[Q] Warrany?

Hey, if I upgraded my hd2 to android (flashed the NAND ROM) but now I realized that Android won't even run b/c of a problem I have had from before, and I want to send it back and get a new one...
So, i flashed back to the original WM version I had before, I went to HSPL and flashed to the 2.000 ROM instead of the hspl...
Is my warranty voided now? Will they know I did all this?
and if it is can, what about insurance on the phone they offer to everyone (I actually took it) that should cover the phone even if it is dropped in a lake, right?

You can just revert back to stock some times just by flashing an official ROM or just following a simple unrooting process just search for your particular phone, as long as you make sure you do that, they won't know that you did anything to it.

Thanks, that's great!
Now can any one tell me what all im supposed to do to put the phone back the way it was (the way the warranty people want to see it)?
I found a guide about the Diamond somewhere on this website [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537496], and also looked over some other guids, and I have some quick questions;
'stock ROM' is this the tmobile windows rom I had on before right?
The tutorial says when I flash the stock ROM that I should also have a new stock radio version, this is not the case with me I still have 2.15.50.40, can I download 'stock radio' from somewhere?
Also, what's the stock spl? How do I check that?
Sorry for all the newbie-ism in the questions;
Also sorry that it says warrany instead of warranty, something must be wrong with my keyboard.
Thanks for any answers

If your radio didn't change you can change it by flashing the original one just look here

Your stock ROM is wm 6.1, your stock spl is either 1.93 or 2.03 just check out here

[Need] Shipped ROM from Sensation Telstra Australia

Hi all
Just about to receive my shiny new sensation and am getting ready to start flashing.
Does anyone know where I can find the shipped ROM for this phone so I have it in case I need to send it back for warranty issues etc?
Not sure about versioning etc as I don't have my device yet

mate.. you should be able to create a backup yourself of your rom if no one else has done it... how else do you think everyone is able to get the stock recovery.. im not sure if there is thread here on xda (im sure someone will know it) on how to do it so i chucked in the top result from google
http://androidadvices.com/backup-restore-roms-android-phone/
edit: remember you will need to get a stock recovery.img (you can get this in the dev thread) to reflash once you have done the reflash of the original rom (as you would have used cwm to flash the original you need to make sure you get rid of cwm to bring him shiny new =]

What we are after is a RUU for the stock Telstra ROM, not a nandroid backup.

[Q] HTC Thunderbolt Stock Original ROM

Hello I've been experimenting with some custom roms on a HTC Thunderbolt. The friend that owns it said he had a backup stock original rom that came with the phone, but all of sudden does not have it anymore. I am wondering if there is a way I can get the original stock Froyo 2.2 ROM that came with the Thunderbolt. Or even better the stock OTA Gingerbread 2.3 update that came in last week. I've found some stock roms online, but they all turned out to be invalid. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Here is one stock rom that I found:
PG05IMG_Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.70.605.0_Radio_1.39.00.0627r_NV_8k_1.41_9K_1.64_release_200422_signed.zip
but all the downloads of this file turn out be to invalid.

do you want to unroot? or do you want a rooted stock rom?
if you want to stay rooted,flash one of these in recovery:
froyo 1.70.605.0
gingerbread 2.11.605.3
RUUs if you want to unroot:
froyo 1.70.605.0 (note this is a .exe file)
gingerbread 2.11.605.3 this is a pg05img(install in hboot)
i checked the last 2 downloads and they are working fine.

need help
Hey guys, I was trying to unroot my thunderbolt but jacked things up. I had it wipe all date, now will not boot Its still rooted. When i go into the reboot mood its by Revolutionary. Info it displays where it gives me options of fastboot, recover, factory reset, simlock, hboot usb and image crc is
Revolutionary
MECHA XD SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.O4.1002
MICROP-/
RADIO-1.49.00.0406v_1
eMMC-BOOT
Idk if that helps. It doesnt reboot or does a looping process. Just stays at the white htc screen and doesnt say anything, and is not the screen where it says htc quietly brilliant. When i go into recovery 4ext recovery touch is whats available, current rom:unknown. Im fairly new so i would greatly appreciate any help, I like this phone alot and would hate to use something else. I dont care if after everything is said and done its still rooted or not. I have my personal info still on my card and a backup on my computer so im safe on that and dont care if i lose everything on the phone.

Hey,
I wish I would have know you wanted an unrooted thunderbolt, I would have traded you. Currently looking for a way to root ICS with out a million step process.

[Q] Do I NEED RUU to revert VZW M8 to stock?

Hello, I've been using the site for years for guides to root and flash devices, but this M8 is my first VZW device. I'm getting all my ducks in a row before I mod it, but hit a snag researching reverting to stock if the need arises. When I had other devices, reverting to stock was mostly just flashing my nandroid backup. This VZW device is the first I've heard of RUU. I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727831 thoroughly and several others and could not find a solid answer. I would have posted in the thread, but I am a posting noob and am unable. If I have a nandroid backup of my stock ROM on Software number 1.55.605.2, do I still need to flash RUU to revert to stock? Thanks in advance for your answer, or "hey dumby, it's already on this thread." Either is appreciated.

If you restore your nandroid, you're back to a stock system but still have the custom recovery and - if you messed with those - different radio/hboot.
The RUU gets you back one more step: a fully stock system/hboot/radio/recovery (although that RUU you linked to is rooted, but that's easily fixed).
That's my understanding of it, but I'm also relatively new to the M8 - so take it for what it's worth

Boost Mobile HTC One SV, Trying to restore to stock

I can provide any information you need as long as it doesn't require me to actually boot up the android interface (I can only use fastboot and that's it) but I'll list my issue so far.
So I rooted my phone a good while back using The Ultimate Guide: S-Off, Recovery, Root, & Jelly Bean on Android Forums dot com I have the boost mobile american variant of the phone, not the k2_ul it's the k2_cl I do believe.
I recently tried to revert it back to stock since I don't really need it rooted anymore.
It ultimately resulted in me just contacting HTC directly because I couldn't find an actual stock rom to flash onto my phone anywhere.
(maybe I just wasn't looking in the right places, but I looked very thoroughly)
After a few messages back and forth with their technical group I ended up flashing an updated hboot they gave me for it, and then the stock rom they gave me always resulted in "INFOshift signature_size for header checking... FAILED (remote: 32 header error) finished. total time: 50.946s"
So at this point the phone was still booting up like normal, but I figured maybe I should just try to update it with the software update.
First update applied, phone still worked, another update prompt.
Second update applied, phone is bricked, and now I think since I flashed that hboot file it's removed cwmrecovery from my phone and I feel like I've played god with my poor phone.
I'm really sorry if this seems really vague, and I'm really sorry if this is the wrong place to put this.
And I'm sorry for not posting links and images but I can't since I'm new apparently.
I just really want to get this fixed, and if possible go back to a stock phone.

I used this to get me back to stock JB 4.1.2 on Boostmobile, I was on JB 4.2.2 the latest update , go to One SV General and look for this post by a guy named Russell it's called [almostRUU][K2_CL]&[How To Update After Moonshine S-Off] , I was unlocked and S-OFF to get it to work, sorry on link for you, read it carefully and download the files and put on PC, and if it don't help then try messaging him.

I'll check it out, appreciate the info.

Okay so I originally had a legit rom from htc themselves, but flashboot kept giving me the error I posted in my original post, after following that guide recommended, I couldn't get twrp to flash over, but I did read ahead and just put the rom the htc people gave me on my sd card, then I boot into bootloader and viola, it updated itself to the latest version, it's now stock as far as I know.
I know it isn't rooted, I relocked bootloader before even updating it, so I'm thinking my problems are over.
Even if it isn't at least the phone is usable again.

Glad your problem is solved....
