[HTC Desire 510] Zubagy:
Hey, I am trying to revert my HTC desire 510 to stock, i do not have a backup. I found files on the htcdev.com and thought they were Roms (easy catch). Unfortunately they are not. I don't even know what to do with these files in order to get my ROM in place.

My device is a 64bit, was running UK Vodafone rom. i need to get that back on. Need help here...:eek:

That up there, old...... I got the solution, thanks to the developers that helped me. Am now posting the links here. Choose which your phone is based on. The link includes different RUU's, not only that of Vodafone.

i have been told that the upper link doesnt work, try this...... https://mega.co.nz/#F!3Zo10Zya!-NbM_2RWWecFlc5mH9bLbA

I did not upload anything, so i will not take credit for that job. On the other hand, i will take credit for widely sharing. (Easy Find)

Best way of downloading is having the Mega downloader app on your computer.

Tested and approved for share. I thank all the developers out there. FYI, the RUU's do not exist on the htc.com/uk site. I do not know why. Those of x86 have theres on htc.com/us site.

Hit THanks

HOW TO INSTALL:

What is changed?

Not much is changed.

Bellow are the app replacements I made:

1. Sense Home ---> NOVA Launcher

2. Sense Messages ---> Google Messages (Material Design)

3. Sense Calculator ---> Xlythe Calculator (Material Design)

4. Sense Calendar ---> Google Calendar (Material Design)

5. Sense Clock ---> Google Clock (Material Design)

6. Sense File Manager ---> ES File Explorer

7. Sense Weather ---> AccuWeather

4. Sense Keyboard ---> Google Keyboard

He removed a lot of HTCs and Google’s useless apps and other things, that are taking up space and resources.

From Google apps you have left:

1. Google Play Store

2. Google Chrome

3. Google Play Games

4. Google Drive

4. YouTube

5. All other background apps and services that are required for the Google apps to function properly.

From HTC apps you have left:

1. Camera app

2. FM Radio

3. Gallery (I couldn't find a decent replacement)

4. Music

5. Photo Editor

6. LockScreen

He removed the HTC Browser, Zoe, E-mail and other useless stuff from HTC.

He has included:

1. Clean Master Lite - It's much faster than the full blown app and gets the job done. Lots of people hate it but it works like a charm on this device.

2. DiskInfo - With this little app you can see all of the partitions on your device. Regardless if you are S-ON or S-OFF.

3. Glim Lite - A set of beautiful Material design icons for NOVA launcher.

He didn't include an E-mail app because the Play Store is full of them and I couldn't choose. This choice is up to you.

How to install it?

First of all you need an unlocked bootloader with a TWRP - custom recovery installed on your device.

To unlock your bootloader go here http://xdaforums.com/desi...e-510-t2910233. Follow that tutorial to get your bootloader unlocked. After a successful unlocking you'll need a custom recovery.

Download this file: https://dl.twrp.me/a11ul/twrp-3.0.2-0-a11ul.img. This is the latest TWRP recovery for our device. Now we need to flash this file on the device:

Before starting put the contents of the ZIP file on to your SD card. And make sure that it has this folder structure:

Code:

--SD CARD

--TWRP

--BACKUPS

--Your device serial number (The name of this folder should be the serial number of your device otherwise TWRP won't see the backups in this folder)

--2016-04-17--13-49-21_KTU84L_release-keys (Don't change this, I don't know what will happen if you do)

All you do is replace the downloaded backup with your backup, 1st delete your files..... DO NOT REPLACE THE FOLDERS, ONLY THE FILES IN THE LAST FOLDER

1. Power off your device by pulling the battery out and putting it in again.

2. Press the Volume Down and Power Buttons until you see the HBOOT screen.

3. Press the Power button again to enter Fastboot mode.

4. Connect your phone with your PC using an USB cable.

5. Now open your terminal (I'm using Ubuntu but it's same in Windows as well) and type:

Code:

fastboot devices

This will show you an output like this:

Code:

--your devices serial number-- fastboot

If it doesn't show you an output like that then you probably didn't install the drivers correctly or you have a faulty USB cable.

If your output is the same as above than we can move on.

This command will flash the TWRP recovery on your device:

Code:

fastboot flash recovery /full/path/to/the/recovery.img

Example:

Code:

fastboot flash recovery /home/denny/Downloads/twrp-3.0.2-0-a11ul.img

Now you have TWRP on your device.

To boot TWRP press the Power button to go back to the HBOOT screen and navigate to the RECOVERY option with the volume keys and again press the Power button. After a few seconds you'll see your new recovery.

Restoring the backup

First we need to wipe any potential data that will cause conflicts with the new system.

1. Tap on "Wipe"

2. Tap on "Advanced Wipe"

3. Select all but leave the Micro SDCard option unchecked.

4. Swipe the slider to wipe the data.

After that is complete press on the house button on the lower end of the screen.

Now we are going to restore the backup:

1. Tap on the "Restore" button.

2. At the lower left corner tap on "Select Storage" button.

3. Choose "Micro SDCard" option and press OK.

4. Now you should see the backup folder. Open it.

5. Select "Boot" and "System" and swipe to start the restoring process.

6. Press "Reboot System" after the restoring has finished.

After you setup you system, remove the battery again, launch in to recovery and flash this boot.img
