Hi Guys
I have the One X Middle East Version (HTC__J15).
It came from the factory with 1.26.401.2 which is the European ROM because HTC i guess did not have Middle East specific rom when the phone was released.
I unlocked the phone on HTCDEV and installed a custom ROM. I am now trying to go back to the official ROM but the phone is not accepting the official 1.26.401.2
I tried to change the CID in fastboot to european but i am getting the "too many links" error and fastboot freezes so i have to switch the phone off then on again
tried to relock the bootloader and install the 1.26.401.2 but no luck
any one came across this problem ? was anyone successful in changing their CID after they unlocked on HTCDEV ? Thank

If you have unlocked via HTCDev the this would have removed your CID in which case yes you should be able to flash the WWE RUU on a branded device.
If you have not unlocked and are still running stock then no it wont work.
Does HTCDev unlock remove CID? Unless it changed to 11111111 you still won't be able to flash an RUU AFAIK

It does indeed. It doesn't change it to 1111111 it completely removes it altogether.
I re locked the bootloader the other day and re-flashed the WWE RUU as im sending it back (screen flickering problem) and it worked with no issues.
Vodafone Australia
I am Vodafone Australia and unlocked my phone via HTCdev. I am also facing the same problem (screen flickering)and need to send it back. I have re-locked it. As you just said "I re locked the bootloader the other day and re-flashed the WWE RUU as im sending it back" can you please explain how did you re-flash the WWE RUU? steps or link?

You need to get the vodafone au ruu. General wwe releases will not work for you. Pretty sure the correct ruu is available in the dev section.
Can't link, posting from phone.

Stock RUU for 1.28 needed
Hi there
I have effectively killed my HTC one - I unlocked via htcdev and upgraded the recovery - fastboot shows the device id when running the command fastboot devices.
However I am now stuck in a boot loop where the phone only boots to hboot (following a failed boot.img flash) I have downgraded back to stock recovery and re locked but cant find the 1.28 RUU to recover the device (and I did try the RUU for 1.26 but it wouldnt install)
Once I updated te recovery i ran the fastboot boot boot.img command
This failed to progress past the 'htc quietly brilliant' flash screen.
I dont have the rom .zip saved on my internal memory on the phone - I was hoping to be able to push it to the /data/ partition however when I try this sdb returns no connected device.
Wonder if anyone can assist in either
a - returning to stock with a RUU for 1.28
or
b - advise how to flash the files I need onto the phone (it seems that the ROM isnt booting so I assume its from the point I install boot.img and beyond I need so help)
Unfortunately I cant get the phone to boot to copy files to the memory so need to work entirely in fastboot and adb (assuming adb wil recognise the handset)
Many thanks
Gurry

But relocking it puts it back so unless you were on HTC__001 you'd be back on the VODAP001 CID

Can't be done. You can't downgrade bootloader.
hi
i got a htc one x with stai in logo screen the bootloader by unlock before and flash with custom software but the phone not wake up
i try for 2 days fix this but not working
i try
lock bootloader and flash orginall RUU but i get error bootloader
the orginal RUU come with 1.28 bootloader and the phone have 1.29
phone is from tmobile UK
how i make fix this
thank you for any help
regards
i try with fastboot but i dont make flash system
sorry for my bad english
When using a custom firmware, you need to flash the boot.img that come with it.
About the RUU, you need a 1.29 or higher version.
i was traying to revert to stock by following the thread of mike1989 and apparently i did something wrong, im on s-on relocked bootloader and flashed a stock rom odexed (also by mike1989) and flashed stock recovery after that, now the phone cant recive any OTA's since ive flashed the 4.4.4 rom (world wide english version) and my phone is from france (CID: ORANG202) and i cant re-unlock the bootloader to flash a custom recovery
i also tried to flash a RUU (with the same CID) but no success it says :FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
i will be very thankful if anyone could help me!
Just go through HTCDev.com again to unlock the bootloader.
What if the exact file name of the RUU you tried?
What hboot, radio numbers?
If the RUU is indeed correct for your CID (for which I'm a bit suspicious, there aren't many RUUs for Euro carriers), you might have the wrong version. With s-on, the RUU has to be equal or greater firmware version than what is on the phone (no "downgrading").
Hi everybody, I have a HTC One M9 with bootloader unlocked and TWRP is installed on it but with S-ON. It's running on lollipop 5.1.
i could not gain S-OFF because i have to pay for it through sunshine application. But the problem is i am living in SENEGAL so there is no paypal. All the rom i have flashed fail to boot. I would like to get back to stock rom, unroot and relock the bootloader so that i can get the OTA update of marshmallow. but I could not find any stock marshmallow online for my phone. i would be very happy if someone can help me with a stock firmware. Here are the informations about my phone:
HTC ONE M9
CID: HTC_621 TWM TW
BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED
S-ON
CURRENTLY RUNNING ON ANDROID 5.1
Set up fastboot and do the command : fastboot getvar all, and report back

Hi mtraore21,
It looks like you've got your CID. Have you looked at Flippy498's Back-to-Stock spreadsheet? It looks like there are some RUU files that might help you.
An important caveat: you'll want to be sure you were flashing a RUU that was a lower version than the firmware you currently have - my understanding is that you'll damage your phone, or at least soft-brick it if you do that.

Have you tried the HTC website? I had a very similiar situation with my phone and downloaded the current ROM from there - an RUU file that all I had to do was double-click to run and it did everything else. My M9 was returned to "factory new" when it finished. I worried myself half to death but it was SOOO simple! Just find your particular "variant" from the website and select "download".
