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 .

What's the point to unroot, I'd rather flash a rooted but stock rom if I have to

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?
Image zip for the Asian version of the Incredible S.

Who downloaded !?
Is this Gingerbread with the new Sense? I'm wondering if the devs could cook something for the Desire HD with that piece of software...
I'm all over this
Can i get a mirror? No clue where the download button/link is on 115...

+1 here too, I can't find a download link and all I have on my sample is the 1.36 dev rom.
never mind.
Found out that when chrome auto-translates, or when you use google translate to translate the page, the links disappear.

How to flash PG32IMG files?
Sorry guys, a little new with flashing on the Incredible S. How do you apply these files? Rename it to update.zip, copy to SD card and boot in Recovery?
Name: PG32IMG.zip
Place: root of SD-card
Start bootloader, follow the instructions on screen.
Thanks!
Since I am already on it when I got the phone, I suppose this is worth to keep as a backup?
Hey timbo,
Thanks for the quick response. I followed your instructions. Booted into bootloader, it detected the file, loaded and checked. Then it fall back to the main menu. So I thought it is safe to reboot. But when I got back to my phone, its still on the old software. Did I miss anything?
Perhaps. Didn't tried it, maybe your current version number is higher than this one. Just follow my downgrade guide, but use this file instead off the one in the guide.
But I am on an European firmware 1.36.405.1. Was thinking of flashing this to get the Asian languages.
Update:
Wait a minute. Do I need goldcard to be able to flash? My phone isn't branded.

Working only if u have Goldcard!
I have tried creating using GoldCard Helper. Making sure the reverse ID was correct twice. Followed all the procedures to the dot. Copied the PG32IMG file into the card. Booted, loaded, checked. Nothing happened.
Help?

But your device is branded ?
Actually no, the device is not branded. So I initially thought GoldCard is not required. But I do it anyway just make sure I don't miss out anything.
The device is on European ROM (indicated by the European languages) version 1.36.405.1. Radio seems to be up to date. So I don't know what I am missing up here.
Anybody can help? I just want to change the region to Asia WWE so that I can have the local languages. Or it is preferred that I go for RUU files?

Hi, MOD pleasde move this!.
Ok, there's no simple answer for your question, you only have to SEARCH the forum and READ READ READ and be sure you READ everything before attempting any hack to your device. If you don't know what your doing, please don't try doing it without reading.
And please post question in the right section. :good:
This is not a development thread.
Moved to General.

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".
thank you and sorry total noob.how do i go about flashing recovery and do i have to rename it..

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?

Never tried it myself but I have used the file linked above.
thank you for your help...but to be honest my girl figured it out..i told her the issue,and she just googled and next thing u know its working..
Wheres the correct package for tmobile 3.2 and whats the best way to flash it..
I was checking HTC website for a factory image for my HTC One GPE Original and these files show up on the search. Is there a way to flash these via ADB/Fastboot? They don't appear to have any .img files after I unzipped them. Any help is appreciated, I am trying to ressurrect my One GPE original. BTW, I found them on the htcdev devcenter downloads. Thanks.
These are source code files. Nothing flashable there

Like I said, I search everywhere. That recovery is 4.20.654.10. I need 4.20.651.4. That recovery is for harman. I need the non harman. Ive searched all the threads. Many 404 links or not updated. I even googled the version to see if I could get an archived file. Nothing.

Just download that, unzip, and your recovery.img should be in there
