The official RUU will not work for you no matter what custom ROM you use. The RUU is CID/region dependent. The only way is to do it is with S-OFF, which we don't have (yet).
EDIT:
Also to use RUU you need to be totally stock (stock recovery, stock ROM and re-locked bootloader).

[Q] Error 140 when flashing RUU file

I am trying to install RUU_Marvel_HTC_Europe_1.30.401.0_Radio_47.10.35.30 29H_7.46.35.08_release_183799_signed.exe and am getting error140 something about wrong bootloader version.
Can anyone help?
My Current version is ARA_1.47.415.1 + HBOOT 0.90.0.0
Try checking this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835777
and let's know if it helps !!!!
I am a little confused. Do need to have s-off to be able to do this? i mean to install the Europe RUU.
Note that my phone is not locked (not branded) but has s-on
just run it but don't continue or anything then find rom.zip somewhere in windows temp files then rename to PG76IMG.zip then copy to root of memory card then flash by holding Vol down + power when completely off fast boot uncheck.
Also you have to make a goldcard for this to work if you are s-on
Thanks. Ill try that
Pls help.Have WildFire S, Relocked bootloader, modified Hboot by this guide.When i'm trying to update my ROM using RUU, i have 140 Error.When i'm trying to update ROM using PG76IMG.zip bootloader ignores Update.

Change from Chinese ROM to WWE?

Hello there,
Before posting this, I`ve tried to find the solution on the forum, but with no success, as far as I could see. I have a Chinese One X with:
1.26.708.2 software
2.6.39.4-g6b459dc kernel
1.1204.90.13 baseband.
I want to flash RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.26.401.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13_release_251208_signed.exe, but it says error (wrong CID, of course). I`ve rooted the phone via htcdev, installed recovery and SU, tried again to flash the same official ROM, but still error. It seems that CID is not changed or set to SUPER CID with this root procedure. how can I flash this ROM, if it`s safe, of course. I need this particular ROM because of the language packs that has inside, and I don`t want to put a custom ROM.
is there any way to change CID, or to repack the RUU to a file that can be flashed thru recovery? as i could se , the baseband from the phone and the RUU is the same, if is of any use.
THX in advance!
You need "S-Off" for flashing any RUU. Without S-Off, no chance to flash this RUU.
So far, nothing available yet, to get "S-Off"...
post in general, mods move to Q%A thread please !

ok, I`ll try to find the way to S-Off One X, I didn`t search for that
but what about flashing this WWE to a Chinese One X? will it be a problem, as it is in fact a downgrade?
there's no solution to your problem yet, if you want you can search for your answer on bbs.qdppc.com .
mm.. first that might be a Taiwanese version since China ends with x.xx.1400. as for me it did.
Why dont you want to put a custom rom now that you have unlocked your phone anyways? Android revolution HD is like a stock one but it has some improvements to performance and languages for everybody. There is also a 1.26 stock rom from mike1986 just google it and you will find it. Install a custom rom with stock look and language for now, make a backup before and when there is S-OFF you can restore and do what ever you want

Problem with RUU

While reverting to stock, I got the appropriate RUU to flash, and got error that the recovery image is wrong version.

I get bootloader version error
I see the image version I already have is higher than the version image I am trying to install from the RUU.
How can I fix this?

See : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30999119&postcount=1888
I am downloading it now, however the name Europe in the RUU made me think that this RUU doesn't support Arabic keyboard while the ROM I had before had Arabic keyboard.
There is no Arabic Keyboard in this RUU but can find it in various thread.
Most important is get your device up and running.

Install WorldWide RUU on a HTC One X from China

Hi, I am really sorry to post such a simple and maybe common question, I just CANNOT find a straight answer.
I have a HTC ONE X 32GB (WW version) I got from China.
I checked the version of the Ruu and it says 1.29.708.9 (HK Ruu)
And the bootloader was unlocked, so i locked it.
I want to return to Stock Ruu cause I cannot update the official version.
I have 2 questions:
1. I am from Israel, so when I return to stock RUU, should i install the HK version like the one that WAS on my phone, or a different one??
-Can I install a different Ruu or it will screw my phone?
2. If i update to the HK Ruu which was originally on my phone, will i get a specific update dedicated to the Ruu or a general one from HTC?, I just want it to be "worldwide" and not really blocked to any updates.
Thanks, sorry for the mess.
Hey there... well as a matter of fact any other RUU will NOT work. You have to get the appropriate RUU for your phone depending on where it is from...
This will NOT block any updates, it's just for languages and local stuff specific for that region, but technically it won't be any different from any other One X.
Also there is no international RUU... every phone MUST have a specific region yours is China and that doesn't make it any different or change anything whatsoever.
Edit : Here is the link to the HK Jellybean RUU http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/sec...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_299865_signed.exe
Follow the steps on the RUU help threads if you're new to this... This RUU will give you the latest major update. Any other official updates should roll out to you as long as you have the official recovery. If you want the WWE you can get a custom ROM that has it but I doubt that you can get it officially. Good luck with this
I hope I helped
Hi, if you are in ICS, go to stock .
Means you need to restore a stock nandroid back up and its boot img . Then flash stock recovery, and last re lock bootloader. Why? To get official ota manually.

I'm not quite sure what is the Rom i am currently using, it looks like a stock rom that China folks changed to fit in their stupid little programs.
Why do I need to do all that stuff you said?, can't i just install the stock rom like Waseem said?
If your hox is jellybean , yes, there some roms stock look, also i can make you one with no modifications or tweaks...but....if your firmware is ICS, you need to update, and for that i recommend you to update via ota.

Hey I appreciate it, but I simply want to make my HOX fresh and clean from bull that was installed by Chinese folks and get a stock rom that updates by itself.
I downloaded Waseems RUU which he said was the latest for my version of HOX.
I already made my bootloader "Relocked" because it said to do so on some guide.
Now, Do i need to flash stock recovery? or just install the RUU?
Sorry i'm a bid confused.
This is my machine:
Android 4.0.3
Software #: 1.29.708.9
HTC SDK API LEVEL: HTCExtension_403_1_GA_7
Please give me some quick advise, this shouldn't be too hard, but it messes with my head.
Also, do I need to make some sort of cleaning to my phone before installing the RUU?, or the RUU installations does it by itself?
You need ICS latest ruu for our firmware. Cant install JB over ICS.
SkyDragon© You Are Not Allow To Lick My Banner, Stay Away!
What is JB?
I have the latest RUU which Waseem posted earlier. But do I need to install dtock recovery for it? Or somehow clean my device before installing the RUU?

What he means is that you can NOT install a 3.14 based ruu, you need to install a 1.29 or a 2.17 ruu. The hboot difference is to big !
Edit :
Download this one
http://bugsylawson.com/index.php/fi...89-radio-1120410414-release-259897-signedexe/
Relock the bootloader if its unlocked and execute the ruu with admin rights. This will bring the phone to full factory stock. Note that it will wipe EVERYTHING !
After the ruu you reboot and do all the official ota's you can get....
Holy cow.. now I get it. The Ruu Waseen gave me is jellybean (jb) .
Ok cool thanks.
But still. How do I determine if i need to install stock recovery before installing ICS stock ruu?
Because I accidently Relocked the hboot before flashing the stock recovery.
Also, all links to stock ruus are broken, wherecan I download ICS stock Ruu?
I seriously appreciate your help guys

Mr Hofs sir. I thank you kindly. )

You only need to install the 1.29 ruu with admin rights and a relocked bootloader. It will flash it all back. Then do official ota to the 2.17 software....etc etc....until you cant go higher anymore. Latest software should be at least 3.14 ...

Hey sorry I thought you had the JB Hboot... here is the 1.29 RUU for HK http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/sec...Radio_2.1204.122.17_release_268338_signed.exe
flash it and it should restore the stock ICS software to your HOX. then go to Settings > About > Software updates and you should then get the official JB update which will update your Hboot, Radio and ROM to the JB base 3.x
I forgot if you have to flash the stock recovey and re-lock before flashing stock RUU but I don't think you do. I guess if you flash the RUU it should relock your phone and flash stock recovery and boot.img by itself But please to be safe just make sure this is true.
A ruu does not lock the bootloader, you have to do that yourself. The only thing a ruu does is flash back the stock recovery,boot.img and software.
You relock the bootloader in fastboot mode
Fastboot oem lock
Keep the phone in the bootloader and right click on the ruu and select
Run as administrator
Edit....the first ota you will get is the ics 2.17 software, then you will get a small update and after that you get the 3.14 jellybean update. You do not get the jellybean instantly.....

I did everything you said, now i have a different problem
I cannot open the RUU file you told me to download (the installer).
I had that problem on my other PC and then downloaded JAVA and it worked.
On this laptop I downloaded java, and it still doesn't load the installer.
It opens a COMMAND windows, and closes it. nothing happens.
I run it as admin and verything.
I am using Windows 7 32bit :\
Any idea?

Yes i have it installed.
OK now something weird happened, I tried to open the RUU installer that Waseem gave me (the second one, for the 1.29 ICS) and it opened it!
But it doesn't open the file you gave me, which is 300MB
and waseems is the same name but 550MB.
what is the difference???/?
Edit :
Just checked the one i linked, you had a broken download. The one i linked is around 580 mb !

[Q] Can't flash the device to stock rom using RUU

Hi,
I'm trying to restore from custom rom to stock rom.
My phone is CID ORANG216 and I'm using xx.xx.65.xx RUU releases.
I have 2 relevant files:
The RUU exe - RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_Orange_CH-Generic_2.17.65.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_275590_signed.exe
OTA UPDATE for the device - OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_Orange_CH-Generic_3.16.65.2-2.17.65.2_release_296426gf2xgpisn8xs0fti
After flashing the stock recovery, boot_signed.img, rebootRUU, the RUU update fails because of version failure, I suspect that the HBOOT version is the trouble maker.
My phone is unlocked with S-ON with HBOOT 1.36 and the HBOOT in the RUU is 1.12 .
Due to S-ON I cant change the hboot.
I can't seem to find a workaround for it and install the RUU.
Any ideas??
I even thought about compiling the latest JB release from htcdev development center and flash it...

You need to relock the bootloader to use install RUU . It has nothing to do with hboot . Just take note that you have to use the RUU that is on the same build or higher .

The only RUU exe available is the one i mentioned and its old

if it helps anything the command "fastboot getvar version-main" on my device gives:

Like I mentioned . You have to look for the version that's the same with yours or higher to use the RUU . I guess you can't go back to stock until you find the RUU of your version or higher . Maybe you could try a stock ROM nand backup ?
Here are stock backups

Just lock your bootloader using fastboot oem lock and run this RUU with admin privileges..

I don't think your questions relate to the subject here.
Anyway, custom roms are based on the stock rom and most of the times include a file called firmware.zip, look it up in the costum_rom.zip file.
hboot updates are tricky on this device and for upgrading it (from ICS to JB supported hboot) you need a special firmware built for your specific htc one x model (look at the manuals for more instructions).
For the battery saving, I think it depends on the rom you install and not the kernel (or maybe both because they come together?), check out for old posts about that issue, I'm sure its not the first time someone asks about it.
hope it helps
