Hello
I am about to sell my desire and would like to get it back to a non modified unrooted state (ill just leave alone my S-OFF if possible), so that when i sell it, it will be able to install OTA updates and such.
Also i would like to get the original recovery back.
Before i modded it it was unbranded, so no rebranding needed.
Thanks in advance
This tutorial should help:
http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-unroot-the-htc-desire/
And as far as I know (never tried it tough) it will revert back also to S-ON.
okay i tried doing this, but the installer throw a error 140 says BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR.
My bootloader says BRAVO UNKNOWN SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.75.0000
The updater says from
Version:
1.21.405.2
To
Version
1.15.405.3
so prob i need a newer installer but where do i find that?

Awesome thanks, it worked a treat
The phone belonged to a HTC programmer, and he's given it to me to look at, (i do phone repairs). I do own an XTC clip if that helps at all.

I am truly stumped as to where to go from here, i was going to attempt to take the phone back to stock software to see if that rectified the issue, but my attempts seem to be in vain. any and all help would be most appreciated.
Create a GoldCard, then you can flash the WWE RUU (since it is a branded device).
The Second RUU is too old, no wonder it won't flash.

Here is the my Issue : http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/general/htc-816-help-t3032083
Hello,
I tried last year rooting my HTC m8 bought and used in China, I discovered that all rooting software were not compatible with my particular build and kernel.
Now, without Google play and any update of Android I feel quite limited and I would try back to root my phone.
Specs are:
Serial Number of Device: HC451WM00835
Software Number on Device : 1.0.0.M8t
Radio Version : 1.23.213311231.14G
Current Bootloader Lock Status: M8_TL PVT SHIP S-ON
Hboot Version from HBoot Screen : 3.19.0.0000
Do you know if there's any chance nowadays to root it?
Thank you,
Lorenzo

Lollipop is the latest Android version for your device variant which is a LRA.
You can get the 4.21.512.4 RUU here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66044439&postcount=37
then OTA to 4.21.512.5 but most probably you need to change the CID from SuperCID 11111111 back to stock LRA__001 for OTA to install successfully as explained here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67516629&postcount=26
Then you can install any Marshmallow GSM ROM with Verizon support.
Note : Never ever install any Verizon stock firmware or any GSM firmware to your device, it'll brick the radio and you'll lose network & data.
Think about it before you do it...

It's awesome you actually got great advice and refrences to how to do what you need to do. I'd like to add this though: Consider whether getting Lollipop is worth re-locking and doing the things you need to do, including putting your device from s-off to s-on is worth it. And yes, you can run a RUU executable and extract the rom.zip from your computer's temporary files, but unless you have some mad coding and manual programming experience, with the version of HBOOT you have listed if you want to be s-off again you may be out of luck. or find yourself in a bootloop or your computer unable to find your device, or even unable to access stock recovery even with the correct button sequences. At best, you may find yourself unable to access mms apn settings (not even sure if you need or care about that), and if you can access them (apn and mms settings), unable to get the settings to stick (or actually apply themselves so your phone even uses them at all), or only have internet access but no mms even with the exact settings for mms you need put into a third-party texting app such as textra. etc.
if you are already or end up s-on and updated to the "latest and greatest" for your M8, maybe everything will work out perfectly for you . But, just something to thing about before doing all of those things. If you are lucky enough to get a bonafide XDA member's attention and help, as you have already, you are still by default expected to think of these things and do your own research. What you probably won't find out along the way is that when you run into some strange problem, there's no one knowledgeable to help you decipher it. There's tons of unanswered posts on this forum alone that have been viewed many times, that go unanswered.

That's a wrong advise and wrong understanding.
Once a device is S-Off, there is NO NEED to relocking bootloader and there is NO NEED to change S-Off to S-On.
Only S-On device needs relocking bootloader to install signed firmware and signed RUU. S-On device can't install unsigned firmware or RUU.
S-Off device can install any unsigned or signed firmware and RUU (no relocking is needed and not advisable)

thanks,so my device will still ***UNLOCKED*** after i install RUU right?
btw we dont have verizon provider on my country ,thats mean i cant do OTA update ?
so i guess RUU if my only option to update my device,?it is possible for my device to use marsmallow or nougat?

Leave it UNLOCKED so it will still be UNLOCKED after RUU is installed.
Whatever you do now or later ... no need to relock it, leave it UNLOCKED.
You can do OTA as this is not a Verizon device but LRA. Now you can't OTA because you have a Verizon ROM running. RUU 4.21.512.4 is stock LRA, you'll get OTA notification once you install it.
The only thing is you need to change SuperCID 11111111 to LRA__001 to proceed OTA (as experience by other user in the above link I gave you).
Frankly speaking I don't see any good reason to have SuperCID on this variant.
Once you updated to Lollipop you can use Marshmallow ROM which support Verizon (there are a few of them). Nougat .. not so sure but you can always try later after you updated to lollipop but definitely won't work on your current firmware which is a KitKat.
