Hello everybody,
I have an htc butterfly from europe (EU verssion of the X920E).
I have unlock it with htc dev and instal TWRP recovery.
After a back up of my rom, i instaled the NOS M7 rom to have sense 5, but now, the official OTA is aible and i want to return to my original rom.
So i try to restore my back up but the phone work verry bad! no camera, no wifi and it bug some second after the boot...
I have restored it with the twrp recovery and i think that the proble is that twrp don't flash the boot.img and the boot.img that the NOS M7 can't work with original rom...
So how can i do to return to my original rom?
Thanks for your help
You have to flash boot.img separate try to locate in the backup.zip and flash after install backup

thanks for your reply but i have no zip file from my back up,
twrp makes a folder with the date of my back up and in the folder the files:
boot.emmc.win (16mb)
boot.emmc.win.md5
data.ext4.win (20mb)
data.ext4.win.md5
system.ext4.win (1161mb)
system.ext4.win.md5
so i have no boot.img to flash my boot partition...
here is the boot.img and the stock recovery.img from my x920e eu version JB4.1.1 (1.21)
without stock recovery you can't complete OTA
Boot.img
Recovery.img
thanks a lot! So i restore my back up with twrp and after i flash my boot.img and the phtone will work? i can flash the OTA with twrp to don't flash the recovery?

why not just install one of the many 2.3.5 roms?

You could try a ruu, after that your back to full stock (s-on included) or you run the ruu without attached device, don't close the first window and search for the rom.zip file, copy the zip to another folder, open the zip, remove everything except the recovery.img rename the zip to PG88IMG.zip and flash it within the bootloader or flash the image itself with fastboot.
But btw, i'm not sure if you need stock recovery for the ota update.

Using cwm recovery I didn't manage to install the ota update....You are awesome I did it!

Hi guys,
So I unlocked my boot loader and using twrp installed cm10. To boot it I had to flash boot.IMG from the zip file and everything works fine
Now I wanna revert to the stock ROM. I made a backup of it using twrp. So when I wipe off the cm10 rom using twrp n restore my stock backed up ROM, my phone doesn't boot. Just a blank screen.
Anything I need to do different?

You have to flash the boot.img from the sence rom
Thanks a lot for ur help. I don't know where to get the boot.IMG of the sense ROM. Any directions as to where can I find it?

Extract it from the nandroid backup
These r the files in the twrp folder for my Stock ROM. Can't see a boot.IMG
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
sorry maybe twrp doesn't backup boot.img
You can download a 2.20 ruu and try an extract boot.img from there.
boot.emmc.win is the boot.img, not sure how TWRP handles backing up of boot when on the higher hboot though.

The very 1st file "boot.emmc.win" that's the boot.img
So just flash that through fastboot and it should work
You can change the name of the file to boot.img if you want
And if we want to revert to an RUU, we just lock the bootloader and run the exe
Or do we need to flash the stock recovery first?
Cheers
Yes, lock bootloader flash ruu.

Looking for help here. I have a butterfly X920d.
I received an update for 1.19.707.1 yesterday and I updated it. The problem is I have TWRP installed.
So now when the main update package (1.19.707.2) is downloaded and reboots to continue installation, it always reboots into TWRP instead of installing it.
I have tried to flash 1.12.707.1 RUU but it always end up in error 43 (FAILED (remote: 43 main version check fail), upon research tells me that it is incompatible with the 1.19.707.1 I have recently updated.
To perform the above action, I locked the bootloader, which introduce a new problem. When the 1.19.707.2 reboots to install, it is stuck at the HBoot/Fastboot screen. It remain there until I manually reboot it.
In a summary;
In 1.12.707.1, installed TWRP and rooted
Got an OTA update for 1.19.707.1, download and run it, while rooted
1.19.707.1 installed properly
Phone begins to download and install 1.19.707.2
Upon restart to complete, installation stuck in TWRP screen
Relocked phone and tries to flash 1.12.707.1 RUU to return to stock
Error 43 (FAILED (remote: 43 main version check fail) in fastboot RUU flash
Restarted process 4, but now instead of booting to TWRP, it is stuck in Fastboot
I'm thinking, as the update process does not support TWRP recovery, it is stuck in 1.19.707.1
As I have locked the bootloader, TWRP is unable to start. Would unlocking it again via unlock.bin softbrick my phone?
Is there any help or guide to help me get out of this spiral of misery?
Thank you in advance.
Edit: is there anyway to flash just the stock recovery to replace twrp instead of the whole RUU?

@Bassie39, should I use recovery from 1.12 or 1.19?
Thanks
Depends on which version your are running now

It is strange that 1.19.707.1 did not overwrite my TWRP recovery during the initial upgrade.
It is strange but you can try to flash recovery yourself

Woah, took the dive, went in and emerged successfully.
Thanks to the advice from @Bassie39, I reflash my recovery from 1.19.707.1 (link) [Please read the instructions to get the correct files.]
I had to unlock my device before flashing the recovery due to relocking it earlier. Same old story, all of the data was wiped.
Summary of my steps.
Flash stock recovery.img, extracted from 1.19.707.1 RUU
Reboot phone
1.19.707.2 installed succesfully from OTA
2.33.707.3 updated as well upon reboot
Reflash TWRP 2.6
Root using busybox
SuperSU not working in 4.2.2 (probably leftovers from the previous root)
Downloaded SuperSU and flashed in recovery
Root and Titanium backup working finally
Those who are having the same issue, you need not relock your device. Just flash stock recovery, and the OTA is good to go.
After that, flash TWRP and root if you like.
Relock is indeed not necessarily only stock boot.img and recovery.img

Got the impression that lock was required for flashing stock recovery from other forums.
With my dlxu it works fine stock ota runs oke and bootloader still open

I'm presently having issues to update to 3.15.707.4 as well. I'm trying recovery-1.12.707.1
Edit: Recovery failed.
I renamed built.prop and then tried to reboot my phone, but im stuck im bootloop.
Is there a way to flash the correct built.prop file back ?
First of all, why to rename build.prop? Then, just restore any nandroid backup you may have. If you dont then reflash your rom.
If you have a custom recovery you can make a flashable zip that allow you to restore your original build.prop. If not check if there's a recovery tool for your phone, if your phone is MTK you can use SP flash tool. :good:
I have stock recovery, but there is a option to flash zip from sd card.
Yes in stock recovery there's an option to flash a zip but you can't flash a custom zip, only an official zip

Ok, i will try to flash custom recovery.
Thank you for your answer.
Yes but remember that also if you flash the custom recovery you need your original build.prop
