For those of you that are looking for a more permanent solution without the hassle of using mortscripts and apps that run everytime you start your device then look no further. Just simply change or add if they dont exist, the following registry keys:

Key: HKLM\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms

Name: SuspendOffDelayInterval

Default Value: 30000

New Value: 0

Key: HKLM\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms

Name: WlanAlwaysOnEnable

Default Value: 0

New Value: 1

And you are done! Also try soft resetting! You will see the values keep! :)

No other registry changes are necessary!

This is also being incorported into Touch Tools 2 to make things even easier for people!

Enjoy!

thanks dude...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kuwait:
I found my value to be 2 and Wifi is not switching off on standby.

So you may try only with:

Key: HKLM\Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms

Name: WlanAlwaysOnEnable

Default Value: 0

New Value: 2

May be it will do.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lyriquidperfection:
Thats unusual, would have thought an 'Enable' parameter would either be 1 or 0.

[Captivate General] skinien:
I finally decided to apply a lag-fix to my phone. I used the RyanZA fix available in the market. I'm not exactly sure on the stock partition configuration on the Captivate but if I understand the lag-fix, an ext2 partition is created and the system files are moved to that partition.

Thinking ahead for when Froyo areives, I'm wondering if I can format all of my internal storage and reinstall a ROM. If I format the internal storage, do the necessary partitions need to be created manually or does installing a ROM create the needed partitions?

I hope this question makes sense. I'm fairly new to Android so execuse me if my terminology is off.

Thanks.

Berzerker for pres.

EDIT: NVM, and thanks for the guide will become helpful in the future.
[Droid Incredible General] kbnguy:
Yes sir!

Mod pls make it a sticky.

[Droid Incredible General] Chip Chipperson:
Thanks Berzerker!!!
[Droid Incredible General] spjoneser:
I would suggest sticky also. Things have changed a bit over the last few months and these instructions are current. In fact I just followed the exact steps in part 2 a week ago before sending in for a warranty. Did a nandroid before those steps and when I got my replacement all I had to do was run unrevoked 3.2 and restore my nandroid, right back where I left off!

Almost don't even see the need for part 1 though as 2.2 has become stock?

anyways, Thanks!
[Droid Incredible General] lordv8r:
The link for the RUU has a dash instead of an underscore. Here is a corrected link:http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/stockstuff/PB31IMG_3.21.605.1_RUU.zip
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
Fixed in OP.

Some people might want 2.1 for some odd reason, so I thought I'd include instructions (maybe they don't trust the 2.2 RUU or something, or want faster battery charging).
[Droid Incredible General] dg32:
FYI you tried to link something in the word "this" and it didn't work.

Anyway, I put the PB31IMG-3.21.605.1_RUU.zip on my SD card as PB31IMG.zip and it wasn't recognized in HBOOT. I tried flashing the 2.15.00.07.28 radio as PB31IMG.zip and it wasn't recognized either.

Running Skyraider Sense 2.5.2, 2.05.00.06.11 radio. I ran unrevoked forever yesterday but then flashed the s-on file from your step 1A of part 2.
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
Fixed link in OP.

If you're S-ON, you'll have to flash signed RUU's. Since your radio seems to be older than the 2.2 RUU, you can just flash the 2.2 RUU and it should recognize it.
[Droid Incredible General] JoeyBert:
Will part 2 work if I'm rooted/s-off using the 100% stock 2.2 ROM found in this forum?

[Droid Incredible General] JoeyBert:
Last question, still new to this - can you still get OTA updates after rooting/s-off?
[Droid Incredible General] dan h:
Thank you for this thread! Got my phone all stock ready for an exchange!
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
No, you cannot.

Just wanted to make sure everyone knew. ;) :D
[Droid Incredible General] xdarkfirex:
The answer is not a simple no. If the phone is rooted and a certain thing is removed then you wont get the OTA. Also if you are not rooted but S-off you will get the OTA (s-off and root is not the same thing)
[Droid Incredible General] bemick:
Thanks very much for this. Worked perfectly for me.
[Droid Incredible General] Dat108Kat:
worked like a charm...thanks
[Droid Incredible General] RYANIMOSITY:
i still have HBOOT .92 does that matter for me to send back or do i need to change it back to .77
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
If you're completely stock at 2.2 (no root, s-on, stock recovery) then having .92 HBOOT is fine.
[Droid Incredible General] RYANIMOSITY:
Thanks for the info Berzerker
[Droid Incredible General] Namolas:
Berzerker,

I just want to express my utmost gratitude for this tutorial. One thousand thanks.

[Droid Incredible General] ufvj217:
quick question...i just de rooted back to 2.2 stock, and its all good except it still shows the skyraider boot image...why is that?
[Droid Incredible General] ufvj217:
anyone know?
[Droid Incredible General] boomertwo:
Did you run the RUU? If you did it should have replaced any custom boot flash.
[Droid Incredible General] ufvj217:
i installed s-on, then flashed this: http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/stockstuff/PB31IMG_3.21.605.1_RUU.zip
[Droid Incredible General] dirtpan:
noob question

Sorry about this dumb question, but what is s-on and s-off?

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible General] fuzzynco:
Returning phone with bad speakers

If I S-ON first will Hboot still accept the tailored PB32IMG?

I thought the S-OFF Hboot was needed to have unsigned images?

Do I need a standard RUU like

RUU_Incredible_C_Froyo_VERIZON_WWE_3.21.605.1_Radio_2.15.00.07.28_2k4k_NV_1.50_PRL58006_release_143351_signed.exe

After that?

((seeing dots from all this flashing ;)))

Thanks

PS:

I did a:

nandroid backup via rom manager/clockworkmod

titanium backup of everything

'my backup pro' backup of all data and all apps

I took screen shots of all my home screens

so I could recreate on the new hardware.

Wondering if I forgot anything to backup?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] setexascustoms:
Anyone feel free to correct me, but I think the RUU is a signed zip.
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
The stock RUU's I posted are not "tailored." They are straight signed by HTC.
[Droid Incredible General] studiorat:
i have done this a bunch in the last few weeks all with no problems ... until today

i downloaded the file pushed to my sd and renamed it and rebooted into Hboot ...Hboot saw the file and said it was the wrong image and never continued what could be the issue... and is there a work around another way to get the proper outcome? that would be extremely helpful!!
[Droid Incredible General] fuzzynco:
Trying to "return to factory 2.2" for exchange return.

I got both files from part 2.

I copied the S-ON file to the root of

of the 2gb sdcard the phone comes with

as PB31IMG.zipand rebooted it into hboot.

I told it to fastboot, and it did read

the PB31IMG.zip file but its still S-OFF?

what am I doing wrong? Will it show up correctly

after the second file is loaded?

Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
You need to flash the S-ON .zip in ClockworkMod Recovery (not run it in HBOOT) before applying the PB31IMG (in HBOOT).

Give me a little more info, what's your phone status now, and which part of the guide are you following?
[Droid Incredible General] JWorth:
my volume buttons don't work (why i am returning the phone), so how can i accept the PB31IMG? i can't press vol up to start update...
[Droid Incredible General] fuzzynco:
kk... everything worked as expected.

Thanks again for the help :D
[Droid Incredible General] ACD168:
This just helped me out for my refurb coming tmw, thanks mang.
[Droid Incredible General] madtomatoes:
Didn't this thread used to be stickied? I need to do this, and am wondering if it was unstickied because it was out of date or if there was any easier way to go about doing this. I have Skyraider 3.3.2, KingK BFS #5, S-off, 2.15 radio.
[Droid Incredible General] ptsmith24:
This site has helped me for post-root activities but I haven't tried going back to stock. theincrediblelist . com / guides /rmaguide.html
[Droid Incredible General] ak110707:
can the OP be updated. I believe there are easier methods but being a n00b im not positive as to what they are. Get back to stock thread should be kept up, because it is a very important resource for those locked into contracts.
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
uh...there's no easier way than following this guide.

And no, this never was stickied, though it definitely should be.
[Droid Incredible General] ak110707:
OK, I assumed there would be a newer way as clockwork and other recoveries evolve. No worries, I'm happily rooted.
[Droid Incredible General] ptsmith24:
What is going to be your first ROM? I started with virtuous with the custom kernel and now I'm running skyraider. I'm being a little more careful since I have an slcd.
[Droid Incredible General] ak110707:
CM6.1 R2... I wanted a fully open source OS.
[Droid Incredible General] ptsmith24:
I want to try CM but I have an LCD and need to find out which kernels play nice with CM and support SLCD.
[Droid Incredible General] CCrew:
Quick question I'll throw out there.

Great info here, but has this been tested on a SLCD unit? Since there never was an SLCD that was at 2.1, going to 2.1 with the upgrade to 2.2 might be an issue?

I know those of us that have SLCD units have found other issues related (think ClockworkMod Recovery) to the SLCD and was curious. Thanks!
[Droid Incredible General] KidJoe:
some newbie questions about this process...

Am I correct in thinking this will revert you back to stock, even if you were running some other custom ROM?

I'm curious... Assuming you're already S-ON, and do not have the 2.15.00.09.01, is there any difference between the process "Part 2: 2.2 stock using OTA RUU" in the first post of this thread, compared to just using the signed Froyo RRU exe hosted by Shipped-Roms.com from your PC? Or do both give the same outcome?

And finally, does this process work if you've applied the NOV 2010 update, and you want to roll back (but don't have a nandroid or other backup)?
[Droid Incredible General] JOSHINBOS:
Ive tried using instructs from Part 2

I ran the Unrevoked zip file

Then I downloaded the PB31IMG_3.21.605.1_RUU.zp file pushed it out the SD renamed it PB31IMG.zip did an HBOOT and I keep getting "Img not found"

Ive also tried opening the PB31IMG.zip file on my desk top and keeps telling me the file is corrupt during file transfer... Anyone have this issue any help would be appreciate

[Droid Incredible General] RegnierD:
I'd try re-downloading the file. Usually that means the file was corrupted somewhere along the process. Salty, as I know it took a while for me to get it, but worthwhile if you need stock.

Edit: Try downloading it to your computer and then transfer the file to the root of the sd card and so on.
[Droid Incredible General] JOSHINBOS:
Tried it 6 different times same end result ... Next up Im going to try and download it direct onto my phone and see what happens

Update: Downloaded it directly to Phone ... Renamed it PB31IMG.zip... Did HBOOT and it complained that were was no IMG
[Droid Incredible General] swhitney2003:
No OTA showing up

I've tried running through the steps to revert back to 2.1 and receive the OTA update (to 2.2), but it never shows up. I waited at least a couple days each time. Does it even work anymore, does VZW only broadcast the update once a week or something? At one point while doing a bunch of flashing and rebooting and 2.2 was installed (SkyRaider rom I tested), the OTA update that just came out this week showed up almost immediately.
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
Did you manually apply the exchange OTA I posted? That should fix your ota certs so that your phone will see the latest updates.

It's recommended to RUU to 2.2 though, so you don't get the upgrade that locks down your phone.
[Droid Incredible General] influxvicions:
How can I tell if I'm s-off? what that means anyways?
[Droid Incredible General] RegnierD:
From the top of your hboot screen. It effectively means Security Off, and allows you to run things through hboot that CWM can't, like an RUU or a custom radio.
[Droid Incredible General] GatesisBoss:
I'm doing everything as posted and when I boot back into HBOOT nothing happens?
[Droid Incredible General] d4jerry:
this is also happening to me. I have reformatted my card to fat32 renamed everything etc etc and hboot still will not recognize the PB31IMG.zip file. I have seen many people with this problem but no solutions. help is much appreciated thanks in advance!!
[Droid Incredible General] RegnierD:
Are you guys positive that you are S-Off?
[Droid Incredible General] d4jerry:
no, i am s-on. however I read that this doesnt matter because the file is a certified? (not sure if that is the right word) file and can be read by the device s-on or s-off. I am trying to get back to stock to return my phone so i want to have it s-on anyway. thanks
[Droid Incredible General] d4jerry:
okay so i tried reformatting it on a pc and it worked. I guess something was up with the way my mac was formatting my sd card to fat32. thanks for everything. so my solution (for others out there) was to reformat my card through windows to fat32 then just went through the process and everything went smoothly. thanks again
[Droid Incredible General] jmc2543:
So I am not noobe to android but HTC is a different monster altogether from Moto rooting/unrooting. I rooted my inc and want to unroot it but when I get to the part in the OP about booting into HBoot and letting it search for the file is when I star having problems. It is suppose to ask if I want to accept this file, it dosen't it just goes right into loading the file. Then it loads the file up and and starts looking at it, eventually it fails out with an error message about "MAIN Version is older! Update failed! Do you want to reboot?" I am s-on and have radio 2.15.00.07.28, and I did accept the ota update with vzapp and what not before I rooted, what am i doing wrong or what file do I need?
[Droid Incredible General] DandyDon2k:
I am having this same issue, "MAIN Version is older! Update failed! Can anyone help with this? I need to return my phone because wifi stopped working and I really need to get back to stock.

[Droid Incredible General] refader:
So do I need to do Part 1 and then Part 2 or can I just go straight to part 2?
[Droid Incredible General] ItsMeCD:
Need some insight please...

Berzerker,

First, I'm S=OFF running Iced Glacier (newest build) with a radio file of 26.03.02.26_M (that's all that's listed)...

I've tried running the file from the OP (unrevoked-son.zip) through Clockwork (install zip from SD card) but it kicks back an error saying it will not install. I've also downloaded directly to the device, from multiple computers, different SD cards, ... you get the drift.

Can you give me any advice?
[Droid Incredible General] doug piston:
^^^ Isn't that a desire radio?
[Droid Incredible General] JoeyBert:
I would like to know this as well
[Droid Incredible General] RegnierD:
You can go straight to instruction set 2. Set 1 is for a downgrade to Eclair.
[Droid Incredible General] RegnierD:
You have either a Desire Z or G2. These are for the Incredible, thus, they will not work for you.

The section in your development forums will help you a lot more than we can. ;)
[Droid Incredible General] refader:
When I do step 1B in part 2, should I wipe the cache partition and the Dalvik cache before I install the s-on .zip?
[Droid Incredible General] RegnierD:
You should be fine just flashing it.
[Droid Incredible General] palomosan:
Good and important post, it should get sticky.
[Droid Incredible General] ItsMeCD:
I don't know how or why I would have that radio. It is a MT4G running Iced Glacier. I've tried everything I can find to unroot...still looking.

Thanks for the feedback

This is *only* for the HTC Incredible, it doesn't work with any other devices like the EVO or MT4G.

Hey guys I tried following the steps from part 2 and i got S-ON but when I tried to load the PB31IMG.zip it would not open the file in hboot. I tried to reboot so I could try to reload the file to see if it was corrupted along the way and now I am currently stuck in the loading screen and cannot get it to respond. it has been doing this for the last 10 mins. Any advice?

Should I pull the battery?

Any advice would be great. I'm completely new to all of this.
[Droid Incredible General] Berzerker7:
Make sure your SDCard is formatted FAT32 and the zip is named exactly PB31IMG.zip

Make sure the one you download has the version 3.26.605.1 and it should work.

Correct.

So... it would seem to me that ADB isn't really necessary for option 2... am I missing something? I can plug my phone in to my computer and drag and drop files onto the SD card. Do I really need ADB to push it?

It seems like option 2 consists of

1. flash S-on

2. flash the stock ROM

Is ADB necessary?
[Droid Incredible General] Fingertips:
Also, this will get rid of clockwork recovery, right? It will take it back to the stock recovery?
[Droid Incredible General] :
Yup, just flash s-on through recovery. Then go into hboot and run the ruu. Should be completely stock. Just like you took it out of the box.

No need for ADB. Honestly I've never even touched it.
[Droid Incredible General] Fingertips:
Yep, worked like a charm. Flashed S-On in clockwork and then the signed zip in HBOOT. No ADB required.

Awesome.

[Droid Incredible General] dubluv17:
So I will be sending my Incredible back soon and I did everything in this thread. I was just curious as to exactly what Verizon looks for to check if the phone has been rooted. Any more than just looking for "S-On" and root? I just don't want a bill for my new phone because the old one wasn't "stock." Thanks.
[Droid Incredible General] dubluv17:
Anyone????
[Droid Incredible General] k_nivesout:
Well what's your situation? Are you back on the stock rom with s-on or on a custom one with s-off? I don't think they pay that much attention but I would return the phone to stock if it were me..
[Droid Incredible General] kzoodroid:
I've sent rooted phones back to Verizon for replacement and they've never said anything.
[Droid Incredible General] dubluv17:
Hmm, the guy at the Verizon store said to make sure it wasn't rooted or they would charge me for the phone...this is why I'm concerned lol.
