[Q] reflashing ruu after unlocking bootloader - HTC Wildfire S

i'm currently running Hensemod and have CWM installed. But the phone is so laggy and its unbareable....
Can i simply install the latest EU RUU to restore my phone back to its original state?
If i do this will it then remove CWM? or will this cause my phone to brick?
I just want to put it back to factory standard and then maybe look at other roms later down the line
Many thanks

He's asked valid questions after.

i would also like to know if this is possible, to downgrade from the htcdev bootloader and radio as well.

Yes you can install an ruu but you will probably need to create a goldcard.
It wont brick your phone and it will remove clockwork mod recovery but you can flash that again
Not sure if it will downgrade hboot.

I could not install any RUU files after unlocking the bootloader so i decided to build a standard version of the latest HTC_Europe 2.3.5. I hated the lockscreen rings on the modded versions so i removed the rings and used the earlier version lockscreen with the slide unlock.
I just flash it through CWM in recovery mode and its been working great, its not rooted its stock.I dont have enough posts to direct link but here is the un-direct link if you would like to try it. w w w . mediafire . com /?33r6ccpcxbmcspp

[Q] How to unroot htc one v

Hellloo xda...is there anyone who can gimme a proper step to step guide for unrooting my htc one v.
1. Download the HTC Asia India RUU from Football's collection in the development section
2. While that's downloading, relock your bootloader using the command
Code:
fastboot oem lock
3. Open the RUU. Find the temp folder it created and open ROM.zip from inside it with 7Zip. Extract the recover.img and flash it
Code:
fasboot flash recovery recovery.img
4. Run the RUU and your phone's status will be *** RELOCKED *** and unrooted.
So why do you want to unroot?
Whenever I install custom Rom my sd card and WiFi doesn't work...soo I installed custom Rom without having a nandroid.backup.that's y I was asking.neways thanks a lot for replying.this. is my second one v(replacement)
sent from my sexoo one v
My build number is1.56.720.2 and the ruu is 1.58.707.3.what should i do now??
how do i find the temp folder??..
What is the use of other images???in rom folder..does this stock ruu flashing fixes error?
So what exactly are you trying to do now? Before you said unroot the phone, then you said install custom ROM in a later post.
could you also please find a way to help me? my htc one v freeze forever after i turn it on, please help me
Assuming you're on stock rom, have you try factory reset in bootloader ?
Do you know your software version or cid no. ?
He sent a pm telling me that his phone is rooted and he flashed a zip file that supposedly increases the SD card speed, and apparently causes soft bricks too
I think the only thing to do is re-flash the RUU because I don't think he did a backup in CWM Recovery.
Roxas84, please confirm.
I see.. if he can send the file, sometimes do a revert.zip will help. The easiest is reflash the same rom.zip with wipe cache & system. It should correct the error.
Hey dudes,
I was going to start the same thread but since this is open I want to ask you one question:
If I root the phone, flash cwm, and then I want to return to stock (for warranty purposes) how can I 'uninstall' cwm? Because for unroot I know how to do it, but uninstall custom recovery I never done that even on my older phone - Htc hero.
I'm not new to recoveries, custom roms, flashing and all this kind of stuff, but this is a problem that I don't know how to handle it since I didn't needed to uninstall the custom recovery in the past.
TIA!
L.E: To Answer my own question:
D) ROM is stock, bootloader unlocked, CWM recovery and rooted
- download OTA Rootkeeper from Play Store
- run the OTA Rootkeeper and click protect root
- no need to relock bootloader
- boot to bootloader and fastboot flash the stock recovery
- run the OTA update
- Once done, run OTA Rootkeeper and click restore root
Thanks @ckpv5 for these awesome guides
I just summarized this thread in the following tut but with much more detail:
[TUT] Re-flash stock ROM (RUU) after bricking a rooted device (for noobs)
Roxas84, follow this tut if ckpv5's suggestion above doesn't work.
1ceb0x, it will also show how to revert to stock recovery.

it doesnt look like the taiwan ROM is flashable on mainland chinese version of t328w because of CID difference.
That's exactly the point!
I am trying to flash a Taiwan version of the ROM. But becouse of this SID difference, I'm unable to do it.
Any good soul knows how to do it? Bypass, change or fix this SID difference issue?
Best regards,
you need to flash a china version, then replace the rom and boot file with the taiwan rom

what u need to do is the following:
1) *skip this step if your phone is still locked* if you have unlock your bootloader, you need to relock it using the same tool that unlocked the bootloader
2) download the RUU version of the original ROM. RUU_PRIMO_DS_ICS_40A_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.35.1402.1_Radio_1.04.34D.11_20.11.30.11U_release_256137_signed.exe
address is here:
http://dl.dbank.com/c0ys4u58d7#
3) go into fastboot mode, and execute the RUU file.
4) follow the steps and your phone should be back to original factory states.
the thing to make sure: your bootloader needs to be locked to flash RUU.

This instruction I have follow many time already, but no luck.
I guest this only work when our device not yet receive 1.56.xxx OTA update. When we receive such this OTA update, our bootloader has been updated to 1.14.0002 which is newer then the 1 in the ROM you suggested to me. Finally, the update is failed with a report "HBOOT is older, update failed".
Anyway, really thanks for your great time for suggesting. And till now I have found solution on this issue, is that you could use the, what they called mini-RUU of China ROM (it's also same version suggested above, without HBOOT, and some other part of image file). Using flash zip file method in recovery mode, it work and you need to update software after complete flashing.

this is because old Kernel is used. I've got the same problem when played with roms on my device.
Try to unpack boot_signed.img from rom.zip of original RUU and flash it via fastboot
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
This should help.

i want my stock rom back, pls help

okay, so here is my problem:
i got unlocked, rooted wfs with cm9 , oc kernel by jikantaur and my RUU is 2.13.401.2
but i want to sell my phone and i want an original sense on it.
i tried to download RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.2_Radio_47.23a.35.3035H_7.53.39.03M_release_225747_signed but after running i got 155 error.
and yes, i also didnt have my nandroid back up, but i dont care about my data, i just want an original ROM on it.
please help me
Did you lock the bootloader?
Code:
fastboot oem lock
i guess not. i need to be locked down my bootloader again, and after that i wont get error 155, and this (RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.2_Radio_47.23a.35.3035H_7.53.39.03M_release_225747_signed.exe) will install the "old" stock rom?
btw if ye, how shall i lock it?
use bltool by rezo609(penguin avatar), download it and just flash from CWM. press: install zip from sd card-> choose zip from sdcard-> bltool.zip and choose locked. after this you can flash RUU or PG76IMG.zip from sdcard
my first thing will be this tomorrow, if its works i will give u a huge hug:fingers-crossed:
Thank you guys! its working !
Off topic . I have restored my stock Rom , I found some ota update , download but not able to install ...any solution ? I have s- on .
maybe cause u are on "htcdev" list, as an unlocked phone, this can cause your problem? if yes, u can do the update by your comp manually i think

tks man!
You need to relock your bootloader (if you haven't already) and run THIS RUU.
The problem is that the version of software you're running (2.17) is newer than the RUU you're trying to install (1.29). you can't revert to an older RUU. you can only flash the same version or newer.
Once you've flashed the RUU, you'll be able to download and install the JB OTA.

Thank you very much man, You renew my faith!!
It will work like a FORMAT SYSTEM with the same Rom?
I'll keep in touch!!
Also, this may sound silly but did you reflash stock RECOVERY?

You don't need stock recovery to flash an RUU. You just need a locked or relocked bootloader, and a less or equal main-version.
Once you run an RUU, you will have stock everything(including recovery) and will be able to install whatever OTAs are available.
Well I am currently running Team Venom's Viper but I have HBOOT 1.31. My device's CID is HTC_J15.
I have checked the list of RUUs but unfortunately all of them are older than the version I need, which has to be 3+.
Does anybody know if there's an RUU available for my device? It is an ubranded WWE version, 401 if I remember correctly.

In my experience the 2.17.707.xx RUU Asia WWE does not work properly. It does its thing installing everything, relocks the bootloader but somehow it does not reflash the recovery. After 4 hours trying everything under the sun, I gave up and looked for a nandroid of 2.17 for CID_044 and restored from that, reflashed stock recovery and went to town with the OTA.
That's very strange, no such problem when I did the same thing. You'd think it would throw an error or something if a component of the image failed to flash.
Glad you managed to figure it out!
Did you run it when your bootloader was unlocked? Maybe that's the problem? I ran it with the bootloader relocked and didn't ahve any problems. I was under the impression you couldn't run an RUU with an unlocked bootloader, but haven't tried it myself.
Refer custom to stock thread posted earlier. Go through step by step procedure. It will help u to be on stock Rom. After that flash any Rom suitable to your CID only

The RUU ran with no problem, and it relocked my bootloader, but it still did not receive any OTAs. So I had no choice but to do a nandroid restore instead (recommended anyway )

T-mobile Firmware issue help required

i have a t-mobile version of htc one m8 but when flashing ROMs , i flash international version of the ROM which i'm flashing. The phone is sim-unlocked.
Lately i'm having problem of my phone getting stuck on boot and only way out is wipe cache and dalvik on every time i reboot. And also GPS is not working (tried every fix but no avail) I'm guessing his is some firmware problem.
So the thing is I want to get back to Android 4.4.4 version ( on which it was earlier before i flashed any Lollipop rom , so that i could flash T-mobile's OTA to Lollipop back ( for firmware update ) and after reading and some research , i have understood that i have to be stock recovery and relock the bootloader and get T-mobile RUU ( very confused about RUU thing)
Could someone confirm if this is the correct procedure and explain what steps i need to follow IN ORDER to get this done ( and if links to corresponding guides i will be really helpful) .
I AM S-ON.
Hboot - 3.19
Radio - 1.22.213311491.08G
Please help , really frustrated by these issues and apparently previous threads of mine have gone unanswered.
Unfortunately, if you want to revert to KK (or any older version), you will have to be S-off to do so. So, pay the $25, get S-off (which will helpfully unlock your bootloader at the same time), run T-Mobile RUU for desired version.
However, even if you are S-on, you should be able to use a current or newer RUU to get the firmware up to date, then move on to installing the ROM of your choice. You are probably better off going to the latest firmware and running an alternate ROM, but that's just me.

So if i were to follow S-on steps , i will have to first flash stock recovery , relock bootloader and run t-mobile RUU for firmware upgrade ?
When i relock bootloader everything will be wiped , right ?
So i connect my phone to pc with relocked bootloader and stock recovery and run t-mobile latest RUU on windows ?
Is this the correct procedure?

That is all true; except you do not need to install stock recovery to RUU.
Stock recovery is only needed to OTA, not for RUU.
