[Q] Desire HD back to latest stock Vodafone UK rom?

Hello people.
An android newbie here. I have beem doing quite a bit of reading on this forum, but this is my first time posting. I have looked around all over the place and I have reached a point where I am confused of how to go about the task I am wanting to accomplish. Here goes:
I bought a desire HD on vodafone last week, it had 1.75.161.2 firmware on it. I stumbled across these forums and decided to flash a custom ROM (Leedroid). I was successful a this task, but now i have a charging problem with my phone. If i understand correctly, my warranty is void with a custom ROM, so I would like to know how i could get back to my stock Vodafone ROM (1.75.161.2), also with the branded vodafone logo that used to appear before i flashed to custom ROM.
Again, sorry if there is stuff about this posted elsewhere, I have been reading, but i am really confused.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards

You have to run a RUU if you want to return to stock.
I don't have any links to official RUUs atm, but check the threads in the android developement section. There should be one with vodafone branding

Thanks for your reply.
I have installed a Vodafone branded RUU, I have also found a Vodafone backup which I have tried. I get the branding back, but I cannot get any updates OTA. I'm now on 1.39.161.1. There clearly is a 1.75 update on Vodafone, I used to be on it and my friends are on it.
Any help for me to receive these OTA updates?

I think 1.75 was pulled by HTC at the same time as the 1.72 update, due to some major bugs.

Vodafone website states 1.75 is the latest. Last week I had 1.75 I don't think 1.75 was pulled. 1.72 was definitely pulled.

Anothe DHD noob question here. I bought a DHD off eBay and I know it is locked to Vodafone, but I'm not sure if it's branded. If I don't get the Vodafone logo when I switch it on does that mean it's not branded?

Check the firmwareversion. If it's like 1.32.405.3 it's unbranded. The important part is .405. That means that it's unbranded.

It's 1.72.405.3
So it's unbranded but I need to downgrade in order to root and S-OFF etc?

Yes, you need to downgrade it to 1.32. But you don't need to create a gold card

Hi, I've the same problem, I need to get back to voda 1.75
First of all, did you used hboot S-OFF or radio S-OFF ?? Because if you used hboot you won't be able to recover the original boot to S-ON and your phone will be out of warranty regardless of the ROM it has installed.
As I understand it, if you've flashed the 1.39 branded RUU back to the phone that should've give you the stock vodafone recovery wich is what is needed in order to get Voda Branded OTA updates, am I right?
So I don't get why aren't you receiving the 1.75 OTA, do you have superCID?
Anyone knows if there is a 1.75 Voda RUU available somewhere to flash manually?

Hi.
Looks like we're stuck in the same boat! I have reflashed the original radio and the original hboot. Also put my cid to stock (VODAP001), and turned radio s-on. Reflashed clockworkmod recovery to original stock recovery, got the phone back to 100% the way it was when I took it out of the box, yet still I cannot get the OTA update to 1.75.161.2
I'm on 1.39.161.1, stock Vodafone UK firmware. I followed a guide off another forum (german forum) nd thanks to Google translator I managed to follow the steps. But still stuck at the OTA issue.

yep, so it seems.
Could you post the link to that thread on the german forum?
Thanks

There you go. Its the second set of instructions which i followed Have a gander.

Hi guys,
Sorry to dig this one up but I've hit a bit of a snag with my phone and could do with some assistance.
I got the phone originally with a Vodafone ROM and decided to debrand it to a plain HTC ROM - 1.72 using a de-brand pack I got from Fonefunshop. It appears that based on the fact the phone still has a Vodafone serial number but a HTC ROM I cannot receive OTA updates (I want Gingerbread ) then I need to revert back to stock. Ironically Vodafone released 2.3 earlier than HTC which was annoying to say the least.
I've been hunting round for the stock Vodafone RUU for 1.36 but I don't know if I can downgrade for starters, nor can I find any Vodafone RUU files anywhere including on here nor on Stock-ROM's.
Can anyone give me some help with this?

When I bought my phone from Vodafone on contract in November it came unbranded and unlocked. Nothing to do with Vodafone at all, apart from the CID. So if you just flash back to the stock 1.32 ROM and change the CID to the Vodafone one which I think is VODA_0001 (Dont quote me on that, its off the top of my head but there is a thread here somewhere that has it in), then make your phone S-on to get the updates.
That way you will be completely stock.

I'm in the same boat too
Flashed the non-branded software when I got the phone last year. Now I can't get the OTA update to 2.3.
Does anyone have a link the the stock 1.32 ROM and also a guide on how to change the CID and to make the phone S-on to get the updates?
Thanks
Lee

No OTA after flashing 1.32 WWE on branded device?

Hi everyone;
I see HTC is releasing Gingerbread OTA on Unbranded Device!
If I flash my branded device with WWE 1.32 rom, is it safe for me to install the incoming OTA or will it brick my device?
I just want to be sure
Thanks in advance

It won't brick your handset. By flashing a 1.32 WWE RUU you are turning your handset into an unbranded one. And as such you'll be able to get the OTA to Gingerbread.

Often OTAs are rolled out over a period of hours, days, or even weeks! You will have to wait until it is either nitified, or you can keep checking manually.

Thanks, but they released the update in Belgium as well.. My friends with unbranded devices have received their updates

Hi,
I also use a 1.32 WWE flashed ROM, I unbranded my Device using a Goldcard. Will I need this Goldcard for the OTA update or does it work without goldcard?

I don't know :-/ Wondering it too

No, the goldcard is used for downgrading. One tip if you have yet to receive the update, change the date on your phone to a month from now. This worked when HTC were doing a phased release of 2.1 for the HTC Hero.

Question about OTA updates...

I have a O2 UK branded hox, which i've unlocked and use on Tesco Mobile's network (actually uses O2 network) but just wondering if I would still receive OTA updates if I revert back to stock, as it was my understanding they were pushed out by the network providers?

Yes you can still receive OTA updates if you revert back to stock .

The phone checks HTC servers for updates using the Internet. It has nothing to do with the provider.

Correct. It's the software build you're using that determines the updates. For example, if you're running x.xx.61.x (Orange UK) and you don't change this bar using a different SIM card you'll only get update that have x.xx.61.x in it

Thanks guys just gotta figure out how to put it back to stock now....

What HBOOT are you on? If you're on an earlier one you might be able to get away with the 1.2x RUU but if you had the 2.17.61.x OTA update recently I believe you're stuck as that RUU hasn't surfaced yet

Pretty sure the existing Orange UK RUU will do the job for stock in that case, then

If you've not unlocked/rooted/gone custom at all it's very simple! Go to Settings>About phone>Software information and make a note of the build number, e.g. 2.17.401.2
THEN see if it's available for download. In this case, it is...

Ok thats the one I have thanks, just need to figure out which boot img to flash as there are 2 on the guide i read 1.26 or 2.17 or something

Take the boot.img from the RUU...although you don't need to if you're going to flash the RUU. All you have to do is relock the bootloader and run it when the phone is in fastboot mode - it'll put it back to 100% stock

Many thanks, just found my original Nandroid too should I need it

Ahhh, thanks for that info mate much appreciated.

Managed to do it by restoring my original nandroid I did as soon as I unlocked the bootloader, at first it was boot looping but i flashed the boot.img from nandroid and it is fine, ota showed the 4.0.4 update immediately and managed to download it, now back onto arhd 9.7.2 so at least I know I can get back, will just have to relock it next time and flash stock recovery. will just have to figure out which recovery would be needed.

You don't need to relock to install OTA.

[Q] Why is my HTC One x (PROTOTYPE) stuck on ICS?

Why is my HTC One x (PROTOTYPE) stuck on ICS?
Hey guys, This is my first post ever on XDA so please forgive me if I sound like an idiot
I got hold of a HTC One x which was already had an unlocked bootloader, rooted and had CWM recovery installed. I was told that I have a prototype version of the one x. Anyway that is not issue. when I got the phone it was running android version 4.0.4 HTC Sense version 4.1 and I checked software update. The 3.14.401.27 OTA update was available so I proceeded with the update and after the reboot I found my phone stuck in a bootloop and the only way for me to sort it out was by restoring my nand back up from CWM. I really wanted the new Sense 5 UI and android jelly bean so I downloaded:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_TW_3.14.709.20_Rad io_5.1204.162.29_release_292865_signed.exe
My CID was HTC__621 thats why I downloaded that ruu but after flashing it not was I only stuck in a bootloop but also when I entered recovery mode it was just a blank black screen with the back lights on. I even flashed different versions of CWM recovery and TWRP which gave me the same black screen so I flashed the stock recovery.img which also gave me the same black screen. I thought me maybe a different Ruu would resolve this issue so I used 'JBFWTOOL21' to change my CID to '11111111' this allowed me to flash:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27_Radi o_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe
&
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Ra dio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe
After trying both these ruu's I still found my device stuck in a bootloop. Next I downloaded 'Endeavoru_CustomRUU' this contained a 'rom.zip' which I belive was a jelly bean rom and said it would update my image version to '3.14.401.31' after flashing this ruu, my phone booted up past the 'HTC Quietly Brilliant' screen but into a black screen but I could hear the boot sound and knew it booted up but it still gave me a black screen. barre in mind this was the only rom that booted up and didn't get stuck in a bootloop but the downside was I had no picture on the screen it was literally pitch black with the backlight on when it went past the 'HTC Quietly Brilliant' boot screen. I didn't even see the one x boot animation. I could only hear the boot up sound and once it was booted up the notification LED would flash I was receiving network settings from my operator. That was about it. I booted into recovery to see wether that worked but unfortunatelly it was also still giving me a black screen. The only thing I could boot into without a problem was 'power button + volume down' which booted into bootloader in which I chose 'fastboot' to flash all these roms.
At this point I thought my device was soft bricked so I gave it to my friends father who happened to really good with his IT skills. He managed to change my device's CID from 'HTC__621' to 'HTC__001' after doing so he downloaded this ruu and flashed it:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radi o_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe
This ruu turned out to work perfectly fine with my device. Everything functioned once again, the device was able to boot into recovery and boot normally without a hassle. I also discovered that this was the rom that I received my phone with which put me back to the start on android 4.0.4
I was really annoyed with the fact that I was stuck on ICS so I flashed the MaximusHD 21.1.0 rom and its boot.img which put me into a bootloop again. I also tried other custom roms such as Revolution and SD secxces which all put my phone in a bootloop even though I flashed their boot.img kernels. I knew that I required a hboot 1.33.0000 or above in order to flash jb roms so I used 'JBFWTOOL21' once again before flashing these custom roms to update my hboot from 1.12.0000 to 1.33.0000. so all these bootloops still occourd after doing all this and I just had to return back to ICS. barre in mind I only tried flashing JB roms as I want sense 5 so I don't know if a custom ics rom would work on my device as I havent tried it yet but I know for a full fact that none of the jb roms work on my device.
For those who are wondering here, I uploaded some pictures of my device just check the attachments. It has all the information you may want to know about my device (HTC One X PROTOTYPE).
I really hope someone can help me update to jelly bean and get sense 5 as I am frustrated from failing and being stuck in bootloops
If you read all of this I honestly appreciate it and I Thank you for it, I hope you can help me!

all you need to do is flash the stock recovery from this post>>>>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140

The other way is manualy update your hboot to high version! Download from here firmware .zip for region 401 hboot1.31 and see what will happend

I flashed the asian ruu first because my CID used to be HTC__621 which requires TW ruu's (I tried the JB one) also on the back of my device it says made in Taiwan. But after flashing the rom it didn't work and put me in a bootloop so I changed my CID to 11111111 and flashed the European ruu ( I tried the JB one) which also didn't work and ended up putting me in a bootloop. It was my friends father who then changed my CID to HTC__001 and flashed the European ICS ruu which worked flawlessly. Do think I should flash the ruu you recommended? because its a ICS ruu and I'm trying to get to JB. Anyway I really thank you for trying to help me, you are the only one who replied to me
Look at this image it shows you that my device was made in Taiwan

Lock you are S-OFF try fastboot writecid HTC__032 i think is something like this and see what will happend after applay update. Or try manualy update with this RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe after changeing the CID
The other way is manualy update your hboot to high version! Download from here firmware .zip for region 401 hboot1.31 and see what will happend

I flashed the asian ruu first because my CID used to be HTC__621 which requires TW ruu's (I tried the JB one) also on the back of my device it says made in Taiwan. But after flashing the rom it didn't work and put me in a bootloop so I changed my CID to 11111111 and flashed the European ruu ( I tried the JB one) which also didn't work and ended up putting me in a bootloop. It was my friends father who then changed my CID to HTC__001 and flashed the European ICS ruu which worked flawlessly. Do think I should flash the ruu you recommended? because its a ICS ruu and I'm trying to get to JB. Anyway I really thank you for trying to help me, you are the only one who replied to me

Actually @Thant replied also, try what he suggests at the bottom of his post to update your hboot, it's a different one to the one you tried, then try a higher ruu

I am wondering why everyone, OP and those attempting to assist, are assuming that what is apparently a prototype model of the One X would even be compatible with the updates.
If it is a prototype, regardless of how it identifies itself, it may have differences that simply prevent ANY of these software versions from operating.
I think that is one possibility the OP may have to be prepared for.

That had crossed my mind actually, but he is receiving ota notifications and the results he posted from "getvar all" indicate everything is as it should be, same model number even.
I have come across an early prototype before and the only 2 differences were the casing and slightly larger headphone jack socket. AFAIK the hardware was the same. Unfortunately, the one I saw wasn't working so I don't know what version of android it had

I'm curious why you first chose an asian ruu for your first attempt and then got the european ruu. there is another ruu available but I need you to answer the above first.
I have to go to work now so I won't be able to answer you, there is another ruu available for version number, it's the 18th one down the list, release 974956 androidruu/?developer=Endeavor

No more RUU only stock rom or nandroid. You never find that RUU because HTC never release this RUU.

Ah, I see. Manual flashing stock rom is still ok anyway.
Thanks for the info, Thant

Need help updating phone... H3G User.

Im on the same version of Android since i got the phone, the bootloader is unlocked with S-ON and it has been working fine since i got it. I heard 5.1 had been released, is there a H3G RUU for the new version or can i use the Europeon one.. my CID Num is H3G__001.
Because i am rooted it says it cant check for updates, can anyone tell me what i can do?
I thought about restoring the original software RUU and then updating, but what if my service provider hasnt released the update, unless their is another H3G M9 user on the forum who can tell me different.
Thanks.

Your best bet is to S-OFF, then Super CID. After you have done that just restore the newest WWE RUU. That way you're on the latest version and can continue to receive any new updates a lot sooner - none of that waiting for the network to release the update. Especially with marshmallow round the corner.

Are their any other ways of doing it without S-Off?
Thanks

Other than the way you stated not really. If you don't want to go S-OFF then you'll need to restore stock and update, then root again.

Hey there buddy.
What the chance you backed up your stock H3G recovery.
I flashed TWRP and forgot to take a backup, now can't flash the update.
I posted in this forum asking in anyone had the UK H3G stock recovery but no answers.
Cheers.
