U can't just flash a ruu as simple as that.First...boot in bootlader and write everything you see there.

i have the same data like the ones in your signature,
only my actual rom is Virtuos Affinity

you are s on?do you have a custom recovey installed?or an engineering hboot?

sorry if you have a custom recovery installed you can flash a rom.zip extracted from any 2.10.401.x ruu.then you are stock again.if this doesn t work rename the rom.zip to PG88IMG.zip and put it in the root of your sd card:boot into bootloader and wait the bootloader to flash the update.

how can you extract a rom.zip from a ruu?simple.Download the ruu you want (but i suggest you downloading this one RUU_Saga_S_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.8_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_225161_signed).Run the ruu.When the window HTC ANDROID phone rom update utility appears don t click next.Open start>run and type %temp%.A window will pop up.
These are your pc's temporary files.Then search type in the search box rom.zip or sort them by date (the most recent to oldest files) then do a manual search in every folder for an archive named rom.zip.
If you think you are "too lazy" to do this i will upload a rom.zip and will give you the download link.HOPE this helped!

not working

HBOOT-6.98.1002 - does it rings a bell?
read the guides boys
Also the Rom update utility is clearly saying to you that the RUU you are using is not the proper version. Think about that or you will end up with a brick...

hello
sorry, but i don't understand your reply
what's the problem with my hboot?
the ruu i tried to flash was the good one i am sure of this, the only thing that i can think of is that i unlocked my bootloader with htcdev.

So...downloading the zip and flashing thru the bootloader should get me back to a stock tmobile gingerbread rom? thanks for the clarification.

At GROGG88 great idea, with the stupid file sharing situation like it is, it is definitely good to have other places to get files like this. I currently have to go fix my link to the Google Drivers in the HD2 NAND toolkit thread in the HD2 NAND Android forum as I just found out that I get the dreaded FBI Anti-Piracy Warning message when you click on it.

Just boot into Hboot and then run the RUU as administrator. If you want to flash it via recovery you will have to re flash the stock recovery via ADB fastboot commands. Then you can flash it with recovery.
If you would like your apps to auto Install I would suggest downloading the Google Play Store apk and put it on your SD Card and install after you setup your google account before you agree to the teams of Service in the outdated android market
So this will automatically flash the right firmware and everything and not lose S-Off correct?

Keep T-MOB010 cid...
Conflicting reports as to whether or not you can use the OTA with root. If it fails then delete /system/superuser.apk and /system/bin/su
I have not tried running an OTA with root so I cannot say for certain if it will fail.
Either way, you'll need to reinstall a custom recovery and either superuser or supersu after the update.
So exactly how do we do this lol ...Im S-Off with SuperCID and running 3.32 FW and ICS rom I have DL'ed both files and all I want is to be able to OTA when it comes ?

Im flashing the RUU now and seems to be fine now the final step is changing the CID back to TMOB US how do you do that from stock

Can't flash anything, RUU isn't working.

So, I used to be an Android expert and knew what was wrong just by the symptoms of the problem, having had an iPhone for about 4 months has changed all that. I'm still familiar with some of the stuff, fast boot, installing a recovery, mostly basic things, so I come here to the community I uses to help in.
Here's my issue: Viper ROM was installed, and I wanted to try out Rebel ROM. Downloaded it, but wouldn't connect to my computer through the ROM, so I booted to recovery to mount the internal storage.
It wouldn't flash, stating an error, tried CleanROM, same error. Now there's no OS on the phone, so I decided to RUU so I'd have something too work with.
Its on 2.20 so I downloaded that one, and program ran fine till it told me there was an error and so I can't even have a stock ROM.
TL;DR It can boot to recovery, fast boot, but can't flash a ROM or RUU. Any ideas? Thanks guys for your replies.

Flashing boot img through fastboot...
download the file in the link which above which will include adb and fastboot....put that on your computer somewhere you can find it.. now take the boot image out of the Rom zip and place it in that folder... Boot your phone into bootloader scroll down and select fastboot and now open a command prompt with in the fastbootbadb folder on your comp and type to command without the quotes "fastboot flash boot boot.img"...now go wipe in recovery and install the Rom it doesn't matter if you keep the boot img in the Rom zip or not

Yes s off makes things 100 x easier and without s off you can't downgrade hboot through ruu

[Q] Can not access recovery

I have a HTC ONE X LTE - Rogers. I was running hboot 1.11 with Viper Custom ROM. I decided it was time to update my rom but I have not done any flashing in a while. I tried installing the newest Revolution HD ROM without any luck and realized it maybe because my hboot was out of date. So I tried to re-lock my bootloader and flash a newer RUU with JB but I feel like this is where I went wrong. I think I flashed the wrong RUU. I can no longer boot into Recovery. Even if I try flashing for it again I still can not boot into it.
Its status is currently UNLOCKED, hboot is 2.14. I don't want to mess this up, what do I do now?
Version-main 3.17.631.2
When I run fastboot and adb commands, fastboot works but it isn't recognized as a device for adb commands.

Revolution HD isn't for our phone, that's for the Endeavoru (HTC One X), you have the Evita (HTC One XL). You're lucky you didn't brick the phone.
After the RUU does the phone boot up into Android? Have you manually flashed TWRP recovery since you ran the RUU?

Yeah... I realize the differences now. Even posted asking for help on the wrong board till they redirected me to this one. Hmm I was on this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859714
and Im pretty sure I downloaded this file
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...128.32.34a_release_299850qstr7rxdbfuofl6j.zip
and inside that I extracted the firmware.zip and flashed that onto my then RE-locked phone.
Everything was fine except I was following another thread that stated how and I just typed the commands. The guy said after it said "Okay" in the cmd window it was fine but on my phone the progress bar didn't go all the way and was actually stuck on the last bit for a good while so I thought since he said it was "okay" it was done and I restated my phone. Thats when the problems came.
That's a zip file so it's an OTA, not an RUU, an OTA will not work unless you already have the correct system already installed for it to build on. An RUU is an exe file. Go back to androidruu and download an RUU exe file then connect your phone in fastboot mode and run the exe program. Don't extract it, just run the program.

Oh ok, cool. Is there a difference between Evita and EvitaRE? Is it ok if the RUU is a lower number(Im assuming a less up to date) firmware than the one I have right now? Then what should I do after? What Custom rom would you recommend? I was thinking a stable CM rom since I really like the look of AOSP. My only problem was I tried it before and my battery only lasted around 6 hours. With Viper I could get around 7-14 depending on usage.
When I run the RUU (1.0.6.2012) it says From :IMG V 3.17.631.2 To: Image V 1.94.631.3. Is this correct?
Evita and EvitaRE are two completely different phones. Only ever use ROMs/kernels/radios/RUUs that are for Evita specifically. You can't run an older RUU if you're s-on, are you s-on or s-off? Asking for a recommended ROM isn't allowed here, to say one is better infers that the others are inferior in some way. This isn't fair on the devs who spend their spare time bringing us great ROMs free of charge. You need to have a look through the ROMs on offer and find one you think you'll like. Also I asked you before if you've tried flashing TWRP recovery with fastboot? You never answered.

I am S-ON. Sorry about that, didn't realize. Yes I did try flashing TWRP recovery with fastboot but I am not able to acces it and I am not sure if I am flashing it correctly. I just put it into the folder with my fastboot files and cmd fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (I renamed it to recovery.img)
I downloaded RUU 1.0.6.2012 (it was the only exe in the list for my region) and I tried installing it. I get an Error 155:Unknown error. Telling me to get the correct RUU and try again.
Where did you download TWRP? Maybe we should start again to make sure you've got the right version. Download TWRP 2.6 from here. Put the file in your fastboot folder. Connect phone in fastboot mode, open command prompt from within fastboot folder, issue the following commands:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "filename.img"
(the exact filename, minus the talking marks)
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now hopefully you can enter recovery on your phone.

Cool, thanks for all the help! I think Im just going to do a quick install of cleanrom, make sure everything is stable and get S-OFF. After that I'll update my RUU to 3.18 and make a backup from there. Thank you again!
Well no I'm stuck again. I am trying to get S-OFF in order to get a clean RUU install so that the kernel isn't messed up like it is right now. Except The only two methods of getting S-OFF required either SuperCID or adb commands. The only way I can find to get SuperCID is through ADB commands so regardless I need to use adb commands. It isn't so bad except that my phone is not recognized when I try to run adb commands. Ive done everything to reinstalling multiple times yet nothing seems to work.

Ah ok, I thought you were using the latest version of CR which is an Android 4.2.2 ROM. So you've updated both your HTC drivers and adb/fastboot? What version of Windows are you using? Are you using the HTC usb cable that came with the phone? Are you using a front or rear usb port?

Is there anyway I can do a clean wipe or start over from scratch?
An RUU will start you over from scratch, the only problem is that you're s-on so you can run an older RUU and there isn't an RUU that's equal to or greater than your current firmware. Are you able to mount your sd card in TWRP?

[Q] Unable to get in to recovery or install CWM or TWRP

I'm trying to update a phone I haven't used for a while with a newer ROM, but I'm not able to get in to recovery to do it. It's already rooted with an old ViperOne ROM on and I thought it already had CWM on., but Flashify is telling me it has the stock recovery. I've tried installing CWM and TWRP via Flashify and Fastboot and they've completed without any errors, but I'm never able to get in to it and it boots as normal. I can't even get in to the stock recovery that's supposedly there.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
Thanks.
Well try this.
Download Rom Manager
It wil flash the CWM by itself and then reboot into the Recovery. Notice what happens.

If Helped Click Thanks...
I've tried that too, still just reboots as normal.
Then it might be a Dead Recovery. Well which device are you using. And maybe Flashing your Device back to stock which would flash back the stock recovery.
Hope This Works ..!

As first step you should flash the latest JellyBean RUU which will also upgrade your bootloader to 2.15. If your phone is "S-ON" you will have to relock the bootloader before running the RUU. Once done your phone should be fully working again so you can unlock the bootloader again and flash the latest TWRP recovery.
For getting the matching RUU you need to check your CID. Connect your phone in fastboot mode, open commandline and typ:
fastboot getvar all

OK, Bootloader relocked, back to S-On, CID reset to O2___001.
Would you agree that the RUU is the 7th one down in this list?

NO! You were S-OFF? That made life easier. Unbranded EU firmware is fine BUT I suppose you cant flash it now, as you reverted the CID...
I said, IF you're S-ON...
Best way is get S-OFF again via rumrunner.us, change CID to HTC__001 and then flash the RUU you mentioned before

Just seen an O2 UK RUU further down the list so I'll try that.

Ok, give it a try, you should go S-OFF anyway as you need HBOOT 2.15 if you want to use roms newer than ICS.
