Here latest RUU for BellMobile Vision aka Desire Z
http://www.multiupload.com/PDMCMMG96H
Enjoy!
I'm interested in trying other ROMs but I would like to be able to return to my current stock ROM if it doesn't work out. Currently I'm running a Bell ROM, but the version is more recent than this one.
Specificially, I'm running 1.34.666.5 with Radio 12.28b.60.140eU.26.03.02.26_M.
Right now, both the firmware and the radio versions are newer than anything on the xda site. Would it be possible for you to obtain a newer RRU? I have checked both the Bell and HTC sites and couldn't find a download link for any RRU.
If it isn't possible, can I expect my phone to update to the current versions OTA if I give it this ROM?
Is it possible for extract the current radio ROM from my phone itself?
I apologize in advance if I'm asking these questions in the wrong place

if you permroot/s-off your phone. you can do a full backup using clockworkmod recovery. however, you do NOT want to flash official ruu's and such, if one is older then the one your on or from another brand, this will happen: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=838484
if you want to try this rom, it will have to be A.made into an update.zip rom w/hboot, radio, and recovery all REMOVED, or B. take just the system.img out of it and flash JUST the system.img in fastboot in bootloader (not the fast boot in sense). "fastboot flash system system.img"...you will then need to re-permroot, but skip all the s-off/hboot stuff, you will still be s-off.

Yeah, I need the Radio 12.28b.60.140eU.26.03.02.26_M Extracted from your ROM too. Because I flashed the WWE ROM and I'm having signal issues, compared to my brother who is using that current Bell ROM. If I have to run the Bell ROM to fix this, I'd do that too, but I can't find 1.34.666.5 only the 1.34.666.1 that's listed in this post.
*EDIT*
So... I flashed this posted RUU "[RUU] RUU_Vision_BellMobility_WWE_1.34.666.1_Radio_12.28 b.60.140e_26.03.02.18_M2".
But found the kernel is different, so I couldn't S-OFF to get recovery back on. So... I had my brother S-OFF his phone and make a
Nandroid of his phone running 1.34.666.5. I then proceeded to flash "RUU_Vision_HTC_WWE_1.34.405.5_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155556_signed" back onto my phone, and then rooted, S-OFF, flashed clockwork" and then recovered using my brothers Nandroid backup. Then used clockwork to reset it back to factory. I then made a nandroid backup of that. So, I am posted a Nandroid Backup of
So if you flashed this, the steps are as follows to get back to the original Bell ROM.
1. Flash "RUU_Vision_HTC_WWE_1.34.405.5_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155556_signed"] ROM via multiupload.com /67NZB9NER1
2. Root
3. S-OFF
4. Install Clockwork Recovery via ROM Manager
5. Reboot into Clockwork
6. Recover using Bell HTC Desire/Vision 1.34.666.5 Nandroid Backup via my upload here multiupload.com /6SETLDCPJE
Hope that helps some people who are stuck!
PS To Flash the WWE ROM you might need a Gold Card, I used one.
I'd like a tutorial on how to extract just the radio from the WWE roms. If we could get them as .zip's, loading them with recovery would be very beneficial. I know that if you install a WWE update through HBOOT, you will lose your root and it will return your phone to s-off. Its a bit of a pain of having to go through the rerooting process every time.

I just wanted the radio to flash over my current ROM to see if there was any difference in network reception for us in the uk. But I got a new sim now which seems to be a lot better.
I'm sure your nandroid will be useful to others.

Ok, so now that I've unlocked my device using the new gfree method, and have true radio S-OFF and SuperCID, I believe that I could now flash any provider image and return to my backup or a stock provider image at any time. I'm right, er, right?

I am not 100% sure on this myself, but I think it should be ok now. Before the problem was that you could flash an older ROM, and it would first off flash the stock HBOOT over the previous eng HBOOT that was giving you S-OFF. So this would immediately put you back to S-ON. However, now with radio S-OFF you will stay at S-OFF in the flashing process, because the change is made in the radio configuration partition, which won't be touched by the flash.

Hello! i`m newbie when it comes to android platform. I have perm-rooted my DHD, and I wanted to flash a new ROM (eg. LeeROM) but before doing that, I want to have a copy of the stock RUU of my phone which is Japan`s Softbank 001HT (1.35.762.2), for me to be able to restore the phone back to its original state if needed. I`ve googled it out but I can`t find a RUU for this. My question is, if i can get the boot.img of the stock ROM, and save it in my PC, is it the same as the RUU for my phone? If i have this boot.img of stock ROM, no matter how many times i flash it and install a custom rom, can I use that boot.img to restore it to its original state?
Thanks in advance...

you need more than the boot.img all that does is boot android and execute and pre-boot scripts..... if you have the ruu you can return to stock just by running it
So I was wondering how I can return my HTC Desire (CDMA) to stock. I have an OTA update that I got from my friend's desire I also have a nandroid backup of the original sense.
Is there any way to convert the OTA update so it is a flashable zip I can use on CWM?
The other thing is can anyone help me if I post the update?

Flash the downgrader from Alpharev (if necessary), then either use the appropriate RUU or restore your nandroid backup from recovery.

If I had an RUU that would make it simple but all I have is an OTA update. And I saw somewhere that I can't really flash an OTA update with CWM. Also restoring the nandroid from recovery would look stock but it will still have root. I am just trying to get it back to factory stock rom and recovery with no root.
Looking at the files in the OTA there is a firmware.zip that has a new hboot, recovery and radio. But I am just not sure and where to start for creating a flashable zip with the OTA.
I uploaded the OTA I have if anyone can help me create a flashable zip or just tell me what to do. http://www.4shared.com/file/0b8ls5sf/OTA_Bravo_C_S_UTSTARCOM_WWE-Ge.html
Before you do that... ask yourself what could possibly be the most important question before you take the chance of breaking your phone: "What's the point?"

Then that is not the way to procede..You cant flash non-rooted OTAs on CWM..Well, you can, but it will just bungle up the whole setup.. What you can do is to flash an RUU and revert it to stock, then flash the OTA with the stock recovery to get it update

No. That's impossible.. Well there was a way, if you'd thought about it earlier...to create a backup after a revolutionary S-off, then do whatever you want with the phone..and then finally when you wanted to restore, you could have restored the unrooted backup, then stock recovery and then finally Stock Hboot in that order... But now, there will no way other than to use an RUU of another carrier.

Well I do have a unrooted backup but the only recovery that I have is the one in the OTA. Would it be possible to install that recovery and still be able to do an update using the OTA file?
Best course of action would be to restore your backup, followed by the following in order:
Prerequisites: S-off, Goldcard, An RUU confirmed to work with your device (Any region/WWE).
Steps:
Restore your backup with CWM. Ensure that it boots.
Extract recovery.img from the stock RUU (which should be working on your device normally)
In fastboot mode, and after going to the dir containing fastboot.exe (from sdk):
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot-recovery
Ensure that recovery works.
Then, using the hboot.img from the RUU,
Code:
fastboot flash hboot hboot.img
(the hboot extension may not be .img in the zip. Probably it's .nb0. Rename it)
Dont use OTA files at any point. You can update with it after successfully returning to stock with your backup.
Flashing hboot should be the last thing you do..Once the stock hboot makes you S-on, fastboot commands become inaccessible to you.
Thanks for the info, I think I am finally on track now. I was able to restore back to stock sense and was finally able to fix my mms issues(ro.cid problems after using unrevoked). Now I just need to figure out which ruu to take the recovery and hboot from.
I did find the alltel bravo_c ruu on shipped-roms.com hopfully that will work. Is there any sure way to know if the recovery will work or not on my phone?
I am with GCI its a local carrier in Alaska. I remember from my hero that alltel and my carrier had some similarities, along with cellsouth
Edit:
I just finished downloading the Alltel RUU and the HBOOT looks to be the same version. Also the Radio listed in the file name is the same as I currently have.
So I guess it is pretty safe to say that this recovery and hboot will work with my phone right?
The only sure way is to flash it. However make sure that the RUU is relatively new and has a version number greater than 1.2 and that you flash GSM one if you're on GSM, and CDMA if it's a CDMA phone.
bravoc=CDMA
bravo=GSM
Dont mix these...otherwise you'll end up with a black screen and a panic attack
There's another method to find if RUU is compatible, which is to open the zip and read the text file inside..See my Desire Unbricking guide and Goldcard FAQ link
Well I got it all back to stock, I still have s-off but everything else is stock and the latest FW my carrier pushed out.
I was having a problem using fastboot to flash the recovery so I just made a PB99IMG.zip to flash the recovery then everything else(hboot radio) everything is working fine thanks for all the help!
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

Maybe i just need a correct boot.img, but i still didn't find it

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!

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..
Hello guys,does anyone have a 3.29.166.9 twrp backup? Or a m8 with cid-vodap110 so he or she can make a fresh nandroid backup so i can go back to stock. I tried x.x.161.x backups but they don't work with cid-vodap110. Vodap110 is specific cid for Swisscom ch. Thanks in advance
No one has it?
Why don't you contact the other guy that already updated to 4.xx.166.x
Ask him for system part only. Then you can use it to update by flashing firmware first.
(I have the firmware but no backup)
Are you running a rooted/modified stock ROM now ? If yes, you can backup that and upload for me.. I will try to fix the error.
If you're running a custom ROM, you can flash the updated firmware and then install a lollipop custom ROM ... this can be done too.

I'm running a 4.16.401.10 stock firmware,and it works great even if it's not for my cid,but i would like to have official ota and for that i need stock firmware. I contacted many users with .166 firmwares but no one want's to make a backup :/
You don't run 4.16.401.10 stock firmware but you run a stock 4.16.410.10 ROM.
You can flash your stock firmware 4.19.166.2 then run 4.16.401.10 .. at least you can have a lollipop firmware running a lollipop software.

Need to totally factory start my HTC ONE M8
Hi guys, i really hope you can help me here.
I have a HTC ONE M8. It is a UK version on EE carrier. the CID is ORANG001. in fast boot it is blank next to OS- (don't know if tyhat matters at this point) I have S-Off through SUNSHINE. I have no oringinal back up. I have tried flashing the recovery found in my OTA updtate and several others that say they should work in various other threads, all through ADB Fastboot says it sends and writes ok but has no effect.
I have unrooted, factory booted, and am at the end of my tether. EE will not replace the handset if it is tampered and i really dont want to have to pay for a totally new one.
