Rooted desire HD broke - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hi,
I have Desire HD and have rooted it and put custom rom on it. I contacted HTC and they told me i have no warrenty. Is there a possible way to revert the bios and all software back to stock and if yes, how?
Thanks in advance!

Revert back to stock using an RUU found here. Make sure the RUU you download starts with RUU_ACE.

So i download the top one and then? just run the exe?
There is no explaination of how to install the stock rom...

[Q] How do I get a stock ROM?

Hi All,
I'm about to root and flash a new ROM onto my HTC Sensation but before I do so, I want to have a backup of the stock ROM in case I need to take the phone in for a repair.
I'm looking for the Vodafone Australia HTC Sensation stock ROM but can't find it!
Does anyone have one which they could send me a link to?
Or, is there a way which I can make a backup of the stock ROM from my phone?
Thanks!
EDIT: just to clarify, I've tried searching for the RUU but there don't seem to be any for Vodafone AUS. So is there anyway to backup the stock? Thanks! (I'm not exactly a newbie at rooting/flashing, just never had to worry about backing up for warranty purposes before)
i was wondering the same thing! cant find the ruu! hope someone can guide us to restore without a RUU
or some method gets invented

Im bad at posting links. Head over to sensation android development section. Find the roms collection thread and it should have plenty of choices stock and custom.

Not sure if it helps, there are many of RUU in shipped-roms.com, Sensation related ROMs are in http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Pyramid
@tingtan Thanks for the link. I'm not sure which one the Vodafone AUS one is. Is there anyway that you or someone else could match it for me? Here is a screenshot of the software info for my phone. Thanks!

hey did you find a way to do it?
People, before you flash a new rom you need to make a nandroid back up! In case you need to restore your phone for what ever reason.....
This is also done in clockworkmod recovery.....
Hit the backup/restore button and you are good to go.
If you look at the step by step install protocols in the tread of your choosen rom, one of the first steps is DO A NONDROIDBACKUP....
Goodluck!

Thanks for the tip! And I assume that if you need to take the phone back for some reason, just restore, unroot and S-on?

you cant S-on without a RUU though? thats what the guide says?
If you do restore,you are unrooted.... But be careful restoring s-on, its more riskie than requiring s-of! Read the threads regarding this proces and do what it says every step!

You'll need to have stock recovery and bootloader, which a nandroid backup doesn't save. And only an RUU, AFAIK will give you those.

Here is a link to an Australian Vodafone stock RUU, I note yours is a slightly newer version than this RUU, however I would expect this would be fine if you need to go back to stock.
http://www.filefactory.com/file/c13...00U_10.14.9035.01_M_release_220002_signed.exe (thanks to Football)
BTW you either need your stock RUU or you need to have backed up stock recovery and Hboot before rooting (via temp root) because these are overwritten in the revolutionary s-off and custom recovery installation process. A nandroid backup is important but it won't take you back to stock.
For a short time I've got the RUU in my dropbox, it might be a bit quicker and less ads! http://is.gd/Vaq45l

It will work, but it won't be the same as stock e.g. No BeatsAudio or 1.5Ghz clock speed.

Yes, the Sensation is the Sensation 4G and the XE usually takes the same or similar procedure.

Is this the same file RUU____.exe file?
When you say "flash", do you mean to copy the exe file into the root of your sd card and install it via recovery?
I'm on a mac and I have no access to a windows computer right now. Please help.

Unroot HTC One S, just to be sure

Hello,
i have to unroot my girlfriends htc one s, because we need the warrenty of the divice.
at the moment there is the newest trick droid installed.
so how to get back to stock? ive done this on my one x before so i know i have to:
install stock recovery
relock bootloader
run ruu
BUT
i had huge problems finding the right ruu for the stock recovery flashed.
could i flash the stock recovery from PaulOBrien thread and then flash he UK vodafone ruu? or will be some mismatch like on my one x ? i would need the vodafone uk ruu, because it was a vodafone device.
is it a MUST that the recovery version matches thes ruu version? at my one x it kind of happend. is there any chance to see what version the stock recovery of PaulOBrien have?
greetings and thanks alot
Go to super su ..... settings scroll to bottom and click full unroot
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
but this wont give me the stock rom, does it?
or could i run the RUU then?
Phone will still say relocked in bootloader no matter what you do I believe.
T-MobileUS HTC One S
thats ok relocked just mean it was unlocked, but nothing it was ever a custom rom on it
but i got the solution in another forum
just relock bootloader, enable usb debug und go to the ruu
greetings
I think it does go to stock rom

No you can't, To flash OTA you need to be on a device that's never been htcdev unlocked because it deletes some apks out of /preload/app ... or you need to run a RUU and achive full stock and then you can use OTA with stock recovery

You need to be htcdev unlock and root. Once you have that just enter these commands on your pc with your phone connected
Code:
adb remount

adb pull /system
That's it.. development community needs it badly
