Can anyone help me return to stock? - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I originally got my M9 from O2, and rooted, flashed a 401.15 custom rom on it.
I need to return to a stock version, I guess it will need to be .401 based as I dont have S-off. Where can I get a stock RUU and will it brick my device?
Can anyone help me?
Cheers

[Q] Wanting to go back to T-Mobile stock rom.

Hi, I have a DHD, unlocked and rooted with AAHK and I want to go back to the T-Mo branded GB rom.
Do I just use an RUU? And if so, can someone link me to the Froyo/GB T-Mobile RUU?
Thanks!
The only TMO-UK RUU I could find is the last in this list.
Hope it helps!

That's brill, thanks! Will I be able to use OTA updates or will I have to S-ON first?

[Q] Return to stock JB with hboot 1.23 when RUU is here?

Hi.
I have a One X that I have rooted and I am testing ICS rom's, but none give me what I want.
I want to try the JB rom's, and my phone support this.
But if I upgrade to hboot 1.23 will I be able to go back to stock JB and lock the bootloader when the JB RUU is released? This for selling the phone with stock software.

You might not be able to flash it directly(version check, im guessing) but you can still flash its contents, and yes you can always RELOCK your bootloader.

Hi.
Not directly? How will this mean in practice? What would I need to do?

Probably have to extract the rom.zip from the ruu, but I cant see why the ruu wouldn't just flash considering the hboot inside the ruu is just gonna be the same as the one you've flashed... But I could be wrong, I never use ruus anyway.

Basically, you have Developer Edition firmware. ARHD is based on Sense firmware. If you want to go to Sense 3.28.401.9, you will have to flash a WWE RUU.

And to do that I will need S-OFF won't I?
Uhh damn it. It's not that I can't afford it it's just I don't have a paypal. My dad has one but pretty sure he won't let me use it.

He will probably let you use it if you pay him up front the $25.

You don't NEED 3.28.401. You just need a 3.x based firmware, and if you are on 3.28.1540, that is fine as well.
In fact, if you are in the US and/or AT&T is your carrier, the 3.28.1540 plays better with the AT&T network.

[Q] S-On How do I return to Stock

Hey guys as the Title says I'm Currently S-On, Rooted and Running ARHD 22.1 on my One M8 Euro/International which is Unlocked Using 3.401.9 firmware.
How do I go about returning everything to Stock as the Guide I have found assumes I have S-off which I dont/cant do due to it saying device incompatible.
Any helps much appreciated
Anyone Able to help as I really don't Fancy having a Bricked Handset
My guide needs S-OFF for some parts but the rest can be followed if you're S-ON. There is an RUU ZIP which might also work for you, so perhaps give that a go...
you'll have to relock the bootloader if you are s-on and then flash an RUU for your phone model to return to stock

You don't need a backup if it's an EU M8 as we have the RUU ZIP - why bother with anything else?

Ok thanks I'll give it ago when I'm home its so I can receive OTA Updates as currently I'm unable to S-Off with Sunshine " Device Incompatible" apparently it will be addressed in V3. But as lollipop is rolling out I might as well go back to stock and update.
Thanks for your Help much appreciated

Is it a case of doing it in this order, Relocked the Bootloader and then Flash the RUU?

Yes.
Note that you need to run the RUU that matches your CID and MID.

You mean the phone gets stuck when trying to OTA?
S-off doesn't affect OTA. But if you have modified ROM (custom ROM, root - even if unrooted, etc.) or custom recovery, that will get the phone stuck while trying to OTA.

This can just happen for no reason. You will see on this forum, there are a number of folks that are fully stock, never modded (never unlocked bootloader, root, etc.) that got stuck trying to OTA to MM.
