I used One_X_All-In-One_Kit_v1.0 to install CWM then stupidly (I admit) and
drunkenly (I'm ashamed to admit) wiped data without creating a restore
point and when I flash custom ROMs and reboot my device freezes on the HTC
boot screen.
I've managed to locate my CID & MID (cid: ORANG001 & mid: PG5813000) and
have added them to the android-info.txt located in PG58IMG.zip but when I
boot into bootloader and select fastboot the update is found but parsed
rather than flashed.

Bit of a mess really. Any ideas?
If you've installed CWM for a different phone and wiped, then you're lucky it still works at all.
Install the right version of CWM right now.

It appears that you are HTC Dev unlocked. Because of that you will have to flash the boot.img via fastboot commands. Go to this guide to learn
how to do it.
But your Hboot version is supported by Revolutionary so I suggest you re lock your bootloader and then use Revolutionary to S-off your device before flashing the 3.32 firmware you will have to flash for any ICS ROM. Cause without you being S-off you will not be able to revert your firmware version. Plus if you are S-off your recovery can flash everything and you will not have to use fastboot to or Smart flash option in 4EXT.
I'm surprised your phone still works after using the One X method to root; considering the One X is a different phone.
Here the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300 for reference to S-Off and stuff. I recommend you change you change your CID to 11111111 as well.
Change your recovery to 4EXT. Better in my perspective.
Firstly, thank you Rusty!, T-Macgnolia and You_got_owned123.
So, I've downloaded 4EXT recovery and will flash it and I understand that I need to be S-OFF before I can flash new firmware and if I change to Super CID I can flash any carriers firmware. But.... I need to be able to boot the phone to enable HTC Sync to run Revolution. Or is there a way to run it in Fastboot usb?
As soon as I achieved S-OFF I can change to SuperCID.
BOOM!
Okay... so, I flashed 4EXT recovery (which is much better that ClockworkMod) then flashed a Gingerbread ROM (Android_Revolution_HD-Sensation_3.6.13) as it was compatible with my existing firmware and flashed the boot.img for the 1.56 kernel then used Revolutionary tool to achieve S-OFF so I could flash an ICS ROM (Sensation_3.32.401.5_odexed), GAPPS and update the firmware. I didn't SuperCID as I knew the firmware was compatible but may do that later while it's fresh in my mind.
That wasn't so hard, phew!!!

Haha, good job. Just make sure you use the approperiate firmware when flashing ICS ROMS. ICS require a different firmware than GB does.
I rooted my HTC Sensation a few months ago and I could not get custom ROMS to go past there boot logo screens so I re-installed on carrier/factory ROM from a back up on the phones SD card. I originally wanted to do this to get JellyBean on my phone has HTC'S is a little ugly Problem is I want to install the latest system up date but when I tell it to install it reboots the phone an I get the "ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.0.9" and it sits at that menu and dose nothing what so ever. I want to install the system update. but I cant WHY?

you must have pure stock rom to update by OTA
no mods,no custom kernel,no recovery
in this way you can use an ruu.exe to return the device into completely stock situation
but still you can flash a jelly bean rom if you have already the latest fw version
the problem is when your device was not booting after installing a rom because you didn't enable smartflash from recovery(that feature is only for S-ON devices as yours)
and to do that you have to install 4ext recovery

I tried to flash 10.1 cyanogen and after the the boot loop I found out I need newer version of hboot. But to get newer version of hboot apparently I have to get the phone back to stock and do the OTA update? I flashed this back before the jellybean ota rolled out. I cant seem to find my backup either.
Can someone help me with step-by-step guide on what I need to do to get this back to stock?
You don't need a different hboot, you need s-off. What's going on is that you need to fastboot flash the boot.img with that hboot. With s-off, that restriction goes away.
I hate suggesting S-OFF to everyone as it makes everything easily writeable which can be dangerous for many people -_-
But yes you can S-OFF or just fastboot flash boot boot.img from the rom you're flashing. If you're not going to be flashing often, or if you are afraid you may accidentally flash the wrong thing and brick this option does work.

So S-OFF and then "fastboot flash boot boot.img" after extracting the boot.img from the 10.1 cyanogen mod?
Or just extract the boot.img from 10.1 cyanogen and then fastboot flash boot boot.img"?
And if I wanted to get it back to stock, couldnt I just download and run this from the HTC site - htc_one_x_RUU_2.20.502.7_att_us_08022012.exe ?
So this is my situation,
after using MaximusHD 10.0.0, I would like to go back to my stock rom. The problem is that I lost my nandroid back-up because of flashing another update version of twrp. I'm a little bit new to all this android flashing stuff, so I was wondering if anybody could help me?
I was planning of using a guild for this, which i can't post because i'm a new user, who says just to relock bootloader and use a RUU. But instead of using the T-mobile version, I wanted to use a RUU file for Europe.
Before I was going to start with this, I wanted to make a nandroid back-up, but CWM can't mount my SD-card.
So, how do I start going back to the stock rom from MaximusHD 10.0.0 on my HTC One S C4?
Ask for more info if needed!
[Update]: I found a solution for my can't mount SD Problem. So can somebody help me finding a right RUU? (I live in Belgium)
Try to flash TWRP, then you can backup.
And then flash an RUU

So, do I need to first Relock my bootloader before I run the RUU? Or is it not needed because I'm S-OFF?
im also S-Off and on Hboot 2.16, now to get back to 2.15 is this the right way ?
flash my backup of stock 3.16 Jelly Bean in TWRP
relock the bootloader
Flash 3.16 RUU.exe
Thanks
So, last little question!
What happens if the RUU gives an error?
Does your ROM is still the way it was before if you cancel the RUU after error?
Or is your ROM deleted?

Nothing happens, the installer stops and you are still the same as you were. So it doesn't hurt to try them.

It's really easy, you just have to reflash the modded version of TWRP for MaximusHD 10.0.0. All the other versions of TWRP or cwm won't work.

Yes, that's the one! But take the file shipped with MaximusHD 10.0.0 because it's a modded version, and not the normal one of 2.6.1

Yes I know its modded version , I tried to push it but it cant be done, Since I have CWM recovery, i cant put this TWRP one from maximus, it says failed: remote not allowed. I think it is because I relocked my bootloader, If I have to unlock it again, i wont be able to do it since cant use sd properly, so its doomed circle i think, need really big help guys . thanks in advance !
This is what i did.
1.oem relock
2. install org RUU, i downloaded one of the exe's and just let it do it's thing.
3. done.
4. rooted
5. flashed twrp
Okay,
So I just want to be sure about this.
Are these the ONLY steps I have to take?
1) Put device in Fastboot USB
2) Run RUU -> in this case http://www.androidruu.com/getdownload.php?file=Ville/RUU_Ville_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.16.401.8_Radio_1.11.50.05.28_10.27.50.08L_release_301814_signed_2_4.exe
3) I have my old phone back with stock rom.

Relock the phone first, i don't know why, but i read on the forums that you have too when returning to stock.
1. in cmd "fastboot oem lock" phone now says "relocked"
2. from fastboot run RUU exe and wait.
3. done
In my case the RUU flashed me back to hboot 1.13, so install all updates from htc, then it updated to hboot 2.15.
So now you need to re-unlock the phone, and flash a new recovery.
If you want CM11 hboot 2.15 you need to flash modded recovery from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2528113
If you don't CM11 flash will fail.
Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1583427&highlight=tutorial and follow STEP 1.
That should re-unlock the phone.
STEP 2 flashes new recovery. Skip STEP 3.
After recovery has been flashed, boot into recovery, then press "reboot" and reboot to bootloader, if you flashed twrp it will ask to install superSU.
Now you are ready to flash anything again.
Is it necessary to re unlock?
Because i'm not planning on changing rom soon.
Thanks for the help!
You don't need to flash new rom, if you want to stay on stock you can, stock will still boot fine afterwards.

When i executed RUU, it showed me "incorrect image. Find the correct RUU."
Which RUU i have to download for my phone?
Hi!
I've been playing with my K2_UL lately, but now I kind of regret it. I unlocked the bootloader, flashed cwm recovery, rooted the device and got ready for s-off, but then I realized that... I don't actually need all of this. I know it's stupid.
I relocked the bootloader and flashed stock recovery (at least I think so). Then I just wanted to factory reset the device, just to get rid of superuser. Besides the flags (tampered, relocked, warning...), the biggest problem is that I can't factory reset my phone (not even in system settings). It seems that the problem lies in hboot. Anything I choose just ends with bootloader rebooting.
To sum-up whole post, I want to:
Fix the hboot or flash the stock one to get factory reset working.
Flash the stock recovery.
Unroot my device completely.
I read couple of threads, but I couldn't find any solution, because I don't really know what to look for.
If using a RUU will solve my problem, please provide a link. I searched many forums and found some links, but they all were dead.
The phone's running on stock 4.2.2. Bootloader:

I made a guide to get back completely stock. But you need S-off to go this way.
Also your mid would be good to know.
