I'm also in need of the files just like the other person mentioned.
Currenly my HTC One X+ is runnning CM11 nightly build and wanted to flash back to stock.
What version of HBOOT and RADIO do you see in the FASTBOOT menu?
This is the stock recovery with 2.18.401.3:
https://yadi.sk/d/pgAzfBwhT562e
This is the stock 2.18.401.2 rom with inside the stock kernel (boot.img) to flash via fastboot:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7yPonjCRjRrdnNUeDRNXzZyLXM/edit?pli=1
I think that the bootloader must be re-locked for the RUU
I hope it works! I stay tuned for any feedback

I'm writing this as these questions commonly get asked in the development threads, taking them off topic.
S-ON users commonly run into these problems, which are quite simple to solve with the right information.
When your device is S-ON and unlocked via the HTC Method, the boot partition is mounted read-only in recovery mode, which causes these problems flashing custom kernels or custom roms.
a) Flashing a custom kernel through recovery mode breaks wifi:
Android uses the linux kernel, and the wifi drivers are compiled as kernel modules. The kernel modules are located in /system/lib/modules, and the linux kernel is located on the boot partition. When you flash the kernel zip file through recovery, the updated kernel modules get successfully written to the system partition however the linux kernel cannot get written to the boot partition. The result of this is that the kernel now cannot load the wifi kernel modules. This is what causes the WIFI error.
Solution: Download FlashImgGui from the market, and use that to install the kernel. This program can successfully write the new kernel to the boot partition eliminating the mismatch between the kernel and wifi modules.
b) Flashing a custom rom through recovery breaks wifi.
This problem is basically the same as a). The boot partition cannot be written so the kernel that came with the rom isn't written to it. This causes a mismatch between the kernel modules in the custom rom and the kernel.
Solution: You can either flash a custom kernel with FlashImgGui, or extract the boot.img file from the custom rom's zip file and copy to your computer. Then use the fastboot binary to flash the boot.img to the boot partition. This will copy the kernel that is packaged with the rom to your phone, which will fix the mismatch between the kernel and wifi modules.
C) Flashing a custom rom through recovery causes boot loops or the phone hanging at the HTC screen.
Some custom roms need a different initrd.gz file to the standard one. The initrd.gz file is located on the boot partition. When you flash the custom rom through recovery, the boot partition cannot get written and so the new initrd.gz isn't written to it. This is what causes the problems booting.
Solution: Same as above. Extract the boot.img from the zip file and flash with fastboot. This will copy the correct initrd.gz file to your phone and allow the rom to function correctly.
MODS: If you feel this is in the wrong section please move it. I'm only posting here as these questions always pop up in the development threads.
exactly what i have discovered
i can provide the testimony that the above are correct !
THANKS FOR CONFIRMING IT
actually it can be solved by
1. booting into bootloader (or via cmd :adb reboot bootloader)
2. flash boot "cwm.img" <<<name of the cwm file
3. flash via cwm
4. wifi will back on

That method is useful for avoiding the problems in the first place, but its easier to flash the boot.img than flash recovery and reinstall the ROM for users who already have the problem.
doesnt it has any thing to do with the RADIO ???
because my phone came with another radio than the widely used one
and hboot 1.18
and I had tons of problems with wifi with every single rom
so I downgraded it to hboot 1.07 by flashing the EU 1.20 rom which came with the radio used here and achieved s-off using revolutionary
and all wifi problems were gone for good

Absolutely nothing to do with the radio. Your wifi problems were solved once you got S-OFF . S-OFF means the boot partitions is mounted read-write in recovery mode so you do not have any of the problems I listed in the OP.
Where exactly do you flash the boot.img to when you need the custom rom's initrd? I.e. for 'fastboot flash xyz "boot.img"', what's the xyz?

Here's a link to the thread:

Please try the search button next time, it is usually the best place to start here
Two days working and the solution was under my nose!
THANK YOU!
Thanks for the information, but I don't think it's entirely accurate. Those with older phones (that haven't taken updates from HTC) will possibly have the old radio firmware. And if you are S-ON and HBOOT1.5, there's no way to 'get' the new firmware on the phone if you are unlocked.
So you must get the updated radio firmware (1216), put in in the root, relock the phone, and do a bootloader boot to flash the radio firmware. Unlock again, and then you are good to go. I had the 8xx version radio firmware and couldn't run any newer ROMS with working wifi until I got the updated firmware.
Be advised that lock/unlocking wipes your phone.
I followed the instructions but it doesn't work
What I did is:
1) Installed the custom ROM
2) installed the boot.img from fastboot
3) rebooted -> but stuck at htc logo
My friend's EVO 3D GSM has:
HBOOT 1.49.0018
S-ON
Unlocked
Can someone help me??
thanks in advance
if you have unlocked the boot loader of htc desire vc , you cann't firmware flashing with ruu.exe firmware file ,you cann't make firmware flashing by ruu.exe firmware file.

double click ruu. after don't anything and than window + R on you are keyboard %temp% you can find rom zip in temp folder you are copy and extract on you are desktop in fastboot folder you will find .img file .
now you can flash it with fastboot method.
Hi..I have tried to run RUU files of various countries but all the time the operations comes to an end with a "verify signature error"..I have followed the rom.zip creation method and save on the sd card as PK178IMG.zip but in that case the fastboot prompt finds the file and verifies it but then jumps back to the prompt wherein it has the list of options ie hboot..fastboot and all

Hi,to everyone:
so,i'm newb,and i dont leave in the us,and i'm a proud owner of a Droid Dna.
As i dont be on the us,i cant have na OTA update,so i'm stock 1.15
And i have a few questions,help:
1) I'm going to do the Unlock using the Supercid,and do the htcdev process.
flash a new recovery,and install superuser.Correct?
the questions are:
1) Doing the unlock,i can place a ROM even the stock rom (deodexed or other)?
2) The process will be: remove the boot.img from the rom zip file
flash it manually,and them place the rom.zip file on the phone and flash it in recovery.
I think that the rom will not have the new kernel,so i think that i have to install it manually,will i be unrooted?
In this Post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2080200) it says that is the new update Rom,but does it have the original kernel,or i have to install it via recovery or manually??
Thanks for all the help you guys can give me!

1, I believe the answer is yes
2. In most cases, the boot.img is provided along with the rom as a separate download so no need of extraction. It has to be flashed using adb from your pc -usually right before you install the rom.
3. If you allow the ota update before you root you can not root, If after you've rooted and bootloader is unlocked, it will download but won't install-at least it did not for me. If you relock the bootloader and flash a to stock, I heard you can get the ota but you will not be able to unlock it again. Not sure on that part. Rumor says that this will get fixed soon but as f right now no.
Thanks

you are not supposed to extract the zip file, just open the file and copy out the boot.img for manually flashing before you install the rom, or after, your choice!
make sure you have twrp or cwm installed and you have unlocked your boot loader
the problem here is already the boot image file is always incorrect won't come out
Hello everybody,
I would like to share my problem on my htc desire 601 zara_ul.
I just did the unlock bootloader / recovery / and root steps but i'm facing another issues.
I tried to install the InsertCoin from this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/des...om-insertcoin-3-0-6-zaraul-m7-port-5-t2819869
And sometimes the Aroma installer goes until the end successfully, and sometimes my phone just reboots half the installation.
And when it ends successfully , when i reboot, i just can't boot , i'm still stuck on the green htc logo on the white background.
Does anybody have an idea of what i'm doing wrong and how i could have a functional phone asap ? ( can't find/undersand how to restore a ruu for this phone ...)
I have no access to my sd card because i have no devices to read it.
Just tell me if you need more informations , and sorry for the form of the text, french is my native language.
Thx for the replies.
You need to flash boot.img from insertcoin rom *.zip.
Also you can mount you SD card as USB-Storage from your Recovery (if its CWM - Mount and Storage > Mount usb storage, if TWRP - Mount>Mount USB storage).
Thanks for your answer,
I tried to extract the boot.img from zip.
Then did a fastboot flash boot boot.img successfully
But when i did fastboot reboot it got stuck.
I got the same results.
I got this recovery : http://forum.xda-developers.com/des...recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-touch-recovery-t2804520

Or use this modified updater-script for 2.20 hboot

Here is modified rom

Use recovery for Jelly Bean
Tried to do that with the updater script but with no luck.
TWRP says md5 check fail.
And philz touch says Finding update, opening update, installing update , then installation aborted.
Thx for your help by the way.
Any suggestion on what i'm doing wrong ?
