[Q] How to revert back to stock rom?

So I posted on another thread that I am having issues with my 4g working on the new custom rom with T Mobile USA, after reading around some more I found out (not exactly sure about this) but that the custom rom (cyanogenmod) does not work well with t mobile sensation 4g.
I never backed up my stock rom, how do I revert back to it? do I just do a wipe? do I just do it like installing a custom rom but just point it to a stock rom?
Thanks guys.

Wiping won't revert you to stock if you're already on a custom rom.
It just... wipes your phone. Stock roms install with a RUU executable, not a flashable zip like custom roms.
Follow this guide to write SUPERCID if you haven't done so. It lets you flash any rom that is carrier/region locked.
Then pick your choice of RUU from this thread and flash. These are all stock roms.
Remember to backup cause it will wipe everything.

Do I need to do the SUPERCID if I am flashing to TMOUS rom? since this phone came with out I don't need it right?
EDIT:
Also to confirm on how to install the stock rom, I just put that into my root directory. Go to recovery, wipe everything, than install from sdcard correct? No need to do anything special?

You won't have to write SUPERCID if your phone came with TMOUS stock. It is highly recommended though, unless you are perfectly sure the RUU you download is the right one.
Download the relevant file to your PC, connect your device via USB and double-click the executable. You won't need to copy it to sd or go into recovery. It will do everything for you.
Word of warning. Do not, under ANY circumstances interrupt the RUU update process. You will brick the phone.
EDIT: Remember to check the MD5 before flashing

Awesome it worked. Also my 4g data works on stock firmware.
Does this mean the custom rom I installed (cyanogenmod) Wont work with my carrier?
I tried installing different radios it didn't work, though on stock rom it works perfectly.

Custom roms work fine with Tmous. The only difference is the 4g icon does not display.
It is the same in data speeds.
On Tmous stock Rom it constantly says 4g.
It will not switch the icon back and forth.
Bit it is switching internally.
There is no difference in the connection speeds at all.

This will take you back to stock rom and stock S-off.

If I revert back to stock rom will I lose the unlock for the carrier?

I can’t find the right ruu, why the hell r they labeled like that. My htc sensation is unlocked, what ruu do I need

Have a look at:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Pyramid
I believe the TMOUS ones are the right ones for you.
3.32.xxx will give you ICS.
I've attached a file that is supposed to list the carrier/location codes used in the RUU names.

Locked myself out - how to flash new recovery?

Good Afternoon to all of you!
So here is my problem.
I S-Offed my HTC Sensation and afterwards installed Revolutionary Recovery following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300
Afterwards I installed the Firmware 3.30 and Virtuouse S4X Rom successfully on my device. But I wasnt to happy with this Rom so I decided I want to go for Energy Rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226564).
Unfortunalety, the flashing of this ROM doesnt worked, while flashing it said "Status 1 Error". I searched in the post of this ROM and found out that its recommended to install it with a earlier release of Revolutionary Recovery or better with 4EXT Touch Recovery.
My big problem is: How do I install 4EXT Touch Recovery when I dont have any bootable ROM on my device anymore?? I tryed the Android Flasher but it didnt work...
Please help, I dont know what to do.
Best regardy,
Journeyman91

Remove sdcard put it in card reader

Please tell me you have a nandroid back up to revert to. And are you SuperCID as well? If you did back up, just revert back to the prior rom, I assume stock Sense. Then go to the market or the threads here to download the 4ext recovery.

Ever get ur phone up and running yet?

{HELP} device is keep booting into recovey -- SOLVED --

To the Guru of this forum. After my last rom flashing my device is keeping booting into recovery :crying:. Is it briked ? If so my only hope is the unbricking project ? Thanks in advance.

What recovery are you running?
Can you use the power menu within recovery to boot into bootloader?
Also, please provide as much pertinent info as possible, ie: rom you flashed, firmware, s-off or s-on, locked or unlocked. With your description it's basically like saying, "my car makes a noise all the time. what is causing it?".

Its not bricked.If u can enter recovery
Sent from my HTC sensation

Sorry you are right:
What recovery are you running? 4Ext
Can you use the power menu within recovery to boot into bootloader? yes
The device is HTC unlocked with S-On.
Rom JBMIUI v4.1 2.8.31 R2.
HBOOT 1.27.0000
firmware 3.33.401.6
I've format everything but SD. Restored the most recent back up done today before flashing. Once it reboots HTC logo comes up once, black screen, HTC logo, 4Ext is coming up saying that smartflash it is set to update the boot partition on next system start asking if this should be removed.
I've downloaded and installed again PG58IMG *different files using bootloader
I've founded a 3.33.401.6-Unsecured-Boot.img,+Root+Busybox zip file that can be installed via recovery but it did not help.
At this point I need a bit of help to look into the right direction and I'm not sure that Unbrick_Pyramid is the right way.
Thanks again.

Try turning off smartflash and flash a 3.33 stock rom to see if it will boot.
What was your last working setup, and what were you trying to install?

Hi. Manage to flash a stock 3.33.
It stopped to reboot straight into recovery.
Sits now on HTC logo now for about 10 mins. I plan to let him run for 1 hr and see what happens.
Was thinking to install CWM on the basis that could be a 4ext recovery issue, toughs?

If you can install clockworkmod that may help.
Tge device isnt getting the message that it has already booted into recovery once. So something may be jacked up with 4ext.
Clockwork may bypass all that when it doesnt know what to do with that signal to run smartflash.
Worst case scenario...put a full pm58img containing a rom and recovery on the sf card and flash that through bootloader.
You should still be able to get to bootloader as the device looks for that option first.

And did that help? Are you able to get into recovery without errors now? If so you should be able to flash a fresh version of any ROM.
Try that first. Get any ROM. Flash it. See if it boots.
If you have successfully replaced 4EXT I will bet a fresh flash of a ROM will now boot.
Also worth a shot is replacing or upgrading the firmware, as that could be what's sending the phone into recovery on each boot (though this is less likely that 4EXT just being broken)
Flash a firmware PM58IMG like 3.32 or 3.33 and see if that helps.
But for starters, put a fresh ROM on the SD card and flash it with CWM. (BE SURE IT'S A ROM THAT DOESN'T REQUIRE 4EXT!!)
Once you've got it all fixed you can switch back to 4EXT. I have a feeling it was just the copy you were running that got botched. The software itself is solid and stable. A new copy shoudl work fine now.

CWM v5.0.2.0 was installed fine.
3.33 firmware installed once again.
Using this I've installed ROM that I already did in the past w/o luck, they all sit on the HTC logo. Is like the initial boot sequence is broken. Is boot.img part of the firmware or ROM ?
Trying to download some additional ones.
Thanks,

The more details you give, the better the answers will be. Don't consider any detail too small.
What do you mean you installed ROM's that you had done in the past? Do you mean you are trying to restore a backup made with 4EXT?
That won't work. You need to flash a fresh version of the ROM after wiping.
Also, CWM won't install some ROM's that you may have used in the past. What ROM are you trying to install?
The HTC logo that first pops up when you hit the power button is part of the firmware.
Make sure you do a full wipe of everything but the SD card from within CWM. Get whatever's causing the problem off that way. Then flash a fresh install of a ROM from scratch.

Hi.
I did not use any backup only fresh ROMs: ARHD, Elegantia, but also stock ROMs I could find.
I've tried also some PG58IMG with ROM included.
Cheers.

Hallo, after trying all option the following did work for me:
- re-lock bootloader via fastboot oem lock
- apply stock ROM founded in this list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
- rebooted fine
I guess that HTC RUU had some superpower and erase and installed whatever file(s) were corrupted.
Now I'm on stock 3.6 - fw 3.33.401.106 - radio 11.76A.3504.00UU_11.24A.3504.31_M

[Help] HBoot and ClockWordMod recovery

Hi everyone,
I am a bit confused concerning the Hboot version and CWM recovery. Here is the situation :
I put a custom ROM long time ago (HTC operator ROM for the HTC official ROM). A few days ago, HTC deploy an update (OTA). My phone downloaded it and i tried to install it. However, CWM told me "can't find the XXX.zip" etc on the SD Card. So i tried "Install from zip" in CWM and it did it good.
However, since this, I lost my wifi tether so I thought I lost root and so on. Then, I flashed again with that : RUU-Pyramid-ICS-hTC-Europe-3.33.401.53-Radio-11.76A.3504.00U-11.24A.3504.31-M-release-280871-signed.exe (like the first time but the last version).
To root again, etc., i did that :
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
However, CWM recovery never wanted to start from the bootloader menu (i have only the CWM loading screen and then, my phone reboot normally).
I tried then to downgrade my HBoot to 1.17.2008 and from that, I can now access the CWM recovery. However, with that Hboot, my phone is stucked on the loading HTC screen (white screen and HTC green logo). When I put the HBoot back to 1.27.1100, I can't access CWM but i can start my phone.
What is the problem and how could I make that phone work good?
NB : I'm S-OFF, etc..
Thank you everyone ! :laugh:

Hi malybru,
Thank you for your answer. As a matter of fact, I'm back with hboot 1.27. I can also tell you that I've install 4 EXT yesterday and it runs very well (backup, etc.) even if I can't with CWM now, so it is a good point.
Concerning formating all partitions, can you tell me what partitions will be format precisely ? Finally, I'd like to install that OpenSentation2 which looks good (that thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002883). The trouble is that I was wondering the following questions :
1. The Radio will be flashed ? I dont wan't to lose that but I dont know the relation flashing a ROM or erasing partition and the Radio ROM.
2. Can I flash a Rom like that or should I take care of the firmware, the radio, or anything else before all?
3. What do you mean by saying "I think that when you ran the RUU,you lost your recovery" ?
Thank you in advance for advices
Have a nice day !

1) and 2) :if you have 3.32fw or 3.33fw you are fine
3)by using an RUU returns your device into completely stock situation as you bought it
that means that you have also stock recovery.that's why you lost your first recovery(CWM recovery)
first format all partitions(except sdcard) from recovery
then follow the installation steps from rom thread

I did it with another HTC Sensation and it worked well, that's why I don't understand. On top of that, the CWM recovery works when i put a 1.17 hboot. I'm confused.
Than you for all that information . Would it be possible with 4EXT (after deleting all partitions (except sd card) and flashing a ICS rom) to come back to what I have now with a 4 EXT backup? I mean, that backup is a 4.0 android, a htc sense rom, and so on. There's no compatibility problem to put a very different backup ?
Thank you

[Q] SD card appears as only 48MB. how come?

Hi, seems like my One S's sdcard partition has corrupted. been using TWRP 2.500 and recently upadted to 2.6.30 to use the new Maximus Rom. During the rom installation, I wiped the sdcard sectrion by mistake so I couldn't get to flash the zip file, then, I've tried multiple times of recovery.img flashings via RUU mode or on the bootloader screen. Finally when I got the TWRP recovery mode again, it says the sdcard folder only accepts 48 MB so I cannot push any custom roms since they are bigger than 500MB... Any ideas? Should I send it to the repair shops? Please Help!! Thank you!
FYI, my phone was
Tampered, Unlocked, S-off
also, when I press mount button on TWRP, this list appears
Cache
Data
Internal SDcard
System
USB-OTG
but I select Internal SD, the computer says the removable disk has only 48MB of available space.(I wiped it multiple times!)

Yes, don't sweat it. It is repairable.
It's hard for my to tell what you missed, because you didn't write what you did. So just follow installation instructions in the first post of maximus Rom. (flash new firmware, modified recovery, then Rom).

All of these steps work for me except flashing the recovery as a ZIP. I get the wrong CID error (code 42 if i remember correctly). Thing is, I flash the .img directly usign fastboot flash recovery and that works but then the install process says, in android, transfer ROM. At this point, I don't have access to the SD card and the ROM is not in my sd card (it was wiped anyway?)
*EDIT*
Ok I changed my CID to 1111111 and now it works to flash the firmware. I still get partitions errors it seems though.
What I did is flash the stock recovery, clear storage, factory reset, reflashed the firmware given in Maximus thread, then the TWRP given and still, I get problems with my sdcard not mounting?

All of these steps work for me except flashing the recovery as a ZIP. I get the wrong CID error (code 42 if i remember correctly). Thing is, I flash the .img directly usign fastboot flash recovery and that works but then the install process says, in android, transfer ROM. At this point, I don't have access to the SD card and the ROM is not in my sd card (it was wiped anyway?)

if you are talking about mounting usb storage in recovery, then no, you cannot do that on Maximus HD rom. (it's a modified TWRP to work on the new firmware)
You can sideload in TWRP or ADB push the rom to your sdcard.
I would give you a link to a page describing it, but search is unavailable right now, have to try later.
But just search that thread with keyword sideload. There you will find the exact commands to load the rom onto your sdcard.

Thanks
I went back to CM, didn't like maximus so much and it didn't fix my EDGE only problem so

It went back to 48mb
Hi i had the same problem with my htc one s.So i paniced and for some reason i put s-on(I deleted the os from the pc using mount storage) I managed to fix it by installing the recovery as zip. Then i tried to adb sideload a rom but it didn't work. So i went to boot loader then to fast boot and did fastboot flash zip Energyrom.zip. That gave me an error so i went back to recovery to try to side load the rom again, but my sdcard went back to 48mb.I reflashed the recovery (the one from install package) same thing . What do i do????? I need help asap i want my phone back (IM ONLY 12) Please reply asap.

I think the easiest way is to flash the stock recovery and then do a sdcard wipe then a factory reset.
After that, you go through the process as described in the maximus rom thread, you will have to flash with sideload. That should work afterward

I am doomed
Hi guys,
Yesterday I decided to try MaximusROM 10.0.0 HD on my HTC One S, which is s-OFF and with superCID. The problem is: I didn't flashed first the rom as it was said, and I just used the Installation Package, installing directly the firmware.zip and the modified recovery. I tried to follow the steps written before, but now my phone works with the stock rom but it says that there are only 48mb in sd card, and that means that I can't even take photos, because I have no memory left. I found out that my phone, when is booted up, in settings says that I have 15,96GB of space for applications. What can I do?
