There are two types of ruu's. The first would be an .exe ruu, these come directly from htc and well you run them on your computer. These are hit and miss, sometimes they get released others they don't usually I've seen them when an update is released. Now the second type is just a zip compiled from a raw system pull. BUT. Please don't quote me on this and don't flame either lol. This one I believe we just have to wait for someone to compile it



Yeah I'm talking bout those you run an your computer from HTC. I thought they were readily available. I guess I don't usually have a device when its so new.

I'm pretty sure RUU stands for Rom Update Utility but again don't quote me on that those are honestly my favorite because they are idiot proof lol

Yeah it does. I just want to to debrand my phone. I have S-OFF, I've changed CID, Don't wanna do it from a nandroid backup so I want the generic EU software from HTC so I get OTAs.

You can do it with a bit of thought...

1. Use the 1.54.401.5 firmware package posted by @mike1986. to make sure you're on the latest build
2. Flash the stock, odexed 1.54.401.5 ROM also posted by @mike1986. to go back to 100% stock (and it's not a Nandroid)
3. Flash the 1.54.401.5 stock recovery
4. Set CID to HTC__001

That'll get you back as if you'd used an RUU

So following these steps gets you to an unlocked version of the phone correct? (Just confirming that cid is the unlocked version) I'm on tmobile s-off also waiting for a RUU but I may just do this instead. Also I'll need to change the mid, any clue what that is?

Yes it would give you the unbranded, EU M8_UL but you'd probably have to change the MID as well and I don't know what that is (although I'm sure someone else can help on that front)

Don't think you should have to change MID. Think that's only when you have bought device in a totally different region. EU devices whether branded or not should be OP6B10000

Well I bought my device at T-Mobile USA. With my m7 I had to change both the mid and cid. I'm assuming it's the same with this device.

Could I flash Mikes .5 ODEXED ROM even if I've already flashed .10 FW. Struggling to root the .10 odexed file I've flashed.

You can just flash back the .5 FW, but you should be able to root .10 with the latest SuperSU package HERE

That's really odd. I am using the 1.99r3 release. Nothing happens though. Root just wont stick on that odexed stock firmware.
