[TUT] Re-flash stock ROM (RUU) after bricking a rooted device (for noobs)

Before you start, you will need to set up your computer to properly recognize the phone. You probably did this when rooting originally, but just in case... Install SDK tools for Android, Java runtime, and HTC Sync.
About HTC Sync: The only reason you need HTC Sync installed is for the USB drivers that come with it. But the program itself has been known to cause conflicts. Make sure that HTC Sync is not running in the background by opening Task Manager in Windows and killing it if you find it lurking in there.
Here we go:
1. Download the correct RUU (ROM Update Utility) for your device from androidfiles.org. Make sure you download a Primo_C RUU for a CDMA device (no sim card) or a Primo_U RUU for a GSM device (uses a sim card)!! Also make sure you get the correct RUU for your carrier.
2. Charge the battery above 50% or for at least one hour. If the battery dies during the flashing process, you could hard brick the phone!
3. Run the RUU until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, find the temporary folder it created. (Open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar.) There will be two folders with long encrypted names. In one of them you will find ROM.zip. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img or recovery_signed.img. Put it in the location were you've installed Android SDK tools. This is the stock HTC Recovery and it is needed to run the RUU.
4. Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.
5. Open a command prompt in Windows and navigate to the folder where you installed Android SDK tools. Flash the stock recovery extracted in step 3 above using the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
or
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
6. Relock the bootloader using the following command:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
7. Re-run the RUU. It will restore the device to it's original condition, locked (though *** RELOCKED ***) and unrooted.
Once the install is done you'll have unlock the bootloader again using the token you already have from the first time, reflash CWM Recovery and re-root. All this will be 10x easier than the first time.
If you do re-root your phone, be 100% you backup the stock ROM in ClockworkMod Recovery before making changes!

Hi
Thanks for that perfect decsription exactly when I needed it
I just had a weired effect with my new windows 7 laptop that I want to share.
I installed the USB drivers and "fastboot devices" showed my HTC fine
but even flashing the stock recovery image was not working.
So it was stucking in the "Sending" part and never continued.
I then moved to my old laptop with Vista did exactly the same things
and there it worked without problems.
I disabled virus scanner, checked for htsync and used the original USB cable
without success.
But now I know why I normally never touch Windows and only
work on linux

Use the correct RUU package for your device

Another way of saying it is that you downloaded the wrong RUU for your device.

not working
it keeps on saying waiting for device n does not proceed further
i tried installing the drivers again but that doesnt help either

"Waiting for Device" at fastboot usually related to bootloader driver. You need Android USB Driver

Hi folks,
I've bought my One V in late may and I had 2.08 ROM.
Now I've tested some roms and I wanted to revert back to stock rom.
I've downloaded RUU_PRIMO_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_2.08.401.2_Radio_20.72.30.0833U_3831.17.00.18_M_release_263376_signed, and got recovery_signed and boot_signed images. Then I've went to fastboot, did flash recovery and boot partitions, and oem locked bootloader. Afterwards I booted my phone and entered PIN. Then I fired up RUU*.exe file, and I have 155 error. What the heck? Something I missed?
greetings!

Flashing RUU to revert to stock
- you must have the correct RUU for your device.
- if you are not sure, download CID Getter from Play Store and run it, it will show your CID.
- with your CID, you may be able to find a correct RUU for your device
then (even though some people may not agree with this, but this will bring no harm and it is noob-proof) do this:
1- flash a stock recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
2- flash a stock boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
3- re-lock bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
4- flash RUU
NOTE: There is no boot/reboot and enter pin in between.

[Q] Start anew

Hello,
To start off, I want to say that I DID search on this forum, for similar threads, and while I did find some, I couldn't find out how to do it.
My Phone:
HTC One X
S-ON
Rooted
Locked bootloader
ROM: Android Revolution HD
CID: HTC__E11
I flashed my current ROM a while ago, but I really cannot remember doing it and I deleted the backup I made before flashing (I always back up before flashing) because I thought I was running the stock ROM (without trouble) and I needed space.
What I want to do now, is get rid of EVERYTHING and just reset it to what it was when I first booted it, when that's all done, I want to root it again and unlock the bootloader.
The problem is that I can't find the appropriate RUU. I've been looking for it for a good while now, but I can't seem to find it.
I've downloaded OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27-2.17.401.2_release_298985n1wwcwzs385c0bvz.zip from
htcruu.com/ index.php?dir=Endeavor (not allowed to put links here, sorry) and I put that in my SDCard directory.
When I tried to flash it (I don't know whether I am supposed to or not, but I only got a .zip and no .exe...) it did not work.
If you need the error, tell me and I'll do it again.
Regards,
Pim

If you can't find a ruu, you can use a stock nandroid backup. You can find a collection of them at general if I remember correctly.

The ruu doesn't work because it's an OTA ....its just an update file ! Not the whole RUU
http://www.htcruu.com/securekey.php...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe
this is the full RUU

Yes. Previous poster is correct. Download that file.
Do not put it on your sdcard.
Plug your phone into PC
Reboot into hboot by holding power & volume down for about 20seconds.
Press power button to go to fastboot
Open a cmd window and run fastboot oem lock to relock your bootloader
Run your ruu as administrator on your PC by right clicking and pressing open as administrator
Follow the instructions on your PC to flash the ruu

Thanks a lot, but I'm still having trouble :s
I connect my phone to my pc via USB when I am looking at these options on my screen:
- HBOOT
- REBOOT
- REBOOT BOOTLOADER
- POWER DOWN
When I type "fastboot oem lock" in cmd, I get the following response:
" 'fastboot' is not recognized as internal or external command, operable program or batch file ".
And when I run the RUU (as administrator) I get "Error [170]: USB CONNECTION ERROR".

Do you have HTC drivers installed and java SDK platform files ?
Have you ever used fastboot commands ?
Do you have a fastboot folder on the pc with fastboot/adb files in it ? When you connect the phone to the pc and put in bootloader menu you should see something like fastboot USB
Download this
http://db.tt/ldx3qOOU
And put the folder in c:\
So you have
C:\fastboot\ files in the folder
Open a dosprompt in that folder and type
Fastboot devices while the phone is still in bootloader menu If it comes up with your serial its good

I installed Windows to do this (Nothing worked on Mac, and things like this are usually easier on Windows than on Mac), and I forgot to install these things again.
I'll try this in a sec and I'll report here when I'm done.

Hello,
First of all, I'd like to apologize for leaving so suddenly, but I had some other, more important, things on my mind.
Thanks for the link, but when I try to do that (and follow all the instructions I get on the screen), it all goes well, until just after "erasing user data", when I get the error as seen in the attachments.
When I started my phone, I had to fill in the basic questions, but I later found out that all my files were still there, while the apps themselves had been uninstalled...
I figured some general stuff out, and adb and fastboot are now *finally* working as they should.
Regards,
Pim
EDIT: Since I'm not quite sure whether or not the attachments are working, I uploaded them to imgur:
imgur. com/a/yMxph <= just remove the space before the between the "imgur." and "com/a/yMxph"

Well, I've just downloaded the correct RUU, but I'm currently getting error 155: unknown error...
I'm kinda clueless about what to do now...
Regards,
Pim

Download from the 2.17.401 ruu and try again.....otherwise flash back the stock recovery from the main version that you currently have
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securek...Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe
So the stock recovery should be 1.29 based

I used the same RUU I used before, but this time with relocked bootloader (forgot to relock that again), this time it worked!
I'm currently updating to Jelly Bean, and then I'll root it again etc. If I'm right, S-OFF is possible for the One X these days, right?
If so, would anyone know an easy and clear tutorial?

How to get One X back to stock?

So I bought a second hand One X today. It's rooted and on Android Revolution rom.
How do I get the right RUU for my phone and how do install it etc.?
Thanks.

You need to perform a fastboot command
Fastboot getvar version-main
From there we can check for a ruu :thumbup:

Okay and how do I do that?

Oke here we go
Download the android sdk bundle (Google), unpack it and navigate to the platform tools folder ..... open a command window there
Point in the folder, hold shift + right mouse button and select "open command window here"
If you have HTC syncmanager installed ? Uninstall it but leave the drivers on .....
Then you put the phone in the bootloader by holding the power button + volume - button endlessly until you see the bootloader !!!
Then type this in the command window on the pc
Fastboot getvar version-main

It just says waiting for device. I have the correct drivers installed. Don't know what to do :/

Do you have MYHTC in the device manager in windows ?

No. And now I just can't get past fastboot, this thing is driving me nuts

Use CID Getter from the Play Store.

I have the right RUU. I just can't get out of fasboot/bootloader and my battery is lower than 30% so i can't install it.

Can you enter the custom recovery ?

No - However I've got it out of fastboot now. It boots and works etc. but its still on the custom rom.
I have my right RUU - after the phone is charged to 30%, can I just flash the RUU? Not having to re-lock the bootloader? Cos that's how I got here in the first place.

Oke ! To install the ruu you need to
Relock the bootloader
Keep the phone in the bootloader
Execute the ruu from the pc with admin rights

Yes but when I did that last time it got stuck in the bootloader.

Yeah well there is no other way to install a ruu

I did it and the RUU just got stuck on the "checking..." part

How do you know you got the right ruu ? First you state that you dont know how to perform the getvar version command, so you never know the exact right main version. If you take it from the running arhd rom its 3.14.401 or 2.17.401.....the software number from the custom rom has nothing to do with the real main version of the phone. It can be completely different

It's ok. its all sorted now RUU works
Thanks for your help

Good !

You need to flash the boot.img from fastboot. Instructions in the Ace Think Tank thread.

Can I put the file PD98IMG.zip sd card, launch the phone in bootloader and so any single system to load?

I'm not sure what you're asking, but read the Ace Think Tank thread in DHD General forums. It has instructions on how to flash the boot.img when your bootloader is unlocked. The process has nothing to do with PD98IMG files.

I'm guessing that your phone is not in fastboot mode. You need to navigate to fastboot from the hboot menu with the volume buttons, then select it with the power button.
To go back to stock, run a RUU.

You need to install the updated drivers for the phone. find a download for: HTCDriver3.0.0.007
Copy the boot.img from the ROM on the root of your SD card.
then
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I think your missing the drivers thats all.
I'm only telling you things that worked for me. these may not be 100% accurate.
hope it works.

Things that you forgot to mention is BOOT LOADER,is it locked Or unlocked?
it will written above your phone's Hboot -2.00.0027.
If it's unlocked that try locking it back and then run stock RUU the one you were using it in last working stat.
Thanks.

How would i get to know thats its unlocked
Because its not mentioned any where on screen. what I can tell u i its was working every sim card was working on this phone .

Don't get panic!
It's really easy.....as you may check that i am also new to xda infect i registered on December last month,ever since then i get to know things which i didn't know before so don't worry it will take time but you will know step by step.
As you have mention about S-On and some other detail by pressing volume down and power button.,the same way do it.
first phone should be switched off,and press volume down and power button together,once you see white background with several information regarding your phone's current status.
HBOOT
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
and some others but in that screen look for top on the list it should written locked or relocked,if not then you have to lock it back in order to run any stock RUU.
as you said that any sim card works which means that your phone is unlocked to network. but for now if there is no other issue in your phone than you have to relock the bootloader in order to run STOCK RUU.
without locked boot loader you won't be able to install RUU.
If it stats ***Locked*** than just flash any RUU by double clicking on it.,if not than just follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2133336

to check the CIDnum of your phone..your pc must have the latest HTC driver (you can find it here ), and your must already had ADB/ SDK to running android debugging bridge (you can download it minimal ADB from here or download full SDK from here )
after that get your phone to the bootloader n select FASTBOOT then connecting your phone with your pc..then open cmd and change source to your ADB / SDK folder..then typing "fastboot devices" (this is to see connected of your phone to pc)
if success connected..the output will prompt it of your phone serial number..after that you can continue to typing "fastboot getvar all"
then see your CIDnum in the line of output "INFOCID.....XXXX"
hope this help..

yap..just wanna correct misspelled..
because..you already suggest it to OP to relock his phone bootloader..that's mean you already assume that his bootloader is already unlocked just not show in the top of bootloader..
because of that...i just wanna correct that..because what i know until now is.. actually the bootloader of Ace..by default is indeed nothing showing state locked or unlocked on the top of bootloader.. that's why i suggest him to flashing RUU again..no needed to relock bootloader first..
i just wanna correct miss direction to the OP....nothing else..
anyway..i'm really glad and appreciated to see you wanna trying helping all people in this forum..mate

that's CID num is for RUU HTC India 3.13.720.2 , but i can't find it anywhere ...
so i think you must using goldcard to flashing another RUU with version above 3.13.720.2
here some of other RUU with version above than yours..:
RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HKCSL_CHT_3.13.832.4_R_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_234218_signed.exe
or
RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_TWM_TW_3.16.921.2_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_247385_signed.exe
you can make a goldcard with a tool from here..
hope this help..

sorry..forgot..your phone still can't booting normal..
so i suggest you to unlock bootloader via HTCdev unlock first..then installing custom recovery like 4ext or TWRP..then installing custom rom..
after that..if you still wanna back to the stock again...then you can do it with relock bootloader first then continued to process making a gold card..then flashing the RUU that i give it to you above..
just go to https://www.htcdev.com/ ..don't forget to sign up first..then select unlock bootloader..after that..you must download the latest hboot from there..then extracted the rom.zip from exe..copied to your adb/fastboot.exe folder then update your hboot via fastboot.. with command "fastboot oem rebootRUU" then continued "fastboot flash zip rom.zip" wait until finish..if doesn't automatic reboot just type "fastboot reboot bootloader" then cek your hboot that's already change to hboot 2.00.0029..then you can continued to FASTBOOT mode again..then type "fastboot oem get_identifier_token" ..after you get token...then you can continued to process submit token to htcdev unlock for request unlock.bin from htc to unlock your bootloader..
hope this can help..

you don't need HTC sync to do that...just download SDK from here.. and placed in C:\ drive on your pc.
then you continued to step :
1. download your hboot update from here..
2. after you already download your hboot.. running that exe file until next to second step..now you must hold at this point..don't close this..let open
3. open explorer then search the rom.zip file under C:\Users\"your username"\AppData\Local\Temp\ "you will see a lot of folder like this {5917E83E-C23B-491F-9D62-6AB7E6E87DC6} and you must try looking one by one by open it and see there is a file dotnetinstaller.exe inside that folder and had a folder like before too {5917E83E-C23B-491F-9D62-6AB7E6E87DC6}..then open it again that folder..now you can find the rom.zip file in there"
4. copying that rom.zip file to your SDK under platform-tools folder..and turn on your phone again with pressing and hold volume down+power until get inside bootloader then select FASTBOOT mode
5. open cmd change source to your SDK / platform-tools folder then typing "fastboot devices" enter to checking first that your phone is already connected properly
5. typing "fastboot oem rebootRUU" enter
6. "fastboot flash zip rom.zip" enter and wait until finish..
7. now if succes you can continued to the step unlocking your bootloader just following instruction from www.htcdev.com
8. if already success unlock your bootloader..then you can continued installing custom recovery like 4ext recovery (just try searching it on google how to do that)
9. download custom rom..then installing
10. done..enjoy it
all command without quote
hope this can help..

what do you mean stuck..?
did you already see the screen white HTC text with black background after execute command "fastboot oem rebootRUU" ?
just try boot to bootloader again...then select FASTBOOT mode..connect it again with your pc..disable it all antivirus..then try running PD9810000_Ace_Sense30_S_hboot_2.00.0029.exe and following the step until finish..

IF that's step above does'n success too..then you can try it..
rename it the rom.zip file that you are already tried to flashing it from fastboot command previously (rename it to PD98IMG.zip)..then copied the file to the root of your sd card..this mean copied just inside your sd card not inside any folder..just using card reader to copied that file..then put it in back again in your phone..then boot to bootloader again with pressing volume down+power then wait until bootloader check the zip file then ask you to update it..
then confirm it with volume UP..wait until finish and ask you to reboot the phone with pressing power button..
