Why is that all I want to do is roll back from the OTA to the previous state before any OTA updates as I can no longer access the beats audio settings I have no interest yet in rooting the device with a custom firmware unless i really have to as like I said i am a complete noob to all this.

I need help on reverting my Desire HD back to stock.
For this I understand I need to flash stock ROM (RUU). In this case I need to flash RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which is the Indian version for DHD.
However, I am unable to find this RUU.
When installing a custom rom after having rooted my phone I did take a backup using rom manager. So I do have a backup of Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.720.5 which I can restore ... but I will still have root.
Question: Is there a way to remove root after I restore the backup and also remove ClockworkMod's recovery?
If the above is possible I can then update my phone to the latest firmware from HTC which I guess is 1.84.720.3.
Please help..
There's an unroot option in visinonary.

Yes there is... will try that and what about ClockworkMod's recovery? will that affect the OTA update that I try to apply after I use the unroot option?

Shouldn't do, I once tried something similar and everything was okay? The OTA's installed as they should. The problem is the RRU you require hasn't actually been released which is a shame as I would expect Shipped-Roms to have a copy.

This is not the first time... I had a similar problem with HTC Hero, the Indian(Airtel base) rom was never released for download and when rooting the first time I did not take a backup of the original rom coz of which I was unable to update using the OTA.
So you saying I should go ahead with the unroot process and the OTA can then be applied? I really want to do this since I am flashing my phone every alternate day with a new rom released at XDA.. either 2.2.1 or 2.3.. need to stop doing that .. atleast for a few months till HTC releases a stable 2.3 sense rom for DHD.

vickyclewis.. thanks for the direct file download... will check it out once out of office.
Also the steps mentioned for flashing this.... I found the below in one of your post:
=====================================================
PD98IMG's cannot be flashed via CWM Recovery. Rename the zip to "PD98IMG.zip" and place in the root of your SD card (not in any folder).
Turn off your phone, disable HTC Fastboot if it's enabled, and power on holding Volume Down. This should start the Bootloader and it should read the PD98IMG.zip and flash it for you.
=====================================================
I guess you need to mention that the user has to get to the bootloader to install this...
Thanks once again..
NO RUU_xxx.exe version for DHD india (Gingerbread)
Can any one tell why we dont have a RUU release like the one available for HTC Inspire 4G in HTC US website I could not find any such link for HTC Desire HD India

wont.. i tried using a goldcard and says: main version is older..
And running the RUU will result in nothing since my phone is branded qq lol
Why are you trying to remove it any way?
cause i need root and custom rom etc
Do you need to get s-on and stock hboot etc before running the RUU. I need to unroot so would running the 2.3 update be my quick and easy way to get it back to stock. I'm vodafone uk and don't have a goldcard lol

Hey Guys,
As you can see the name of the title, I have a HOX and I relocked the Bootloader and ran the Stock RUU and after doing that did a complete OTA update from ICS to Jellybean.
NOW... All i want is to root my phone again so that i can use Apps like CoreControl, Addfree etc.
Please tell me if I can root my phone again and how?

Thanks bro. I was looking for this answer on google and no had seem to do this... Full OTA and then root.
I think I would wait until someone makes a root method for Stock JB (OTA) on HTC One X

Yes and please do not forget to backup the original JB rom before you root and put a custom rom .... so you can go back to stock at any time, there is no RUU available yet to get it back to stock at the moment.
Edit : sorry i just saw that matt also gave the hint to back it up
Nandroid is ur best friend when coming to installing any ROM. Don't forget it. It'll save a lot of time if any problem is encountered.

How to find a ruu is for every cid number the same process ! And this process has been covered millions of times in the Q&A.there are also clear guides in the dev thread under stickies. It should be mandatory to read them before continuing.

I have received an upgrade from my network - Three UK - htc One X
I rooted my unlocked Evo 3D previously, but reading into One X root, I'm finding conflicting information and no straight forward solutions. I have had 2 software updates already - 4.0.4 now. Sense 4.1
Does it matter that I have these updates and that the phone came from the carrier?
Anyone know the best way to get it rooted, so that I can backup the stock Rom before choosing a custom?
Thanks

Please explain what you want ? Are on complete stock and want to update or are you on a custom rom and want to update ?
And is there still an update available or did you update it to the latest 4.0.4 sense 4.1 ?
I'm a little confused reading your text !
Update 4.0.4 comes with sense 4.1 this is one update not 2 separate updates !
Please give the proper info so i can help you with this
If you want to root you must unlock via HTC dev first . And second there are devs that has made it easy for you .there's apps in the dev section that will do it all for you here's one i found for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439 and once you install your recovery you would want to make a back up of your stock Rom

It is stock, just thought I'd mention that it updated to 4.0.4 recently. Wasn't sure if it would affect the rooting process.

You can still root it following the rooting instructions, there are even video guides for it. It is something everyone can successfully do

but Im S-OFF so I will lose the supercid if I flash RUU ?
and I read that I dont have too unlock bootloader if I S-OFF is that true ?
Yes you need to unlock the bootloader before you can flash !
Edit :
You won't loose s-off by unlocking the bootloader. The possibility is there when you install a ruu.....
so how exactly S-OFF help me here ? XD
thatp pretty weird before i take my HOX to fix it was on Relock cause I opened the bootloader then relock to use waranty and now it says LOCKED no RELOCKED how is this possible ?
and how the technican made my device S-OFF and SUEPRCID 1111111 ?
That's something i don't know exactly, they probably have HTC certified methods of unlocking and relocking to fix certain locked partitions of the phone.

ok so if I want to flash rom I dont need to flash the kernel (boot.img) because I S-OFF Right ?
and if I want to go back to stock I can't flash RUU file because it will change my Super Cid to regular Cid ?

Lets assume that to be safe. Always do it via a firmware flash or a stock nandroid backup. Just to be safe.
And yes you don't need to flash the boot.img manually. But as additional info :
A lot of devs have taken out the script that flashes the boot.img when installing the rom. So with a lot of roms you still have to flash the boot.img with fastboot commands.
and one more question super cid devices (non rooted or bootloader unlocked) get OTA updates faster then other cids ?
and if I go back to stock via RUU it wont change my device to S-ON right ? and there's anyway to bring the Super cid back ?
