So here's the situation, I rooted my phone. Decided to switch around ROMS (ViperX+ and CyanMod 10.2). But neither of them booted. I accidently wiped my whole SD and Data so nothings on my device anymore, No OS or ROMS to flash. Finally was able to push a file through "adb push /Vipers+ /sdcard" . but then that OS did not work either. And it was built exactly for my phone (AT&T One X+). So I know the ROM should be working. So now little scared me just wants to go back to stock and unroot the phone. The issue is I can't find the right RUU. If anyone could help me with finding that I would be most grateful... PS, my boot loader is version 1.49.0000 and I'm s-on (Obviously) and my Cid is CWS__001

You can't flash kernel through recovery with S-On devices. You have to extract it from the rom.zip and flash through fastboot...

ViperX+ is an international ROM and can't be installed on an AT&T phone.
ViperXL is is for AT&T/Tellus

I got my Evo 3d off Craigslist this morning and i love it. Traded my Evo 4g plus cash for it and i couldnt be happier. I was very successful in rooting the 4g amd never had any problems that i can think of and im hoping the same goes for the 3d.
Anyways ive been reading and reading on how to root it, get s-off so i can install a recovery and them flash a rom and kernel. Ive managed to confuse myself because it seems that if you root it one way, you may not be able tp fash custom kernels and if you use another method to root it, your more than like to have all sorts of problems.
Basicall i need help and if someone could post a link to show me best method on how to root, s-off, install custom recovery, and install a rom on the 3d it would be greatly appreciated.
I have Sprint (cdma) Android 2.3.4. Software # 2.08.651.2 hboot 1.5, baseband 0.97.10.0808

I ended up goin a different route by using the HTC unlcock bootloader and that was suscessful. I still have s on and I think I'm gonna keep it that way for now but I need to install a custom recovery.
I've tried setting up sdk all morning and can't get the cmd to recognize adbas an interal or external command. Not sure what exactly it is that in doing wrong.
I wanting to know if there'sa way to install my first custom recovery thru the bootloader in my phone without using my computer so I can flash the su.zip and get this thing rooted. Thanks

The twrp recovery has a method to flash that recovery without a computer by downloading it as a zip and naming it properly. See their site for detail.
I still recommend s-off since it is easier to flash Roms and the ics Roms tend to bootloop with s-on.

It looks like you renamed it to the wrong thing. If you downloaded TWRP 2.2.0 zip, it must be renamed PG86IMG.zip on the root of the sd card. Then when you update in bootloader, it should work.

Hmmm... Does your phone boot? If so, you could download 4ext (see my signature) and install their app. Then it will push the custom recovery for you. I use 4ext myself anyway.
I tried using their app already and it won't let me since I don't have root

Just wanted to give you a thanks again for all your help. I was finally able to figure out why adb wasn't working. Once thaat was fixed, I installed twrp recovery and flashed Su.then did the wire trick which me VERY nervous but it worked and got S-Off after a couple tries and I then installed 4ext recovery from which I understand is the best recovery available. Thanks again!

Your welcome. Glad you figured it out. I personally have never had an issue with the 4ext recovery.
Hi everyone,
I recently tried to flash a new ROM and had to upgrade my HBOOT. After i did so, I continued to flash the rom but probably made a noob move along the way because it got stuck at the HTC boot logo. I turned my phone off and then booted into recovery again but then got the error that 4ext was booting into safe mode because it could not mount the sd card. I did a bit of research and came across a thread that said to reflash 4ext and so I did. Now when I'm trying to boot into recovery, I get stuck at HTC boot logo again. At this point all I can boot into is HBOOT. Is there anything I can do or is my phone pretty much bricked?
My HBOOT version is currently 1.93.002.
Thanks.

If 4ext boot in safe mode it means your system partition or some other partition is corrupted the safest way to fix it is by running a ruu since your t mobile you won't face much trouble just lock your bootloader and run a t mobile ruu R2 is the latest

Well i cant get into 4ext at all now.
But i do have a few questions if you dont mind:
Would i lock it simply by doing fastboot oem lock in command prompt?
So the ruu would be the first one under tmobile on this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1617644?
And could you link me to or give me a quick tutorial on how to flash the ruu without being able to get into 4ext?
Sorry im kind of a noob at this.

Hey all,
so I've come into a bit of a conundrum. I was playing with the MaximusHD Jellybean 4.3 ROM. It was alright, but not for me. So I decided to flash back to stock. After a bit of finagling, I got a Stock Rooted 4.1.2 ROM for my phone, and was able to flash it. But now, I can't RUU my phone back to complete stock. Relocking the bootloader produces a **Security warning**, which prevents booting. Now, with an unlocked bootloader the stock ROM boots fine -- but locked, it doesn't boot and goes directly to bootloader. Can someone please walk me through getting my phone back to normal? I've used the RUU before to return to complete stock once before, except I'm not sure what I've done wrong this time around. Any help is appreciated. Also, I have TWRP recovery (latest version), unfortunately without a Nandroid backup
My phone works fine right now -- albeit rooted. Thank you!
Try flashing a stock recovery before relocking.

Hi,
I have the exact same problem here, i've had my HTC One with a 2-year plan @t-mobile but with the stock rom i haven't had any t-mobile bloatware/splash screen. Is that normal?
Also if i flash a stock t-mobile rom it hangs at the bootloader.

Yes it will help. I am no dev. Once your s off you won't need to lock your device and can run ruu

Unfortunately, flashing a stock recovery just prevented my device from booting normally. I had to reflash TWRP to get it to boot properly... unless I just didn't give the boot process enough time on the stock recovery.
You can put any recovery on your phone, lock it, and run fastboot rebootRUU from hboot to run the RUU.

Wonderful! I'll try this after school today. Will report back...
word, let me know if you have any trouble. :good:
I know this isn't the right section but this problem has lasted over two weeks and I can't manage to fix it even though it's just a simple bootloop. What I did to my one x+ was to try and install a recovery through terminal emulator by using a guide from another device's forum. But after I rebooted my device, the recovery didn't changed but instead I'm facing a bootloop. So I tried wiping data and installed the rom again but it's still stuck. Tried with other rooms and still same problem. If there is anyone who can help I'll be happy if not then I'll just say goodbye to this device.
Did you try to install the recovery again,through a Tutorial meant for our device. You could try hasoons toolkit

What you did can only be done on a device with S-OFF. Flash the recovery the proper way with fastboot commands

Correction. What i meant was the android 4.4 aosp build
Hello, I just bought a used AT&T M8 and am trying to convert it back to sense. Im not familiar with messing with HTCs. I see in hboot that it is unlocked and s-off. It looks like they put pure google on it. Ive been looking and seeing different instructionson gett phone back to stock but they seem scattered. I saw and tried running official ruu for 1.58 found in another thread but only get to the point where it tries to reboot into boot loader and then it says it cant and to find a ruu compatible with my device. I cant tell what custom recovery it has. Everytime in hboot when i choose recovery it just hangs and says bad command. Can somebody tell me instructions on how to run this ruu?

In your boot loader, what os does it say you have? We need to know if they did a true gpe conversion or just a rom. Does it have 3 android guys on skateboards or something else?
On the boot loader, it just says os-. I have attached a pic of my boot loader. Thanks for responding.

I know you solved your issue another way. But just so you know (and others, too) an RUU does not typically require stock recovery; while OTA does require stock recovery (probably the reason for the confusion).
Thanks. I ended up just flashing the RUU yesterday with stock rooted Rom and TWRP. This is why I love XDA. I was able to buy a M8 pretty cheap and thanks to people here, I was able to get it going.?
