Hello,
I'm posting here in desperation, I really hope someone could help me.
I've recently bought a HTC Desire from O2. It was running Android 2.2 but I flashed cyanogenmod to it along with the latest radio.
Cyanogenmod worked fine but the radio stopped my 3G internet from working. In the end I decided to simply revert back to original setup using a RUU.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, the first RUU I tried ALMOST worked but then failed claiming a file was missing and that I needed to try a complete RUU.
From that point onwards I have been unable to find an RUU that will work - I constantly receive error code 140, bootloader version error.
Can anyone please tell me how to circumvent this error OR provide me with an O2 RUU that will work?
Here's the spec from my startup screen:
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MICROP - 051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.09.05.30_2
Please note that the only option I have available to me from the boot-menu is RUU - Any option to enter recovery mode is not visible.
Please please help me, thank you so much in advance.
I wish I could give helpful advice...
I'm gonna try though.
Download one of the latest RUU's from here.
Perhaps your RUU was a bit old?
I've only ever done RUU once, when sending my phone back for repair. I encountered another issue.
To the OP, which RUU are u trying to use?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Make sure you've got a goldcard then do the downgrade. After that you should be able to do any RUU you like.
Lol just try a different radio. Have you manually set your APN?

Hi dehaani. In order to run the downgrade utility I surely need to be able to access my device (to enable usb debugging ) I currently can't get further than a grey HTC logo with exclamation marks in the corners? Is there a way to downgrade without the need to boot in to a ROM?
I've tried running almost all RUU I can find online, most of them result in Error 140: Bootloader version error.
I can't flash another radio because the only option I have available to me in bootloader is "RUU", no option to restore etc. How do I manually set my APN?! Would this involve access to the phone too?
Thank you all so much for your responses so far, please keep helping.
try again hope good luck
This might have been pot luck on my part getting through to someone who knew their stuff, but I had a problem when flashing Oxygen RC7 to my desire.
I had to ring o2 about another contract I have, used by a family member, and they asked if there was anything else they could help with so I jokingly replied "not unless you know about flashing replacement ROMs..." would you Adam & Eve it, the clever little badger only went and talked me through the issue I had come across on my Desire.
Might be worth giving them a bell if you cant find a solution online, I've always found them very helpful.

HI Guys
Ive read through the forum link above all 24 pages and downloaded the relevant Stock Roms, the original from HTC and the Vodafone one. Ive got a little confused reading through all the posts. To flash the original stock rom over my current vodafone branded one what steps exactly do i need to take. People are mentioning the unlock via htc dev in the forums is this required to take it back to the original stock rom. I didnt see any clear steps on how to get this done. Anyone provide any help. Ive flashed my old phone numerous times but at present am a little worried about using the htcdev way. I know the developers are working on s-off is any of this needed for what im trying to do??
Thanks in Advance
Gav
you don't need to unlock to flash an official ROM.
Best way is to grab the RUU file that is correct for your device and flash that way. Its a windows executable you run whilst your phone is connected via fastboot.
edit: that would bring you back to the vodaphone crap. whoops. disregard but yes you don't need S-OFF or unlocked blootloader to flash original rom

Hi Mate
Thanks for this, just a quick question then im currently running 1.26.161.2 (vodafones ROM) and i want to use the original stock one from HTC 1.26.401.2 can i just overwrite vodafones with this one?
Gav
I too am a bit of a noob and have a voda branded hox on its way to me. I was under the impression that although we may be able to flash stock htc hox firmware onto the device, we won't be able to it 'properly' because of no proper s off or boot loader..... Or something..... And therefore won't be able to receive any OTA updates afterward....
Or am I talking rubbish and we CAN actually nicely and simply flash stock firmware on and forever after have no issues receiving offiCIAL OTA?
Also gav I don't even know if any stock RUU exist yet...?

Hi Mate
Yes i have the stock and vodafone rom downloaded i got it on here from the developers section. We should be able to install these RUU updates as it doesnt require s-off or to use the htcdev method as least from my understanding.
Sorry to bump this thread, but I'm currently looking for the Original Stock ROM for the HTC One X.
I came across this thread in my search, but the link in the first post is no longer active.
Is there an updated link ?

Mate, first you must know exactly what are you looking for. There are numerous links around here with different versions of stock ROMs.
You need your phone's CID and main version.
Only after that you will search, download and flash the stock ROM that ffits your phone.

I've checked my CID (Using command - fastboot getvar cid)
My CID comes up as : None
I am currently on Revolution HD 7.x ROM and wanted to update to the new 19.x ROM
The problem is when I try updating the hboot, it constantly fails.
I've downloaded the "x.xx.401.x - World Wide English (WWE)" version
A friend of mine has a stock standard One X from Vodafone and JB was just pushed out as an update for her.
I want to try and restore my phone back to the original ROM for that purpose. (also helps in case of warranty)
Have had a look but cant seem to find the original Vodafone ROM anywhere.

Download CID getter from Play Store. It should help.
Also fastboot getvar version-main is important for you, too.
Do not try to flash incorrect firmware!

This is good news! You need main version also. Then, go and check HERE. There are explanations and files that will help you. Download and flash (as per instructions) nandroid backup that matches your version. Once that finished, you will soon get notification about available update. Accept it, and you will have Vodafone stok JB. After that, do what ever you want with your phone

Hi guys,
Hoping someone can help, have bricked my Australian Optus stock One X. I have tried to follow all threads related to loading stock or custom roms from fastboot and am unable to. I still have CWM recovery 5.8.2.7 touch installed.
I had previously rooted it and installed Android Revolution HD 5.1.0 and seemed to be fine but was unstable and would crash and reboot in certain apps. In trying to revert back to stock I stupidly formatted the SD card, DUMB ASS!
I have downloaded stock rom 1.29.401.7-DUO, all-in-one rootkit, and the ARHD ROM and have tried to either:
1) flash ARHD with bootloader still unlocked, doesn't work
2) follow reflashing stock process ie flash stock recovery, relock bootloader, then flash stock ROM, and am getting stuck on just reflashing the stock recovery. When I try to open stock recovery it takes me to a black screen with a red ! in a triangle, this is with the bootloader relocked.
If anyone is able to help an enthusiast noob like me I'd be very appreciative and would also be more than willing to donate for the trouble.
MAKE SURE you have exactly the right RUU for your phone, whatever the rom was on you were using, ie, 1.26, 1.28, 1.29, you need the same version of RUU, i discovered the problem trying to flash RUUs and after 2 days finally got the correct one, thats when i realised, unlike on other phones, you cant downgrade the One X and when recovering it seems to prefer the one that matches what you were using.
Also make sure youre cid is supported in that RUU, ie, HTC 001, TMOB 054, etc etc, mine can only accept 401 roms, so they must match exactly, until we can get S-Off this problem will remain, dont worry about recovery, so the guide on in case of disaster, you cant go wrong with it, relock your bootloader and get your RUU installed, from their update it to your latest ics version and then if you must reflash your cwm and root it.
Thanks for the info, graemeg. After downloading an RUU that was .exe file, I felt I was getting closer, as it was an AU Optus RUU. But it turns out that my current version is 1.28.980.10 and the RUU version was 1.26.980.3 and so yes I met with the non-downgrading issue.
It seems that there is not currently a stock 1.28.980.10 RUU at the moment, so might be using this as an ornament for much longer than I would have hoped/thought. Bummer.

You can get 1.28.980.10 from htcdev downloads. I would link but I'm a new user, just filter by One X, Optus, and it's there.
Thanks again for the help. I have seen those files on htcdev website, but don't know how to use them
I don't know how to load a RUU that is not a .exe file...if anyone is able to assist, again, I would really appreciate it and will donate once up and running again.
Edit: I just wanted to add that I have tried to follow the thread that explains how to load/flash recovery and boot images via fastboot in command prompt, and have not been able to. So I don't think I'm a complete dumb ass, but do need someone with the knowledge and patience to guide me through it. Please!
First thing first, do you have the right RUU with you ?
If not, maybe this is the one for you : http://hoxroms.serveftp.com/RUU_END...Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_258004_signed.exe
second: do you have fastboot directory set up on your pc ? and htc usb driver too ?
Just starting the download now, I think that could be the RUU I've been looking for. Yes I have the drivers and fastboot directory. Will give this RUU a go and let you know, thanks for the quick reply, ckpv5!
Most important before you run the RUU, you need to:
1) have a stock recovery flashed to you your device first (I believe you already have one)
2) relock the bootloader - fastboot oem lock
3) run RUU, it should work.
THANK YOU!
ckpv5, thank you for the link to the updated RUU. Phone is functioning again, stock. Donation coming your way. Thanks for all your help. agentorange82.
The latest HTC updates arrived this morning (Connect, Dot View, Lock Screen, Mail, MirrorLink), and my phone prompted me to restart to update the lock screen. I did, and now my wifi won't turn on.
I've tried restarting and turning on/off airplane mode, to no avail.
(Stock HTC One M8 running Android 6.0, Sense 7.0, software 6.12.111.4)
Any ideas, and/or is anyone else having this problem?
Edit: I tried Bluetooth in the meantime, and it's turning on but won't find devices/connect to existing ones, so it looks like that's shot too.
do you have telephone network working?

Yeah, mobile data/calls work fine.
I was on to HTC Support earlier on and they suggested doing a hard reset, which I just did, and no luck.
It did say "Failed to load driver", so I'm wondering if I just got a bad driver in the update... Is there a way to check/fix it?

If there is an RUU for 6.12.111.4, that is probably your best bet at this point.

This is the bit where I admit my ignorance of what an RUU is.
I followed the instructions here to load a nandroid backup of 6.12.111.4, and it didn't fix the issue. Is this different to an RUU?
Edit: I did some internet hunting and found that RUUs for my SKU only go up as far as 4.19.111.2. Is it possible to use that RUU to install an older firmware, then search for OTAs on the phone and re-upgrade that way?

A stock nandroid is just the system and boot partitions, where an RUU is a full re-write of all partitions. That's the main difference.
But restoring the stock nandroid was not a bad idea, to at least try. Of course, since it didn't fix the issue we'll have to keep looking for a fix.

You can't "downgrade" by RUU (run an older RUU) unless you have s-off.
Now, if you restored a 6.12.111.4 nandroid didn't fix the issue, and no corresponding RUU is available (did you do an XDA search, not just around the web via Google? - sometimes folks post the RUUs direct to this forum) that leaves us in a tough spot; and you may well have to resort to s-off ($25 by sunshine app).
Have you found a fix yet?
Im having the exact same issue, i've searched everywhere and cannot find a fix have you found one yet?
also having this issue, can't find a suitable RUU for S-ON.
wouldn't it be possible to do a 4.something stock nandroid restore and then use a RUU?

I'm not clear what you are suggesting: RUU for your version, but older version 4.xx; or another versions (CID) RUU.
Either way, you can't do those with s-on.

i was referencing the downgrading issue. if there is a RUU available for 4.9.111.2, you could do a stock restore to that version before.
doesn't help me though, can't find any suitable RUU for my CID.

As I already stated, you can't do it with s-on, even if there was a Lollipop RUU for your version.
You can't run a previous version RUU (downgrade) unless you have s-off.
ok i solved it for my case. the problem i had was an outdated firmware, as mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/wi-fi-wont-flashing-custom-rom-t3349613
so basically what i did was flashing the latest firmware i could find (4.19) an then installing a custom rom. i guess after flashing the firmware one could also just restore a nandroid backup

So you didn't have the same issue as the OP of this thread. Theirs was a completely different issue: official OTA caused WiFi broken vs. your case of a custom ROM with outdated firmware.
Its much easier to help folks when they describe the problem properly instead of saying "I have the same problem". Which from my experience its almost never the case where its exactly the same problem (and better to give specific details).
Next time, please provide more details in order for us to help you properly.

i've had the issue after restoring a nandroid stock backup, which was also tried by others in this thread. but yes, maybe my problem was different.
Hi just bought a 32gb international version HTC One M8 that was converted into GPe. Then I reverted back using RUU and this firmware (1.54.401.5-W_Splash). Now that I've flashed a S-rom. Wifi isn't working. I asked the guy what was the original CID No. but he forgotten. So the question here is how do I find the right firmware?

If "401" RUU worked before (Euro version), than another 401 (x.xx.401) RUU is what you want.

I just solved my issue by finding out that my M8 is Dev Edition. So I flashed the latest firmware fw_6.12.1540.4 for the BS_US002, 0P6B12000. Wifi works like a charm now. Anyways thnks for your reply!
Hi all,
I wanted to start fresh and I flashed a RUU (there is no .exe for HTC034 versions as far as I know) to go completely stock. I only didn't know that this would change my software status from official to modified. My question is if there is a way to go back to official while being s-on. And if not is it possible with s-off? Also does this 'modified' mean anything in regards to my warranty and taking OTAs? I hope somebody can help me because I'm a bit lost and I can't find these answers.
Thanks!
I did some more research and I thought of this: going s-off and change the cid to the US unlocked version so I can use the ruu.exe of the US unlock version. This will give me back software status official because using a .exe will give you this. After this change the cid again to my original one (WWE) and flash ruu.zip again. This time the software status will not change because I'm s-off. So my software status is ok again and I'm still with my original software and cid. Is this method going to work or not? Hope somebody can help me.
Nobody that can help me?

I can't tell you if it's gonna work, but all I tell you is that I'm also HTC__34. S-off and locked, I wanted to know if I could manually install the 1.80.401.1 ota.
On ICE 10 on a daily basis, I flashed the 1.30.401.1 zip ruu: I was still "software status: official" afterwards and I managed to flash through stock recovery the above mentioned ota flawlessly.
I guess I can thank sunshine again for S-off
Don't know if it's of any help for you, but I hope a little
Thanks. Your status stayed official because you're s-off. I was s-on so it changed. Thanks for the help
I hope one of the experts here can help me with this.
