I'm not sure PD15IMG.zip reverts gfree. Let's have HeavyComponent test and verify one way or the other.

Has anyone tried returning to stock from a gingerbread ROM like CM7 using this stock 2.2.1 image?

Any issues?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
The ROM you run doesn't matter because this image completely overwrites everything. HBOOT, radio, recovery, ROM.

As stated above it's unclear whether it reverts gfree so if you followed that procedure you should follow the revert procedure from that original guide.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] jjjackson56:
It doesn't I already tested and can confirm that it doesn't. I updated my guide with instructions on how to revert and return to stock using this image.

That is what I thought but I wanted make sure since gingerbread is kind of like mac snow leopard where most of the improvements are "behind the scenes". I wasn't sure if there was some residual install that could affect the reinstall of the stock image.

Thanks "football" for providing the 2.2.1 stock image!
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
That matters when you're flashing a rom through recovery but this completely overwrites everything, making it a moot point.

I've tried several times to flash this through recovery and everytime I get this message E:Can't open /sdcard/PMD15IMG.zip (bad) I have no clue what that means but I can't open the zip to even see whats inside it..

I can not get the device to load the file.

I have change the file name to PD15IMG.zip and went into bootloader and it did not automaticly install. I made sure I didn't have PD15IMG.zip.zip. I also made sure it was in just the sd card, not in any directories. I also turned off fastboot.

Any help I would love to hear,

Luke
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
It will detect it and take a while to load it. Then it will ask you to press power to begin the update. Then DON'T TOUCH IT until the process is complete and it reboots on it's own.

Whatever you do, for the love of whatever, don't interrupt this process.

EDIT - begin this process from hboot, not fastboot, just to clarify.

mirror.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/caa....140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155771_signed.zip

1. rename file to pd15img.zip

2. place file on root of sdcard. This means sdcard/pd15img.zip. NOT IN ANY FOLDERS!

3. power off phone.

4. hold vol down + power until you get to a white screen.

5. wait for the phone to finish loading the update. notice the vertical progress bar on the right side of the screen.

6. press power (i think) to begin the update. DON'T TOUCH IT UNLESS YOU WANT TO BRICK YOUR DEVICE!

7. after patiently waiting and not touching it, your phone will eventually reboot. give it 10 minutes at least.

8. your phone should reboot into the oem 2.2.1 Sense and ask you to set it up, just like when you first bought the phone.

9. press the "thank you" button for this post. :D

[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
This will overwrite EVERYTHING. Hboot, radio, rom, etc. As long as you're s-off and you haven't run gfree, flash this through hboot and it will wipe out everything else and return your phone to totally stock. Very convenient.

If you have run gfree, reverse that before flashing this.

I actually use the full site even on my phone. The app irritates me. But seriously, read the whole thread, I think I've given complete instructions at least two or three times already.

KERNEL:	2.6.32.21-g899d047 (gcc 4.4.0)

CPU TYPE:	MSM7X30/ARMv7

The Above info is what is on the phone now after i unrooted my phone

The method use to do so is first you download the

1.[ROM]Glacier_TMOUS_1.17.531.2_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.0 3.02.26_M_release (PD15IMG.zip)

2. Make sure your Battery is full charged

3. Rename to PD15IMG.zip then Copy The file Named : PD15IMG.zip to the SDCARD of the phone, do not unzip this file or put this file in a folder just as is, copy it to the sdcard.

4.Go to >>> settings on the phone then >>> Applications >>>> and untick/Remove the Fast boot opition

5. Take out the battery of the phone

6. Put the battery back in

7. Press Volume Down Button and Power Button together

and just watch and read the instructions on the phone as it detects the file PD15IMG.zip
[myTouch 4G Android Development] shortskoolbus:
Okay so this is probably answered already but i'm still not very clear..

So flashing this returns the phone to 100% stock out of box state.

Meaning that

1) ROM is restored

2) Recovery is restored

3) HBOOT is the factory version

4) Phone will be unrooted

5) S-ON

Is this correct? Sorry if this question is stupid, but i try to piece all the different pieces together but if this is just one simple flash to bring it 100% back to factory then that is great.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
You are correct except for number 5. You will be S-ON after the flash. Just try it, it's super easy and you can always re-root if you want.

Has anyone been able to root after using this?

I used this to return my phone to stock and s-on and it worked great. I exchanged my phone becuase of dust under the screen. I tried to root on the new phone but I was unable to. I decided to flash this and then try to root again and still no root and s-off. There is a post for the G2 that says these "official" roms can possibly block re-rooting after flashing an updated official rom. Has anyone else experienced this?

I had no problems rooting my original mt4g. Rooting skills are not the issue. I have rooted every t-mobile android phone that has been released in the US with the help of the instructions found in the xda Forums.

[myTouch 4G Android Development] :
Anything that'll do the job is good to me. I've only tried gorillas and evils. I hear good about glacier, but the changelog says it has two issues, and I wont flash ROMs that aren't 100% working . Its an ocd thing. Plus I rather like my phone being stock. Only reasons I root is for backups, cache cleaner, and overclock. Maybe a few other reasons, but they're only notable when they appear.

Edit: Found it on page three, thanks for the heads up!

You do this through HBOOT, not recovery.

Rename file to pd15img.zip and put on root of sdcard.

Power off phone.

Pull battery.

Hold vol down + power until you get to a white screen.

Follow on-screen instructions until it reboots back into stock rom.

No point. This file overwrites it all anyway.

The stock post-OTA baseband radio is 12.28b.60.140eU_26.0 3.02.26_M according to my girlfriends stock post-OTA Android 2.2.1 1.17.531.2 mytouch 4G. While your quick response is appreciated, it in no way answers my question...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Pretty sure it's the same thing. I think when you flash the update it will show up the same way on the phone.
[myTouch 4G Android Development] darinmc:
Cool, I've just had issues with my radio being finicky with AOSP ROMs, trying to track down any kind of solution, in this case a possible baseband change, but if it's the same thing I'm back at square one. I know other phones have improved reception/data by flashing radios...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Current rooting methods don't touch the radio and we're on the most recent radio, so I don't know what to tell you. Maybe unroot and call T-mobile and tell them your reception just plain sucks and you think there's something wrong with the phone.

That's because when you have radio s-off that can't be reverted with PD15IMG. You can go follow his total unroot meth to truly revert back with radio s-on with cid changed thus giving you factory settings.

My linpak scores are around 39, quadrant around 1700, and smart bench around 700 and 1100 for productivity and gaming, respectively. Could anyone report their scores after flashing this to see if they are close to mine?I'm afraid my phone may be messed up from continuous over clocking so I'm trying to find out whether I should try to get a warranty replacement.

I am using this method right now and have been looking at the T-Mobile myTouch4G boot screen for the last few minutes after starting the update. Is that normal? Is it just supposed to sit on that screen for a while or should I be seeing something else?
[myTouch 4G Android Development] Phateless:
Yeah it takes awhile...
[myTouch 4G Android Development] lednib:
I am stuck. I recently had a problem after receiving the latest cwm recovery version while on cm 37. While it seemed like the update to cwm recovery worked at the time - I changed some settings on the phone, changing the notification bar to the bottom of the screen - it eventually had trouble with the android frameworks crashing and then some bootlooping before I rebooted and tried to reflash nightly 37. After that, I was stuck with nothing but hboot.

So far my attempts to get past the T-Mo Mytough 4g splash screen have failed. All I can get into is hboot now and while I can run various fastboot commands successfully while the phone is connected to the computer, I still cannot get into recovery and I cannot boot into any rom.

At this point, I've tried:

-putting the PD15IMG.zip file on the root of a new sdcard and launching into fastboot. I get to the point where it asks me if I'd like to update now. I press UP on the vol rocker. It very quickly flashes the word "updating" for less than a second, then, "OK" for less than a second, then jumps to the splash screen indefinitely. I've let it sit on that screen for well over an hour and it never goes anywhere.

-using the factory reset option through the bootloader. Same result - it sits indefinitely on the splash screen.

-using the manual nandroid restore process through fastboot using an backup by manually fastboot flashing the system and recovery images to no avail.

-reflashing the latest cwm recovery with "fastboot flash recovery recover-clockwork-3.0.2.4-glacier.img" but still cannot get into recovery.

I DO have the engineering bootloader.

It's been suggested that I try to get a lolcat but ADB does not work, only fastboot.

Not sure what else to try and wanted to see if anyone else had some other suggestions. There has to be something I'm overlooking.

Thank you.
