so do you want to go back to stock rom unrooted? or stock rom which is rooted?
To find out your ROM version go to settings > about phone > software information.
Post the info that you find there please. This is the first step.

sounds like you are in the same boat i was in. i s-offed, rooted, and flashed roms, then wished i could go back to stock.
There is a way to do this but if u are new to all this then it's difficult. What i would recommend it staying s-off and just flashing back the stock rom which can be found here https://rapidshare.com/#!download|74...CDBD275E3244F1
As i came to realise you are a LOT better off having s-offed, and you will come to see that the custom roms here are an awful lot better than what comes with the phone. Just give it time.
if you still want to s-on and return completely to stock, post back and i will point u in the right direction

I'd say there is no reason to panic at this point. The symptoms you described seem minor and surely it's possible to fix everything.

Yea that's what I thought too, just give it time. I'd also recommend to stay s-off and possibly you might even want to go back to stock rom (where you've been originally) but to keep root access. I think you might be glad in the future. You can always go to complete stock later.

if u follow the guide i just gave you this will remove revolutionary from hboot menu and return you to completely to stock.
basically the HBOOT revolutionary has installed on your phone is locked against updating so you need to push the ENG HBOOT S-OFF via adb, then you can just flash the stock RUU which will downgrade HBOOT back to stock and remove clockworkmod recovery. everything will be exactly as it was before you touched it

Hi...
I want to delete some apps like stocks...and i know i need to be rooted for it...
But when i trien temp-root with free3vo...deleted some apps and they were never deleted...
I dont want to perma root cz i think then i wont be able to get updates from htc...
I dont want anything more then rooting cz i love sense and thats why i actually bought sensation...
But now my phone is getting slower and i think deleting stock apps will solve it...
Is there anything just like one click root or i have to wait for unlock bootloader...
And i dont even have drivers for my sensation on my pc...so if someone can provide it...ill so thankful...its not downloading from htc site.
Thanks..
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App
Temp root with fr3vo will not let you permanently delete apps. They will just return upon reboot because they weren't really deleted in the first place. Trust me when I say that htc is not rushing to get updates out to us. Or any of their phones for that matter. People are on their Facebook page everyday pleading for updates. Devs are way more eager so your best bet would be to flash a custom rom because then you are guaranteed an update to the newest android. You can't root without unlocking your bootloader. You can do this at revolutionary.io. The instructions are at the top of the development thread. Along with the drivers. Just because you root doesn't mean that you can't have sense. We actually don't have a real "no-sense" aosp rom yet. Go ahead. Free your phone from htc's grip. Then you can delete at your heart's will.
Okk...so you mean i would have to s-off i think...and which is the best custom rom according to you with sense...and can i revert back to stock rom if i want??
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App
Yes s-off is the best option. The best you can do is do some research. Read the 1st post of the rom's thread and find out which suits you best.
Thanks...
But will i be able to revert back to original??

Once you have cwm you can backup your original rom. If for some reason you want back to original rom, you can restore it with cwm.
Thanks...but as i am a nood...
I tried s-off with revolutionary but it showed me sofe error communication with phone is intrrepted unepectdly try again later...so i couldnt s-off n cant even find some help on it..
So i thought the other way...first flashing the 1.45 on my phone then getting bootloader unlocked with the htcdev...

New to Android here. Does CWM backup the original ROM in it's "pure" state, i.e. factory fresh? Or does it backup the ROM based on your phone's current state.
I'm coming from an iPhone, where the iOS files were easily accessible and I never made back-ups. I have so many questions about Android modding. This forum is filled with information, but has my head spinning.

I would surmise that its a backup of the phones current state. I was still s-offed after I restored my phone to my stock backup after a botched adb push.
Take it a day at a time, took me about a week to get up to speed on this thing. Learning how to use adb and knowing a few basic commands will make your life easier.
Sent from my HTC Sensation
It is indeed a backup of the current state. You will be s-off as long as you don't take an update or change your bootloader. Your bootloader is not included in a backup as it is not necessary.
Ok So back in the day I used the ace hack kit so I was happily on froyo me specs are:
Android Version 2.2.1
Kernel Version 2.6.32.21-g3c08447
Software Number Inspired DHD AFR003
so now as I remember I did the s-off rooted and unlocked but need to go back to stock firmware (IDK just want it) so att made the update to gingerbread so my question is:
If I update like the way the htc page tells me to will it brick my phone ?
and if not what do I have to do?
ive just been out of it and im a little back behind but I find posts with other things than this thanks in advance guys!

It has all the instructions and tools you need to return to stock.
but I cant just execute the htc update and what would happen my main concern is messing up my phone by just updating to the official Gingerbread I am on still on the same specs
Yes you can just flash the gingerbread ruu. You will be stock but still have soff which is fine unless you were going to do some kind of warranty claim then I would suggest gong son aswell

Do you mean the OTA update, or the RUU from HTC's website? If the former, then no, you can't unless you are running a rock-stock froyo ROM (it will abort before doing anything). If the latter, then yes, you can run it, but it will wipe everything.

Flashing ghe htc OTA update while you are S-Off will not work. Found this out the hard way back when I first started messing with phones
You can un root your phone and put S-On and update it to gingerbread but I don't think you'll be able to root it as I believe the hack kit requires you to downgrade firmware anyway.
Best bet is to just flash a gingerbread rom. If your trying to keep sense I would suggest the rom virtuous unity.
Has sense 3.0 with a load of new features and is gingerbread I believe.
Either way, best of luck. Hope this helps

Hey guys; im hoping you guys can provide some advise for a noob that recently got into the scene with flashing my sensation...im currently running ARHD 3.6.8 and while it's great, I have issues sometimes that the only way for the phone to to start working again is to take the battery out. it happens randomly or also when trying to access the internet it will just sit there and load. I haven't tried sense 3.5 yet and i see there's alot of beta kernels out there as well. At this time, what's the most complete/stable ROM or kernel released? I've done some research and as I mentioned earlier, this is my 1st ROM flashed so I want some inputs from those with more experience and/or have tried most of the ROMs out there.
I'm willing to try anything really, but wife get pissed" when I'm reading xda dev all the time, specially on the weekends, haha
Any inputs are greatly appreciated. Also, Im tmobile US and want to stay stock as much as possible but im down with trying new things! Thanks

Hello guys im also a noob for HTC, my previous phone is galaxy w xD pretty standard, i got my new sensation today so whats the most stable rom ?? Thx
dude u should really go for ARHD 6.4.0 or the newer version that has sense 3.6 that had been released today... well i have been using the 6.4.0 for 2 days but still it is not giving me any problems... i had used arhd 6.0.3 for almost a month and it was very stable... As for me, as long as you get it right it is always the newer the better unless stated by the developer.. So if you are planning to go for ARHD 6.x.x just follow the steps correctly and you will be save and you will definitely love your phone...

OK basically, when you are looking at roms on their OFFICIAL XDA page it should say the firmware required, just download it from the link that they will most probably have provided for you, put it on the root of your sdcard and then boot into hboot and follow the instructions ( pull out battery, reinsert and then hold down the volume down button and the power button). Usually you will only have to flash firmware files for ics roms but if you want to go back to stock ( for warranty issues or if you just want to for the lulz) then you should ALWAYS change your hboot back to the ones supported by revolutionary.io or else you will end up ***ked like i currently am with no solution. To change the hboot just flash an old firmware file or run a RUU file, search it up on google and you are SuperCid so you can use any.
Okey thanks alot man!!! So to get back i just donwload the old frimware??

I would strongly recomment you to read, re-read and search (google or XDA) if you have questions.
Anyway the starting place is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
o S-OFF allows you to install stuff that you need by bypassing phone security.
o Recovery (e.g. ClockworkMod a.k.a CWM) allows you to install ROMs. It also allows you to do a complete (well almost) phone backup and recovery of the phone. So it's easy to get back to a prior version, Nandroid backup/recovery.
o SU gives you admin rights on the phone.
o SuperCID alows you to install any county's /carrier's ROM. e.g. debrand the phone from the shipped ROM.
There are a myriad of ROMs in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1112
Have a look at the number of replies / number of times they've been viewed to get some idea about the popularity.
You'll need to make a couple of decisions:
1: AOSP or Sense based ROMs. The stock one is Sense, pure Google Android is AOSP, they each have a different look and feel.
2: GB (Gingerbread) or ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich). ICS is the latest BUT BUT BUT needs additional steps to be performed to update the phone's firmware. I WOULD strongly suggest starting out with a GB ROM first as there is less likely to go wrong.

OK getting the thread back on track.
Did the post after you original one answer the your question.
If not, get the phone S-OFF'd and SuperCID then just install an appropriate RUU, then you'd get the OTA.
EDIT: or just reinstall the RUU for your county/carrier
Most people are going away from shipped ROMs here and trying different ROMs with their good and bad things.
So you mean to say that we can get HTC update with s-off and original ruu only......and u mean no need to do s-on also ????

Look, someone posted a potential solution. Someone else asked a different question (hijacked thread) which was answered.
Please explain the current situation and the attemps you've tried that have failed.
HBOOT, Recovery, Radio, ...... That info is crutial. Also what you are attempting to achieve .
i had s-off and rooted and now i have succesfully s-on and unrooted my device and now i am on official stock ruu...........my question is that can i update my phone via ota updates from htc???
I think OP is trying to ask if flashing an Asian RUU and going to S-ON will turn his T-Mobile Sensation 4G into a proper Asian handset (and therefore get OTA updates that official Asian handsets do).
I'm not sure if it would (maybe there's an IMEI check?), but I would change my CID to be what it should be for that RUU (and not leave it at supercid).
i have supercid my phone and i remain on t-mobile ruu then will i get official update
I'm actually quite curios to know the answer, if I just s-off my phone will I be receiving updates from HTC, I got the T-mobile phone and I live in the middle east, my phone does not read arabic, I'd ultimately like to install a middle east rom , but then will the official updates stop?
I don't think anyone will know until the OTA drops. My hunch is that having the right RUU and CID would mean you get the OTAs. Having supercid will probably not work, since that's essentially what identifies your region.
But putting my XDA hat on, why would you want an OTA anyway when we have legendary chefs here to get you hooked up with good roms?
btw, I tried out one of the InsertCoin ICS roms, and the Facebook app could read Arabic and Urdu properly (right-to-left with joined letters). I didn't check the browser, but it probably would have worked as well. (In GB, you'd have to patch the system libraries to get proper letter joining)
I guess you wouldn't, I just read some people commenting about having some bugs in their custom roms, so I just automatically assumed that the stock roms are at least stable. the other reason is that I'm afraid to break something
I just went through this, I had s-off with super cid and had the stock HTC Europe RUU flashed on my phone.
The phone detected an OTA update was available (an old one that was released after the RUU), but when I tried to download it, it just timed out. I reset my CID to HTC__001 and then it downloaded the update OK.
i bricked my phone while doing s-on
i know its a true brick as nothing is happining not even the charge light
can u tell me that "would this have affected my motherboard or not"????
Okay, can someone kinda fill me in on developmental status for rooting the Mytouch 4g Slide. I would like to root mine. I did some researching for a little while and is kinda lost. I haven't rooted a phone for a couple years now.

Actually both. Where do I begin?
The unlockr has the revolutionary method on there. That's how most of us did it. Make sure all the links work before u use it.
Once u follow through with that, use rom manager to update to the latest clockwork mod.
Once u get rooted make a backup of ur stock rooted rom and start flashing whatever u want
Use undeadk9's rubix ics 5.2 from page 180 with the messaging fix zip in the op page 1
Follow the directions I posted on page 148
=) that's the best, fastest, and most stable rom atm. But there's a few real ics roms out there if u wanna play around with them.

If your HBOOT version is 1.45.0013 (get into HBOOT by turning off fast boot in settings, turning off your phone, and then holding volume down and power), you won't be able to get perma-root until HTC fixes their bootunlocker or until someone else devises a method to get S-OFF.

If your HBOOT version is 1.45.0013 (get into HBOOT by turning off fast boot in settings, turning off your phone, and then holding volume down and power), you won't be able to get perma-root until HTC fixes their bootunlocker or until someone else devises a method to get S-OFF.

We have discovered that if your machine is S-OFF you can flash any version hboot you want. I swap back and forth between all 4 consistently.

They got you covered, just run revolutionary and S-OFF the device, then you can do anything you want after that.
You will start with CWM 4.0.0.8 if you choose to install during the Rev process, if not then you will be S-OFF with stock recovery.

Replacing Stock Recovery: Clockworkmod
If you have S-OFF but stock recovery, the easiest method is to:
1 - Follow the instructions in This Thread to get temp root.
2 - Without rebooting, add your market account to the device.
3 - Install ROM Manager from the market.
4 - Flash Clockworkmod through ROM Manager.
5 - What you do next is up to you (but a clockworkmod backup isn't a bad idea.)

...which is what others have mentioned above.
Any questions just ask, plenty of us floating around willing to help.
Okay, I used Revolutionary to S-OFF my device. It gave me the option to install clockworkmod recovery. I typed in yes but my recovery still looks the same as stock. All it says at the top is Revolutionary~ and all the other information.
...that is your hboot menu.
Hit volume down to select recovery in the list, then press power to accept - now you will see your recovery.

This still means that those of us with S-ON and the newer HBOOT are still stuck then?

Need help with rooting MT4GS!
I have noticed that this thread looks to be the lastest work on rooting a MyTouch 4G Slide. I have the HBOOT 1.45.0013 and I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to get either the HBOOT downgraded or Revolutionary to work with it. Any help with links to this fix will be appreciated.
