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,
So I just got my first smartphone ever yesterday and been pretty much tinkering with it the whole day long (I'm very slow/newbie with these things).
I unlocked the bootloader, got a recovery image TWRP and then rooted it with SuperSU.
Since then I've made a titanium backup and nanodroid backup through TWRP of everything.
And I've been checking out a few custom roms for Jelly Bean 4.2.2 the newest version I believe? And Android Revolution HD 11.0
seemed really nice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023
But I found out that the OTA update Jelly Bean 4.2.2 for HTC One is coming out Really Really soon and I'm currently running 4.1.2. Is it possible for me to receive & install that update without any problems since I haven't flashed any custom roms?
Or will I need to unroot my phone, relock my bootloader and change my recovery image to the stock image? (And if so where can I get the stock image of HTC One?)
I've been on these forums like the whole day and it's very interesting and informative, but it's SO INCREDIBLY MUCH to take in. So I'm really sorry if these questions have been answered before. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
So far I love my phone though! superfast and supersmooth haha.
Well, I think you're one of the few people here who can read AND comprehend what's going on.
ARHD 11.5 is based on the official Taiwan release of Android 4.2.2; 2.24.709.1.
Decide whether you want official ROM release, which, as you meantioned, requires stock ROM and stock recovery to be able to receive and apply the OTA, or, custom ROMs, in which case, just flash the latest ARHD.
yes, inorder to get the OTA installed, need Stock recovery and stock rom.....
Thanks Guys!
Just one more question.
My current firmware is 1.29.707.16.
And the latest ARHD is based on 2.24.401.1.
Would there be any issues if I flashed it? Or is it recommended that I flash that firmware before flashing the rom?
Or do I need another firmware entirely (2.24.709.1), since I'm using the asian/taiwan firmware and not the european one.
My phone has S-off and SuperCID, if that makes any difference in the matter.
Once again thanks for all your help!
Hi guys. I shifted from my old Sony Xperia Sola to the beautiful HTC One and I'm loving it. The phone was gifted to me and is from from Singapore (or perhaps bought in one of those countries around there). The problem is that I'm just not getting the Android 4.2.2 update (OTA or software). Here's what I intend to do:
- Download International HTC One Andorid 4.2.2 Stock ROM
- Boot into HTC One stock recovery
- Flash Android 4.2.2 Stock on my HTC One
Questions:
1. Do I need to unlock my bootloader for this? From my experience with Sony, I shouldn't need to do so. For Sony phones there's FTF, for HTC phones there's (what? Is it RUU files?)?
2. Can I make this update on stock ROM?
3. Can I install CWM without unlocking bootloader and ROOT my phone as well?
Would really appreciate some help, just links to the respective threads and I'll take it from there.
Thanks!
You need unlocked boatloader for custom recovery , root , flashing , if I were you I'd fist s-off then do the following.

When you say you want to flash stock ROM, do you actually mean official 4.2.2 or are you talking about a custom Stock ROM like ARHD? ... If you want to flash a custom ROM you will need a custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM. If you want to flash an RUU then you will need to be S-Off to flash anything other than the one meant for the region the phone came from.
Your bootloader needs to be unlocked to flash custom recovery, also, if you decide to flash something like ARHD which is the best custom ROM IMO (and is almost completely stock but with a few improvements) then it already has root built into the ROM. Just unlock your bootloader, install custom recovery usng fastboot and then flash a ROM using CWM or TWRP, whichever you install.

My phone software (.407) belongs to the India region. And I want to flash the official Android 4.2.2 ROM for the Indian HTC One version.

Alternatively, I'm considering flashing ARHD. Doesn't matter if I'm using an Indian region variant right? (GSM)
So I need to:
- Unlock the bootloader
- Install Recovery
- Flash ROM
That's it correct? I lose all the information in my internal storage or it stays? (I mean in the 32GB internal storage)
Also, can I lock bootloader and go back to official ROM at any stage in the future?

Yep, unlock your bootloader which will wipe your internal storage so backup to your pc first if there's things you want to keep. Install a custom recovery using fastboot and then you can just flash any ROM, ARHD is a very good choice btw lol.
If you want to return to stock then check the second thread in my previous post, but yes, you can flash a stock ROM like in the thread I mentioned, install a stock recovery, re-lock your bootloader and then you should be good to go as far as OTA updates etc.
This is assuming you are S-On btw, S-Off requires different steps for what I mentioned and I am not familiar with that way at all as I'm S-On. What I mentioned above is exactly what I did when I reverted to stock to receive the recent 4.2.2 update in the UK
I don't know which files you need to restore to stock as the thread is for the European version of the One and I don't know how your version differs but someone will be able to advise you more on that . The process is the same though if you are S-On, I'm just not 100% sure what custom ROM or stock ROM you would need for your variant of the ONE so best let somebody more knowledgeable take over from here lol
Good luck.
Phew. S-On S-Off, Sony phones are a hell lot simpler! Thanks a ton!

Personally, I'd wipe my entire phone in TWRP or CWM (OS & Internal Storage), flash a stock ROM like the one from mike1986, either by sideloading it or better still, an OTG and flash drive ... Then just make your own Nandroid backup of a clean deice with stock ROM.
It's very easy and pretty much gives you the same end product as far as a stock backup to return to.
If you can't find a stock ROM that's for your region (I Don't which work or don't for other devices than my own) then hopefully somebody will make you one that is running your version. Currently these are your only options I believe as I haven't seen one RUU or Nandroid on here for 4.2.2.

There are no stock Nandroids posted for 4.2.2 and no RUU's either.
You are not able to downgrade because you are s-on. Since you are s-on and have already applied the 2.24 firmware, the best you can do is install a fresh rom that will run on that base.
What exactly are you trying to do?
So have one, cool im on STOCK

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.

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.
