Hello Everyone, as in the subject, my touch isn't working, so i need to ship my phone(under warranty) to the technical center,
so, I wanted to relock the bootloader and use a ruu .
Here it's my problem, i tryed many many method, but i cannot use the latest available ruu (3.14.x) since i installed before the originale stock 3.18.x rom.
The ruu. exe give me every times the error 140, even if i try after rewriting boot.img, signed_recovery.img and so on.
I tryed many things, but i cannot do it, so here my questions:
1) Someone already have the right working solution?
2) i thought to flash a stock rom based on 3.14.401.31 and retry to use the ruu, so can someone give me a link to download a "old" rom like that?
3) other suggests?
Thank you very very much in advance for your help!

Flash a custom recovery and then flash a stock 3.18 nandroid inc boot image that matches your cid. Once the nandroid has been flashed, flash the stock recovery and relock the bootloader. Perform a factory reset to remove the previous users data. You should then be able to send the phone back to HTC
Hope it helps

first of all thank you for your reply,
I already try to restore a 3.18 nandroid, downloaded from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140 (cid 032)
I restore it by trwp, but i was some problem, the touch doesn't work, after check and recheck i thought that the problem was in boot.img, so i try to download the 3.14 boot.img and i flash it, but i had same result, i tryed with others and every times i have a different problem, the last, i have no gsm signal and it looks like the phone had no imei.
Maybe i just need a correct boot.img, but i still didn't find it
do you think i'm right?

I would flash the firmwire zip again.
Here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38781030&postcount=29
It contains the new touch image, stock recovery, boot image etc
If that does not help you could flash a stock rom created by Mike1986 using trwp or cwm. Flash the stock recovery and then lock the bootloader.

Ok, the first suggest didin't work, but with the second suggest i flash the stock rom (odexed version) i flash the recovery, i lock the bootloader.
Now it looks ok!
I hope this topic could be useful to someone else: the only way (at least in my case) to have a stock rom if in the phone was a 3.18 version, is to upgrade to that 3.19....i don't know why, but...that's it!

Thats good to know that you got it back to stock. You should be able to send it back to be repaired.
And if you have trouble with TWRP touch(and you will because of flashing new firmware in stock JB OTA) you need to use TWRP 2.4.0.0 from main TWRP page but only TWRP 2.4.0.0 with JB string at the end, or TWRP 2.5.0.0 repacked also to work with JB from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40120901&postcount=509, and because of upgrade to JB firmware in this versions of TWRP you have touch but no mont usb storage and adb working in recovery, i think that new CWM 6.0.3.0 have adb support and mount usb storage but no touch..

hi, i need help with this.
QUick run down on my story, bought the phone and found out that it is rooted so wanted to go back to stock and ended up getting it stuck on fastboot loop.
Im only new to this and found the thread in developers area with guidance on how to fix this but im getting very confused as to what i need to do and what files i need downloaded including ruu, im from AU and there isnt many ruus for voda 021 floating around. I would be happy tho if i can flash it to same rooted state as it was as long i get it working again.
Can someone give me some pointers pls, the way that thread with instruction is written is very hard for me to understand because some basic steps are skipped prob because orger understand them but im very nooby and cant work with it

ok, i think you've tried to flash a stock rom without flashing a stock recovery !!.
do you have fasboot adb on your pc ?
you need to unlock your bootloader and re flash a custom recovery
if not search the dev section for a tool that will unlock your boot and re-flash a custom recovery for you-all the instructions are on there.
once you have re unlocked and flashed a custom recovery,go into recovery and see if there are any backups of the previous rom (nand)
see if that works ..

According to the hboot (1.12) you need a 2.17 based ruu .... but i can't find it !
Tthe basic steps now are
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery
http://db.tt/Krlm4dPs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
Get your nandroid backup there,(the vodap021 2.17) you need to flash the boot.img file from that nandroid with fastboot commands, then do a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid.
But you still have to fix the fastboot part right ? You need to install android SDK/java SDK and the HTC drivers. Then you have to put the phone in the bootloader and open a commandprompt from inside the folder where the adb/fastboot files are located ...they are in a subfolder in the installed javaSDK install folder

Thanks, it is beginning to make some sense to me now.
So first bit I got to do is the fastboot issue, which is tha last bit you mentioned right?
And after unlock boot loader than flash the recovery with one you provided in the link, tx
So that means I will go back to stock right?
Yes unlock, flash custom recovery, flash boot.img, full wipe in recovery, restore the nandroid, flash back the stock recovery .....
And yes this way you go back to stock and i will also give you the download link for the stock recovery. This one is the last you flash after restoring everything
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
Then you are able to update to JB from within the phones software update menu :thumbup:
Ps you do not have to relock the bootloader anymore !

Please guys, iWe spent all day trying to figure it out, after wipe phone reboots constantly and when if boot screen it's not charging so I'm prob going to run out of battery in a couple of hours
You restore through the custom recovery. Power+vol , choose recovery. If you flashed the recovery ok then you can do from in there. Ie mount usb, copy over your nand backup and restore it. You may have to flash the boot.img using fastboot.

Sorry for bothering you guys again ^^
Finally I found some informations about updating HBOOT one my HOX, but I don't want to ruin it, so i wanted to ask you if I understood everything^^
My acutal HBOOT is 1.12, my main-version (dunno what exactly it is called) is 2.17.771.3 and my CID is H3G__106 (Hutchison 3, Austria).
Currently I am on ICJ 1.72.
I've found the following threads:
H3G BRANDED JB | Manual Update, Nand, OTA File, Firmware.zip [4/2]
[TUT] How to upgrade HOX with a RUU(hboot.img, etc..) after installed a custom rom
[COLLECTION]Stock Nandroid Backups for Different CIDs
Unfortunately I'm not sure which firmware.zip, etc. I have to use to update my HBOOT on 1.39(?, I think it's the actual version) to use ICJ 2.1.
I would be pleased if you can help me and tell me what to do and which firmware.zip, etc. I should use.

Well i would go with the nandroid backup (the one with from the last link) get your nandroid backup from there matching your MAIN number .... 2.17.771
You unzip the nandroid backup to the phone (read the OP to where exactly) then you flash the boot.img from that nandroid (located in the folder) and perform a full wipe in the custom recovery and restore the nandroid, boot it once to check the phone runs as new...all Oke, flash back the stock 2.17 recovery and reboot the phone and check for software updates.
And as for the firmware flash, the thread could not have typed it out better.....you need the part that says NAND H3G__106......
All the commands are in there and the links too

Well, thanks! I'll try it in the evening.
A last question: After doing the nandroid backup and firmware flash my HBOOT will be 1.39, am I correct?
Yes you are going to hboot 1.39.
But keep one thing in mind, only do one of the options. If you go for the nandroid backup you do not have to do the firmware flash......when you restore the nandroid backup completely including the boot.img and stock recovery you check in settings - about - softwareupdates for the official OTA and install that. The OTA will flash the hboot automatically and will update the software to JB :thumbup:

Well, it came to my mind that I only have the phone with the Hutchison 3 branding, but it is unlocked and I have another provider. Does this conflict with the option to do the nandroid backup and checking for software updates?
And if not, I think I have to unlock the phone again and do that stuff to flash a custom rom?
Ai i can't answer your first question, never encountered that before .... as for the second question, with a nandroid backup you do not have to relock the bootloader. So after the updating process you flash back the custom recovery and flash a new JB rom.

Well, okay. So I will just test it, and if I don't get any updates I can switch back to my old version of ICJ am I right?
Yes ofcourse .... do a nandroid of the rom you are running now and after that you restore the stock nandroid backup.
Don't forget to flash the boot.img again when you return to the old one
Well,
I tried the nandroid backup from this thread but I only get some md5 checksum errors...
Then I tried it twice with the backup from here but here I get sometimes a black screen (display is ON) after the htc logo and sometimes it goes past the black screen and comes to the screen where you see "HTC ONE BEATS AUDIO" and there it gets stuck.
I also did a full wipe every time before doing the backup and I also flashed the boot.img from the backup
Any ideas? :/
cheers,

I got simillar effect while trying to restore backup from that thread
And im actually in a boot loop for allmost two weeks, so i'll stick around for some usefull ideas

Uh, my bad I'll try it again in the evening ^^ Thanks for helping a poor noob
status update ^^
Used the backup from here, searched for OTA update (got one), tried to install it. Phone switched into recovery and I got some errors. Looked it up in google, found this site and removed this part
Code:
assert(check_cid(getprop("ro.cid"), "00000000" , "11111111" , "22222222" , "33333333" , "44444444"
, "55555555" , "66666666" , "77777777" , "88888888" , "99999999" , "HTC_……);
After this I was able to install the update (in recovery, using "install zip from sdcard"). After the update the phone reboots and gets stuck on the HTC logo. Hboot is still on 1.12. Now I used my old backup cause I need the phone tomorrow again. Any ideas how to get the update fully working? :/
cheers ^^
Then i guess the update fails because you need a backup matching your cid too !
Because the nandroid backup was for another cid (O2 and orange backups where compatible with different cids)
You can try to only perform the firmware flash to update the hboot and then flash a JB custom rom after that.
Mh, okay. Then I'll try it with a firmware update. But I am a little bit confused because when I deleted the part with assert(check_cid(...)) etc. I saw my CID, H3G__106, in this part.

Hmm okey, well i can't shine a light on that im afraid, but if the nandroid fails (who said that the nandroid is 100% stock anyway, we believe the uploader on that ) your best chance is with the direct firmware flash
Am I right that I have to do it with this manual? And do I have to install at first this stock backup or can I flash the firmware directly on my acutal ROM?
1) go into fastboot and enter "fastboot oem lock" - the device will reboot
2) go into fastboot again and enter "fastboot oem rebootRUU" - there will be a black screen with a silverish HTC logo
3) enter "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" (you need the firmware.zip from page 1 for this)
3a) enter the same again, the green bar under the logo should go to 100% (either after the first or second time)
4) enter "fastboot reboot-bootloader" to go back to your fastboot
5) unlock your device again with the unlock code ("fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin")
6) Restore your old boot.img (fastboot flash boot name_of_boot_file.img) and recovery (fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery_file.img), make sure you copied them from the nandroid backup folder we created earlier into the folder that contains the fastboot.exe you're using.
(7) Reboot and you should now have Hboot 1.39 with your old boot and recovery.
(8) If it won't work we still have the backup ready to restore the old system, Hboot isn't changeable right now on S-ON devices outside of the RUU routine - so even if you restore your nandroid you should still have Hboot 1.39 now)

Yes thats correct. No neef to flash the stock recovery. Directly the firmware is enough. But reflash the rom with boot.img right after that....
---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:17 AM ----------
Any succes ?
Well, now I did the firmware flash, put ICJ 2.1 on the phone and it works, but the phone doesn't get my sim card. Any ideas? ^^
Uhm well......does that rom needs a modified boot.img for the higher hboots maybe ? Just like the CM10. I would try it first with a full sense JB rom to make sure that everything works as it should, or try CM10.1 ?
Did you checked that the hboot is actually upgraded ?
Or could this have something to do that you unlocked it from the carrier ?
hello dudes... my cid no is "HTC__023"... when i first got the phone I made an OTA update when my bootloader had been still locked.... then i unlocked it, flashed a custom recovery, and flashed the ICS Android Revolution which i still hv now... ok i want to upgrade to jelly bean. i downloaded this stock RUU "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed"
which i thought was the correct one for me... it's saying that the image version is being updated from (Image version: 2.17.728.5) to (Image version: 3.14.707.24)... after it starts updating the signature, it gives me ((error 159: image error))... hv i missed sth ?
any solution plz even with a JB custom rom...
P.S.
I flashed a stock recovery and relocked bootloader before starting the update process.

hello dudes... my cid no is "HTC__023"... when i first got the phone I made an OTA update when my bootloader had been still locked.... then i unlocked it, flashed a custom recovery, and flashed the ICS Android Revolution which i still hv now... ok i want to upgrade to jelly bean. i downloaded this stock RUU "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed"
which i thought was the correct one for me... it's saying that the image version is being updated from (Image version: 2.17.728.5) to (Image version: 3.14.707.24)... after it starts updating the signature, it gives me ((error 159: image error))... hv i missed sth ?
any solution plz even with a JB custom rom...
P.S.
I flashed a stock recovery and relocked bootloader before starting the update process.

I think that you have take a incorrect RUU and if i am correct your phone now is a.... XD!
Any ways i dont know a lot of RUU but seem to be incorrect because the numbers doent matxh "x.xx.728.x" "x.xx.707.x", and i think that these three numbers have to be the same!

If you are asking a question, you need to ask your question in the correct subforum, which I have moved this thread to.
There is no usable ruu for you, and i don't see a "new" nandroid backup either. But you can do this :
Download here your matching firmware. The HTC__023 one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
Place the file in the fastboot folder and rename it to firmware.zip
Put the phone in the bootloader and relock it. Then flash the firmware
Fastboot oem lock
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Do it multiple times until it says Oke, if it does not the first time !
Reboot the bootloader (hold power button and volume - button until you are in the bootloader)
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and install a new JB rom of your choice
Even if the rom is stock or it's not possible.
In fact there is a JB stock nandroid you can use. But you have to update the hboot first
http://bugsylawson.com/index.php/files/file/186-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-htc-023-3177281/
ok but i meant to say can i use ANY stock rom of my choice coz i want full arabic support or maybe i shd stick to my cid -related roms?
When you upgraded the hboot you can use any rom out here. Custom roms, stock rom.....whatever you want. The only cid related rom here is that stock nandroid backup i linked you. 99% of the custom roms here are based on the wwe base.
Thank you very much for giving a helping hand... it worked... i flashed the firmware successfully ... one last thing: generally, we flash a stock recovery and relock the bootloader before we install a stock RUU using the computer i mean ... Can i now, after flashing the firmware, install ANY stock RUU, arabic to be specific, using the computer as usual without flashing a stock recovery and locking my bootloader?
thank you
No you must flash a custom recovery and flash a custom rom. Or you must restore the stock nandroid backup.
You can't run a ruu. There is no ruu available for you to use.
2 choices :
1: install any custom JB rom
2: restore the stock 3.17 nandroid backup, flash back the stock 3.17 recovery. Then you be able to install official OTA
after i flashed the firmware and twrp jb recovery i cant access the sd card from the recovery anymore... pc says Mtp failed
any ideas?
ah ok got it sorted out.. i tried cwm recovery and it mounted successfully ....
Oke cool,so its all sorted now ?
Yes got it all .. thank you
However, as you can see in the attached image the internal storage is nearly full. Well I just flashed the Rom as you know. I wonder what the problem could be.

Check the installed apps list. Maybe the user installed apps before making the nandroid backup
Hello everyone,
I am trying to roll back my rooted HTC One X to stock rom. I have done this before without any problem. At that time, HTC launched android 4.2.2 for HTC One X and I rolled back to stock rom with following steps.
1. booted into fastboot mode
2. flashed recovery image (using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img")
3. relocked oem
4. installed RUU file.
This time, when I run RUU file "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed.exe", I got error 158 ("image error"). Base stock version is changed from "3.14.707.24" to "4.19.707.3". And I cannot find RUU for 4.19.707.3 anywhere but only OTA file.
I don't know what to do now :crying:
My phone was locked at fastboot page and can't do anything. I can't boot into recovery. I can't use factory reset.
Please advise me how to make use of my phone again.
If RUU for 4.19 is not available, please let me know a way that I can follow either to install stock rom or custom rom. Now, I really don't know what to do.
Thanks in advanced.

Cant get my phone running. How to flash in philz?
Edit: Solved!
I have a Htc One M8 ; s-off, hboot 3.16, running 4.4.2. CID is Roger001, unlocked boot
Problem I have is I'm trying to restore the phone to stock because I want to do OTA updates. I followed the guide to return Canadian HTC1m8 to stock - downloaded the nandroid backup, restored it, flashed a stock image through fastboot;
However, now if I try a OTA it just reboots my phone and normally stalls out on the HTC screen. Nothing gets updated . If i try a factory reset, same thing, and it won't boot into bootloader until I wait a while then restart it. My data won't work anymore and TWRP recovery has disappeared. I think my issue is i flashed the wrong recovery .img, I'm a fairly noob. Checked all the related links and can't figure it out.
Any help would be amazing.
Use an ruu For your phone to update your hboot and make your you flash to recovery partition for twrp

I can't find an ruu that would work, there doesn't seem to be one for rogers...I dunno if any US carriers would work?

I got an update to work, I think I had the wrong stock installed so it wouldn't work properly. Only thing now is my data isn't working, any assistance with that that could be??
Instead of trouble shooting, I would just flash this TWRP backup tested to work on Rogers M8:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58611288
See end of 1st post in above link.
It is already in lollipop. No OTA update needed.
Use latest TWRP recovery, see 2nd post in above link.
