Accidentally Updated After Rooting - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I accidentally updated to Gingerbread on my Thunderbolt, and I forgot I rooted my phone, by the time I remembered it already had a blue android and an explaimation mark. So I did some random crap, and probley made it worse.
First I did the vol down power thing went to factory reset it loaded CWM v4.0.1.4
I wiped cache patition
Dalvick cache
and Battery stats
then I wiped data/factory reset
It loaded like it was brand new everything seemed fine till I updated and did same thing so I wiped the data again and now it keeps auto updating so I have to keep my internet off
and it's annoying as crap
I'm a noob so I don't understand stuff
should I go ahead with this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1009423
I couldn't understand it and if your not rooted why would you unroot I don't get that part...
Do I still have root?
What does flash exactly mean?

Should I upgrade to gingerbread any way

Download a customer rom, put it on your sd card and flash it in CWM. I'm running BAMF forever and like it. There are plenty of roms to choose from. This should stop the update. After running the rom if you decide you like stock better you can flash the stock rom back and take the update. You will loose root.

Pull the update off the SD. It will stop flashing it

I had a friend who's phone auto updated and is stuck on the htc boot screen. Will deleting the update off the sd card work also? Her phone is not rooted, just hoping to save her from having to replace it.
And how do you forget you rooted your phone?

If pulling the update off the sd what do i need to look for

i have a similar problem
my wifes phone is rooted though. it had a stock rom and she autoupdated
now i can only go to recovery mode.
is there a way to fix this and save the stuff on her phone

1) The phone will not boot all the way up?
2) is the recovery stock or CWM?
3) do you have a recent back up made?
4) do you have s-off?

1. it boots up all the way, turns off after 10-20s each time, regardless of what action i'm taking
2. cwm recovery
3. no backups recent or not
4. i don't know if i 'have it' but when i load hboot the status is 's-off'

Does it crash or shut off? Maybe a hardware problem?

It powers down the normal way.

If you clear the cache, the shutdowns will stop.
But the OTA will download again, and in a few days you will have to repeat the process.
A custom ROM fixed me, but now the same thing poped up.
May go back to stock .... trying xdabolt, but in the process lost my data.

What am I looking for on the SD card to remove?

sounds like you still have s-off. Anything you are trying to save like app data is gone if you do not have a back up. I would down load a customer rom or even one of the rooted stock versions with the latest OTA and flash that with CWM recovery. Be sure to clear cache and dalvick wipe first when you flash it. There are RUU you could use to return it to stock, but you will lose root. I'm running BAMF forever 1.0.9 and like it. Play around with some roms and if you don't like them use a RUU to restore you back to stock. Most important is make sure you read up on things first.

Hey I endded up just unrooting using this video
(can't show video url)
(Search how to unroot on youtube you should see it by nat3mil and I think that's only if you have revolutionary)
and I guess the video would work too.
If you restored to factory settings using power and vol down buttons and wiped the data in the revolutionary thing, and then followed the video...
phones working now and the video's idiot-proof
just posting this if anyone else needded to unroot

You would think but I have seen people who after being on here a year still don't know the difference between flashing something in ROM manager or recovery.

unrooting is good and all, but if that happens again, just look around for the newest ruu and find a rooted version. most ruu get rooted that day... heck i had 2.11.605.5 rooted b4 verizon released it (the 2nd leak, the one WITH working vm notifications) thanks to eris of course. then you'd be up to date, stock, rooted... all you'd have to do is wipe dalvik, cache, and system... keep the data (if coming from sense 2.1 rom) and you'd be good.
i don't mess with sense 2.1/3.0 hybrid or 3.0 roms anymore, for this very reason. a ton of incompatibilities between the roms and framework, causing you to have to wipe data when switching... what a pita! i haven't wiped data in months. keep the data always to make life easier...
if you have problems, use clockwork's "fix permissions" and reboot. problem not solved? then retry rom installation WIPING EVERYTHING, then at least you tried to keep your stuff. titanium backup is great for backing up apps + data, so you can import the data back when you're stable on the new rom... just restore the apps + data for the necessary apps, and app only for the stuff that doesn't mnatter... never restore system apps + data for roms with severely different basebands or from completely different roms. unrooting won't be necessary next time

I had my phone half rooted, OTA came and I selected to defer, well I forgot and now I have the security warning.I tried flashing through the bootloader on my SD card the stock file and I still have the security warning. I use my phone as my internet source so it's been a big PITA. The phone starts, goes to 1x, then 4G, then restarts over and over.
Won't load into recovery, won't factory reset, using HBOOT USB and the command prompt the device isn't recognized.
Right now its as follows:
S-ON

1.16.0223r

If the phones rooted you can prolly get into recovery VIA hboot.
If its not rooted you can prolly find a ota ruu and flash it in hboot. U can do that if its rooted too but ull lose root. Or if its a locked s off there's methods to roll back to factory and turn s on. And yes delete the orig update off the card

I had the same question when I started out. I'll make it easy on you.
Go into recovery, use the volume buttons to toggle up and down. Go to wipe data / factory reset. Select it and then confirm it. Then go to wipe cache partition and do the same. Then go to advanced and select wipe davlik. THAT IS HOW TO WIPE. This is recommended to do before flashing a new ROM.
Can't get past the update

That's easy to get past. Just load a PGIMG05.zip file onto the ROOT of your SD card. ROOT means without being in any folders. If you're on BAMF 3.0 then you're on Gingerbread. So find the RUU file for unsigned Gingerbread RUU and place it on the ROOT. Then do an Hboot. Which is Power down and volume up at the same time when the phone is off. Make sure you don't have any PGIMG05 files on the ROOT. You probably do because you rooted your phone. If you don't you could end up with S back on.
**You did flash the correct Gingerbread radio...right?
**I have no clue where the Gingerbread RUU is. If you find it, please post it. It will be a fairly large file. Probably around 300mb+
EDIT:
I'm sorry but the RUU for Gingerbread isn't out yet. Try Hbooting the MR1 then Hboot the MR2 Radio RUU which is 2.3.4 base.
Link to Jcase radio thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997724&highlight=RUU
I'm pretty sure, you'll need to flash the "PG05IMG_Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.13.605.7_Radio_1.16.00.0402w_NV_8k_1.41_9k_1.64_release_182727_signed.zip" on that page which should be the last link.
Take your SD Card out, put in a reader or another Android phone and delete the radio file from it.

I've had this problem too and I've wiped and reflashed from scratch to fix it.
But this happens to all my backups, making nandroid backups virtually useless to me now. Anybody know why this happens? I've never had a problem like this before and it started after trying to restore from the new CM7 back to bamf 2.1....
A common solution would be to backup the SD Card and reformat it in Clockwork or with SDFormatter.. NOT IN WINDOWS.
When the house gets dirty, you have to clean it.

I have tried to format/system and every other piece of advice i can find I still cant get any nandroids to restore... Any ideas?
I have search every possible thread regarding restoring a nandroid and have tried every possible fix... my only solution, which DID WORK, was to format/system, do a full wipe of all three, and then flash the original zip, I cant use any nandroids at all!!! if any one know why please tell me how to restore a nandroid for future use. thanks
format did not work for me either.
restores worked for me at when i came off of Synergy's ROM back to bamf3.0, but coming outta CM7 to bamf 3.0 busted it again...very strange.

I am using th3orys inj3ct rom and just wanted to see what Synergy was all about, when I wasn't impressed i tried to restore my nandroid (which i made right before i flashed synergy) and that is when all the trouble started... i tried everything that I know of and just had to reflash the original ROM and start from scratch, sux but at least my phone is back on.
I had this issue over the weekend. However I did do a restore prior to getting the error... I was texting my gf, and all of a sudden my screen wouldn't turn on... Pulled the battery and when i booted up I kept getting the error.
I had a PG05IMG.zip on my SD card so if I tried to boot to recovery from boot menu it wouldn't let me.
I took my SD card and plugged it into a PC using an adapter. Deleted the PG05IMG.zip and then booted to recovery. Restored my latest backup (3 days old) and everything worked.

What the hell.. this same thing happened to me last night - never had this happen before.

[Q] Thunderbolt help! Hanging at HTC logo, but can access clockwork recovery

Yesterday I unplugged my phone and it wouldn't start. Had to take out battery and SD card to get it to eventually start, but it hung on the HTC white screen.
I can access the clockwork recovery screen, and have even been able to load previous backups and new roms to see if anything will work, but it won't let me get past that white HTC screen.
I feel like I'm close because I can still access the recovery menu, but something's up. So I have a few questions that if anyone can answer I will appreciate more than you know.
1) Is there a way to unroot my phone from the recovery menu/PC access so I can get it replaced by Verizon if it is a hardware problem? I know, I know, I did it to myself, but if there's a way out, I'll take it.
2) What are RUU files and would they somehow fix this? I am not against unrooting and going back to stock, especially after this scare.
3) As of now I have DasBampf 1.8.6 and MR2 radio on the phone. Will the RUU remove these and flash a whole new Radio/ROM? Again, I know I'm an idiot, but I need help. Help me Obi Wan!
4) I'll check back if anyone needs more info. BTW, the phone only boots into recovery *power+down volume* Won't turn on manually. I've tried another SD card, I've tried other ROMS. I have NOT tried any new radios yet, as I'm scared to accidentally brick it.
Thanks in advance.
go into bootloader (when it's off hold power button and volume down until white screen pops up) wait for it to check your sd card, then click wipe data. it should boot up after its done wiping the data, if not you might have to select reboot in recovery.
RUU update.
I flashed the 2.11.605.5 build of the new RUU. It started out fine, and then it failed at user data, system, and one other. Now it's still in the same hanging screen. What the hell!?
Please help me before I **** this thing up even more.
OTA updates are the DEVIL!!!!!! You people need to block them and stop installing the unrooted version while you are rooted with no reguard to your phones safety. If you are rooted install the rooted version of the OTA.
If I helped please use the thank you button and donate a free account to my dropbox http://db.tt/uDc7iw7x
I didn't read the op but if its hanging on htc screen with new ota try flashing the radio the new ota has or an older one. Had that issue with my EVO.
The wrong radio will cause your phone to never pass htc screen.

Haven't tried anything new yet, but besides one time this morning, I can't even get to the bootloader. Won't turn on, even with a spare charged working battery. Time to call Verizon and maybe eat the payment, methinks.
Update for anyone interested.
I got onto IRC and contacted Jcase, who had me flash a new RUU, which seemed to fix the problem.
HOWEVER, my phone is still FUBAR, as it shuts off periodically and will not allow me to call out. I managed to go through the entire unroot process and got my phone back to original status. I have a replacement coming from Verizon soon and although I think it's a hardware problem with my phone, I don't think I'll be rooting again anytime before my warranty expires. Thanks for all the help everyone.

When i go into recovery 4ext recovery touch is whats available, current rom:unknown. Im fairly new so i would greatly appreciate any help, I like this phone alot and would hate to use something else. I dont care if after everything is said and done its still rooted or not. I have my personal info still on my card and a backup on my computer so im safe on that and dont care if i lose everything on the phone. Also i did not try to do the ota update.
Because you wiped all your data to ahead and wipe cache and dalvik cache and system. Then flash another rom.

If you dont me asking, is there a step process you can suggest or point me to? Idk how to flash the rom and am new to this scene.
When flashing a rom. Wipe caches (cache and dalvik cache), wipe data (most of the time I recommend doing this), and system/boot partitions. Then after wiping all of those choose the option to flash a rom( I haven't used clockworkmod recovery in ages and I don't remember what they list that option as). When the installation is completed reboot and if all goes well you should be running a custom rom of your choosing. I would suggest you ditch cwm for 4ext recovery just as soon as you can. Cwm has some unusual bugs where the caches may not be properly wiped and your rom won't boot because of this.

I know back in the EVO days of no 4EXT Virus had a SuperWipe. It would wipe everything 3 times in CWM. If you are persistent to keep CWM you might want to try that... I think I have it somewhere I can make compatible for the Thunderbolt. But it is highly recommended to use 4EXT instead.
I had it at one point too but wiping 3x or 10x just to flash a rom is ridiculous.

Help! Stuck at Revolutionary Caution Splash Screen

So I woke up this morning and I noticed a little blue android man standing next to a caution symbol on my phone screen. I was stock rooted before this happened. I believe the recent update went ahead and updated itself while I was sleeping. Can someone help me get my phone back to stock root? If I press the menu button, it brings me to the Revolutionary CWM v4.0.1.4 screen where I have the options to "reboot system now", "apply sdcard:update.zip"... etc. I'm not really good with Revolutionary so before I do anything I would like the opinions and suggestions of others who are more experienced. Obviously I'd like to avoid a factory reset as much as possible. Thanks!
You have to get the stock ruu 2.11.605.5 and re flash it. It will remove root unfortunately because .9 is not rootable yet.
Flash back to non root stock by putting the ruu i mentioned above on your memory card (not in any folders) and rename it to PG05IMG then power off the phone.
Hold power and volume down for a few seconds and the phone will go to the Hboot screen, it will find the PG file and update itself. Once its all done, reroot with revolutionary and then go into the developement section here and get the rooted version of the 2.11.605.9 ruu file and just flash that in recovery.
You will have to flash the new radios as well. They have to be renamed to the same name I posted above and flashed the same way thru the Hboot screen
So even if I were to back up with My Backup Pro, I wouldn't be able to recover all my data, apk's, photos etc. because I wouldn't be able to root on the latest update, correct?
Try wiping cache and rebooting before you flash an RUU, lose root and your data. If it bootloops or is still otherwise non functioning THEN you will have to RUU it.

Your photo and apps should be backed up on your sd card. your setup will be wiped but all the stuff on the sd card will be fine. Just have to reinstall
as for what the post about wiping and rebooting, that will not help unfortunately because the update deletes root. If you want to get back to root, you have to reinstall.

[Q] Cant get past setup accounts

Hi....
Rooted my phone. Stock 2.3.4. Installed Rom Toolkit Pro. Froze some apps I thought I didnt need and I guess that included the contacts.apk and odex. Thought I had found them and installed them in the system/app but I was wrong. Went back into toolkit and saw a bunch of new system apps in Spanish and some other things in odd code. Decided to do a factory reset which I am now realizing was a bad idea. Now I boot the phone and all is pretty normal until I get to Add Accounts in the set up. Com.motorola.setup keeps fcing and i cant get past it. I jist need my phone back to functioning order. I cant use the market bit can look and replying to INcoming texts. My bf bought me this phone and he os ready to rip my head off. Any any help is appreciated.
More info
I can interact with the phone via voice command/search but have no access to apps or launcher. At this rate I dont care aboit root or anything...would downloading a copy of a stock rom and doing install update by sd calrd via android recovery work?
If your bootloader is locked install bootstrap recovery then in bootstrap recovery format system, data and cache then boot the phone into rsd lite protocol and flash one of the sbf's through rsd lite to return to stock. You will loose root but thats easy enough to get back.
Flashing a stock rom through bootstrap should also do the trick just remember to format the system data and cache partitions before flashing for best results.

No data after ADB Sideload

Lost data after Beast 4.3 / or to sideloading and dirty-installing the M7 rom. Flashing different roms/radios made no difference.
SOLUTION TO DATA LOSS:
LakerStar25 said:
Just a heads up to anyone that's on the Verizon version having extreme data loss. If you messed with your apn it could have screwed something up were you might need to run the RUU to fix. It happened to me and micromod. So if that has happened and have tried to get data back and nothing has worked you will need to
1. Nandroid then install the pre ota hboot
2. Relock
3. Backup internal memory then Run RUU
4. After RUU finishes do a factory reset.
5. Reboot and data should be back.
6. Unlock if desired or just install ENG hboot and install recovery and flash your nandroid and good to go.

Was running Newt's M7, and flashed beast 4.1 fine, wanted to try flashing beast 4.3
After flash it began to boot-loop and ( foolishly ) without a backup I had to use ADB sideload to reflash M7. That worked, but now I have no data, it won't detect the sim card. Tried reflashing the radios+hboot ( yes unlocked and S-off ) to no avail.
Backed up to a stock rom made after S-off but that also doesn't have data ( and keeps yelling "droid" every 10 seconds ).

at this point I would suggest going back and read the flashing your recovery. Then after you do that go back in and try and flash kernel again.seems like all your problems are caused by bad last of the kernel.

SOLUTION TO DATA LOSS:

Just a heads up to anyone that's on the Verizon version having extreme data loss. If you messed with your apn it could have screwed something up were you might need to run the RUU to fix. It happened to me and micromod. So if that has happened and have tried to get data back and nothing has worked you will need to
1. Nandroid then install the pre ota hboot
2. Relock
3. Backup internal memory then Run RUU
4. After RUU finishes do a factory reset.
5. Reboot and data should be back.
6. Unlock if desired or just install ENG hboot and install recovery and flash your nandroid and good to go.

I have spent the whole day flashing and trying to get my data back. I am so happy that LakerStar took the time to write out those steps. After flashing RUU there was still no data, but factory reset afterwards did the trick!
