Hello all,
So I'm attempting to revert to stock. Search has yielded some answers, but also posed some new questions for me.
I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704021&highlight=stock
with this info:
Yes.. you can run the RUU on top of a custom rom, no need to nandroid restore your old stock backup. Most important is the stock recovery been flashed and bootloader re-locked before you run the RUU.
And I normally also flash a stock boot.img first. (some people say no need to do this, but it is no harm doing it).

So now my question is, how do I revert to a stock recovery? I know locking the bootloader is:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
but I still need a little more help getting my HOX back to stock. Any help will be appreciated greatly.

Hello. You have to flash stock revovery from cwm recovery thread, before you relock bootloader (command is then: fastboot flash recovery recovery.IMG (take name of stock recovery and put a .img on its end)
Good success
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Find the recovery relevant to your version before you flashed custom Rom (mines 1.29.401.11) download it and put it in the same folder as your fastboot files. Go into fastboot USB and type fastboot flash recovery "name of stock recovery".img
You might have to "fastboot erase cache" if you get stuck on the HTC splash screen after rebooting

If you flash an RUU it replaces the recovery with stock so you don't need to do that, just lock the bootloader and flash the RUU you downloaded before unlocking the phone in the first place

Hey, i unlocked the bootloader, flashed a CWM (That does not allow me to mount my phone storage to the PC), tried to flash 2 .zips (the Remove menu thingy, and the SuperSU V.0.87) and when i tried to do that it went in a bootloop(or bootstuck? gets to the "HTC One X - Beats Audio screen, and never gets any further) WHAT DO I DO? Help me please!
Hi, i did exactly the same thing and...i got the same result ....Please, anyone knows how to solve it???????
I am guessing you didnt take a backup in CWM prior to flashing the mods? If not, unfortunately, your only solution would be to bring it back to complete stock and flash the RUU that originally came loaded on your phone.
1) Flash stock recovery:
Grab it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579797
Then Boot in bootloader >> Fastboot and issue the following command (assuming that the offical recovery is named recovery.img): fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2) Relock Bootloader:
Boot in bootloader >> Fastboot and issue the following command: fastboot oem lock
3) Find and run/flash the RUU for your device, find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604
Thanks!!!!! thank to you I managed to unlock my mobile
Can't really tell you what worked, i flashed my RUU but it failed, i tried flashing stock and all that (which i put on there beforehand as CWM can't mount the drive), but in the end it was just persistence that got it, so just keep trying!

I think the Menu removal caused bootloop. I don't have my PC with me if someone can upload the stock Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk you could replace that to boot it back again. If nothing works then download one of the Custom ROM (ARHD or LeeDroid) then wipe everything and flash that it should work for you.
End to unlock again?

You should have received a code from HTC when you unlocked, check your email for it. Then you place it in file with fastboot on computer, open cmd prompt, type in fastboot oem unlock and it should unlock.

Hey guys,
I have an HTC__044 device which is unlocked and running a custom ROM with a custom boot.img. I am wanting to restore the phone to stock ROM so I can download the JellyBean OTA.
I've seen the procedure for returning to stock RUU, but I am not sure on the procedure for when you have a full Nandroid backup of your stock ROM.
Could someone please clarify?
I understand it to be as follows:
1. Boot in to recovery and restore Nandroid backup of original ROM
2. Flash stock boot.img extracted from RUU via fastboot (or boot.img from backup directory on SD card)
3. Flash stock recovery via fastboot (or recovery.img from backup directory on SD card)
4. relock bootloader via fastboot
5. Reboot phone and stock ROM will be recovered
6. Download and install OTA.
Have I missed anything? Do you really need to flash back to stock recovery? I don't really see the point of doing that?
Thanks

Yeah, looks good to me.
You don't need to relock it if you're just going to apply the OTA.
To apply OTA, you need stock recovery.
Oh really? Cool!!
So I can just recover the NANDROID backup, and flash the boot.img then check it boots. then flash the stock recovery and download the OTA without re-locking?
I thought you had to lock the bootloader to get OTA updates as unlocked bootloader sets the CID to none, so no OTAs are detected, no?

I've never tried it, but as far as I know, you don't need to lock it, updates are based on IMEI, not CID, and although CID can show as all 1s in some places, fastboot oem readcid should return the correct one.
However it takes about 5 seconds to lock it and just a few more to unlock it, so... Your choice.
If you have the Stock RUU your device shipped with, just go in fastboot, connect to pc and run the RUU.exe.
If not, the steps in first post looks like a good route to flash back to your original ROM.
In my case it was shorter:
1. Restore nandroid backup (of the original ROM, did after root).
2. Fastboot oem lock
3. Run RUU
That's all.
You can try this too.
Regards.

Well, the OP didn't ask for the RUU method and said he was aware of it.

fastboot oem lock

Before you do anything, the best thing to do is to check again what is the actual software version no.
Go to fastboot and type below command
fastboot getvar version-main
Tell us the no. written there
Then we talk about getting your ROM back to stock

Yours is same as mine, CID HTC__044 and 3.14.707.24
When reading your thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055377 I'm a little bit puzzled on why do you want to revert to stock as your device is already on JellyBean and there is no further OTA at the moment.
Here are three scenario that you may need to choose.
1) You just want to revert to stock ROM but you still need to root it.
a. Flash the stock boot.img attached here (That's the stock boot.img for 3.14.707.24)
b. Restore your nandroid backup
c. Reboot.. you are done .. you will have stock ROM but still on custom recovery in case you still need to play around like rooting the stock ROM or whatever you want to do.
2) You want to revert to stock ROM with everything complete stock with your nandroid backup.
a. Flash the attached stock boot.img
b. Restore your nandroid backup
c. Reboot to bootloader again
d. Flash the attached stock recovery.img (That's the stock recovery.img for 3.14.707.24)
e. Relock your bootloader with command "fastboot oem lock"
f. Reboot your device.. you are done.
3) You want to revert to stock with a RUU.
a) Download RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed.exe from various site that you can it this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604 or you can download from where that I uploaded one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34971176&postcount=2487
b) Put your device in fastboot mode and relock your bootloader with command "fastboot oem lock"
c) In fastboot mode too, run the RUU and follow the updater instruction - next- next-update-blablabla until it finish
d) Complete the setup wizard, you are done.

You have to flash the stock recovery.....the nandroid is taken with a custom recovery so the stock recovery is not included in the nandroid .... therefore you need the stock one :thumbup:

Hi Craig
I've seached and cannot find a suitable stock image download for a UK HTC One on the Orange network (if that makes any difference).
Could you post where you downloaded a stock image from please?
I've found plenty of M7 RUU links but it seems a bit crazy to reflash everything including the radio just to reset the bootloader.
Thanks in advance

Recovery is present in RUU. If u have found the correct RUU then just extract the recovery image from Ruu and then flash it. When u click the ruu a temporary zip file is created in c drive (windows pc). There is a file called "rom.zip" . Extract recovery from this rom.zip
No luck with this..

Hi
I've spent several hours trawling through forum posts and trying suggestions but I'm having no luck getting back to stock.
This is what I have:
HTC One on Orange UK
Bootloader locked
S-On
CWM Recovery
Stock ROM
What I've done is unlocked the bootloader and flashed CWM recovery. I then relocked the bootloader.
I've searched for hours for a stock recovery that is compatible with this model but to no avail. I've also tried to find an RUU for Orange UK but again, no luck.
I've tried to set S-Off using revone but get an 'error: device not found' when running 'adb push revone /data/local/tmp/'. I've also tried to run 'fastboot oem unlock' but that also errors.
The phone works but I'm unable to OTA upgrade which is quite frustrating.
Anyone have any recomendations as how to get this back to stock?
Many thanks in advance

hi,
I just want to ask some noob questions, as I don't play around my set so much.
1) First of all, do I have to be on stock recovery to check for updates also ?
2) I rooted my phone using Hasoon's Toolkit and installed TWRP Recovery (didn't install a custom rom yet, on stock 4.1.1), but made a backup before flashing recovery. Do i have to flash stock RUU to come again to stock, or I can flash the backup I made before flashing the recovery ?
3) How i can find my stock RUU, my CID is TMOB_005.

Kashif Rafiq
100+ views no reply, no one is ready to help ?
Can anyone with same CID confirm, whether update recieved or not ?

You can receive OTA updates if you have the following; stock recovery, stock rom, locked or unlocked bootloader.
I don't know where the RUU is for your CID but I'm sure there is a thread with it in somewhere.

correct
And just to answer your other question, save the backup you made in twrp onto your computer in case you need it later, this is your nandroid. Then if you install a custom Rom and need to go back to stock at some time you just need to flash the boot.img from your backup and then flash your nandroid in recovery
Now go get the cakes
i've flashed the stock recovery, but after flashing when i try to go into recovery it shows red triangle with exclamation mark

Long time reader, first time poster. I am a little paranoid on what I leave on the internet, so please forgive my profile

I am currently out of ideas, searched through the internet and xda for hours last night didn't find anything.
Well if the software on the phone is completely stock then indeed you need to flash back the stock recovery. You can download them here

Flash the stock recovery that matches the main version of the running rom (3.14)

Hi guys,
Long time reader, first time poster. I am a little paranoid on what I leave on the internet, so please forgive my profile
I am having a bit of issue with my One X where it seems that the recovery.img was corrupted coming back from Custom Rom back to stock. I'll try to keep this short while keeping as much info as possible (can't get getvar to work at work, will post later if necessary) any help from some pro-rooters will be greatly appreciated.

[Symptoms]
When installing OTA (Optus 4.2.2, software 4.19) the phone will shut down, then attempts to run recovery, after the white splash screen showing disclaimer from HTC, it will then transit to fastboot and does nothing.
When trying to do a factory reset. Same as above happens.
[Current device status]
Australia, Optus carrier
Stock recovery and kernel. Pulled from nandroid when I first rooted the phone before any custom rom (now I come to think of it, the recovery from my own nandroid may be a custom recovery, TWRP)
Bootloader at Relock status
Stock Optus Au ROM @ 3.14 software number Sense 4+
[Where I'd like to go to]
Stock Rom @ 4.2.2, stock kernel, custom recovery
[How I reverted my phone to stock]
utilized fastboot

Using option 1 path
[How I rooted my device]
All in 1 tool kit from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
[I suspect how I can fix it]
Unlock the relocked bootloader, flash proper or another recovery.img to fix the corrupted recovery (or an entirely wrong reovery)
Re-download the OTA from carrier with suspicion that it might be corrupted
Find the correct RUU.exe to flash it

Unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery, restore nandroid backup according to your CID, flash boot.img from nan backup & stock recovery which you can find at 1st link you mentioned in your post then reboot & check update OTA and install it.

Thanks guys, so it seems that indeed I have flashed the incorrect recovery.
I guess the next question is how do I unlock my bootloader from "relock" status?
[I have tried]
Just flash a recovery through fastboot
Re-flash unlock token that came from HTC Dev when I first unlocked the phone
fastboot oem unlock
and none worked for me
thanks
Flash the unlock code again
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin
Must work or get a new token at the dev site
