[Q] Need help with finding the correct stock ROM and getting back to stock

So, my problem is, I currently have ARHD 9.7.2 installed. In bootloader it says I have HBOOT 0.94.0000 and radio version 1.1204.104.14.
I think the correct RUU is this: RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.7_Radio_ 1.1204.104.14_release_259281_signed but I cant find it anywhere (well I found it, but download freezed because of bad mirror site). Can I use another RUU or what should I do? And if someone could post the correct steps for this reverting-to-stock procedure. First relock, then run RUU or what? Couldn't find a proper guide...

If you are sure the RUU that you need is 1.29.401.7, you can find it here at http://htcruu.com/?dir=Endeavor
But I recommend go for the latest version 2.17.401.2 because when you installed 1.29.401.7, the system will prompt you to OTA update to the latest.
So, just relock the bootloader in fastboot mode - fastboot oem lock
then again in fastboot mode, run the RUU

Thanks to both of you :laugh::good: I was a bit worried when relocking the bootloader I got a message from CMD: ... INFOLock successfully... FAILED (status read failed (Too many links)) but the RUU installed fine (fastboot said security warning under the relocked-message). I'm going to RMA my phone because of the backlight flickering and the bottom of the screen is getting loose from the body. One final question, do I now have the phone 100% ready for the RMA (I mean, is the software now fully stock)?

Yep... it is now 100% stock except the relocked status instead of originally locked. So it depends on your luck at HTC centre.
On my past experience with other htc phone, no problem for RMA.

Can you downgrade an update?

I have an s off unlocked phone. Any of you know if its possible to downgrade to an older update? The new us update is affecting my calls and signal so i need to go back.

Just run the old RUU exe and you'll be set.

Depends. If his handset is s-on he can't "just" run the old ruu. With s-on you can't downgrade the bootloader to a lower version.
So it's either doable with s-off or look for the OS via a backup and try to restore that and run it on the new firmware.

They state they have an s-off unlocked phone in their first sentence.

So in the meantime i reflashed twrp and recovery and restored a backup.
But in the conclusion all i want now is to revert to full stock (i have no backup of that). Can i do that with s-off and bootloader re-locked? the reason that i want to do that is to recieve further updates ota. The reason i did all this to my phone was because the 4g was working when it wanted (not only 4g but mobile data in general). Now i'm thinking of reversing to stock, maybe future updates will solve this or to send the phone back for waranty.
So i need to flash stock, can you guide me from this point to achieve that?
My current software is 1.95.401.3, the phone was unlocked but not developer edition.Cid is HTC__34.
Help me what to do next and i will do one by one until i succeed (sry for my bad english)

@pocutzz you need SuperCID. In download mode, connect phone to pc and open a command window on your computer, type out "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" (I advice you copy and paste this but without the quotation marks), and then you will gain SuperCID. With this, you will be able to install any firmware/RUU regardless of CID.
@ OP, if you want to downgrade, since you are S-OFF there is no need to relock bootloader. As long as your have SuperCID you can downgrade to any firmware just like that. Download RUU and run it.

if you RUU you should still be able to receive OTA afterwards but don't count on me for that one as I've never restored back to stock before. You can search for previous HTC 10 RUUs on google, I recommend not going too far back and just going on the update before the 1.95 one (1.90 I think). Not every version has an RUU so if you can't find an RUU you want, try and find an older version.

There is one on the htc website like unlocked/developer edition like 1.91 XXXX , think that will be ok?

It should be fine, yes. Make sure you have SuperCID and remember that you do not have to relock your bootloader when running the RUU as you are already S-OFF

i re-locked before i run sunshine for s-off. i will try to do that in a few minutes

i have done superCID, but before i try to flas the ruu, wanted to ask you, after that what remains? like s-off,root,twrp,custom recovery?
Okey so i did the superCID, in download mode it shows me the 1111111 but on the phone when i run CID Getter still says HTC__034 (that is how it suppose to show?), i copied from here like you said.Downloaded the ruu.exe from htc website,and when it runs it resets my phone to download mode,the bar goes instantly to 100% and the ruu installer says the 155 error,incorect version i think.
What do i do next?
Maybe MID problem?i've read something about it for HTC M8 i have mid 2PS620000. Maybe the ruu.exe on htc website is for US and i need EU?
Later edit: So i put the global variant with .401. in the sd card and it started to flash, i will se what is what...

S-OFF will never be wiped, if you have relocked then it will remain relocked state. Everything else is wiped and restored to stock including recovery, system, data, Internal Storage MIGHT BE WIPED I am not so sure.
if it shows SuperCID in download mode it should be fine. All you needed to do to get it was to execute that command line I posted before.

How to upgrade TW version to Nouget/Android 7?

Hi guys,
I'm here looking for answers. Any ideas how to upgrade HTC 10 (taiwanese version, not locked to any carrier) to Nouget/Android 7? There hasn't been any OTA updates for a long time. I have stock rom (non-root, non unlocked). Is there any official release whatsoever?
I tried following the manual instructions here http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-10/news/
It reboots to download mode, but update software gets error when trying to 'update signature' after a few seconds only. Basically gives me 'ERROR [155]: UNKNOWN ERROR'.
Phone gets stuck with the blue bar fully loaded. Nothing works until I restart the phone using power + volume down for about 20 seconds.
This takes me to 'htc download mode' which tells me that file /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/2PS6IMG.zip File NOT FOUND. i then just hit 'reboot' to reboot to normal OS.
Ideas please?

Hi,
I've the same device as you and I converted it to US unlocked and I'm enjoying Nougat since that. Did you changed CID and MID to USA?
Please follow these three steps and you'll be enjoying Nougat quickly: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70275461&postcount=2

Thanks mate. That seems like a load of trouble, considering I'll have to root, get a license for sunshine, etc. I wanted to stay as legit as possible with this phone. In any case, thanks for the reply. BTW, does Nougat SERIOUSLY improve battery life? What are your observations?
Is there any indication that HTC will or won't support Android 7/Nougat for taiwanese phones? It's pretty hypocritical that they still haven't IMO (may be unrelated, but for me the main reason I bought the HTC 10, while I was in Taiwan, was to support Taiwan).

It's confirmed that Nougat will be available for Asian and European editions of HTC 10 but when is the question. Another reason to change to USA rom are others updates. It's almost sure that Android 7.1 or future releases will be available to USA devices early than the rest of the world.
It's not necessary to root indeed my device is not rooted and the bootloader is an official one.
About the update I can say that battery last a little more (4-5%) but the main difference is the performance of the smartphone. It feels more responsive opening apps and the double tap back button to change between apps is very nice in terms of multitasking. Also night mode is a good enhancement and the ability to reply using notifications too. It feels like a modern OS unlike Marshmallow that for me is old for 2016 devices. Just my opinion.

Thanks mate. Much appreciated. However, you do need to root in order to use sunshine right? So it's a no go for me for now... I've emailed HTC to ask about intentions and dates. Let's hope they reply.

In my case Sunshine applied a temporal root technique that allowed the s-off procedure without rooting my device definitively.
You can download the APK and test it. The app will try to apply a temporal root technique and it'll ask for money only if the program can s-off your device without any type of problems.

Or you can stay in MM but unlock bootloader and install TWRP and then flash Viper10 Nougat rom.. i have the same TW edition as yours and where i am, its difficult to get your hands on Sunshine license..... For me N has been a godsend in terms of battery life...with MM i could max out maybe 3hr of screen on time before the battery went flat....now i am crossing 4+hrs and thats with heavy gaming with games like Gear.Club and MKX

Hi, got my HTC 10 TW version yesterday, setup everything within 6 hours.
It's actually not that hard as you though, getting sunshine licence is faster that I would expected.
If you live in Taiwan now I don't know if the payment method works or not, but you can always consider taobao since they sell sunshine licence as well.
Converting CID MID then you can easily use RUU to make your 10 a US unlocked version with Nougat, I don't really know what's the difference since I'm still using MM for now,(can't live without xposed)
Anyway if you have questions you can PM me for detail.

I forgot to said that the installation of app updates is much quickly than with MM. Nougat is far better than MM in every aspect. I'm glad I transformed this TW device to US edition.

Reply from HTC:
#1
In line with your query with the Nougat update, unfortunately we do not have a time frame when it will be available in Australia. As of now the Nougat update is being rolled out in US and it is being done by batches to prevent network congestion. Rest assured once it becomes available in Australia you will be able to receive it on your HTC 10.
#2
Thank you for your quick response. Unfortunately we do not have any time frame as well for Nougat update that will came from Taiwan. Rest assured once the update was released in Taiwan you will be able to receive it on your device.

Hey Jadraker can you give me step by step of what to do? I bit the bullet, did s-off using sunshine.
I then did the following in download mode:
Code:
htc_fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
htc_fastboot oem writemid 2PS620000
I then tried to install RUU_PERFUME_WL_N70_SENSE80GP_MR_NA_Gen_Unlock_2.28.617.8.exe, but I get same problem as I did before. It fails with same error.
Phone won't boot and get stuck in boot loop - i.e shows white HTC logo, then reboots, and reboots and reboots.... Fortunately, if I hold power, it somehow decides to boot into OS. I can go back into download mode, restore my MID and CID and phone boots like normal (no more bootloop). What am I doing wrong? The '3 steps' appear to be missing additional steps
Code:
1. Get S-Off from sunshine. <-- done
2. Change CID and MID to US unlocked. <-- done
3. Run RUU.exe while still on bootloader mode. <-- fail
edit: I also tried following cid and MID, but RUU still fails
Code:
htc_fastboot oem writecid BS_US001
htc_fastboot oem writemid 2PS65000
edit2: i also tried the firmware "RUU_PERFUME_WL_M60_SENSE80GP_NA_Gen_Unlock_1.80.617.1" on BS_US001 & 2PS65000, but RUU installation still fails :/
edit3: i also tried changing CID to 11111111. RUU installation still fails.

Your trying to flash us unlocked but you have changed cid to european WWE. also when you tryed super cid you still have the wrong mid to flash us unlocked. You need to find WWE ruu which there is one around but its unofficial or change mid to the correct one and flash us unlocked ruu

Hi,
Cid and MID are wrong. Also I used command fastboot not htc_fastboot. CID is BS_US001 and Mid 2PS650000 (with those zeroes) . There's a command you can execute to check if mid and Cid were changed successfully. Then run again RUU in download mode.
Also you're using an old Nougat release. Try this one: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-10/news/
Finally don't use super Cid unless you don't care about ota.

It started out alright. it actually started doing stuff, then BAM! failed again! (same error 155)
but I rebooted and tried again, BAM, it installed just fine. Now it's all good and fully working! thanks for your help :good:

Glad you solved the problem. You do it good as Nougat was delayed for European and Asian variants due to bugs found in Nougat OTA.
At least for me Nougat is working without problems.

Bootloop S-On no USB-Debugging

i got a big problem!
i had root on my M8s and tried to fully unroot.
for that i used the function of the app SuperSU and fully unrooted my phone. perhaps my phone got stuck while booting and im in a bootloop. i can actually go to the fastboot but for using RUU i nead S-OFF which i dont have.. i also dont have USB-Debugging on anymore..
is there any possible way of comming out of an bootloop with s-on and without usb debugging? please help.
thanks!

S-on isn't needed to RUU, unless you mean to flash an "older" version RUU (downgrade from current OS number) or flash an RUU meant for a different CID.
Debugging is also not needed to RUU. Only fastboot is needed, which you said you have access to.

Not sure how much I can help with that. I don't have the M8s (but rather the "standard" M8). So my knowledge of the "s" version is limited. What I posted before is general info, that applies to all M8 versions.
Make sure it's the proper RUU for your version. What is the exact file name or version number RUU? What OS number does it say on the bootloader screen?
Also, bootloader must be relocked, in order to RUU.
Beyond those things, I don't know what can be causing the "large image" error.

How can i get my HTC M8 EUROPE model to completely STOCK

I have a htc M8 UL
Radio_1.29.214500021.12
OP6B10000
S OFF
Unlocked bootloader
Ive tried relocking the bootloader and using htc RUU exe but it didnt work
ive tried the hboot with the ( maybe ) PROPER ruu zip ( 0P6BIMG_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Europe_6.12.401.4_Radio_1.29.214500021.12G_20.72.4196t.01_release_464360_signed.zip)
BUT it said ' error saying device halted due to large image update fail!
press power to reboot.
Do i really need to turn s off and rewrite the cid and mid or there is another way ??
Please help ( my first thread)

The problem is
To get the stock ruu flashed i need to modify the cid and mid
to modify them i need to turn s on to s off
to do that i need sunshine witch it says " there is a problem with your rom"
im stuck i guess

Try this method. I just reverted back to stock tonight and I'm now completing my OTAs. Seems to be working just fine for now. Make sure you follow each and every steps. Make sure you choose the version with good CID and MID.

Based on what you posted, the phone is already s-off.
However, the "large image" error is NOT a result of wrong MID/CID. It means something else is wrong. Are you using the SD card method to flash the RUU, or fastboot? If fastboot, what are the exact commands you are using?
Also, you do not need to change CID/MID if you are running the signed RUU intended for your specific model. There are many "Euro" versions of the M8. And not all of them will work with that particular RUU. In order to verify whether the RUU is correct or not, we need more info. Do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

This method is certainly valid. Although requires more steps than running RUU. If in fact, the OP has the correct RUU for his version.
