can i downgrade with a nandroid using TWRP/CWM

basically trying to get s-off on my device i am on hboot 1.54 as i recently updated to sense 4.2.2
CID: ORANG001
MID: PN0710000
version main: 2.24.61.1
now i have rooted with TWRP & wondering if i can use this nandroid to downgrade:
M7 CWM Nandroid Backup / CID ORANG001 / 1.28.61.7 (Orange UK - Thanks to Azzabear)
http://click.xda-developers.com/api... / 1.28.61.7&jsonp=vglnk_jsonp_13761274174228
would it work & would it downgrade the hboot?

Nandroid won't downgrade hboot.

Sorry, I've no experience with RUUs - never used one. I would guess it would but since you're S-ON you obviously can't superCID, so you would need to find the proper RUU for your CID.

There is no known way to downgrade an hboot on an s-on device.

Just wondering for my own interest, gunny.. what does an RUU restore? I thought it was stock hboot, firmware, rom, recovery, etc. (everything basically). Or is it just that it can't downgrade even with an RUU if you are S-ON and would need to wait on a new RUU being released? Unless you're S-off and can superCID, then your can run any RUU - and that would downgrade *everything*..
cheers

The RUU is as far as I know a collection of all of the partition images for the phone.
Even with S-off it is not possible to downgrade an HBoot without flashing that HBoot separately. IOW if you are on a 1.54 firmware, in order to flash an RUU containing 1.44 Hboot you have to flash the 1.44 Hboot by itself or else the RUU will fail.
SuperCID (11111111) will pass the CID check
It is my understanding that in the past, S-off meant you could downgrade with just the RUU but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.
The RUU install checks a few things
MID and CID
HBoot must be the same or greater version number
if these checks fail, the RUU won't flash even with S-off
The beauty of S-off is, we can flash these things manually without the RUU bypassing the checks.
You can simply use the DD command in a root shell and copy the partitions to the phone, but this is dangerous, because if you put a partition in the wrong location, BRICK.
My knowledge here is not as advanced as many here, so someone please correct me if I got any of this wrong.

do RUU's have to match CID's?

You need the exact one for your phone/region if you are S-On. Also, you can't downgrade your Hboot when you're S-On. I suspect you are on Hboot 1.54 seeing as you want to downgrade? Well you can't as you couldn't even go S-Off on that Hboot unless you had S-Off before you upgraded.
In a nutshell, you're stuck with what you have until somebody finds a way to go S-Off on Hboot 1.54 ... Why on earth do you want to downgrade anyways

You can't run an RUU though, other than the one made for your model/region and it has to be the same as the version you are on, or newer. To run an RUU that is an earlier version than what you're on requires you to be S-Off I believe and if you're on 1.54 then there isn't currently a way to get S-Off.

Pleas Help me!

CID should be HTC__001 and MID PN0710000
Then get the 1.28.401.7 RUU and flash that and then get the OTAs to get to 2.24.401.8 and you're good to go

BS_US001 is the Dev Edition; if that was original CID before you did anything, then the Dev Edition RUU is what you want!

The RUU checks cid and mid for compatibility. The only reason you are changing them is to flash the RUU.

Version main ?
Software version ?
On basis of CID no I suggest
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...0-38r-1157-04l_release_353069_signed_2-1-exe/
But if you have higher no software version you need higher RUU
There are dump files available @ XDA search them
You need x.xx.401.x version

hboot 1.57 so he is either on a 5.xx.401.xx or 6.xx.401.xx version, the ruu will not work, 4.xx.xxx.x ruu are for hboot 1.56
he will indeed need to provide his firmware/software version. There is like 4 versions of .401 on hboot 1.57...

to use ota update, your firmware version and rom version must match. We can't tell you what rom you need exactly because you can't tell us what is you firmware version. Your version number is erased from your getvar (because of twrp recovery) so if you don't remember what rom version you were on before flashing your custom rom, then I don't have any idea of which one you need.
better to go s-off and flash a full RUU.

I am looking for the same thing too, I believe you are looking for 6.09.401.5 was the main firmware that 4.4.3 roms used although they are up to 6.09.401.12 now.
I can't find a RUU for this firmware anywhere though.

If you get ota and flash it without problems only that will confirm
