Where can I find the Original 2.1 ROM as zip?

I rooted and reflashed my Hero months ago. Now I want to install the origilan HTC ROM on it, but when I try to do the first update, it doesn't work. I think it's because I replaced the recovery with the one that allowed me to have other ROMs on my Hero. Where can I find the original ROM zipped so that I can update it, or restore the original recovery ROM?
Can someone help me?
Try these, they are the genuine ROMs from HTC.

Nope, you can flash stock firmware without unlocking the bootloader.

Bad news:
Chicken-eggs problem:
I have rooted Z1c with CWM and locked bootloader.
When I unlock, I can easily rooted and install CWM.
BUT! Can't upgrade (Sony sad: upgradable Android 4.4)!
BUT! When I'm waiting for KitKat upgrade, maybe I can't it rooted and install CWM.

Can you please just kindly edit your first post on this thread to add more details (the fact that it's a Chinese ROM)? And please include these details the next time you post ROMs. It'll be helpful to a lot of people I'm sure. Thank you.

Is it possible to ask for deodexed Z1 Compact fw.142?
I have updated my xperia z1 compact to 14.2.A.1.142 yesterday.So it is very good.Battery life is very good too.I had a bug with stamina mode on 14.2.A.1.14..Suddenly stamina mode got some problem on 14.2.A.1.14.Thats why I updated with pc companion.Now everything working very well
Does the fact that this is a Chinese ROM mean that there is no English language in it? Just checking. Can someone please confirm ASAP? As long as I can still change my language preference to English, I'm okay!
Thanks in advance.
Just ran through this update - ALL IS WELL! Thanks!

This is just a duplicate guide from the many that are out there. Its not even your own work

What do you think? Should i even create the source?
Nobody had this guide yet...
I want to help people, not get thanks or make myself Recognized developer or contributer to yell on others.
The devices your currently using is not created by yourself, your using manufacturer is hardware and software.
Anyway, i helped people, i am helping people and i will.
We are born to share.
A country itself can't produce and grow everything, they need other countries help also.
There are plenty of guides explaining the same in a clearer manner.
Using the same kernel for different devices doesn't sound safe to me.
"Passing regards to the maker" is not in the spirit of XDA, don't troll for thanks while just stealing someone elses work.

I never received a PM from you vndnguyen.
There was little interest in the guide before it was removed. And now many are asking for it. My guide was stolen by another XDA member. Once staff have a chance to deal with the thief, I will repost it. I can only assume that they are busy though as I haven't heard anything further in four days. So they probably haven't looked into it yet.

Thank you so much.
I'm not sure if it is the same as fffft's instruction. But I will save it for reference.
Do you know if anyone has added successfully using this instruction?

yes users have done it without problem. you should use cm11 and arc kernel though for best results.

Tweak for Fingerprint scanner needed!

Hey All... Not sure whether this has been answered... But I really wanted to know if there is a way to unlock the phone just by touching the fingerprint scanner and not by pressing it and then touching the scanner...
So I know that this can be done by flashing CM 13. But... I don't want to flash... I wonder whether I can flash a zip update and achieve this... Mine is rooted with TWRP Recovery installed.
Thanks!
I believe you are using official COS, if so you can follow the steps from below link http://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z1/development/mod-restored-fingerprint-touch-t3262388/page1
