You can flash a stock ROM or you could flash an RUU

Hi all,
Need to revert my phone back to stock 2.1, do you just download the stock rom and flash??
What's the difference between then signed and unsigned versions?
I don't have a goldcard, never made one, is that a problem. I am currently running clockwork mod with oxygen. I have not s-off'd the phone.
Any info would be great as I have to return it to three to cancel my contract.
Cheers

Do you know what ROM was originally on the phone? This should be the first thing anyone does before rooting so you can go back if you need to
H3G android 2.1. That's all I know.
Any ideas?

Found an old post I made with some details about the original rom,
Radio 32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09
Hboot 0.83.0001
Rom Stock 2.1 Update 1
I cant find this rom to flash back to stock, can only find the two H3G roms on the sticky.
Anyone got any ideas on this, need some help fast please.
Cheers

did you keep the backup from when you first rooted your phone?
I did, but the sd card failed and I lost everything. Can I flash either of the stock roms or will one of them, or both, kill the phone?
If you are on 3 UK then you could use the newest 3 ROM from shipped-roms.com
Thats it? No need to use a goldcard (the one I dont have) just run the exe and it'll flash the rom, radio and be back to stock again?

Hello,
Last night I spent hours to install LeeDrOiD V3.0.6-R2 GB on a HTC Desire: it went in a bootloop probably because the phone is S-ON and (my mistake) I had no backup. I was too confident having flashed 100 of times my galaxy s and my galaxy tab without any problem. But I'm a beginner on HTC Desire.
So finally it worked and I have now the LeeDroiD GB rom, but I really suffered until 4 am.
But the phone is still S-ON and to prevent similar issues next time I want to have it S-OFF.
Is it true that Alpharev solution doesn't work with GB?
If yes, what should I do?
Thanks for helping me.
Best thing is to go back to stock, root again and then s-off and then flash a GB Sense ROM

Hello Eddy,
What a quick reply! THANKS.
I thought about going back to stock, you convinced me.
Do you think this one could be ok: RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U _4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe
Is there anything I should know before installing it?
no, don't go back to stock. You need a rooted rom, so I recommend using a close-to-stock but rooted Rom. So don't use the ruu (otherwise you need to reroot with unrevoked first, then S-off with alpharev) but flash a stock rooted rom in recovery.
There is a Everything-about-Desire-thread in Development section and you can download the correct rooted rom in there.
Actually any rooted Froyo-Rom without D2SD (!) should work (for example Leedroid 2.x without A2SD did work well for me) but I'd still use a hackfree rom.
Hello people , I need to return to the stock Rom WITHOUT unrooting my HTC One X . I am currently on Leedroid Rom I just need to return to stock. I couldn't find anything on this, all I found was returning Rom to stock and unrooting phone =/. Help would be appreciated

As far as I know in order to reinstall the original stock ruu you will need to relock (unroot) your phone. If you want something near to stock rom then I would suggest the Android Revolution rom.
Android Revolution works even better than stock. You'd try it!
restore the nandroid backup?
Hey guys,
I'm running the GPE ROM on my One M8 (was a stock unlocked model with Sense 6), and I'm wanting to restore the phone completely to the stock HTC Sense ROM, stock recovery etc, yet I can find pretty much NOTHING about restoring the stock ROM to an unlocked handset, hoping someone can help me out with this.
Thanks in advance

Hello everyone.
I am wondering how can I go back to the stock ROM and kernel on my HTC One M8. Right now I am running the LiquidSmooth ROM on Android L, but I would prefer to return to the stock one. My phone is S-ON, unfortunately, and I have the European model. If someone could please help me out, I would really appreciate it. I would like to have the stock ROM on Android L, because I'm used to it.
Thanks!
Restore your nandroid that you should always make of your stock setup before flashing ROMs.
Otherwise, find your stock ROM on the following thread, and restore using the instructions given on the thread:

You can use the guide in my signature. Some parts require S-OFF but most can be done with an S-ON device, so long as it's definitely the EU model
