Hey guys,

I am trying to Unroot my droid incredible but I am running into one slight problem I go to download the file which is in the sticky above "how to unroot your phone" the file is downloaded and saved just fine.

However I go to extract the zip file and It unzips to the "downgrade" folder which is saved to the desktop but then when i try to unzip the item within the "downgrade" folder it says that it is corrupt and I should try Installing it again....

I have tried this numerous times all ending in the same outcome.
Your help would be much appreciated!! I don't know if I am doing something wrong or are other people having the same problem

Looking Forward to hearing from you

first you need to make sure that your SD card is formatted to FAT32 in order to flash the .ZIP file. second from my understanding you can only flash .ZIP files in recovery which is what your trying to do, so dont extract it put the .zip file on your sd card then boot into recovery and it should do all the work from there. also please read this and DONT JUST SKIM IT http://androidforums.com/all-things...er-nandroid-adfree-animation-remove-apps.html
