I am currently running ICS firmware/radio/hboot with CleanRom 4.5 and CWM Recovery. I am S-OFF and need to send my phone back (AGAIN!) due to the proximity sensor not working properly. I've looked around and believe all I need to do is run the GB RUU and I will be back to out of the box stock.
Is that accurate? Will the RUU change my firmware/radio/hboot, and remove the custom recovery? I know I need to follow the steps to S-ON at some point, but when?
Thank you all in advance for your help and have a blessed day!
Run the ruu once or twice. Exe version is greatly preffered in this case. Then S-ON the phone and you will be good to go.

You may be able to. I always run the RUU's on my PC. It is much easier and newb friendly, which is exactly what I need!

My mistake then... I could have sworn someone said you needed s-off for this to work. I guess not if you're using it.
Yea its really nice! S-off would help to be able to have different kernels as I am limited to the same kernel on both as I can't change those in recovery, and I am very jealous of your s-off rezound!

Ya, I was wondering how that was going to work. To bad they couldn't incorporate con's flash recovery helper into it and then flash the nandroid backup.

damn. we're pretty much SOL to switch between kernels then until S-OFF is achieved fully
not looking too good. I tried the lite version for now. original rom is CR dev edition and tried installing bamf on slot one since kernels have to be exact. it was nearly completed until the boot.img part of the install failed and stopped the entire install

Zips that flash boot images and zImages are attached. Just put the boot image or zImage in the kernel folder inside the zip and flash.

No this in not the S-off method. This is just something you are able to use once you gain s-off. Check the general section for the s-off method.

What exactly are these? what do they do? edit:nevermind, i figured it out
Is this to replace the HTC image?
You can drop a boot image into it and it will flash it via recovery. It is more of a template/reference for rom/kernel devs now that we have S-OFF. However, it can work for the end user if you put your boot image inside it.
Hey Con,
I'm running stock GB. What command would I use to make a copy of my boot.img in case I Bork my s-off attempt?
Thanks in advance.
Edit...Never mind I got a copy from scottsroms.com
I used to be a developer like you. Then I took an arrow in the knee...
Hi I want the 3.14.605.5 ruu , the bare stock. not the rooted one.
I have searched for hours and downloaded over 10 different ones and all of them stop before they finish all the links are old and i am about to smash my computer.
Please provide me with a reliable link.
Thanks !

I do recommend those too if you are ultimately trying to move to a custom ROM, that method saves some time if you know what you're doing and are a flashaholic with S-off lol.

Hey just wanted everyone to know where they could find the stock RUU for the rezound. I've been searching for a week now and finally found a good link. This is not the global RUU. This is the one that use to be on android police but was taken down when htc started cracking down on everything. Hope this helps someone and hopefully the mods dont take this down but if they do sorry for posting.

I gave you that link in your other thread, if that's what you mean by you "finally found" it.
I read in a post in the Q&A that someone just downloaded the global RYUU from Android Police and I just clicked through to be sure before coming back to report here and at least one of the mirrors is working now. They seem to have re-allowed the downloads once it was made clear that HTC was just concerned about that one site that had their logo and name on it.
Well Damn. That's my mistake lol. I used the zip you have me but I never clicked the other link bc you said it was the global ruu and I already had that one. In any case thanks a lot just a misread on my part

So, I've been stuck for 2 weeks at this point now and decided now is the time to ask for help since I've run out of ideas. :/ 2 weeks ago my rooted HTC Thunderbolt had finally been forced to update, I was too lazy at the time to block the update properly with the root tools. But back to the main topic, it forced the update and was done incorrectly. I reverted back to a previous backup and rom due to the issue. Now comes the biggest thing that screwed me. I figured why be rooted anymore? Just go to stock and be al fine and dandy and call it a day. No, of course it's not that simple, nothing ever is. In the middle of the unrooting with Revolutionary my computer crashed on me! So my phone had been left unrooted but without the installation of the firmware. Now when it boots, it's "**LOCKED**" and "**S-OFF**" So I can't force it to install any roms of any sort to reattempt everything. So basically I'm not able to boot beyond fastboot/hboot. Is there any possible way around it? I really can't afford to buy a replacement right now. I'm starting school again in a matter of days and need every dollar just to buy my books for this semester. Please somebody save me :[

It didn't work. At the end of its attempt it said, "Update Fail! Main Version is older!" So do I need to just find the original RUU?

That sucks. That means your hboot isn't going to allow you to downgrade. Can you run HTCdev bootloader unlock or the revolutionary tool and try the Ruu again? If not you could try finding the ics pg05img Santod posted a long time ago. That's the only thing I can think of off the top of my head that might work.
