I will try to explain what happened, although I am not sure… I tried to root my phone so I can do a data recovery as I lost all data… at this stage phone still rooted fine, no contacts, no sms, no nothing… it looked like a factory reset.
1. I used htcdev to unlock bootloader
2. I flashed recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.6-m4.img to try and load the superuser.zip to root my phone… I tried several zips, but none of them rooted it… I had to use adb through: cmd C:\Program Files (x86)\HTC\HTC Sync Manager\HTC Sync>, at this stage phone still booted normally and no problems… so I used adb push to install zips to root it… none of them worked…
3. I realized that it might be the clockwork recovery that is the problem, so I decided to change the recovery to TWRP… and this when something went wrong as the phone wouldn’t reboot into normal mode anymore, only bootloader… I though giving it a factory reset would solve the issue, so I did… nothing happened…
4. I managed to flash twrp-2.8.7.0-m4.img recovery and discovered that there is no OS and basically apart from the bootloader theres nothing else on the phone…
I understand that I need to do a RUU flash, however I cannot find the one I need. I followed this thread, however I cannot seem to find the RUU that I need

I also tried fastboot flash zip sense6_firmware.zip, it cannot do it… gives me a fail error…
and now I am stuck as adb doesnt work to push files from either the unlock folder, nor the htc sync one or C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>
This is my first root attempt (maybe I shouldn’t do one and won’t in the future ) as you can see, but maybe I am just missing something very obvious and easy…
I’d like to get the original soft back on the phone but even if its still stored on it, I don’t know how to get to it and make it work…
