Hello Guys,
I am currently on Shpongle and want to move back to stock. Reason being frequent hanging and sluggishness. I have installed the swap performance updates and greenify, but still at times, the phone gets the better of my patience.
MY Questions:
1. How do I go back to stock? I dont think I have the stock nandroid backup. I have the Unlock_code.bin that was sent by HTC.
2. Is there a lightweight Sense ROM? I like the camera, and looks, but I dont like the friendfeed and stuff.
Thanks.

You can use myONEv RC9.5FX+ or Ignorance X for a lighter Sense ROM. You can remove the bloatware with titanium backup as well.

Ignorance X does seem nice. Can I use the stock skin with it?

yes it won't look as nice though, since it has internal theming for Ignorance X skin.

Thank you. Its about to complete downloading. I will install it soon. Will use Titanium Kernel.

A few questions about it
Sorry for my mistake, please remove it
Hi people.
My device is curretly like this:
N9005
Knox 0x1
TWRP recovery
Stock Kernel
Stock ROM 4.4.2
I would like to return completly to stock. I know I won't be able to be Knox 0x0 again but I want the stock recovery, kernel and ROM.
My question is: can I simply restore the firmware in Kies to get back to stock (including the recovery)?
Stock Rom: http://www.idroidspace.com/primou-original-stock-rom-for-htc-one-v-android-4-0-3-ics/
Stock Kernel and Recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1221449&d=1343236979
I can't tell you if this stock rom is the original one by htc or with some modifications, I only found it and there are much more ruu uploads out there.

Thanks for the links. I have a problem. I decided I want to go back to comfortable stock ROM. I used a custom ROM, on a rooted HTC One V (GSM - Primo U). I followed the intructions: First I installed stock kernel and stock recovery. After I relocked the bootloader. I downloaded the RUU file according to my region (there are 4 european RUU version???). I connected my phone to computer and run the downloaded setup and followed the steps. Only after I started the update process, the progress bar stopped moving (before entering bootloader - the HTC One V didn't reboot into bootloader) and I got an error (155) message. What may be the problem? I have tried the all RUU files according to my region.
Thanks in advance,

First, install a custom recovery again. Then do a full wipe and install the rom you downloaded (PrimoU_Europe_2.22.401.1_Stock_Rooted_ODEX_FULL.zip or PrimoU_Europe_2.22.401.1_Stock_Rooted_ODEX_LITE.zip) with the custom recovery like you would install a custom rom. Then reboot to fastboot and flash boot.img (not boot-signed.img because this didn't work for me). Try to reboot and if everything works you may install recovery_signed.img, but this is only useful for ota updates, which obviously the hov doesn't get anymore.

Thanks. Yesterday I've installed the PrimoU_Europe_2.22.401.1_Stock_Rooted_ODEX_FULL.zip ROM, everything O.K., but there is no WIFI on my phone. So I decided to use the RUU. So I don't use boot_signed.img. Which boot.img can I use. Do you send me one?

So if i use the boot.img file inside the primou_europe_2.22.401.1_stock_rooted_odex_full.zip file, the RUU can reboot the ONE V into bootloader?

I don't really understand your problem. If you want to reboot into bootloader just use adb reboot bootloader.
Got the update at 2am, posting it so maybe custom roms can get WiFi calling, feel free to mirror just asking you keep them in the thread.

Twrp won't have the decryption keys or some of the HTC specific functions required to apply the OTA. You'll need a stock /system and a stock recovery.

T-Mobile US 4.20.531.4 firmware
Here is the new T-Mobile US firmware from today with the recovery and boot.img removed, just need someone to do their magic and remove red text.

Would this explain the error that I'm getting?
Package expects build fingerprint of htc/tmous/htc_m8:4.4.4/KTU84P/396641.2:user/release-keys or htc/tmous/htc_m8:5.0.1/htc_m8: 5.0.1/LRX22C/464190.4:user/release-keys.; this device has htc/tmous/htc_m8:4.4.3/KTU84L/365360.5/user/release-keys.
I flashed stock recovery, but my phone is still root. Did a full wipe/restore, still getting same thing. The error looks like it's not happy about a missing update perhaps, if I'm reading that correctly. Best I know, I have the latest kitkat version. But, I've had twrp for awhile so maybe I missed an OTA update along the way.

If you're SOFF and supercid just flash the lollipop ruu T-Mobile just release. It doesn't matter what previous rom you're on. Then reflash custom recovery and rooted. I've done this alot of time already.

So the steps would be:
- Flash stock recovery via fastboot
- Flash firmware via fastboot
- Flash twrp via fastboot
- Flash Lollipop via twpr
Is this correct?

For me (I am s-on) I did it in this order:
- flashed twrp stock rom
- rebooted and made sure the rom worked
- flashed stock recovery via fastboot
- rebooted and downloaded and installed OTA.
If you are s-off I believe (someone correct me if I am wrong) you can use the RUU instead.
I did have a wifi issue which was solved by a factory wipe ( yes I had to re-install and setup the phone again).

Do you mean you have an unlocked boatloader and you want to relock it? You need to use ADB/fastboot on a P.C. with your phone in hboot/fastboot mode and enter"fastboot oem lock" into your command prompt window in the ADB folder then your boatloader will relock. You would also need to be on your stock recovery as well with your system unrooted and stock with no alterations to your system files to then do stock updates. Hope this helps.

If it's your boatloader you are referring to "locking" and you originally "unlocked" it you just need to use ADB/fastboot and the command prompt I gave you with your phone in hboot/fastboot mode and USB debugging enabled in your developer settings on your phone to "relock" your boatloader. As long as you're on stock recovery and haven't modified any system files you will be able to do stock updates after that. Hopefully that's what your wanting to do and I'm not just misunderstanding what your wanting and if I am I apologize.

Yes I believe those 2 mods change your system files to allow their codecs to work so they are modifications. Root, Xposed frameworks,WP.mod_ko to enable system write permissions etc... all can be modifications that need to be "undone" before updating a signed stock OTA or signed RUU( Rom update utility). Unsigned stock firmware in the form of compiled zips or TRWP/CWM nandroid backups supposedly need less to be stock but I have never restored from anything but "signed" stock RUU's so YMMV. I personally don't want to flash someone's personal nandroid backup to my phone because I don't know what if anything isn't "stock" on it.
That's a personal philosophy and I know they upload them for a reason to help those who can't find a signed update or use one but as long as I can I will because when you flash someone else's personal backup you flash the good and the bad, if any. Hopefully you backed up your stock rom before flashing Cyanogen mod , as I have it in my phone as well, and then you can just restore it when you want, reflash your stock recovery, lock your boatloader, unroot and then do any stock OTA's. I also believe you can flash your stock recovery , unroot in Cyanogen mod, remove mods and flash a stock RUU over your current ROM but I've also never personally done that . I just restore my stock backup , reflash my stock recovery, unroot, lock my boatloader and do stock update that way.
Best advice I ever got here was to backup and keep my stock ROM in a nandroid backup to micro SD card before any flashing of new custom roms, find your stock zip or RUU exe and save it to your computer just in case and the same for your stock recovery because you never know when you might need it and I have. Multiple times and it's all in a folder on my computer. If it's a U.S. variant the RUU's are on HTC's website. If not most are found online. Just don't flash the wrong firmware or it could brick your device.

Yes , as long as you don't "dirty flash" over Cyanogen mod with your stock backup. Always do a factory reset before flashing between different roms then wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery before reboot into system. You also need your stock recovery flashed back as well before locking your boatloader. Otherwise I use TWRP.

Hi guys i have a rooted himaulatt m9 with twrp on 6.0 stock rom with elementalX kernel and now it is asking for a system update should i download and install it or not i have made a nandroid backup before rooting my phone btw, what should i do? Thanks
Even if you download the update, it will fail to install because you are not fully stock. You need to flash the stock boot image, the stock recovery, and an untouched system_image, all three corresponding to the firmware currently on your device. Then the update will install. If you don't have those files, then you need to find an RUU for your device.

By "stock recovery" I mean the recovery that came with the version of Android you have on your device (before you replaced it with TWRP) so, yes, you need to replace TWRP with the stock recovery.

You need to get a hold of a stock recovery backup corresponding to the Android version you are trying to restore. Otherwise, you'll need to find an RUU.
I've installed the deodexed Dev Rom 2.51.617.32 and I have received the OTA to Oreo, or how can I install Oreo in a developer.
Also I can't run the RUU or I'm making a mistake.

It won't install with TWRP.
You'll also need an untouched fully stock /system partition. Before rooting, and as soon as you install TWRP, you should make a backup of /system if you plan on updating through OTA
Here is the stock recovery for 2.51.617.32
It won't help if you don't have a stock system backup though (that you'll need to restore with TWRP before flashing the stock recovery), but you might be able to find one with a search.
If you are trying to run the Oreo RUU, you'll need to flash the firmware for it first. It's a known issue. The easiest way would probably be to run the 2.51.617.32 RUU, then you should be able to update from there via OTA
I am also on the deodexed Dev Rom 2.51.617.32. I want to go to LeeDroid, but I am not sure how. It looks like I need to be on Oreo. Is there a way to install Oreo manually, while keeping TWRP? Can I just flash the Oreo firmware through fastboot? I'm s-off and unlocked

No tutorial needed. You just need the stock boot.img. Put it into your adb/fastboot folder, then: fastboot flash boot boot.img
Do you need the stock boot.img? If so, tell me here what it says next to "OS" in download mode, and I'll hook you up with it.
