Question [REQ] Nandroid Restore Zip

I have perm root with S OFF but have come in to quite a problem. I am having problems with the screen flickering on and off and need to exchange the device. The problem is, the nandroid backup that I made is inaccessible, and I have removed most of the stock apps off the phone.

The SD card I created the backup on seems to be corrupt, I cant even get it to mount anymore on my PC. Is there anyone that created a full nandroid back that can point me to the file (be willing to share)?

I have searched everywhere and can't seem to locate one.

Thanks for the help!

why don't you just use the "Downgrade ROM and Radio from OTA to Stock" thread?

Edit: Oh, and this is the wrong place for your thread also. Prob should go in general or Q&A.

Also, the OTA update will not be received again if you do the downgrade.

Are you asking for a NAND backup of the 2.2.1 stock rom?

If so, I'll see if I can't make one for you tonight when I get home. My work's internet connection is pretty crappy and it would take forever and a day to upload.

I think it should work. if it does it should restore your hboot to orignal as well.

Take a look at this thread. It has the link to the official RUU and the install instructions.

This should get you back to stock, although I have not tried it yet. I grabbed it just in case I would need it.

And as mentioned in that thread, nobody who has followed that process has received the OTA update after having reverted back to stock.
