I have found the thread for 1.18, but have not been able to find the list of compatible regions with the:
RUU_PROTO_U_ICS_40A_HTC_Europe_1.14.401.1_Radio_10.18.40.05U_1.09.45.201_release_284072_signed.exe
RUU. Thank you in advance.
That RUU is for a pre-updated device. If you have installed the update, you won't be able to use that RUU.

I'm still definitely on 1.14. My question is whether I can use this RUU, or whether I should just use the 1.18 RUU directly (since I am 01_WWE, so compatible with the 1.18 for sure).
Thanks.

I suggest using the 1.18 RUU. You shouldn't have any problems with it.

I actually made a compatibility thread for 1.18.401 RUU, and it's the same for 1.14.401 all you needed is to search. Check in the Index I made, the link is in my signature, there you have the link to the previous thread I mentioned.

Yes, I did find the index (several times in my search) yet the problem remains that I wasn't sure if I could apply the 1.18.401 RUU directly, even if I was currently on 1.14.xxx, and nowhere did it mention it (even though it does make sense, but I'd rather be sure, as most other people too, I'd think).

401 is the region code so if it's the same compatibility is the same. And i don't get your obsession on 1.14 cause when you install it your phone will immediately ask you to update your phone to 1.18, plus if you have already updated your phone to1.18 you most probably won't be able to run 1.14 RUU.

Since I can't figure it out anymore, what is the correct answer, I will make the question...
Have you been able to downgrade your NON ROOTED Hero from official 2.1 to 1.5?
YES or NO???? In case you're answer was YES, tell us how you did it.
I downloaded the RUU from HTC and installed it as always.. If your phone looses connection after rebooting to bootloader, you will have to reinstall the "My HTC"-driver from Device manager..
BTW. shouldn't this be in Q&A section?

What should be the problem about that?
It took 1,5 minutes to reinstall some certificates/signatures, but then it just installed as always
No, you have to use the goldcard method. But yeah, then you can downgrade official 2.1 to official 1.5 and root again.

I didn't check without but you might as well be right, I thought HTC wouldn't make it that easy... Especially since all xda members warn us that if you install the update you'd never be able to root again. So wrong.
I've tried to downgrade from Chungwa official 2.1 rom, back to official WWE 2.73 and it didn't work even with the goldcard, it gave and ID error. Do you think the goldcard procedure hasn't been done correctly?

But they cannot lock you out, as they haven't made a new RUU.. So you will have to be able to reinstall the original software to update
Not sure what you have flashed, but a few people have come over to villainrom looking for help.
They definately ended up with a locked bootloader and even the goldcard method was not going to help.
Don't say you were not warned well in advanced, been threads saying do not officially update for months now.
Just download official 1.5 RUU from HTC website and install. Goldcard isn't necessary.

Edit 3: Well more news. I have found that it's a problem with OTA and the new base with ICS builds. Seems like the cpu settings aren't wanting to stick at all. It's min/max is set at 100%. Disabling Perflock with Antutu and Setcpu seem to not be working as well. I saw on a different forum that someone else was having this same problem and was suggested to flash BAMF's new sense boot img. This unfortunately did nothing. Am and two other people only having this issue? If so, man i'm unlucky
So I ran the OTA from Con247's thread here And now I am having crazy issues:
Code:
1) Battery is overheating like crazy. Staying at 114F consistently
2) Had the "Dead Battery + CWM" issue like seen [URL="forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1489687"]here[/URL]
Now I have resolved the second issue, pain in the ass but solved. I was wondering if anyone had any advice for the first problem? Or if running an older RUU I'm thinking RUU_Vigor_VERIZON_WWE_1.02.605.6_Radio_RS_0.95.00.1013r_3161E_9K_NV_8k_1.12_9k_1.83_V_APT_release_221502_signed.exe
Any issues with going back? Is it even possible? This is a good arguement for having S-off so I can flash whatever I want. Thanks for the help!
Edit1: After further testing I have found that I can run GB with the battery hovering around 88F-92F while doing nothing and about 94F-96F while syncing. (Just flashed CleanROM GBE 1.7.5 for testing) Stock (from RUU) is running cool at 82F-86F
Edit2: Can anyone also give me some insight to normal battery temperatures? OC, stock, Heavy Use w/4g, Heavy Use Wifi, Screenoff... ect.)
My experience was similar. I think something in the OTA kernel is eating battery and causing heat. When I used that same process it didn't work quite right for me. I ended up RUUing to the latest official build and that helped some. Con's process does update your boot loader though and the old RUU will see that and fail. Your mainver should be updated too... So that can cause problems going back too.
I went to an ICS from and that helped my overheat issue some. I recommend the RUU and checking out one of those . You should see some improvement.

So run the acutal RUU? The latest or an older version?
If you took the OTA, you have to run the latest RUU. 2.01.xxx.xx.
So it seems that running the older RUU wouldn't work because it detects your version and will tell you that you have a newer version.
There's a new tool from drellisdee that will change your mainver using a script.
HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526316
So... I think you can use that and put yourself back to 1.x and run the 1.x RUU. You might want to check in that thread though. Also, I don't know for sure that it will revert your hboot and radios and such by running the older RUU or not. Worth a try though.
I also think I've read something about being able to revert the radios back to the original ones, not sure where that was though, and may have just been a post of someone else who thought it was possible.
Yeah good idea, I was thinking that too. I unfortunately cannot find an older RUU that isn't uploaded to FileFactory. Man that place is the worst. So what if every other uploader has shutdown in fear of persecution. And because of that they're severely overloaded. I need my RUU's dammit.
Can anyone also give me some insight to normal battery temperatures? OC, stock, Heavy Use w/4g, Heavy Use Wifi, Screenoff... ect.)
I mis spoke above... When I used Con's manual method it updated my HBOOT (not bootloader) which caused the 1. RUU to fail (I was using an older method to rewrite my mainver to 1.000.00.000, or whatever).
I used the newest official RUU which I found on football's sticky'd post in the dev section. If that's missing now let me know and I can hook you up the flash able RUU file.
As for norms, there a a few threads on the topic, but I usually max out at like 125 when playing games or surfing on 3G 4G. That's too hot IMO, but I saw 140 once playing GTA when I was in the same place you are now.

Don't know what to tell you. You can't run the older RUU even if you set your main version back. It will see the newer hboot and fail.
I did not change anything from the OTA update package. I just added root and turned it into a flashable rom. Any problems that you have are likely due the new radios or the new OTA rom itself. Alot of people have had back luck with the OTA rom and new radios/firmware. That is HTC's fault. All I did was simplify the install for rooted users.

Also-- coming from the 3D forums have really made me post apologies just to make sure nothing is taken the wrong way. I don't want to piss anyone off and have them not participate anymore. Effin haters are driving devs from our forums..
i am having the same problem with new new radios and firmware. nothing i have tried has given me the good battery life and low temps i had before the new radios. i really want s-off or someway of flashing the old radios. i was even wondering if ou could add the radio from the old ota to the new leak ruu and trick it into flashing the old radios but i doubt that would work.
Try using Scotts super wipe tool and re flashing the ROM. That's what helped me, I think my manual wipes kept missing things and freaking my phone out. Also reinstall everything from the market, my experience with restoring backup apps on a new rom has caused problems. Anyway these are all just suggestions that have helped me! Good luck!
Edit: since doing the above steps my Rezound hardly ever goes above 100 unless I'm tethering on 4g. And my battery life is good enough to get me through the day on the stock battery

Newer compared to what? The only RUU I'm aware of that was circulated was the upgrade to 4.13.651.3, which this one does as well.
FW: 4.13.651.3
Radio: 1.13.11.1105
PRI: 3.02_003
PRL: 25007 (my phone is 25017)
Release: 353492
That "Official" link you have is the 3.17.651.4 firmware, which is old layout from a while back. The "Newer" one is the 4.13.651.3. It's not really "officially" released AFAIK. Might want to clean up those links so people don't try to download the "Official" RUU and end up downgrading.

Is that correct, and is this the most up to date version, because I noticed it doesn't match the version in your signature?
That's not the newest radios, and no, they are not flashed through recovery. They are flashed through the bootloader. If you aren't planning on updating to Android 4.3, however, those are the newest and will work fine. For more info, click the top link in my sig and read the section regarding firmware updates.

You are right, I forgot you do flash them in the boot loader. My question now is that I'm currently on 4.1.1 but may in the future update to 4.3. As a result, can you point me specifically to the file that I need to flash in the boot loader. Is the file I need to flash in the boot loader called 4.13.651.4 Sense 5 Android 4.3 - Odex or is it something else. Sorry for asking such stupid questions, but I'm getting confused.
If you want to update to 4.3 you should run the RUU. That will make sure everything gets updated. The RUU will also change how the internal storage is set up. In that same link I mentioned above, there is a link to all the applicable RUU's for this device.

Thanks for the information. I decided to simply use the older radio link that I linked you that you said is the most up to date version if I'm not switching over to 4.3. I'm planning on getting a new phone soon, so I didn't want to take the time to switch to 4.3 right now. I already flashed the radios and everything looks to be working fine. Thanks for your help.

Glad to help:good:
I have an M8 from AT&T, unlocked bootloader, rooted, and S-Off. Phone is running 4.4.3... the 2.23 sense, I got the update right before they pulled it. I want to go to newer roms,but they all use the 3.28 update, and AT&T hasn't gotten the update yet, but i'm having some major withdraws. I was just asking how to I go about updating? I saw a few posts but I am beyond confused.

Wonders_Never_Cease makes it easy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365
Here I go again with an alternative that may be easier.
Being S-OFF is a plus but no mention of Supercid.
Below is super simple and requires the use of your external sdcard

If someone can't handle fastboot commands, they should be flashing firmware at all.
It should be understood that flashing firmware is one of the riskier mods to do; and not to be taken lightly. Unlike flashing a ROM, root, etc., you can actually brick the phone flashing firmware, if you don't fully understand what you are doing.

No need to quote me as I've agreed with you over and over about this very subject in multiple threads my friend. I can remember being new to all this and how intimidating anything to do with adb/fastboot or even the word commands would make me feel.we seem to end up following each other around quit a bit so let's not make it personal man as it do respect you.

The easiest way to upgrade the firmware is to get supercid and run the 3.28.1540.5 dev ed RUU. Worked like a charm for my AT&T m8
Supercid is not needed, BS_US001 or BS_US002 works fine

Will supercid work as well?

Supercid will work for all cids. It's easier, Bc then you don't have to worry about changing it all the time to do different things. As wonders_never_cease mentioned, it's not necessary, however.
@mattprice86
Thank you for the answer ,I don't recall it mentioned that Supercid would work.
I figure why change it to a specific Cid if I can change it once

I am free to respond or quote others if I choose to (as are you). I was just raising a point, that IMO firmware (as I already explicitly mentioned) is not something to be taken lightly, and not something that should be made "easier". But just my opinion (and no more or less valid an opinion than yours).
There is nothing "personal" in my post directed toward you. Not a single thing that could be construed as a personal attack, insult, disrespectful, etc. If you took it that way, its your own interpretation.
There aren't all that many folks in the AT&T specific forum section willing to contribute help on a consistent basis, as you likely already noticed. The fact that I have responded to you on multiple occasions is merely a matter if that circumstance (just coincidence, really). Believe it or not, I'm not stalking you or anything. I would have responded/quoted you the same way regardless of whether I recognized your nickname or not.
Your contribution is certainly appreciated. I was just throwing in my 2 cents.
