Hello every one
I'm a noob in HTC world.. I always had Samsung devices.. So excuse my silly questions
I was trying to find the correct RUU for my handset I already search this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2207874
But I couldn't or to be more specific don't know how to choose the correct RUU
This is my info which I get from CID Getter
CID HTC_J15.. MID: PN0711000.. currently running 1.29.401.17
If more info is needed I will provide them
I found this post # 929
- Can this file serve as RUU for my device if yes which file should I use the "Backup CWM" or the "Image"
- If I use this will it consider stock rom so I can receive OTA in the future
- What is the difference between RUU with extension of .exe or .zip.. is there is advantage or disadvantage to either one of them
- If this one can't serve as RUU how I can extract the RUU from my device
your help is greatly appreciated
Nobody wants to help!!
Ok at least can someone plz tell me what things I should looking for in RUU to know if it's compatible with my device or not
x.xx.401.x and m7u seems doesn't match.
did u buy your device brand new?
ya it was new, it's a MEA 3g version
Does the RUU have to match my CID, I found RUU match my firmware but with different CID

Hi,
The RUU HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 is best for UK. Install this RUU from the boot loader and change the CID of your phone to HTC_001 if it's on a different carrier. The OTA update works on this RUU and will update it to 1.29XXXXX.

Are you sure? I briefly tried to restore to stock using this, and others, all I got was an error when it tried to flash ... Wouldn't let me install because the version is older than the current UK Sim Free version I'm on ... I might be wrong as I know jack **** about S-Off and changing CID's etc but I know that on my UK Sim Free One, I couldn't restore from any of the RUU's available currently as there wasn't one that matched my version.
I'm on 1.29.401.13 btw ... Oh, still no update btw to 4.2.2 lol

Is your device on s-off and is the bootloader unlocked. Your device has to have s-off before you can successfully flash any version of any stock ruu . You will need to change the Cid as well to 11111111 before you can flash any version.
Mine was branded from 3 uk. After setting the device to s-off using instructions from the XDA forum, the bootloader was also unlocked. I didnt need to go through HTC to unlock the bootloader.
I downloaded the european wwe version and the asia wwe versions of the RUU , changed the CID from H3G_001 to 11111111 for all versions and was able to flash these roms to the phone . It even lets you flash a lower version. I then changed the CID FROM 11111111 to HTC_001 for europe and was able to download OTA updates. I even flashed the Asia version and this worked as well with the asia wwe cid.you can only flash these suceessfully if the device is s-off, bootloader unlocked and cid changed to the universal id which is 11111111. Instructiions can be found on this forum.

You don't need to s-off to downgrade you can use the toolbox software to run mainver error check (needs root) to trick the phone into thinking its on 1.00 of hoot then you can downgrade with the RUU.

Hello there
These are the current stats of my device:
ROM: TrickDroid 7.5.0
CID: superCID 11111111
S-OFF
Recovery: TWRP 2.5.0
Bootloader: Unlocked
If I want to flash a RUU, I understand that just about ANY RUU will work because I have Super CID, but I want to know if there certain prerequists to flashing a RUU? Like for instance would I have to relock bootloader, set it to S-ON, flash stock recovery first, etc?
I'll probably be flashing either one of those:
RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.29.707.3_R_Radio_4A .14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_311678_signed.exe
RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13. 3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe
Thanks

You should be able to flash the ruu the way you are. The only differences between your phone and mine when I flashed the brightstar ruu is the Rom I was on and I had relocked my bootloader. S-off will be retained after the flash but twrp will be replaced with the stock recovery. If it fails to flash you can try it again after relocking the bootloader but I don't think it's necessary.
Thank you very much. I won't need the bootloader to be unlocked anyhow in order to receive OTA updates so I might as well relock it and not flash a custom recovery. I do not need to be S-ON in order to receive OTA updates, right? Just locked bootloader, RUU, stock recovery and the proper CID (like HTC__001, for instance)? And while S-OFF, is changing CID from 111111 to HTC__001 as easy as using one command like
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
?

Your pretty much spot on... Keep in mind that for otas your model id needs to be right for the ruu you flash as well as the cid. For example my phone is a US AT&T model has the same model id for the US dev version. So I just needed to be sure to flash the US dev ruu (brightstar) and then set the correct cid (bs_us001) and life is good. Problem is I don't personally know the model id or cid for the ruus you intend to flash. The good news is you can find your model id as well as change it if you need to. The threads to do this are pretty easy to find I'll get a link if you need me too. And to confirm "fastboot oem writecid ********" is what ya need... The asterisks are of course whatever cid you intend to write.

You can find your model id by doing this in this thread if you need to
Thank you so much for your reply. So from what I understood, in order to go back to stock, I'd have to flash a RUU that will be compatible with my Model ID, correct? I do know what my model is, and it is PN0711000 if I am not mistaken (I have it saved on a text file somewhere), but the problem is that I will not know which model ID I need and for which RUU. And by the way, if something ever goes wrong with my device after returning it to full stock but with a different Model ID, wouldn't HTC be able to figure that out and void my warranty? Sorry for the 20 questions I am very new to this. I appreciate your help.

Just replied to you in another thread lol... Um if that's your model id I believe... Emphasis on believe... That matches the Europe ruu and possibly the Asia one too. Maybe someone who knows for sure will pop in here and confirm. As far as the warranty stuff if there is no ruu for you specific carrier then make a fresh nandroid backup of the stock Rom and with s-off can be made like it was when you bought it.
Yeah I just saw your post there, thank you lol. Unfortunately I was stupid enough not to make a Nandroid Backup of my stock ROM before I went ahead and flashed a custom one.

There is a listing of the One variants and model numbers here here ..... the model you're looking for will be the UL variant model code 801n
Follow this thread and you can change your model id (MID) to the international version and then install the RUU 1.28.401.7 (http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...13323127-1031113105-release-310878-signedexe/) and then receive the updates via OTA to the latest 2.24.401.1 first CID HTC__001 then change to HTC__Y13 for the last one.

To know your model ID bout in to bootloader and fastboot then connect USB to your PC and run command:
fastboot getvar all
This will give you your CID, MID and main-version numbers. Don't post your iemi or serial numbers

Would that work to change my CID From Optus_001 (stock CID) and super CID it and would that allow sprint roms to work on my phone? its an m7_ul
Wanting to know because there is a sprint MIUI rom from an actual miui dev I want to try and see if It works. Since all CM roms wont work on my device without getting sleep of death.
To install custom rooms you only need to HTCdev unlock, make a stock backup of your existing Rom, install a custom recovery and then flash the custom Rom.
Read this first post carefully a few times then decide if you want to do it:

your modelid (example: PN0710000) must match the RUU version. If non matching modelid will result in error and nothing will be flashed
I have an HTC One M7 (bought in Australia, unlocked), which currently runs cm11. I want to restore it to stock (I know how to s-on, remove tampered, lock bootloader) but I cannot find a suitable RUU. All the RUUs I have found are carrier-specific, and I am looking for an Australia unbranded RUU. Any ideas where I might find one?
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.

If the device is currently s-off do not go s-on and also if its s-off you can flash any RUU with a simple change of the CID number and MID, for quick updates go for something like the developer edition RUU which is unbranded.
