Safest is always full wipe, but if noone in the Tazz 17 thread has said what worked for them, you could do a nandroid, just wipe Dalvik (not .android-secure) and flash over. Then if it gives trouble, nandroid restore your backup, backup your apps your favorite way (if you want to), then do a full wipe and flash, then restore your apps.

Rooting my HTC EVO 4G was cool, but it isnt for me at all. I dont have any service anywhere, my wifi sucks, when im in a 4G area, i dont get any 4G coverage. I drop the majority of my calls like my service is with AT&T or something, and overrall, this s**t sucks.

Rooting literally doesnt effect any of that... maybe you should check your rom bro.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Well none of that should be going on, something else has got to be causing issues. The majority of Evo roms are very stable, in my experiences. What rom are you having trouble with?

To answer your question, the easiest way to unroot is to download and flash the unrevoked s on tool (only if you've ever used unrevoked forever, which most likely you have). That'll turn S on in the bootloader. After that, download an RUU from here on XDA, and run the RUU from your computer. That will flash you back to stock, unrooted.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkrodgers:
Nothing you've described should be related to rooting, unless you've flashed something that isn't playing nicely. You are of course welcome to go back to stock, but maybe post what you've flashed and what you were hoping to accomplish by rooting. We may be able to give you some guidance.

I just exceeded my 5GB for the first time ever (I thought I exceeded it last month but I didn't).

My speed test results were as followed:

Pre-Throttle:

DOWN: 3.5 mb

UP: 2.0 mb

Post-Throttle:

DOWN: .06 mb

UP: .09 MB

That is insane. It takes absolutely forever just to load pages now, and my reset isn't until the 8th.

Is there a way around this?
[Nexus One General] onesavior:
Not that I am aware. use wifi.

This happened to me last month. Sucked balls
[Nexus One General] zmodp:
actually, there was some work done a couple months ago on this.

something about pulling a file out of /system or /data and then editing the file to delete a couple lines of code, then pushing back to phone. (you may be able to use RootExplorer if youre not adept at ADB)

i understand it that Tmo tracks data usage, then sends a message to your phone to throttle. this message changes some settings.

apparently if you delete or modify those lines of code, the throttle message from Tmo does NOTHING but take up space in your sms inbox :)

i would post the thread for you, but i forgot where i found it.

just googlesearch "nexus throttle xda" and you should find it.

...but it says "out of date" and when I pull up /system/framework/service.jar and try to open it in text editor, its just characters..

Anyone have information on this?

EDIT-

I found files in data/system/ that were called (Folder) Throttle (which was modified today, when my throttle would have taken effect), a file usagetracker and a folder usagestats (which had a few files created through the day today).

I deleted all of the above, rebooted....phone rebooted fine.

Let me check and see if I'm throttled still...

EDIT2-

Yeah, I shouldn't have expected it to be that easy lol. Still throttled.

EDIT3-

After rebooting and clicking my browser, the file in /data/system/throttle came back again...so it may actually have something to do with it.

File is -470754350 and temp.
[Nexus One General] pakraider:
I remember reading that switching over to EDGE and then back to 3G somehow made the throttling go away...
[Nexus One General] uoY_redruM:
Yeah I tried. I actually switched to 2g, deleted the throttle folder, switched back to 3g and tried again but same results. Soon as I switch to 3G and try anything to do with internet it puts that throttle folder back in the data/system folder.

I opened the file, and its just a bunch of numbers. I tried playing with the numbers a bit to see what happens but so far, nothing has changed...

[Nexus One General] Sinister Footwear:
Tmobile edge routers shape traffic based on IMSI, HLR, and VLR which are stored on the SIM and authenticate user equipment/accounts to the network... meaning, shaping is done at the OSI layer 3 network level... attempts to make changes at a higher level will result in the same condition (data throttled connection), which is why your changes to the registers on the device would not rectify the throttling... proxify your transmissions to get the result you desire...
[Nexus One General] pakraider:
Yeah, because it's being gobbled up for a fraction of what it was worth when Deutsche Telekom first bought it. They're strapped for cash and spectrum. Sad.
[Nexus One General] uoY_redruM:

Been searching and have not found any work around yet. Not sure what this means "proxify your transmissions to get the result you desire"??
[Nexus One General] uoY_redruM:
Yeah, I found nothing either. I think I'll have to stick it out, I'm not sure there's a way around it.

It'd be nice if we could get some guys together and figure out a solution to this for others though :)
[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
I think what galaxys is saying is that the throttling is done on the network side, not on your phone. So, no matter what change you make to your phone, you will still be throttled by the network. I don't see how proxying would help either since the data still goes over the network... unless it can't throttle encrypted traffic or something.
[Nexus One General] teh_lorax:
Yeah, and they bought them before the huge crash in 2001, so that really means nothing.
[Nexus One General] upyouratrix:
Ouch. That's a bummer. Wish I could help. I used 10.5Gb on att last month and no throttle.
[Nexus One General] uoY_redruM:
Yeah, just paid a nice hunk of bill for going over 2GB lol.

I think I'd rather have a 5GB cap and merely get throttled as apposed to being charged.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwizardtx:
I'd actually like to address this head on and ask you why you cannot currently transfer data from your android phone to your XOOM?

It is currently factually correct that you cannot take a MicroSD card out of your android phone and pop it into your XOOM and read files off it, but would you consider one of a handful of other options?

1. Plug your android phone into your computer and turn on the option to access its files, usually you see the little green android and a button that says to connect... shortly after your PC should autoplay the device and you can browse its files (and the SD card). This would allow you to pull files off your android phone, temporarily store them on your PC and then following a very similar procedure put them on your XOOM. The XOOM is even easier to connect to because of its filesystem, it doesn't have to unmount the storage and you can just plug it in and the PC will pick it up as a drive and autoplay it.

2. Use a cloud service like dropbox which is very easy to sign up for and set up, and gives you 2GB of storage. Install dropbox, set it up on the android phone... put your files you want "copied" into the designated dropbox folder and after you put dropbox on your XOOM the files will be synchronized.

I could come up with a variety of alternatives depending on your degree of experience but I think two should suffice for merely moving files from device A to device B.

If you're just pissed that your SD card slot doesnt work you could just say that too :)

I'm kind of happy that it doesn't work, because I don't need the added expense of a 32GB MicroSD card at the moment and personally... I think you go big or go home.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dch921:
Sorry but I would like the SD card to be working since it is much easier to transfer files then using another pc. When I am at work I simply pull my sdcard and use it in other peoples phones to give them updates, videos, etc without having to download it to their device. Thats one thing I do miss with my xoom and find myself waiting until I'm back home to put files on my xoom that I dont feel like waiting to download over 3G.

Love my Xoom and SD card support I can wait for, just hope its not a long wait
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dino325:
As I see where your coming from with the options man, my primary purpose of for an SD card is to store movies. If I keep a few 32GB sdcards onhand I can have my entire movie collection at my fingertips. Other than that I really don't have a need for one, its more of a added luxury.. It hasn't killed me thus far not having one, just waiting patiently ;-p.. Im also interested in the capabilities of the USB hosting as far as externals are concerned and exploring those possibilities but first they need to make a dock which has an output for USB. Its ridiculous that they release a so called Multimedia Dock without a USB hookup ugghh..

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chieftaco:
looks to me

Looks to me like this is the issue ->

Xoom ships with 32gb internal storage. It appears to have a folder on it called /sdcard which would normally be where you mount your sdcard. Android likes to save all of your pictures, movies, downloads, etc. on your /sdcard/.

Simply put, sounds like if they had shipped it with /sdcard as the mount point for your /sdcard, your ttu (typical tard user) would be forced to buy an sdcard to do anything with the tablet other than download apps from the market. This would give a bulking 32gb partition for system apps which would be unusable by camera, downloads, etc. until whatever software update will come down the road.

I too have a metric ****ton of micro sd cards laying around, but I dont mind so much not being able to use them in the xoom, because between pogoplug and tversity, with the occasional compliment of astro with cifs (smb) plugin, I can access anything I want from it's home on my network, and dont have to worry about syncing stuff between devices.

I'd much rather use my tablet to access my stuff than to store my stuff, period. For all of you mediaphiles out there, take a look at tversity. I've been using it for years, and it will live transcode & stream your media to anywhere, meaning you dont have to carry any of it around to be able to watch it. For the $30 one-time investment of the pro version, it will transcode to your mobile devices, android or even snapple. The free version will transcode & stream to absolutely anything else.. upnp media browsers, x360, ps3, media center, xbmc, etc.

what about internet

Everyone is saying use dropbox, use cloud to store files. Well remember this is Xoom Wifi, so that means if you're not home or don't have access to a hotspot then you are tost. So the idea that you can have a micro SD or even a few micro SD with all you need on it on the go sounds way more like a reasonable option then clod base or dropbox with limited storage. And with the hack to use an external storage like a wd portable hardrive is even more if an option. Imagine having access to 500 GB of data at you finger tips. Even in the cave or over the mountain with no wireless signal or wifi connection. Now that's what I call Xoom, Xoom, Xoom.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dubar:
ok so I hadnt even thought about this until now, but how will the xoom react to having an ACTUAL sdcard rather than this "virtual" /sdcard/ that it is using now. That is to say, it seems like there is no way that we can get the sdcard working without a wipe of /sdcard/ since that will (presumably) no longer point to a virtual drive. Its not like they could just merge the folders without any issues. Can anyone comment?
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnesus:
