I just wanted to make sure that I understood the process of returning my phone to stock before I make a mistake.
All I've done since I purchased the phone was root it and unlock the bootloader. I have not loaded any custom roms.
So If I understand this correctly I need to:
1) Flash the Stock Image (which should include the stock recovery?)
2) Use fastboot to lock the bootloader
The reason I'm wanting to return the phone to stock is to receive OTA updates. I never use any apps requiring root, and don't plan on loading any custom roms.
I never did find a 2.3.4 stock image for the I9020A..
you should actually be able to get ota updates no problem. it'll just remove root every time you update.
it's probably not a good idea to lock the bootloader though cause if you ever want to unlock it again in the future you'll have to wipe everything from your phone. your best bet is to just flash stock recovery so you can install the update
i'm pretty sure that works, but hopefully someone else can verify just so you don't get some bad information lol
I heard the same thing about OTA updates. If you're phone is rooted and you're using the original rom, you'll get the update but you'll have to root your phone once again.
I haven't tried this myself so I cannot verify it.
It's just the word on the street, you know!

you need stock everything, so stock kernel, rom, radio, etc... the op should be fine to update if they flash stock recovery though. rooting is simple from there

Thanks kibmcz ! I'm a n00b when it comes to this but when you say flash via ClockworkMod you mean get into clockwork recovery mount the usb, transfer the zip onto the SD card and then <<Install from zip>> ?
Is that the method?

Thanks again kibmcz, so I just completed the flash, then did a fastbook oem lock.
Seems to be working fine except for one thing...
When I go into settings and hit Sound I get a Force close when I try and select a new ringtone...
Should I try reflashing again?

Didn't happen on mine (In fact im using a self rooted rom based on that exact stock zip) try doing a wipe in stock recovery.
after flashing that does it take it back to out of box condition?
reason i ask is because i bought a already rooted and unlocked one here from market place and i want to return it to stock firmware, radio, kernel and such to recieve OTA updates and what not.
your info is greatly appreciated

Using my zip yes... it flashes Bootloader, Radio, Boot, System and on first boot (and any other time recovery changes) Recovery is flashed. All you got to to is lock the bootloader and that wipes user data and usb storage.
hey man i appreciate you coming forward with a solution, ive yet to recieve the phone but wanted to prepare.
my goal is to flash everything back to stock and start completly over whereas i have no clue what method was originally used to root and unlock the bootloader.
when the time comes hope you dont mind a PM if i have any extra questions.

Just did the method using the stock ROM provided by kibmcz "thanks BTW!"
Phone is back to stock, working like it did when I first bought it. Had a little trouble with some Force Close issues but did a factory reset/data clear of the cache and all that before re-flashing, and it seems to be working Vanilla!

I'm not able to post links so I've had to attach the images instead:
I have an HTC One XL - which I believe is from HK (when i reset to default, everything is in Chinese and the time/date is HK)
Since getting it in December, I've not been able to do a single update.
The software update gives me
update.png
after which i get this
fail1.jpg
So I've tried to bypass that and downloaded the OTA 4.1 rom and trying to flash gives me this
fail2.jpg
I also tried to do the RUU install and that failed too.
Any ideas?
I can't see your photos, they are coming up blank for me. But are you completely stock, or do you have custom recovery? Is your bootloader unlocked?
Phone needs to have stock recovery to install OTAs.
Bootloader needs to be LOCKED or RELOCKED to run RUU.

I couldn't get it to work, flashed CM10 and found it buggy, gone back to stock and still no updates.
I've tried to update the hboot by using the JBFWTOOL and nothing happens, tried doing it manually and it fails (failed <remote: 99 unknown fail>

maybe:
- status 7 mean your TWRP or CWM not suitable with rom, need update newest version (happened to me, and after update CWM is ok.)
- make sure you phone unlocked bootloader already.
- your zip file is error during dowload, re-download.

I was under the impression that i needed to remove CWM...
bootloader is unlocked however if i try to open any of the zip files, they are corrupted, but it's the same wherever i download them from.
so should I put cwm back on and try updating again?

If you've unlocked the bootloader you can't do any of that other stuff. You need to fastboot flash a recovery.img. Then flash a ROM from there. Instructions in the Ace Think Tank in the Desire HD General section. Note that the DHD and the I4G are essentially the same phone and have the same rooting instructions, and they can use each others' ROMs.

oh really? I thought i had to first unlock the bootloader to root the phone or is that to jus use a custom rom? i can relock like i did earlier. is that what i need to do? Yes i realize the Desire HD/Inspire 4G same phone. was waiting for ICS and than HTC said too bad.So do you recommend i lock the bootloader back up? I'm new today here. wondering if i posted in right category after i posted. i see a development one to..
There are two ways to root and flash a custom ROM. One is S-Off. The other is unlocking the bootloader. S-off's tool has been retired, so you can only do it manually. You can still root and flash custom ROMs with an unlocked bootloader, though.

I went to this think tank link below like you mentioned and flashed the recovery. i even flashed a XGS Rom from sdcard.phone is booting up or its stuck on the white screen still but it installed.On #6 i got an error but the install went thru.might have to pull battery and restart it i think.this procedure didnt root my phone right? My phone stuck on the white screen.Might have to redo but like the 4ext recovery. Thanks for the great info!

What's an XGS ROM? You're hanging on the boot splash because #6 had an error. Fastboot flashing the ROM zip's boot.img is essential because you are S-On.

Unzip the ROM zip. It'sinside the folders. If the ROM is missing one you need to find a new ROM zip.

I respect existz too much to use a downstream ROM. Yes, my phone is rooted. But all custom ROMs are rooted, so with XGS you probably are rooted as well.

I'll have to check out others avail with my phone. Root checker shows rooted phone. bootloader menu shows S-On still thought it would be S-Off. might run superoneclick root program on it. noticed the music files didnt play. battery drain about the same. Wondering if i can flash a Rom with LTE? unless that is a hardware issue.

Like I said earlier, there are two ways you can root and flash custom ROMs, S-On with unlocked bootloader and S-Off, and you can't have both. If you want S-Off, you would need to relock. And since AAHK (the S-Off tool) is retired, you can only manually S-Off now (which is something I would only recommend for advanced users). Using outdated tools, like AAHK and SuperOneClick, can get you in very bad predicaments very quickly (and I should note that you will probably not find support for those cases). You can look into other ROMs though, and note that the Inspire 4G and the Desire HD are basically the same phone and can use each others' ROMs. Since you are now rooted and can flash custom ROMs through recovery anyway, I would strongly advise that you stick to flashing ROMs now and not try to get S-Off.
LTE is a hardware issue. I4G and DHD don't support it.

When you flash ROMs and/or do anything else with your phone, make sure you read thoroughly. In the case of ROMs, read the OP carefully. It will tell you that you need to flash gapps.

Hi guys, a few day ago my One SV had some problems, rebooting itself and runs very slowly; so i tryed to do something like root it, but not knowing what i'm doing 'cause i don't have much time.
Probably installing a wrong rom, now I'm stuck in the bootloader with S-ON Tampered, Locked, and Security Warning flags.
The phone stuck with htc logo, i only manage to go into bootloader, pdanet gives me sync error, twrp recovery doesn't work anymore.
Is there something I can do now?

As long as your device is Locked, you can't flash a custom recovery.
So unlock your device at htcdev.com, flash Twrp recovery and flash back a working rom.
Use a Android 4.1.2 rom, otherwise you will have problems with noisy sound.

How do you mount the sd?
At least pull it out of your device and put it into your PC and copy needed files in this way.
One thing i could not solve earlier (because of bad internet connection): did you already install the Android 4.2.2 update or what was your software running on your device before? Thats important to give you the right rom for your firmware!

I installed the 4.2.2 versions, seems completed but phone remains with black screen showing only the top bar with the clock, then reboot itself; sometimes after reboot it shows the bottom clock and lock, you can also unlock it, but then it reboots;
One time it shows me the backgroud.
Maybe it's a motherboard problem, what do you think?

As the roms worked for other people, i also start thinking thats something bugged with your device.
You checked md5sum of the roms? Using latest TWRP recovery?

I don't know the name of the tool (i'm at work), but you will find it with google search, i think.
In recovery this is not a problem, its only to check on your pc, if the downloaded file is the same as the upload.

I unlocked it with htcdev, then installed the recovery but this one doesn't work, it says starting recovery but doesn't start..(trying to install a different recovery, it seems unable to rewrite it)
trying to do something i flashed with fastboot the stock boot.img and now the phone doesn't start anymore..
what can i do now? :crying:
Trying to keep this short but i seem to have messed up. I was trying to get back to stock with this phone so i've been trying to use the RUU to flash back to stock. I keep getting the 22 RU_HEADER_ERROR when i try the RUU sd card method but i read on here that you may need S off to make it work. I was in the process of flashing a custom rom (Bad Boyz rom) just so i can be rooted so that sunshine would work but system won't mount. Looking for options before i mess more stuff up

If you flash a RUU that matches your cid/mid you don't need s-off. At least when you upgrade your OS Version and not downgrade.
A "fastboot getvar all" will help us to provide you a correct RUU version, if there is one.
About the system not mouning:
you most likely checked in twrp to mount system as readonly.
TWRP-MOUNT: Uncheck "Mount system read only"
I have the correct version but i keep getting the above error.
Also i did uncheck read only for mount system. I think i may have messed up something when i relocked the bootloader with custom rom and recovery then unlocked it again. I must have messed up something then. The ruu seems the only option. I'm trying to flash the same one i have installed which is the 1.28.617.6 on the spread sheet for the us phone but keep getting the error. You said i need s off to downgrade but not to upgrade. So do i have to wait for newer software?
Seems more like it you have a bad download. Did you check the md5 of your download?
Yep, bad download.
Also, why do people re-lock the bootloader? I don't see any gain from doing this.

agree, unlocked bootloader breaks safety net. So if you decide to return back to stock/non rooted you would need to relock to be able to pass Safety Net again.
That would be the only reason for me.

Sorry been away. Yes i checked it, downloaded it more than once to be sure and checked it in cmd. Now to be sure on the HTC U11 google doc spreedsheet, the RUU (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...EYtQ_tRcOSJ0vWcvk8a7TK8Hk/edit#gid=2137120377) is the recovery option at the bottom right? Thats what i been downloading, at this point i could be messing something up
