Any idea where I can get the AT&T Stock Rom so I can go back to stock?
From the nandroid backup that you made of your stock rom before flashing something else.

I often wonder why people don't make a backup of the stock ROM when they originally unlocked your device. That's the first thing I ever do.

And my psa thread got locked. See Hasson says nothing about making a nandroid in his all in one kit thread.
My nandroid backup has saved my ass twice.

Hi, I'm currently using the latest ClockworkMod as my recovery. I've never had any problem with it (had it on my og evo as well), but I'm hearing a lot of great things about twrp recovery, so I'd like to make the switch. I'm all clear on most of the process, but is it correct that I'll need to make new nandroid backups? If so, should I delete my cwm nands? How would I go about doing that? And am I correct that I'd need to revert to my stock (first) nandroid, flash the new recovery from there, make a new twrp nandroid, and then go back to cm7? Just want to be sure, as I know that nandroids are a lifeline and I don't want to screw anything up. Thanks in advance!

yes, on your sdcard/clockworkmod/backups

no, you can just make a nand with the new recovery of your current setup, no need to revert

Sounds good. What to do though if I need to ever go back to stock rom? (Unlikely anyhow). Will I be able to find a stock rooted rom in the dev forums?

If u want to go back to cwm to restore an old nandroid just dl rom manager from market and reflash cwm it will flash over Twrp and then u can use your cwm nandroids.

does anyone have a nandroid backup of the stock rom that cam with evo 3d
If you need stock unrooted, just download the RUU.

Just an fyi...flashing a nandroid from a different phone is highly unrecommended
Why don't u just download and flash the stock ROM in the dev section?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
because im unlocked with hboot 1.5 , so im afraid if i go back to stock, ill mess something up, ya know
You won't they have a stock rooted Rom in the Dev section. Besides ppl will be giving away their personal info they do that.
Not if all wiping was done, then did nandroid,i usually make a nandroid after a data wipe cuz its cleaner, so i was wondering if anyone rooted, factory reset then did nandroid....to give out to dev sectin....someone should do this with stock rom

I am a serial crack flasher and had a question. If I install a rom and do a Android backup can I restore a previous backup of a different from or do I need to do the whole wipe/restore thing. I wanted to ask cause I know sometimes u need to flash a boot img etc.

Nand backup will restore to exactly what was running when it was saved.
Unless that rom he went to had the ability to use a diff kernel right? In that case he'd have to flash his old boot.img to get the original kernel back.. This seems to be one of the biggest reoccuring problems/questions on these threads. Everyone is so used to bringing back their nandroids to full 100% of where they were before, but that is not the case in the current state of s-on only.. I'm very glad we've already come so far but I think there is still a lot of confusion about rom/kernel flashing in particular how it relates to restoring a nandroid.

yes, kernel would need to be flashed seperately..
I suggest using CleanFLASH by scrosler it works great!!

I made a backup of my HTC EVO LTE Stock ROM in TWRP, I flashed CMX, now I want to go back to Stock, so I went to TWRP>Install, I can see my backup folder under /sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/name of backup.. but I when I select the folder it does not give me the option to Install it. It just opens as an empty folder. I did notice the folder is not in a .zip format. Is this the reason why? Did I miss something during the back up process? And if so, how can I fix it? Is it as easy as just converting the regular folder into a .zip folder then try to install it this way?.. Please tell me not everything is lost, lol.. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

There should be a restore option on the main screen in twrp recovery. If you hit that it will allow you to choose what file you want to restore

Seconded. Choose "restore" to restore nandroid backups.

Need to Restore But Getting Black Screen
Okay so my situation is similiar to the OP.
I was running CM10 then a custom sense Rom.
I made an original backup, but when I restore it I get a black screen at boot.
Typically when I flash a Rom I have to fastboot flash the boot.img which is no biggie, but there's no boot.img that I can find in the twrp backup.
Might be just as easy to flash a stock Rom, but not sure exactly where to find one. Everything I've found is rooted or custom in some way.
Thanks in advance for any replies.

The ROM I'm trying to restore is the original state of my phone. Would this be a stock ROM with a versioning date of October 28th(the day I got my phone and made the backup), current stock ROMs, or launch stock ROMs. Basically will any boot.img work from a stock ROM?
I do see the boot sector being written during the restore process. There is a boot.something.win file in the backup folder for the backup. Can this be fastbooted? I'm a bit timid to try that, but thinking it may be worth a shot...

Thanks for the quick reply, QuickWizard is very fitting. I actually got it after I finished going my own route though.
I grew a pair and went with my got and I went ahead and flashed the boot.emmc.win from the twrp backup in flashboot. It successfully got me booted and logged into the phone. That said the stock rom is so crappy...
But, I was having issues on CM10 with MHL, on a "stock rom with goodies" I was having radio issues with the latest firmawares, so now it's back to my rooted stock backup and I'm doing the HTC System OTA update... Should be interesting what happens next...
Again thank you all with the quick replies!
Do I need to restore the ROM I made my nandriod from first? Or can I restore my previous nandriod off any ROM I'm currently using?
I'm sure this has had to been asked before, but maybe I'm using the xda search wrong.
Thanks

Just wipe in Aron Ra and then restore from your nandroid. I commonly jump from Rom to Rom, just make sure you wipe in between.
Yupyup your nandroid reverts you to whatever that particular nandroid saved..

Thanks guys. I'm not sure what is wrong with my phone. Clean ROM 4.3 was the only one that would work for me, until this morning. I finally got RAGE1.8 to work. All other ROMs would boot loop, including all Clean ROMs after 4.3. I had been reinstalling Clean ROM and then restoring the nandriod, I'm glad I can skip one step if I need to go back.
Make sure you wipe before you restore a nandroid. If you don't it could cause it to bootloop.
Also if you're s on it could be an issue with kernel compatibility

I am S on. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought loading the PH98IMG file in the bootloader was loading the kernel.
First, you really should S-Off, it will make it a whole lot easier, it will allow you to jump from Rom to Rom a lot easier. Be careful because some new roms call for the latest firmware to run correctly.

It has to be the ph file from the rom you are on
