[Q] How to unroot to stock/factory rom - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I have a European (Dutch) HTC Desire Z and I want to get back to stock rom en radio etc. I have my S-OFF my device with "Gfree". Is it safe for me to go back to a stock rom and radio? And does someone know which rom and radio I must use. Hope someone can help, it's NOT the TMOUS version which I own.
The reason why I want to go back to stock is my touch screen is not responding at some points and I need to send it to HTC. Hope someone can help me. Thnx

not sure about dutch version but theres a few guides to go back stock in the dev section. the guides are easy to follow.

Guys, thx for the advice.
But with the HTC desire Z screen type you cant do a screen calibration right? If so, could you point me the way how to do this?
The guides on the internet are all for the G2 of T-mobile, so also the rom's are for T-mobile.
Hoping to see more reactions

Yes, if you do not want to root, you will need to go down the Goldcard method and then flash the HTC Stock Rom
Otherwise, go down the root option (you will still need a Goldcard) and flash any custom rom.
Just do a search for Goldcard in these forums and you will see how to do it, then just find the stock RUU and run it.
Yes.
You can root your Desire and then there are loads of ROMS that you can pick from to put on your phone.
I tried to post a little guide for you but I couldn't post links to other websites so ust google create Goldcard, then go to Modaco and download the generic Desire rom and install
Ok guys thanks for the advise I will trying today creating gold card.
Do I need backup o2 software to memory card?

You can't. If you need to go back to original software you can unroot the device. Details can be found on modaco.

I want to reinstall froyo help please

I want to install froyo from HTC on my desire as I've a few bugs which a hard reset hasn't sorted Is it available for download and do you just run the ruu or is it a memory card install ?
I am on unlocked unbranded UK desire
I've only got my handset as I'm on holiday and don't return back till tomorrow so can't search (wanna sort my handset asap after I get home hence info request)
Cheers in advance

Have a look at the second post in the sticky section of the ROM development forum. Be aware that afaik the official rom will upgrade your hboot which will not allow you root access. I don't know where but there is an official update with the hboot removed somewhere. If you can live without sense I recommend adamg opendesire rom.

Looking for HTC Desire US ROM

Hi,
As i posted earlier that whatever SMS that i receive it lags 4 hours. Currently I am using SMSFix to tackle this issue but this thing is bothering me that why to install a special app for that. it gives me problem if i get text messages when this service is not running.
SO, I thought may be the issue is because my HTC Desire is EU Unlocked. Just want to give a try i am trying to search for HTC Desire US specific ROM. I have searched online, but could not fiind one .. Please refer me to one.
- I am not looking for any CUSTOM ROM.
- I have not ROOTED by device yet. Still waiting someone to anwer my question on other thread to root.
have you downloaded the latest unrevoked 3.21 that seems to have worked for me. its no longer a zipped folder, its now a complete MSI app
Yes, I have already tried that and it is not working for me. I have already posted that problem in Q and A section

Guyz, PLEASE HELP ME PLEASE
i have HTC WILDFIRE WITH HBOOT 1.01.0002 UNBRANDED
i want to ROOT my wildfire
it is not of any brand, if i neeed to downgrade it, then tell me how
m not a noob in rooting
i have rooted many cell like htc evo 3d,htc wildfire,htc sensation,htc inspire,xperia x8 and many more
so please give me a guide which can downgrade my hboot 1.01.0002
MY PHONE IS NOT WITH ANY BRAND (UNBRANDED)
Seriously, you're not a noob so use the search function.........
Or would you rather me come round your house and downgrade/root the phone for you instead, might be easier.
Edit: took me all of 15 seconds to find this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145035

i used that search button 100 times but all says if u want to downgrade a carrier branded wildfire but my phone is not carrier branded
moreover making goldcards are for carrier phones (i dont know much about goldcards)
so i want an unbranded downgrade
(if u can come to my home it will be gr8 )
lol..........
I'm pretty sure the hboot isn't branded in any way, only the ROM and possibly the splash screen which you will wipe anyway. Those 2 guides should be fine however usaf's is more recent and if you have any questions you'll most likely get an answer quicker in that one.

Plz help....first post and need advice plz

Hello, firstly just wanted to say thanks to you all for posting your helpful info on the website, it really does help!!!
But unfortunately im stuck and could use some help/advice/tutorial please.
I have a HTC One V that is bought from Carphone Warehouse UK, and isnt sim locked.
I rooted, unlocked the bootloader, and then put on stock Vanilla ICS, although in the process i was at a point where the phone was sticking on the HTC screen.
Eventually i got it to go past that and now i have Vanilla ICS on there (I THINK!!)
But my problem now is i cannot use three finger swipe to pair to my Media Link HD, or even pair to it at all
And i use my media link a lot.
Basically i want one of 3 things really, and im hoping someone can help me out
1) Stay on Vanilla ICS and get my phone paired to my Media Link HD
2) Get another ROM that doesnt have HTC Sense (which was why i put Vanilla ICS on the handset) but will still pair up to my Media Link HD
3) Revert back to stock rom
Oh, i also used CID Getter to get this info from the handset, although i dont know what it means ive just read somewhere its useful:
20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.18_M
And my last thing, if this is in the wrong place i apologize in advance, if you could point me in the right direction
Thanks
James

This goes in Q&A, but to answer your question media link is a Sense feature. You would need to be on a stock rom to use it.

Look for my signature to return to stock.
Also if you vant Vanilla, you can install Apex or Nova launcher into the stock ROM. Not the same, but almost.
From the line you inserted (baseband version)I think your device is a WWE europe at the version of 2.08.401.2, but CID will be better.
For the ruu go to development and search for the stock roms thread (link here).
