HELP! HTC 10 Three UK (H3G__001) Restore to stock - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I've been handed a HTC 10 locked to the Three network in the UK which has been tampered with and I'm looking to restore the firmware.
I'm not sure what the previous owner has done but the device boot loops when attempting to boot into Android or Recovery with a red warning message quickly appearing.
The device boots into download mode fine, it states it's relocked and S-ON and fastboot seems to function fine but I'm unable to flash anything to the device due to it being locked and S-ON, unable to get into Anroid I cannot enable OEM Unlock to unlock the device again.
I've been hunting the web for HTC 10 H3G__001 RUU but am not able to to find anything anywhere, the unlocked and european versions always fail due to the CID mismatch.
If anyone can provide the RUU for my particular device or point me in the right direction I would be very grateful, HTC support aren't really proving to be any help in providing such.
Just an RUU zip to be placed on the SD so I can restore from the download menu is all I ask.
Thank You!

If you have unlocked via HTCDev the this would have removed your CID in which case yes you should be able to flash the WWE RUU on a branded device.
If you have not unlocked and are still running stock then no it wont work.
Does HTCDev unlock remove CID? Unless it changed to 11111111 you still won't be able to flash an RUU AFAIK

It does indeed. It doesn't change it to 1111111 it completely removes it altogether.
I re locked the bootloader the other day and re-flashed the WWE RUU as im sending it back (screen flickering problem) and it worked with no issues.
Vodafone Australia
I am Vodafone Australia and unlocked my phone via HTCdev. I am also facing the same problem (screen flickering)and need to send it back. I have re-locked it. As you just said "I re locked the bootloader the other day and re-flashed the WWE RUU as im sending it back" can you please explain how did you re-flash the WWE RUU? steps or link?

You need to get the vodafone au ruu. General wwe releases will not work for you. Pretty sure the correct ruu is available in the dev section.
Can't link, posting from phone.

Stock RUU for 1.28 needed
Hi there
I have effectively killed my HTC one - I unlocked via htcdev and upgraded the recovery - fastboot shows the device id when running the command fastboot devices.
However I am now stuck in a boot loop where the phone only boots to hboot (following a failed boot.img flash) I have downgraded back to stock recovery and re locked but cant find the 1.28 RUU to recover the device (and I did try the RUU for 1.26 but it wouldnt install)
Once I updated te recovery i ran the fastboot boot boot.img command
This failed to progress past the 'htc quietly brilliant' flash screen.
I dont have the rom .zip saved on my internal memory on the phone - I was hoping to be able to push it to the /data/ partition however when I try this sdb returns no connected device.
Wonder if anyone can assist in either
a - returning to stock with a RUU for 1.28
or
b - advise how to flash the files I need onto the phone (it seems that the ROM isnt booting so I assume its from the point I install boot.img and beyond I need so help)
Unfortunately I cant get the phone to boot to copy files to the memory so need to work entirely in fastboot and adb (assuming adb wil recognise the handset)
Many thanks
Gurry

But relocking it puts it back so unless you were on HTC__001 you'd be back on the VODAP001 CID

Bricked One X

My brother broke the lcd on his phone so bought a bricked one x and swapped the lcd's so now i have the job or sorting out the bricked one x.
I have the device currently charging using the batch script and its at 3791mV at the minute. Once I boot it into boot loader I cant unlock it with the unlockcode.bin file as it says too many links and the phone reboots as soon as I hit yes to unlock. It currently says locked so I assume that means it hasn't been unlocked before.
I cant get into recovery either it just shows the htc logo along with the red writing at the bottom. So I cant get into recovery, cant unlock and have to charge very slowly using a batch file.
The CID is o2_001
Hboot is 0.94.0000
Radio is 1.1204.103.14
fastboot getvar version-main = !.28.206.9
I downloaded the ruu RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_O2_UK_1.26.206.2 as its the most recent I could find but its too out of date.
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

[Q] How to identify Version Main number of my M8?

Hey all,
I'm from India & i'm totally unaware of how to root or unlock android phones(HTC ONE M8) but recently my collegeue got my phone unlocked and rooted, I did not receive OTA for lollipop till date, I want to relock and unroot my device to get proper OTA updates, please help!
My phone was unlocked using Hasoon's toolkit and tried to unroot my device with the same toolkit but i couldnt find my version main number, i'm strucked since i'm a beginner, kindly help me get back my device back to stock form, by the way how to find whether my device has custom recovery or stock recovery??
Current status when i open bootloader :
*** Software status: modified ***
***Relocked***
M8_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
Please someone help me on this, please adjust that i dont know anything on this.
Thanks in advance
First off, if you don't understand how to root the phone, you shouldn't have a rooted phone. I firmly believe this. Rooting the phone isn't that hard, and if you aren't willing to put in the time and effort to learn about how to root it, its probably dangerous for you to have the phone rooted.
You are unfortunately now in the spot where you will have to learn a lot just to get the phone back to a stock condition.
Do you know what version of the phone you have (carrier or region?)? What hboot number?
If you select recovery in bootloader, and a red triangle (or green circle if an update is loading, but likely red triangle) with exclamation point is shown, that is stock recovery. Anything else is custom recovery.
Hey Thanks for the reply,
I'm from India & i use Indian version of M8.
i couldnt find my version main number :/
My HBOOT is 3.19.0.0000
Radio 1.22.2133114741.29G
OpenDsp
Phone Relocked & S-ON now!
When i clicked recovery on bootloader it showed "Security Warning" so i did not proceeed further.
What to do next, please help

[Q] OTA for HTC ONE M8

Hi,
First a confession, I thought I was pretty technically competent until entering the world of Android.
I have a HTC ONE M8. I rooted my device to get access to lots of new features, now though I desperately want to go back.
I have followed step by step all the advice of the Unlocker guide.
However whenever I attempt OTA it boots into fastboot. It doesn't update.
How can I ensure it doesn't boot into factboot?
Currently my HTC says in the fastboot page:
RELOCKED
Security Warning
M8_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
Any help to get me back on track would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I don't know what the unlocker guide is.
Go to this thread.
READ the instructions. I won't hold your hand through this.
Find the stock nandroid that matches your device, plus the stock recovery. Make sure you have an unmodified system partition. That means no Xposed. If you are using it, uninstall all of the modules, then uninstall Xposed framework as well.
I don't know what carrier you are on/ M8 variant you have. Hook up to ADB/fastboot and issue the command fastboot getvar all and post it here (minus the serial number and IMEI for your own safety). I can probably find an RUU you could flash to go back to stock.

How to unroot, lock bootloader and s-off for warranty return

Hi
I need to send my phone back for a warranty repair but I am confused about the exact steps to take.
My phone is currently S-OFF, rooted, has a TWRP recovery installed and has the latest Vodafone (VODAP001) stock rom installed.
What steps and in what order should I act in order to be left with a phone with a LOCKED boot loader (not RELOCKED/TAMPERED), unrooted and S-ON?
The instructions in a particular online link talk of locking the bootloader and then flashing an RUU but I can't find one for my Vodafone variant. (CID: VODAP001)
I have been going round in circles for the last few hours.
At one point I did lock the bootloader and then did the s-on but ended up in a boot loop to the bootloader - (probably because I forgot to unroot?)! Rescued it using the HTC Bootloader unlock code, reset and then rerunning Sunshine for S-OFF.
I can't seem to work out what to do without an RUU file.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
