Did you read the instructions? The first link is the OTA that you would get straight from Google. All you should do is copy the zip file to the root of your SD card and rename to update.zip (make sure it's not update.zip.zip by enabling show file extensions).

You also must have a STOCK recovery for the ota to work, as far as I know.

Yes, you need stock recovery. I assumed the OP does because he said he was unrooted.

Well, that's the answer you wanted. If you can't follow those directions, then we can't really help you anymore, there really isn't anything else to say. It was all right there.

[GUIDE] Easiest way to unroot HTC Legend

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?

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.

The Update.pkg can only be ran from the stock recovery menu, sounds like your on CWM.

An "Update.pkg" can't be installed from CWM only a stock recovery.

Look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Dell_Streak_7#Official as there seems to be a recovery download link for 2.2(336). That should give you a stock recovery from which you can install that "Update.pkg".

From Fastboot type: Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
If you haven't used Fastboot before you need to search, read and install drivers then.

Got to poke around in that zip for the proper drivers. You may have to NVflash back to 2.2 now to fix whatever happened. 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.
how do i know which file is 2.2 on that list not in description?

If you're on the Sprint One, it won't work. The rom doesn't work on our device at the moment.

im guessing you have TWRP so:
download zip file from link and copy it as it is to the folder recovery in your phone. you can do this in your computer or adb push(google it)
now, enter recovery TWRP and use recovery. search file and presto you in.
