Thumbs up [X920d] How to Unroot HTC Butterfly

This guide is made for those people who want to unroot and revert there HTC butterfly to stock firmware by flashing Stock RUU using ADB commands. this is tested personally by me. a compete detail explanation can be found in this link.


1. download the stock RUU in this link. This is a working Stock RUU image and can be flash only using ADB command. the zip file will prompt you that it is corrupted when you try to open manually. rename the file to PL99IMG.zip to flash it faster.

PL99IMG_DLXB1_U_JB_45_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.12.707.1_R_Ra dio_3A.22.306.10_10.07.1060.04D_release_signed.zip

2. You will need sdk & and drivers, please take a look here. if you already have it, continue. extract the folder and copy the PL99IMG.zip to that directory.
3. Reboot to bootloader by Holding Vol down + Power button
4. Connect your phone to the PC while in the bootloader. The phone should say fastboot USB, if not, select fastboot on the phone & check if it says fastboot USB, if not, change the USB port you are using.
5. open a command prompt and browse to the folder containing the ADB files.
6. enter the following commands
Quote:
fastboot erase cache
7. You may not see any output, then enter the command
Quote:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
8. You phone will now go into the RUU mode.
9. Wait for around 30 seconds, then enter the command
Quote:
fastboot flash zip PL99IMG.zip
if this error will prompt you. enter the command again in step 9.

Quote:
FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)
Normal after Hboot version changes. You need to run only the flash command again (not the whole set of commands, just the fastboot flash command.)
10. The installation will begin and you will be able to see the progress at every step.
Once done, enter the command
Quote:
fastboot reboot
i hope this guide will be a great help.
Hit Thanks if you like it.

So why do we have 2 threads .. ?? Just confused

Also when I tried fixing the zip, I didnt see any boot image in it.. can someone who has restored confirm that their kernel also actually reverted ?

you dont have to fix the zip file. let the internal RUU flash everything for you including the boot image. as i said never try to fix the zip file even though it saying its corrupted. only RUU will can open the zip file properly. this guide is a step by step procedure. alright? i confirm that this is working. this where the steps i used to revert my butterfly back to stock.

Agreed on that , whats baffling me is that boot image doesnt come up in the zip listing at all ... anyways, I am not in need of this , was just clarifying for others

This will put my Butterfly to stock everything right? Locked bootloader, stock recovery and all?

I guess this is a sort of side question, but is this the latest current software available for the X920D or is there an OTA available?

EDIT: Also what languages are available in this RUU?
