Default [Q] Please... Can somebody help me to 'get rid of' Android on my phone...?

As the headline says: I want to remove, or go back to WM, but without deleting everything and go back to scratch... I have some appointments that I want to save, and that I don't have anywhere else... (I can't find them now that Android is running...)

Please, please help me...

(Could the software make my appointments disappear?

Can somebody see if these software information is 'correct':
OS Version
5.2.23138
Manila version
2.5.20183025.0
ROM version
18.Sep.2010 WWE
Radio version
2.07.51.22_2
Protocol version
15.32.50.07U

you've posted in four threads that you can't get back to windows. If you shut the phone down and power on again, its simply not believable that you can't get into windows. if you are using an auto bootloader, then it should at least briefly give you an option to boot into windows. so, are you using an autoboot program?

If you happened to install a rom that autoboots android, (I'm guessing, can't see any other reason why a reboot wouldn't work), try turning off your phone, taking out the sdcard, then booting it up.

I'm sorry, but I don't know what to do... There's so many things that doesn't work.. That's why I posted it so many places... I don't know if I am using an autoboot program or not.. I followed the instructions from Youtube that everybody were positive about. And no, I don't get the option to boot into windows when I reboot the phone..

Android boots from your SD card so justtake it out and reboot phone and android wont load up.

Once in there you can uninstall the autoboot or flash a new version of windows or whatever you need to do.

No, that didn't work either... I thought it was very strange, because I heard about people who switched between android and wm... So I don't know what's wrong...

If you take the SD card out like others had suggested and turn your phone off and on, Android won't boot as it runs off the SD card (for the time bing anyway).

No SD card = No Android

If after removing SD card and rebooting you still boot into Android, then you either :

1. have a NAND version of Android (not sure if that's even available now)
2. have an Android phone (top part of Evo looks like Leo)
