Hi,
My battery has been acting up for almost half a year now and my usage time is half of what it was when i got it. I have been installing several different ROMs and kernels so I am at a lost on what's wrong. So I have decided to install a RUU to see if a total reset can fix my phone.
I found this page: http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Ville
Does anybody know which RUU from the link is the newest/best? Will I get updates from HTC when I do this?
Currently running trickdroid 10.3.2, bricked kernel, twrp 2.3.3, S-OFF and superCID - is there anything in particular I should know before doing this?
I have never installed a RUU before, hope somebody can help
anyone? Or perhaps just a part answer

Choose RUU according to your CID.
Must restore original CID to avaoid having problems with OTA updates.
If you receive OTA updates with superCID, a brick is going to welcome you.

Ok so i am in a similar fix.
I obtained S-Off/superCID the very next day i got my One S .. things were running smooth on stock. Looked out for some ROMS and finally installed one. Now I want to revert to my stock ROM while maintaining S-off/root. My problem is only that i don't find this ROM stable or the kernel .. just want to revert to stock.
Live in Pakistan, hence i doubt OTA is going to ever cause me any trouble. Could you please recommend which RRU should i install?
Would really appreciate some help from a fellow countryman

Yes, you're right. Latest 4.2.2 Custom ROMs are having some bugs at the moment.
I need to know some details before I recommend anything.
1. S3/S4 version processor? (CPU-Z from play store will tell you that)
2. CID & MID (CID getter from play store will tell you that)
3. Last Stock firmware you had/installed?
4. HBOOT version?

Okay that's good but I need to know the original CID that the phone was shipped with.
Also, I'll need to know MID (Model ID). You can find it out via CID GETTER. When you open the app search for the line [ro.aa.modelid]: PJxxxxxxx that's the model ID

Ok. I deem this RUU to be the most suitable for you, which is Here.
Just run the RUU and it will do the job for you.
A word or two of caution here:
1. The RUU will erase everything.
2. After the RUU, you might want to change your CID back to HTC__001 because it has been rumored that HTC will release JellyBean 4.2.2 + Sense 5 for the One S. If you update the ONE S via OTA with SUPERCID, you will brick your device.
And anyway, SuperCID is not necessary at all for flashing Custom ROMs.
3. You will lose the Root for sure. But you can flash custom recovery + SuperSU again after going stock.
Edit: Oh! and match the MD5 hash of the downloaded file and the one on the server. MD5 checking utility is on XDA somewhere.
Edit 2: The CID in all cases comprises of 8 characters. i.e HTC__001 (8 chars), BM___001 (8 chars, my CID) etc. So when changing the CID, be sure to have an 8 character CID.
regards

Thanks a lot brother!
Will follow your instructions. I was following a guide (All in one tool kit for ONE S) to achieve S-OFF for rooting and following that procedure the CID was reset as well. Not sure whether i can achieve S-OFF without meddling with the CID .... This being my first HTC after SGS and SGS2.

No problem at all.
Ok. Some interesting info for you again:
- S-OFF/SuperCID is not necessary for Rooting/Custom Recovery/Flashing Custom ROMs. You must have missed something.
- Just need to Unlock bootloader to Root/Flash custom recovery/custom ROM

For all I have read, the reason for going after S-Off to begin with is essentially to gain capability to flash customer roms. I feel sorry for being a consistent bother, but could you please guide me towards a thread where I can learn rooting without messing with S-Off ...

haha... Yes..
Well the All-in-One-Toolkit by Hasoon2000 is the one you have to follow. But no S-OFFing/SuperCID.
You just need the bootloader unlocked to get Rooted/Custom ROM/Recovery.
Since you have already unlocked the bootloader, I think it's not necessary to use the AIO toolkit again.
What we need is this:
- Run the RUU. (Run it first, and if it gives you errors, you might need to Relock your bootloader which is quite simple).
[For the latter part] - Then if you want to Root you stock ROM, we will have to flash custom Recovery, which again is quite simple and can be flashed from fastboot. I'll guide you on this part later when you are stock again. No biggy.

AOA Orak,
I installed the RUU and am back to stock now. Using the toolkit installed TWRP S4 recovery but when i try to go into recovery a red triangle with an exclamation mark appears; the phone stays with it for a while and then reboots to normal desktop. Tried it a number of times with the same result. Since i am unable to go into recovery, i cannot flash the supersu.zip and thus no root :/ Should I go for CWM?

Ok so i figured it out in the meanwhile .. I had locked the bootloader before running the RUU. Unlocked it, installed recovery and flashed SU successfully.
So now I have two questions:
1- Do i need to re-lock the bootloader? If yes, will I still be able to flash custom roms?
2- How do i revert my original CID value? Will 'fastboot writecid HTC__001' do the trick? Are there any pre-requisites for it?

- Okay before anything, i would advise to flash TWRP 2.3.3.0 recovery and you will avoid many issues currently being faced with 2.5.0.0.
You can find 2.3.3.0 Here.
If you need help on flashing, ask away.
- now your questions:
1. No and No
2. You have to boot into bootloader and then go into FASTBOOT and write the command
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
BTW, I assume you have adb+fastboot files on your PC?

I am looking for a Stock T-Mobile Jelly Bean image that won't brick my phone. I tried searching for one, but I couldn't find anything or I found RUUs for outdated versions of HBoot. I am trying to revert back to stock, but I am sorta scared to do so with an outdated RUU. I have HBoot version 2.15 and Radio version 1.13.50.05.31. Thanks in advance.
Would this be the RUU I have to download? http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...531-10305008l-release-309489-signed-ics-2exe/
I would just prefer a nandroid backup of the stock image that I can just flash with CWM.
I downloaded the RUU, I just need to know if that is the correct one for my phone before I use it. I really don't want a bricked phone. I checked the MD5sum already and it matches, that is the only thing holding me back.

I have ran that RUU with the same hboot and radio as you. Why do you think it would brick your phone? you haven't supercid and have locked your bootloader right?
(didn't download from that site though)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094414
Okay, thank you for the reassurance. I just am pretty paranoid about bricking my phone. I have been looking up how to use RUUs for the last day or so, I just couldn't find anything on how to select the right one. Thanks again.
I just checked out your link and I am downloading now. I do not have SuperCID and I will be looking my boot loader.

If you are on TMOB US then it's for you. Furthermore, you can match thr CID of your phone to that in the RUU.exe --> Firmware.zip --> android-info.txt.
You'll have to extract firmware.zip from temporary files when you run RUU without connecting phone.

I ended up using that RUU that was linked earlier in this thread and everything went fine. I just don't have the stock recovery. I guess that isn't that much of a problem though.

The RUU installs the Stock Recovery automatically. You don't have to do anything extra.
You can find stock recovery (if you want to keep it for any purpose) inside the RUU (extraction would require you to run the RUU and then extract the recovery from Temporary Files)
OR
you can find it in the forums.
Hmmm, that's strange. Oh well I guess. When I tried to go into the recovery it just showed a red exclamation mark with a phone under it. I don't really need a recovery right now. Thanks for letting me know where I can find it.

I believe that is the stock recovery. The red exclamation mark is telling you that you don't have access to it. Perfectly normal.

Yes, I think it will give you an error with that cid. Someone could correct me, but with s-off you can run whatever ruu you want.

So I should be able to run the RUU with lower boot like mine and it will upgrade the boot to 2.15 -
Is it true that with 2.15 hboot, modifying the CID is not allowed ?
Any reason why I should stay with 1.13 HBOOT and not go to 2.15 Hboot? Meaning any disadvantages of upgrading to HBOOT 2.15 ?
Well, say you updated your phone via ota & your cid is European or something. And all of the ruus for that CID are lower hboots. If u are s-on and and needed to ruu you wouldn't be able to.
But there is a guide to run a ota.zip for those people, so it isn't hopeless.
So not too many disadvantages.
In fact I just installed the newest Rom and firmware today. So my hboot is 2.16.
And the gossip is that update will be officially put out by HTC in a few weeks.

Remember this.
if you want to go stock again in future (warranty purpose)
some providers have only provided an ota (only ruu with lower hboots) when upgrading to jb. So downgrading gets hard
It's not that easy to flash an ota as is a ruu.
If your s-off downgrading is no issue.

I gather i need to set up superCID and then set to s-off - would anyone be able to point me in the right direction on how to do these correctly for a Telstra phone?
My phone is rooted with CWM, from whati gather (it says "ClockworkMod recovery" in recovery mode).

You might already have SuperCID, you can use a fastboot command to check. The command is:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
If it comes back as anything other than 11111111 you can use this method to get SuperCID.
Once you have SuperCID you can use this method to get s-off.

The 22222222 CID only applies to at&t phones trying to unlock their bootloader via htcdev, this is because at&t stock CID (cws__001) plus 11111111 CID have been blocked at htcdev. For your purposes 11111111 will be fine.

No problems, did you use the fastboot command the check your CID? I only ask because there are apps available which claim to display your CID but they show the original CID, not the current one.

I tried so many things last night i couldn't tell you exactly what i did, haha! Will try your way and see what it says.
A quick question - in regard to the facepalm link, it says "Download patcher and unzip it in your working directory" - can this be any folder on my phone (eg: Downloads)? I'm also guessing the other file (OneX.zip) goes in the same directory?
No you place the extracted patcher files and the PJ8312000-OneX.zip into your fastboot folder on your pc.
You need to have adb/fastboot and HTC drivers installed on your pc to do the s-off process.

You should keep better track of things you are doing or you will end like NASA on Apollo 1 and not knowing what went wrong.
To repair something you need to know what you did to break it.

Would i be right in saying the instructions for updating the kernel would be the same as at the following link:

Thanks again for your help.
The first link is incorrect, you can find the Beastmode kernel in our development section. The kernel you just install in recovery.
The last link you quoted is where you'll find the 2.15 firmware, and the install instructions see in the first post on that thread (it's a manual install using fastboot).

Thanks - looks easy enough. Can i ask what why i would install Beastmode instead of the firmware upgrade? From what i gather, it is to overclock the CPU?
You can leave the Beastmode settings stock, it's just an easier and safer fix rather than upgrading firmware. You can OC if you wish to of course. There's always a small risk involved with anything that touches your hboot.

I've been trying to acquire S-off, and seeing that I have hboot 2.15, it seems as though I can only moonshine (according to all the threads I've read)
My phone had a CID of Globa001, but I've been told that anything from Canada can be flashed as an ruu, so I flashed Telus001, which is supported by moonshine. Not much surprise but it didn't work.
However, I also flashed Globalive's zip and that itself didn't work either... I got a 12 signature fail.
Is there anything else I can try to achieve s-off? Or will I be stuck as s-on forever...

However, I also flashed Globalive's zip and that itself didn't work either... I got a 12 signature fail.
Is there anything else I can try to achieve s-off? Or will I be stuck as s-on forever...

Rum runner did the trick. It's almost a one click process.
I also made a site for rooting. It's in my signature if you want more info

I just finished running rumrunner successfully and now have S-OFF, finally! What's my next step to restore my device to stock? CID is : GLOBA001

Why do you want to restore your Cid? I haven't really looked that up :/

I want to restore my phone back to stock. I mentioned my CID because that's why you require to select your RUU right? I'm unable to find the RUU for this particular CID so I thought I'd mention it anyway.
I did read up supercid and how it lets you flash any ruu, how can that be done?
Thanks in advance!

I believe you just go through the same procedure with global Cid but you can pick any ruu. Just find the one for globalive (it's an old one) and follow instructions on xda. Again I don't have too much info on this so I can't help much :/

Hey guys,
im pretty done at the moment.
I'm trying to get back to stock on my HTC Sensation and already spent like 3 hours to get it.
So, my current infos:
unlocked
s-on
hboot 1.27
ARHD custom rom
ext4 custom recovery
So, i downloaded equals roms from here: http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Pyramid (equals with the ARHD rom, i already tried others, but it still fails)
but i dont know what to do now.
When i relock bootloaded it fails, when im on ROM the itself it fails.
What should i do actually? i followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1672425
But i dont get it - do i really need s-off to go back to stock?
Isnt there an easier way to do it? im pretty done at the moment and simply want to have it stock, help me guys...
// PS my CID is this: VODAP102 and i already tried to run this: RUU-Pyramid-ICS-Vodafone-DE-3.32.162.11-R-Radio-11.69A.3504.00U-11.23.3504.07-M2-release-251539-signed but it says wrong image... i will throw this thing on the wall soon

if your firmware is higher then the one which is in the ruu.exe then you can't downgrade while on S-ON
you need to S-OFF for downgrade
AFAIK with your cid there is no ruu.exe with the same firmware as yours or higher
what about if you try create a goldcard first..then you can flashing different RUU that are already had a higher firmware version than yours..?, like this RUU maybe..or else that are already had 3.33.xxx.xx firmware?
don't forget to relock your bootloader first too..
You could also attempt to downgrade your misc partition that would allow you to flash a lower RUU as long as the hboot inside was not a gingerbread downgrade I think.
