Hi Guys,
I really need some help to get my phone back to stock recovery..how do I do that..i think I messed up big time..i basically have no clue about the terminology involved so is there anyway that I could explain to someone over the phone without hogging a whole thread as to what I did wrong? I have a SPRINT htc one m8 and am pretty sure after unlocking and rooting it with s off safely i messed up because i saw that new OTA update and wanted it and tried locking my bootloader back and s on again and screwed up from then on..long story
my number is 7187493223..i would happily make a donation via paypal etc to any member willing to just help me out,
Thanks
Jason
If you're on a non-HK version M8 your best bet would be to run the 1.54.651.10 RUU. It can be found in the first post of the thread below, along with directions on how to install it. This will unroot your phone and install the stock recovery.

I did flash that HK audio thing onto my phone but its not the HK version,but also what youre recommending is basically if i understand correctly is to basically wipe it clean and install that stock recovery which would take it back to the pre mess it was in,right? i'm sorry if i'm not making any more sense.

Correct. The RUU (ROM Update Utility) will install the stock ROM and the stock recovery. It will also unroot your phone. I recommend downloading & installing HTC Sync to your computer before running the RUU, unless you've already done this. This will install drivers to your computer that may be needed for you to connect your phone and computer together.

Actually, I forgot that you don't have to connect your phone and computer to run the RUU. The process is actually quite simple using the fastboot method. Just make sure you have a good charge on your phone before installing the RUU.

um..i think im doing something wrong...its not doing anything..i extracted the file and moved it to my sd card but its not asking to install anything...
Download Sprint_HTC_One_M8_1.54.651.10_RUU.zip
-extract 0P6BIMG.zip to ext sd card
-boot into bootloader
-make sure hboot is highlighted, press power button
-it will scan your ext_sd card, then ask if you want to start the update
-press volume up & let it do it's thing
whats ext_sd card.. its the same as just the sd card right? it seems to show something in the bootloader but does nothing..am i doing something wrong?

Yes, it's your external SD card. Make sure you don't put the file in a folder, otherwise the bootloader won't find it. If all else fails you can connect your phone and computer and double-click the RUU file on your computer to run it. The RUU will need to be on your computer in order to run it.

when i do it on the phone with hboot/fastboot it says no image or wrong image..could the file be corrupted? its not in any folder,i set it outside the folder as a stand alone but for some reason the phone doesn't do anything with it,like i said,it says wrong image or no image etc..no idea what all that is..
Tell me what to do when i connect the phone and computer..while extracting also it doesn't go all the way,something about archive could be corrupted or damaged etc..

by the way i have s on and am rooted if that makes a difference..
Re-lock your bootloader. Put the RUU on your computer. Connect your phone and computer via USB cable. Reboot to the bootloader. You should see Fastboot USB highlighted in red once the connection is complete. Double-click the RUU file and follow the prompts on your computer.

Yes but I did it twice from two different mirrors and it's the same problem,so I'm guessing the original file is corrupt. :/ Theres no other place to get one is there? I googled the RUU but it's not out there except on here..

Nope, that's the only one. You might send @O.M.J. a PM regarding the issue. He's usually pretty responsive.

We are talking "Legend" here. The article U mentioned was about someone's "Desire" to be a "Legend" And it's about OTA of their FroYo for Desire.
What we have here is RUU not OTA.
Ok I see the difference, I was counfesed because of this, and I qoute from the mentioned article:
"Owners of the HTC Desire and Legend on the Vodafone network have discovered that the “update” to their device is actually a re-branded version of the same OS they had before: Android 2.1."
No biggy
Just installed this, SMS messages bug remains where threads open at the oldest messages (top) rather than the newest (bottom). Soft rooting still works fine as did restoring settings from Titanium backup (although market links have not been restored)
Edit: market links have restored fine, it just took a few hours for it to take effect. So far the only issue Ive come across is the same old SMS bug thats been happening with recent updates
sorry about the cross post, but just wondering if this will work in an unbranded phone.
will it load vodaphone s/w?
Anyone up for rooting this so we can try it out?
To try it out you don't need a root. Just run that RUU, find ROM.zip in your home directory, extract boot.img and system.img from it and flash them via recovery.
Besides it was already told that SMS bug is still there...

Can I just confirm as I haven't yet installed any ROMs before
Do just run the RUU...exe program with phone connected or do I need to perform some other commands as you have stated above?
No, you don't need to connect your phone. Just run this RUU and when its first dialogue pops up, search your home directory for ROM.zip. Copy this ROM.zip elsewhere and then you can close RUU dialogue. You can then browse the contents of ROM.zip and extract boot.img and system.img...

Sorry I still don't understand.. when I run the RUU does it put the ROM in my windows home directory or my Android sd card?
PS I ran the RUU and I got some customer ID Error so I guess I need a goldcard to allow install.
update found rom.zip
1. run RUU and wait for first dialog window
2. search in your userprofile for rom.zip (documents & settings/userid...)
so next I have to find doco on what files I need to copy and where to put them
BTW is there a FAQ on the above procedure?
i have downgraded my phone . But it isnt rooted.
So can i just start the RUU and connect my phone ?
I neither understand the thing with rom.zip. Sorry
as I said I only partially understand the procedure but when you run the RUU.. exe
it will unpack the files in a temporary folder in your "Windows Profile"
I would simply search for rom.zip to find it.
then next step I'm still searching for details ..
as I can I add to this rom in Spanish, just the languages English, Chinese or Japanese.
I mean to change the rom, I've cooked, root, added a2sd, etc, but I must file might bring him in this rom to include other languages?
Greetings
There are my modified roms (minimum basic changes): rooted, busybox, sound bootanimation off, bash, nano, a2sd.

Why would you want to do this?
2.03 is the latest version without the SMS bug, I'd suggest you to wait for Froyo unless you also root and install a 3rd party modified firmwares.
Otherwise, to flash another RUU, you need to make a gold card
Hi..
I decided to make an "EASY TO USE" unroot guide for the HTC Legend..
Here goes..
First..
If you want to unroot to software version 1.31
... download this file and put it in the root of your SD-card..
- This version can easily be rooted again..
If you want to unroot to software version 2.03
... download this file and put it in the root of your SD-card..
- This version will need a downgrade in order to root phone again..
When the wanted file is on your SD-card turn OFF your phone..
EDIT: *** NB: Reported in that this might not work if SD-card is partitioned with ext-partition. If not working try to use a fat32-only ***
Turn the phone ON while holding VOLUME DOWN..
The phone will detect the LEGEIMG.zip file on the SD-card and
ask you to upgrade..
Select YES.. And wait...
This should do the trick....
Nice and simple. Good work m8.
Good guide. Straight to the point. Keep up the good work.
Is there any way to. Convert the rom. Zip with the ruu to legeimg. Zip
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
Yep... extract ROM.zip from RUU and rename it to LEGEIMG.zip.
Hello,
I'm not familiar yet with rooting.
When this procedure is done, will I have a working Legend device ?
Which rom will it be running ?
How could I "upload" CyanogenMod to this rooted legend ?
I've search the web, but I do not get everything yet...
Thank you for your hep !

Can someone help me with this? I keep getting an error. I can't flash the LEGEIMG.zip by reboot & vol dn+power nor by clockwork. Tried downloading the file twice, tried my extracted rom.zip and it just doesn't work.
What else can I do?
Can you post md5 of this zip?
What I did was put the file in the root of the SD Card...
Switch off the Legend and switch it on while having the Volume down button pressed. It flashes automatically.

One of two problems..
1) You did not put the download in the ROOT of your sd- card or
2) you have renamed the file..
One of these things are causing the error..
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
I'm 100% sure I haven't renamed the file and it's in the root (astro file manager shows it in /mnt/sdcard). If ROOT means sdcard top folder then there it is.
edit: clockwork says "Can't open /sdcard/LEGEIMG.zip (bad)". Hence the request for md5 - but I doubt triple download would cause some inconsistency in file.
I got CID incorect error, what does it mean?

Requirements:
S-Off
Any Web Browser on any OS
Steps:
1. Fill in the form located here. Thanks to sieempi for all the hard work. Don't forget to make a generous donation to him.
2. The Config.dat file will have been emailed to you. Download the attachment and put it into the root of the external SD card or internal storage of your device depending on what works for you.
3. Simpy boot into the Bootloader and navigate to the SIMLOCK option with the volume keys and select it by pressing power. The output should look similar to this:
Code:
fat32 init ok
reading config.dat
read mccmnc file success
open CID file fail
get device IMEI success
IMEI checking...PASS!
4. Congratulations, your device should now be SIM Unlocked. You'll need a SIM Card from another carrier to verify.
Works like a charm. Thanks for the heads up!

It's on the SD card, but nothing's working...is it possible because of partitioned SD card?
New SD card, worked. But T-Mobile SIM still asks for unlock code.
im going to try on a fresh SD card when i get home
ok so it worked with another SD card on the first try ... weird but cool
so does anyone know if this will persist through updates , rom flashing , and or upgrades
and is it safe to run again at a later date....
how serious is the change of what was done ??
just curious if this can hurt in any way
It will stay unlocked after flashing roms.

I have rooted HTC one google edition. I received a new official updated that I installed through twrp, after installation it told me that root access was lost and i could restore it by pressing restore root access option. Since then i cant get past the Google screen. My phone basically gets to Google screen then restarts, gets to Google screen and restarts. I tried factory reset, did not help. What should i do?
If you have a Google Edition rooted phone, it shouldnt have installed the OTA with a custom recovery installed. You'll likely have to use the RUU in the original dev thread. you'll want to backup your sdcard via adb cause the RUU will wipe everything.

what does device manager say?
if it says something like QHUSB_Download mode, you're screwed, get it swapped out
if you can get to the bootloader, you can probably install a recovery again and install a stock 4.2.2 or 4.3 rom and get back up and running.

I can get to bootloader and i can also get to twrp. But the thing is i cant download anything to my phone because i cant access it through my computer, i hear the sound when i plug it in but i dont see the device in "My Computer"
Learned the hard way.
Your phone is not recognized, because you haven't updated your ADB and Fastboot files on your computer. Once, you do that.. You will need to download hboot 1.44 that gunnyman has in the 4.3 thread via RUU. After that is done find yourself, the RUU from whatever provider your phone is running under.. Ex: Dev or Tmo or ATT etc etc.. That should fix you up. I did this to my device once messing around with it.. But my problem also was with a locked boot loader that had 4 exclamation triangles on each corner.. No boot screen for start up even came up.. Just back to the boot loader of doom.

then all is not lost. you're having either a driver issue or trying to use a usb 3 port or something like that.
boot to recovery
type adb devices
if it gives a number you can sideload a ROM.
download this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2390346
it's stock rooted 4.3
sideload it in twrp
start the sideload mode in twrp
type adb sideload then the name of the rom. the rom will push to the phone and then install.

i was just gonna link him to that thread. i think a factory reset *might* get it to boot tho. worth a try.

He obviously has some sort of thing going. It clearly states in his OP, FYI. That he "was" rooted "before" the update. Umm & if he can get into boot loader & TWRP Recovery... He still has a chance.

He also said that he had a GE phone. Totally rootable

you'll need to post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (dont post your imei/sn) so we can tell you how to update. The version shown in your picture isn't necessarily the same version you'll find in bootloader.
And may I add - it would be better if you took a picture of bootloader screen. That way we could have better idea of phone's state. Is the bootloader unlocked, real firmware version, s-on or s-off...
Hi guys, today i managed to get the needed info. Please see the attached pictures. PS; why is the CID 1111111? Does that mean that the phone has been rooted? And s-off?
Thank you guys in advance.

Your phone was messed with. Great thing it's s-off. Someone flashed a new h-boot over old firmware, that's why you can't receive updates.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2316726
Take a look at this thread, download 7.19.401.1 RUU.zip, and flash it, you have all instructions on the thread. That will update your phone to Lollipop

Lol, it cool. Im sorry to bother you with so many questions... BUTT there a 2 versions of 7.19.401.2 the combined and FULL STOCK. The Combined is about 40MB and the FULL STOCK is 500+MB. Do i need to flash the combined or the full stock? I think full stock because i cant understand how a zip of 40MB can flash a new firmware, or im wrong?
So sorry for this noob questions, im used to Samsung where i just need to flash 1 file:silly::silly:

Full stock will give you a fully stock Android, but it will wipe everything from your phone, so you might want to back up your files before doing anything. I always flash full stock, just to be on the safe side. And there's no need to apologize, better to ask if you'rr not sure than ruin your phone, right? [emoji6]

Yeah you are right, normally i don't ask so many questions. I just flash the phone ans see what it will bring me to.
But this is not my phone, it's my brothers in law phone.
Last question, i hope, i read that after flashing full stock zip i need to flash rom, kernel and recovery and that phone wont boot up after the flash. It needs a rom flash.
So what should i do? I'm a bit confused, there is so much information and so many files..

No. Full stock will flash everything. If you have doubts I can send you my old KitKat RUU. You will be able to take updates with it, but it takes over an hour to get all updates. It's your call [emoji4]

You need to do it via HTC fastboot
donkeykong1 said:
You need to flash it in RUU mode. Issue the next command "fastboot oem rebootRUU" without quotation marks obviously. That will put your phone in RUU mode ( black screen with silver HTC logo ). Then fastboot flash zip

Yes i did that, first command was fastboot oem rebootRUU. I tried to open the zip but my pc said it was no possible. Im downloading the zip again. I will try it again in 15min.

Did you try unzipping it before flashing? Because those zips are enrypted and they cannot be extracted

Hi, no i did not tried to extract the zip. But i downloaded it again and i got the same error, 32.
I read somewhere that i need to flash the firmware first and then the rom but i dont have the needed files.
I also tried to flash the combined zip of 40MB and then the 1.6GB zip but i keep getting the error..

Then you definetly need to flash via HTC fastboot. I don't have it, so maybe @alray could help
@donkeykong1
I dont know how but i managed to update the phone.
I downloaded the fastboot of htc site and installed htc sync. Then i pluged the phone in with and without development modus on to instal drivers.
After this i pluged the phone back on in fastboot mode and flashed the zip of 1.6GB. It started right away and installed the android 5.0.2.
Working good till now, so thank you for your help.:sly:
