I was wondering if I am completely stock... I ran this app on my phone that reverted my theme and brought me back to stock theme. I unrooted, I don't have sideloading anymore...
could there still be traces of rooot?
thanks!!
If you want to be sure, flash the 4.1.26 sbf.

Assuming we will get 2.2 eventually. I have a question. Im currently running the bionix 1.9.1 with the jacs uv/uc. I made a nandroid before I flashed it. When froyo rolls out do I need to revert back to my backup so I can get it? I know it wil be awhile but im just trying to get a game plan going. I dont want to wait to the last minute and be clueless. Thanks in advance.

I plan to flash back to stock with Odin. Clear it all out.
When you odin back to stock, it unroots correct?
Correct. I did this:

To my wife's phone when the OTA bricked it. Compared to other phones Ive read about - the Vibrant to way to easy to root. (or reroot)
When froyo begins rolling out there will be fully functional and complete 2.2 roms available for you to flash before you even get the update notification.
anyone else having this problem? I wanted to revert back to GingerBlur and flashed the phone back to 1.26 but can't root or run the GingerBlur Installer....
What made you think this was Development?
How can I flash back to factory rom and how? Is there a place I can download the factory Rom? If not can someone help me out here? I sure would appreciate any help from anyone thanks!
If you are on ATT 1.83 software then this CWM installer, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1042736, will take you back to deodexed stock files and remove any currently applied theme.
But if you are looking for completely stock, odexed files, you would be better off flashing an SBF. It depends on what you plan to do with the phone after putting the stock files back on really.

This is what you need. Will show you how to flash to 4.1.26, 4.1.57. or 4.1.83.
Depending on your version of stock, you will pick one to stop at. Personally, my phone was on 4.1.26 when I bought it, so that is stock to me.

Thanks alot both of you!
What I needed was what you posted CaelanT, I got my phone back to norm. Thanks for the help. ^^
Recently, I reflashed 1.26, rooted via gladroot, then updated via OTA to 1.57 then 1.83, retaining root both times. I immediately backed up my system via CWM. At that point, I was running stock, rooted 1.83, and did not download anything and did not change any settings.
My question is, if I want to uninstall a theme or gingerblur, or if I screw something up, would it be cleaner to re-flash 1.26 and re-do all the steps above, or will simply restoring from CWM put me in the exact same spot?
Thanks.
Nobody? I can't post in the development forum, otherwise I would have asked in Tenfar's thread.

I believe you can restore with CWM if you want to go back to the same point, but not if you want to restore apps and data to a later updated firmware revision.
I haven't tried this myself yet, but will the next time I clean off my phone for whatever reason............new "ROM" maybe. I up till now have been flashing back to 4.1.26 and then updating to keep everything clean.
So I've been running Gingerblur 4.5 on my Atrix for the better part of 4 months. I haven't been on in a while checking for updates but I see now that CyanogenMod is released.
The way I installed Gingerblur then was flashing this sbf file: OLYFR_U4_1.8.3_SIGNED_OLPSATTSPE_P013_HWolympus_1g_Service1FF.sbf
and then proceeded to root it and get Gingerblur working that way. I don't think I unlocked the bootloader due to Gingerblur not requiring it..
Do I need to re-flash that SBF back onto my phone and proceed from there?

It's not a do or die thing, I have been happily running Gingerblur but I'd like to use something new.
EDIT:
Obviously the phone is still in Froyo
I'm thinking about flashing back to the stock version and just OTA'ing up to current and then working from there. Any nay' sayers?
