Hi all
I have a Zune backup of my Mozart updated to mango beta2 with ansar U2M7720_V1.2 tool. Then I installed HSP/RSPL (flashed a stock rom first) and flashed to try the last feropont rom. Now my problem is that I want to restore my saved zune backup to copy some sms I need, but zune after preparing the restore and put my device in recover mode, reset the device without restore anything and return an error message (can't restore backup error code etc..) Do I need to restore the original spl (same number) to restore my backup or what? Any hint?
Thanks in advance

Nothing? Pheraps this is not the right section to ask this kind of question?
Greetings,
What version is your bootloader?
You should be able to restore a Zune backup without downgrading the bootloader first. At least, I personally was able to restore to NoDo (7392) from Mango (7720) using my Zune backup, and even coming from Mango with 5.XX bootloader!

Now my bootloader is 1.30, but i flashed a 1.30 rom to downgrade my old bootloader to install HSPL/RSPL. I don't remember wich bootloader was first...
hi,
AFAIK the custom HSPL/RSPL is the issue here. same thing happened to me and i've got two backups, none restored.
the full backup apps available here are also incapable of restoring custom ROM backup. they will only restore if you have a stock bootloader.
Hey guys,
I seriously need some help, reverting my international HOX+ back to stock, as I am going to sell it.
My main problem is, that i have an o2 germany one, for that it seems to be impossible to get any suitable RUU
I am able to unlock / relock the bootloader, flash custom or stock recovery, flash any custom rom... not a problem.
But I'm stuck with the order of the steps! When I flash a stock rom (1.17.401.xx), my next step should be flashing stock recovery and then relock bootloader, right? I did so and got a security warning at bootloader and it seems, that there is no rom left on the phone.
How do I trick this, to relock, use stock rec. and stock rom?
Thanks for any help!!!
AW: Need help, going back to stock
you need the correct RUU for O2 brandings
yep. any news, where to get it?
thought, there might be a workaround...
I think there is no ruu atm.
I'll have a look for it.
AW: Need help, going back to stock
That would be very nice!

The only o2 ruu is this one:
http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/sec...Radio_3.1204.167.31_release_289474_signed.exe
Based on your informations, you need a ruu for a german phone.
It doesn't matter that there is "UK" in the name.
The United Kingdoms are in europe, like germany.
Give it a try and tell me if it has worked or not.
If it doesn't work, open your Bootloader and flash an custom recovery/kernel/rom and wait until there's a dumped o2 ruu.

1.Go into the bootloader and make sure your phone is connected to your computer.
2.Relock your bootloader, using the cmd (Windows) or the terminal (Linux).
3.You make it with "fastboot oem lock".
4.Run the "ruu.exe" as administrator and let it work.
5.Drink a coffee and wait until it's done.
AW: Need help, going back to stock
Ok, many thanks for that!
I already tried that ruu, but maybe my fault was, I did not lock the bootloader, before.
Will try that, later this evening and give feedback

You're welcome!
If you got any problems, send me a private message and we try to solve the problem.
AW: Need help, going back to stock
Doesn't work gives me bootloader error. Stops after updating signature...

what about running ruu, extracting rom.zip and flashing this one? ruu could be 1.17.401 for example!?
will this work or result in a brick? is this method still possible on one x series? my evo 3d provided this while using a zip named to pc86img.zip (or very similar :cyclops
edit: if possible, will the phone check cid in the zip?
pretty much same here, except I am on O2 UK, and a higher version than the RUU available so it doesn't work, so frustrating, just want to go back to stock
alternate method would be: flashing a nandroid backup of a stock rom.
problem: don't own one
Is anybody out there, who can provide me a full backup of rom 1.17.207.xx with cid 02___102 o2 germany?
that would save my weekend, guys!
Hi.
I have the same problem but am on o2_UK i cant get back to stock.Doesn't mater whatever RUU i try is the same.
I have 1.17.401.1 cid02__001 and really badly need to go on stock ROM
Any help would be great.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Hello everyone
I hope someone can help me with this.
I have signal issues with my device, htc one x+, and thinking of sending it back as is still under warranty.
I have the revolution firmware on it and want to know how I can effectively set the original firmware on it so that I can then send it back.
Thank you

Depending on your devices bootloader (HBOOT) version and CID, you may be able to use an RUU to get back stock easily. If there's no matching RUU for your phone, you will have to search for stock backups and recovery matching your CID in order to apply stock HTC rom/firmware/recovery.
What is your bootloader version and CID?

I don't know how to find the bootloader.

reboot into bootloader (power off your phone and then press and hold power & volumedown button) there you can see your version number. If i remember right you need version 1.35 or lower to use a RUU, or your phone has to be S-OFF.

download the 1.17.401.1 RUU, it should work on your device. Make sure you backup all your stuff before using it, this will erase everything on your phone!!

Thank you, what information you've used to decide what RUU to use?
is that because 1.17 is the latest version and because they bootloeader and cid I've given you tell you that my phone is european and factory unlocked?
In addition:
I'm aware of a few methods that can be used to backup: Titanium,through adb,clockworld twrp but none of these does a full complete backup.
What's the best way to back up all the date so that all my messages,contacts,apps settings and messages(viber,skype logs and chats) can be restored once I have installed the stock firmware.
Can you also point out a simple guide that shows me how to install the stock firmware?
Thank you

HTC__001 is a so called WWE (world wide edition) cid and i mostly read about people in europe having this, don't know what country exactly. and RUU is bound to certain cid and we only have those few RUUs for this device, so if someone does not have a matching cid for those RUUs you aren't able to use them. Also (as you've seen) your phone's bootloader is S-ON (Security-ON) like most people here have it, which means we're not allowed to do everything with our phones, for example we can't flash boot.img in recovery and we can't downgrade our bootloader version. This is the reason why i needed to know your bootloader version because the latest RUU we have is this 1.17.401.1 which includes bootloader 1.35 if i remember right. So if you had version 1.40 you wouldn't be able to use it because you can't downgrade bootloader version.
As for backup: I use titanium backup for all my user apps and app data (settings, savegames, chats, ...) and SMS Backup & Restore for sms backup.
But you also will need root to restore those backups.
To use the RUU, simply connect your phone to your computer and execute it. It should guide you to the process.

Thank you for explaining.
So I understand that if there's no a compatible RUU, it will not be possible to downgrade to the stock firmware, does this mean that after using custom rom, if I endup with a higher bootloader, I can't get back to my stock firmware but only change from one custom to another custom rom?
Where do these RUU come from? aren't they supplied by HTC, I mean if someone has a device with stock firmware but want's to flash his/her phone again, how would they do it? (for example in iphones you can get stock firmware for every phone)
Is it there a way to create a RUU when I have a stock firmware so that in case I need to revert back I can use that?
I'm on version 4.1.1 i guess, which i think isn't the latest version, after going stock firmware, if I upgrade, will i get my bootloader upgraded too?
sorry for too many questions

Bootloader version is not rom version, custom roms won't update your bootloader. There's a difference between "firmware" and custom rom. you can update your phones firmware (bootloader etc.) with a cid matching "firmware.zip" from an OTA or RUU or on stock this is done automatically when applying OTA updates that include new versions of those. So if your bootloader version was too high, you can't use the RUU anymore and you have to get back to stock by using a stock TWRP/CWM backup and additionally flash stock recovery and boot.img and then relock your bootloader.
and yes RUUs are made by HTC, but there are no RUUs for latest software updates yet. either they don't exist or they're not leaked...
Your bootloader will probably be updatet to 1.35 if i remember right, but as long as the RUU includes the same version or a higher one, you're able to use it, so you can still use this RUU when used once.
just don't do OTA update to Sense 5/Android 4.2.2 or your bootloader will be upgraded to 1.72 and you won't be able to use any of those ruu again.
I just forgot one thing, I have linux at home, it's not possible to update through linux as it's an exe file.
is it there an alternative?

I'm sry, as far as i know there's no way for RUU on linux. But i think i remember seeing a guide (either here at some xda forum or somewhere else on the internet) with a description on how to extract the stock rom and firmware.zip (which includes stock boot.img and recovery) from a RUU. So you could flash stock rom, boot.img and recovery and then relock bootloader, which should have the same effect. But i think you will need windows here too...
After running the RUU, it asked me to update the image, however it fails and it stays on the HTC black screen.
I've searched around and the way to install the RUU is to run it until the wizard windows open, search the temp folder and and a file in it called rom.zip.
extract the recovery or recovery_signed file from it and use fastboot command on the phone.
However when I try to extract the recovery_signed file, winrar says it's corrupt
how can I solve this or is it there another way to install the stock firmware?
my bad I had to fastboot oem lock
back to stock ,thank you!
is it there anything else I need to do in order to make sure that my phone is in the warranty guideline( i mean softwarewise)
Now I have got the phone fixed hopefully.
The phone details are as [email protected]
HTC ONE X+
android v: 4.2.2
htc sense version: 5.0
software num: 2.18.401.2
htc sdk api level: 5.41
How can I make a full backup of this stock firmware so if I decide to go back after using some custom firmwares, I can do so by restoring it back.
THank you

- unlock bootloader
- install custom recovery (CWM/TWRP)
- nandroid backup (all partitions)
You can restore this any time you need. Don't forget, you have to flash the boot/kernel backup separately in fastboot from your pc, so copy that backup to your computer once you have it.
BUT: if you want to go completely back to stock (relocked bootloader) you also need to flash stock recovery. i don't know how to dump stock recovery... maybe you can find some stock recovery.img for your version number here on xda or via google.

when you say flash boot/kernel separately ,you mean for the custom rom? how do I get the boot/kernel file to flash for my stock firmware?
I used TWRP to do a full backup, is nandroid backup necessary and what's the difference between that and TWRP backup?

nandroid backup = backup in custom recovery.
i mean if you want to restore your stock backup, you also have to flash the stock boot.img/kernel in fastboot because with S-ON phones we're not allowed to flash boot.img/kernel in recovery, hence we can't restore it using recovery restore function.

seems like you have a phone with o2 cid, so your out of luck, there's no ruu that worsk with that version.
but there's a german forum i recently found, where you can find stock backups (including boot.img) and stock recoveries.
http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-cu...04-one-x-plus-ruu-s-fuer-htc-o2-vodafone.html
just put the backup into the right folder on your phone, make sure CWM/TWRP recognizes this backup, then flash stock boot.img in fastboot, restore stock backup in your recovery, flash stock recovery in fastboot and finally relock bootloader.
then your phone should be back to stock software.
thank you so far. another problem is I somewhere I have to delete Superuser and relock my bootloader to flash the stock rom. Thats why I deleted Superuser and locked my bootloader again. My question is now can I still flash to stock rom or do I have unlock bootloader again ?

you probably need to unlock your phone again.
as soon as you restored the stock backup, everything you had on your phone except internal storage will be replaced by stock software, all settings will be reset, all userdata will be wiped!!!
so better backup/copy everything you need to your computer before you restore that backup.
