Hi..
I decided to make an "EASY TO USE" unroot guide for the HTC Legend..
Here goes..
First..
If you want to unroot to software version 1.31
... download this file and put it in the root of your SD-card..
- This version can easily be rooted again..
If you want to unroot to software version 2.03
... download this file and put it in the root of your SD-card..
- This version will need a downgrade in order to root phone again..
When the wanted file is on your SD-card turn OFF your phone..
EDIT: *** NB: Reported in that this might not work if SD-card is partitioned with ext-partition. If not working try to use a fat32-only ***
Turn the phone ON while holding VOLUME DOWN..
The phone will detect the LEGEIMG.zip file on the SD-card and
ask you to upgrade..
Select YES.. And wait...
This should do the trick....
Nice and simple. Good work m8.
Good guide. Straight to the point. Keep up the good work.
Is there any way to. Convert the rom. Zip with the ruu to legeimg. Zip
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
Yep... extract ROM.zip from RUU and rename it to LEGEIMG.zip.
Hello,
I'm not familiar yet with rooting.
When this procedure is done, will I have a working Legend device ?
Which rom will it be running ?
How could I "upload" CyanogenMod to this rooted legend ?
I've search the web, but I do not get everything yet...
Thank you for your hep !
Yannick
Thanks for the guide, but it doesn't work for me.
"No image or wrong name!" message appears.
I've tried your first link and my own rom.zip renamed to LEGEIMG.zip .

Something had gone wrong, wipe wasn't working and it kept rebooting so I was forced to... once CM 6.1 Stable releases, I'll root it again.

The point is if you have to return it under warranty.
Can someone help me with this? I keep getting an error. I can't flash the LEGEIMG.zip by reboot & vol dn+power nor by clockwork. Tried downloading the file twice, tried my extracted rom.zip and it just doesn't work.
What else can I do?
Can you post md5 of this zip?
What I did was put the file in the root of the SD Card...
Switch off the Legend and switch it on while having the Volume down button pressed. It flashes automatically.

You honestly believe that there are psychics reading these forums?
What error? Does this error have a name? Does it have a description? Or does it just say:
ERROR
...over the entire screen?
Dammit guys, learn to post some useful information!!! If it ain't working, there's definitely a reason don't you think???
Nice work mate, i gott bored, so i tested your guide, worked like a charm
now it's, back to rooting the phone again

Sorry, I wrote about it on the previous page. This message was kind of stupid bump.
Love you too.
It says 'error' tho, before error messages, so you're right. In green tho.
Something like 'Wrong image!', 'Can't find image'. All about LEGEIMG.zip . It dissapears fast.

One of two problems..
1) You did not put the download in the ROOT of your sd- card or
2) you have renamed the file..
One of these things are causing the error..
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
I'm 100% sure I haven't renamed the file and it's in the root (astro file manager shows it in /mnt/sdcard). If ROOT means sdcard top folder then there it is.
edit: clockwork says "Can't open /sdcard/LEGEIMG.zip (bad)". Hence the request for md5 - but I doubt triple download would cause some inconsistency in file.
I got CID incorect error, what does it mean?

Can radios be flashed with UF at anytime now with an update.zip?
Also where is a zip file for the 2.15 radio or is there anyone willing to share? It's not the same as the evo's is it?
Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk
To flash:
1. Place PB31IMG.zip to root of SD card
2. Power down phone
3. Press volume down and power at same time
4. It will ask to update...press volume UP for yes
5. It will ask for reboot...press volume UP for yes
Once done...enjoy.

i thought with S-OFF, we can flash radio with CWM? also, do i just rename the radio OTA to PB31IMG(.zip)?
with s-off, i can flash the radio anytime i want with any rom i want? without going back to the unroot stock rom?

It already saves it as PB31IMG.zip....so just move it to root and go on with process.
That's for the splash and does not update radio. I've installed that and the update.zip and still have 2.05

fastboot

clear storage
simlock
after 2 seconds or so it does this:
sd checking...
loading...pb31diag.zip

Make sure the sdcard is formatted as fat32 and that the zip name is exactly "PB32IMG.zip", exact casing and make sure also that its not .zip.zip
OK i just reformatted the sd card to FAT32 and the file i downloaded was PB31IMG, i don't have an extra .zip, that's common mistake for me to do so it was first thing to check. ok so that fixed it. i must not have had it formatted correctly, its whatever it was stock
edit: mrozzeh and the rest of the unrevoked team, i would like to say thank you, and thanks for the personal help too.

Anytime. (10 characters blah)
Hold the optical pad and the power button...not the vol down key and give it a shot
Radio update isn't working for me. Saved PB31IMG.zip to the root of my FAT32formatted SD card, rebooted, it found the PB31IMG.zip file, went though the loading process, got the point where it said "checking" and then went back to the menu without loading the update. I've downloaded the radio update twice with the same results. I currently have the 2.05.00.06.11 radio but have not yet installed s -off. Do I need to do that first?
Any other suggestions?
EDIT: Nevermind, I installed the unrevoked forever s -off patch and the radio update seems to be installing now.
EDIT 2: Radio update updates kernal to .32 correct?
Question for anybody that can answer this can we flash any rom from another phone and it will work with the Incredible after we done this to our phone. Thanks.

What just happened to Shadowmite's Unrevoked Forever post in Development. It disappeared?
So yesterday I finally found some time to root Gingerbread on my Nexus One. We're moving to Germany from the U.S. in a month and the last couple of weeks I just didn't have any time to get it done. I had my N1 rooted when I was on Froyo and was desperate to root it again on GB.
Last night I set a couple of hours aside to familiarize myself with the GingerBreak exploit and ended up with a rooted N1 and Gingerbread 2.3.3
Here's the funny part... not 30 minutes after rooting I get an OTA notification to update to 2.3.4. Go figure!
Can anyone confirm that 2.3.4 will break root on the N1? If so, will the GingerBreak exploit still work to root GB again?
What would be the preferred/easiest method to upgrade to 2.3.4 and retain root?
2.3.4 will break root. just use the gingerbreak app again and youll be rooted
I figured it would break root but just needed some confirmation!
I didn't actually use the .apk but ran the exploit myself. I think this time around I may just use the .apk though.
Is it confirmed that the app will root 2.3.4?
Just boot into recovery, flash the update as file from SD, and then flash the su zip...

This. Not sure why people are so confused like this. This has been the process since the Nexus One launched.

This morning i have rooted my nexus one and root died.

All right, let me recap so I'm not missing anything.
1. I download the 2.3.4 update from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061270, rename it update.zip and place it in the root of my SD
2. Then I download the su zip from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828 and also place it in the root of my SD
3. Then I reboot into Clockwork and apply the update.zip
4. Once that's done I DO NOT reboot and apply the su zip
Is that it or am I missing something?
Don't apply it as an update, because your phone will reboot once it's done. If you reboot, you will lose your custom recovery. Use the "install zip from SD" option...
I tried to apply the update as zip from sd card and I got the following error, which seems to have something to do with google books
apply_patch_check(''/system/app/BooksPhone.apk'',numbers and letters
E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip (status 7)
Installation aborted.
Any ideas? Maybe it is because I had integrate Books into ROM? Any solutions?
Thanks a lot.

this is only for those who havent flashed the un-edited update i guess. I flashed the original update too soon and it removed the root access on my wifes N1. I tried flashing the su last night it didnt work, really frustrating... ahihihihi
I was thinking if I flash the backup on 2.3.3 will that bring back the root access? or at least I can already use Gingerbreak then? ty

To do what? To root? This procedure is to, in this case, update to 2.3.4 from 2.3.3 without loosing root.
Now I have an additional question. I wasn't able to use the original update file from Google, presumably because I had deleted the Google Books app. I kept getting the above-mentioned error.
Just out of curiosity, how could I get Google Books back so the update would run? Just placing it in /system/app didn't seem to work.
Not that it really matters, I used the modified update file that danger-rat posted, but for the future I would like to know how I can avoid this error.

Hi, after test for some times, i made the flashable root package for 2.3.4 (That the device has flash the leaked HKTW 2.3.4 and unlocked the device)
NOTE:
Unlocked Atrix 4G with HKTW 2.3.4
Please flash the CWM recovery first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1138541
You should have a external sd card in your device, because the recovery cann't recognize the internal card

This is because you didn't read my post carefully. You should have a EXTERNAL SDCARD in your device first! Because the recovery cann't mount the internal sdcard.

There is another way to check whether the root of your device work or not.
Run cmd in Windows or terminal in Linux.
execute the following cmd:
Code:
adb shell
su -
After you input the "su -" cmd, you should have a dialog to allow root access in your device. I.e, the root works. Otherwise, it doesn't work.
BTW, does your device unlocked and flash the HKTW android 2.3.4 rom?

TOO bad, the zip file should be flashed as the normal way to flash rom.
GOTO recovery then choose this zip file to flash.
BTW, you should copy the zip file to the external sdcard first!

The easiest way to update to honeycomb is to go to the xda wiki, head to the Dell Streak 7 section, find the appropriate update package, download it, rename it to "update.pkg" and place it on your sd card.
Then reboot your tablet, pressing Volume Up and Power, and selection option 2 which is to install a package and let it do its work.
Ok I downloaded the latest version renamed it update.pkg when I rebooted and tried to click on update from update.pkg it brings me to recovery in says install from zip.or upate.wipe cache.etc.

Look here for three videos from giveen on how to NVflash: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydM7qkoCs00. Look here for files you'll need: http://d-h.st/users/TheManii. Your looking for a "Restore to 2.2.rar" file. Root with SuperUser7 later when you need too.

Hi Guys,
I really need some help to get my phone back to stock recovery..how do I do that..i think I messed up big time..i basically have no clue about the terminology involved so is there anyway that I could explain to someone over the phone without hogging a whole thread as to what I did wrong? I have a SPRINT htc one m8 and am pretty sure after unlocking and rooting it with s off safely i messed up because i saw that new OTA update and wanted it and tried locking my bootloader back and s on again and screwed up from then on..long story
my number is 7187493223..i would happily make a donation via paypal etc to any member willing to just help me out,
Thanks
Jason
If you're on a non-HK version M8 your best bet would be to run the 1.54.651.10 RUU. It can be found in the first post of the thread below, along with directions on how to install it. This will unroot your phone and install the stock recovery.

I did flash that HK audio thing onto my phone but its not the HK version,but also what youre recommending is basically if i understand correctly is to basically wipe it clean and install that stock recovery which would take it back to the pre mess it was in,right? i'm sorry if i'm not making any more sense.

Correct. The RUU (ROM Update Utility) will install the stock ROM and the stock recovery. It will also unroot your phone. I recommend downloading & installing HTC Sync to your computer before running the RUU, unless you've already done this. This will install drivers to your computer that may be needed for you to connect your phone and computer together.

Actually, I forgot that you don't have to connect your phone and computer to run the RUU. The process is actually quite simple using the fastboot method. Just make sure you have a good charge on your phone before installing the RUU.

um..i think im doing something wrong...its not doing anything..i extracted the file and moved it to my sd card but its not asking to install anything...
Download Sprint_HTC_One_M8_1.54.651.10_RUU.zip
-extract 0P6BIMG.zip to ext sd card
-boot into bootloader
-make sure hboot is highlighted, press power button
-it will scan your ext_sd card, then ask if you want to start the update
-press volume up & let it do it's thing
whats ext_sd card.. its the same as just the sd card right? it seems to show something in the bootloader but does nothing..am i doing something wrong?

Yes, it's your external SD card. Make sure you don't put the file in a folder, otherwise the bootloader won't find it. If all else fails you can connect your phone and computer and double-click the RUU file on your computer to run it. The RUU will need to be on your computer in order to run it.

when i do it on the phone with hboot/fastboot it says no image or wrong image..could the file be corrupted? its not in any folder,i set it outside the folder as a stand alone but for some reason the phone doesn't do anything with it,like i said,it says wrong image or no image etc..no idea what all that is..
Tell me what to do when i connect the phone and computer..while extracting also it doesn't go all the way,something about archive could be corrupted or damaged etc..

by the way i have s on and am rooted if that makes a difference..
Re-lock your bootloader. Put the RUU on your computer. Connect your phone and computer via USB cable. Reboot to the bootloader. You should see Fastboot USB highlighted in red once the connection is complete. Double-click the RUU file and follow the prompts on your computer.

Yes but I did it twice from two different mirrors and it's the same problem,so I'm guessing the original file is corrupt. :/ Theres no other place to get one is there? I googled the RUU but it's not out there except on here..

Nope, that's the only one. You might send @O.M.J. a PM regarding the issue. He's usually pretty responsive.
