I'm a newbie but i just bought an htc one x international version and i guess from my constant flashing im totally stuck on the htc bootscreen and im sure i've tried everything there is to try but nothing although the roms all flash as well as the boot image, i've given up and am going to return my phone back to factory state and i've read i need an RUU but i don't want to flash the wrong one and i don't know which is the right one for my phone:
CID: HTC_622 not sure what that means but if someone can point me in the right direction or tell me how to even tell the proper one from the cid#. i'd really appreciate it.
please and thank you
paul
We need the main version to determine what ruu you exactly need....
Fastboot getvar version-main
Please post the result
You may also refer to this thread to determine which RUU you need.
622 should be .708

It's a list of RUUs, and he can just search his CID (with Ctrl + F) to get the download. Thought that would get him his RUU faster rather than having to wait for somebody to find out for him. Apologies for any harm done.

No mate its NOT a list of ruu's....its a list of nandroid backups. Installing them is completely different from a ruu ! No harm is done mate, don't worry. But its kinda wrong info.
A ruu, Rom Update Utility is an .exe file which you eexecute from the pc to the phone in bootloader mode with a locked bootloader which will flash back everything to stock for you. A nandroid backup has to be installed like a rom. Flashing the boot.img, wiping the phone and restoring the nandroid with a custom recovery

If I'm not wrong, the version should be 3.14.708.28 for CID__622.

Yes that is possible, but we need his main version to determine his hboot version. If he is on a older hboot than 1.12 then a 3.14 ruu will not work. If its released in the first place. Because of the big difference in updating the hboot from such a low one to a very high one. It all stands and falls depending the version number.
And when he is still on a 1.12 hboot we can't use a 3.14 nandroid backup

That's not possible .... A number like 3.14.708.** should come out of that and not the CID
Phone in the bootloader and the command
Fastboot getvar version-main
From the command prompt on the pc in the fastboot folder
and once i find the proper RUU is there a good simple tutorial in here somewhere? this is my second phone in as many weeks i recently bricked my fav phone my galaxy s2 and dont want that to happen to this one cause new unlocked phones aren't cheap.

DLing the files now but about this JB HBoot? do i just flash that same as the nan backup? any particular order to flash them?
i've read the thread and doesn't cover my concern. theres 2 files for me, nan backup and jb hboot and both have boot.img do i do them both one at a time flashing each boot image? sorry for all the questions this is last one
looks like im just restoring from a backup (nandroid) i'm going to try but i have tried to restore from 3 backups on my phone through cwm already and im still stuck at the htc boot screen hope this works.
I am currently using Mikes latest ROM.
I want to sell the phone, so I'll need restore root etc. I cant do this, as I cant find the same or lower RUU for my phone.
I also cant find a stock nandroid backup for VODAP001.
Is this a total loss, or is there anyone out there that can help.

Your CID can't be VODAP01 check again missing one number, and YES there are nandroid if your CID is VODAP001

Would you know if it's okay to flash the ATT RUU onto a device purchased in Taiwan? I'm guessing it's all the same hardware?
Also I guess I have to change the CID of the device for the RUU to allow the flash. Would you know what the CID of the ATT version is?
Thanks again!

Oh no I am sorry I forgot to upload the nandroid for you! I will have that up for you in about a hour os or, and as far as I know with S-On you can not flash a different RUU but I would assume that if we had S-Off that you could use atts RUU. We would also need S-Off to change the cid but atts is CWS__001
EDIT: its up again!

So I purchased the phone from somone, but the person who sold the phone to me also had a previous owner who rooted the phone and installed a rom. So as I deleted all the files for the person, something must have happened because ever since then, the wifi is not responding. It cannot search any routers nor does it turn on. So I am trying to return the phone to stock condition, but the process was a bit too hard for me to understand. Can someone explain it a bit easy for someone who does not know a lot about HTC devices and rooting?
So far, when I enter recovery mode, I get
Tampered Unlocked M8UL PVT SHIP S-OFF CID-HTC_622 HBOOT-3.16.0.0000 RADIO-1.16.21331831.A16G OpenDSP-v38.2.2-00542-M8974.0311 OS- eMMC-boot 2048MB May 20 2014
I think I wiped the recovery program(TWRP) or something because all I get is a red triangle with an exclamation point. I had done the getvar but I did not get any info in the main version part. So far I have installed the Maximus HD 9.0.0 rom. The radio is fine. Text, phone call, data all seems to work, but the only thing that is not working is the wifi. What steps should I take to return the phone to stock so that I don't have to worry about rooting and stock roms? As always, thanks for the feedback everybody! I had so much help from you guys!

Your wifi isn't working because you are running a 4.4.4 ROM with 4.4.2 firmware. Look for a 4.4.2 based ROM, or update your firmware.
You can download the last(newest) 4.4.2 based Maximus HD ROM from here.

So is it possible to get a rom with a 4.4.2 and get an OTA from that ROM to a 4.4.4? Or does that not work. And also, I think I may have wiped the Recovery Program(TWRP?) and I think I need to install that again. Thanks for the help.

You will never get an OTA on a custom ROM. The problem is your model (Hong Kong). I'm not sure if you will be able to find stock backups or an RUU to return to stock to take the OTAs.
Hook up the phone to your PC, start up ADB/fastboot, and issue the command fastboot getvar all and post the readout here. I'll see if I can find something for you to return to stock. Edit out the serial no and IMEI from the readout for your own security.

Thanks for the help, but the only problem that I have with the RUU and the stock backup is that I am confused on how to install them. Can you help me with distinguishing between them? I saw that when you want your m8 stock Google, you need to have some sort of Google RUU but that is as far as I know regarding RUU and Stock backups.

The RUUs aren't from Google, they are from HTC. I'm not sure if you'll find one for the Hong Kong model or not. The same applies for returning to stock using the stock ROM and recovery backups that are available here. You could also update your firmware manually since you are S-Off, but until I see a getvar, I can't point you in the right direction.

Okay. The link I provided in my last post has a stock backup for you. Choose the ones from CID HTC_622. You will need the one for 1.60.708.2 and the TWRP version for it installed in your phone. Put it into your backup folder and flash it. (full instructions are on that thread) Then you will need to flash the stock recovery from that thread. I couldn't find one to match. You might have to look elsewhere. You will be able to get the OTAs after that.
Or you could change to SuperCID (lots of instructions for that on XDA) and change your MID (Model ID, also lots of instructions here ~ change to 0P6B10000), then update manually with WWE firmware. You may be able to run WWE without changing your MID, but I can't confirm that. My MID is 0P6B12000, and I was able to flash international WWE firmware myself. Hope this helps.

Sure. To go back to stock to get the OTAs, you need a stock ROM and stock recovery. I could find a stock ROM backup from that thread for your device, but not a stock recovery that matched. You will have to find that one on your own.

Hi! After some searching, I have found the file, but I am not really sure on what to do. The link that you provided me really did not explain a lot. I am a bit confused on the part where I got the zip, but don't know really what to do. I got the zip that you wanted me, the HTC 622 one with the 1.6.0XXX and you told me to put it in a recovery folder(?). Do I have to put it in there or is it something I can flash right off my sd card? Is the zip something that I put in the TWRP folder? I really tried to google it, but all I get is how I can use RUU on H BOOT to install TWRP or something. Thanks for the help.
Edit 1. Sorry, I forgot to mention the zip! The stock nandroid backups. I got that, but the recovery that you mentioned, I really got lost trying to look for it. Is it possible to just flash the nandroid backup without the boot loader locked but S-off with the TWRP and get the stock ROM?

Okay. So I did a little research and came up with an official HTC RUU for your phone. As far as I know, it is the latest for the Hong Kong version (4.4.3). I say as far as I know because I don't deal with HK versions very often here.
Hook up to your PC and get into ADB/fastboot.
Download the official RUU from HTC's website by clicking here.
When the download is finished, double click it and choose run, (it's an .exe formatted file) then follow the prompts.
But please relize that running the RUU will WIPE EVERYTHING, so backup anything that you have that you don't want to lose.

When I click on the link I get a .zip file with two .tar.gz files inside. No exe file. Am I missing something?
Hello, been looking for a way to return to stock xx.xxx.709.xx with cid_621. I'm on developer firmware atm and the only way to return is by flashing a RUU, but unfortunatly I've not been able to find any. Any help would be highly appriciated. Doesn't matter which version just a RUU for 709 works. Thanks
I assume your device is S-Off, if not how can you have Developer Edition firmware on it, right ?
Why do you need a RUU to revert to stock ? You can simply restore a 4.24.709.3 backup and its stock recovery then do OTA to 6.12.709.4
You can get all the needed files here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
If you insist to install RUU, there is one untested but a very old RUU, means if it is successful installed .. you need to do a lot .. a lot of OTA up to 6.12.709.4
You can find it here, it listed on top and it's a RUU zip, not exe - http://androidruu.com/?developer=M8
