I have branded DHD from Orange PL. Currently I run MIUI but want to get back to the Orange ROM. I changed CID to ORANGB10 and S-OFF to S-ON but now looking for RUU Orange PL. Asked google and found nothing. Does anybody have a clue where to look for it?
What about simlock? How to relock the phone? I have partition7 backup that supposed to contain such data?
Here is the location of the RUU, I have done the same, as my phone needed to be sent back for repairs:
http://iloveabath.co.uk/index.php?dir=RUUs
Just install it whilst the phone is plugged in USB, on charge mode. Then I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537, and reversed the process, locking the SIM in the process.
Hope this helps

Hi guys, just looking for a quick bit of advice. I'm currently on the stock orange rom, which is frankly terrible - i'm looking to put it onto the stock HTC rom (ie no orange bloatware). Im fairly confident I know how to do this (goldcard + roll the rom back to 1.32.405.6 then just run OTA)...but my question is how to get it back to orange, should I need to. I've just finished downloading the orange rom from the link above (thanks, aliveanddead!) - will it just be as simple as running the exe? Or am I missing something...
Pretty much the same method. I had to reverse it once. To change to stock HTC Rom, you need to unlock the phone like you said, via a goldcard, and I think you still need to s-off it, then flash the new HTC rom, or like you said, use the OTA. Although, I am not sure on this 100%, I think you need to s-on as the OTA will not work correctly, I'm sure I read something like that somewhere. Either way, give it a go with s-off still. From then on you might as well leave it s-off unless you really do need to s-on, incase you want to re-do the orange ROM at a later date.
You just run the ruu .exe, in windows, connected via USB, I think you have the phone just on normally, and it will ask you to restart, or force restart. Then use the same tool as I posted to reverse the s-off, and change the CID back to orange default. It then just erases the data, puts on the Orange rom.
Hope this helps

aliveanddead86 thanks for links. I downloaded UK ROM and seems it does not fit to my DHD because of CID difference. Mine is ORANGB10 but UK ROM requires ORANG001 or ORANG202 (according to android-info.txt file from rom.zip). I found ES RUU with ORANGB10 in android-info.txt but have not tried yet. Orange PL rom contains additional games such The Sims 3, Uno and Tetris, do you guys have them in your rom?
I did have those originally in my Rom (the games that is). You can change the CID to match the orange ROM then? But liek you said, it is the UK version, but can always give it a go? When you said about your CID, I thought mine was 001 when I changed it back.
I forgot you were from poland, the picture wasn't enough

Hi,
Trying to get my brother-in-law's HD back to stock orange ROM so it can go off for warranty repair, but the iloveabath.co.uk links don't appear to work any more. Would anyone have a stock orange RUU that I can use?
Cheers.
Hi to all, I know that this topic has been discussed a lot, but, after a couple of days of reading, I couldn't find all the answer to my duobts; so I'm sorry if something has already been asked, but (as you could probably understand) I want to be 100% sure about the exact procedure.
So a couple of days ago a crack appeared out of nowhere on my LCD screen (just on the inner LCD; the outside glass is unscratched and good as new) so I need to revert my DHD (running ARHD 5.2.3) back to stock for warranty purpose.
Please tell me if this is the correct procedure:
- Put the orignal RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.3_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.15_M3_release_155032_signed connecting the DHD to the PC in HTC sync mode and running the exe wich should flash the ROM and the RADIO in the device;
- Use visionary to gain temproot;
- Use Jkolio tool to revert ENG to S-ON (because, as far as I understand, RADIO S-ON would be reverted by the aformentioned RUU exe)
- Use another RUU of my choice (a.e. RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_release_161342_signed) to finally get a stock device.
Is this the correct procedure?
Another question.
My device is unbranded and purchased in Italy.
Before flashing the final RUU, should I also put the orignal CID (different from the actual 11111111) using jkolio tool?
In this case do you know wich CID should I use? The unbranded ONE (HTC__001) or the italian one (HTC__405)?
If i change the CID, will it be necessary to use the goldcard to gain the root again?
Sorry if this was asked a lot of time, but I wasn't able to find the answers I need.
Thanks for your time and your responses.
Edit:
For explanation's sake I add that I didn't use the goldcard to gain root in the first place and that using "getprop ro.cid" in terminal emulator, my CID appears to be HTC__405 (the italian one), but in the bootloader is CID-11111111
Sooooo, no answers at all?
Can someone at least say me if radio s-on is reverted by the RUU exe?
Sorry if I insist, but I've to take the device to repair as soon as possible.
Hello ,I have updated my desire z and rooted but now I have to send it for repair to the service I have flashed 1,34 wwe rom and did all the steps for S-On and now I have a security on device but 2,42 wwe rom does not matches to my country CID code so I want to ask if is it possible to flash 2.42 stock rom on a Security OFF and Rooted phone directly or will this brick my phone ? I don't want SU or ect anymore ,just a stock rom all I need
so in other words, help you trick your carrier into thinking that you never rooted your phone?
yes please
Why do you need to upgrade, if your concern is warranty?
Its important to have the original CID & Simlock and firmware for warranty - i myself didn´t find the original vodafone firmware, so i flashed 1.34 wwe restored simlock, cid, s-on and original recovery and they didn´t even recognize that the phone was rooted (or they just didn´t care) ...

ohh reallly , I can flash 1.34 again and put S-On and original CID back and hope they do not recognize anything By the way I live in Turkey and do you too ? I wonder about the procedures for service repair , you said "vodafone firmware" my phone is vodafone too but Turkish Carrier ...
yes it worked for me... but maybe it was luck.
no im not from turkey - austria and i just looked into the german forums if there is a vodafone ruu now - but sorry there isn´t.
the procedure was like this: i took my phone to the carrier, told them what was broken (it was a hw problem) they had a quick look at it and then told me that i have to wait for 2 weeks... i got my phone back with a new vodafone firmware ...had to re-root again
Hello,
I own a HTC One V that is t-mobile(germany)-branded.
I s-off'ed it using the official HTC procedure and then rooted it using this guide (theandroidsoul.com/root-one-v).
Ever since then, I am having connection problems, as in, no connection unless I reboot it. This especially occurs while talking on the phone,
but also at random. I then attempted to apply the RUU_PRIMO_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_2.08.401.2_Radio_20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.18_M_release_263376_signed.exe following tutorials
-> first, locking the bootloader, then flash the recovery, then apply the RUU - flashing the recovery worked, however, the RUU failed because the CID does not match. Changing to SuperCID does not seem to be possible at the moment.
Plus, ever since I flashed the RUU recovery, I can't change sounds anymore, so whenever I try to change alarms/ringtones/notification sounds, the personalizer oder settings application crashes.
In order to check if the connection issue is related to the rooting process (and if it isn't, to get it replaced by t-mobile) I need to revert to the stock t-mobile ROM, however, I can't find any.
Is there any other way to solve this dilemma or can you help me?

Now just hold on a sec. You can't S-Off at the moment, as far as I know, and there is no HTC software for it. You just unlocked the bootloader, to give yourself some priviledges, but that is not S-Off, so you cannot change the CID of the phone (or debrand it).
Stock ROM for T-Mobile is not available at the moment (or at least for the public) Ask Football for it, but it will cost some EUR for you.
If the RUU sees anything wrong with the phone (including CID) it won't even start flashing the device, so it cannot do any harm for you. But since you unlocked BL I suggest to install custom firmware to see if anything is wrong with the hardware. Just be sure to do a nandroid backup before, so you can revert to the "stock" if possible.
Hi everybody,
I've been reading a lot of stuff since now but still have some unanswered questions.
I want to return to completely stock as for insurance or warranty purposes.
I originally got an german HTC One M8 with T-MOB101 cid.
I unlocked the bootloader as the temp-root variant did not work for me, s-off'ed, changed cid to Supercid and flashed ViperRom.
But now I have to send it in to insurance company because my display glass broke after dropping my htc one off about 1 Foot...:crying:
So how would be the optimal procedure to get as close to completely stock?
I know that after reverting everything the bootloader would still say relocked.
So my idea was to:
1. get an original T-MOB101 NAND backup and restore it (beforehand restore T-MOB101 cid)
2. flashing stock recovery
3. Removing Tampered (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51700320&postcount=1)
4. Setting Locked (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708571)
5. play over an OTA firmware.zip
This would lead me to a stock rom with OTA capability, but would still show me the red warning as well as S-OFF.
As an alternative I read about hex edited hboots to get rid of the red warning or even Mask S-off as s-on.
However in the according thread i could not make out an hboot corresponding to the T-MOB101 CID. So I tried it on my own after having a look at stock and modified hboots.
I edited my own hboot according to those modification but am too scared to flash it as it could hard brick my phone....
So I ask you guys, am I on the right way and what would you do ?

To tell you the truth, I don't think the insurance company will care about any software mods. Different story if you had to send it in to HTC.

Well, actually I would agree, but as they turn on the phone and a red warning pops up I could think of any crazy reason why they would deny the repair or exchange ^^.
Whatever that reason might be that would result in a broken glass caused by the software
Does the red text dissappear if I return S-ON, officially relock bootloader, stock recovery and cid?

The only way to get rid off the red text is with a modifed HBOOT.

Well ok, I feared that. You're not accidently fit in Hex-Editing ?
As I said, I already backed up my hboot and edited it as the other hboots I founds with the wrong cid. But I'm afraid of flashing it without anyone else who knows something about hexediting took a second look at it.
Also does the hboot get overwritten by a NAND backup? So if I'll restore I would have to modify that hboot and not the one I'm currently at?

Sorry, have not done hexediting in a while. Hboot is part of firmware, does not get overwritten by restore backup.
Alright but thanks anyway.
If there is someone out there who could help, i would appreciate that .
Thx in advance!

First you should flash the stock rom then stock recovery.This will remove your red text.then you should flash ruu.I would suggest not to change your cid.
Also if you are comfortable you can change your cid to supercid,mid to wwe mid then flash wwe fw and its recovery then flash the ruu.This will convert your phone to international htc with s-off and super cid and you will be able to take ota and you will have full 100% warranty.
Hey Jyotirdeb,
thanks for your input.
But there is still the problem, that I have to come to T-MOB101 firmware and not the WWE. Furthermore as far as I have read, the red text will only disappear if I flash stock recovery, stock ROM AND S-ON again. At least without a modified HBOOT.
Other problem is, that there are as far as i know no RUUs available for the M8 up to now. Correct me if I'm mistaken. At least I didn't find one, especially for cid T-MOB101.

It is true that you have to be on stock rom and stock kernel.But you dont have to be s-on you can be s-off.And yes as far as I know there is EU ruu (unbranded) maybe you have to wait for hTC to release Ruu for other variant.I am sorry I cant be of more help.
Hmm, strange thing, as I actually read it again that there must be s-on and everything stock, to get rid of it, but nevermind.
Really, where could I get that RUU from? As far as I know only the Sprint or Verizon Variant does have a RUU not the International One.
Furthermore would I need the RUU from T-Mobile as the release it with their branding, not HTC.

"Hmm, strange thing, as I actually read it again that there must be s-on and everything stock, to get rid of it, but nevermind."
If you have an s-on device you can change bootloader status to relocked but if you have soff device you can change bootloader stats to locked so you will get 100% warranty.I dont know about version or sprint but the ruu is available for unbranded EU model.

The site is in german... use google chrome to translate.
You'll find everything you need to restore T-MOB101 M8.

Actually, on that site there is a RUU for unbranded phones only. For T-MOB101 they have a nand backup and firmware. I'm still thinking whether I want to use that. That is, I have a similar issue as the OP, I mean, I want to reinstall Android, although I'm completely stock, unrooted, etc. It's just that the Lollipop update screwed everything up and I'm hoping that reinstalling will fix it. Unfortunately, for CID T-MOB101 no RUU is available. So, I either have to use the backup and then flash firmware, for which I have to root and install custom recovery first, or I have to wait till HTC comes up with Android 5.1.
