Android 4.0.3
Software 1.15.401.1
I want to install RUU to receive OTA. I have rooted the phone but have not flashed a custom firmware. I have twrp 2.3.1.0 recovery and have backed up my stock rom. I am very luck to have s-off but i dont want to install a custom rom yet. I have been doing alot of reading and have not figured the right way of doing this.
Do i need to relock the bootloader even if i have s-off? Don't know why i unlocked it in the first place!
Do i need to install a stock recovery or can i keep twrp 2.3.1.0 or will the RUU do this for me?
I was going to flash this RUU first RUU 1.26.401.2 if i do flash this will s-off change to s-on?
Can someone inform me the right way about doing this. Appreciate the help.
thanks
You don't have to relock bootloader to receive OTA. And please do not run a RUU. You'll lose superCID(111111).
If you want to receive OTA, you'll need the stock recovery..... TWRP will not work.

nooo you will not use your s-off & supercid for sure !!!
I did this a week ago to recieve ota
relock you bootloader just in case then run ota as administrator your s-off & supercid will not change !!!
RUU has nothing to do with changing your phone to S-ON or your cid
we s-offers dont have to worry about cids
Im s-off too lol
if you need something pm me
good luck
Thanks a mill for help on jelly bean now

You keep repeating it, it'll make him move quicker.
If your phone is not receiving the OTA 4.2.2 update...it has not yet rolled out for your current CID/country/carrier/whatever. It is rolling out and if you wait you get it.
Or install a custom ROM if you don't want to wait.
Thank you
And ...no....you do not have to relock the bootloader to get and install ota's

Hi..
I have just bought a new HOX with 4.0.4 and sense 4.1 build no. 2.17, CID HTC__038 INDIA.
My Question is if i unlock BL, get CWM recovery and Root it now what will be the preparations i have to do for getting OTA OFFICIAL JB Update, which is expected in recent time.
Will i need to unroot it and relock BL or anything like that.
Another thing if i get a Custom JB rom from XDA, what will i need to do in that case.
Any Help is Appreciated.
Sorry for being NooB but just got the device and not knowing much about it, tried searching but nothing relevant found in HOX forum.

1- to get the OTAs you need to be on stock, so you will need to run a RUU and flash stock boot.img and stock recovery
2- to install JB custom roms you will need to upgrade your firmware to HBOOT 1.28/1.31 and then you can flash pretty much every JB rom
Stock
And what if is everything stock except unlocked bootloader??

In this situation you are able to receive and install official OTA's.
Stock boot.img
Stock rom
Stock recovery
Unlocked bootloader
In this way it's possible

So, if i flash a Custom JB now, i will have to get back to stock rom using RUU (with locked/unlocked BL), if i want OTA update.
Is that right..?

Thanks. I've rooted phone two months ago and retun it to stock just like you said, with a nandroid backup, stock and recovery flashed from the exact same backup. Found that somewhere. I've asked that question because my friend told me that update wont work with unlocked bootloader.

If you update your hboot and flash a custom JB rom you are stuck with that until a JB RUU is released. There is none at the moment
If you want to do a official JB OTA you have to get back to stock
1 or with a RUU
2 the method i posted before
Update with pc ?
My advice at this moment is to stay on stock (run it for a while and see there are no problems with the device) wait for the official JB update and start rooting and installing a custom rom after that. Until then you can read and learn more and more about flashing and rooting

Sorry to jump in on your thread, i've updated my HBOOT to the lastest version and flashed a custom JB i wish to return to stock so i can sell the phone. Can i flash an ICS RUU that matches my CID to return it to stock or so i have to wait for a JB RUU to appear?
I tried following that guide down the page but the download link for the "custom RUU" is dead.

No you can not. Downgrading a hboot with a ruu is (still) impossible. Phone has to be s-off. You are stuck on a custom rom until a JB ruu is released

1: no the official update will update the hboot
2: bootloader can stay unlocked
3: root can stay, you will lose it after the official update . After the update you can root it again like you did on the ics rom

Thank you.
I got my phone from T-mobile and i unlocked bootloader, rooted and S-off no problem. A couple days ago i updated the firmware to the latest 1.57.531.7. At the time i didn't know how hard it was to s-off new firmware. Using one of the toolkits, i tried to change to SuperCID and i think i accidentally clicked on the s-on button! Because when trying to change CID, i got an error. I booted to bootloader and it says "S-ON"
I tried doing firewater again but whelped out.
So now am i just stuck?
Can i tried to downgrade firmware to the one i had before and will that brick my phone?
Well, you can't downgrade firmware with the device S-On [emoji85]

You can downgrade firmware running a previous RUU or flashing a previous firmware zip or just the bootloader.

I did it the following way: after obtaining s-off and changin the CID to WWE HTC__102 I flashed the 1.54.10 Rom with TWRP and after this the corresponding firmware. At last using fastboot oem rebootRUU I flashed the update "1.54.401.10 -> 2.22.401.4".
Hope it helps

Flashing the Rom you have to use a custom recovery e.g. TWRP. But if you flash the firmware the recovery will be overwritten by the stock recovery which you can't use to flash one of the backups which you need to install the 2.22.401.4 OTA later on.

soo i just did it
for anyone who is reading this thread, that's the way i did it:
coming from FW 1.70.111.1, Cid: T-Mob102, Unlocked Boatloader
- Installation TWRP
- Supersu.zip root
- Backup
- Transfered Rom to device
- tried firewater -> fail
- s-off with sunshine -> ok but 16€... no big deal, thanks to the team
- supercid
- flashed modded 2.22 FW (without red warnings at startup) thanks to: http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-cu...od-25-07-2014-fimware-hboot-2-22-401-4-a.html this fw does not contain a recovery, so twrp was still there
- flashed rom
---> working phone
thanks to all of you
Ok so by flashing the firmware, I won't lose any data correct? I'm on 1.54.401.5. Already rooted, twrp,su, the normal stuff. Just not supercid.

Correct. By flashing the new FW you won't loose any data. You just got to reflash the custom recovery after flashing the new FW.

HI
first thanks for taking the time to help me i really appreciate it
i have an htc m8 ,m8_ul, , s-on ,unlocked bootloader, cid htc_621 , hboot 3.19 , radio 1.22
device currenly bricked but can access booloader and recovery (used to have a 5.0 rom)
i want to upgrade to latest lollipop version can i do that with s-on?
how can i do it?
thanks in advance guys
help much appreciated
by latest lollipop i would assume sense6 and not cm12.
I have installed cm12 on my m8 for a few month now. Getting the latest ATT update has been a pain so far as I cannot downgrade to kitkat.
if you are on a kitkat version then go to setting -> about -> check for updates and you are good to go. just make sure to use wifi.
yes i want sense 6
So i will restore the stock backup
flash stock recovery
Relock bootloader then get ota?
But with my cid will i get the latest updates?

Mostly correct, but you don't need to relock the bootloader (nor do I recommend you do so).
You'll get the latest OTA for your CID. I am not clear what you mean by "latest updates". If you intend is to be on the stock ROM for your CID, you don't want a more recent update for another carrier.
