Hi i was wondering if anyone can help me?
I have just purchased a HTC One and unlocked the bootloader and rooted it, but the problem is i am on software 1.28.161.7 on vodafone but i want to update as my phone keeps asking me to.
But everytime i click on install update it resets back to the bootloader
Am i doing something wrong
Rule number one of rooting: don't take OTA updates

so how can i update i have relocked the bootloader
You'd have to flash the stock recovery. There's one floating around in the development section

I use the HTC automatically upgraded my phone to upgrade to 4.0.3, but my company's software only in the operation of the 2.3.6 version, would like to ask whether there are ways to drop back to the 2.3.6 version it?
I think you have to root it and delock the bootloader after that you have to install the RUU for your device and then relock the bootloader but I dont think your company will allow this becouse you lose warranty by doing this. You will only get it back if you relock the bootloader and erase the Root.
Theres no way to go back from official ICS to gingerbread untill we can S-Off and flash the old hboot back.

If you are not unlocked and the HTC software upgrade went through, you should contact your system admin and let them know what happened. Perhaps it is time for them to update their system? After all, if you root your phone, you will lose your warranty.
Hi all,
I'm wanting to flash my HTC one 32gb, UK Three network, with the international software so I can receive updates much quicker rather than waiting for my carrier to approve them as well.
First off will I need S-off for this to work because of the carrier lock? I've only ever had unlocked phones before, when I have rooted them. Also what are the best tools for the job? I am looking for that lastest stock international stock ROM that I can root. I'm fine with command line tools like; fastboot, adb ect. Been off the rooting scene in a while since I had a galaxy nexus, with its unlock boot loader option
Thanks.

This is your best option for rooting
You can't have s-off yet not done yet

So how can I unlock the boot loader so I can flash a custom recovery? I do not have the option of going to fastboot and unlocking it like on the nexus. Also mine is a carrier version so i assume I cannot unlock the bootloader from the HTC dev site.

Thanks guys I've done it! Unlocked it the via the HTC dev site and flashed the clockwork mod recovery, then flashed the latest stock ROM. So now I should not have to wait for my network carrier to deliver the updates. Did it on my macbook using fastboot and adb.
So for future reference for anyone else;
HTC one on carrier Three UK, flashed with latest stock ROM with no problems.
No need for S-off either.

That is where you might have troubles. Because the OTA updates will still look at your CID and if your CID doesn't match up (which it won't) because the update is for the CID in the UK region and your CID is for example the Australian region then the update won't install.

Hi, can i ask where you got the Stock ROM from? I rooted mine the other day, then decided i wanted to unroot it, and in trying to do so I ended up using the wrong RUU and now the Wifi and Camera dont work. I am an idiot.
So ive decided ill settle for a stock ROM for now until someone comes along with the UK Three RUU.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
I need to return my htc one to ee because I think it has a faulty speaker. I have been looking at the various methods to return to stock and have and have managed, using revone to s-off the device.
I am completely confused as to how to proceed now. Is there a specific ruu/rom that I need to flash for uk ee?
I have root and Android revolution 10.0 installed and a custom recovery.
One last point, will I always have the ugly htc unlock message on boot or can this be solved also if I am s-off.
thanks in advance
Hi Guys,
I rooted my HTC One previously but I wanted to update my phones android software so I can't much remember what I did, but
I tried to unroot it to get back to stock but I don't think I did this successfully.
My HTC One android version is 4.2.2
HTC Sense version is 5.0
am i right in thinking there are more up to date versions on the three UK network for my HTC ONE? But every time
i click check for software updates on my phone there aren't any that appear??
I'm really new to this, thank god i didn't brick my phone when i first rooted it, if i could i'd love to get
back to stock but I tried with no success, i really want to have an updated phone without having to
mess around with it anymore.
I believe i have attached an image more more information such as my baseband and kernel version.
could someone please give me step by step instructions on how to go back to stock so i can receive
updates without these issues. Thanks in advance guys
Kind regards

If I was you I would look to s-off your device, that way you can always have the latest rom version from XDA you can sometimes wait a long time for Networks to release the latest version to update over the air.
There are some very nice stock roms out there but if you don't wait to take the risk you need to unroot, restore stock recovery and relock your device I believe.
If you had made a nandroid backup before rooting you could have restored to the nandroid stock rom and simply restored the recovery and relocked.

The ota is CID specific. It will come to your device when HTC release it for your specific CID if your phone is unbranded. If you have a carrier branded phone then the update will come when your carrier will be ready to push it. Don't forget you need stock recovery and unmodified /system files for the ota to install correctly (root should not be an issue, but you may have to re-root after the ota).
Also refer to this thread:

All discussions related to ota updates must be posted there.
hope it help
edit: btw you can find your cid with this command:
fastboot oem readcid
or using this app
Thank you, this has put to rest my anxiety. I will wait it out and get the real thing.
