[Q] Vivid Leaked ICS to Official ICS - HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity

I upgraded my phone using the leaked ICS build that hit a little bit before the final one was released. I would like to get my phone updated to the official ICS build. I was looking through GSLEON's thread in the dev forum and he mentions:
GSLEON3 said:
The absolute safest way to update to ICS is to relock your device & return it to as close to stock as you can get it. Relocked you can flash the leaked GB AT&T rom in football's thread.

GSLEON3 said:
Make sure that if you have a custom recovery that is is updated & double check that it is. Write the version numbers down to confirm, both before & after.
There was an early recovery that could not (CANNOT) be overwritten without flashing a modified PH39IMG file first, then flashing stock or new modified recovery.
If you update with your device with that original recovery, you may be very sorry.

I'm pretty sure this applies to me, here's my information:

My problem with this is two-fold:
1. I'm not sure where to get the specially modified ph39img
2. I'm really nervous because I like my phone a lot!
Any help you can offer would be really appreciated!
Here's a screenshot of my homescreen because I accidentally took one while getting it out of the case!

Well firstly the RUU your referring to is for official gingerbread. You dont need to flash the modified file unless you have the old recovery so thats un needed. Use this official RUU link http://dl3.htc.com/application/htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_US.exe to flash your phone to the official ics build.

Thanks for the heads up, sorry for misinterpreting things. I'll give this a go when I get off work!

Looks like it worked! Thanks again

TWRP OK?
I have done some research on this and have found that I can get s-off by flashing a RUU rom. The thing is is that I have to have an updated recovery. Right NOw i have the TWRP 2.4.4.0 and wondering if Im good to flash the RUU or if i need to return to stock recovery.
I dont mind losing root as I can re root it.

Try it again but you have to use original RUU ICS for your device before following these steps

need to flash recovery to stock recovery/ current recovery could brick phone whjen flashing stock RUU .IMG ROM
Not positive that i have the recovery that makes brick sandwich, becasue there is a old recovery that does not allow certain system files to fetch the files needed to install RUU.

Found some more research with the borked ROm which seems to turn s-off. The rom is compiled from a stock ruu so im thinking I can still flash this Unlock_code.bin and get me unlocked with this awesome rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2171741
all thanks goes to homeslice976 and please dont beat me up for posting your link as I am looking for easier ways to get this phone unlocked so i can activate it on tmobile.
It seems that I have found an alternative to having the bootloader unlocked and the s-off to be able to change the radio to tmobile with Unlock_code.bin on the stock RUU img
I have since flashed the WXC recovery pretty awesome wildchild, great work!

I'm having a similar problem, but i just dont find the right ICS RUU to flash it seems.
I live in austria, have the htc velocity 4g, with 2.3.7 gingerbread.
Bootloader tells me:
*** UNLOCKED ***
HOLIDAY PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.85.0023
eMMC-boot
Feb 1 2012,01:02:37
what i did for now:
i unlocked the bootloader (with htcdev), put on the twrp-recovery (2.4.4.0) (with hasoons-tool) and also tried wcxrecovery.img (for BoRKed)
wiped it clear, installed the cm10 [cm-10-20130310-NIGHTLY-holiday] and gapps / later BoRKed
since i am s-on i ran the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" command.
And the result is the reboot-cycle (cyanogenmod10 - with freezing short after the pin-code / permanently rebooting with BoRKed).
I read through the forums and found out that i need a newer hboot (ICS) to be able to install Jellybean ROMS.
as mentioned before, i think that i should lock my bootload and flash the right ICS RUU like told in the vivid-developers-forum.
i tried out the htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_US.exe but it told me [error130] wrong model, so i couldnt finish the RUU.
the wire-trick for s-off is a little bit scary to me, so i didnt try that for the time being.
so, for the time being i am a little bit out of clues and would be very glad if somebody could help me out with the right version of the RUU i should flash (and where i could get it) or am i completely off track here?
thnx, joe
Don't you flash the boot.IMG before you flash the ROM?

the step-by-step written guide from hasoon2000 (link) tells me to do it after i installed the ROM.
Now go back and press install. Go to the folder where the ROM you downloaded, is located in. Select the ROM and slide the screen to flash it. After it flashes, press the back button. Press Reboot and Reboot into bootloader. Open the ROM you downloaded from your computer. You should see boot.img. Extract it to your computer. Open my toolkit and press Flash a Kernel. Locate the boot.img and it will flash it.
After it flashes, press reboot from the phone.
Congrats! Enjoy your fully working or borked ROM! Remember, DO NOT ASK FOR ETAs, DO NOT BUG/PM A DEV ABOUT UPDATES, and BE RESPECTFUL TO THE DEVELOPERS!

oh, but right now i found it just the other way around.... in the

(Optional) Flash a custom Kernel/Recovery (Three options, I suggest the THIRD)
*ATTENTION* IF FLASHING A KERNEL FOR A NEW ROM YOU WANT, YOU MUST FLASH THE ROM IMMEDIATELY AFTER FLASHING THE KERNEL WITHOUT BOOTING UP, THE KERNEL COMES FIRST. OTHERWISE, YOU MIGHT BOOT LOOP.

i will give it a try, thanks!

kernel flash first and then rom (with trwp-2420 recovery) led to the same boot - freeze - cycle with cyanogenmod10 as described before...
i still think that i have to flash to an ICS RUU first, but i just need a working one (without the 130 model-id error)

The model id error is because you're trying to flash a Vivid RUU to a Velocity. You'll either need to s-off and super CID, then you can run whatever RUU you want, or you need to get the correct RUU for your device. I was pretty sure that 1.85.0023 and 1.85.0025 were bootloaders that came with ICS though. Maybe I'm remembering wrong about that, but I thought that the first ATT leak had .0023 and the official release had .0025
please run this (from fastboot USB) and reply back with the return
fastboot getvar mainver
(I have the Telstra ICS RUU uploading now if that's what you'll need)
Edit: Here is RUU_HOLIDAY_ICS_35_S_Telstra_WWE_3.25.841.4_Radio_3.02.4740.09_34.20.701040.19_release_246698_signed
Also - if you'd like to try this before any of that, it may work as well (others have had success). From fastboot USB:
fastboot erase cache
Now flash recovery, ROM, boot.img (from my experience, it doesn't matter if the boot.img is flashed before or after the ROM, as long as it's flashed BEFORE trying to actually boot the ROM)
(note that if the problem is your bootloader version, this won't work.)

Camo has a ruu index too.. I think in dev thread

mainver: (shows nothing...)
CID: VODAP120
i gave the telstra ruu you uploaded (thank you very much) a try, but it also gave me the model-id-error.
do i have to flash the recovery back (where do i find the stock-recovery? in the backup?), i am always using the twrp242-recovery now.
i tried the steps you wrote down with the same result (boot-cycle).
i think i will have to give the "s-off and super CID" as u mentioned before a try and then use the telstra-ruu. i read that this worked out for some guys in germany. i will do this on saturday, i need to be fully concentrated to do that, not next to work...
thank you very much for now!
One other thing.. you are relocking your bootloader before trying to run the ruu, and you're trying to run the ruu from fastboot?

Restoring HTC ONE to Stock (Vodafone UK)

I've currently got Android Revolution HD 12.1 installed, however I need to return the phone to Vodafone UK Stock, due to returning the phone.
I found this link, which seems to give instructions on restoring the HTC ONE, however apart from downloading the OTA_M7_UL_JB_50_Vodafone_UK.......zip file from here, I'm really not sure which method to follow.
This is the information I have from the Software Information on my phone:
Android version: 4.2.2
Kernel version: 3.4.10-g445d072
Baseband version: 4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01L
Build number: 2.24.401.1.CL211355
I would really appreciate some assistance

If you`re not S-Off you cannot Flasha RUU with a older Hboot. Guess you`re on HBoot 1.54.000 now.

If the bootloader is unlocked but you`re S-On you can flash a custom recovery and roms, you however cannot downgrade or flash a newer Hboot afaik. You can`t do anything with the OTA atm, not even flash a Vodafone CWM recovery i`am afraid.

No mate, you don`t have a Vodafone rom, you have a custom recovery and you would need to lock the bootloader. It is not possible atm, stick with the rom you`re on for now and do not lock bootloader. Wait for revone to modify the bootloader xploit to get S-Off.

I've just gone into Bootloader and it's showing Hboot as 1.44.0000 !!
Would you mind giving me a brief outline on what I should be doing to get my phone back to vodafone stock?y
Many Thanks
Would flashing the Vodafone OTA zip file in recovery be safe or do I need to S-Off the device?
Please can someone advise
Thanks
Wow, you have quite the adventure in front of you my friend if you want to return your phone to a pure stock state. I'll outline the steps and you can do some work and find the guides to complete them. Assuming you're on hboot 1.44 you'll need to go ahead and s-off, you can then remove the tampered flag. After you're s-off you're then going to need to double check you're using a stock unmodified hboot (you should be) and flash the pertinent RUU based on your phone - there are plenty of guides on how to select this. You'll then need to s-on again, google the command "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" to find some information on how to do that.
Basically you've got your work cut out mate, sorry I can't be more help but the process I've mentioned aren't as simple or as safe as unlocking the bootloader. You'll need to put some effort and most importantly care as any one of them can brick your phone. Once you're s-off you've opened up very sensitive partitions which if changed or written to wrongly can instantly brick your phone. As such I'd do a lot of research before you undertake any of these steps, this is just off the top of my head to give you some guidance so I'd also check them, you really can't be too careful when playing around with £500 worth of tech. Good luck!

You cannot do it with an OTA zip... you need a full RUU but unfortunately there doesn't seem to be one available for Vodafone UK.
This one seems to be the closest one for you.... it's stock HTC Europe. I don't think at this time that returning to stock Vodafone is a possibility.
If you're sending it back for repair or replacement you could take a chance on sending it as it is.

Thank you for replying.
I've run that RUU from the link you provided and it stated that it's updating from 1.29.161.11 to 1.28.401.7, however an Error [131] message appeared stating 'Customer ID Error'.
Any ideas?

Ok... you need to change that ID in the phone.
Reboot the phone to bootloader then fastboot and connect to pc then from your ADB directory on PC issue the command "fastboot oem writecid HTC__001" this will then give you the right ID for the RUU.
Note it's HTC__001.... 2 underscores !

Q: O2 UK Stock Bootloader/Rom/RUU -

Hello all...
I recently got an HTC One and decided to root it but now I am unable to get the 4.2.2 update.
Ive tried to find a way to revert back to stock but so far no luck.
I've only been able to get it back via a factory reset but the Team Win Recovery Project
and bootloader is still present and halts the 4.2.2 update.
phone details are...
Android version : 4.1.2
HTC Sense Version : 5.0
Software Version : 1.29.206.16 CL175272
HTC SDK API Level : 5.12
baseband 4a.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01L
CID is o2__001
Is there an RUU I can use to revert it back to stock?
Ive looked around but couldn't find an appropriate RUU
Only thing I have found is the OTA_M7_UL_JB_50_O2_UK_1.29.206.11-1.27.206.1_P_release_315484
Would using this in TWRP get me back to stock so I can get the 4.2.2 update?
ANY help would be hugely appreciated!!!

I don't know if this would work but...
I have a nandroid backup of my O2 UK One.
This was taken prior to upgrading via OTA to 4.2.2.
Upgrading to 4.2.2 meant my hboot became 1.54.
I now find that if I restore my backup that the touchscreen is completely unresponsive - as far as I can tell because of the hboot upgrade - as any 4.2.2 roms work fine - and a nandroid for O2_002 (Germany) which was prior to 4.2.2 exhibited the same behaviour.
What I'm suggesting is, if you haven't yet upgraded to 4.2.2 yet - then you may be able to use my backup to restore your phone to a state ready to receive the OTA and upgrade to 4.2.2.
Yup - I'm not too sure it would work either! WE could both do with someone with a little more experience to advise us here!
However - I'm willing to provide the backup - but I would ask one favour.
If it works - please, please, make a nandroid backup of the completed update (i.e. O2_001 4.2.2) and let me (and probably quite a few people here) get their hands on it!
As you've probably noticed - O2 variants are not well catered for either here - or indeed anywhere on the net.
If you want to give it a try PM me - and I'll provide a link so you download it and try it out.
hmmm

Well I'm back on O2 (thanks for that Gandalf) instead of the Euro ROM+SuperSID I was using before but still can't get it to update to 4.2.2
Just can't seem to get back the stock bootloader..
even when unrooted, locked(relocked)
played about with various recovery.img like has been suggested, no joy
Is there a way to manually update?
I'm absolute newbie at all this hehehe

You need to be unlocked to flash recovery.
The image supplied contains the original stock recovery.
ADB fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Also - probably flash the boot image
ADB fastboot flash boot boot.img
Relock - OTAs require that.
Also - have you reverted to your original CID?
Keep trying!
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Now I've woken up!
1) Make sure you're unlocked and S-Off
2) Change your CID to O2___001 ( that's 3x "_") - fastboot oem writecid xxxxxxxx
3) Extract boot.img and recovery.img from backup provided.
4) Place these files in the folder on your PC containing your fastboot file.
5) Connect the phone in fastboot usb mode
6) fastboot flash boot boot.img
7) Restart in recovery mode
7a) Personally I'd wipe everything here - data cache etc.
8) Restore backup
9) Restart to bootloader usb mode
10) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
11) fastboot flash oem lock
12) Reboot
You should now hopefully have an HTC One running 4.2.1 with a locked bootloader and the correct CID - OTA should work now.
If anyone reading this knows different or can point out any mistakes or best practises please do so!
well no joy so far
Given up on going back to stock at the moment, having too much fun with modded roms etc.
Tried multiple ways to get back to stock recovery and the strange thing is I can flash between various recover.img/boot.img and swap between the clockworkmod and TWRP but the stock recovery.img seems to not over write during the flash.
Each time it reverts back to the custom recovery with the
"entering recovery... this build is for development...
(I put the superCID back to default but would it be because it detects the S-off ?
from what I've read I didn't think that would matter tbh)
BUT..
I can now swap between the various custom ROMS/Nandroid backups with ease using clockworkmod, Rom manager and CWM Backup manager.
fun times!!!
From what ive learnt, 4.2.2 has a different method of saving backups to a hidden file that hasn't been showing up when ive tried to transfer the back-up to my computer. Even CWM backup manager has failed to pull the hidden backup across and show it as a visual file in pc that I can transfer across..
Maybe this is because of the lack of dev options in the Android Revolution HD-One 2.0 GE ??
and having to just use the HTC One as a "Media device MTP" rather than the usb with debugging ??
(or am i just missing something here?)
But.. have found Android Commander for the pc which has helped a lot with this
and now I'm learning a bit more about the file structuring in Android..
Anyway onwards, upwards and outwards ..
just scraping the surface of the Android os so far...

As I understand it the "dev purposes only" is because you don't have a signed boot.img.
The boot.img I supplied with the backup should be signed - did you copy it from the backup and place in your adb folder to flash prior to restoring the backup? Though, saying that, I thought if you were s-off that the boot.img would be restored as part of the backup. I'm at a loss as to why it doesn't work.
Likewise with the recovery.img.
As regards backup - try reading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34116836 or alternatively use 6.0.3.1 as that older version allows for transfer/restore to/from external sd card via OTG cable - slowly tedious but it works.
Ah well - have fun - I'll have to wait until the devs fix revone to allow s-off with 1.54 so I can revert my hboot and restore my backup in order to achieve stock O2 rom and OTA .

You're welcome.
The reason I want to be able to restore to pure stock is to cover my ass if the phone ever needs to be returned under warranty.
Because of the 1.54 hboot update a lot of people are frustrated because they can't s-off and choose what they wish to do with their phone.
Fortunately - as I still have that nandroid I'll be able to downgrade my hboot, s-off and restore back to prior OTA - as soon as revone is updated.
Guys a little help here as well
I am lost tbh I have android version 4.1.2 software no. 1.29.206.16...bought it from O2 UK. I feel so helpless cz I am new with this stuff and I have no clue how to remove the stupid TWRP thing and unroot my htc one and update it to 4.2.2. Can any one pleasee tell me how to do it...as step by step guide please :'(
I'm stuck...
Hi guys, ive just purchased a rooted UK O2 phone running google play software and was wondering if you had the stock Nandroid or any kind of way to put my phone back to stock?
Ive tried to flash some different boot and recovery .img but now i think i have soft bricked it as the HTC quietly brillant screen appears and then the phone shuts off again

if u used CWM, then what type? i mean did you downloaded CWM for htc one ( International)?
Gandalf, do you have the back up file still? I would be very grateful if I could have a copy.

Hi,
I have an O2 HTC One. CID is 002 I think. I have S-On at the moment, but I am in the process of trying to get S-Off so that I can remove the ***Tampered*** and relocked signs.
I dropped the damn thing down the toilet and need to send it in for repair so I just wanted to make sure they dont get funny about repairing it when I have installed custom rom, because the reason for me sending it back is not due to that!
I have been searching the forums a bit and have found a nandroid backup of O2 rom, so will try that. The Android Rev 51 rom I have at the moment will not let me gain S-Off with rumrunner - always gives me an error. Going to try stock and see what happens.

Follow my guide to return to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082
you can use:
Code:
nandroid [B]O2___102 1.27.206.1[/B]: ro.aa.modelid=PN0710000
ro.aa.cidlist=O2___001,O2___102
if it matches your "fastboot getvar all" (MID & CID)
but first you need to S-Off.

I checked your guide and gained S-OFF with firewater, much quicker and smoother and more importantly, actually successful as opposed to rumrunner!
One more question, the downloads for the backups are fairly slow and Im halfway done downloading M7 CWM Nandroid Backup CID O2 102 3.62.206.1.
Is this version just an updated one vs the 1.27.206.1 2013-03-30 ?
Which should I use?

[Q] HELP!!! Unroot Attempt - Different Fastboot than the normal

Hello All,
Here's my dilemma. I successfully rooted my HTC One (AT&T), and was recently attempting to unroot it. I followed this one here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823. Since I have the AT&T version, I downloaded the first one the list found there, however it wouldn't verify. Next I downloaded the AT&T AIO here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2242635. I was able to use that to figure out according to the info it displayed that I actually needed the Google Edition one from the previous link. I thought that was weird since I dont have the google edition one. But when I fast booted that one, everything appeared to go through with a hitch.....Until it restarted.
After it restarted, I only have a black screen. No start up. I restarted the phone and went into the bootloader and to my surprise, the bootloader was black instead of the normal white.
I've tried several RUUs found here http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=M7
I've tried both the exe and flashing the zip.
I have no clue what to try next. Please XDA, your my only hope.
Are you s-off? I would assume so if you've been able to run multiple RUUs and are getting weird signature results. What mods/roms did you do to your phone before you started all this?
If you can get to bootloader, you're not bricked. You're on the 3.06 GE hboot, but it's not clear why you can't boot up.

You bought it new? Not used from someone else? If so, it was always s-on.
You're on GE firmware somehow. It's possible you have a conflict with your model or carrier ID. Can you run through the exact steps you took when you started trying to unroot? Exactly which files you used and how you ran them?

I received the phone directly from HTC through a sell to earn contest.
Not sure if it matters much but I unlocked the bootloader through HTC Dev.
To unroot,
1) Put phone in bootloader with fastboot
2) Relocked bootloader
3) fastboot oem rebootRUU
4) fastboot flash zip 2.24.401.1.zip (failed)
Used one of the AIOs that stated I had modelid: PN0712000 and cidnum: CWS__001. That when I grabbed the GE version.
5) fastboot flash zip 3.06.1700.10.zip
6) Phone finished, rebooted to a black screen
7) Rebooted into bootloader (Which is now black instead of white)
8) Sad ever since....
Where did you get that GE zip? I'm not sure why the AIO toolkit told you that you were GE but I'd like to check the file.
I suspect the problem is that you have 4.3 GE firmware but a 4.1 OS. Flashing a 4.2 or 4.3 rom might fix.

:facepalm: Just realized the issue.
Your bootloader is locked and you still have custom recovery installed, I'm guessing. Can you select Recovery in bootloader and see what happens? If you're still with TWRP or CWM, that's the issue; you can't boot locked on custom recovery.
You have to unlock again or flash the stock recovery in fastboot. Unlocking will wipe your phone, unfortunately.
Flashing recovery in fastboot is easy if you have the stock recovery file.

You are right about having the recovery option in the bootloader but when I try to select that option, Android shows up with the spinning blue thing in it's stomach, then it dies with a red triangle.

Actually, I think that red triangle is stock recovery. I think to get to the recovery options you press power+vol up on that screen. But it doesn't matter because clearly you're not on custom recovery.
I don't see that 3.06 firmware package in the OP of that thread. Can you find the post you found it attached to?

If you click on the download link in that post for the GE it downloads as that 3.06 firmware..
Also, not sure if it was smart or not but I unlocked the bootloader again to see if it would fix the conflicts you mentioned before. Haven't tried flashing anything yet...

I forgot Mike updated that link.
Okay, I see what you did now. You've essentially upgraded your phone to a GE because the android-info.txt in this official firmware matched your MID and CID; that allowed it to run. The problem is that you can't go back now because you're s-on. Your phone won't boot because you have the GE kernel installed but I assume a Sense rom.
This should be easy to fix. You can flash custom recovery now that you've unlocked, then flash a custom rom. This will get your kernel and rom consistent again and you should be able to boot.
Unrooting is a different story. You can't go back to the stock configuration you had when you got the phone without s-off, which you can't get on 1.54 hboot. I'm afraid you're stuck until AT&T releases 4.3 and you can run a RUU.

So no getting my white bootloader back till next release? That's ok.
However, how do I flash the custom ROM. I got the customer recovery going but I don't know how to get the ROM on there.... Flashing isn't working, still getting signature failures.

You can only run a later firmware. When the signed 4.3 Sense firmware is released (it may be there now), you should be able to run that and get back the stock HTC bootloader.
You need to adb push the rom file onto your phone. There is a tutorial for doing it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986

yea im having problems.........i relocked the bootloader
now i can't boot into any rom , and im trying to flash the stock rom zip via hboot and it is not going through
i tried it on the computer , and it says i can update and it will start the process and go into the boot loader , then it says failed and wants to start a recovery process
any help is appreciated , and i have been reading every post i can find on the issue , as i just did this to my girlfriends phone last night..... this is slighty different as many links are dead , and im having trouble finding everything i need
i was on TWRP recovery , but now the bootloader is locked so i have no recovery at all , im going to try and flash the zip with a locked bootloader now , but i don't anticipate it working
ive pulled the factory RUU's from multiple threads , and i can't get them to install
i've been looking for a zip of the stock rom that i can try and flash on a unlocked bootloader so i can S-off , but i haven't found one i can get to boot
like i said , i tried this one
http://bionicgeeks.the-talk.net/t14-stock-rom-att-ics-de-odexed-zip-aligned-rooted-bloated
i flashed the boot.img from the zip , and then tried to flash the zip file via TWRP and it would not boot at all.... hung at the screen after the beats splash screen
do i need to flash the stock recovery ? i don't have it if so ........ any advice what to try next ?
Ruu allows me to initiate update ...... starts sending to phone then says sending forever
....failed
any help
all the Ruu's i download send for a long time and then fail
i was not on a stock rom before trying any of this
i relocked the bootloader and then i have been trying to run the RUU
no other steps need to be taken ?
i have been searching for a working RUU all day....... none of them will actually install the firmware.... any ideas from anyone on what i should do
maybe some personal help ? im willing to try anything at this point
OK slick.... First... Slow down...
You screwed yourself badly here by just running off the handle...
First... Where in the world is your phone now...
Bootloader status...
Recovery...
Last kernel you fastbooted...
And I swear to whatever you call holy... If you ask what fastboot is...
You can find a working RUU on goo.im

found a zip i was able to flash of the stock rom finally worked from hboot with a locked bootloader
now i can get to s-off
I don't know why you would have such a hard time finding the right RUU. It's still on HTC's website for God's sake.
