Yes you can go here http://67.228.111.202/shipped/Buzz/ and select the RUU rom you wish to go back to. download and save to ur pc then run the RUU with ur phone connected to the pc via the usb cable.
!!!NOTE IF YOU FLASH AN OFFICIAL FROYO ROM YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET ROOT!!!

Thanx a lot,
but there are many ruu version here and no one is like mine...
is it a problem?
if i do a nandroid, can i restore mine stock rom version after flash a cooked rom?
Thanx again
Which one is yours? You can flash a WWE RUU if you cant find yours in the list.
BTW, It is recommended to take a 1.XX RUU from that site, because 2.XX RUU's are Froyo RUU's, and, you will not be able to root them if you require it in the future (As of now).
As for a Nandroid Restore, if you had taken a Nandroid backup of the Stock ROM after Root, yes, you can restore it back and get back your Stock ROM from a Custom ROM. If not, then flashing the RUU is the only way.

i've not flashed again my buzz but i want to do it and so i've not unrooted it.
i've the stock rom upgraded to 2.22.405.1, so i ask to me if i do a nandroid now before flash another rom, then i can do a restore of it... sorry but firt of all i'm italian an i don't speak a read english very well...
thanx for your patience
Yes, you can restore your phone to the state it was right before you did the nandroid back-up.
Make sure you have enough space on your SD card before doing the back-up, say 500MB or more. And save that back-up to your PC for safe-keeping, it's in the "Clockworkmod" Folder on your SD card.
If your stock ROM (that you are restoring) is a version earlier than your custom ROM, do you need a goldcard?
If you are restoring to an earlier stock ROM to the stcok ROM on your phone, do you need a goldcard?

If I understand you correctly, you are having official 2.22.405 at this moment? If so, you will not be able to take a Nandroid Backup, or, install a Custom ROM, or, go back to a previous ROM, because, all of the above requires root, and, the official 2.XX ROM's cant be rooted as yet. You have lost root when you upgraded to 2.22.405.

No to both. Goldcard is just required for debranding purposes. (If you have taken backups of old ROM's)
I have an htc wildfire from vodafone with android 2.1 but I want to change the voda rom and install the htc official rom. I don't want to unlock I only want to change the vodafone rom with these ugly icons and applications and install the htc rom. So how I make this? I need to root? Only installing the official RUU.exe?

No, you will need a Goldcard to debrand your Wildfire. Just search the forums, there are guides on the same.

So there's no way to install a custom rom. Is there a possibility to do a downgrade of my rom? if i do an hard reset...?

If you are on official 2.2.1, there is nothing you can do at all, except wait, till a solution arrives.

Hi,
I have Vodafone UK's HTC ONE, and it's on 1.28.161.7 version.
I want to have the global stock version, 1.28.401.7, and get OTA updates.
My One is rooted with CWM Touch Recovery, Bootloader Unlocked.
I have read a lot on the Dev forums but only thing I found is how to go back to stock, and I need a DIFFERENT STOCK ROM.
Can you please help me ?
I have the stock odexed ROM + Stock recovery zip files, and the complete all-in-one Toolkit, so just guide me the steps
Thanks in advance !
Tzach Alon.
Flash ARHD would be my answer.

But does ARHD have differences from the stock ROM?
Will I get the official OTA Updates from HTC?

No you won't as it's a rooted phone. You'll need S-OFF and the stock RUU to debrand the phone (neither of which are available yet AFAIK)

Hi EddyOS, long time no speak, not since I moved here from the HOX forums!
Wouldn't flashing ARHD debrand the handset, it'd just mean he can't get OTAs?
You on a Nexus 4 now then?

First, Thanks again !
So if I understand it right, I will need to go through this process:
1) Unroot
2) Re-lock bootloader
3) Flash stock recovery
4) Flash stock RUU (from the toolkit ??)
and that's it ? will I need to flash the ODEXED stock ROM from this thread ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752
And last one for now: If I'll take a Nandroid backup of CWM and unbranded HTC, will it work ?
I mean this one: "M7 CWM Nandroid Backup / CID HTC__001 / 1.28.401.7"
Sorry for all those questions - I have never tried to go back to stock or unbrand my device.. :angel:
Thanks !

Unfortunately that wouldnt work. Your phone will have a branded CID. The OTA update checks the phone for this. So it would see yours isnt HTC_001 and it would fail. You need to wait until S-Off has been found for this phone.

As soon as an OTA is out Mike updates ARHD anyway so he could just flash the new ROM, until S-Off it's the only way of doing it really.
Hopefully S-Off isn't too far away...
Hi, I just had a new HTC ONE, it's CID is ORANG202.
I want to get rid of all orange stuff and bloatware.
I wonder wheter or not i can flash a HTC_EUROPE ROm in it.
Of course due to different CIDs and the fact t'here s no possibilit of changing CID os SOFFing the device I know i can't use htc ruu.
Anyway, I did unlock bootloader and Installed CWM and rooted the device. Can I flash now a original HTC europ (not orange rom) via CWM. I know i won t get OTA update, but who cares, as soon as a new update will be available, i'll find the rom here.
nd how to flash with CWM given the fact that the device has no SDCARD ? I always did that from SDs in the past.
Thanks for any answers.
Wish a Good day to everyone.

Yeah you can. Download it onto your phone, go to CWM, install zip, install zip from sdcard (internal) and choose your download folder where it will be.

Thanks for answer. And this is coing to work despite of the fact my phone is orang202 and not the rom ? Which means I m looking forward to see the pure android rom without sense.
Without sense makes sense
And, by the way, still no way to change cid ?
I m sure changing cid would allow me to use ruu s from HTC an ever get OTA...

Hi guys. I shifted from my old Sony Xperia Sola to the beautiful HTC One and I'm loving it. The phone was gifted to me and is from from Singapore (or perhaps bought in one of those countries around there). The problem is that I'm just not getting the Android 4.2.2 update (OTA or software). Here's what I intend to do:
- Download International HTC One Andorid 4.2.2 Stock ROM
- Boot into HTC One stock recovery
- Flash Android 4.2.2 Stock on my HTC One
Questions:
1. Do I need to unlock my bootloader for this? From my experience with Sony, I shouldn't need to do so. For Sony phones there's FTF, for HTC phones there's (what? Is it RUU files?)?
2. Can I make this update on stock ROM?
3. Can I install CWM without unlocking bootloader and ROOT my phone as well?
Would really appreciate some help, just links to the respective threads and I'll take it from there.
Thanks!
You need unlocked boatloader for custom recovery , root , flashing , if I were you I'd fist s-off then do the following.

When you say you want to flash stock ROM, do you actually mean official 4.2.2 or are you talking about a custom Stock ROM like ARHD? ... If you want to flash a custom ROM you will need a custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM. If you want to flash an RUU then you will need to be S-Off to flash anything other than the one meant for the region the phone came from.
Your bootloader needs to be unlocked to flash custom recovery, also, if you decide to flash something like ARHD which is the best custom ROM IMO (and is almost completely stock but with a few improvements) then it already has root built into the ROM. Just unlock your bootloader, install custom recovery usng fastboot and then flash a ROM using CWM or TWRP, whichever you install.

My phone software (.407) belongs to the India region. And I want to flash the official Android 4.2.2 ROM for the Indian HTC One version.

Alternatively, I'm considering flashing ARHD. Doesn't matter if I'm using an Indian region variant right? (GSM)
So I need to:
- Unlock the bootloader
- Install Recovery
- Flash ROM
That's it correct? I lose all the information in my internal storage or it stays? (I mean in the 32GB internal storage)
Also, can I lock bootloader and go back to official ROM at any stage in the future?

Yep, unlock your bootloader which will wipe your internal storage so backup to your pc first if there's things you want to keep. Install a custom recovery using fastboot and then you can just flash any ROM, ARHD is a very good choice btw lol.
If you want to return to stock then check the second thread in my previous post, but yes, you can flash a stock ROM like in the thread I mentioned, install a stock recovery, re-lock your bootloader and then you should be good to go as far as OTA updates etc.
This is assuming you are S-On btw, S-Off requires different steps for what I mentioned and I am not familiar with that way at all as I'm S-On. What I mentioned above is exactly what I did when I reverted to stock to receive the recent 4.2.2 update in the UK
I don't know which files you need to restore to stock as the thread is for the European version of the One and I don't know how your version differs but someone will be able to advise you more on that . The process is the same though if you are S-On, I'm just not 100% sure what custom ROM or stock ROM you would need for your variant of the ONE so best let somebody more knowledgeable take over from here lol
Good luck.
Phew. S-On S-Off, Sony phones are a hell lot simpler! Thanks a ton!

Hi, I'm new here. I need help restoring my HTC One back to the stock ROM. It is with virgin mobile in Canada. I'm trying to unlock my phone from virgin but having trouble and figure it can be from being on a stock ROM.
I have been reading for about an hour and searching for the stock RUU. Before I forget, I'm running OMNI ROM on android 4.4.2 and have CWM recovery installed.
Anyways back to topic. I couldn't find any RUU's for my device but read on here that you can restore using a nandroid backup if you can find one. Now me and my brother both got an HTC One at the same time but I went through so many ROMs and customizing it. I started with CWM and made a back up of the stock rom but kept getting errors with some ROMs so switched to TWRP and couldn't use it anymore. With android 4.4 I needed to go back to CWM but in some point when tesering ROMs I only had 3GB free of space so did a wipe and fresh install so I don't think that the original back up is still there somewhere.
Anyways. I have my brothers HTC One here and that's stock. Nothing modified what so ever. Can I make a nandroid back up or use a tool to extract the firmware from his phone and somehow use it to restore my phone back to stock, unroot, relock boot loader and get rid of the *tampered* flag in fast boot?
The phones still on contract, only had it for like 4 months and thinking of giving it back and getting an upgrade to the One Max or when the One 2 comes out but I don't think Virgin mobile will allow me to since the phones been tampered with.
Hi. I have created a Canadian stock thread. See of it helps. It is linked in my signature
