so just to know say if i want to try a new rom or theme what process will i have to go through in order to do that? and i thought all i had to do to go to stock was to install the nandroid backup then unroot with z4root...guess i thought wrong?

 

[furbearingmammal]

The nandroid might not get rid of the theme, but that's another method. I know things work a little differently with the D2 and X than they did with the D1.

 

[reyrey2435]

darn i think im going to have to start a new thread on here and find out lol by the way i truly appreciate your help and input thank u

 

[spaz33g]

To get back to stock all you have to do is restore that pre rom nandroid and unroot. Now if you want to flash a new rom or theme you can do it right over your current setup. A new rom will get rid of all signs of squidly but a new theme over the nextheme may leave a few pieces of that theme behind.

oh ok so nandroid is a rom itself then? thats all i did if u have time to look u have helped me all the way from the start of this thread and im so very thankful for your patience and help im just semi new to all this stuff

 

[spaz33g]

Restoring That nandroid should get you to the exact place you were when you made it so essentially yeah its like a stock rom.

[reyrey2435]

oh thats great to know i just read and see a lot of different things and hear so much info about rooting and unrooting i get overwhelmed and confused on what and what not to do.

 

[furbearingmammal]

Patience is what we do here. If we didn't have any we wouldn't have so many ulcers.

Err...

We're nice folks. We really don't mind helping.

Hey, spazz, off topic but it saves me a PM. How do you get stock recovery on a D2 someone "accidentally" on purpose flased CW recovery onto? Factory reset or is it SBF time?

 

[spaz33g]

Factory reset may get rid of it temporarily but for permanence I think I have a list of scripts to run and/or files to delete. I'll dig it up and pm you... although I thought I got it from someone who got it from you

[furbearingmammal]

Should I just tell them to SBF it? I soooo want to.

Thanks, spazz!

And I now return you from your irregularly-scheduled threadjack.
