Hey,

i can't access dev forum so i posted it here.

I have new Sensation with all updates. today i have installed Revolutionary and only this. Now i want back to original state of my phone, and get my warranty back, what can i do?

This is info about my phone:

Kernel:
2.6.35.13-g3422292
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 1 15:03:50 CST 2011

Radio
10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M

Compilation
1.45.401.2 CL125597 release-keys

I want back to EXACTLY the same state of my phone that i have before installing revolutionary. Is that possible? Without loss of settings and data?

U should have saved a backup of original os before wiping and flashing. Restore back to that then follow S-on instructions.

If u didnt save a backup, in the same thread S-on is in u can find original Pyramid downloads.

I also would like to ask:

If I made a nandroid backup of original ROM according to S-OFF guide and anytime I´ll revert it back, will be the phone in the original state? It means without CWM and root? (except s-on)? Thank you.

Im not 100% sure but i dont think just using nandroid will remove S-off and the CWM. one thing id say is be really careful, ive tried to go back to S-on following the bottom bit of the S-off guide and bricked it after writing the secure flag command. still not sure what i did wrong...

You are probably trying to preserve you stock rom for backup before any flash-fest.
If this is the case then I am in the same boat. And the main reason for me is that there is no RUU available on the net for my Sensation. Which is the main obstacle when someone sends you to "go read S-OFF guide, S-ON section".

As far as I know you cannot uninstall Revolutionary.
If I am not mistaken it performs two things:
1) overwrites stock HBOOT with hacked HBOOT;
2) overwrites stock recovery with ClockWorkMod recovery.

So, besides that the rest of the system is intact (radio, system) as far as you've not installed root.

As a conclusion you cannot uninstall Revolutionary, you have to flash stock recovery and hboot back.
Everyone on the forum points a finger to RUU direction. But if you do not have RUU BUT have original stock recovery and hboot, theoretically you could flash stock recovery and stock hboot either using fastboot or manipulations with PG58IMG.zip file.

Unfortunately, I have not found the comprehensive and safe guide for these operations. And no-one on this forum wants to give a competent response to that :(
