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?
Ok so I have been searching for a few days this entire forum and I dont think I have found a newbie friendly answer so posting.
I have a Tmobile Sensation 4G that I s-off'd, clockwork recovery, rooted, Super CID following the guides successfully. Then I flashed the Android Revolution HD rom on to it and played with it for a few days. Now I need to sell my sensation and the buyer is asking for it to be in factory stock state.
I have found many posts guiding me to download and flash the RUU but when I try to do that it tells me that update is not possible because apparantly I am trying to downgrade from 1.45.401 to 1.29.xX
I have also flashed the clockwork recovery again as most guides assume or require that recovery to be present and have done a nandroid backup. How do I flash the stock Tmobile ROM ? The only RUU I have found is the 1.29 version. I will also later on do the S-ON (or should I be doing it before?) and removing the Super CID
Any ideas ?
boot your phone in bootloader and then fastboot, connect it to usb port and launch the RUU
In addition, once the RUU has flashed, reset CID to stock TMOUS and then S-ON
I'm trying to get back to stock hboot on my sensation so I can send it in for warranty. I tried running the stock 1.45 ruu and it didn't change. I tried running the 1.29 ruu and then running the OTA update and that didn't work either. Can someone just provide the stock hboot so I can flash that please?
-The method I used to unlock was unlocking through htc and then rooting through revolutionary.io
Hey,
[i'm new here, but i couldn't find a post with this exact problem]
I've been using my HTC Sensation rooted for about 8 months now on 2.3.4/5, and with ICS officially being released i want to update to ICS.
I do have my phone rooted but i do not have any custom roms installed.
In theory it should just update OTA to ICS but when i try to update it my phone reboots and then it gives me this image of an android mascot besides a warning mark (the image didn't work.). Is this superuser blocking the update?
Now i'm wondering what is the best way to get ICS update to work.
At this moment i don't care if i lose the root on my device.
I've been thinking about flashing it so that it would remove the root, make it S-on and remove superuser. (basically make it like it was when i bought it.) and then updating it to ICS.
Any help with my problem or on how to handle the flashing will be appreciated.
If you're rooted, download 4EXT updater, flash 4EXT recovery, flash the 3.32 firmware, then flash an ICS rom.
If i'm correct that will give me a custom rom.
And at the moment i would like to keep the rom stock because i would like all the options to work.
If i'm wrong and it will update to stock rom, then i'll give it a go.
Otherwise is there a way to update to stock rom?
You can't be rooted to flash the OTA, and you HAVE to have the stock recovery too
alright so i need to unroot the phone and somehow manage to uninstall superuser (if it doesn't uninstall with the unrooting).
So my question then is,
Is this possible to unroot the device?
Maybe someone can link me to a good tutorial ?
You need to restore stock recovery and your oringinal Rom intact ( not delete apps in the stock rom). Stock recovery can be obtained from RUU.
Or just flash New firmware and custom Rom if your phone is s-off.

Guide for debranding or going back to stock.
Basically you need to download your stock RUU and go back to your original CID (if you supercided).
The guide basically covers almost all your concern in returning to stock rom and recovery.

i'll give that a go tomorrow and let you guys know what happend.
[dumb noob question!! this should make my phone look like it was when it came out of the box right?]
If i'm correct i need a RUU.
Is it possible to do this tutorial using the OTA update file i got for the ICS update?
Update
So,,
After 2 days of trying to download a good RUU file.
I still don't have it, filefactory always says that the free download slots are all taken.
So i would love if someone could tell me if it is possible to just flash the update file called:
OTA_PYRAMID_ICS_HTC_Europe_3.32.401.5_R-1.50.401_release_252072fll6erqo75dsziua.zip
I would appreciate a reply telling me if this is possible or why it is not possible.
As said, you need to be on a stock unrooted rom and stock recovery.
Is your phone branded or unbranded. What RUU were you trying to download? 1.50.401.1 or else?
Also, did you supercid or not? if yes, you need to go back to original CID to get OTA.
Do not attempt do flash the OTA.zip from a custom recovery because it will fail.
I have RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.50.401.1_R_Radio_10.58.9035.00U_10.15.9035.02_2_release_228602_signed wich is the latest GB for european unbranded devices. If this is what you are looking for, I could upload it for you. Let me know.
@kualmente

sure you can, if you are looking for stock rom, you can use this one, this ICS RUU from bootloader http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1581333... And please read the OP, so you will have stock looking phone.
Hi Everyone,
I would like to unroot back to stock. I'm currently rooted, S-OFF, running the ICS stock rom. HBoot is 1.27.
I would like to download the stock RUU for gingerbread and go back to stock gingerbread
I can't seem to find the Bell Mobility RUU for Gingerbread. If anyone can help with a link to that it would be greatly appreciated.
Second is there any issue when I load the exe of there being a problem with the HBoot version?
I do have the instructions to return to stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
I just don't want to brick my phone when returning to stock.
Thanks to all who are able to help me with this.
