I think ruu should work then you will have to re root
Edit. Nope ruu won't work since you can't boot.

Sideload any stock room you can find here and flash it

I'm uploading the backup files and will post the link in a little bit. The folder contains the files for twrp recovery with the recovery log, recovery image, system image, and boot image, I didn't upload the data so that you could have a clean install and wouldn't get my passwords and stuff

You need to flash it using fastboot command, but you need to rename the file to something shorter. You can't open the file as it has been encrypted by HTC.

Missing Apps & Force Closing - After Stock ROM.

After rooting my Butterfly S (901S) I proceeded to install Busybox which has somehow destroyed my Butterfly.
And yes, I'm an idiot and forgot to do a Nandroid backup before going any further.
After installing Busybox half of my applications have been deleted, the dialer force closes etc.
Does anyone have a flashable STOCK rom so I can go back,

Just a suggestion, please try to uninstall busybox and do factory reset first. If that solution cannot recover your phone, just restore my backup. Good luck bro.

please, the same thing happened to me. I tried to root it but in fact I just unlocked it and by mistake I formated data/media before remounting it. After that he never started again. Stuck at the logo screen or it goes past that but then black screen and that's all.
I would like to reboot to the factory rom. Could you point me to it?

The URL from which my phone downloaded the zip file was
Code:
http://fotadl.htc.com//secure/OTA_DLXPLUS_UL_JB_50_hTC_Asia_HK_1.23.708.3-1.11.708.1_release_33417443z3iqny0zggdtbr.zip/surl:kid=25,et=1380040924,h=694B5DE0FC46CD0CD069E539232CF864
That would mean it was released by HTC directly.
Anyway, there's no way a telco could push out an OTA for the Butterfly S as to the best of my knowledge, there's no branded version of the phone.
4.3 is being pushed out to the HTC ONE. Hopefully we will b seeing it soon as well.

Actually I have a problem with the new update,
Installed it today (901s) by OTA and now my phone just resets every now and then,
already 4 times by now
I think the update just wasn't installed properly, because after reset I get a message that my device was updated..
the problem is that I don't know and don't think it's possible to re-install the update without unlocking the bootloader,
in the meanwhile i'm just hoping 4.3 will roll out soon so the problem will be solved
if anyone knows what to do i'll be really thankful!
edit:
just noticed notes update is gone after a reset, had to install again, so it really makes sense that the device is stuck on the update install

Thats the worst part of it- I can't perform a factory reset.
tried through the settings, than a hard reset through HBOOT, even got into recovery without root by this method:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K0zdRPwJ0g
But nothing seem to work. I get the Boot animation, a black screen, if i'm doing it through the settings or the hboot I get a screen of red triangle with exclemtaion mark(that indicates I don't have root), and then, device just starts up again.
This is really weird, I never saw something like that, and I have no idea what to do.
install custom recovery and reset from there?
if your bootloader is unlocked ofcourse and dont forget to put the stock recovery back afterwards
If you don't want to unlock your bootloader, you can try fastboot boot custom-recovery.img to boot TWRP or CWM without flashing, although I'm not sure that will work. Still, worth a shot.

How can I do that?
I don't want to do anything that can void the warranty, since if i'll need to send it for repair back to Hong Kong it'll cause problems and very expensive fees for the repair.

Exactly as I wrote. Download either CWM or TWRP and try to boot them via fastboot. Boot, not flash. You'll need to reboot into the bootloader (hold the volume down button while the phone is booting up) and type the following command (assuming the file you downloaded is recovery.img):
fastboot boot recovery.img
It's possible it won't do anything or that it will just boot the regular system, but if it does succeed, it won't flash anything, just boot into the custom recovery. Then you can perform a factory reset or reinstall the stock ROM from a ZIP.

I recommend googling a tutorial on how to set up adb and fastboot. The general steps are to download the Android SDK which contains both tools, extract it somewhere, add the location to your $PATH, then download the recovery image, save it somewhere, navigate to that directory within your commandline, connect your phone via USB, reboot it into bootloader (either by rebooting it and holding volume down or by typing adb reboot-bootloader) and then type the following command (substitute recovery.img with the actual recovery image file name):
fastboot boot recovery.img

[Q] Phone stuck in boot loop

Hey all! I have (had) a rooted HTC one.
In an attempt to install an Android 4.3 ROM, I've got my phone in 1 of 2 stages.
I have TWRP
When I tried to download the 4.3 ROM and reboot, it takes me back to the bootloader screen. If i try reboot, it continuity takes me back to this screen.
If i go to recovery, and attempt to wipe & backup, it says successful, however, upon a reboot, it goes through the motions, but android nor apps never loads and in about 20 seconds, the phone restarts and continues this process over and over again..
Can anyone help me just get my phone back please?
I feel like somethings just missing or do i need to factory reset?

I did lose everything on my phone. I didn't had much on it though since I've only had the phone for two weeks.
The course of action is this:
First connect phone to your computer and get ADB going (hopefully you had USB debugging on)
Then follow this guide to get S-OFF and relock bootloader, make sure you booted into recovery:

that's the part i don't get is where do i find/access the adb?
First off I'm assuming you have the android SDK installed on your PC since you have rooted phones before.
You probably need a driver for your PC to recognize the phone. The one I used is this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263822
But you can also download and install the HTC Sync
Once your PC recognizes your phone and you are booted into recovery you can push ADB and fastboot commands to your phone.

K. First, your boot loader IS unlocked? Correct?
If so....
The easiest thing to do if you're trying to update to 4.4.2 is to flash the firmware you are currently on, from fastboot or with rsdlite. This will put you completely stock, ROM and recovery if you do it correctly. Then when you boot into the system, it will ask you to update through ota. Do that and install. Done.
Then you can root again.
If you indeed have an unlocked boot loader that is.
Just use the guide in the link already posted above. "Return to stock"
Or check the rsdlite thread and do it that way.
You might want to backup apps and data and move it to a PC first. If you care to.

You can try to flash the stock recovery and then get the ota...but other root changes you may have made will make it fail also.
