if youve rooted with revolutionary,or flashed shadowmites hard patched permanent hboot,youll need to use fastboot to reflash the overwriteable 1.04.2000 eng hboot first.

you have to enter a couple of commands in fastboot to "unlock" the pemrnanent hboot,and then flash a new one. i have a step by step here. just follow the how to unroot guide

So Ok heres what all I did.. I was having trouble with my radios. auto switching from 3g to 4g So I figured somehow or another I probably messed something up.

So I figured lets go back to stock.

So My bootloader shows

S-OFF (I didnt do step 2 of the OP Post)
HBOOT-1.04.2000
Radio 1.39.00.0627r
Feb 23, 2011

And Settings show

Baseband 1.39.00.0627r, 0.01.69.0625r

Kernel 2.6.32.21-g0606a3a
April 14th 2011

build 1.70.605.0 CL343953

Software
1.70.605.0

PRL 1.41_002, 1.64_002

PRL 15061

So by looking at those numbers.. Am I Pretty much Stock? Other than being S-OFF? Radios included?

And if I did need to goto S-ON i can just load the other part and get S-ON or no?

Also when Gingerbread OTA hits? How does this effect me? Or does it?

i personally would not trust the auto unroot. if you have the 1.04.2000 eng hboot,id just flash an RUU. either flash shipping firmware(1.12.605.6) flash the files in this thread,or flash the mr2 files i have here.

flashing mr1 or shipping firmware (maybe mr2) will require you OTA to current firmware.

if you want to unroot and be done,no OTA,then use the mr2 files. tho i guess you still may OTA to GB :gasp:

1)PG05IMG_1.70.605.0_nohboot.zip
md5: c2c61df561e8a74cd103f0b9b89d81d6
and
2)PG05IMG_hboot_only_1.04.0000
md5: 584a4cdc12658835cb2a7885e8e44fd2

if youve rooted with revolutionary,or flashed shadowmites hard patched permanent hboot,youll need to use fastboot to reflash the overwriteable 1.04.2000 eng hboot first.

then,same as the original directions.
1) flash #1(no hboot) first.

2) flash #2(hboot only) ONLY AFTER succesfully flashing #1.
Ok Im a noob I dont understand what it means about fastboot

When im going to flash the mr1 no hboot it keeps telling me installation aborted. Did anyone else have this problem? And do I need to wipe my cache and all of that stuff before i flash?
You're flashing in recovery,wich is incorrect. Rename PG05IMG and flash in hboot.

if you rooted with revolutionary,just flash the mr2 RUU. if you rooted the old way,use either the mr1 files here(and let it ota afterward) or use the mr2 files on android forum. advantage of that is when youre done,your done,no OTA.

if you rooted via revolutionary,id reccomend leaving their hboot in place. it wont stop you from getting OTAs,is good piece of mind if you ever may want to root or roll back firmware. since flashing a new bootloader can be a potentially dangerous operation if youre not careful,id recomend leaving it in place unless you absolutely need to remove it for a warranty claim.
