M8s CM -> Stock questions. - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I'm proud owner of M8s (Vodafone locked)
I would like to ask how to get back to stock rom from TWRP and CM 12.1.
Can anybody give me any tips about it?
Thanks in advance

@Kerronez,
you need a signed RUU by Vodafone & the Stock recovery for your device.
Have you in the (M8s) General section already looking for it or need you a Step by Step Guide, mate?
Kind regards,

New HTC Desire help needed...

Hi there!
I am all new to the android world and a proud owner of a HTC Desire.
I have a branded (vodafone) version with bootloader 0.93.0001, SLCD and android 2.2 with all Updates installed.
I would like to unbrand, root and install the MIUI Rom on my Desire.
I read through guides and stuff and they unsettled me.
There often are hints which say things like: not with new HTC OTA, bootloader xx, SLCD Screen and so on.
So... above I already stated what I would like to do with my Desire.
First of all is it possible? ^^
Seconded, would someone tell me what guides (and pls in what order!!) I have to follow?
I would be very thankful in advance.
Have a nice christmas everyone.
regards

Before rooting, it's a good idea to save the stock ROM you are running right now, so in case of emergency, you can revert to it and send it to the repair service.
From what you say, I assume you are running 2.33.161.2 Vodafone rom, here is the RUU.exe for that version.
You cannot unbrand your phone, but can get rid of the vodafone adware (debrand) by installing a WWE ROM or a MIUI custom rom, as you said you would like.
To install a custom rom you'll have too use unrevoked in order to get root (SU) and a custom recovery, from the latter you can flash custom ROMs.
The most newbie friendly guide in my view is turkey's one.
You must not forget that we, also wish you a Merry Christmass.
Hi again!
Thanks for that Link, it is really helpful.
I have just one Question left:
Won't I need a goldcard?
Because in this guide there is nothing said about a goldcard, but in other tutorials I read that it is needed it to flash, root etc.
So according to the tut you posted above, I guess I dont need a goldcard, right?
regards
You will need a gold card to flash an official WWE ROM, but you do not need a goldcard to flash the RUU I have linked or the MIUI (because it's a custom, not an official rom by a carrier or htc).
Unrevoked doesn't require a goldcard neither.
Thanks again for your help.
I managed to successfully install the gMIUI ROM I found in this Thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=885844
But now my light sensor doesn't work! As well as torchlight.
How can I fix this?
+ I think that ROM is really unstable it already rebooted itself 2 times?
Sometimes it just reboots when starting an application?
EDIT: this really sucks. is MIUI really that bad?
Is MIUI in general rather unstable? Or did I do simething wrong/is there a more stable version of it?
(BTW: I choose Pays gMIUI because I wanted to have german language)
regards
Haven't tried Pay's MIUI, but the english version is solid.
You can download it from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9932492&postcount=4070
And then download a german language pack from here http://forums.miui-dev.com/showthre...UI-0.12.18-%28N1-Desire%29-Pack-3-verf%FCgbar
Can't tell you info or instructions on that because it's in ... german .

[Q] HTC desire original ROM

Hi.
As a noob that I am, I didn't backup my ROM, and now would like to restore it.
I've tried several, and tired several option but none work.
Can anyone help me restore the original ROM?
Best regards
Ricardo Carvalho
You have to provide some info! Which network, country, SLCD or Amoled?
Download an ruu then run it.
Swyped...
I tried going back to stock RUU (waranty return) and the program would never run till I removed the windows hboot driver.
After that I was back to stock in a matter of minutes.

need htc desire original rom
Hi ALL,
Is any one help me to get original rru for htc desire.....
Try this thread to find your original ROM. You have to give more info, though; there are stock ROMs for all around the world, and you might have a hard time pinpointing your exact RUU.

Help With HTC ONE M8 (UK Vodafone) Reverting Back To Stock From Skydragon

Hi Xda'ers!
I am in need of help with my HTC one M8!(UK Vodafone)
i thought it would be a good idea rooting and installing a custom ROM (skydragon)
i used the "m8 toolkit" to get it up and running
but now i need to revert it back to stock and guess what?!
i didnt back up before i installed the custom rom !
can anyone please help me i was running 6.0 with sense 7 before i messed it up and want it to get all the OTA updates like it did before
please help :crying:
Go to this thread.
Read the instructions in the first post, then flash the stock ROM backup for Vodafone from the second post (or the third post if you are already on Marshmallow, which I think you are not) and stock recovery for Vodafone that is provided in the fourth post.
You are the man ! Worked a treat! Thanks!!
