I have mine. I'll PM you sometime tomorrow evening most likely. Pacific time.
Whoops. I thought I had it. I have backup of RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver which I used to root. Probably not much help then.

Thanks for looking bud... Anyone else?

To the best of my knowledge, there can be no nandroid backup of the Telus 1.5 ROM, as we needed root to run nandroid, and we needed to flash a non-Telus ROM in order to get root.

Thats true but last time I did restore to my first rooted ROM after rooting my Hero I received an update from Telus. I would love to have it back so my wife could use the 2.1 update that Telus provides.
Oh well. Thanks guys!

2 weeks ago I rooted my buddy's Hero (OS 1.5) using Androot and I COULD have taken a nandroid backup but didn't... sorry! Had you made your request back then I'd hook you up right now.
Like I said in the PM, I'll try to get another 1.5 Hero from a work colleague who doesn't even use his Hero anymore.
There still is faint hope!

Ah ha! I knew there was a reason why I didn't have a 1.5 backup... just couldn't quite remember why.
Thanks for jogging my shotty memory!

[Q] telus 2.1 update

How to update my rooted telus hero running 2.2 . I would like to try telus 2.1 update to see if it will be a little more stable.Do i have go back to 1.5 or 2.1.Thanks Brian
You would need to revert back to your original Nandroid back up of the Telus 1.5 ROM you had when you first rooted your phone. Then the update would be offered automatically from Telus.
I've been looking around the forums to find a copy of the Telus 1.5 ROM (Nandroid) so I too could try the 2.1 update from Telus! Haven't found one yet, unless you have yours???
Have you guys seen the RUU posted here:

Its a ROM from China...

There are no Telus 1.5 NANDroid backups in existence, as we had to flash a non-Telus ROM in order to root our phones, and thus gain the ability to run NANDroid.

I flashed it, it was a bit of a hassle but I am loving it. The hardest part was loading it over the custom recovery utility. The only con I have noticed in the 3+ days I've been using it are that the battery life isnt spectacular.

I hear you! The last couple of "newest" radios (including this one) seem to use more juice. However, signal strength is better in places where it sucked before.

Why the hell didn't I try to restore my Nandroid backup done in Bootstrap ? I thought, "nah, I'm wasting my time, it's 2 different recoveries". Glad to see I was wrong. It's a long winded process but since nobody offers further P-Roms or any 2nd-init one, our only option for a while.
Cool beans.
Step 4 is what I missed, good thinking there Loki!

The reason I put bootstrap in step 4 was so you didn't have to install it later and to also provide a fall back on a fresh restore.
So how you liking the MoPho? I know I made a few people mad in the Evo community when I switched but consider what the MoPho can do out of the box was there any doubt where I'd end up?
Awesome! Thanks for the instructions.

I based it off of the unroot/root testing method I used when I was testing and providing analysis for teamwin and orrbemas on the Evo. I was hoping the original exploit I used for the Evo would work for Juggs' unlock but it didn't. I know it's not pretty and will most likely require that you repeat it for every custom ROM install but it will do for now.
Awesome,now I can get my 4g back to tether the iPad.
I registered just to say thanks! You guys do amazing work around here, been reading for a long time. This worked perfectly!
is this with an unlocked bootloader? and can i still use caulkins other recovery after?

The short version is:
root
unlock bootloader
install recovery
install custom ROM
backup custom ROM
lock bootloader
root
restore custom ROM
enjoy 4G
Until there is a fix for unlocked 4g this is the only way to use run custom ROMs and still retain 4G. Every time you want to flash a ROM via recovery you need to repeat the steps.
Nice! I'll test this myself after work and add to the guide! Good job man!!

Thanks in will definitely do it as soon as I can. Losing 4g isn't an option since I'm lucky to live in a 4g city (Kansas City)

Im currently updated to the newest software update for the mopho and it's rooted. Is there anyway I can do all of this without the use of a computer. I know its alot to ask for.

I don't get Motorola devices. Why do we have to run bootstrap instead of just going into the custom recovery and backing up the rom there?

Bootstrap isn't needed til after the relock and root so you have a rooted stock backup and the ability to restore the custom ROM.

But why couldn't I do the same thing only getting through CWM without having to use bootstrap? I must be missing something lol.

After step 5 CWM is no longer on the phone so you can't backup/restore using CWM only bootstrap. Also, restoring the custom ROM through bootstrap on a rooted but LOCKED phone is the only way to retain 4G at this moment.

Ok, I see. Some of these things were going through my head (Mostly what happens to the recovery when re-installing the Moto rom) but I was trying to not give myself a headache lol.

[Q] (q)deleted stock recovery

Hey guys I'm new to this phone and a few days ago I rooted it using the hasoon2000 tool and flashed a speedrom7.8 on it.
While flashing it, I made a recovery of my stock rom. After a while of playing around with astro,I accidentally deleted the backup as mentioned before. Will this have any adverse effects in the future?
Thank you
There are stock ruus in the amaze bible if you want to go back. I don't see why you would want to though.just personal opinion though.
oh i see, i probably will not need it unless i want to revert to the stock rom right?

You are right. Plus if for some reason you want to go stock you can always chk the Amaze Bible and grab it there.

You should be able to load into recovery using twrp and restore from the nandroid.

so i would just drop the zip file on my phone? And im trying to get rid of TWRP. Id rather just be bone stock like it was the second I pulled it outta the box until a good custom rom comes out and i can get rid of all the damn AT&T bloatware and the tethering block.

You need TWRP to fix your problem so whatever you do, don't remove if before you are up and running. It won't hurt you to keep it on your phone though.

I'm not sure on this phone, but over at our team site XsMagical has some sort of one click thing that does it. It wipes everything clean and you start over.

You can't at the moment. Normally, you just flash the stock recovery or flash an RUU. However, that isn't available.
ATT RUU

He or whoever makes one gets my donation! Can only imagine a system optimized bloatware free rom for the ATT version! The factory rom is already blazing fast and already deleted all bloatware with rom toolkit! Can only imagine.....

If he has AT&T files, i wonder if hes considering making a Maximus+ Rom for the ATT HOX+ last i saw he said he wasnt sure about it. Now my hopes are up...
I seem to bit a bit confused. I thought the RUU was basically the stom rom image, which ive been told is wrong. can anyone clear up what exactly the RUU is? (total noob question im sure)
It's more then just a stock Rom it's the recovery and everything else including radio hboot ect.

Rooted HTC ONE on 4.1.2, Easiest way to 4.2.2

Please excuse my noobish question, but my HTC ONE is currently rooted on 4.1.2 and I am wondering what is the easiest method to update it to 4.2.2 without having to use OTA, which I can't anyways.
Thanks!
Flash a Rom that is 4.2.2. I think the update is barely starting to roll out internationally and might be awhile until ATT gets it.

In addition to just rooting the phone, you need to unlock the bootloader, flash a different recovery and then flash a ROM that uses 4.2.2. I prefer ARHD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023
This ROM gives you 4.2.2 with full sense 5.0 experience without all the bloatware that your carrier most likely installed on your phone. :good:

Would I be able to recover my apps and settings via Titanium backup or will I have to redo everything again......my guess is that i will have to redo everything b/c it is a new ROM.

Sorry I don't have a solid answer for you because as soon as I got my phone, I installed ARHD prior to installing anything on my phone. My guess is YES you will need to redo everything.
I'm currently running the GE gtc one ROM. If you want that.

If say use helium to back it up while you aren't rooted and after that titanium works better, that's what I did anyway
