[Q] stuck at bootloader

Hi guys
I have problem here
I tried to unroot my phone because i wanted the stock rom again..
But somehow it went wrong and the bootloader is relocked with a security warning under it.
I also have a bootloop, so i don't know what to do right now

I think you relocked it with custom recovery, and maybe also your ROM.and boot.img don't match.
Did you restore a nandroid backup? Flash a boot.img? Or just relock it?
I suggest you run an RUU if you can, to find out which:
fastboot getvar version-main
Or main-version, can't remember.
Get it from htcruu.com, I think. Damn, my memory is shot today.

Well i did something with custom recovery.. but my memory also is **** today haha.
I only tried to unroot my htc by deleting the su file and the other file, which the name i have forgotten..
I was following a guide, but later on i saw it was for stock roms only, and at that time i had a custom rom..
Maybe that's the problem?
Anyways, i haven't got any nandroid backup, just a titanium backup.. but that one is on the phone right?

Grab your version-main and then look for a backup or RUU. There are threads for both, in the dev section, and probably sticky.

well maybe you should find your ruu first?

You can run the RUU ....and correct me if i'm wrong !
Put the phone in bootloader menu with the bootloader LOCKED (what you already have)
plug the phone in the pc (fastboot USB mode)
Run the RUU from pc WITH admin rights !

My phone stays in fastboot-bootloader mode only, RELOCKED-SECURITY WARNING, and have stock recovery installed. version 2.17.720.2
So how do i use the backup ?
And i cant flash CWM or any recovery.

My Bootloader is Unlocked ..Im running ARHD 9.2.7

Hmm i think you are stuck to a custom rom for a while until there is a matching nandroid or ruu available, i don't see them......but you say the phone is bootlooping ?
What has been changed ?
You can get into the bootloader ? If yes , you can flash the boot.img file from the rom again and you can flash the rom itself again .....

Thnx ...I was able to flash the custom rom again...and it booted properly...but still how can i go back to stock?

Well basically you need to find a ruu that matches the main version number, you need one exactly like that one starting with 1.28 or 1.29 or 3.14 then you can return to stock.....
Or you need a nandroid backup matching the cid and main version
I checked htcruu.com but there is no ruu for you, only one with a lower version number (but you can't use that one because downgrading is not possible)
Maybe there is one available on the file factory but i don't have an account there

Well you should have made one right after you installed the custom recovery, what you can do is make a request in the nandroid backup thread by matt95 in the general section and hope for the best

You have to read the instructions how to, i have never done this method so i know as much as you do about it
But yes you have to do some reboot locking and flashing procedures, that's all i know about it
But backup the sdcard before you start doing the updating because locking and Re-unlocking wipes everything !!!

[Q] Help, Need RUU

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

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.

Download the matching nandroid backup and restore it, including flashing the boot.img from the nandroid backup. Then you are back to stock JB .....

awesome that's great thanks alot, im going to give it a try now. little scared to mess it up but here it goes i'll post results.

Make sure you charge the battery before you start and dont forget to do a full wipe in the recovery before you restore the actual nandroid

[Q] Restoring HTC__001 3.20.1 Back to complete stock from ViperX

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?

Cid is not important they are all wwe. After an update its all good again.

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

Sooner or later you will..
That depends on your CID but you will most certainly get it...
Just keep in mind...
No matter what you did...
If you have a stock unmodified rom (root does not count), stock kernel and stock recovery you'll be able to get and install OTAs
