Hello all, I've been searching for the past 2 and a half days to no avail.
I'm after the Vodafone UK 1.17 RUU.exe file; I've fubar'd my phone and can't flash the stock rom to start again. I've managed to re-lock the bootloader, but I cannot ADB into the phone to transfer a rom etc so need to start back as stock and cannot for the life of me find the Vodafone UK 1.17 RUU.exe file.
Anyone offer any help?
:good:

Just to clarify, I was unable to ADB or access the phone before re-locking the bootloader so got it re-locked in preparation of running the RUU.
http://d-h.st/Sp2 tryy that and remember to post the end results
It does state 1.14, but I'll give it a go and let you know!
only one I could find mate.... hopefully it will work If you could let us know that would be useful to know just in case I get in a mess sometime in the future
It's given the error of incorrect bootloader (HBOOT I think it means). Updating my phone to 1.17 changed the bootloader to 1.40 so I need the 1.17 RUU. Really appreciate your help though, and from a fellow Nottingham citizen too!
I had already tried the 1.14 RUU and that hadn't worked. Just need to wait on someone to release the 1.17 or higher for my CID. I'm ok in the meantime as I've bought myself an Xperia Z, so the One x+ will be sold as soon as it's working
First off I know sounds daft but.... you did relock the bootloader? if not is there a file somewhere with the old hboot you could flash?
And more strangely I had a xperia z until I swapped it for the hox+ lol Would love to know why you like the xperia better?
EDIT - do you need stock recovery installed also???
EDIT EDIT - what about this file? http://androidfiles.org/ruu/securekey.php?file=ENRC2B/RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.1_Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299688_signed.exe
Oh and lastly the other freaky thing was the guy I swapped my xperia with was called Adam lol only he was from derby
Yeah I re-locked the bootloader before trying the RUU; even tried it with an unlocked bootloader. The fact I can re-lock and unlock the bootloader gives me hope that the phone isn't completely unrepairable.
The link you've provided has a different CID number to what's installed so it probably won't work, but I'll try anything at this point so thank you again
I like the screen size (big hands) and I find it runs alot more smooth than my one x+. The only downside so far is the battery life, whilst it's not bad I do feel I could squeeze an extra hour or two out of the HOX+.
Re the swapping of the phones, funny how coincidences happen from time to time!
EDIT - I've got it as much stock I can without the RUU, and I think it is stock recovery as the RUU only fails as the HBOOT version being higher than the version that's trying to be installed - thus not completing the install. Also, I don't think we can downgrade the HBOOT until we get S-Off.
i know this going to sound silly but why did you need to return to stock anyway? Could you not sideload a rom onto it with twpr ? I've been testing sideloading on cwm but it dont seem to work :crying: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995002
Its worth a try no?
My friends kid accidentally formatted the whole phone when playing with it. Don't ask lol
I tried side loading a Rom but couldn't get it to work, so tried everything before relocking the bootloader in hope there's an RUU released.

Can also push the rom to the phone with adb while in recovery mode using the 'adb push rom.zip /data/media/' command

I didnt try sideloading but pushing a file would do the trick.
could you not downgrade your hboot with this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1995685
Finally got the phone back from the dead!
Turns out I needed to reboot my laptop at each new command; i.e. adb command > reboot > adb command > reboot etc etc
Thanks for your help, if I find the 1.17 RUU I'll post it here

Probably your SDK tool is incorrectly installed and / or the HTC's drivers. It's very simple to install have a look at this tutorial.

Hi guys,
I turned my flyer on today and had a prompt to complete a software update, roughly 4.5 mb so I assume it's to do with HTC's security update that is rolling out.
However when the device restarts to install the update, all I see on screen is the yellow triangle and a blue android...
I've left it like this for 20 minutes and nothing actually happens with the update, nor do any of the hard buttons work ect
I unlocked the bootloader a while ago via one of the methods in the Dev forums but haven't really used the flyer since, so I assume it's down to the bootloader being unlocked?
What I want to know is, how to I restore the Flyer to TOTAL stock, ie bootloader, ROM, EVERYTHING.
I've had a look around and haven't managed to find anything, so I hope someone can help
thanks!
Same problem the last security updade dont work with rooted flyer
please help us
I've seen that if you remove htcloggers.apk from /system/app with root explorer or something, but this doesn't seem to have got me anywhere!
To restore use the ruu for you model and software version. There are a lot of guides on how to do it all and to relock your bootloader. You just boot into fastboot and run adb. And type fastboot oemlock and that will relock the bootloader if that doesn't help the problem. Just run the ruu as I stated before hope everything works put well with you. Repost here and I will check later to see your progress and se if I can help a little more.

Thanks for this - I've downloaded the RUU from the top of the thread in development but when I attempt to run it, it throws up a 170 error (I think, not at home at the moment)
When I check the logs it picks up HTC sync and I can see that it's trying to run adb but doesn't seem to manage it. Any ideas?
I will give the other thing a go this evening!

Backstory: I tried flashing android revolution for the amaze once, and it didn't work (error 1) left it alone for a bit after recovering it, went back to bulletproof and flashed faux .009 kernel, then decided to try again...
Well I'll try to make this brief, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong subforum but here goes, I tried going from bulletproof 2.5.0 to Android Revolution HD and didn't flash the superwipe .zip (lazy me). The install failed with the same error 1, only this time I can't boot back into recovery. Booting to bootloader works but when I tried going into recovery I see it pop up for maybe a fraction of a second before the phone reboots.
I've tried reflashing clockwork mod but no dice
any sort of tips you folks can give me to steer me in the right direction?

Not sure about the Amaze tbh, but if I had a failed flash on either of my HTC phones, I just re RUU'd.
D'oh! I forgot about that! Had to do that for my buddy's thunderbolt a few times. Lemme give that a shot and I'll report back
Edit: Worked

You need to superwipe the phone and flash the ROM. After the ROM flashes, you have to flash the kernel twice.

Same with you. You need to superwipe the phone and flash the ROM. After the ROM flashes, you have to flash the kernel twice.
Superwiping the phone removes all the data from the old ROM so you can install a fresh clean ROM.
If you want to install the RUU, you have to relock the bootloader first and then you can reflash the original RUU

To flash an official RUU, you must relock it. I've done so plenty of times lol
Sent From My HTC Amaze 4G via Someone's Room
If the phone wont go into recovery, you have to use ADB and wipe the cache partition for it to go into recovery again. This is apparently a bug with some of recoveries posted by other devs in the development forum. You need to use fastboot.exe to wipe the cache via adb
And if... If the superwipe doesn't work due to recovery version you have try to boot in to your Bootloader run one of hasoon's tool and choose different recovery.. it did happen to me the bootloop before due to the fact the old roms like mike's rom. he doesn't update his script to support the newer recoveries and it doesn't support X's recovery, it will give you an error installation.. just try different recoveries and for sure your problem will be solved..
just make sure boot in your bootloader/H-boot then run hasoon's tool and have enough battery just to make sure...

Thanks for the good info Sir but i my HTC Amaze is bootloader locked and S-ON but i cannot find a RUU for T-mobile to unbrick it. Will a Ruu such as this one work?
RUU_Ruby_Videotron_CA_1.46.1530.1_R2_Radio_1.09.550L.17DC_30.68.550L.09_release_227343_signed.exe
My HTC Amaze scans all the versions of the PH85IMG i place on the sd card but goes back to the menu when its down
any advice that could help i will appreciate!
There's a thread in the dev section that has about a dozen RUUs. I don't see how one can miss it.
Thanks for your reply but i was a little unsure and did not want to make my phone any worst than it already is.
Can you explain 1 thing thing for me please - RUU always you to flash the phone via the computer? where as PH85img.zip allows you to flash the phone via sdcard? I hope i am correct here.
but i want to know how can i flash the phone when its connected via HBoot usb cause my pc recognizes it as "Android Composite ADB Interface"
Currently this is what is on my lcd
LOCKED
RUBY PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.93.0002
EMMC BOOT
MAR 15 2012
i have tried several PH85img.zip files but the phone just scans them and goes back to the menu.
Some help will be appreciated extremely.

I forgot to mention it connects to the pc but when i run command adb devices this is what i get

The latest ruu would be your best option, do not put the .zip part of the name since its already there, also a ruu may be an exe or zip file, since it is a complete stock file to restore the device, what would your carrier be to be exact? Just not up to reading through everything in this thread to see if you mentioned that piece of info, if its tmobile then the very first file in the stock ruu/ota thread would be the file you need.

Why are you using recovery exactly?
RUU's are to be flash via hboot, which is the very first screen you see when you go into the device's bootloader, in the case of exe files, you'll need to flash it via fastboot mode, which happens to be, correct me if I'm wrong, the very first or second option on the hboot menu.
yes you are correct cause i just tried it with an RUU from another carrier. i found out that the phone had 2.14.531 software installed. but the RUU i was using was 1.46 and so i got a signature error 132. now i need to find a way to remove the 2.14.531 software and replace it with a lower version. can you help me here

hey,
I bought HTC amaze 4g in Lahore, Pakistan. When I bought it, it was locked with S-ON and gingerbread v2.3.4 running on it. I waited for few days so i can get an ICS update through OTA but it never happened and there were slim chances that it would happen. Since i bought it here in Pakistan so there was no carrier attached to my phone so my stock ROM is not made for any specific carrier.
Now i have unlocked the phone (HTC BOOTLOADER METHOD) and then rooted my phone as well. So far its working fine with the stock ROM and everything. Now i want to update my amaze to ICS. i have read so much and tried to find some suitable way to achieve this but failed.
Can anyone guide me through this whole procedure with same case scenario as mine?? I have been sitting infront of the laptop for like 2 consecutive days and i have almost lost all hope to see my amaze running ICS ... so if anyone can help me out with this regard i would be very thankful ...

There's no unbranded RUU for the Amaze, so there isn't really any ICS update for you. The only thing you'll have to do is pick the T-Mobile ICS RUU and go on from there.

Thanks alot for your reply. But that is exactly what i want to do and being not able to do ...
Actually let me put my case more appropriately.
1. I want to update my phone to ICS but then again don't want to loose my warranty (which right now is lost as the phone is un locked and rooted). So before going to update my OS i would like to make sure i can un-lock/lock and root/un-root it? un-lock and rooting part is done now its the reverse mechanism i am seeking help with. No custom or stock rom has been flashed on my bootloader so far.
i have CWM recovery installed on my phone i have made a backup of my phone through it, which i saved on my pc as well as the phone storage now that would be my stock roms image please correct me if i am wrong?
2. And then in the second step i would like to update my os to ICS for that reason i had visited this thread
[Collection] HTC Ruby/Amaze 4G Stock ROMs (RUUs & OTAs)
Thread By: krook6023
and from here i can download the RUU you are talking about right? But wouldn't the software build or kernel version difference make it un successful updation?
if not then i will download one of those RUU's but guide me through with the next steps actually required to update it currently the phone is Un-locked, rooted and S-ON.
I know i am being too naive about things but this is my first android device and i really don't want to mess it up but that doesn't mean i haven't done research i have been reading stuff but as long as i don't get it done once by my hand i think i wont be comfortable doing it, hence require guidance.
Thanks in advance.

put the RUU into the root of the sdcard, it must be named PH85IMG.zip to be detected so rename it if it isnt.
turn off fastboot if its on (find it yourself) power off the phone and then power it on by holding pwr and down on the volume key
OR turn off the phone and then pull the battery, replace and power on using pwr and volume down. Then you will see the menu and choose fastboot it will check the RUU and take a long time then it will say press a key to flash the update, do it. wait a while. even if it seems to take a while dont pull the battery. when the phone boots do the setup and then in google market get ES file explorer and use it to rename the PH85IMG.zip to PH85IMG_1.zip or something so it wont detect it and start the long RUU check if you just want to get into the recovery.
I leave the RUU on my sd card just renamed cause ive had some funny problems and this can save your ass
hope this helped,

Hey,
Well i can help you with unlocking bootloader but i haven't done S-Off mine is still S-On. For unlocking your bootloader i am attaching this word file for you which contains all the steps that are required to unlock your bootloader.
And yes everything on your phones internal memory get wiped once you unlock the and reboot your phone. But things stored on the external memory wont be touched they will stay intact. So before unlocking do make a backup of all your applications and store it on your pc and later on put it back on your sd card and download the recovery software you used before to make backup to do restore this time... Hope that would help you.
Isnt your method for 2.3.6? This guy has ics. I have the same tmobile one I simply used hasoon tool to unlock bootloader install recovery and root. Havent done s=off yet. I dont see the point of s=off and supercid yet. Still confused as to if I need them or not

Hi,
Well with regard to just unlocking bootloader the method i sent him would work just fine whether it is ICS or GG. But to install recovery and rooting you need extra steps which he didn't asked for and yes you can do that with the hasoon all in one tool kit.
Can you tell me how you got s-off is wire trick the only way? If so youtube is blocked how can I get that video

Well daniyal i haven't done S-Off yet as i wrote in my previous posts and what i have read in the articles and discussions its a little cumbersome method to achieve that since i haven't done it myself. For youtube part if you want to use youtube you can download and use hotspot shield. Just download it and connect it and it will allow you to use youtube. I hope this helps you.
Also studying in Pakistan and a question does your phone have tmobile logo? If so then do the ph85img method mentioned earlier (don't worry it won't mess up your device) and you don't really need to s-off if you use 4ext recovery which is the best imo. Right now I am on vacation (back in us) but I come back first week of january if you still can't figure this out or feel too scared just call me up (I will pm you my number) and I can walk you through it on the phone quite simple (and if you want to s-off and I can help you with that too) would do it personally if you were in karachi...

Well this is great to have some to talk to in person. It would be doubly great if you could help out with the original questions i posted in the start of my thread. Thanks.
If you want to update it to ICS, most likely, you will have to S-Off it, as there are probably no RUUs that will work with your phone's CID.
It would be helpful if you told us what your CID was. To obtain the CID code from your phone, use the included attachment, extract it to an accessible location, and then boot your phone in FASTBOOT mode, not the BOOTLOADER mode. After you boot in there, plug in the USB cable to the computer.
After you've done that, double click on the file, CID.bat
Let the command run, and then go in the folder where you extracted the files to, and there should be a file called CIDNUMBER.log. Copy the result and then post it here.

Anyone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there is a RUU you can use with that CID.
It *IS* possible to have the phone update to ICS, but what is *NOT* possible (as of now, because of no RUU for your CID), is to have the phone downgrade back to GB if you need it for warranty purposes. In this scenario, it's an one way street.
You have 2 options really, to leave your phone as is, or to S-OFF the phone in order to update the phone to ICS.

In either case to update to ICS or to get the locked (not relocked) status back with S-on for warranty purposes i need to do S-off isn't that right?
Well for now my amaze is unlocked and rooted so warranty is out of the window and i cant get it back to locked status it always says relocked so i would like to move forward and then with the help of guys like you i would like to get back to original stock if possible.
so whats the next step for me to get my phone to ICS? If i have to do S-off whats the easiest way of achieving it and after achieving it what are the next steps to perform upgradation?
I have a question. I have s-on and rooted my phone and installed twrp while having unlocked bootloader. I want to install 4ext as someone told me thats better on here. Do i have to uninstall twrp or I can just use hansoon tool to install 4ext and it will over right twrp?

Hi, I just got my HTC ONE X+ from Taiwan. I forgot to do a Nandroid Backup before I accidentally flashed a boot.img from another ROM. So, i got stuck in a bootloop. At first I thought it was okay, I just need to flash the ROM which was downloading. I realised that my phone's TWRP Mount USB can't be detected by my computer!! So, I had no way. Fastboot commands whenever i try to flash something it says Command Write Failed Unknown error. for adb it says No Device Found. ADB devices: none. Fastboot: yeah i can see a device there. PLEASE HELP ME. What can I do now? My HBOOT is 1.30.0000, RELOCKED Bootloader(I thought the bootloader was the problem. ENRC2B_U PVT Ship S-On RL

Did you try to use a RUU? Worked for me.
Indeed flash RUU trough fastboot, since u can still use that it should be fixed after that

I googled HTC ONE X+ RUU. And was fruitless. Many are third party ROMs, and I'm not sure where to download the correct one. Even which to choose I'm not sure.
drivers installed?
There's a link on the TWRP thread you should have read before installing.
As Lloir says, do you have the HTC driver package installed? What recovery you have, should have no impact on how fastboot detects your device, just install drivers and flash a working kernel through fastboot.

Yes. I got HTC Drivers, Fastboot and ADB. Most of the things I try to flash has an error Command Write Failed or something like Remote Not Allowed and stuff like that And what is RUU? I thought it's like a ROM in ZIP format

Just seen your post,
You could have used adb sideload feature in twrp to send a rom and flash it.
I requested the feature to be added to Hasoons AIO toolkit for situations like this

Same problem
Hey i got the same problem and to start here i'am a noob in this. This is my first Android device and my first time trying to install a ROM. I used Hasoons all-in-one kit, and unlocking to bootloader went fine, so did recovery and Perm Root. I tried to install Android Revolution HD 5.1, so first I tried to install the other firmware that was needed for it, that is 1.16.401.6. I did something wrong there i guess and its stuck at the HTC start up logo. I tried to make sense of the posts above but i couldn't. My PC doesnt recognize the phone anymore but if I use a command from the all in one kit it does still respond and i can use the power and volume down button to go into bootloader. I tried some things there but really dont know what I'am doing. If someone can help me to get a ROM installed or go back to factory settings from the phone atleast make it work again would be much appreciated. I think i installed all the drivers because it worked before and it still does respond to flashboot in all-in-one kit. Sorry for being so noob. and thanks for the help.

Could someone please post an idiot proofed set of instructions to do this.
I have the relevent RUU.exe file, but simply running it doesn't work.
I'm assuming I need to replace the boot.img that I flashed with a stock one, but I don't know how to get it out of the .exe file.
My phone is bootloader unlocked, and rooted, and I can get into bootloader or clockwork recovery, but I can't get any new ROM onto the device via USB.
I just want to start again from stock...

To be clear, running the RUU .exe proceeds normally and tells me there's an unknown error and it that it can't update my phone.
Check und my stats. I wrote what I did to solve a similar issue. I just am lazy to search for it myself.

Ok, so I tired to dabble in custom roms and I got burnt!!!
First things first,
HTC One X+ (International)
Version Main: 1.17.708.1
CID: HTC_622
S-On
HBOOT: 1.35.0000
Radio: 3.1204.168.32
I'm trying to RUU the device back to the stock and then never tinker again!
Can someone please step me through this, all the links I'm finding are dead or the RUU doesn't run.
Many thanks =)
Get hasoons20000 one x+ toolkit it has a link for ruu
Gave this a shot, I cannot find the appropriate RUU for my device.

You can download the RUU (ENRC2B) from this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094118
you need to relock your bootloader before running the RUU
http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/get...Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299722_signed.exe
I'm sorry, I must have missed that one :/
I Tried this before but the RUU used didn't work, but I'll try to re-download and go from there.
(RUU_ENRC2B_U_JB_45_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.17.707.1_Radio_3.1204.168.32_release_299722_signed.exe)
Will it be a problem that my phone is 1.17.708.1 and that this is 1.17.707.1 (0.0.001 lower)?
Also, do I need to flash the stock recovery. And If so where would I go about getting it?
You will only have to relock the bootloader again and then (while in fastboot) run the RUU. Remember that you will lose everything on the device.
To relock the bootloader use Hansoon's toolkit. It has all the commands build in for easy use.
"Wrong CID" I'm not sure why this is wrong. 662 came back from fastboot getvar cid, and does indeed correspond to Hong Kong.
What would you advise from here dear sir?

Are you sure it's a generic HK CID? And not an operator locked one? Maybe you need the RUU from a particular operator.....

I looked up the CID and it's just for HK, the phone came unlock so I doubt it needs a locked RUU. But hey, I've been wrong before.
Is there any reason the phone would not accept the correct RUU?
Okk,
This might seem a bit weird but I had the same issue with my Intl HOX+ and I have given it to hTC and they asked me to shell out aroun 18K to change the motherboard! (Which of course we all know is not required since this is a software issue).
So here is what I did:
1. I relocked the boot loader (I hope you have the unlock_code.bin with you, else get it from hTCDev)
2. Of course it started giving relocked security warning.
3. Again unlocked the boot loader and voila - it booted straight in to Elegancia!
This essentiially happens because unlocking the bootloader formats all the partitions except system and boot (I guess, because my media files were gone...).
See if this gets you through.
But DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
I am talking about International HOX+, I do not know if ATT works in a different way.
Unfortunately that hasn't worked and I'm still stuck with the stall during boot :/
I think my best bet will the RUU, but I just can't get one that will work.
Do you know a ROM that I could side-load onto my device and just use it with that?
Thanks

From this stuff I'm pretty sure it's broke, but I can get to the boot loader and recovery. Though I ran the appropriate (so I thought) RUU and it didn't work due to CID which stumped me.

flash twrp through fasboot as only twrp provides side load option.
when twrp is flashed ,boot to recovery.side load incertcoin rom through hasoons toolkit.
don't worry about 707 or 708 etc.Mine was 707.1 but i am using incertcoin which is 401.3
after falshing incertcoin if it is again in boot loop then
use this command from adb
adb shell
wipe data
and reboot
you will be done.
