring up the UI.
Code:
adb push amon_ra_1.8-mod /
adb shell "busybox --install /sbin"
adb shell "nohup /sbin/recovery &"
Now that the Recovery is up, use it to flash Unrevoked's S-ON tool.
You are now fully unrooted with S-ON! After you remove your SD card there will be nothing on your phone to show it was rooted.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How To Root Again:
Reboot into the Recovery and bring up Amon RA's recovery.
Run Unrevoked's S-OFF tool to unlock the NAND.
Flash your Recovery of choice and use it to restore your Nandroid
And that's it! You should be good to go again.

I won't have to use this method, being rooted already, but will definitely help a lot of people. Also VERY clear, do good job man.

Agreed, great and useful guide.

Good job and very educated post.

Just figured it may come in handy to someone, I had to unroot mine a few times to take it in to Sprint and I always did something similar to this to make it easier to reroot. If you wanted too you could even restore your data partition from a nandroid and remove all the root apps, that way your phone is still how you like it just unrooted for the time being.

Thank you sir. Very informative and useful post..

I have a question about this since it seems what your describing may help me. Since I got my E3d I have been playing around with my e4g and I upgraded mt hboot not realizing it would turn s-on. I know I'm still rooted since i have flashed at least 3 custom roms since then. I am on cm7.3 currently. For my case would using the unrevoked s-on/s-off tool to turn s-off work?

Great job here, hope I never have to use this though but should help many that need to take in their phone for service.

Try using unrevoked forever from the recovery. If your radio is updated it may not let you do it but it's worth a try

I've been with my Evo since the beginning so I have no issues, but a friend of mine just bought the Evo. Unfortunately, his came with gingerbread with 4.24.651. Since his is not rooted to begin with, we can't unroot and reroot, so is it safe to assume that this method will not work? If so, are there any known methods to root? thanks in advance....

Please search....
There was no reason for you to root without first reading everything. Also there was no reason to root if your not good with phones or computers....just sayin. Please search.
I got your 10 char right here

Wow man best advice is the one given above. I searched for weeks for all issues before I tempted to root. Then days for the issues on custom ROMs. As well as radios. I dont bother with anything else but those. I would say get the rooted ATT ROM (PD98IMG) file, pull battery out of phone then put back, then boot into bootloader by holding volume down and power button at same time. If phone goes to bootloader it will recognize the PD98IMG zip and load it. it will ask if you want to install, just hit volume up for yes and it will do its thing. I couldn't find the page for the ROM so I loaded mine to megaupload it includes the radio -26.10.04.03_M. If you find it in Development Section dont forget to THANK the developer, I TAKE NO CREDIT FO IT. Just place zip file in root of phone micro sd card (not in a folder). (I always use the gold card I made to root the phone). You may have to take card out of phone and use adapter to place zip in itthen put back into phone. AS ALWAYS ON HERE FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK.
AGAIN AS ADVICED ABOVE " RESEARCH" before anything.

PD98IMG is not a ROM, it's a radio file. Incorrectly telling him to flash this may brick his phone. Be sure you know what you're talking about before you post help.

He is talking about the s-on stock method. And yes he could do this and then try the hack kit. Then boot into recovery and flash cm7. Maybe it was a bad flash. But yes he should search, for the above info, but remember this is q/a. We were all noobs, and still have lots to learn.

Just a fyi...a PD98ING file is not always a radio file. Naming a file that's tells hboot to flash that file.
Splash screen downloads are named that as well. But back to what I said before. Please search.

Dude the PD98 zip file I put up is Pooles rooted ATT ROM with the .03 Radio. I know what I uploaded on here. So when I put something on here I know what Im putting up. I would not tell someone to flash something I dont know what it is. So please as adviced here SEARCH-SEARCH-SEARCH as I did.

Have you updated to the latest firmware? Whenever there's a new base, I just flash the accompanying firmware before superwiping and flashing Rom. Never had a problem booting up.

Which rom did you have before? You need the 3.32 firmware from Mike's thread. Place the PG58IMG on sd card and flash from bootloader. Delete it before superwiping and flashing 6.5

Dude I wouldn't mess with a sister's phone if she doesn't know how to fix tech problems. You're probably gonna end up with an angry sister at some point. I don't have sister's but I don't touch my wife's phone unless I am 20000% sure I won't F' it up.

I know of a guy around here (which who I will not name, and no, that's not me ) who maintains 2 successful ROMs and he is as old as you so if he can do something that requires much more than the basic knowledge.

Long story short phone worked fine , the I couldn't get it to get past boot screen....boots loops I think!?!?!? To cut to the chase. I now can only access twrp. It will not let me reboot because it say I have no os. I did do a tiatium backup but can only see those files on my pc when I mount through twrp. Also if it helps looks like it is in s-on.

If you has ICS, the radio should be 11.22 or something close to that.

i tried to use ruu to flash PJ83IMG, but at the upgrade selection, it says my img version is 1.94, and the upgraded one is 1.73(or 1.83, i forgot)
i clicked upgrade anyway. i didn't work.
also i tried the ARUWIZARD, it didn't work as well.
plz help me , i just want to get this phone back to working.
any help would be appreciated.
thx for reading
forgot to say that i did relock it.

DId you use SuperCID? you should just try different ruu until one of them works. Did you try to get into recovery aka holding down the vol button when you power on?

i dont know what is SuperCID so i guess i didn't use it.
recovery is the only thing that i can get into right now.
i tried factory reset. didn't work.
im quite new to android so i dont know too many things.
thx for reading and replying.

Well if you didnt that means you can only use an ruu for the image you currently have or any ruu after after that. im not to familiar with rogers ruu version numbers but like i said equal or great. I would go into recovery and and go into fastboot and try the ruu then. that should do the trick and you still need to be relocked but you said you did that already so good luck!

yeah it seems like you did take all steps. with changing your CID im not really sure what to do. illl be back if i find anything but right now im stuck. sorry man.

Yeah I was just looking around and I noticed there but only one ruu. this is a link to the ruu ROGER RUU. its an exe so basically hold the vol down button while you turn the power on. you should have a screen that says "fastboot", recovery and so on. select fastboot and connect to your computer. when it finishes installing the drivers and the phone says fastboot usb in red then run the ruu.
actually its not an exe. sorry i need to look it up myself

yeah, that is not an exe file. it's a zip file that should replace the rom.zip when u do the ruu (according to the posts online).
that's what i did. the thing is that when i did the ruu thing, my phone version is greater then the one u can find online. so it's not working this way. or maybe im not doing it right.
this phone is killing me right now.
thank u.

no one seems to have a good solution to this???

i just solved it.
it's quiet simple actually.
for ppl who may have the same problem as i did , this is what u need to do :
flash recovery, then go in to recovery mode, wipe everything, except the external storage, then install a new rom
simple...
yea , first of all , unlock ur device.
thx/.

Should change the title of post from [Q] to [solved] so that people know your all set and others that may find the info useful.
