Unable to locate 1.29.720.11 (Asia - India) RUU for my HOX

Dear Team,
I just got my hox which was updated to the latest Asia - India 1.29.xxx (forgot the last digits) however i rooted the same using one click rooting method, post which the phone was rebooting everytime i was playing any music file.
So i went to the recovery and tried clearing cache/sdcard/system/etc but that didn't help, then i tried formatting the sdcard/system and post that my phone is stuck on the boot screen.
Now i tried doing everything mentioned on this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1609190&highlight=disaster
However, it seems that only solution for me is to go back to stock, but my problem is the RUU which is not available on the link mentioned in that post...: http://www.filefactory.com/f/7cc7b2fbdd03c031/
So i am kindda stuck here...any help would be highly appreciated!
Thanks a ton in advance...

Anyone??? Plsss....im badly stuck here, pls pls help!!!

The digits of the rom version number that you have forgotten are vital if anyone is to assist you in finding the RUU number.
If you can provide them, I will be able to find it for you (If it exists).

You can find your software version no. by going to bootloader, fastboot mode
And type : fastboot getvar version-main
This is mine as example:
C:\fastboot>fastboot getvar version-main
version-main: 1.29.707.11
finished. total time: 0.007s
And for Asia-India usually is 1.2x.720.xx

Ohh man...it's so difficult to digest!!! Anything else i can do?
Or else if any other indian user can upload their stock rom..will that work?

Yes you can use other indian boot files. Check your pc whether you have yoour nandroid backup , just flash the boot.img file if you have it.
Else ask any other indian who has nadroid backup of 1.29.
I am indian but i have 1.28 base only. you can flash that too. to get it works.

Bro i have a similar problem. I had installed a custom rom and now I am not able to go back to stock because my image version has been updated to 1.29.720.11
Can I get your base waiting for a positive reply.

Hi Guys,
can anyone pls tell me if I can receive official OTA updated on my rooted HTC One X, I have indian version and on 1.29.720.11...
I flashed a custome rom but I restored my stock using nandroid backup which i made earlier, but it is still rooted, I had successfully relocked my bootloader
so can I get OTA normally or am I missing something ?

You'll get the notification. If you want to be able to install it, you'll need stock recovery, too.

I'm not sure. If you go to Settings>About>Software information you can check the software number.
The Dev edition is going to be 1.32.617.6 or 1.32.617.30. If the numbers match, then it would be fine.

Thanks for your help! I'm still on the .6 version, but flashed your recovery. I can not do a OTA update since I modified system files...Now looking for stock ruu or system.img, but have not found one... Do you have any idea which version of RUU should I try? Verison US or ATT?

I'm also looking for a stock recovery for a T-Mobile US M9, but I'm on build number 1.32.531.25. Will I need to flash this specific build number stock recovery when I want to take OTA updates?

Back to recovery with unlocked HTC M9
Did this end up working for you with your unlocked HTC One M9 back to stock recovery?
Also, I am currently running 1.32.617.30, the site you mentioned above only has 1.32.617.6 signed. Since I'm S-On, I'll need to load it with a signed version if memory serves me correctly. Will I cause any headaches by flashing the recovery with the later version than the one I am running?
Thanks for the help!

Guys, sneakyghost's full stock firmware packages contain stock recovery. Just download the full stock file for your device, unzip it and remove the recovery image.

I believe that you need to lock the bootloader first before you accept the update

Edit: those links for getting ur device in stock state not flashing MM firmware but i found it useful to share

The linked instructions are obsolete since the backups they were made for do not exist anymore. The updated instructions and the revised backups can be found in my google sheet (a link is in my signature).
But be informed that there is no official MM update for other versions of the M9 than the developer and the unlocked US version. If you want MM on any of the other models you need either S-OFF, sneakyghosts firmware package and the latest Viper rom or S-OFF and all files found in clsA's instructions for converting your M9 to a developer edition.

the Only way to back is flash RUU.and the cid must same and RUU's version must equal or higher than your M9 have

That's not true. If you follow the instructions in my google sheet then you can use a TWRP backup, too.

The bootloader only gets locked if you relock it with fastboot. (And because many people here seem to be missinformed: There is no need to relock if you want to install OTAs or flash a RUU.zip. The only things that don't work with S-ON and an unlocked bootloader are using a RUU.exe and flashing official firmware packs with fastboot.)

Error 155 is usually a firmware or HTC signigature issue.. just flash the old lp firmware and run the ruu. Gotta downgrade firmware before the ruu will match the signatures.

any guide or reference for that?

Not possible on S-On, only on S-Off
And to OP ... make sure you don't flash a GSM firmware on your Sprint device, it may brick the radio or totally brick it.

I am planning to use this RUU for downgrading to Lollipop:
lollypop:

http://www.droidviews.com/restore-sprint-htc-one-m8-to-stock-rom-with-ruu/

I have flashed this firmware:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952612412
Now trying to flash lollipop, hope it will work!

It worked.. thanks for the help.

Can someone explain step by step of downgrading please.I have Sprin HTC One 8 . I hate marshmallow , my phone battery is drained after couple hours, it's warming up, I lost my contacts, contacts don't want to sync from FB etc. How I can downgrade back to previous software. Thank you.

I want to down grade because the phone is horribly slow since upgrading to 6.

Cool. So what is the question?
There is some info on the thread about how to downgrade. But to be any more specific, you need to give some info about your phone (fastboot getvar all, and post the results - delete your IMEI and serial number before posting).

Frustrating
This is very frustrating, I can not downgrade due to the firmware issue. Where can I get an older firmware for
a developer phone, s-off and bs_us001?
tpteam6, how did you find yours? I search, but found nothing. Some twrp nand backup stuff.
