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
Is this the Ruu your looking for

Hey,
thanks for that.
I cant believe that the original RUU does not exist.
Oh well that's me screwed then :silly:
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.

If you followed the directions for installing the latest leak as in post#10 and it flashed correctly your phone should work. I don't know what else the problem could be.
YOu put the .zip on your SD card....took out battery...put back in...held vol down and power to boot into bootloader....it found the ph98img.zip (RUU)....took a long time to flash....all items showed 'ok' .....then booted up.....if it bootloops still...I'm puzzled..because this should give you 'stock' ICS (as closed to stock as we think it will be when the OTA comes out)
could try again. The NEW firmware patch is used if you are on ICS firmware and you try to run a GB rom.

Wow..I'm out of ideas... ebay? HTC? :crying:
Maybe try going 'all the way back' to stock by flashing one of the official OTA RUU's found in one of the sticky roll up threads. Oh, you can't do that because you are s-on.. Sorry, you'd have to do the s-off if you want to flash the older RUU....what have you got to lose at this point.
so i went to switch out my battery and when i turned the phone back on it vibrated and displayed the white htc screen, then went black for a second and then stays on the white htc screen forever! Im a total noob when it comes to all the technical stuff about RUU's Kernels Roms and whatnot. I can get to bootloader, but i tried to do factory reset and it showed a green circle with a loading bar but then it changed into a red triangle with an exclamation. I tried flashing amon ra recovery but it doesnt work, although TWRP works. While in TWRP though, whenever i try to flash a zip file, it fails and says something like E:failed to mount /cache E:failed to mount /system E:failed to mount /data. Please help me i need this phone working to help me at my job. If someone can walk me through what i need to do i would REALLLYYYY appreciate it. Like i said though, i am a noob so i need realy stupified instructions lol. Thanks

First you should go to shipped-roms.com and download the vigor ics ruu.exe, the rezound downloads there are under vigor . Plug your phone into your computer and from hboot highlight fastboot press power and run the .exe file from your computer and follow the on screen instructions, this will return your phone to full stock ics. Make sure you download the vigor ics ruu.exe as the GB ruu will not work with s-on.
You can also download this: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ it's the latest ruu it'll update your hboot, stock recovery, rom, and radios, to latest stock. Just download, rename the zip file to PH98IMG (don't include .zip it is a zip file it'll add it on its own in hboot) put it on your sd card, not in a folder just on. Put it back in your phone and boot to bootloader and runn the update, when it powers off. Run it again. (As it has to update the hboot to 2.27 first)Then you'll be on the stock latest. Then root and Rom from there. Of you need help pm me for my gtalk and I could walk you thru it..

So my screen is the exact same, i tried to flash a kernal for not only wrong phone but wrong carrier too. Anyways no OS, when i try to flash either of the ways you have explained they both dont work. When i put it on the sd card as PH98IMG it looks like it loads it in the upper right then thats it. regular bootload screen after that nothing happens. try to load it by opening the application after im plugged in as fasboot usb and the program says Install script setup launcher has stopped working. I have been able to flash liquids rom and looks as if it is booting but waited 24 min and nothing happpend just stayed on boot screen. So im just trying to get back to RUU then work from there.

You need to extract the boot.IMG from liquid Rom and rename it ph98img and put that on your sd card or in the folder with adb and fastboot flash it using fastboot flash boot boot.img

Yes i did reinstall my HTC Sync drivers, I have been wipining factory reset, cache, system, dalvick cache before i flash a new rom. I am S-On. Havent really determined a reason to go s-off yet, i am messing up my phone good enough with this let alone a paperclip. no problem with random reboots. I finally decided to go to a custom rom bc i was sick of my phone rebooting for OTA updates then being late for work. So the 3 roms i have now tried are Liquid smooth which i liked but i couldnt get mms messages to show up on phone. Also it wouldnt change from silent to a beep for text message notifications. i could select it but it would stay as silent. So.... I flashed ViperRezROm which i just didnt like the look and theme. So i finally flashed Cyanogen ROM and come to find out its the same kernal as Liquid smooth so it looks the same and I like that but I still cant change the notification from silent to a beep for text messages. So i never know when i get a text.
Still working on trying to flash a newer version of TWRP.
Then this time flashing I tried to titanium backup and went to load my backup and it cant find it.... WTF
UGH... Learning so much with this stuff. just taking alot of patience.
Thanks again for yalls support, I love this forum.
Mike
BTW just to note...if your bootloader is locked fastboot flash methods will not work 90 percent of the time...if you flashed liquid 3.0 that's more than likely your problem with mms as that is a beta...but on more recent 4.3 builds mms is fixed...and no its not the same kernel...just similar source code...liquid 2.9 does not have this mms issue...any random reboots on 4.2 are caused by min frequency not set right at 384 mhz and using amon ra to flash or not doing a proper clean flash....I do recommend s-off as it will make life much easier for you for modding things or flashing custom zips and for future flashing back to full stock if needed as its not possible while s-on...you can always pm me for help as I've yet to run into an error I can't fix unless posted in op caused by source

There is a few good reasons to S-Off.
1.No need to fastboot flash kernels
2.can RUU if needed
3.can flash recovery updates (cwm, twrp) as ph98img zips
4. Can keep bootloader ***locked***
5. No more ***tampered*** tag after you RUU
Scenario: you are out and about (or a computer isn't handy) somehow you are in an infinite bootloop. You nandroid restore. But it is something on boot partition. Only way to fix this while S-On is fastboot flashing a boot.img, but if you were S-Off, you would have restored the boot image from the nandroid.
Edit: added 5th reason

I finally went S-OFF to help another user get step by step to restore to fully locked and stock ruu. I decided to leave it S-OFF. It's so nice to be able to just load a rom and not have to do anything else (other than wiping). It makes changing/upgrading rom's a breeze.
I highly recommend it. It seems scary, but once you have done it once, you will not go back.
But be warned, never go back to S-ON on a non-HTC hboot... you will hard brick your device. That is the only real threat I've heard about... if you never go back to S-ON, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Just about any error can be fixed except for going s-on on a non-ruu hboot.

You need to extract the boot.IMG from liquid Rom and rename it ph98img and put that on your sd card or in the folder with adb and fastboot flash it using fastboot flash boot boot.img

If English is not your first language I apologise.
Otherwise, you need to be more specific and use full sentences.

you were dead on accurate regarding my problem. Your post helped me revive an all but dead rezound!! Thanks man!!
I've tried multiple ways of returning to stock, including PJ75IMG.zip and running the RUU for my version. TWRP won't let me flash anything I've tried and they all fail. I can install backups from TWRP no problem there. I'll try to give as many details as possible, but I can't figure out what is wrong.

I'm dying to figure this one out, as all I want to do is return it to completely stock so I can start again clean. Thanks guys.

Update your twrp to 2.3.3.0 or if you want to return to stock you have to relock your bootloader
Sent from my PoS MoPho
TWRP won't take the update for whatever reason, and I can't get fastboot to work over this machine, so I'm thinking about running linux to get into the phone a little easier (hopefully.) I either have to wait til I can use my roommates machine, or start installing a dual boot
Have you tried goomanager to update twrp?
Yea, it downloads the file, gives a message stating it has been installed, then it does nothing. No reboot. when I manually reboot into recovery, it still sits at previous version.
Do you have adb setup on your PC? Also do you have the correct drivers installed ?
#Root-Hack_Mod*Always=SG3
Ok, so finally got my fastboot to work
"Fastboot oem lock"
Worked. Awesome...now it's stuck in a bootloader loop. Won't let me into recovery, but I can still get to fastboot. I can't get to recovery, factory reset, etc. just hboot and fastboot.
screen shows tampered relocked and security warning.
Any ideas? I can get it to flash the PJ75IMG.zip but it says main version is older! or something to that effect and it fails. Any ideas?
UPDATE: Got it unlocked again and it booted back into OS.
Bump. I'd really like to get this phone on the newest versions of everything. Anyone have any ideas?

No, but I was wondering if I could flash things in that state. Since it wasn't moving past bootloader I wasn't sure if I should try anything. Is stock recovery effected by anything like software version?
Sorry to need hand-holding, but I'm really lost, lol :crying:

Well since you are s-on you can't flash PJ75IMG files from bootloader if you want to update your phone to the latest OTA you have to relock your bootloader and reflash the stock recovery and take the OTA then unlock and flash twrp again.
If you click the link in my sig and download the 3.15/2.09 hboot file there is a stock recovery in the files as well as instructions on how to flash it

So I'm trying to run the Dirty Racun method, and I'm sitting at this part "sudo ./fastboot flash zip RUU.zip"
How long should this normally take? The only thing I can see is Sending 'zip' (filesize) and htc on the phone. Does this process take awhile? >20 mins? Is there some kind of progress meter?
Update:// So apparently I'm stuck. DirtyRacun seems to hang on the RUU flash. BigDaddy, it also stops half way thru the stock recovery flash.
I have been having the worst time trying to take my Rezound back to stock. I rooted it a long while ago and am now stuck. I was able to relock but still at s-on and I cant seem to find the right RUU exe file to load the system back to stock. Current info is as follows;
HBOOT-2.25.0000
RADIO-1.22.10.0421r/1.22.10.0424r
OpenDSP-v13.6.0.7611.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Image version 3.14.605.12
I am a complete noob so I will need as much simple directions as possible. I am desperate at this point since I cant seem to get it to reload the stock. Every time I use the RUU.exe files
RUU_VIGOR_ICS_35_S_VERIZON_WWE_3.14.605.12_Radio_RS_1.22.10.0424r_3622A_MR3_9K_release_270509_signed.exe
Found on androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Vigor or any of the other ones it fails. Fortunately I have not bricked the phone yet but I am running out of options since android police site has one but says not to use it : This will not work if you used the HTC Bootloader unlock tool. Your device must be fully stock with a locked bootloader or you must have S-Off (method).
Help please!!!
Try this link here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Vigor and download the PH98IMG_ICS_3.14.605.12.zip! Do not download any others. Rename it to PH98IMG.zip and flash in bootloader. It should allow you to flash it.
If I'm incorrect on something someone plz correct it

Okay I am kinda stupid at the moment since I have fried my brain trying everything. How do I flash it? and will that brick my phone since I am S-on?

After you rename it place it on the root directory of the SD card. Then power phone off. Then press volume down + power so it boots into bootloader. There it should ask if you want to update. Tell it yes. It won't brick you as its the same s/w you seem to be on. Worst case it won't flash.
Edit: make sure you verify the md5!

What message do you get when running the RUU, also what Rom were you running prior to relocking?
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
My rezound is semi-bricked currently and I am also looking to get back to stock form. I think the most current ROM that I had on it would be like Infection2.3. But I cannot seem to get past the boot animation and I believe the RUU needs to be actually booted up all the way? I will check the Hboot versions and such when I get home. (I tried a ph98img in the root but when it attempted to flash I got "HBoot version is older than expected, exiting")
Any thoughts?

Remember to flash a ph98img zip RUU, the bootloader must be relocked and internal storage will also be completely wiped. Backup the contents in recovery using usb mass storage mounts.

Sounds like all that needs done is a factory reset(wipe caches+data) and wipe system. Re-flash a Sense rom and fastboot flash the matching boot.img. Try my rom Viral OTA, just the data/system wipes prior to flashing and it willk get you back up to 100%. Rememer to reboot to bootloader if using TWRP.
long story short i have to send in my phone for repairs i was trying to get rid of my custom rom and install a stock rom but some how i wiped out the entire phone i do however managed to get twrp recovery but can't really do much in there as no files are in my phone and it wont let me side load the stock rom help please?
Ok now dont panic !
Does your phone still have eat least 70% of battery left ? if yes then reboot into the bootloader and relock it and then run the RUU file whitch will return your phone back to stock,and for more detailed info im sry beacuse im currenty on my phone

if your hboot is 1.40 - there is no stock ROM available.
You need to sideload some other custom ROM.

Unlock bootloader
Install TWRP 2.6 etc...
use adb sideload <rom.zip> to sideload the custom ROM
try it a number of times as it takes time to get recognized...
flash the kernel

What is your hboot version?
I hope you have Android SDK installed and running in your system?
I guess I have just run into the same issue. I wasn't able to find any help in the "Device Essentials" thread, unfortunately.
I have no rom. ADB doesnt work when phone is in bootloader or recovery (twrp 2.6.3.0) and I can't mount the usb storage to get the rom onto my phone. I miss the days of my samsung captivate....It was so easy!! Thanks for reading.
I guess the key point here is that I can't sideload anything because adb isnt working in recovery. My hboot is 1.40.

Which version do you have ATT-Telus or International?
Did you try one of the toolkits like Windroid or Hasoons Toolkit. I would use Hasoon2000's first to return device to stock condition, and then try Windroid if that does not work.

did you try and install supersu just for the hell of it?? You may want to install stock recovery, then re-lock bootloader, and then use RUU. This almost always get your device back to stock.:good:

I am going to revert to stock to make sure you can use this. Please just make sure what cid # you have. It should be CWS_001 for ATT Branded.(like mine )

You need to have this stock recovery installed. then relock bootloader, and then run this RUU
this should fix it. if that RUU does not work, try the link to the RUU I gave for parkerdjohnson

thanks so much for the links my brother, I am downloading the RUU links but the stock recovery link doesnt work. do you have another one? or I have the all in one tool kit, do I have the chance to go back to stock recovery by using this toolkit?
