There is no Stock Recovery, you will need to flash your entire image for your carrier. Look through the link below, this should do it for you to bring you back to Stock.

Yes I have, that is why I would suggest it. I will never suggest a method or app unless I had tried it and found success with it.

Thanks for the stock recovery ! Now I can update through OTA.
I can not get S-OFF - can u help? I am on 1.54.720.6, HTC_India, HTCDEV Unlocked & rooted.
Hi Aditya,
I've taken the stock Indian backup when I bought the phone.
The cwm backup is taken on May 2014.
So if I do :
1. Cwm recovery of stock backup
2. Flash the firmware posted by you.
Will I be able to get the ota update ?
I'm S-OFF and boot loader is in unlocked state...

If firewater does not work, use Sunshine s-off but you need to pay 25$ for it. Sunshine seems to work with the devices facing "whelp..." Problem?

Ok you need to do the following:
1.flash the nandroid backup.
2.if rooted then, flash unsuperuser.zip to unroot.
3. To return back to stock recovery, use "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" using adb. Use the recovery.img in the firmware.zip file(extract it in pc).
4.reboot and update.
Enjoy 4.4.3 then ?

I experimented and migrated to 4.4.3 already.
But without the firmware.zip posted by you it wouldn't have been possible.
The steps mentioned by u are also simple and precise...
Thank you....
One question : what if I don't restore stock nandroid backup... But update on a custom Rom with stock recovery.... Will it work... Will it at least upgrade the firmware ?

No you can't update officially with those specs. The update will stall and doesn't change a thing.

Hi,
Do I flash this firmware.zip using TWRP. Can't unzip it to find recovery.img
I dont believe flashing would help, just unzip recovery.img is there. Even i did it the same way(many other people also did it). Just try again, or else just PM me your email id , i will email you the recovery.img file

If you have backups by your ROM.... So only you decide if you want update or no update.
Very users have brick with ROOTed device. So...UNROOT and you decide.

I think no. Very users cannot update with ROOTed phone and/or have problems after update phone with ROOTed phone.
So is better make process to UNROOT and you decide if you want update.

I'm trying to get my BLU Studio Energy 2 to install the new wireless update after having rooted my phone using the guide here. In an attempt to get the update installed, I did a full unroot in SuperSU, flashed the original recovery ROM you posted, ran the "root integrity check" from the bootloader successfully, and wiped the cache. When I reboot my phone and try to do the wireless update, I still get the "Your system is damaged, wireless update is disabled" message. I even tried copying the original V12 update zip you posted to my phone and told it to do a local update. It behaved as though it was installing fine, but upon rebooting my phone, now in the wireless update screen, it shows my current version to be V05. Is there something else I'm missing?

My Energy 2 has V08 and not V05.
So rooted phones has files that change or modify the original files and update process know when users have ROOT!
When The users flash custom recoveries not backup stock ROM. The users go to ROOT immediately and it's "damaged" stock ROM.
If you not modify/delete any files from stock ROM so should ROOT process that not go update to V12!!

OP update link to TWRPv3.
I was hoping someone could help me out. I searched the forums but couldn't find anything. Is there any way to extract the recovery image from the firmware zip? I tried to do so on my PC but I received an error saying the zip was invalid which I'm assuming is because it's signed by HTC. I'm trying to avoid flashing the firmware in RUU mode since I then lose root. My goal is to be on the stock recovery with root so I can receive OTA's when they are available. If not, does anyone happen to have a copy of the stock recovery for the 1.19.605.22 software . I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

Hello,
I want to try some custom roms as I just picked up this phone but want a stock rom/firmware before I do. I could not find the exact stock firmware/rom which my phone is on when looking through the File Factory folder. (http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=filename&order=ASC&show=100&page=9)
Will any XT1601 rom/firmware with the same build number work?
My phone is an XT1601 on build MPI24.241-15.3, Baseband Version M8916_20250106.08.05.14R HARPIA_LATAM_CUST.
Would the following work? Will I receive OTA updates if I flash back to this at a later point?
XT1601_HARPIA_MPI24.241-15.3_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Thanks in advance and please let me know if I need to provide any further info!

There is a download-able stock rom for xt1601. So you can always flash back to that stock after trying some custom roms.
I did mine (tried AOKP and flashed back to stock). I was able to receive OTA too.
I have no way near my pc so cannot get link to xt1601 stock and copy here. Trust that if you do a search you can find it.
