There is no ruu for that, but there is a nandroid backup of the stock rom you can use

Thanks mate. the restore worked and I was able to get the phone back working. Now to do some backups
I had previously been trying to restore to stock in order to bring it back to the shop under warranty (yellow/brown patch on screen on top right).
Thanks

Just trid that to version 1-28 I think and I'm getting the dreaded red triangle
I thought that was a clean versio so maybe something else is wrong. Any ideas?
Uhm wait .... You flashed back a 1.28 stock recovery on a 3.14 rom. That's not going to work.
And what is your goal now actually after the restore ?
And where do you get a red triangle ? When you boot up the phone or when you try to enter the stock recovery ?
When you enter a stock recovery there will always be a warning sign like you describe, we are not supposed to go in there
This is a stock 3.14 recovery

OK, I have now flashed 3.14 and booted into it. first time around it showed the normal icon for a while and then restored my system. Second time around when I booted into recovery is shows the red triangle over the image of a screen. Flashing CWM seems to be ok.
bootloader version: 1.36.0000
version-main: 3.14.161.27
cid: has changed to VODAP001
Should I startt again from the nandroid?
My aim is to fully restore the phone to stock and then lock it before I bring it back to the shop for hardware repair on the yellow/brown patch.
Does the phone boot up properly ?
I don't know if there is a nandroid that also matches your cid ?
Fastboot oem readcid
Will tell the real cid.
Do that and we check if there is one actually available.

yep, it boots ok into wwm (after reflash) and into the main system but not into recovery if I flash stock.
I can make calls etc and everything seems normal.
Only software issue now seems to be that I can't flash stock recovery successfully
So when you flash the stock recovery the phone does not boot ?
Oke give the cid with the command, lets check that out
Crap....you wrote it in the title....overread it all the way !!!
I have an idea that might work !
Get the nandroid 2.17.161 vodap 001 and restore that one completely !
Then flash back this recovery
https://www.dropbox.com/s/wbav46spkbznovp/stock recovery 2.17.img
Then boot up the phone and update with official ota.
It worked before with and O2 nandroid .... Its worth a shot mate

Phone itself works with stock recovery but it won't boot into stock recovery itself without red triangle.
I've just been trying to change the cid with "fastboot oem writecid VODAP019" but I keep gettin either "too many links" or "unknow error". Itried tried but with the phone locked and unlocked :crying:
I'll keep trying to see if that will let me flash the stock recovery successfully and boot into it.
Mick
Hahaha that's the trick, the stock recovery is supposed to give you that warning sign ! That is absolutely normal. When you see that triangle screen you press volume - and power and it should enter the stock recovery. (Could also be volume +, can't recall it in my mind atm)
And you can't write a cid, we need S-OFF to do that .....

Yeah that's because the stock recovery can't mount it, the error is also normal. There is not much to do with the stock recovery.....
If the updates go well you het back the original stock JB rom and cid back !
Is it working .... the updates ?

Hi, the updates took a long time to download. Everything is now working and back to stock.

Good ! Hope you get the fix sorted too :thumbup:
CASE CLOSED !
Sorry for reviving an old thread. But this one seems closest to what I'm stuck on, so hopefully someone can help.
I was running a viperX rom on my htc one X for quite sometime, after updating the rom it was working fine but all of a sudden it stopped picking up any mobile network. Stupidly I deleted everything from recovery (cache, data on the sd card, the android OS, everything!). - No backup unfortunately.
I read about going back to stock, re-locked the bootloader and attempted to install via an RUU. My HTC One X is exactly the same as the one by mccmick, running 3.14.161.27 of the HTC software. Can't find an RUU for it anywhere.
But what do I do now? It ran out of battery, so I used command prompt to get the phone to change a little bit, then re unlocked the bootloader using hasoon2000's tool kit and installed the lastest version of CWM recovery so the phone can charge via mains.
There is no root access on the phone at the moment, can't access the internal sd card to put any ROM or superSU files on there. Mounting the sdcard for usb use via recovery does not work.
How do I resolve? I can't put a nondroid backup to the phone. Ideally I would like to go back to stock, but even if I can just install a rom and get everything working again, I'd be very happy.
Is there any command prompts I can use to send files over to the phone? Send a kernel, rom and root files over?
Should mention my phones cid is VODAP001 and running 3.14.161.27.

Hi to all,
Good day to all who is reading and helping.
I am not very sure if this question have been asked before but looking at the first few pages of tread, I did not come across this question, else i am pretty much blind. heehee.
I am having this problem with my rooted HTC One X (asia version). Previously I could go into the recovery mode in Hboot to perform backup and recovery but recently when I select recovery at Hboot, the phone with show a logo of a phone surrounded by green circular arrows and followed by a logo of a phone with a huge exclamation mark. It will remain so until I press and hold the power button to restart the phone.
The phone is working fine otherwise.
Is there any way for me to get the recovery to work again? I am using clockwork mod btw.
Could any bro or sis help me with the above issue?
Thank you all in advance.
Cheers
It seems to me that you have the stock recovery installed. You can flash the cwm custom recovery again.....
Or did u get a notification from an update to JB in your running OS. Boot it up and check if you have an update waiting.

What do you mean by stock recovery installed?
Yes, I have a JB update waiting to be installed.
Previously I have to go through some steps to prevent my rooting from being wipe out before performing an OTA update and one of them is to head into the recovery of Hboot before running some app to prevent the removal of root.
Just a quick info, I did not install custom rom on my phone, just a stock rooted phone.
Thank you.
If everything is 100% stock except the recovery , you have to flash the stock recovery back. It tries to update to JB but it runs in an error because of the (what i assume now) custom cwm recovery

No, I have not perform the JB update yet.
I am just trying to access the recovery at HBoot but got that error.
Is there a way to check if it is stock recovery or custom cwm recovery?
Thank you.
Don't know really, well if you flash the stock recovery over the existing one you will have for certain the stock
And if you downloaded the update it will continue to try to update everytime you enter the recovery, you said you are using clockworkmod recovery (5.8.4.0 ?)

Hi MarcelHofs,
I dont think so, it should either be 5.8.2.7 or 5.8.3.1.
I just hope to upgrade to JB without losing my root.

If you go into HBOOT and select recovery and you are getting those green arrows, you have the right recovery for installing the JB stock OTA so you don't need CWM yet, Does it say relocked or locked at the top of the HBOOT screen mate?
If it's unlocked, run the command, "fastboot oem lock" as you need to have the HBOOT locked with stock recovery installed for the OTA to install
Also the OTA won't delete any apps or settings
---------- Post added at 03:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------
Actually, that exclamation mark you are mentioning is ringing alarm bells, you may need to reflash the stock recovery via fastboot, can you post a pic of the recovery screen you get? I will be home in an hour and can upload the file you need

Yes it is unlock.
At HBOOT, the green arrows is follow by a red exclamation mark if I select recovery, so I can still install JB OTA?
To run the command, my phone have to be in fastboot mode?

Hi MarcelHofs,
Thanks for taking time to look into my problem.
Hey, you have a great day at work thought overtime doesn't sound too nice a thing.
Cheers and thanks again.
Hi home now
what you need to do is put the attachment into your fastboot folder (where your unlocktoken.bin was when you unlocked your bootloader.)
Since your bootloader is unlocked, boot your phone into fastboot and then connect it to your pc
open a command prompt and link it to your fastboot folder (cd c:\fastboot - or whatever your path to this folder is)
then type the command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed_1.28.img
then type the command
fastboot oem lock
your Hboot/bootloader should then say relocked at the top and you will have the stock recovery installed.
reboot the phone, download the update and before long you should be basking in the fabled JB goodness
let me know if any problems

no worries bro
Back home !
Are we sure he needs the 1.28 stock recovery and not for example the 2.17 stock recovery.....these are different ?!
Please do this command in fastboot USB mode
Fastboot getvar version-main and post the result ....if it starts with 2.17 you need this recovery
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
I am Android version 4.0.4 and apparently my HTC is HTC_622
sense 4.1
software: 2.17.708.7
I got an OTA update to 4.1 (software update:3.14.708.28 to be exact) and after I wait for it to download and I let it update, problems start to happen.
I had CWM recovery before so I flashed back stock recovery (the 622 from here : http://d-h.st/users/ClydeB1/?fld_id=8386#files ) and tried to update. I made it to the recovery and see the green arrow icon with the loading bar. But when it loads to a 1/4 or about 1/3, it green icon changes to the red exclamation and then it just freezes. Then I have to soft reboot. I load back to my original stock ROM and the update is not applied (obviously). I am unsure about what's going on. I also tried flashing this recovering :http://d-h.st/yDf and it did not work either. I tried this recovery because my current software is 2.17 but then the OTA update is 3.14 For both recoveries, I've tried with the boot loader locked/unlocked and I still have no luck.
Am I doing something wrong? I need to be in full stock to apply the OTA right? So then I Just flashed the stock recovery and relocked the bootloader.
I'm just glad it isn't boot looping like before. Thanks in advance.

I have the exate same problem, but mi CID its the HTC__001 from UK. I don't understand whats happening!
This is def the right recovery you need

If you made any changes to the rom (like removing bloatware) the update will also fail !

Get your cid and main version
Fastboot OEM readcid
Fastboot getvar version-main
And check the nandroid collection in the general thread, if it's there you download it and restore it ! After that flash the stock recovery and check for the update again !

My CID it's HTC__001, but was bought in expansys, and came from UK, the main version i got to look.
I talk in the chat with HTC yestarday, and they told me that the update for my version only comes out monday, 24 of December, because my phone had come from the UK. But i told her that i already had the update available, but it gave me an error in the instalation...that's when she told me to make a factory reset, and it didn't work.
Thanks for your help.
Do the getvar command, you might be trying to use the wrong recovery...that or get the 1.36 FW from the dev section and then relock and flash the 3.14.401.27 RUU
hi, i need help with this.
QUick run down on my story, bought the phone and found out that it is rooted so wanted to go back to stock and ended up getting it stuck on fastboot loop.
Im only new to this and found the thread in developers area with guidance on how to fix this but im getting very confused as to what i need to do and what files i need downloaded including ruu, im from AU and there isnt many ruus for voda 021 floating around. I would be happy tho if i can flash it to same rooted state as it was as long i get it working again.
Can someone give me some pointers pls, the way that thread with instruction is written is very hard for me to understand because some basic steps are skipped prob because orger understand them but im very nooby and cant work with it

ok, i think you've tried to flash a stock rom without flashing a stock recovery !!.
do you have fasboot adb on your pc ?
you need to unlock your bootloader and re flash a custom recovery
if not search the dev section for a tool that will unlock your boot and re-flash a custom recovery for you-all the instructions are on there.
once you have re unlocked and flashed a custom recovery,go into recovery and see if there are any backups of the previous rom (nand)
see if that works ..

Get your nandroid backup there,(the vodap021 2.17) you need to flash the boot.img file from that nandroid with fastboot commands, then do a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid.
But you still have to fix the fastboot part right ? You need to install android SDK/java SDK and the HTC drivers. Then you have to put the phone in the bootloader and open a commandprompt from inside the folder where the adb/fastboot files are located ...they are in a subfolder in the installed javaSDK install folder

Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery

Get your nandroid backup there,(the vodap021 2.17) you need to flash the boot.img file from that nandroid with fastboot commands, then do a full wipe in recovery and restore the nandroid.
But you still have to fix the fastboot part right ? You need to install android SDK/java SDK and the HTC drivers. Then you have to put the phone in the bootloader and open a commandprompt from inside the folder where the adb/fastboot files are located ...they are in a subfolder in the installed javaSDK install folder

Thanks, it is beginning to make some sense to me now.
So first bit I got to do is the fastboot issue, which is tha last bit you mentioned right?
And after unlock boot loader than flash the recovery with one you provided in the link, tx
So that means I will go back to stock right?
Yes unlock, flash custom recovery, flash boot.img, full wipe in recovery, restore the nandroid, flash back the stock recovery .....
And yes this way you go back to stock and i will also give you the download link for the stock recovery. This one is the last you flash after restoring everything

Then you are able to update to JB from within the phones software update menu :thumbup:
Ps you do not have to relock the bootloader anymore !

Please guys, iWe spent all day trying to figure it out, after wipe phone reboots constantly and when if boot screen it's not charging so I'm prob going to run out of battery in a couple of hours
You restore through the custom recovery. Power+vol , choose recovery. If you flashed the recovery ok then you can do from in there. Ie mount usb, copy over your nand backup and restore it. You may have to flash the boot.img using fastboot.

Hi, I'm trying to restore my phone back to stock firmware with the ability to update through the usual HTC update route (directly on the phone). I have attempted RUU RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_1.1204.71.08_release_249238_signed and RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed but neither work. Both error with error 140.
It's running hboot 1.39
How can I get it back to stock?
Post you main version !
Fastboot getvar version-main

Cid is not important they are all wwe. After an update its all good again.
Don't forget to flash back the stock recovery too after restoring.

I grabbed one off the the thread full of them (it didn't have the same number so I tried 3.14) however I can't get Clockwork to restory it, and the other recovery has no touch input on this version of the phone?
Thanks for the help
Ah just saw your edit, thanks for the link I'll try that now

Worked perfectly thank you, will I need to relock my bootloader or anything like that?
No not for a update. Leave it unlocked. But don't forget the stock recovery before updating
I've put on the stock recovery and boot (as the viper one has no network on stock rom) ready for whenever the next update comes out, thanks for your help
No problem :thumbup:
CASE CLOSED !
So my HTC One X is having issues were the screen sometimes just does't turn on at all (stays black) it started of with massive graphical artifacts all across the screen and now it will turn on from time to time but is not very reliable.
I had Cyanogenmod installed and from what I have read I had to get it back to stock to receive warranty. I had a backup from before installing cyanogenmod, so I just ran a restore on it and the phone now has the old HTC Sense, however it will not connect to any network and will not turn the Wi-fi on for some reason.
My questions are the following.
Do you think I need to get the network/wi-fi working again to receive repairs under warranty ??
Here is the phones' current state : (See image file in attachements)
With android 4.1.1 htc sense. Apart from re-locking the bootloader and flashing the old recovery software do I need to do anything else to get the warranty repairs ?
Thanks in advance!! Ask me anything if needed, will answer asap.
Did you flash the boot image for the backup
Sent from my One X using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Not sure if I have to be honest, but then wouldn't the phone just get stuck on a boot loop if the boot img was incorrect ?
If you are not sure you didn't .... Flash the boot.img from the nand, make a full wipe and restore the nand.
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!! :highfive:
I just assumed that if the phone was starting that I didn't have too flash the boot.img.
I have followed this guide androidauthority.com/one-x-revert-stock-recovery-76854/
to get the stock recovery back on the phone.
Do I need to do anything else other then re-locking the bootloader for the warranty repairs to go through fine ?
Also as far as I know it will say that the bootloader is "Relocked" not that it is "Locked" does that matter ?
We can't make it locked only relocked. If it's hardware issues they should provide warranty just fine. But we can't tell that for sure

How can I check what recovery I have installed. I can't reboot the phone into recovery mode as it never displays anything on the screen when I try and do that (probably due to the hardware issue that I am having), is there and adb or other command that I could use for this ?
Give the outcome of fastboot getvar version-main

Also I still have the SuperSu app installed but I no longer have root access so I can't delete it now. Should I just leave it ?
Flash this one over and it's fine

And yes delete the su , always good to do

Got an issue, now that it's 4.2.2 there doesn't seem to be a way of rooting your device and I can't go back to the older version since I have stock recovery, and can't install CWM recovery either because I don't have root access ;/
I tried using this knowyourmobile.com/htc/htc-one/17426/how-root-your-htc-one-x
to root and now phone is stuck on boot loop, damn
Ok, so I have managed to get CWR back onto the phone but now I have no way of putting the old recovery image onto the phones because of the boot loop, so I can't restore the old nandroid.
Wait.....you got your stock backup ? Enter the recovery, make a full wipe and restore the nand.

Right I got rid of everything and flashed the recovery img you linked too, but when I try to go into recovery through the bootloader I get a red triangle with an exclamation mark. I might just leave it like that or is that an issue ? OTA works fine.
What you see there is the warning sign of the stock recovery
