[Q] stock ruu t6ul - HTC One Max

Hi People,
I have to admit life with my finger print scanner has been great
But I want to put my HTC One max completely back to stock. Rom, Kernal, recovery, the lot.
Just one problem i can not find the original RUU for the phone. I must have deleted it or something :crying:
The details of my device are attached.
As far as i am aware i am still using the original ROM that came with phone.
All i have done was unlocked the bootloader, flashed a custom recovery (CWM) and then managed to lock my boot loader using firewater.
I am now S-off but like i said i want it back to stock completely.
Can someone please help me out again by letting me know how to do a back to stock and where i can find a stock RUU
Thanks again

You can restore a CWM backup of 1.54.401.1 and then flash a stock 1.54.401.1 recovery in fastboot and then factory reset your phone in Stock Recovery. This will take your phone back to stock state and you'll be able to receive OTA for 4.4 also.
All you need a stock nandroid backup of 1.54.401.1 and stock recovery.

Hey farazhassankhan,
Thanks for the info. I have done everything apart from the factory reset from the stock recovery. I've flashed the stock recovery on the phone. But I have no idea how to do this, as all that shows up while I'm in the stock recovery is a picture of a phone with a red triangle with an exclamation mark though it. Is there a way to access a menu or something?

Yes, there is a way. Click on "Recovery" in bootloader and wait untill it passes htc screen. Then press "volume up" and power button couple of times and then keep pressing Volume up.
There will be a message:
mount SD Card failed 1
mount SD Card failed 2
mount SD Card failed 3
mount SD Card failed 4
mount SD Card failed 5
and there must be a Stock Recovery menu (in blue) on your screen and there you can factory rest your One Max.
Please bear in mind that factory reset will wipe all your date (inculding media file such as pictures/songs/downloads etc) from phone and you'll have to set up your pbone again
You should be able to receive 4.4 OTA (if available for your region yet)

Oh mate i feel for you i know that feeling very well.
I used Firewater to s-off.
I then flashed a stock nandroid backup kindly provided in this thread. Then flashed stock recovery.
Chances are its the unsecure kernal causing this boot loop. I'm not an expert though. there is a 708 stock rom on somewhere on these forums
so you could try flashing that to the phone.
I'm sure you will get it sorted with the help of the kind people on here.

try flashing the boot.imgvfrom the nandroid backup i shared.
or is it because you did have kitkat as your bootloader shows os 2.61.708.1. is the stock 1.54.401 conflicting with what hboot says stopping it?
install twrp recovery and install virtuous one max 2.0.2. least your phone will come back on hopefully.

my Hboot is 2.47.0000.
i think thats you problem, the hboot is too new for the stock 1.54.401. i used firewater on hboot 2.47 to gain s-off. dont know if firewater works on hboot 2.49
unless you get s-off, i don't think you can downgrade the hboot. fingers crossed the virtuous rom should work for you my friend. as virtuous is based on the ota, in theory it should be fine with your hboot.
your best bet might be to get the boot.img from the ota for your region.
