Root revert to stock for official OTA 2.2

[McChazo]

ok, sorry, iv read so many threads and im extremely lost right now, i guess i just don't understand all the terminology yet. anyways, this is my setup


Android 2.2
Baseband 2.15.00.07.28
Kernal: 2.6.32 Hydra ssuv 05
build: 3.16.605
Skyraider 2.5.2 sense
webkit 3.1
S-Off

I had rooted it with unrevoked 3 - unrevoked forever and installed skyraider 2.5.2 - the hydra kernal - and turned S-Off

im assuming somewhere in there i installed that clockwork recovery thing or whatever also, i have no idea what i did really, but i managed it all somehow

but now im looking to go back to a clean slate and get the official OTA

in easy steps a **** can follow, how do i go about doing that? :\

from what i understand i need to:

reinstall stock 2.1
reinstall stock radio 1. something?
reinstall stock clockwork recov?
reinstall stock kernal
does s-off need to go back on?

sighs

y dont u just download the 2.2 RUU, it is EXACTLY the same. no difference.

but if you want to get the official OTA then you r gonna have to go to STOCK everything. it would just be easier for you to just flash the 2.2 RUU and start with a clean phone.

well that sounds fine also i suppose, is there a specific process for that?

i really just want the phone completely wiped clean and have 2.2 :\

well if you want it completely wiped clean then flashing the RUU is the way to go. i used this:

How to: Update your DROID Incredible to Leaked Android 2.2 | Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog

but they got it from XDA, if you want to follow XDA then:

xda-developers - View Single Post - [RUU_Incredible_C_Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.21.605.1_Radi o_2.15.00.07.28]

the droid-life one is a little easier. it should take you no longer then 10-15 minutes to do this.

thanks, and this 2.2 is the same as the official OTA right? so future updates can be OTA, or will that most likely be another obstacle?

 

[kkl1993]

this is the "leaked" official 2.2, but its EXACTLY the same, no difference at all, only difference is that it came out a little earlier before the OFFICIAL OTA, lol. i am 99% you will still get all the OTA's, but if you cant ppl will find a way. there wont be an update for quite a while.

I am "officially" not reading anymore OTA threads.
Congrats on being the last

Hi, I was in the same boat as you. Had a rooted 2.1 with the stock ROM, had to jump through hoops to get the OTA First I had to flash the 2.1 stock recovery image, then update the software to something .02, then the OTA came. FWIW, I'm not impressed with 2.2 and plan on rooting again (against my better judgement ) as soon as unrevoked 3.2 is ready.
