Hi!
A few days ago I tried to root my mom's Desire 601 (Zara UL). I unlocked the bootloader and make S-OFF, then I updated the firmware to the KitKat's version, but the CID was very strange (ORANG309) so I changed it to HTC__304 and the update was good. The problem is that I'm trying to install a stock-based KitKat ROM but I don't find any stock ROM, so I tried to install InsertCoin but the aroma installer doesn't respond to the taps on the screen.
Please, if someone could help me...
Just try to change the CID to 11111111 and try to reinstall the rom. My phone actually prevented installing all the bloatware that came with a carrier branded phone with that change. Also it's possible that the aroma installer is trying to identify which version is your phone CDMA or GSM, and if you change the identifier maybe it confuse it and make it unable to continue.

Hey Guys I've bought a HTC one x+ in Germany which I rooted time ago. Now I just want to unroot my device to get the original HTC Sense 5 Android 4.2.2 update. My problem is I dont have a any backups nor find any RUU with the following CID version: 1.17.206.1
My HBOOT Version is 1.35 , I also tried some RUU's which was canceled during the update progress since I did not have the right CID version needed.
However I'm going crazy and loosing my hope, please help me how to install the original HTC Rom.:crying::crying:

seems like you have a phone with o2 cid, so your out of luck, there's no ruu that worsk with that version.
but there's a german forum i recently found, where you can find stock backups (including boot.img) and stock recoveries.
http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-cu...04-one-x-plus-ruu-s-fuer-htc-o2-vodafone.html
just put the backup into the right folder on your phone, make sure CWM/TWRP recognizes this backup, then flash stock boot.img in fastboot, restore stock backup in your recovery, flash stock recovery in fastboot and finally relock bootloader.
then your phone should be back to stock software.
thank you so far. another problem is I somewhere I have to delete Superuser and relock my bootloader to flash the stock rom. Thats why I deleted Superuser and locked my bootloader again. My question is now can I still flash to stock rom or do I have unlock bootloader again ?

you probably need to unlock your phone again.
as soon as you restored the stock backup, everything you had on your phone except internal storage will be replaced by stock software, all settings will be reset, all userdata will be wiped!!!
so better backup/copy everything you need to your computer before you restore that backup.
Hi!
I recently got an HTC Desire X, my first Android phone, and I decided to try CyanogenMod. However, I ended up with a bricked (turn on, HTC logo, carrier logo, HTC logo, freeze) phone, so now all I'd love is to get the stock ROM back.
Here's what I did:
1. Unlocked my bootloader following the instructions on htcdev.com
2. Installed CWM recovery
3. Followed the instructions for CM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2337389), rebooted
4. Cursed a lot
The problem is, I didn't check my HBOOT version, or my CID - being new to all this, I didn't even realize I should have - and they're the main problem.
The stock ROM I found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239511) requires HBOOT 1.25.0002 (Mine is 1.24.0000).
Other ways I found were for specific CIDs I don't have - my CID is T-MOB004 (I got this phone from a Czech carrier, and I thought the customization goes only skin deep - guess not).
I have no idea what to do now, and I'd love if anybody could be of any help. Thank you!
I'm not at a computer so I can't give links. But search for thr ICS nandroid backup thread in general. There are stock backups for your hboot there
Does the different CID not matter, then?
I'm sorry, but it looks like the links to the TMOB backup are down atm. So you won't be able to return to stock. What you can do, however, is flashing an ICS Sense ROM (like ShadowDX or similar) along with the correct boot.img. Also, you could try a JB ROM of your choice together with Infinity kernel (it's the only JB sense kernel fitting in ICS hboot). That kernel can be found here.
I was just about to post how flashing a correct hboot ROM didn't work, but then it booted up as it should, yay. I suppose that was all there was to it, to flash a correct ROM
I'll make back-ups from now on, thanks!
Please i'm desperately in need of assistance. I tried to root hy htc one xl. After unlocking bootloader with the instructions from htcdev.com website, I tried to root it with insecurebootandboot method. The phone restarted after that and started showing some red text about copywrite. I tried to fix it by flashing a custom rom and now when I switch on the phone, it just shows the htc logo and switches off. Please any help will be greatly appreciated but keep it as simple as possible as I am still a newbie
Pretty sure the red text is normal after the unlock. For the rom flash, did you also flash the boot.img via fastboot? I am certain that would have been in the instructions for installation of the rom, as it is standard for 99% of HTC Dev unlocked phones.
Also, which HTC One XL do you have? Is it from a particular region or carrier as that can be important to which files are needed to fix it. And what update was it on?
Yes I flashed it via fastboot and its an unlocked htc one xl, not attached to any carrier. Its running on stock android 4.1
I almost cannot believe how many different ROMs I've tried to flash after wiping out my original ROM.
Bootloader unlocked and rooted I managaged to relock the bootloader while trying to fastboot flash a stock ROM, which also failed.
Beleive it or not, I've have found a couple that will boot up with my Sprint HTC One Max . I was able to re-unlock the bootloader, flash a new rom and even recover user data I had backed up to my PC via adb backup.
All this for not, as I still cannot find a Sense ROM that will flash on my device and allow me to unnlock the Sim via Sim Unlock Helper.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

I recall reading somewhere that the Unlock Sim Helper should work on Sense 4.1.2 ROM. ????
Greetings,
I moved your thread to the correct forum (hopefully) for you to get the help you need.
Thanks,

RUU back to anything pre-4.4 and it should work. afaik you need a lower hboot/radio version
Hi everyone.
I bought a used HTc Rhyme which has some custom ROM flashed with cid HTCCN701. (I am guessing its custom because it has application I have never seen on a standard Htc stock Rom, plus it doesn't have Google Play either).
I actually want to flash a standard stock/official ROM on this phone, and so far I can only find one ROM with this cid at tsar3000
But the problem is that the phone's current rom version is 2.12.1400.1 and the available rom version is 1.42.1400.6, which is an older version so naturally when i try to flash it gives me and error of older hboot.
So the problems are,
-Getting a newer rom version, which i can't find.
-Get s-off / super cid so that I can flash any Rom, but I can't find a way to do that.
I am stuck here and don't know what to do. I have rooted the phone and unlocked its boot loader but that's it. Please tell me a solution to this problem. What should i do? Thanks
