Download it from the original ROM thread and flash it (same way you flashed the UK rom).

and after that restore stock spl from the hard-spl thread to have it completely stock again (you need that for example if you want to return it for warranty). If you want to flash another rom again someday, you can leave hard-spl untouched.
Hi guys,

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 was using HTC One with Android Revolution and I would like to go back to stock.
unfortunately I have lost my nandroid and radio back ups (updated radio to latest one)
I was able to get nandroid backup from xda (thank you)
and restore it. however when I try to OTA update or factory reset it says security warning in bootloader
researching through google I realized that updated radio prevents me from doing OTA update and factory reset.
Is it possible to get a radio back up for bell or does anyone know how to make it work?
Thank you!

YA. I tried it but it doesn't work since the radio is different.

I probably cant go back to stock anymore.

I'm using bell now so I'll try and get a back up if I get around to it tonight (sorry I have a bit of a to-do list). Also I don't get LTE anywhere since I rooted so I'm not sure if mine is truly stock (i've never flashed radios on this device)
I also have a Bell I find a backup of the Rom the Bell.
I kept in case. Here:

boot loader security warning <-- no this is due to the installation of a recovery.
Sorry I do not have RUU, I would love to have too, however it is always practical.

You did the right things, you have remove the root?
Maybe reflash the bootloader with fastboot it Will Be removed warning but I'm not sure but there is no danger.
Why in fact put you in the stock?
haha im a complete noob... does anyone have a how to do all of this.... all i know is you have to relock the phone and download the ota but i cant seem to do it lol any of you in toronto?

It's only showing when I try to OTA or factory reset or ruu.
Tried replacing downloader recoveries etc still no luck and I have come to conclusion that the radio might be the problem.
Hope. The savior guy upload his stock radio now... T.T

It is written in your bootloader: RELOCKED, Security warning
Is that correct?

This is what i said , The warning appears when installing a recovery and radio did not report on this.
I do not think that HTC refuses because it is locked again ..
but why are you back the phone??

I just wanna feel the stock feel due to unstableness of customs.
Haha not a biggie.
However I refreshed recovery.omg from android backup and still no luck.
I restored the android backup again and still security warning blocks me.
Think I should stay with custom Rom again lol
Thanks for the replies thou.
Hope I get the stock radio later
Customs? lol he does not care about that!
Hi, I'm new to Sony flashing although i've done too much on HTC.
I know how to root the .157 rom. I wanna know what next after that ? how do i proceed for installing the rom?
what is with the TA or DRM backup. I read that bravia wont work? some ideas on it pls.
And can i unlock bootloader on this rom ? Is it necessary?
Can i get back to the stock rom if i ever have to with regular OTA?
Thanks,

Long story short, sent my phone away for warranty repair and it came back with 4.2.2 flashed on it. Never rooted it or modded it in any way. I wanted to update it back to 4.3 and from there eventually back to 5.1, however, the phone says that it's up to date - same thing with PC Companion. Tried to repair it via PCC and I also did a factory reset on it, both to no avail.
Is there any way to force the OTA update(unless I have to wait for X days) or is rooting and flashing the only way out of this? C6093, build 14.1.G.1.534, cust. no. 1276-1193.
Thanks in advance.

I am on mobile at the moment and hope
my search went correct. then you are on a branded swedish firmware from tele2.
Where are you from and what firmware was on your phone before you gave it to repair?
You can flash any firmware you want with the help of flash tool app.

Thanks for the flashtool tip, I unlocked the bootloader and used Sony's Emma flashtool to flash it back to 5.1.1.

You didn't have to unlock your bootloader to flash a firmware to your phone!
Did you backup your ta partition because unlocking your bootloader means you will loose your DRM keys?
