[Sprint] Unroot help

[An UrgeTo Dance]

Alright so I really need help. I have to bring my phone in because of the USB port and the store said they had to send it in to get it fixed so I need to unroot. Can I just flash a stock unrooted ROM then lock the bootloader again and be done with it? or is there other stuff I need to do?

Edit: and a stock recovery?

 

[MizzouBrent]

Yeah. It would be easier to use Odin. Look up the video by qbking on xda. You need the tar and the lte tar. Install it with Odin and lock the boot loader.

 

[An UrgeTo Dance]

I used fastboot, I already knew how fastboot worked. Plus I think you need Windows to use Odin.

 

[MizzouBrent]

Ha OK then you're good to go.

 

[An UrgeTo Dance]

Yeah I think its time to update my guide with easy ways to unroot now. Never had to learn how to unroot until now lol.

How long is your phone expected to be gone for?

Running the Evo I assume? King's Froyo while you wait?

Bummer to hear though. I hope it's back soon for you.

No I found one way that it will charge and luckily my brother has a nexus so he can charge my battery for me. I am waiting for the replacement from Sprint, it should be here Monday so until then I am running an unrooted stock Nexus. It's a pain really, you don't know how awesome something is until you don't have it anymore lol. I never really used the stock jelly bean because I rooted my Nexus within 24 hours of purchase.

Gotcha. Good to hear. Yeah, the rooted roms offer some options that I just can't live with out. A big one for me is volume rocker to ff songs.

The worst part is stock colors. Yuck.
