Hi,
On temp directory at C drive, to find folder that RUU extracted in it, please search these text : "adb.exe" or "rom.zip"
Temp Directory Is not C:\Temp ! For example It is on "C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\Temp" for WIN7 or VISTA. And for WIN XP It is "C:\Documents and Settings\Your User Name\Local Settings\Temp"
Find It ?
I did find the rom.zip. Does your first version on page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550397 work or is this V2 better?

[Guide] Return stock without latest RUU

Who should read this post?
You have updated your One X to a newer version via OTA, then you want to restore the software/ return stock but the latest RUU is not available. (boot to fastboot mode and type the following command "fastboot getvar version-main", This is the true version of your phone!)
You have some basic skills to flash things using "fastboot"
Those who want to back to stock and wait for the JB OTA.
Those with ICS hboot should works without any problem, someone had test it on JB hboot and works(updated in step 6, 7). but we need more testers.
The concept behind.
1. Fool the RUU to make it believe that it is flashing the latest ROM, but actually, we are flashing an older version.
2. after that, boot up the phone with older version of software, then OTA and update the phone to latest software.
How to do that?
0. backup all your stuff including those in SD, all your stuff in your phone will be lost. Then wipe all data (including SD) using your custom recovery. (important! Otherwise, you may not be able to receive OTA).
1. You have to download a "custom RUU" that can be found here.
http://db.tt/z8ajRTuH
Feel free to give a thanks to billd2439, he provide this working link to download the custom RUU.
Just go to #115 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35139501#post35139501 and give him a thanks
2. Download the ROM file, it should be in zip format. (You can also extract the rom file by running a RUU, just run the RUU, don't click anything and search the computer for "rom.zip") (In my case, I have an older version 1.29.708.15 rom extracted from RUU)
you may want to find RUU here http://www.htcruu.com
3. unzip the customRUU.zip to a folder, e.g. "customRUU"
4. unzip and extract "android-info.txt", "boot_signed.img" and "system.img" to a folder
5. open android-info.txt with "notepad" (notepad++ is highly recommended)
6. type the following command to get the information from your phone.
fastboot getvar all
you should pay attention to the following information
modelid:
cidnum:
mainver:
hbootpreupdate:
7. edit the value of "modelid", "cidnum", "mainver" and "hbootpreupdate" to match the information you get from step 6.
by doing this your will try to fool the RUU to belive that you are going to flash a newer version e.g (I have OTA my phone to 2.17.708.7, but now I want to fool the RUU with this old rom with a version number of 1.29.708.15, so I change the value to 2.17.708.7 )
Thanks ahmedaljaf for telling me to modify hbootpreupdate to makes JB downgrade works
8. save the file.
9. zip "android-info.txt", "boot_signed.img" and "system.img" and rename the zip to "rom.zip". (remember only zip the files, not the whole folder!)
10. place the "rom.zip" you just created to the "customRUU" folder
11. make sure your phone is still "unlock", remember to turn on USB Debugging, unplug the USB cable and reboot your phone, then goto fastboot mode and connect the USB cable.
(important, do the above to avoid error messages in RUU)
12. run the file "ARUWizard.exe" inside the folder "customRUU" (see the Attached Readme_Eng.pdf if the customRUU cannot display in correct language)
You can change the customRUU to English version by just delete or rename the language file "ARUWizard_Eng.lng" (Thanks ahmedaljaf for telling me this :good
13. follow the on screen instruction,
14. your phone should reboot and boot up with and old version of software.
15. restart the phone and go to fastboot mode.
16. extract the "recovery_signed.img" from your old "rom.zip" (not the rom.zip you create! ) and place it to some where.
17. flash the recovery by typing the following command "fastboot flash recovery recover_signed.img"
18. relock the phone
19. boot up the phone and try OTA
18. if the OTA download finish but fail to reboot to recovery update automatically, just manually boot to recovery and the update will be ok.
If you can return stock with this method, please reply and list the version here. And you can give me a "thanks" :good:
I wonder, if you put in the "rom.zip" the "hboot_0.95.0000.img" from an older RUU will you be able to downgrade the 1.28 hboot also?
There's NO way to downgrade hboot unless you have s-off.

They are somebody on chinese forum who use this method claimed he was able to do hboot downgrade through this method, but no one seem suceed so for.
Well, technically this method able to get you spoof ROM version because it check on your PC. While for hboot it validate the signature and version on the phone before upgrading itself. You can see the process if you push the firmware yourself via fastboot.

What if we hex edit the 0.95.0000 before we put it into the rom.zip to make it think that it's a newer version, will that brake the signature?
Sorry but I don't have the guts to try it myself

or you could just cook yourself a flashable zip from the rom.zip. Then fastboot flash rec and boot. Chances are ics wont boot on the newer hboots. Still the ota can be flashed as update.zip maybe.

However, The test is not English, it is funny looking as if the language is corrupt/unrecognised.

It's OK, The RUU may not be able to select the right language to display, but It still works, since the RUU only use adb and fastboot to finish its process, and all these adb and fastboot are run in English...
A brief translation was made for those cannot Open the customRUU in correct language. go to OP for the pdf file

No problem, I have found an English version.
I am finding that I get a Error 170 USB error... I believe this is because I have an unlocked bootloader.
So I re-locked the bootloader... and found myself unable to get past the bootloader.
I managed to run the RUU whilst phone was at the bootloader screen,
Replaced the temp rom.img with the created rom.img in your guide,
But it ended up failing with a Error 132 signature check.
I am not sure how to proceed.

Don't relock at this moment, otherwise, you will not be able to flash the stock recovery. Unlock it first. Make sure USB debugging is on, then REBOOT to fastboot and start the RUU. Or...Try another USB cable, DON'T connect via a USB hub...

help

friends would you help me my htc one m8 it stuck of a htc logo with 4 error signs and wont work .i attached pictures of the error and the bootloader
Was it you trying to update the firmware ? Reinstall firmware.zip again to fix that.
Or .. run the official RUU from here : http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-att/news/
(one thing to note : there is no need to relock bootloader to do anything when your device is S-Off)
how to do that my friend iam a nowbie in these thing also i dont want an at&t thing also for your notice i dont have a recovery in it , its simply empty
You just need to install that AT&T RUU to bring it back to life.
Once it is working normally, you can install other ROM on it.
What you need is a Windows PC with USB 2.0
Latest HTC USB drivers installed on PC. Read this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926362&postcount=4
Download the RUU that I gave link earlier.
Connect to PC
Right click the RUU exe and select run as Administrator and follow the intructions
my friend do you have a youtube link showing how to do all this
No ... no idea as I never rely anything on youtube.
What I gave you, you don't need youtube.
Just download and install those three items.
1. ADB/Fastboot - when you install, it asks to install adb/fastboot, type Y
then it asks to make it system wide - type Y
then it ask to install drivers - type N
2. Install the HTC Sync Manager as it will install the drivers. Once completed, uninstall HTC Sync Manager but leave all other things

Most important your PC must have USB 2.0
i did what you said but then i get this error
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
it says on the bootloader
I was away due to not feeling well (down with high fever .. still recovering ..)
Your problem here is mainly wrong MID... your current MID is 0P6B17000 (which I believe is the GPE MID)
To run the RUU, the MID must change to 0P6B12000
Can you unlock the bootloader again ? If not .. I give to give you other alternative.

Hello,
Please provide your phone's CID & MLDELID. To solve this problem, you need to either restore a stock firmware & stock twrp backup, or flash a stock RUU. Either way, the firmware & software must have matching cid & modelid.
As of right now, the data you posted indicate that your phone has mismatching firmware & software (x.xx.708 and x.xx.709).
Cheers
I'm really sorry i don't know how to get the information so, Could you please tell me how i can provide you phone's CID & MLDELID ? i mean the steps for it !

The firmware you tried to install is not the correct one for your phone. Scroll down to the firmware for your CID: HTC__622 and MID: 0P6B63000 and you should be fine.

You can't just flash any file you please. RUU & firmware you want to flash MUST be specific for your device's region and variant model - in your case, you must flash ASIA-HK-CHT firmware & software. ATT & CINGULAR are US specific, and will not flash on your phone without modifications.
Instead, download the 1.60.x.x from the link provided by @Jerrel7, and the TWRP stock backup from 1.60.708.x provided below:
https://mega.co.nz/#!e8AFCCQZ!2-2Lx1vxkg1xBq_Yhg_Sk9AOzdZsPrX2oOlxy-PLTF0
Flashing the 1.60.x.x firmware and restoring the 1.60.x.x twrp backup will put your device in a stock condition that will allow you to receive official updates from HTC.
Cheers
P.S. let us know if you need help restoring the backup or flashing the firmware.

Hello. I had the same problem. Just solved it yesterday. The whole problem was in my MID. You have to change it for the RUU you want to install.
I was with MID for Singapore and i wanned to install European version. So i can't install the updates. After i changed the MID now i'm able to install every update.
Just follow this thread and you're done. Good luck, mate!

@Mike Smaan problem is a bit different from yours and he has a S-On device.
His problem is his device is running a Taiwan ROM on a Hong Kong variant device.
He needs to run a Hong Kong ROM to solve his problem and the right ROM version (4.18.708.12)
then he can OTA to the latest Marshmallow 6.16.708.1
Should he followed the link provided by @Jerrel7 on post #11, he should be able to fix his problem as simple as ABC.

Very well. Assuming you downloaded the twrp backup and stock firmware from my previous post, proceed as follows:
1. Download HTC Sync from the link below:
http://www.htc.com/uk/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
If you already have HTC Sync installed, then upgrade it to the latest version. Otherwise, install the one from the link provided.
Reboot your PC.
2. Download the FASTBOOT PACKAGE from the link below:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8L4pkbzdlR3eTlJSjdKVEdHX1U/view
Extract the file to "c:\fastboot" folder.
3. Download twrp 2.7.0.2 from:
https://dl.twrp.me/m8/
Extract the file to "c:\fastboot" folder.
4. Put the 1.60.708.x firmware zip you downloaded from my previous post into the "c:\fastboot" folder but don't extract it.
Summary:
You should now have:
A. the latest HTC SYNC installed.
B. A folder called fastboot in the root directory of your C:\ drive.
C. Your fastboot folder has the following files:
I. twrp 2.7.0.2.img
II. The zip file for 1.60.x.x firmware
III. htc _fastboot.exe
Let me know when you're done.

There are 4 easy steps to accomplish the task:
1. Flash twrp custom recovery. 2. Restore the twrp backup. 3. Flash the stock firmware. 4. Profit.
Let's get down to business:
1. Flash twrp custom recovery:
A. Boot your phone into fastboot. You do this by turning your phone off, then hold Vol- and power button. You're presented with a menu, choose fastboot (navigate the menu using vol+ and vol-) and press power to select.
B. connect your phone to your PC. Open a cmd window:
Type:
cd c:\fastboot
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.7.0.2-m8.img
Flashing will take a few seconds, when its done, type:
fastboot erase cache
Now, on your phone, select "hboot", then "recovery", to boot into twrp.
2. Restore the twrp backup:
Unfortunately, twrp doesn't immediately create the directory structure for where you'll put the backup file you downloaded. So, we're going to start by creating a backup of your current ROM:
A. Select Backup button in twrp. Select "external sdcard" from the menu at the top, and proceed to create the backup.
B. On your computer, extract the twrp backup file you downloaded, and copy the extracted directory to your phone's sd card. Put it in:
/sdcard/twrp/backups/"serial number"/
C. On your phone, tap restore, and choose the backup directory you just copied to your sdcard. Proceed to restore.
D. Choose to restart your phone and select Bootloader.
E. Select fastboot.
3. Flash the stock firmware:
A. On your PC's cmd window, type:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
B. WAIT UNTIL your phone displays black screen with HTC in white, then type:
fastboot flash firmware M8_1.60.708.2.zip
C. Once more, type:
fastboot flash firmware M8_1.60.708.2.zip
D. Reboot by Typing:
fastboot reboot
4Profit.

I know that you ignored my previous posts and other people post who tried to help you with proper method .. but I still pity you and I don't want to see you'll end up in a brick or soft brick due to wrong commands/instructions.
You get error when flashing firmware - reasons :
1. That command given to you to flash firmware - fastboot flash firmware M8_1.60.708.2.zip - is wrong.
The right command is fastboot flash zip M8_1.60.708.2.zip
Running a wrong command may brick your device but you are lucky because your device is S-On, so no harm just error.
2. Being a S-On device, you won't be able to install a very low version firmware 1.60.708.2 when your current one is 4.18.708.12
Only S-Off device can do that. To have S-Off you need to spend USD25 for the app .. and are you willing to spend USD25 to S-Off when you can fix your problem with proper method free of charge and needs only 2 main steps : ?
1. Restore 4.18.708.12 TWRP backup
2. Install 4.18.708.12 stock recovery.img
then you can update to the latest - 6.16.708.1
Mike Smaan said:

You can try these B., C., and D.
But, again using a very low version 1.60.708.2 backup on a Lollipop firmware 4.18.708.12, you may have one of these :
1. It will be successful updates but you need to do many OTAs
1.60.708.2 --> 2.11.708.2 --> 3.32.708.4 --> 4.18.708.12 --> 6.16.708.1
If it is successful then it's good but if it is not, you'll get below.
2. You may have a blank screen either between OTA 1.60.708.2 --> 2.11.708.2 or OTA 2.11.708.2 --> 3.32.708.4
3. You may lost your wifi connectivity either between OTA 1.60.708.2 --> 2.11.708.2 or OTA 2.11.708.2 --> 3.32.708.4 but you can proceed further with your mobile data or use a Internet Pass through on your PC
One last note ... never use a 2.7.0.2 TWRP recovery as that is the most buggiest TWRP which will remove your OS version on your bootloader.
Good luck.

[HELP] Can't flash Stock 7.0Nougat via Stock Recovery...

I got a ZF3 Deluxe from Italy, is TIM branded, and stuck on MM 6.0, no updated released for this brand, so a friend of mine told me there is of course android 7 for ZF3Deluxe, so i wanted to manually upgrade system to 7.0 Nougat, i downloaded the Stock ROM from asus (2.15ghz cpu, i've checked of course) but when i try to flash it from the Stock Recovery i get this error (see the attachment) i also attach the software informations, (looking at the error i receive it may see the archive is corrupted, but i've tried to download it from Asus many and many times)
You have a carrier rom on your phone and the international version fails the upgrade check.
If you could get your bootloader unlocked that would be a way around it but you need to upgrade to a certain rom version to do that and the carrier hasn't supplied that rom...
You're essentially screwed until the carrier either releases the bootloader unlockable rom or upgrades the rom to nougat...

You should try to flash stock recovery of WW in fastboot.
And then flash 6.0 WW rom by WW recovery.
Even though ,I didn't sure that if it will work(because I don't have Z016S),but you can try it.

I forgot to say, after this procedure, just flash the stock WW recovery via Fastboot, then download from asus the lastest 7.0 firmware SKU WW, all perfect. tested by me.
Ok I already have system.new.img, I copied it to the root folder of the SD. Device restart in Fastboot mode (power + vol.up key). Exit screen with message Fastboot mode and does nothing.
Install in the computer the pyton 3.6, I suppose that it serves for the process of generating system.new.img.
I do not know how to do the first step "Install: ADB & Minimal Fastboot.".
Thank you and forgive my translator

Try this
or try flash ZenFone 3 Deluxe ZS570KL_WW stock recovery of 4.12.40.1698 and flash UL-Z016-WW-4.12.40.1698-user.zip in recovery (by micro sd or adb sideload)not sure if it work(need verification,I wish you to try first).
Please help me, my model is the Z016S
I can convert UL-Z016-WW-4.12.40.1698-user.zip img and flash with fastboot.
Reboot and it works, but I do not know how to get into recovery.
I have also installed the Z016-WW-4.11.40.1085_recovery.img. The TIM DISAPPEARED
Then I copied the UL-Z016-WW-5.14.44.1898-user.zip into the internal memory and it does not install well.
I have proven the same with UL-Z016-WW-5.14.44.1898-user.zip and it does not work me it stays in a non-comands and will not boot.
greetings and thanks
P.S. At least you do not see the TIM anywhere.

I have done this and it installs,
fastboot flash recovery Z016-WW-4.12.40.1698_recovery.img
reboot, boot system, detect update file is installed, reboot and then gives error (3) unknown.

Tow solution you can try
1.install the rom of 4.12.40.1698 again(some of tile,such as xbl,devcfg,devcfgbak..... may be still TIM versio.install it in recovery may turn it into WW version)
2.If fail, try flash these files in fastboot.(I will upload these files for you to flash,also you can draw by yourself)
Ok already worked, the solution is to unlock as you put in # 11.
Thank you
