[Q] Flashing Stock RUU

Hi Everyone,
I have become slightly frustrated as I seem to be unable to flash the stock rom back onto my HTC One X. I have a CID of HTC__001 which seems to be perfect and I am with Orange Uk. I have downloaded the correct RUU for the specific radio I have (2.1204.135.20) and when I run the exe in windows. It starts to work and then says my USB is not connected.
Previously I have been rooted and have flashed the recovery image, which does mean I am connected via use and in fastboot mode. Not sure what is causing this issue. If anyone could provide any assistance that would be fantastic.
Thanks
Andy

Andy,
Ruus need stock recovery. Are you back on stock recovery? Also, phone must be booted up into rom and respond to adb commands such as
Adb devices
This should list your devices serial number as connected. If you see that, then try running the ruu.

1. If you have HTC__001 then download the 2.17.401.2 RUU from here - http://d-h.st/HoB
2. Relock your bootloader!!
3. Boot the phone into fastboot and connect to the PC
4. Run the RUU
That's it, no stock recovery required

Thanks
Thanks for both of your replies. I have since managed to install the sense jelly bean roms from Insert Coin and also Maximum, realised that I did not need to install the RUU, just need to flash the boot.img. All is now great. The RUU that you posted was the one i tried but failed :s Its ok now though as now I am unable to return to ICS roms

How far does the RUU installer get? I had problems on the weekend where it got to the install shield then stopped. This was resolved by turning off norton and running as administrator.

I only get into the black screen with HTC logo:silly: I have Microsoft Security Essentials, already flashed RUU without problems, this was the 1st time. Meanwhile, flashed now with football rom, Revolution without any problems. Just wonder if when OTA will be available, if i can install it

thanks so much guys, this helped me a lot!

Help needed!
Hi guys. I'm very new to this so forgive me if I seem a bit stupid at times. I've been reading a lot and trying to learn things about the phone but I've got myself a bit stuck.
I have a HOX with the following;
*** relocked ***
CID HTC__001
Hboot 1.12.0000
radio-2.1204.135.20
Everything was stock, I unlocked and rooted. All went well, everything worked fine. Didn't install any ROM's. Installed CWM. Then JB was released so I unrooted and relocked and flashed stock recovery.
The phone now has;
Android 4.0.4
HTC Sense 4.1
Software 2.17.401.2
API 4.23
HTC Extension 403_1_GA_20
Everything works. I can boot the phone and everything works as it should. The only issue I can see is that it won't boot into recovery. I get the green arrows, press power and up volume, some errors are reported on the screen - Cannot find /cache/recovery/command and Failed to open loopdevice, no such file or directory. The phone then restarts and boots the OS.
My question is, what should I do next to be able to receive the OTA JB update? I assume I'll need to do some combination of flashing the boot.img and recovery.img but I'm unsure what the process is, or even if my assumptions are correct? Help??
EDIT 1 : I found this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193540
I think it's what I need. I just need to read some more and find out what ROM I need to download. Can anyone advise if this is in fact what I need to do and what ROM I should be looking for?
EDIT 2 : I also found this RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_HTC_Europe_2.17.401.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_274900_signed.exe
Can anyone confirm for me this is the process and the ROM I need to return to stock before I go ahead and run this?
In advance, thank you for any help/advice that's offered.

The RUU should work.
That guide is for a different phone. Check the stickies in the dev section of this forum.

Thanks for the reply BenPope. Yea, I saw the guide was for a different device, but the steps are virtually identical. I went ahead and ran the RUU. Everything flashed OK, no errors, no issues. Re-locked the bootloader. Still can't run recovery tho. Still getting the same errors. As I understand it I won't be able to get OTA updates installed if Recovery isn't working correctly. Have I got this right? Any ideas?

You're saying everything in the wrong order. Please be more clear.
To run the RUU, your hboot needs to be locked. If after the RUU you can't access recovery something went wrong and the RUU failed. What errors are you getting?

Take boot_signed.img and recovery_signed and Rom.zip from the RUU. Boot to fastboot, flash boot_signed.img and recovery.img . Boot to recovery and flash the rom.zip.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Your problem was due to flashing stock recovery AFTER relock.
Try this:
1. Unlock again.
2. Fastboot flash stock recovery.
3. Then, relock.
4. Boot your phone.
Try to update then.

I have a stupid question.
I've flashed my device with the official European JB RUU 3.14.401.27 (if i'm correct).
I've relocked my bootloader etc, and RUU update is done.
But the bootloader said it's **RELOCKED**.
Is there a way to remove that text without SuperCID?
And will it be a problem to send my device back to HTC repair center? (for the G-sensor.. )
Thanks in advance!

It's impossible to change or remove that text .
You will have to pay for repair unless you are extremely lucky.

[Q] Help updating the firmware HTC_621 CID Taiwanese version.

Hey all. This happens to be my first ever post, I however have been using XDA-forums for years now so I am not new.
I currently own an HOX imported from Taiwan im guessing since its HTC_621 CID.
I've been running Insert Coins roms for the last 4 months and am currently stuck on 9.7.0 (last ICS build)
Obviously just downloading the latest 11.5 build from BAADNEWZ (Insert Coin Dev) then flash the boot.img file through fastboot will NOT work.
Im still on old HBOOT- 0.95.0000.
1. How do I succesfully flash the firmware and make it say HBOOT 3.1?
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip doesnt work when im in fastboot mode and even after the fastboot oem rebootRUU. I get the error adopting the signature contained in this image FAILED <remote:99 unknown fail>
Can anyone shed some light on this, I must have missed something somewhere.
Cheers

Check if your cid is compatible (search) and follow guides !
There is enough to find in your case !
Otherwise go back to stock and wait for the official update !

My CID is part of the first wave of updates last week, I know its compatible, my Hboot is refusing to update though. Can someone help me update my firmware? maybe there are a few different firmwares for the CID HTC_621?

Why not wait for the official update. If you brick you're phone while updating there is no way back !
Is ics not good enough anymore ?

The update is for 2.17.709
I'm led to beleive you can flash that RUU to convert from chungwha to unbranded, and then you might get the OTA or at least be able to.m flash it manually.

So you're suggesting I should update via RUU irrelevant of my CID? Where might one find this RUU that is compatible with my version number?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Hmm is that possible ? I thought it was only possible with S-OFF to flash other RUU's with different CID's to go from branded to unbranded phone.
Or am i confused in this matter ?

No, the CIDs are the same, as far as I know.

Signature error 132 when flashing stock RUU

Hi, first of all apologies for posting a thread similar to a few that have already been asked, however I am unable to find an answer and could desperately do with some help here and would be extremely grateful for anyone's time.
I need to go back to stock RUU however keep getting Error 132 - Signature error.
Yes, I have been running the RUU as administrator and keeping the phone in fastboot when running the RUU, and I have been relocking the bootloader first with fastboot oem lock. Details are below and again, thank you for your time. Appreciate it.
HBoot: 1.36
RADIO-5.1204.164D.30
CID: VODAP001
version-main: 3.14.161.27
Attempted RUU: RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed
RUU Error [132]: Signature error.
If there are no reasonable explanations to this the alternative is to flash a rom with the exact properties of the stock RUU's and hope the buyer won't notice! Shouldn't have left this so last minute as things always haven't seemed as simple as they should be with this whole rooting stuff!
Edit: I also have no backups so am unable to use that method as an alternative.

You're flashing the wrong RUU.
Find the RUU for 3.1.4.161.27 and then run it.

Give this a go !
Download this nandroid backup and place it in the right folder on the sdcard
http://bugsylawson.com/index.php/files/file/211-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-vodap001-2171614/
Sdcard\clockworkmod\backup\time and date folder\backup files
Flash the boot.img from that nandroid backup, perform a full wipe in the recovery and restore the nandroid backup. After that you flash back the stock recovery (2.17).

Boot up the phone, check if it all works and go into the software update menu and update to JB again with official OTA.

If your device is locked, then you probably do not have the "unlocked developer edition" the 617 part means it's for the unlocked developer edition. try downloading the ROM for your phone version / carrier.
If you ARE dev edition:
I'm having the same problem. I actually have the unlocked developer edition, I'm S-off and Super Cid.. yet.. 4.23.617.1 RUU throws signature error. Tried from multiple machines, and multiple downloads direct form HTC. I think the current image at HTC is corrupt. This is not the first time this has happened, and I bet they never fix it.
I can flash previous 617 RUUs just fine.

Something fishy going on ! The 415 ruu didn't work i assume. You could try the 2.17.401 ruu !
You tried the 3.14 ruu and that failed because of the low hboot you have now. It can't jump from that low to that high one.

Unfortunately the 2.17.401 ruu did not work as well.
Here is what I'm going to do and would like your guidance..
1- flash firmware package for JB htc__102 from here
2- unlock bootoader from htc dev
3- flash custom recovery
4- flash stock jelly bean rom (odexed) and boot.img provided by mike1986.from here
5- flash stock recovery back again and relock bootloader to be able to receive ota updates
Will this work?

You can try. If the firmware is wrong it won't be flashed anyway. But yeah it is an option to try. But i think it will fail because the 2.17 ruu should have updated the hboot too. A ruu or ota file contains the firmware package that you will try to flash seperatly with command.
Give it a shot. But the info your phone is giving by the cid and main commands are not in line with what they should be !
