Hi,
Firstly, I would just like to say, if this has been covered already, I apologize sincerely.
I have recently rooted and unlocked the bootloader on my XL. Unfortunately, I executed the process the wrong way round (rooted first) and subsequently lost all USB storage connectivity as well as messed up my location settings and lockscreen icons (which no longer appear...ever).
To remedy this, I flashed RCMix3D (which I must say, is a fantastic ROM) and it seemed to remedy all problems.
The problem I'm having now is that I am wanting to sell my device due to financial problems, but to sell it to a store, it needs to be on the stock ROM. I have a nandroid backup of the original ROM but it is faulty (no USB connectivity etc) and I cannot sell it with the custom ROM (I tried selling a Samsung Galaxy Ace to them a while ago and it was refused because it had a custom ROM).
So my question is this: How can I get back to a fully functional stock ROM? All guidance and resources are kindly appreciated.
PS. I purchased my device in the U.K and I am my carrier is Three.
Thank you for your time,
Jim
1. Enter FASTBOOT, and then connect to your computer (FASTBOOT USB will be shown)
2. Open command prompt in your computer
3. Relock your device bootloader by typing
Code:
fastboot oem lock
*device will reboot*
4. Enter FASTBOOT again (you will see *** RELOCKED ***)
5. Apply this RUU
6. You device will be back to stock rom unrooted !

Also, I noticed that RUU file is an exe. file. Is this correct? If so, do I just run in on my PC?
Many thanks again

Yes the RUU is a Windows PC program. Just run it and follow the instructions.
YES! the RUU provided helped me out when i bricked my sensation xl. and the 'flash oem lock' does the trick.
please tell me how can I go to fastboot and do that command

so HTC HOLIDAY SUPERGUIDE seems to say you need to relock your bootloader before you flash the stock ROM. I thought it would be the other way around???

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836
***(BEFORE YOU BEGIN)
- You MUST be on a stock ROM with the bootloader locked or re-locked
- If you are NOT locked/re-locked or you are on a custom ROM, then you MUST follow the following directions...
- Boot into H-Boot by powering off. Once off, power back on and hold VOL DOWN + POWER BUTTON, once in HBOOT go to "fastboot" and click the power button to select
- Download the WCXJB ROOT PACK zip from the bottom to your desktop and unzip it
- Inside the unzipped WCXJB ROOT PACK folder, hold SHIFT and RIGHT CLICK, select open a command window here
- Run this code in the command prompt without quotes
- "fastboot oem lock"
- Now reboot
- Now, we will flash you back to the original stock ROM you were on
- Pick the RUU for your specific device. For example, the one for AT&T has the word "Cingular" in it, the one for Rogers says "Rogers" in it.
- You will find the RUU's here http://www.filefactory.com/f/002b74e0f4775869/ (THANKS to user football)
- Once you download the correct RUU, make sure your phone is plugged in via USB to your computer and you have the correct drivers (or just HTC Sync) installed on your computer
- Run the executable and follow the steps to flash the stock ROM
- Once the ROM loads, you can move on to the next steps
Same, but It is used with HTC Support. Unlocking allows CUSTOM ROMS That is a default HTC/Att/Whatever RomUtilityUpdate (RUU) so you need to be relocked for it to work or you will get errors and will not work
>>>so you need to be relocked for it to work or you will get errors and will not work
For it to work? what is "it", the RUU?
If so how do I relock it. when I adb devices I dont show up so I cant fastboot oem lock.
Sounds like you have the incorrect htc drivers installed. download the all in one toolkit in the android development and install the drivers and see if it shows up in adb.. just to make sure you have to be in hboot and the phone will say "Fastboot usb" in red text then you open a command window and type "fastboot oem lock"
>>>all in one toolkit in the android development
do you have a link for that?

6.open the terminal in your computer and type in 'adb devices', you probably will see an empty list, no devices. Just follow step 7
7. type in 'fastboot oem lock' without quotes and your device is locked again, you will see relocked - you might see a warning under it but that's nothing, after rebooting the warning will go away.
I haven't understand these lines. Can u explain me, what does mean "adb devices"?

Most easy way to flash stock ROM is when device is unlocked , s-off it and run the ruu. If you relock the device you can't flash a GB ROM if you had used stock ICS.

How can i flash ruu? Will i have access to recovery?
Inviato dal mio HTC Sensation XL with Beats Audio X315e con Tapatalk 2
Flashing an ruu is done via computer with a windows os
Ok guys, so I was trying to flash the software on my Sprint HTC One with a custom one, while drunk. Needless to say it didn't work. I suspect that chrome f*cked up downloading the rom, because it was only 800mb, and should have been about 1gb. Now, the phone isn't working. When I try to turn it on it shows the htc logo and then boots up in fastboot. Fastboot still receives cmd commands, but I still havent found a way to flash an RUU on it. Tryed with twrp as a recovery- cant mount to computer. Tryed sending the file to phone through cmd- some error about not working radio came through. I'm cutting corners explayning all the methods I tryed to make it work, but there were a lot of them and I dont remember all. I have flashed the boot and the recovery back to the stock ones, bootloader IS unlocked. Phone vertion (as shown in the bootloader screen):
***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***
M7_WLS PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT- 1.44.0000
OpenDSP-v31.120.274.0617
eMMC- boot
Jul 5 2013,17:19:22:-1
My question is how do I return it to stock condition (or unlocked to all networks if possible)? Please, I've been trying to fix it on my own for over a week now, and am getting desperate. If possible please give links to step-by-step tutorials and/or files I'll need. Thank you in advance.
PS.: Also, for some reason my computer does fails to install the HTC MTP device driver. Could it be from that, and if it is- will using a different computer solve the problem (tryed a million times to fix that as well- no luck)?

It sounds like you have the same problem that a lot of people are getting into around here, myself included. You tried to flash a non-cdma compatible rom onto your phone.
There are numerous postings about how to fix this, however, it depends on the condition of your phone which step you take.
If you have recovery installed and you have access to recovery you will take different steps than if you only have access to fastboot.
You need to have a recovery installed and you need to relock your phone to fastboot ruu. Once that is done you basically start from scratch and unlick your phone again and then you can reinstall the recovery and then flash the correct cdma compatible roms.

In your command window in the same directory you run fastboot from, you should be able to run adb.
The easiest way to check is to type: adb devices
this should return a value if you are booted into recovery.
it will give you nothing if you aren't in recovery.
if you cannot get into recovery then you need to make sure your phone is unlocked and then fastboot a recovery onto your phone.

as long as you can boot into recovery, it should work. i personally favor twrp, but any recovery should work.
try out some adb commands and see.
adb sevices
adb shell
if you get anywhere with those while booted into recovery you should be ok.

did those adb errors or no devices found occur while your phone was showing the twrp start screen?
if yes, then we need to reboot into the bootloader-- to fastboot.
if no then try adb shell again while showing the twrp start screen.

It seems like you need to fastboot flash recovery onto your phone again.
Here are the steps as I think they should work to get you back up and running.
**Make sure your phone is unlocked. (it should display ***UNLOCKED*** at the top of the bootloader screen)
if you ARE unlocked do the following(+++see below if you are NOT unlocked+++)
1. from bootloader select fastboot - connect phone to computer. fastboot should change to fastboot usb when you have a good connection.
on your computer:
2. open a command window and navigate to the folder where adb and fastboot are located
3. type in "fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxx.zip" where xxxxxxxx.zip is the name of recovery zip file without quotes. Make sure you download a good copy appropriate for your phone. I would use this one: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7wls/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7wls.img
4. type fastboot reboot
on your phone:
5. once it is rebooted and in bootloader select recovery and boot into recovery.
on your computer:
6. once your phone shows recovery main screen then typeat the command prompt: adb shell
7. no matter what the prompt looks like type: echo "1.29.651.10" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 bs=1 seek=160
8. no matter if it errors or not type: adb reboot bootloader
9. type: fastboot oem lock
10. type: fastboot oem rebootRUU
11. type fastboot flash zip xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip is the name of the ruu.zip file. i would use this one: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22926241640219526
12 reboot your phone once that is successful!! If you get the "flush image again immideately" error message then repeat step 11. then reboot your phone.
you should now be running a stock sprint phone.
you can now unlock your phone again and reinstall a recovery.
to unlock your phone the second time:
13. boot your phone into bootloader then go to fastboot - make sure the phone is connected to the computer
14. on your computer type in: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
15. on your phone select unlock with volume rocker and press power once unlock is selected
16. on computer type: fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxx.zip is the same recovery zip file we used above in step 3
17. reboot your phone and you are now unlocked and you have a custom recovery installed and you can download a CDMA compatible rom to your phone and install it with the recovery like normal. or you can continue to run stock.
MAKE SURE YOU ONLY DOWNLOAD CDMA COMPATIBLE ROMS FROM THE SPRINT HTC ONE FORUMS.
enjoii!!
+++if you are NOT unlocked+++
try the following:
step 13
step 14
step 15
step 16
step 4
step 5
step 6-17
make sure you complete all the way through 17 after you do step 6. good luck and let me know what your results are.

Nope, adb still doesn't work. Could it be something wrong with the drivers my computer installs? Because when I'm in recovery my computer detects the device in "Other Devices" as "M7WLS", and I don't have a driver for that and neither does microsoft update. Any suggestions?

Were you already s-off before you flashed the OTA? What rom were you using prior to the flash?
I'm guessing you will need to go back to 1.29 ruu to go back to stock before you continue on.
What was your reason for flashing the 1.31 OTA?
Yes I was s-off, I had the stock rom, I was experiencing some weird issues with any rom I was using and it continued when I restored my nan so I thought maybe upgrading to the latest OTA would resolve them.

Without knowing what you have done since you unlocked your phone, it is real hard to say what caused the weirdness. The only way, as far as I know, for you to get back up and running is:
to access fastboot,
make sure your phone is unlocked,
flash a recovery,
boot into the recovery,
run adb commands to set your ruu to 1.29
fastboot lock your phone again
run the RUU
reboot
unlock your phone again
reinstall a recovery
keep stock rom or flash a CDMA rom - one from this sprint htc one forum only!
That should set you up again and get you working.
I'm sorry i can't explain why things went wonky... it all really depends.
I already tried to reflash my recovery before I originally posted, all it does is say its going to recovery then it reboots. Without access to recovery IDK if I can RUU.
I was able to get into recovery but when I tried to install the RUU and it says it was good but when I reboot it is still just sitting at the HTC logo.

I will provide you with some steps to take, however; with out seeing things hands on I am just guessing. I am willing to use teamviewer to help you out this evening if you cannot get this working.
Here are the steps as I think they should work to get you back up and running.
**Make sure your phone is unlocked. (it should display ***UNLOCKED*** at the top of the bootloader screen)
if you ARE unlocked do the following: (+++see below if you are NOT unlocked+++)
1. from bootloader select fastboot - connect phone to computer. fastboot should change to fastboot usb when you have a good connection.
on your computer:
2. open a command window and navigate to the folder where adb and fastboot are located
3. type in "fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxx.zip" where xxxxxxxx.zip is the name of recovery zip file without quotes. Make sure you download a good copy appropriate for your phone.
4. type fastboot reboot
on your phone:
5. once it is rebooted and in bootloader select recovery and boot into recovery.
on your computer:
6. once your phone shows recovery main screen, then on your computer at the command prompt type: adb shell
7. no matter what the resulting prompt looks like type: echo "1.29.651.10" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 bs=1 seek=160
8. no matter if it errors or not type: adb reboot bootloader
9. type: fastboot oem lock
10. type: fastboot oem rebootRUU
11. type fastboot flash zip xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxxxxx.zip is the name of the ruu.zip file.
12 reboot your phone once that is successful!! If you get the "flush image again immideately" error message then repeat step 11. then reboot your phone.
you should now be running a stock sprint phone.
you can now unlock your phone again and reinstall a recovery.
to unlock your phone the second time:
13. boot your phone into bootloader then go to fastboot - make sure the phone is connected to the computer
14. on your computer type in: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
15. on your phone select unlock with volume rocker and press power once unlock is selected
16. on computer type: fastboot flash recovery xxxxxxxxx.zip where xxxxxxxxxx.zip is the same recovery zip file we used above in step 3
17. reboot your phone and you are now unlocked and you have a custom recovery installed and you can download a CDMA compatible rom to your phone and install it with the recovery like normal. or you can continue to run stock.
MAKE SURE YOU ONLY DOWNLOAD CDMA COMPATIBLE ROMS FROM THE SPRINT HTC ONE FORUMS.
enjoii!!
+++if you are NOT unlocked+++
try the following:
step 13
step 14
step 15
step 16
step 4
step 5
step 6-17
make sure you complete all the way through 17 after you do step 6. good luck and let me know what your results are.
Again, if this does not work for you, then I am happy to teamviewer with you to fix your problem.

Thanks MrFixit for the help, I was able to RUU and am now in the clear. What do you think happened when I tried to install the OTA zip?

The only thing I can think of is that it might have been a bad download. Did you check the md5?

Have manually updated my HTC ONE M7 to FW 4.19.401.11 following these steps from the thread here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823...
1. Re-lock your bootloader (this will most probably wipe content of your device)
2. Copy downloaded .zip to fastboot.exe location (e.g. c:/SDK/platform-tools/fastboot.exe)
3. Re-name .zip file to firmware.zip
4. Open command prompt
5. Boot your device in fastboot mode (vol down + power ===> fastboot)
6. Connect device to the PC
7. In command prompt cd to fastboot.exe location
8. Make sure you have correct modeid and cidnum (type: fastboot getvar all)
9. Type: fastboot oem lock (if your device is not relocked yet)
10. Type: fastboot oem rebootRUU and wait for device to reboot
11. Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
12. Sometimes flashing for the first time doesn't work, so flash firmware.zip again just to make sure.
13. Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
14. Type: fastboot reboot
15. Unlock your bootloader and flash custom recovery if you are going to use custom ROM.
But now the phone doesnt appear to boot im able to get into bootloader by holding down the volume button, any ideas why i cant boot into the HTC ONE do i need to re unlock the boot loader? If so how do you re unlock the boot loader after relocking it please?
EDIT: Im guess the phone doesnt boot as i need to flash a custom ROM??....if so do i have to re unlock the bootloader first?

1- Why did you relocked your bootloader?
2- ''HTC Bootloader Unlock Application'' doesn't say much. I guess you are referring to a toolkit which is not recommended to use
3- Why can't you unlock again? Get your identifier token from fastboot en send it to htcdev. Then flash your unlock code bin file to unlock your phone again. Then youll be able to flash a recovery and a rom...
I CAN`T flash unlock code because my phone not connected to my pc until I relock this!!!!!

not sure what you are trying to say here mate.
your phone doesn't need to be unlocked to be able to ''connect it'' to your pc. You should be able to use fastboot from bootloader to
1- get your identifier token
2- flash the unlock_code.bin to unlock it again
if you can't 'communicate with the phone using fastboot in bootloader, your drivers are not installed correctly on your computer.
in windows device manager, it should be listed as ''My HTC'' if your drivers are ok.
