Dear XDA forum members,
I want to go back to stock rom. Searched the internet for a RUU but apparently the don't excist for my ROM version (Insertcoin 4.2.2, HBOOT 1.40). I tried all kind of tricks but without success. What I understood is that I have to go back to stock via a nandroid backup. Unfortunatly I don't have a nandroid stock backup. Is there anybody out there that has a nandroid stock backup I can use? Or does anybody have any ideas how to go back to stock from my current custom ROM?
I have been busy with this for half a week already and still no success...
Thanks guys in advance for all the help....
Greetings...Marcel

Please post your CID (which is found either by looking in Play Store for "Cid getter" OR you boot to the bootloader and you will find it at the TOP of the screen.
And you must tell us whether it is International Or AT&T
Post these information and We can help you from then.
Sorry... But my CID is HTC_E11 and it is the International version.
Thanks

I finally managed to get stock ROM on my HOX+ :laugh: , thanks to the thread I mentioned in my previous post. Still have to flash stock recovery.
I thought I had it done but after trying to flash a stock recovery things went wrong...
If I reboot it is stuck at the white screen with the HTC logo.
I managed to put a recovery on it but everytime I want to sideload a rom it says device not connected.
This is driving me crazy.....any ideas??
Thanks!

If you can't boot then you forgot to flash boot the boot.img (or boot.emmc.win if the recovery was made using TWRP) , connect your phone to the PC and using fastboot first type in "fastboot devices" then if you see your device code , type "fastboot flash boot " then write the exact location of the boot.img then press enter. Read more information about it.
But since you have a custom rom , I don't think thats the problem. is it?

Use that tool so there wont be any issues when flashing a new rom.

Hi, I have an Amaze 4G with ICS 4.0.3, and I want to change the rom for space in the internal memory and battery life, but it has the android 3e recovery, and will not let me flash any recovery or roms or any ZIP, always gives me the error "e: signature failure". I root, I replaced the recovery of the / system / bin for one of this forum, as amended, but still all the same. I visited all the xda forums and HTCMania, I'm Spanish and I can hardly understand English, but I have not found a way to flash without me signing error android 3e.
Help, please

Is your bootloader unlocked?

Its really hard to understand but I don't think you unlocked your boot loader and flashed a recovery.
What method did you use to root?

How sure are you that you're rooted? Anyways, if you just used an app to root, it won't be possible to flash a custom recovery until you unlock your bootloader.
hello, I have not posted before, it broke my wifi.
Turns out my ruby, is a Chinese clone, if you have not unlocked the bootloader, but try to flash the recovery.img with flashtools and I did, but it was starting to 3e, so try flashing boot.img, a boot.img flashtools accept, and did, but when you restart the phone, it stays in green android screen with black background.
Any idea?

You honestly lost me there, if your device is a Chinese clone, why would you attempt to flash files from this device to begin with? You'll need the stock files for that device to recover it.
of course, but i buy an Htc Amaze 4g and not a chinese phone. i dont know that thing, and now flash recovery.img and boot img compatibles with htc ruby, with flashtools and my phone fake is brick. Only on to android green and hold in that screen.
Today, i open new thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916935.
i am not know this phone is a fake.
somebody can help me.
Thanks.
otherwise, a friend too buy the same phone. I can get the archives necessary to recovery my phone?
I did not know it was a clone, I bought it as HTC Amaze 4G:
http://www.fastcardtech.com/goods.php?id=7080
but when I hear that is a clone someone contact the customer service, and gave me the link to download the stock ROM from my phone.
http://www.sendspace.com/file/lgkfyw
So I made my query in this forum. From what I have seen, this MOBILE, carries a EVO 4g rom, so I'll try to find solutions for this.
I appreciate all the responses received.
thanks
Anyone know where I can find the AT&T Factory ROM i forgot to do a backup and need to put this ROM back on the device.
i can not find it.maybe few months later,you can get it here.
Is it weird that there's no RUU? It's been a while since I had an GTC phone so I don't remember how long it took to have one on a new phone.

I feel like it is weird, though the One is the only device I got close to release. My Vivid and Inspire were both purchased a few months after release, and iirc the ATT RUUs were available when I got it, but I guess that doesn't mean they were available at release.

Actually, this leads to a nagging question I have as a first time rooter. I want to use the stock ATT Rom, but root the phone so I can install apps than requre root access and am all about taking back total contole of my device.
SO If I want to keep the stock rom and just root it, I would need to back up the device?
So if someone could throw me a bone How would I gain root access to the device whilst keeping the stock ROM?
I plan on using Hasoon's Tool kit.

flash the stock rom through recovery and then flash superuser.zip in recovery. boom. rooted on stock
If you are completely stock then Once you unlock your bootloader flash twrp recovery. Then boot to recovery. Then reboot from recovery. Twrp is smart enough to recognize you don't have root and prompt you to install superuser and binaries. After that I found a busybox flashable zip via google, as the busybox installer from the market wouldn't work for me. This leaves you on a stock odexed Rom with root. Note that unlocking your bootloader will wipe data..so backup anything important first

did the international stock recovery work for you ? i was able to flash it but when i try to go into recovery its just black screen no recovery. Your reply appreciated

If you flash stock recovery successfully and you try to boot to said recovery, you won't have any options to do anything. I never cared to look at it on this device but usually all you'll see is a triangle with an exclamation point. That's stock recovery. If you want to flash anything, you can't use stock

I don't think anyone's still following this thread, but did you relock the bootloader before returning it? i was thinking of just flashing recovery back. I don't think anyone at the store would bother to look at that anyway. Whenever I go there, the employees seem to know less than nothing about phones lol.

Thanks for the solution. But actual problem is that i wanted to flash custom rom that is bricking my phone. Tried gb 2.3 on my froyo but it kept crashing on next immidiate boot. Isn't bootloader denying to flash that rom, is it? That's my reason for unlocking my bootloader.also, is it the locked carrier that prohibiting the rom to operate or my phone that isn't upgradable. I can't figure that out. Plz give me another way to flash custom rom on my rooted phone. Thanx for info!waiting for the solution

The million dollar question is where are you going wrong?
Do you have a custom recovery e.g Clockworkmod for your phone?
If not follow instructions here
Is the ROM specifically for your device?
Try CM 7
Is you bootloader really unlocked?
Try Z4root for the job
Try flashing the new rom via custom recovery and make sure you have this prerequisites. You are a big boy, you know what to do!
PS: If you want to unlock your phone(Locked Carrier) try this
nice work
:cyclops:Yes i'm impressed. nice work with the contact details. sorry it took me so long, i followed your advice and downloaded the cm7. only problem i faced with it that, my recovery flashed a message that the rom was made for m860. i tried to edit that rom in kitchen by using my boot.img. but still no success.can you please suggest what should i be modifying to convert that rom into mine.:good:

Hi,
So I initially wanted to use an RUU on my device. After figuring out I have a Vodafone UK device, and trying to find an RUU I have not succeeded. The only RUU I could find was a 1.14.106.x but my phone is at 1.17.106.x so I can't use that as it won't downgrade. If anyone knew where to get a newer version that'd be great.
But then I figured maybe I should just flash a pretty much stock ROM and that would do the trick for me. I decided on Revolution 8.0. I went into recovery flashed it and now I am stuck in a boot loop.
I can get into recovery and fastboot, know basic adb and fastboot but really need some help here! I'm all out of ideas, don't know what to do just want to get my phone back up and running again. I know you guys have a huge knowledge with this stuff so hoping you can help me.
Thanks in advance

Somewhat similar situation. I previously rooted my HTC One X+ (Intl) with Viper X+ rom. I thought I would experiment with it as it is no longer my daily phone, and since I liked the Cyanogen experience on OnePlus One, thought i would try to install it on the HOX+.
I followed these official (?) instructions http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_enrc2b#Installing_recovery_using_fastboot, however, after getting CWM recovery on and then flashing via sideload command the ROM, I am now stuck in the CM bootloop animation and computer no longer recognises the device, and can't find anyway to get back to bootloader, recovery etc.
I did read about bootloop issues after this and some people said that the boot.imhg file should have been flashed separately (thanks CM for not including that instruction!), and somehow my computer recognised it one more time after the bootlooping started and I managed to get into fastboot to flash boot.img, but, then rebooted and bootloop again. Since then I have had no way to get back into recovery or bootloader, so it just runs until battery dies.
Should it go into the bin? Or anything else I should try?
Thanks so much for any
EDIT: Solved...I was able to get recovery back, then did full reset and followed instructions above re boot.img flash and now am back into my phone with a new lease on life and CM ROM!!
Two more noob questions if I may, now that I have my HOX+ back...
I am now running CM 10.2.1-enrc2b.
I have 3 updates available and being offered to me (upgrade to CM11 from CM10):
- cm-11-20140308-SNAPSHOT-M4
- cm-11-20140916-SNAPSHOT-M10
- cm-11-20140916-SNAPSHOT-M12
1. I downloaded and installed the latest M12, but upon rebooting it went into a bootloop for 15mins+. I then followed your instructions again to get back. So, it seems I at least need to install them in order starting from the earliest (ie M4), but before doing so I wanted to check if anyone knows if these are even compatible with my HOX+ (Intl)?
2. Which would be the best place to get the right gapps package and installation instructions (if CM can get it wrong, am now wary of someone else leaving out the critical boot.img flash step eg)?
Thanks!

to get into bootloader, hold down the vol down and power, the home lights will flash (atleast they do when its booting), it will reboot, when you get the htc logo, let go of power button. and now try a stable er version of the rom.

ok, dont do an ota update in cm, you need s-off, which you cant get on the hox+
flash the rom, flash the boot image, boot, reboot into recovery, SIDELOAD gapps and that should work. use cm10 for the moment, as cm11 has an annoying system ui crash loop bug.
Thanks again for your clear and helpful pointers that got me out of a mess, I seem to have figured it out, downloaded the latest CM11 update and extracted boot.img for separate flashing and it all worked, then added gapps and seems working good now (except for dead touch zone from kids dropping it too many times probably!). The OTAs clearly don't work as is and CM probably should update their instructions and how they push major updates that need a new boot.img. Now to work out what to do with my spare phone...!
