"Appears" that issue is the radio and hboot...0.97 that installs with OTA. Since you rooted an older way you may still have hboot version unaffected ?? I'm no expert on this. We won't see alot of discussion on issue as few folks have had to do an S-On so they can return the phone after doing unroot, then OTA, then unrevoked again. There are probably other combinations that have this issue as well ?? The easiest short term workaround apparently is to downgrade the radio, then S-On...but then have to re-upgrade the radio on a rooted phone...another issue before you can return phone.

Here's one who was testing to see if he could revert and got flamed for his effort BUT he was the one that really surfaced the issue...unrevoked team is aware of issue now. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=790342

Here's one http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-evo-4g/134220-unrevoked3-s-tool-latest-ota.html who asked question to unrevoked folks.

The problem with un-rooting and doing an OTA is it always carries a risk we can't see yet. But before the S-On tool there was no way to revert if you used unrevoked forever anyway. Sure this will get worked out.

Jim

UPDATE...see that there is a newer S-On available...its not mentioned but hopefully it's no longer even an issue? :-)
[EVO 4G Android Development] jerrygon:
Ok someone please please please help me out. I am trying to unroot my phone so I can take it back to the store to get my speaker replaced. I am on hboot .93 with S-ON.... I originally rooted with simpleroot. I never used unrevoked. I run the file in bootloader and it always comes back telling me "Main Version is older" "Update Fail!" I have deleted everything else from the card. Can someone please she some light...

Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] Bargsbeer:
I need to unroot I need to return the phone (USB port is slowly getting worst)

So far I have S-on

but when Hboot usb scans PC36IMG it gives me error image not found or wrong image.

so far I have wiped cache several times, and loaded PC36IMG several times and downloaded it twice.

Also currently running bakedSnack ROM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] markbo2000:
I have this same issue, I was trying to unroot to start over or bring back phone. I lost 4G after update at some point. I am unsure what caused me to loose the 4G, but the MAC address changed as I have seen in other threads, but do not know how to change it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darth Duane:
I got the same issue with "Man version is older". I found some information in another thread that said to flash the MTD-ENG.img from toasts NAND unlock instructions. I tried it and it worked. Give that a try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
This is part of root process not un-root.

EDIT...Well from comments I see below this apparently does work...assume because ENG Spl will allow flash of any ROM...but does it change back to stock after running the PC36IMG? Hey it works...goodo

Jim
[EVO 4G Android Development] jerrygon:
Darth Duane YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

OMG This worked... THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I am now unrooted and ready to take the phone back to the store...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Darth Duane:
No problem glad i could help ;). I spent most of a day trying to tackle that same problem so that i could take mine in for repair.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cwilson200932:
Ok i understand the root and it is very simple from when i first rooted my evo it is unrooted right now going back in for insurance issues. when i root with this do i still flash a rom in the "Recovery" or do u flash another way with this root?
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
This is for unrooting...use manual method like regaw_leinad guide or unrevoked 3.21 guide on XDA

Jim
[EVO 4G Android Development] thaprinze:
So, I completed my unroot & am now at 3.26.651.6 code. However, my PRI is still at 1.34_003. I want to return the phone to Sprint (4G issues) but I want the phone to be up to date. If I take the latest OTA update, will it automatically update my PRI as well? I just want to be sure all my tracks are covered. Thanks!
[EVO 4G Android Development] billbrasky82:

In recovery mode, I do not have a USB-MS Toggle option available. Please advise on unrooting unrevoked3 since I do not have this option to transfer the PC zip.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thaprinze:
Thanks! Here's hoping "all goes well."
[EVO 4G Android Development] jelive:
Boot phone normal...plug in phone with USB cable to computer...when popup shows on phone screen charge only, disk drive, etc. select disk drive. You can then transfer the file from desktop to the root of the sd card. Computer sees it just like a drive. Then power off, then hold down vol button and hold power button at same time and hold both till it boots to white screen and then should automatically start loading the PC36IMG.zip file.

Jim
[EVO 4G Android Development] tron360:
I get the error main version is older. Does anyone have the new pc36img.zip?
[EVO 4G Android Development] thaprinze:

[EVO 4G Android Development] jabbawalkee:
So does anyone have the proper PC36IMG that works to UNROOT the Evo? The one in the OP doesn't work - tried countless times and it says "Main version older." I've also tried the other guides involving flashing stock RUUs...fuuuuu

This is what Darth Duane suggested a few pages back. A few others claim it worked for them too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] djR3Z:
Hey guys, sorry I've been MIA. I'll get a new PC36IMG.zip up tomorrow. Its because you're on the newest OTA. Sorry I haven't been around to up the latest one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ported52:
Thank you, that would be awesome. I as well have tried all the other methods with no success...
[EVO 4G Android Development] cwolf2:
two quick things... the downloads on the unrevoked site seem to be down... hopefully those come back soon.

Second, I made a mistake while unrooting. I used Unrevoked 3.21, and did not realize that included unrevoked forever. I did the second part of the instructions without first doing the s-on code (which I can't download as of now). Do I need to re-root with unrevoked 3.21 to be able to do the s-on part, and then re-un-root again (re-un-root, awesome...)

Thanks for the help
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Didn't work for me :(

When I flashed the PC36IMG, it said failed, then something about "older version" before it rebooted itself. Restored a back-up.

I wanna unroot and go back to stock because my GPS is seriously acting up. Won't hold a signal for more than a minute before it starts "GPS signal lost."
[EVO 4G Android Development] ported52:
You should be able to do the unrevoked S-on after you flash the PC36IMG without a problem. Also make sure you remove the PC36IMG from the root of your sd, as this will cause some hassle when flashing the s-on.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ported52:
You probably have the newest OTA which is why it didnt work. The new PC36IMG should be coming soon.

I need to bring my phone into a sprint store so I need to make sure they dont know my phone is rooted. I went into recovery and rebooted my phone. Superuser permissions is gone.

Dumb question: To unroot through running the RUU exe on your PC, should you be on the stock ROM, or can you run it while you're running a custom ROM on the phone? Thanks.

[EVO 4G Android Development] Bargsbeer:
I never did any updates, I just got my phone a month ago it already had 2.2 installed.
[EVO 4G Android Development] bowser001:
Probably didn't have the latest ota.I tried that n it didn't work
[EVO 4G Android Development] :
Ok I am having some issues, so I unrooted because I wanted to start fresh using this method and I have S-on now. It didn't delete everything that I thought it would like pictures etc cause I wanted to start super fresh.

Would I use a RUU specifically to start "brand new" I did already back up the phone on my desktop. And what ruu would I use to unlock? I have tried multiple ones but I keep getting a error 170 and 171 USB error on Windows 7 with the latest HTC Sync installed. My initial root was with Unrevoked as well.

If I cant get this to RUU is there a way I can go and just root again or turn S-Off?

Thanks!

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] le3ky:
Firstly let me make clear that I have taken inspiration from SimpText by UltraLinx. I loved the idea he had created, very simple and minimalistic, however on my Desire the icons were just too small to be useful for me. Very kindly, UltraLinx also provided the PSD file he based his icons on. From this I amended the colours, the font, the size, as well as some more font options.

The end result is as follows:

I can create more to your liking if requested ;)

Currently there are 139 icons in 10 different colours below:

Black

Bright Red

Dark Red

Green

Light Blue

Orange

Pastel Blue

Pink

White

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] kemoba:
You dont need to wipe dalvik or cache when flashing, about that signature that means that the file is not signed, you need to go to install zip from sd card and scroll down to toggle signature verification, click it until it shows disabled and then try to flash the image it should work, if not then you need someone to sign the zip file.

[Fascinate Android Development] BTownTKD:
Hey guys.

Any time I connect the phone to my computer via USB, the phone's touchscreen goes bonkers. It wont register my touch in the correct location, it jumps around and registers button-presses that I never pressed, or won't register a firm screen-press at all!

If the USB is unplugged, everything zips along accurately.

Any idea what might be causing this, and how I might fix it?

Just a quick background:

I rooted and installed the lag-fix. I encountered a problem with the lag-fix, restored factory settings, and root/lag-fixed again. The problem cropped up after the factory restore.
[Fascinate Android Development] namebrandon:
That's wacky. Since you've already done it once, I'd just restore again and see if that fixes it.
[Fascinate Android Development] BTownTKD:
Also... not sure if this is a side-effect of the factory restore, but guess what suddenly appeared in my Widgets list??

Google Search!

:confused:
[Fascinate Android Development] namebrandon:
Using LauncherPro by any chance? It's been showing up with LP since Day 1.. If not, that's pretty darn cool then. :)
[Fascinate Android Development] BTownTKD:
Oops... launcherPro.

I've since reset the factory settings again; no luck. Still all wonky when USB is plugged in.

I'm considering taking it back to best buy and simply exchanging it for a different one, since I've only had it for a day. I would think that resetting everything to factory defaults would have fixed any software problem. Maybe this is a hardware problem that I just now noticed.
[Fascinate Android Development] evilbunnyfufu:
I have heard roomer, that if your usb is to low or to high of a voltage it will bork up the touch screen while plugged in.
[Fascinate Android Development] masterotaku:
it seems a common occurrence on many Android phones that use our style of USB port that if you use a 3rd party usb cable (i.e. one other than what shipped with the phone) as well as many 3rd party usb wall chargers that the touchscreen will either go bonkers or freeze up alltogether.

I've seen the exact same thing happen with my friends HTC MT3G and Motorola CliqXT using certain cables and chargers. Any cables/chargers that do this to my Vibrant do it to their phones too.
[Fascinate Android Development] BTownTKD:
Interesting. I'm glad I read all this before I decided to take it back;

the laptop I had it plugged into is so fubar'd, that it would not surprise me to find that it has incorrect voltage...
[Fascinate Android Development] makickal:
This happens all the time on my Droid 2, Nexus and Fascinate. I just swipe very quickly and press lightly. However, no matter how many "tricks" I try it's still hard to flip through screens or open the correct app. Hardest task would be to navigate a website. Considering it happens on multiple Android devices and computers I never really put too much thought into it. Just figured it to be a Android bug.
[Fascinate Android Development] bwhite757:
Wow, never seen this. Now I do use the cable that came with my fascinate to plug into my computer, however car charger, wall chargers, and a USB charger (in my truck), I just use the cables from my Droid1. All my chargers are generics... Hmmm..
[Fascinate Android Development] ace5198:
my htc touch pro 2 did the same thing when i used a gps car charger... screen went crazy
[Fascinate Android Development] lane32x:
chargers

Ok. So for anyone wanting to know what's going on in the background to cause problems with your phone with crappy chargers....

I first discovered this with another touch screen player *cough*ipodTouch*cough*cough when I was trying to make a universal 4-port USB charging bay that would work with my sansa and my ...other player.

The specification that most device-manufacturing companies use nowadays for charging states that

for a device to recognize a charger (and to start accepting a charge from the charger), the data pins must be shorted (connected together)

. This is what Sandisk, Apple, and several others are using. That is how I built my 4 port USB charger and it works flawlessly (with my sansa, ipod, galaxy, and Cowon S9).

NOW, somewhere floating around on the net are specs that state that some data must be sent/received through the USB's data cable (i believe it claims to need any 2.5V) which basically puts some resistors in to make a voltage divider.with the power and ground and data pins. THESE ARE BAD SPECS. They might have been legit in the past for some other device, but they are NOT what our phones need.

So some of the cheap, off-brand chargers are actually sending random messages to our Phones through the data pins (non-sense 2.5 volts). I haven't heard any reports of this damaging the phone or mp3 players yet, but whenever I plug mine into a charger and I lose the ability to control the screen, I get nervous b/c I know there is voltage on the data pins, and I don't know if it's the correct amount. So I get nervous

...does that make sense?
