[Q] confuse of witch is the stock tmous rom + ota update

hello guys i'm trying to go back to stock im on tmobile usa
but the thread if [ROM]Shipped Pyramid ROM
has two version of tmous and i dont know witch one is newest
RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.27.531.2_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_ 10.11.9007.15_M_release_192098_signed
or
RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.29.531.2_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_ 10.11.9007.15_M_release_193714_signed
and do i need to flash the stock radio or it already comes with the rom?
now i see some people are having new update
my friend from tmous is testing a sensation with the update. he said it dont have 2.3.5+
that the update is just to have better battery life and gps lock faster.
ok i know i need to be stock and maybe not rooted to get this update, but im concern of losing my s-off root
and cant root back

1.29 Is the correct Ruu, after flashing, the phone will boot up then check for update. After you install the update you will be on 2.3.4.
You will loose root but keep s-off. Just reroot, it's easy once you have s-off.

The one you should run is the 1.29 and it already comes with the radio included.
You will loose recovery and root but will keep s-off and your phone will be 100% stock and ready to accept whatever updates are available.

thanks guys my concern was i could root the same way i did if i update
one thing guys i download the file and its a exe format!
im on macbook
do i need windows?
or how do i extract the file
ok i download the fille to my pc ran all the instruction on the set up it recognize my phone but the phone didnt reboot or nothing
and it says fail now i try to do it again and this time it wont recognize my phone

after it reads my phone and i click update i get this error[155] unknown error
the rom update utility cannot update your android phone.
please get the correct rom update utility and try again.
i download the RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.29.531.2_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_ 10.11.9007.15_M_release_193714_signed

What are ROM do you have on your phone before running the RUU? Do you have a Nandroid backup from before you flashed something custom? I had a similar error occur when I tried to run the RUU when I was running one of the 1.78 leaks, I had to restore my Nandroid from before I flashed the 1.78 leak and then the RUU worked.

Can i just run the RUU.exe without doing the CID on adb? I just want to confirm because I have read on the other thread that I have to run CID on adb before i run the RUU.exe from my computer in order to revert back to stock tmous rom.

disregard ---------

So which is current 2.3.4 or 2.3.5?

[Q] Flashing Stock RUU

Question if I directly flash ruu_pyramid_le_htc_asia_wwe_1.73.707.4_radio_10.58.9035.00u_10.15.9035.02_2_release_220848_signed.exe from my current ARHD 6.5.5 with 3.24 FIrmware. Is that possible?
Will the RUU revert everything to stock including the HBoot 1.18?
Or I should downgrade my Hboot first before I could?

Nevermind ^^, I already flashed Im back on my Stock ROM. Currently download my OTA. hope everything goes fine.

Do I need to have SS-on to be able to use stock roms?

So I am using a custom rom cygon on my phone and it is very buggy with me. I want to go back to stock version of the HTC sensation stock rom, and then when ICS comes out I am hopping I can just use the official update for it.
So my question is can I:
Flash stock T-mobile rom
Update phone normally after without messing with SS-OFF (unrooting my phone)?

Yes just flash the stock Rom via RUU. You will want to use the RUU_Pyramid_TMOUS_1.50.531.1_Radio_10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01_M_rel" RUU from here. This will have you set to get the official OTA for the TMOUS HTC Sensation 4G when T-Mobile finally pushes it out.
It does not matter about S-off or S-on when it is a Stock ROM.

no
you can flash without s-on, if you unfurtunatly have s-on and wont to use a rom with a kernel mod you can use last version of 4ext toouch with smart-flash.

[Q] S-Off, Rooted Sensation on GB firmware - Looking to go to stock ICS rom

Currently running s-off, rooted, on a GB rom. I'm looking to get as close to stock as I can, I don't mind if the phone stays s-off, I just want the stock ICS firmware and rom.
I should be able to flash the RUU of the ICS OTA and get the complete rom, firmware and everything, right? I know I will lose root, but that doesn't bother me right now.
Can anyone link me to the OTA ICS RUU if that is the route to go?

ARHD is the closest to stock. Try that.

There is a post with ruu for Ics stock rom. Just look for it carefully in the development.

Reverted back to stock through RUU, not asking me to update for ICS?

Back when I was still on stock Android 2.3 I got an OTA update asking me if I wanted to install ICS I ignored it and proceeded to flash 3.33 firmware and install Cyanogen10. Recently, I used the TMOUS 1.27 RUU and went back to stock ROM and whenever I go to the update settings it does not prompt me or can find the ICS update. Is there a way I can get back to a point where the ROM would be able to find/receive official OTAs again?
(I know I can install the official ICS through RUU but I want to get my phone back to a state where it can receive official OTAs again)

TMOUS 1.27 RUU is the latest for the Tmous version iirc
so its obvious that you wont have any more updates
