[Q] How to put phone back to stock

Hi,
Ok so I read a few threads on how to put phone back to stock as I'm sending it back. However a few questions haven't been cleared with me.
1- How do I do it. My CID is HTC_001. So I was thinking to flash that NAND Stock ROM on here and then install stock recovery and relock bootloader?
But when I love bootloader won't that wipe the phone so wouldn't it mess it up badly as this was rooted?
2 - if that worked will it get rid of the tampered image in hboot?
Thanks.
P.s. Ideally I want to get rid of this phone as it isn't really for me. I don't find it my kind of phone.

I read that. So what about the tampered thing. Will that go, because apparently RUU is the only way to get rid and this isn't the RUU way

Only way to get rid of the tampered bit is to flash stock recovery. HTC said they are putting an ruu for the dev edition on HTC dev soon.

in that thread they say the Tampered tag wont go away, unless what the above poster said works.

In fastboot run this command >fastboot getvar all
This will help you to find which RUU is compatible with your phone... if available naturally!
You will have this kind of informations :

It's true. The Tampered will be there even you flash the stock recovery.
To put back to stock (Developer Edition) before RUU release:
1. If you have stock backup of your phone, then just restore it.
2. Flash the recovery.img in the 1.29.401.12 OTA. This is the only recovery image file I tested that worked. And before you do that, backup all your data in your phone!!! I lost all my data after I flash the recovery, which made no sense.
BTW, I did 1 & 2 then called Let's Talk and requested RMA today.

I don't think it can be done with ADB pull. Instead of flashing a custom recovery, do:
fastboot boot customrecovery.img
Do a backup, this will give you a stock recovery.img in the backup.

I knew fastboot still worked, I used it to flash a custom recovery after updating firmware. Just didn't realised they had stopped us from using it to boot a .img without flashing it.. Thanks

If you read the entire thread which is only one page, its pretty obvious that he is talking about backing up the stock recovery by making a Nandroid backup of it using a custom recovery. Anyway you can't do that since "fastboot boot recovery.img" command which will make the device boot to a custom recovery without flashing it over the stock recovery is now disabled, it only worked on hboot 1.44.
You can extract the stock recovery.img from the ota update zip file that match your firmware version
Or you can also pull the stock recovery from your phone mmcblk0p34 partition if you have S-OFF using this method . Wouldn't recommend trying this unless you really know what you are doing.
If you need help to find your stock recovery just post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (with your imei/serialno removed).

Might be obvious to you but for me who does not get the obvious I have to ask. And also it would defeat the recovering of the stock image when using a custom recovery, that was also why I didn't understand what method he was referring to.

No because "fastboot boot recovery.img" will boot in custom recovery without flashing the custom recovery over the stock recovery.

No need to search is simple as downloading the ota update that match your version (7.19.401.2). Open it and inside you'll find a firmware.zip file. Extract this file and then open it. You'll find a recovery.img file. This one is the stock recovery.

Need help with flashing Nandroid Backup.

Hi all. I am in need of some information. I am returning my M7 to rogers for warranty purposes. Currently it is rooted and s-ff. I am also running a gpe rom. I found a nandroid backup on Htc1guru.com. I followd crushalot's instructions for restoring to stock with an RUU. Everything goes well until I try to enter the second command of ( fastboot flash zip ruu.zip ) but my command window will not allow me to. I have even tried sideloading through twrp but can not get the commands right. Can someone offer me some direction? Thanks.

Do you have a link to your procedure? I would have thought Nandroid restore and RUU reflash are mutually exclusive--accomplishing the same thing by different methods. (Note that a Nandroid restore won't give you the stock recovery partition, and also may not give you a folder called /data/preload, which is wiped during the rooting process (so OTA updates won't work, though you will be on the stock system.))
Also, how does your command window not let you run the fastboot command? Is it because fastboot isn't found? If so, you can navigate to fastboot or fastboot.exe's directory (works on windows only; use the "cd" command), or just add that directory to the PATH variable (windows/linux/mac).

Thanks for the reply fenstre. Here is a link to the proceedure. http://www.htc1guru.com/guides/return-stock-guide/ . I have downloades a Roger's nandroid backup from his site. I have renamed it ruu.zip and placed it in my abd/fastboot folder. When I start to follow the directions for restoring using an RUU everything starts off ok. I start with the command prompt and enter "fastboot oem rebootRUU" and I get the silver htc logo on my phone's screen. I then enter "fastboot flash zip ruu.zip". It says you have to enter it again because the first only prepares the flash. I cannot enter it again on my prompt window.

I was just curious. I just got a replacement M7 from Rogers. Would it be possible to make a nandroid backup from the New phone and flash it on the one going back? Just a thought. I just need the one going back to have the Rogers splash scree and sense so it looks stock. Thanks.

A Nandroid backup is just that, a Nandroid backup. The clue is in the name... It has to be restored from your custom recovery," well the custom recovery for which the backup was made ".
You cannot run it through fastbootRUU.

Did you check the MD5 on the backup and are you running at least TWRP 2.6.3.3. Try the RUU.exe.. Make sure you the adb/fastboot drivers installed.

yes, he is speaking about samsung phones, htc phones are very different than samsung when speaking about flashing stuff.
post the output of "fastboot getvar all" except the IMEI and SERIALNO so we can determine what are your options (1st step in the guide btw)

you have flashed a rom, so you should know how to use ADB and FASTBOOT commands right? if not, there are many guide out there that explain everything, just do a quick search on google: "how to use fastboot"
Code:
fastboot getvar all
then copy/paste the output here (except IMEI and SERIALNO so we can see what version exactly of the HTC one you have and so determine what options you have. (restore using a nandroid backup, a guru reset rom, or a ruu)
And I think I did. Can't remember lol

"can't remember" is not a valuable answer, we need yes or no if you want us to be able to help you.
When I can't remember how to spell a word, I look in the dictionary :laugh: same principle apply here, if you can't remember if you have made a nandroid backup then look in the phone's storage if there is any.... or boot in recovery and check if there is any backup stored.
if you have one, it will be easier so you might want to take 30 sec of your time and check

I asked if you have a nandroid backup, I know you have a recovery, you flashed a custom rom. If you have a nandroid backup you could restore it from recovery mode.

yes this matter if your hboot is 1.44, your phone will not be able to connect in fastboot mode. If this is the case, use a windows 7 PC or a linux like Ubuntu.

It's hboot 1,55. It says fastboot USB, but won't show on fast boot or adb. How do I go back to stock rom

Then your drivers are not installed. Install HTC drivers so the computer will be able to see the phone.

so we are back at post #7, to determine what you need to go back to stock, i need to know your "fastboot getvar all" so we can determine what options you have. For now you can't post this information because you have drivers issue. Fix your drivers and then post that info.
OR
restore your nandroid backup (if you have one, you still not have answered this clearly btw) from recovery, this option will not require adb and fastboot

OK once I get it working I will send the info. Yeah there is a nand backup using twerp. If I done a restore using that will it go back to factory stock Rom?

restoring the backup will restore your phone to the same state it was when you did the backup (only you can know). So if you did the backup when the phone was running the stock rom, it will restore the stock rom. If you did the backup when you were on stock rom + rooted, it will restore stock rom + root.

Doesn't seem to be a backup available. Your choice is to use your own backup (if you have one) or install a custom rom using
1. adb push romname.zip /sdcard
or
2. adb sideload rom.zip

Post your fastboot getvar all output, but erase your IMEI and serial number from it. That way we will be able to point you in the right direction

Hmmm rethinking this now.
Not sure if this "old" device will be able to play Pokémon Go when flashed to the original "old" ROM!
it needs Android 4.4+

This old device received officiall Android Lollipop years ago, so you'll be fine with pokemon go. I'm gonna see if I have my old h-boot stored for you when I come home from work. I think you can go directly to the last one because your phone is s-off, but I'm not sure about that because your h-boot is very old. If you can hold on for about 12 hours, I'll point you to the right direction then

Should update his firmware to 7.19.401.2 using the full firmware zip and than he can flash the 7.19.401.51 RUU.

Downgrade your version-main # to 7.18.708.2 using the guide at the end of this post (how to downgrade with s-on). Once done flash the 7.18.708.21 RUU using instruction of this post. Finally you'll have to take 2 ota update so you're back on 7.18.708.51 (if you need to unlock/root again make sure to install update before)

fastboot oem rebootRUU will make your phoned reboot in ruu mode (that black screen with silver htc logo). Once in ruu mode, it's time to flash the ruu using "fastboot flashing zip ruu.zip". During the flashings process you should get an error saying "flush image again immediately", the phone will reboot itself in ruu mode again and the flashing will continue,it's all normal.

If the ruu flashed fine, it's not rooted anymore. Root files are stored on the /system partition which is wiped and flashed back to stock with the ruu.
