[Q] return to stock

Hi all,
I want to return my phone to stock so i am trying to flash the original RUU but this does not work.
Do i have to relock? if so how is that done? through the adb command?
is it possible for to get locked written in bootloader as in some threads it says this can only be set to relocked, is this correct?

You can relock the bootloader using adb !
Boot into fastboot, Open a command window from your adb folder (shift and right click)
Type in: fastboot oem lock
That will relock the bootloader, RUU needs a lock bootloader ! There is no way to get **LOCKED** back !! Only **RELOCKED** But this shouldnt affect your warranty.
You may also need the stock recovery in order for the RUU to work, Sometimes you do sometimes you dont..

I assume i should flash this with fastboot correct? - done

If I wanna return to stock, after locking the bootloader, does it have to be the same version ROM I had initially? Or can I flash any version RUU provided it matches my phone model? Because I don't know what version I had when I bought the phone, I rooted and flashed CM9 straight away.

Hi all, I have some trouble to restore to a stock rom. I have a debranded HOS from Vodafone Spain. I did it helped by the famous Toolkit, so it was with the bootloader unlocked, with a CWM Recovery and then I applied a stock rom by CWM (1.73 about Vodafone to 1.53 but the WWE European one). But I still wasn't happy, can't upload it by OTA and I dislike to do it manually with each new version, plus backups, etc.
Then I changed the CID to HTC Europe (HTC__001); and now the system detects a new version to update it, but when it restart to apply it appears an error during the process, something like "assert failed....... (Status 7)"
I tried also by the RUU, and this way gave me the error 155.
Somebody know if this way is available?. Change the CID and then apply the respective RUU?
Something else... I remember in my old Desire to restore everything, like factory, placing a rom into a "SD" with a especific format (depends of the model), like PG88IMG.zip. Somebody know if is possible for this newer model?

Works perfectly !! thanks for the tuto ! you saved us !

When you have the RUU, run it without a device first. When the first window of the RUU opens, drag it to the side of your screen, open Explorer and search your windows drive for "rom.zip". When you find it copy it to another location and close the RUU window.
Open rom.zip archive and you will find a file called "android-info.txt" open it and see if your cid is listed there. If it is present you can flash this RUU safely.

Yep, it's in there. Thank you guys!

What is the significance of HBOOT Preupdate? All the RUUs have a Preupdate value 13, my phone has a Preupdate value of 12. That doesn't matter probably?

Thanks for your help, but it's not there. Is there any way to restore DS without this RUU? It's bootloader unlocked, rooted, has the custom recovery. unfortunately the "misc version" was not uploaded in adb mode, thus I cannot change the main version, to be able to downgrade it. But since the main version is "too high" (2.10.161.5) and there is no adb mode and I dont have the original RUU there is nothing to do. Is it possible somehow to change the main version in fastboot???? I think this would be the only chance without the the ruu.

Guess you forgot to fastboot flash boot boot.img
Also, why would you need a RUU anyway? You can still enter recovery, can't you? Heck, of course you can: even if you couldn't you could always fastboot flash recovery recovery.img a working one.
I fail to see why a RUU would be necessary here.

Thanks for your help, but I dont really understand what u say..... Right now there is clockwork 5.0.2.0 on it, we tried to install custom roms, which seemed to be done, but the phone stops at HTC logo after flashing. I guess I could flash back the original recovery (actually I only have one from RUU 1.32.161.1), but how would it solve my problem? How about the other image files, like system, hboot etc? Please exlain it to me a bit more detailed! Thx

Lets see again: bootloader unlocked, cwm 5.0.2.0 installed, as you adviced I flased an official 1.32.161.1(older than the original 2.10.161.5) boot.img, then tried to install from recovery the custom rom, which still seems to be ok, but the phone freezes at htc logo during boot. This custom rom is a well known working version, there shouldnt be any problem. What else can I do without the RUU?

That's a tough one to nail down. Below is the stock recovery from the 1.84 t-mobile OTA. Maybe flash that and try the clear storage option.
Also, you might try doing the the Mainver Fix in the all in one tool kit. It's an option in the box in the lower right hand corner.

This same thing happened to me at some point. I would suggest just starting over and redoing all the steps.
0. Flash original radio
1. Flash stock recovery
2. Use stock recovery "clear storage" option
3. Factory reset.
4. Enable usb debugging
5. Uninstall usb drivers from your computer
6. Reinstall HTC USB driver
7. Lock bootloader
8. Switch usb cable
9. Run RUU.
If that doesn't work use a hammer and smash the thing =)
Actually instead of using a hammer I would change to super cid and use a different RUU that had the same hboot as the one your on.

Extract the Rom.zip from the RUU, rename to PJ40IMG.zip, place on root of SD card.

@usaf22 really? Did that method work for you?(thought it may not work because we don't have s-off) Did it also remove the tampered and relocked banners? Thanks for both of you guys help will give it a go.
(Edit Hboot wont detect the PJ40IMG.zip )

I have this exact same problem. The recovery cannot be flashed. I get a signature failed. I managed to download the the recovery just fine though. I need to flash the stock recovery so that I can do that latest update, but now I can't even enter the recovery. I get a security warning message next to Relocked everytime I try to get in... Awesome.
PS: The phone I already tried the RUU and I got a 155. Because you can only downgrade if you are S-OFF. So... What are we supposed to do now..?

I'm going to assume that by now you have taken off the phone everything you wanted to back up. You flashed the stock recovery onto the phone right? And now your bootloader is relocked?
If so do this:
enter fastboot
then select the bootloader option.
clear storage
factory reset
select fastboot again.
Run the RUU

I got it working guys, but I know why. I was using the incorrect RUU. The link said it was the one for 1.83 but it was for the 1.5 version. I download it again and sure enough it's the 1.83 one. I guess I'm back to work now.

One question and this may save a big headache lol... did you LOCK your bootloader back? I had a couple RUU's that didn't work for me either, but I didn't follow the step of locking the bootloader I was just trying to flash over. Once I relocked I was good to go.

Thanks everyone yes I relocked the bootloader, hey @ dc211 can you provide a link for a successful RUU that you have used...plznthnx

Your problem is that there is only 1 RUU you can use. Only 2 exist for T-mobile US and one you can't use because the hboot is lower then yours. But you're kinda lucky that a new OTA came out today. So a newer T-mobile US RUU should be out in a few days, that's normally how long it takes football to get them.
Here's a link to eh 1.83 RUU that should be fast. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/76257867/RUU_Ville_U_TMOUS_1.84.531.2_R2_Radio_0.16.31501S.16_2_10.22.31501S.10L_release_263233_signed.exe
Our you can try to get the OTA. You should be able to see it now if you check for software updates but it should fail to install. I saw you're using the 1.06es radio. You'd have to go back to the original radio, recovery, lock the booloader and factory reset. For it to work.
I know you should be able to get it working I was stuck where you're at but my Hboot also said "Security Warning" and RUU's & OTA's wouldn't run which I really haven't seen anyone else get.

Help with HTC Desire S (bricked)

OK, need a bit of help with a Desire S that can only get to HBOOT screen (vol down + power) otherwise it's just a white HTC screen.
Phone is S-ON. HBOOT 0.98.002.
I've tried Revolutionary.io's guide to convert to S-OFF but I just get 'Waiting for Device'. Tried uninstalling HTC drivers then installing again without luck, disabling firewall and AV, still no luck. Kinda given up on that front.
Trying 'fastboot devices', device is recognised, but if I try to flash a recovery ROM from fastboot I get an 'out of memory' error.
I don't know if USB debugging is enabled or not (how can I tell & enable from HBOOT if not)?
I thought about going via HTCDEV and their method, but my HBOOT is at the wrong version (can I upgrade it to V 2.000.2?)
I'm really running out of options now....anything else I can try??? HELPPPP!

Run htc ruu exe file and don't close the windows, find rom.zip in windows temp folder, rename it to PG88IMG.zip ale copy to sdcard. Turn on your phone in hboot mode, rom will be flashed automaticaly.
Or just go to fastboot mode in hboot and then run RUU, should work if you have bootloader locker (relocked).

sorry, but I'm really not getting this. I'm looking for a RUU to flash a recovery ROM. When I went to HTC dev, there were all the ROMs for all the different carriers. I don't know what mine is. I tried downloading one for Vodafone, unzipped and searched for RUU.exe but there isn't one.
I need to get to this RUU.exe but dont know how.:crying:

what is a recovery ROM? anyway, people over here at the DS forum has already extracted the radio, Hboot and ROM of official ICS. search around...

I had a bit of progress. I downloaded the latest 4.0 RUU util from HTC Dev, ran it, extracted the ROM.zip and renamed it to PG88IMG.zip, copied it up to the SD card, rebooted the phone into FASTBOOT and the phone recognised it and started installing.
Wahey, I thought, that's it I've cracked it, but then it gets stuck on Updating the bootloader. Stuck for nearly an hour. Tried twice and different SD cards...same thing.
Is this because I'm still S-ON and bootloader is locked, or do you think my internal memory is fried?

Absolutely irrelevant. He's not flashing anything himself, he's executing RUU which can flash everything.

OK, so how do I enable USB debugging if I can only get into HBOOT? Is there a FASTboot or ADB command that can do it? I think that's what's stopping Revolutionary.

Yes you can. You don't need to achieve S-OFF to install custom ROM. I don't recommend you to install Official RUU ICS because it has been reported many times to be buggy and laggy. If you want a better feeling of that, you should install IceDS or IceCreamSaga ROMs.

I have another problem. I wanted put RUU-ICS, but always get message ERROR 155. Every time, I dont know why. I am from Serbia, and people from HTC send me a link for RUU - ICS, and when I start with proces- eject ERROR 155-every time, after I tried another RUU-ICS again error 155, I tried 4 RUU- ics, and always error 155.
Why I get always this message, and what I do?. S-ON, bootloader-relocked, rooted phone.

i tried this and i flashed a custom rom with s-on and it just keeps booting into recovery mode

Why I get always this message, and what I do?. S-ON, bootloader-relocked, rooted phone.

Is your phone branded to any mobile carrier- by any chance?
Because if it was, to override the branded version by WWE 4.0.4

If i remember correctly, error 155 refers to CID mismatch- wrong RUU version
But in your best interest is to double check what others say
Edit: unles something has changed,
there was only one ics ruu version for desire s
to be found on htcdev website..
How come you found four of them?

Did you flash the boot.img?

it didnt give me an option for boot.img it used the aroma installer

message ERROR 155 for original RUU ICS - means that you have unlocked bootlocker.
You must relock bootlocker with fastboot and start installation again - it will work.
Commant: "fastboot oem lock"

I have this problem. Because my girl friend dont want custom ROM, I install RUU-ICS. But always when start flashing,eject 155 error, bootloader first unlocked, after before process I locked again bootloader,and in HBOOT writing RELOCKED-you say this is mistake because bootloader is unlocked, it not true- on my case.
After I use HTC SYNC- register phone and recognized, everything pass easy,and ROM is installed.

Since your device is still s-on you need flash the boot.img manually.
Extract the boot.img from the rom, boot your device into fastboot and enter
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

Flashing pacman into my friend's desire s , after unlocking it, i tried every recovery, formatting every partition manually, and flashing the boot.img using fast boot, but could not get beyond the white HTC screen. I wonder why it was being so... I own a one s, and have used multiple sense and aosp based ROMs on it without a hiccup (am s-on).
Any help would be really appreciated
Thanks a lot
