I have flashed my phone over and over trying to get Puzzle Rom to work properly. Finally got it all working and upto now really happy with it although......
I would like to be able to flash it with the stock rom so that when Froyo comes out I can let it update to that. I would also like to have the 3 network software back on it as I liked being able to have live messenger etc and my3 so that I can check my usage.
I downloaded the rom from shipped roms but it is a RUU file and I don't know how to put it on, can anyone help??

Just plug your phone into your computer and run the RUU.exe on your computer.

Sorry, I presumed you had already created a goldcard. See this for all the instructions on creating a goldcard (do this before flashing) and how to flash:

A goldcard makes it so that you don't get that error.

You need to RUU. That restores the stock ROM, deletes Amon RA, and destroys evidence of rooting it. Only works on windows.
Just flash the sprint RUU.

i tried it but keep getting a usb error can you help ??
You need to copy the ADB.exe from the Android SDK over to the RUU folder.
Or you can install HTC Sync... that also fixes the USB error. However, ADB.exe in the RUU folder would be quicker.
ok iGot the usb drivers for android but after the RUU.exe finishes running my phone continues to boot the custome rom instead of stock Sprint rom
Hey, got me a HD2 and have been trying the last few days to flash a custom rom. I downloaded energy's, ran HSPL3, even did a task 29. I synced with windows mobile 6.1, right clicked and ran as admin on both the customruu.exe as well as the one that comes with the rom and nothing appears. As seen on vids, a screen should pop up and tell you that you are about to update rom. I dont see it at all. I've eve reinstalled official rom and tried reflashing and nothing. Anyone have any idea on how to help me? Stock rom sucks and wanna do a custom. btw, i have no antivirus prog just to be sure and still no go. also, i have tried flash via sd, no go there too.
I had problems like this until I plugged USB directly into back of puter.

yes, in the back. Many pc's nowadays have usb ports built into the front of the computer case.
These ports will usually not work with hspl, and occasionally not with sync/flashing.
Look around back and use one of the ports there, which are directly connected to the pc's motherboard.
Ok, so I went to flash a new ROM on my phone, and when I go to the run the RUU, I get the screen with the 4 steps to complete, which are already completed, then hit next. Now I get "Error [240] : File Open" and below that it says "The Update Utility cannot open the requested file. Please check the update utility."
I tried downloading the Update Utility again, but it still does the same thing. Ive flashed my phone before, and Im pretty sure Im not doin anything different this time, but its not workin. Am I missing somethin?
Thanks

Check if your harddrive isn't full.
A RUU extract some files, and if your harddrive is full it can't
Nope, its not full. Far from it actually lol.

URGENT MAJOR HELP REQUIRED *PLEASE*:
I am stuck on DFT boot screen (after doing 1234-vol up_down-wp7-reset) and this is *after* (wp7 here !) all the chains b4 that are done: ie: power on, hspl, htc, magldr- for windows phone 7 on hd2. Sometimes get thru to windows phone 7. but generally reboots. Done spl back to stock and leoimg on sd back to stock and tried task28s, 29s, etc but just reboots constantly and randomly.
Any thoughts here? What is warranty process? DO they replace at all with NEW? or new BOARDS/RAM? Gone back to 1.66 spl and sent in for repairs. because - the stupid recommended Romupdateutility HTC stock rom 'upgrade' did this damage. yes, was Windows Phone 7 and activated using dev hack with marketplace & xbox/live. Also - although I activate ok and can use it on market fine once it boots good - still when both my hd7 (hd2) and Mozart are signed into XboxLive using same address at same time: (mozart is legit fully/eula-signed etc) then the hd2 seems to reset a LOT here at this point. maybe this has something to do with usual xbox-live security? ie: http://www.wpcentral.com/hack-xbox-live-windows-phone-7-get-perma-banned-microsoft ?????????? please hlp me - I am fully capable of mtty, sd-leoimg, whatever it takes- but need to know why this would be the case? same with Android roms/stock too. Anyone know about task2a on hd2? how many bad blocks I should have? partition/re-partition droid or wp7 to avoid these bad blocks? I just WISH Cotulla/DFT let you run the windows phone 7 installer in such a way that all bad bloks could be excluded totally as if the never exist... ie make hd2 clean.

note: although I have gone bak to original spl+rom in past I have (both unsuccs &succesfully) have previously done task2a and even spl-mfg install and radios/roms as DEBUG/SPL-MFG. xmoo?

Sorry but I've never heard of anything like that. There should be a recovery tool for windows. I only have this phone so you will have to investigate for yourself.
Keep looking in this thread someone else will come along soon.

It's obvious your phone is not rooted. Try flashing an RUU.
1: Visit here:
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Buzz
2: Get any Eclair RUU,
RUU_Buzz_HTC_WWE_1.37.405.1_Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25_release_151892_signed.exe
(I am assuming your phone was not operator locked / branded)
3: Connect your Wildfire to your PC, and, run the EXE file. (Note: Make sure the EXE file downloads fully. It is approx 130 MB in size)
4: Let the process complete (Takes ~15 minutes)
If it is successful, check whether the phone starts up properly or not. If it still doesn't, return it to you dealer and claim your warranty.

Is your phone an operator branded one?
Anyway, to solve that, you will need to create a goldcard. Guide here:
http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/
But remember, if your phone is branded, this will remove their ROM and add a stock HTC WWE (Worldwide English) one, probably voiding the warranty if there is no RUU for your carrier.
problem solved i flash with same version..
tnx to all....
Moved thread to general as it is not about android development
Well, the time has come and I've got a new phone coming today. I struggled a bit putting my HTC One M8 back to stock so just trying to get the ball rolling for the 10 now. I looked around but didn't find any thread with a clear cut way to go back to stock from a rooted/bootloader unlocked phone. Anyone have a link or any tips or anything?
Thanks in advance.

Easiest way is to just run an RUU on it. Go here and grab the latest RUU.exe from OMJ. https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-10/development/ruu-sprint-htc-10-1-24-651-3-t3379257
It's an executable file that runs on your computer while the phone is plugged in. Make sure you back up any data on the phone because it'll wipe everything and overwrite the whole shabang.
Perfect, thank you.
I remember having issues doing the same on my M8 but that was quite some time ago so didn't know if there was a guide or something out there. I'll give this a shot after I've got the new phone up and running for a few days.
Thanks again.

No worries.
Just read the thread OMJ has and you'll know what to do. Only thing you'll need are HTC drivers, but a lot of times Windows automatically downloads the right one. Not always though. If you have any trouble with the drivers just give a shout. We'll help you find them.

Does RUU flashing restore the stock recovery too? Or do I have to reflash stock recovery after or before the ruu is installed?
Does ruu installation remain the sd card untouched or is it better to get it out from my device?
Thanks

RUU flashes the stock recovery as well. No need to flash anything after the RUU has been applied. It doesn't touch your SD card, but I'd remove it just in case. You never know when an SD card could get corrupted.

Thanks for quick answers, will flash ruu this evening! And indeed, it's a bit of wisdom to get the sd card out of the device
