Known Problems
If you have problems while re-rooting or custom recovery (unrevoke) try to downgrade again with the above procedure.
Make sure you have made a new goldcard.
If you have problems e.g. 140 ERROR please follow these instructions (thx to raz2133)
This will fix your MISC Partition so you can flash back original RUU files.
Happy re-rooting
P.S. i hope you can understand this because english is not my foreign language

Great News!
Im not Root-Bricked ^^ but someone else will be happy with it =)
Edit: Why is 1 Pic from July and one from March!? And different times.

Thank you!!!
Maybe you should add: this wipes your device...

This is great, keep up the good work! =)
Edit: Are we sure those that do not have a carrier locked/branded also needs to create a goldcard?

For everyone how was in bad luck and updated to the original OTA FroYo here is a way how you can revert it.
The User maximini1 has found a thread where they describe how you can downgrade to 0.80 again.
So i try to explain how you have to do it.
Preparation
1. Make a NEW Goldcard (here)
2. Download PB99IMG.zip (here - MIRROR - germany MIRROR2)
3. Rename the downloaded file to "PB99IMG.zip" and copy it onto your SD Card.

5. Wait until all steps are done. DON't POWER OFF YOUR DEVICE!!! - PICTURE 2
6. After flashing press Volume Up to reboot
7. done

Looks like it's possible for those with an unbranded/unlocked phone:

First of all, I have an unbranded simlock-free phone. All I did was
1. download the file to SD card.
2. rename to PB99IMG.zip
3. boot into recovery (turn phone on while holding down volume)
4. just let it load the zip file and press yes when asked to install
Easy as that!

Ok, I never rooted my android before and I have the OTA 2.2 Froyo update on an unbranded Desire. After I complete these steps, what do I need to do to install a custom rom?
Thanks!

Root your phone with unrevoked, using on of these guides for example:
Linux:
http://myhtcdesire.com/modding/how-to-root-your-desire-easily-method-1
Windows:
http://myhtcdesire.com/modding/how-to-root-your-desire-easily-method-2

Ok for the dumb and ignorant among us (a.k.a me) what state does this leave your phone in.
I get I downgrade HBOOT to 0.80 and my phone will be wiped, but what ROM will be on the phone after the downgrade will it still be the OTA rom or will it be another one?
Or do I then need to install a ROM of my choice after the downgrade, sorry if this is a really stupid question, I haven't put any custom ROM on my Desire yet and then I got the OTA update as I was thinking about checking out some custom stuff. Not had the phone long.
Thanks.
{EDIT} someone beat me to it as I was typing this post thanks for the above!

After you've done the steps above you will have the following:
Blank and wiped device
Firmware: 2.1-update1 UNROOTED!
HBOOT: 0.80
Basband(Radio): 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
Kernel: [email protected]#1
Build: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys
With that you can root and flash anything you want

Thanks for the tuto.
Hello sweety 0.80, bye bye dirty 0.92 ^_^
Worked for me.
Btw, didn't need the gc

Well, if this works AdamG doesn't have to find a way to root hboot 0.92.
:/
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Has anyone tried this on a branded, but rooted phone?
I've got an O2 branded desire with hb00t 0.83, I can root with unrevoked, but can't boot into recovery =( Hoping this will fix it.

It's works fine! Why doesn't work the recovery bat. on my PC?

1st way, install WWE Asia RUU 2.13.707.1 directly and use Unrevoked 3.2.1 to get root;
2nd way, flash you rooted ROM;
what's the differences of results of these 2 ways?
Great job ! Was waiting for this ROM. Currently on Nextsense.
Can I just confirm, that this would be the official ROM to flash back if need to bring back to SiS for any warranty claim on the phone ? Its ok to have superuser and busybox despite not rooted ?
I'm using maxis SLCD set.

As this ROM is rooted, I don't think this is the ROM you should flash to return your phone for warranty claim.
What you want is the official RUU that isn't rooted or modified or anything. I don't know if someone already uploaded the official RUU for this version.

myfrankie,

it's official Froyo does not support APP2EXT.
does anyone know if if it is possible run this with an older radio? i seem to be having a lot of problems with random reboots now. this happens before i even install anything and it was working fine before. wondering if going back to my old radio might fix it.

Install latest radio.
search AdamG' radio thread.
lol the latest radio seems to have horrible reviews. battery-eater and slow gps.
was planning on going back to 5.09.00.20 which was working fine for me before. just wanna make sure there are no problems.

Go to market and search for move2sd enabler. This script is more for rooted Stock ROMs. I like CLEAN ! BTW, I have move all my programs to SD Card since installation.
CAUTION !! Do NOT move widgets to SD card.

hi,
How the overall performance and battery usage ?
My suggestion is not to use different radio other than included in RUU's one. The RIL part setting may different. I've not yet study, but you can try it by yourself, normally it won't harm you.

[Q] Want to take Nexus S back to Stock

Hi,
I rooted my phone and installed superuser etc, and the 1st release of ICS on the device which in doing so, unrooted my device.. not to bothered.. now i want to remove super user and im finding it a bit impossible so far.
I originally user super one click but now it just freezes on me, im guessing because of ics?
How do i either remove superuser OR can some one point me in the right direction to flash it back to stock.
Thanks!
Tom
go to nexusshacks.com and you can find a tut on how to root ur device and then revert to stock.
1.Connect your Phone to PC and get into bootloader mode.
2. Download CWM 5.2.0.2 for NexusS from here.
3. Download the stock rom for your device from here
4. Use "fastboot flash recovery <cwm_file_name.img>" to flash the correct version.
5. Reboot into recovery and you will now have the correct CWM.
6. Install the Rom that you downloaded at step 3.
You now have a stock, unrooted Nexus S
Optional:
1. You can download superuser.zip and flash it as step 7. Once you reboot you will have a stock, rooted rom.
Thanks, J

LOL.. Not a problem..
1. Switch off your phone,
2. Remove the battery cover. Remove the battery.
3. There will be a white sticker with IMEI etc. Look closely and you will find an entry MODEL-GTI90XX.. that is your model number
Thanks, J
Yeah, i think its a little too complicated for me tbh, very easy to root, no problem i messed around on my Gtab with loads of customer roms, but to unroot or even get rid of super user, for me its a bit tricky.
I think i will sell the phone to someone who knows what they are doing lol - any takers?
Thanks for all the help though, really appreciate it!

Tom, I guess we could just root your phone in ICS! If you have the proper files downloaded, it would take hardly 10 minutes to get your phone back to stock.
If you can give me the model name, I can point you to the files that you have to download. NO need to put up your phone for sale
PS: When you go to stock, you may need to do a factory reset and thus lose all data.
---------- Post added at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:10 PM ----------
Or, you can set up everything at your end, and I can help you do it via TeamViewer - a desktop sharing utility
teamviewer huh? could we try that? if its no trouble of course
I suppose we could do that...what's your phone's model.. there's isn't much to do via the PC.. only flashing clockworkmod...
For the rest, you would have to press buttons up and down and select options..
btw, you have skype?
yes i do, add me tomster1210
Thanks for this btw
model is GT-I9020
Fixed!! Via skype & teamviewer
1. installed drivers
2. downloaded fastboot.
3. flashed recovery
4. flashed rom & su
5. Bingo!
Couldent of been more helpful! Thanks again!
I was going to ask the same question (how to revert to stock and keep superuser) .... now I dont need to post. Thanks for step by steps jithinsarath.
What do you do for step 6 if you have a D720? And if you backup a stock rom with CWM and then update to ICS w/ custom kernel, can you revert to your stock backup at that point?

D720 huh? AFAIK, I guess the latest that you have is GWK74 - Android 2.3.7. No ICS yet. But there are custom ROM's I believe.
If you have a CWM backup of the stock, you CAN restore it after ICS upgrade. Make sure you do a full wipe.
Thanks, J
I just went through this process and thought this might help:
I have been using NexusBeam and was tired of the random reboot. So I decided to go back to stock on my Nexus S 9020T.
These are the steps I have done:
1. nandroid backup working nexusbeam
2. downloaded stock Android 4.0.3/IML74K/XXKI1 Radio/KL1 Bootloader from here
3. Flashed it in recovery
Now I have kernel
3.0.8-gb55e9ac
android-build @apa28 #1
Build IML74K
and I donot have a recovery (as expected).
4. flashed clockwork recovery 5.0.2.0 using fastboot (tutorial here)
Now I have the recovery I wanted.
5. flashed superuser 3.0.7
and voila !
Sorry to dredge up an old Thread...
I'm looking to put my Nexus S back onto the stock path to get the 4.0.4 update as I thought I was stock but checking what I did I think I actually installed a custom rom so I'm not running a YakJu build?!?
This was the rom:
[Link removed as I'm too new but google ZD3PyN0t.zip and that's it]
I'm happy to follow the instructions above and want to do a full wipe and restore but confused which I have I9020A or I9020T - does it matter if I'm not in the US?
Carrier : 3 UK
Version : 4.0.3
Build: IML74K
Base I9020XXXI1
NOT ROOTED
Any pointers much appreciated!

Firmware version for Moonshine

Hi all, first I want to thank to this community that helped me to solve a lot of problems just reading the posts
I have a little problem, I've an HTC One S (S4), already unlocked and rooted, I would like to install the maximusHD ROM so I'm following the procedure of SuperCID and S-OFF. I tried the standard SuperCID procedure with hex editor but cid didn't change after the procedure so I understood the nand it's locked.
I want to follow the moonshine procedure but now I have android 4.1.2 with TrickDroid 10.3.2 and I don't know if it's possible with this firmware or not or if I need to upgrade to another before..
If someone knows, please let me know, thank you guys!

If your Hboot version is 2.15 / radio is higher than 1.11 , then sadly your phone is write protected and no chance to do the supercid which is necessary for Facepalm s-off. Moonligt method works in just some cid wariants ...

In first, thanks for the quick answer,
in second, yes, my Hboot is 2.15 and my radio is 1.15 and I know that my phone is write protected, but it has also the T-MOB101 CID that is supported (as I can see on moonshine documentation).
Now, on moonshine download folder it's wrote for T-MOB only " ROM Version 3.14.531.11" , what it refers to this number? where can I check it? I read also that's possible some kind of down/upgrade to ROMs supported by moonshine, but, before I move, I really like to know from you if it's possible and what to do.

1, Search for simillar cases than yours in the moonshone's thread.
2, On the phone go to settings,than the last one -software information,there you will find everything about software version,hardware etc.
If you rooted and has a recovery installed , than I suggest you to find a rom which has appropriate bult number and try to moonshine

That ROM is the T-Mobile official release from June. The link you posted to McKinney's ROM is based on the T-Mo release. I used Face Palm when I s-off'ed, but if it were me, I would RUU back to the official release, and then use Moonshine instructions from there.

CID T-MOB101 means that your phone is from TMobile Germany and not Tmobile USA.
So you need from moonshine the file: HTC One S TMO_DE (3.16.111.10).

Yes my phone comes from Germany so it's possible that's TMobile germany, but are you sure of this? Because it's automatic to think that CID T-MOB101 needs the T-MOB version, but if you're sure, I'll trust you
So, now, do I need a ROM version with this new number (3.16.111.10) before moonshining?

The most easy way is to restore a TWRP backup with this ROM.
I have upload here a TWRP backup from my phone. (Boot ans System only - no Data partition)
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B17QCerxI07CQXl4eS12UEFWclk&usp=sharing
You must : - Restore system
- Flash boot.img
- Wipe Data partition
Try it.

You have a custom ROM to your phone.
I uploaded for you a backup of the last OFFICIAL ROM for your phone, to help you make it s-off with moonshine method.
And you ask me if it there is no incompatibility?
I can't help. End of conversation. Sorry

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear, I would to ask you if the backup you uploaded is suitable for my phone because it comes from yours (if I understood) , nothing else the question was only for possible incompatibility because it comes from another phone but if you say no, I trust you .and firstly I and thank you for the backup you provided me.

You need to use the same recovery that the backup was made.
He posted TWRP.

MARSHMALLOW TWRP - HTC E8 (M8sw mec_dugl) - bloatware removed & rooted

This is a TWRP backup for the HTC E8 Dual SIM (M8sw - mec_dugl) which was remodeled to EU version.
You can remodel your Chinese M8sw following this thread [*please see #1]. If you run into problems then check out my post here [*please see #2].
1. Make a TWRP backup of your current system to your SD card. (This sets up the correct file system you need and also a good safety measure)
2. Unpack the TWRP I have provided and copy to your SD card INTO THE RELEVANT FOLDER!! (Next to your previous backup)
* PARANOID MODE *
Perform a factory reset and then reload your previous backup so you can check it's working OK then go to 3.
* LAID-BACK MODE *
3. Do a FULL wipe but do NOT reboot.
4. Reload the TWRP with Marshmallow.
5. Reboot
6. Enjoy
Please make sure you don't factory reset otherwise you'll lose root. That case go to recovery and flash superSU again.
Rom Information :
Android 6.0.1
HTC Sense 7.0

Is this backup works on HTC E8 Dual SIM (M8sw - mec_dugl) without remodel?
i have a Chinese version dual sim, in 5.0.2 and i want to go 6.0.1 with this backup, is it works or not?
thanks
I could not test it as mine was already converted to EU. You could test, but I think you gonna need to change the CID & MID and you need to be S-OFF to be able to do that.
If you feel adventurous you can try but first charge your phone and download this so you can recover if the flash fails. In case you have the triangle with the red exclamation mark then rename the image to 0PAJIMG.zip put it on your SD card's root directory and keep pressing Vol Down. When it reboots it will flash back your original ROM.
Report back please.

That's true. I posted this for two reasons, firstly to save time to go through all the hassle of updating (3 or 4 times depending your ROM) and secondly to get one without the HTC bloatware and rooted out of the box

No, you do not.
Although keep in mind that the update process will start automatically if certain conditions* met and after the update you'll be fully official (kernel/recovery/system). You will lose all personal data on internal drive
* conditions needs to be met
- rebooted to hboot
- image renamed correctly
- image in root directory of SD
- you chose to run the ruu when prompted

I went through the procedure By DutchDanny:

Well new story this morning...i did the remodel of my friends phone...everything ok...on step 5 i flashed the zip as in this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63323416&postcount=27 (L50_SENSE60 ROM).
After that the phone found the update ,downloded but gave me a mesage that it could not be flashed because the system was not "original" or something like this...well the point is that i had no root, original recovery and only unlocked bootloader...in my phone everything was ok and all updates was made with unlocked bootloader...so i relocked the bootloader...but again nothing...the same message with problem of not original system...so i flashed MARSHMALLOW TWRP - HTC E8 (M8sw mec_dugl) - bloatware removed & rooted....
Everything ok...it was late night so i leave it open with wifi on and no google set up etc ,left it to do it today in the morning...when i woke up the phone was dead ( i left it with at least 75% of baterry). i push the power buton ..nothing...i put it to charge..nothing....when i conect it to the power suply not even the power led lights up...the phone is dead...can someone explain what happened or what i can do to restore it??
Its my friends phone and he is going to kill me :crying:

Can`t update software

Hi guys,
Ive got here Android version 8.0.0 and OTA 2.33.401.19 . Try to upload to Android pie but it shows a popup with (there was unexpected error and the file system may be corrupted. Please contact HTC support for further assistance). HTC want me to send my phone and sent me those prices ...had couple of bad experiences previously with their support(HTC M7, U10).
Does anyone have got this problem?
Go to Settings => About => Software Information
and tell us the Software Number.
Install Simple CID Getter from Google Play Store and tell us the CID it shows.
Then we'll find you an appropriate RUU and OTA to update your phone to Android Pie without needing HTC's help at all.
Thanks!
HTC_034 and software number 2.33.401.19
Hi,
I do have exactly the same issue on an untouched U11 single Sim. HTC support is not able to help me.
Current software version is 2.33.161.11 of a German Vodafone Rom with CID VODAP102.
So I am desperately looking for OTA to from 2.33.161.11 to 2.33.161.12 and then to 3.36.161.1 or a RUU for 3.36.161.1.
Any help is more than welcome.
@breno_campolina: have you tried to clear the cache of the those two system apps: update and download manager (Apps -> 3 point menu -> show system apps)? You might also want to try to download the update within the safe mode. I have tried all of this without success.
Cheers

Dual SIM right ? If yes, backup your data to your PC and flash this RUU in order to get a fresh start and from there use the Software Update check in Settings to upgrade to Pie.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939818418
To flash the RUU, the easiest way is to put it in the root folder of a MicroSD card, put it in the u11, power off, boot to Download Mode with Vol Down + Power together and follow the simple instructions on the screen to flash the RUU.

Sure,
Here are the necessary steps.
Firstly, rename the file you downloaded to 2PZCIMG.zip
Reboot to download mode by powering up the phone with the Vol Down + Power button together.
Once it has loaded it will ask you if you want to perform flash RUU, just press the Volume Up button once to do so.
Wait, keep looking at your phone's screen.
It will reboot when finished, be patient while the flash is ongoing, and if it gets stuck on a black screen, DO NOT do anything, it will take some time until it reboots.

Thank you!!!
Really sorry to just drop this here but I can't find what I need...please push me in the right direction. I have HTC U11 Unlocked, S-ON, I was using TWRP and Magisk for the longest time and fine. I'm afraid based on my latest user expriences with my phone I need OTA badly to get up to speed. Obviously I can't take it, the download gets corrupted. I am back to stock recovery but still rooted. Software Number 2.42.617.7, Android version 8.0. I did nothing but unlock and Magisk to this system since I got it in 2017. Please help me acquire the OTA and apply it or get to a state I can take it over the air.
