Easy as pie,... Pick the rom you want from here,...
XDA's Official HTC Hero RUU ROM Links
... or here,...
Modaco's Stock ROMs + radios in update.zip format for GSM Hero
I have given link to the Modaco page as there are rooted stock ROMs there, could be useful.
.... Put onto SD, then apply update. I assume you know how to flash ROMs as you are using a custom one already,...

Yep, exactly the same, wont take long at all. I didn't bother creating a backup as I knew I could always get it from somewhere. Where would we be without XDA eh,.... Still using a Nokia I expect!!!

any other way to flash the official rom beside the way you show me before, actually i bought from 2nd hands, not me flash the hero. so maybe you can help me the easiest way...sorry to bother.
If you really want the easiest way, download and install the official RUU from HTCs website. However, this will make it harder for you to apply a custom ROM in the future.

If that's really what you want:
Make sure you have the usb drivers installed on your PC. Easiest way is probably to install HTC Sync, following HTC's instructions, assuming you don't have it set up already. Then just connect your phone to your PC via USB, download the RUU which will be an executable & double click on it. Can't get much simpler than that

Ok, I tried installing this from the "Fresh" ROM, and it's giving me an error code. I need to get this Sprint Hero back to stock.

This thread is not for the SPRINT HERO,.... This is for the GSM HTC HERO,.... You could seriously damage your phone using these instructions.
You need to start in the CDMA section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=519
Actually, it depends on what he is trying to do! If he's trying to install the RUU (from this thread) for the Sprint Hero, it should be fine.

Since you're rooted(you did root your phone right?), you can't use official updates from HTC. You have to download a ROM from xda forums and flash.

no i i didnt root it! and i don't know how

where i can get official rom?
Ok well I'd recommend rooting your phone first. Its very simple. There's a thread in the HTC Aria forums where it guides you step by step on how to root.
Sent from my Liberty CM7
does it work with gratia? have anybody try it?
Yeah it works with every HTC android phone. I would post the link but I'm on from the xda app and don't know how to post the link. Just go to HTC Aria> Android Development> and there's a guide on how to install unrevoked. Just follow that.

If you have a gratia you can't root the phone. The hboot has not been cracked yet. If you received the phone like this you are going to need to send it back for repair. Also there is no released RUU for the stock gratia.

Isn't the gratia almost exactly like the Aria? Because Arias ROMs are from legend and gratia.
Sent from my Liberty CM7
yes it is the same phone but the hboot which is required for root is a newer version on the gratia. The USA aria and asian with 2.1 have an hboot of .57 the gratia / aria 2.2 update in asia have an hboot of 1.01 or something which cannot be hacked hence no root.

Cyanogenmod and LA Roms are not from Legend. LA FR series is from Aria (Asia) and Gratia, which is an Aria with newer firmware, such as the newer HBOOT that jznomoney mentioned, that hasn't been hacked yet.

can you pull the files from your phone MK king
open a command prompt and make a directory change to it and do adb pull /system
it should pull all the files off your phone
compress it and upload it to mediafire or some sort of sharing site. send us a link.

Better yet, could you start the HBOOT in your phone (turn off, press volume down + power button and a white screen with text will come up) and check its version? It should be 0.57.000
Do you know if someone is working on Gratia looking for a way to root it?
Will be possible to do?
Hi, I flashed rcmix hd and am really enjoying it at the moment, but if I wanted to go back to my stock rom I had, do I just restore my nandroid backup?? And then unroot and eng s-on?
Thank you ;-)
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Yep, should be as simple as that (restoring the backup will return the phone to the state it was in when the backup was taken).
Unless you're needing it fully back to stock for warranty purposes I'd be inclined to leave root and s-off so when you inevitably get sick of the stock ROM again you can flash another without having to bother re-doing all that, but that's just me
You will also have to replace CWM with the stock one.
An alternative would be flash RUU, s-on and unroot.
I didn't see post sorry, yeah I was thinking of going back to stock, but wondered whether I should use Vodafone branded ruu or use official HTC ruu??
If I flash official HTC ruu, will I debrand my phone? And if its debranded do I still get ota updates?
And after flashing HTC ruu, do I just do radio s-on and unroot? Or as u said just flash official ruu and leave root and radio s-on for another rom later on down the line?
Oh and you said I will need to replace cwm with stock one, so if I flashed HTC ruu, does that automatically replace it?
Thank you

ok thank you, i was gonna flash official ruu 1.32 but it is in exe. format, how would i do that?? because i thought it had to be a zip file, so you could install it through cwm????
Maybe it's meant to be used on the computer if it's an exe?
You will also probably have to connect the phone to the computer via usb.

hhmmmm, maybe i should just use the zip file then.
theres 2, either 1.32 xx3.exe
or 1.32 xx6.zip
does it really matter which one i flash??
It's not meant to be flashed, it's meant to be executed on the computer with the phone connected via usb. HTC Sync should be on too. I was just being sarcastic earlier...

looooool i know , but ive just got used to using the zip file and installing through cwm, so all this talk of exe. files is confusing me yet again :-0???
but i suppose using the 1.32 xx6 zip file is ok, i hope
The RUU is an all in one utility to flash official HTC ROMs, RUU = Rom Update Utility.
To flash one, ensure you have HTC Sync installed (for correct drivers), plug your handset in to your computer, double click the RUU.exe, follow the prompts. Easy as peas.

if im not wrong flashing the ruu will flash the recovery to the default one as well.and will also eng-S-On it...so the only thing to do after that is just to root and radio S-On.

Why do you have to make it harder than it is? Just run the RUU .exe from your computer.

Yeah I done it now mate thanks just run it through computer and it done its thing.
So I'm debranded now, I lost root but did get ota update for 1.32 xx6 which I updated so happy at moment , thanks for your help ;-)
Oh but cos I'm debranded at the moment if I wanted to do s-on and change cid thing, would I change it to debrand model or do I need to change cid to branded? Cos it was originally branded? But not anymore ???

As you have a unbranded rom, use the unbranded CID

all the rom's you find under "legend development" are made for htc legend so will work on your legend
what is your real question here?

to flash an official ruu; you create a goldcard (you can google for tutorial) and download an ruu (i prefer shipped roms, google that)

just I want to be sure .
it means which ever ruu rom is here for htc legend, with this method i can flash it on device.
1- Its not related to it, the legend is lcd or led?
2- its not related to it, its rooted or not rooted?
again thanks.

official ruu's can be found here, i recomend you download a WWE (WorldWideEdition)
lcd,led, rooted or not rooted doesnt matter because you're installing an Official ROM by HTC
Remember this, if you install an ruu your hboot (some kind of bios) will be updated to 1.01 probably, which means you can't s-off your phone
To be sure you know this, RUU and Rom's that you find here are totally different
Make sure you make the right decision
If you still have questions feel free to ask
what about this method.
can I use this method?

yes you can, but I still think you need to make a goldcard first
HTC has released a OFFICIAL unlock for Legend (amongs other),

Better late then never?
Woahh.. Finally..~!! After nearly 2 years of waiting..
Yup.. its true.. better late than never..
Finally.... YES!
This'll give us S-Off to H-boot 1.01?
Also, now is better than ever

Once you've unlocked the Legend download and run the HTC Supertool V3 from your machine, select option 1 then option 3 and you'll be permanently rooted, then you can install rom manager and deploy whatever rom you want.
So, if I vaguely recall correctly,...
This basically means we won't need the gold-card trick anymore.
I use my Legend for app testing, both CM7 and Blayo ROM as a proxy for stock. I avoid real stock ROMs because they tend to be a pain to re-root etc.
So perhaps I can try real stock ROMs and be able to switch back that much easier...
Hi
I have a legend running cm7 with S-on, how can i get S-off now?
Thx

Thanks. I've done the HTCDev part, I'll do Supertool and custom rom at weekend. I can use clockworkmod from market to install a rom or do I have to use a Legend specific version ?
This is to get s-off? I'm on 1.01 Hboot. Using CM 7.1 stable
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
nope... just the unlock bootloader... but you can use most of the S-OFF function.
with this you can flash your recovery part of your phone and also have system writes.

Well, we don't know that as of yet (that's still a big mistery to us) but I can assure you that one who would find that out would most certainly be elected as president of the Internetz.
Have done HTC dev part and now with hboot 1.02. So next step should be to use super tool?
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Yes, option 1 and 3, gets you root.
I tried the steps mentioned in wiki using super htc tool 3 and then using ROM manager. I was happy that it's almost done but got stuck with red triangle and exclamatory Mark when tried flashing cm7. What next ?!
