Been flashing ROMs for months.Going back to stock then update..
With this last flash to Stock and after applying Update through recovery the phone will not root.
After reinstall packages after Update was applied the phone just boots and does not go into second recovery screen.
SU was never installed.
Any ideas what mucked up the Stock flash tp where One click or update root does not work?
Found the solution

ok I lost root access some how flashing the update.
What i did was i flash the ere27 I downloaded from rom manager and then applied it through the gui and then flashed the froyo update through recovery.
I have froyo now but I lost my root along with custom recovery. How do I get my root back?
I tried to flash RA recovery and i get an error saying can not load. I'm lost and have no more ideas as to how to gain root.

Im having the same problem.. I've re flashed & rooted my phone from superboot in the process I've seen strange things happen.. Like home key not functioning & power button.. LOL.. I don't even have a recovery image once i upgrade to 2.2... the first time i installed 2.2 using Cyanogen advice everything went flawlessly I was even able to flash his kernel mod to get super user permission... Steps took: Rom manger used to flash ere27 and then stock 2.2.. I dam near bricked my phone making changes to my build.props to enable viewing of protected apps... Now I'm stuck on stock froyo with an outdated slow market place version 1.82
A couple of months ago I rooted my N1 FRF91 with Universal Androot. Later I flashed psfMod (based on CMW) custom recovery using flash_image recovery.
Now I don't have any use for custom recovery or a rooted device anymore, and want to get back on track to be prepared OTA 2.3.
I have received notifications for 2.2.1 OTA (2-part update), but the device just locks up during the upgrade and gets back to rooted 2.2 after a reboot.
So how do I apply the 2.2.1 update? Could I just flash the original recovery with flash_image (and what file should I get in that case), unroot with androot and just use the OTA? Or is there any better/easier way?
The question feels kinda nooby, but the only guides I find is to get back to shipping conditions (Which I don't want to keep my settings and so on),using fastboot which I can't since my bootloader still is locked or assumed that you are using a custom ROM which I don't.
Thanks for your help!
There is no need to get rid of a custom recovery or root to apply those updates. This has been covered in many threads.
This is what I would do. Use flash_image to flash Amon_RA 1.9.0 recovery. Then download the update (make sure you download the correct one: there is one that is FRG83D from FRF91, which is what you will need if you are running FRF91)and save it to the root of your sdcard. Then boot into recovery, and flash the update. (You will lose root and your custom recovery, but just root again if you want.) That covers part 2 of 2 of the update.
If you want to flash the first part, dowload the HBOOT 0.35 update file (floating around the forums) and place it in the root of your sdcard. Boot into recovery and flash that. You may have problems flashing certain custom recoveries after you flash the 0.35 HBOOT.
Thanks for your reply. If I follow your steps, the 2.3 OTA will work when it eventually comes?

If you keep a custom recovery, you will still get the notification, but you will have to manually apply it. If you keep the stock recovery, it should be able to apply it automatically. No word yet on if the newer HBOOT is a requirement for 2.3 or not.
hi, i have installed clockworkmod and used it to push in superuser.apk to achieve root. some time later, i noticed that there was an OTA update, and i tried to install it, download went fine, after rebooting into recovery(which is CWM now), the OTA update failed with unknown command. is there another way for me to install this update, by flashing update.zip using CWM maybe?

Flashing the update.zip should work yes. Additionally, you may want to familiarize yourself with Odin
Ya once u install custom kernel, u cant get it. You just find out original kernel zimage file, n push it back like with initial root flasher. Then u can update with ota.
OR
Download full firmware n flash it with odin. You hav to root + cwm again in either of method
Hi everyone,
I'm having an issue updating my wife's rooted and unlocked HTC One.
I flashed stock recovery for the process to go smoothly but the update is always stuck at roughly 25%. I switch off the phone, it tries again and gets stuck again at 25% with a red mark.
I tried deleting the update and downloading it again through the GUI without luck.
I suspected 3rd party mods like the battery percentage hack, but it still didn't work after reverting it.
P.S. I also have an HTC One, had an issue updating because I had CWM, but the update worked like a charm when I flashed stock recovery.
Any clues?
Bump
1. where are you flashing the update from? - is it a zip file or is it the one the pone received OTA?
2. Which recovery are you using?
3. Which Rom are you on?
ok so basically i rooted my phone some time ago and it went kinda fine, after some time i realized i didn't really need it and i unrooted it just now with superSU, when doing so, superSU asked me if i wanted to return to the stock ROM, and i said yes, since i had an update to do, and you can't do those via OTA with a custom rom i think, anyways i said yes and unrooted my phone, the i proceded to delete lucky patcher, twrp, and everything root related, even after all this, after downloading the update my phone gets stuck in a bootloop and i have to press power+volumeup+volumedown to go into recovery mode (i think that's recovery mode?) and here it starts the update, after 5%, it says it failed and i have to reboot, how do i even check if i have my stock rom back?

Because you have not flashed the stock boot. Use dload method to boot to stock rom now. You may flash the same build number or the one with ota.
