Revert to stock ROM from DFT - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK, I want to revert to stock HD7 ROM. I currently have DFT V1.
Can I go ahead and flash, or do I need to mess about downgrading to Nodo?
Cheers.

If you still have HSPL you can go ahead and flash. The downgrade to NoDo was only required when you were running Mango and had a 4.x or 5.x bootloader. HSPL could not be applied over this hence the requirement to downgrade.
Flash tour stock ROM and then you can remove HSPL if needed.
Good luck.

just like it, only totally different
I also am wanting to flash back to stock Rom from a custom Rom. I would like to restore to my NoDo backup (which hopefully will bring back all my game save), then simply update through Zune. Anybody see any problems with this?
It looks to be somewhat easy to go back to a lower bootloader if I want to go to a custom Rom later.

I believe that you are correct on restoring your backup and regaining all your "saves." it should be just as if you never left.
The down-grade process is fairly easy and quick.

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.

Deepshinning back to Stock ATT

Hi Guys hoping someone can help me out here. I have a HD7 S (ATT) version phone. I sold it and the buyer wants me to return it to stock as he isn't that technical. I used the att cingular rom posted by answer, but when I try to flash it I receive an error. Is there an issue based on bootloaders? IE: going from Mango back to Nodo?
I would like to get back to stock nodo and then just push the OTA updates before I ship it off. I swear I did this before but the flash isn't playing nice now. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
you might have to flash with gold card to get the boot error fixed.Did the tool you used to update contained a file named restore.bat? Because you can use it to restore to NoDo.
In that case you'll have to move your backup folder to C:\PreMangoState\ and then run the restore.bat file
Hmm, I think you need RSPL and HSPL but I don't know how about branded devices sry.
But Normaly the Stock Rom can Flashed all the time ......

This guide will walk you through the steps of unlocking, rooting, backing up, etc.
Unlocking through HTC Dev will show on the device that it has been unlocked but if you wish to go the whole way and s-off following this guide you can unlock and if you have to relock at a later stage it can be done without leaving any trace.
Before you do any of this though read all you can about unlocking and s-off.

[Q] HTC one orange uk backup

Hi,
I rooted my HTC one phone and flashed new firmware on it but quite foolishly didn't make a back up of my stock rom. My original CID is ORANG001 so the only way to get back to stock it seems is to find a nandroid backup or an RUU of this firmware, is that right? Before I flashed a custom rom I had sense 5.5 and android 4.3. Was wondering if anyone had or knew where I could get a back up of this particular stock firmware? I have found a couple of sites but the links are not working. Does anybody have any other ideas on how I can go back to stock firmware and get OTA updates

Not quite hard to do
But I wanna ask you 1 question- Why do you want to return to stock? Returning to stock is just a limited version of a Sense-based custom ROM.
Why don't you flash a Sense-based custom ROM, which is almost identical to Stock? For example ARHD 52.0
I don't want to return to stock now as I'm enjoying custom roms on my phone. I just want to ability to return to stock for potential warranty issues or if I would like to receive OTA updates from my carrier. I think the software version i need is 2.24.61.1

[Q] Stock OTA Query

I might be bringing up the same topic from the Grave. If yes, then please bare with me.
I currently on the Viper ROM with my HTC M7(European Version).
I want to go back to stock and I kind of figured out on how to do it.
I juts had few queries for you guys:
I need to S-OFF, lock the bootloader and run RUU for Stock as far as I understood. Is that right?
Now, if I am successful with the above step of getting my stock ROM on my M7, will I continue to get all the stock OTA updates from HTC like the 4.4.2 Kitkat update + sense 6? Or will i be required to do a manual update all the time?
Thanks in advance for your support.
Cheers

You will receive OTAs as normal after an ruu and can flash them as long as you stay with stock recovery and do not mess with anything in /system or stock apps in /data (just use titanium backup or similar to freeze the apps instead of removing them).
If you want, make a backup of stock recovery (or find a recovery.img to flash when OTA comes) and use a custom recovery to make a nandroid backup that way you can root and mess with /system and /data as wanted and restore the backup and flash the stock recovery when you update.
