revert back to stock to update to ICS - HTC Sensation

Hi , few months ago i rooted my phone ( did not install any custom rom) only the clockwork recovery mod (somethin like that) i think , so now i wanna go back to stock so i can install ICS, i download my RUU and a pg58IMG.zip file(what is that for) , so the problem is that my phone is connected in charging mod to my pc , and debugging is on , but adb devices cant read it , what should i do ?
Please any additional info would be appreciated , thank you alot

as far as i know, if you want to install stock htc ics, you just download the original RUU, run setup and plug in your phone, you don't need clockwork recovery or anything else like that, just follow the steps from the HTC RUU setup...

If you have received the FOTA updated just changed the recovery to stock HTC Recovery. And flash or run the OTA update. I use this guide to get back to stock HTC Recovery it may also help you [GUIDE] Get Stock Recovery/Install OTA Updates without losing data.

[Q] I need some answers about Nexus S

So I bought Nexus S from second hand recently mostly because it will get official ICS support from Google.
So because it's second hand buy, I really don't know if I'm using original bootloader, kernel, radio etc.
It's rooted (because I have Superuser app), I think it has stock 2.3.6 android (build number GRK39F) and kernel version 2.6.35.7-gf5f63ef, [email protected]#1.
Can someone who use stock android and original kernels confrime to me that this is right version?
I really want to update to ICS using incremental update which I found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445635) but I'm affraid to don't screw something because of bad experience when I radio bricked my desire
Can I update it to ICS or I need to do unroot or something?
Just download the correct stock ICS rom for your device (if it is I9020T or I9023) ,put it on the SD root and then flash it using the stock or CWM recovery and be done with it (if you need the ICS)
most likely you won't be update by OTA because you are rooted (system file verification will fail)
just download stock ICS ROM and flash it ...
Ota will install fine if its a stock rom with just root. The update script basically checks that everything that should be there is there . If there is something else in there like su it don't matter.
flashing a new rom is the best way to go if you have cwm installed already
I succesfuly flashed ICS and first impressions are very good.
But I think I lost recovery...

flash a CWM recovery via adb , or there is TWRP recovery in DEV section , which is very good .

Need Clockworkmod Backup

Hi. I rooted my phone with this tool: http://www.unlockroot.com/
I wiped my current android and tried to install a rom (not matter what rom i try, it's stock on the HTC logo when booting)
A nandroid/cwm backup might be able to fix the problem (I'm not sure) but i don't got one, and it would be very appreciated if someone could take a backup and upload it
Do you mean you need to flash back some stock ROM you had on the phone before wiping the data?
What about to flash (via CWM) some of the pre-rooted stock ROMs available here:

Try to run an RUU and then put you costum roms on you´re device again
I prefer this RUU "RUU_Saga_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.1_Radio_20.28b.30.0805U_38.03.02.11_M_release_177977_signed".

I've got to sell my Sensation XE. I've done S-OFF, perm root, 4ext recovery, firmware update to install ICS by Android Revolution HD. Now I would like to delete perm root and install a stock rom, so the person that buy my phone can do OTA update without provlems. How can I achieve this? Thank you

stock recovery image file needed
Hi, needing a bit of help here to restore stock recovery on my Sensation so I can catch OTA ICS update from Three uk. Phone is rooted with revolutionary custom recovery. I need a copy of image file for my software version: 1.45.771.5 so I can use Android Recovery Manager.
All help greatly appreciated!!!!
Any stock recovery should do the job, it doesn't matter whether it's from a 3 ROM or not.
Can your not stick the OTA .zip on your SD card and flash it via the custom recovery, though? I've done that via CWM on a couple of other phones.
Thanks for the reply Rusty, unfortunately had no luck using both methods you suggest, must be doing something wrong

Easiest way to reinstall stock rom

Hi all as title states my moto g is downloading the new 5.0 update but during install it says error and switches phone back on with no changes made. It was rooted and custom firmware was installed. Since then uts back to fully unrooted, stock recovery is reinstalled and bootloader is still unlocked. However still it errors a quarter into installing.
So i have come to the assumption that it is best for me to revert/ reinstall the stock 4.4.4 rom back on and try updating after that. However seen loads of complicated methods on how to reinstall the stock firmware onto my phone so want the easiest way if possible.
In attatchments is the info from the current stock rom that is on the phone (will state a custom rom has never been installed to the phone always been stock) and i have downloaded the following to put onto it:
XT1032_RETAIL-GB_4.4.4_KXB21.14-L1.40_36_cid7_CFC_1FF.xml.zip
Ive tried using the mototools v3.1 and does abserlitly nothing non of the commants work or do anything with my phone.
So which is the easiest method?
Many Thanks
major problems!!!!!
Stock recovery installed to phone. Started update it was installing and got to 3/4 of the way through, errored, restarted and not goes in a loop saying no command!
Phone will not switch on!!!
Why has this happened?
If fastboot is too convoluted - using a custom recovery, flash one of these zips:

What update were you installing when it errored?

[q] how to upgrade from 4.4.4 to 5.0.2 on rooted xt1032?

I have tryed OTA upgrade and when It woud prompt me to the upgrade installation window and I'd confirm it. My phone would shut down and enter TWRP custom recovery and upgrade would fail for some reason then if I wouldn't delete chache my phone would continuesly reboot to TWRP and try to install the update with failure. I jave tryed to use MDM too but it just wouldn't find my device. Tryed disabling USB DEBUGING and making USB CONNETION as MEDIA DEVICE STORAGE still nothing have worked to make my device identified.
I have read that I need to install ORIGINAL UNTOUCHED FIRMWARE, but I don't know how and which tools should I use.
Thank you!
Omg of course you need untoched stock ROM, you can't install this with custom recovery, you need to flash stock 4.4.4 via mfastboot, then upgrade motorola update services and you will get OTA to install, search for tutorial about how to install stock rom, and this is not Q&A section....
