ROM.zip is same as RUU zip. You need firmware.zip from inside ROM.zip. This is just a small zip that contains hboot, radio, recovery, kernel, and several other partitions, but does not contain the ROM/OS.
You can also get the firmware and RUU zips from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
If its the Sprint H/K version you have, the firmware number should be 6.20.654.3
Directions on flashing the firmware are on the linked thread.

[Q] Can't flash the device to stock rom using RUU

Hi,
I'm trying to restore from custom rom to stock rom.
My phone is CID ORANG216 and I'm using xx.xx.65.xx RUU releases.
I have 2 relevant files:
The RUU exe - RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_Orange_CH-Generic_2.17.65.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_275590_signed.exe
OTA UPDATE for the device - OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_Orange_CH-Generic_3.16.65.2-2.17.65.2_release_296426gf2xgpisn8xs0fti
After flashing the stock recovery, boot_signed.img, rebootRUU, the RUU update fails because of version failure, I suspect that the HBOOT version is the trouble maker.
My phone is unlocked with S-ON with HBOOT 1.36 and the HBOOT in the RUU is 1.12 .
Due to S-ON I cant change the hboot.
I can't seem to find a workaround for it and install the RUU.
Any ideas??
I even thought about compiling the latest JB release from htcdev development center and flash it...

You need to relock the bootloader to use install RUU . It has nothing to do with hboot . Just take note that you have to use the RUU that is on the same build or higher .

doesn't work... I'm getting "Error [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR"
The only RUU exe available is the one i mentioned and its old
I don't know how to use the OTA file without the original stock rom already installed...
if it helps anything the command "fastboot getvar version-main" on my device gives:
version-main: 3.16.65.2

Like I mentioned . You have to look for the version that's the same with yours or higher to use the RUU . I guess you can't go back to stock until you find the RUU of your version or higher . Maybe you could try a stock ROM nand backup ?
Here are stock backups

Just lock your bootloader using fastboot oem lock and run this RUU with admin privileges..

I don't think your questions relate to the subject here.
Anyway, custom roms are based on the stock rom and most of the times include a file called firmware.zip, look it up in the costum_rom.zip file.
hboot updates are tricky on this device and for upgrading it (from ICS to JB supported hboot) you need a special firmware built for your specific htc one x model (look at the manuals for more instructions).
For the battery saving, I think it depends on the rom you install and not the kernel (or maybe both because they come together?), check out for old posts about that issue, I'm sure its not the first time someone asks about it.
hope it helps

First, you can't use 4.16.401.10 when your device is S-On.
Second, you need the stock recovery installed then only OTA can proceed.
What's your software version no. now ? Is it 3.28.709.6 ? Are you doing lollipop OTA ?
All the files needed are here if the above version no. is correct.

Just to share some usefull information :
As been explained he can't use that firmware on a s-on device.
A firmware comes with different software numbers which are linked to different cids. If his cid is not supported by the firmware he simply can't flash it. Unless he gets s-off and change the cid. Therefore he needs the matching firmware, he could flash that firmware 10 times and it would still fail.

HTC 10 Back to Stock

Dears,
I am currently using Viper Rom 3.5 the lastest version but suffering from bad battery life,
I want to return to Stock my CID is HTC__J15
my current base version is 1.95.401.4
any help.
thanks
Easiest way is to ruu
I also returned to stock from Viper, not because of battery issue, but felt tired on cat-and-mouse game for hiding modified bootloader and root when using Android Pay...
You need to do is to search Internet and find the exact OS version RUU (1.95.401.4). If only have earlier version (e.g. 1.50.401.4) then you need to S-Off first, then you can flash earlier version for your variant. (I also purchased Sunshine to s-off before flashing earlier version of RUU).
my CID is HTC__J15 ,
1.95.401.4
i tried the ruu zip but show me an error message (didnt even flash )
any idea. thanks guys
How are you flashing it? SD card in download mode? Or using ruu.exe? If from SD card did you make sure to rename the package to 2ps6img.zip?

Let check carefully what version of your ruu is? From Internet I can only find this one (1.21.401.4):
2PS6IMG_PERFUME_UHL_M60_SENSE80GP_HTC_Europe_1.21.401.4_R_Radio_1.0.U01001360331.4_41.13_F_release_477256_signed_2_4.zip
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591023225177702
If you are still S-ON, you can't flash earlier version of RUU, the only way is to either find the exact version of RUU (1.95.401.4) or S-OFF first. You can purchase Sunshine to S-OFF, then are able to flash back to stock ROM with version 1.21.401.4. Once back, you can through OTA to update to latest 1.95.401.4.

How to upgrade to Oreo?

My bootloader is unlocked through HTCDev website, and I'm running Viper10 since over a year (build number 2.41.401.41).
I'm not sure how to upgrade to stock Oreo. Do I have to S-off the phone using sunshine?
Or is there another method to flash the stock Oreo on my WWE phone?
I tried to look around but couldn't find a step by step info on this matter, and I haven't been following up xda lately, so I kind of forgot how things work in the ROM flashing world of HTC.

Rename the file to 2PS6IMG.zip, put it in the root of your sd card and run from download mode.
Also make sure that your sd card is not formatted as an internal card. It should be formatted as a portable card, so that you can see the phone storage divided into internal & sd card.

You never get tired answering questions and helping people here mate. Hats off to you! Though I'm still in Nougat because I've been seeing quite a lot of complaints about the Oreo on HTC 10. At least I know now what to do if I want to upgrade my device.

If i am correct you need to put the phone in RUU mode. Check it out, if you search for

It will come up with the correct info. I can't recall it 100%

How to update firmware with S-ON

I would like to update my HTC10 to Oreo.
Currently I am running Nougat, firmware 2.41 and S-ON.
Can some help me how I can got back to stock using HTC RUU or Stock Backup and OTA method?
I've searched but I can't find any good tutorial here on XDA.
Thanks in advance!

The ruu method is extensively covered in all sections, the Q&A subforum (where this thread belongs too) are filled with the same question and covered.
Get the oreo ruu zip for your region, rename it and copy it to the SD card, boot into download mode and follow the on screen instructions to flash it.

That's correct, but you must rename the file to

Otherwise download mode will not recognize the ruu.

That RUU won't work with Nougat firmware. For some reason Oreo RUU needs Oreo firmware for it to work. Instead Flash 2.41.401.41 RUU then boot the phone and take OTA to Oreo.
