How did you revert to stock to use ota? I've been using mikes stock rom on my brothers hox but it always shows no updates. Can you please explain the procedure in detail, what rom were you running before updating and what you did to update?
His cid is VODAP021, phone bought at vodafone but optus sim is inside.

Well you find a RUU for your HTC device and use that. You must have stock recovery.

New all that already but thanks anyway. Thought there was something else. It's kinda difficult to go back to stock since the right ruu for my brothers phone is only hosted on filefactory and requires a premium account. If someone has this ruu: RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_Voda-Hutch_AU_2.17.862.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_275359_signed.exe and could provide a no-premium-account-needed link, that would be most helpful.

I use mike's roms too, I think he blocks the update option so you don't even see it.
1. Download the Nandroid Backup form here. And install it via recover/ touch recovery.
2. Install stock recovery via fastboot, I used the Stock HTC Recovery 1.26-1.29 (wasn't sure which one mine was to start with) get the download also from here.
3. Relock bootloader Via HTC DEV
4. Now you have everything stock, do OTA via the setup/abouts/update menu.
5. Unlock bootloader Via HTC DEV
6. Install Touch Recovery
7. Install mike's roms

You can skip step 3. Bootloader doesn't change so no need to relock and unlock again (saves lots of time).

Thanks for that! I just went about the step cuz I thought you'll require it or else OTA won't work?

Thanks

Nandroid Backup please
Hi mate,
I have an HTC One X from Vodafone too (CID: VODAP021).
Been trying to find the Stock RUU or Nandroid for the past week, but no luck.
I will greatly appreciate if you could share your Stock Nandroid Backup please.

Mate, did you even bother reading this thread? Or this section of forum?
In post #8 there are links you can use, as well as the instructions.

ota updates

i have rooted my HOX and installed CM 10.1 for some times , after that i have came back to the stock recovery which i have taken at the time of root.
now currently i have installed new kernel on the stock htc sense rom.
my question is , can i get official OTA updates given by htc with this current condition or i have to unroot and re-lock bootloader ?

I was told that you can keep root access and you just need stock rom and stock recovery for otas...

relock is not needed

[Q] Help! Desperately in need of a Stock Kernel.

Would anyone be kind enough to link or attach the Stock kernel for Android 4.4.3 [2.22.401.5] 'CID: HTC_001' International. I have searched everywhere, couldn't find one. The only way I can get one is by downloading a huge nandroid backup and search for the boot.img, but this is not an option for me right now.
And, Is it possible to OTA update while Bootloader is unlocked (HTCdev) and S-ON but with everything else is stock?? (Stock 2.22.401.5, Stock Kernel, Stock recovery.)
Thanks and Please help! [If these questions were asked before, please post a link to that thread/post before deleting my post]

Need a rom to fix Soft Brick

Hi All
Ive soft bricked my M8. I have an unlocked bootloader through HTCDev but Im still S-ON, I can boot into Bootloader, HBoot and even flash TWRP or back to stock recovery, but my M8 wont boot past the ONE Logo.
I tried to unroot SuperSU and have corrupted it, so from what Ive read I need to Side-load a rom through TWRP.
Does anyone have the 4.20.206.1 (LP 501 O2-UK) for Red CID: O2_001 that I would use to Sideload it..
Many thanks and any advice would be great

Oh wow, Ive never used a Custom Rom before, but have always wanted to try one, i guess nows my chance eh . Even though its Sim Unlocked, Bootloader Unlocked/.. It is Still S-ON, is this ok?.
maybe a GPE Rom or Windows Phone Rom, with the harmon Kardon audio and I do still like that Camera features.
thanks

SIM unlock doesn't matter. It will survive a custom ROM flash.
Unlocked bootloader is not only okay, its mandatory to flash custom recovery and a custom ROM.
S-on is fine. Any Lollipop ROM will do, since you are already on LP firmware. You only need s-off to flash firmware manually, flash radio, hboot, etc.

I haven't really been following closely. But AFAIK, you can't flash Windows Phone onto our device yet.

Thanks for the tip.. ill stick to LP based roms only. Yeah, shame about Windows Phone. Might give the GPE roms a go .
Any further tips would be appreciated

Thank you. Yesterday, I flashed the stock recovery and relocked the Desire 816. Now, on Bootloeader, it shows Relocked - Tampered - S-On
The ota installation doesn't work. Do you know, how to remove tampered ? Will this RUU work?
