[Q] [HELP] FastBoot unroot.

Hey!
So I just got my HTC One yesterday and I'm currently stock on the HTC logo boot screen. I spent the last 2 days on the internet trying to figure out how to fix that issues. It seems that the phone doesn't have any Rom or firmware install on it. I kind don't know how everything work. I don't mind if my phone is root or unroot all I want is to make it work. I followed different method on Youtube none of the seem to work. From what I know it seems that the device is a Rogers device but when I try to unroot it I got a 12 signature fail. Every other thread have broken links and kinda don't fix my issues. Please help me I'm really desperate.
Thank you,

Can you access the boot loader?
Is it locked or unlocked?
Do you have a custom recovery?
What were you trying to do when you got stuck in the bootloop?
The more info you can give us the more we can help.

Hey Cory!
Thanks for answering to my post.
To answer your question,
Yes I do have access to bootloader, fastboot and recovery.
I can use command on my pc to run some fastboot command also.
When I try to use recovery I got stuck at the red triangle alert.
I do not have any backup of my device. Also I dont have Cwm on the device.
It looks like a completely emptu phone. i cant even manage to use it as a disk mode to put a file on it.
I was only trying to unroot it to put back the android stock that came with the HTC One when you purchase it.
Also at the moment I'm able to unlock or lock the device.
Thanks for your help. i have to be honest I'm noob with android.
Thanks,

can you go to fastboot, and then run "fastboot getvar all", and post the results here to see the details of your device (remove the IMEI and serial number before posting)

So I manage to have clockworkmode on my HTC One.
I'm not stuck at the point of putting a firmware. I don't mind which one I just want my phone to work.
Bootloader is Unlocked.
When I plug the device to my computer I can't manage to put anything on it and dab doesn't seems to work properly.
I'm a noob so maybe I don't do it properly.
Thanks,

If you're a n00b why did you even attempt it in the first place? Surely you should know what you're doing before jumping in blind?

Actually the reason why I jump into it is cuz I got it from a friends for a couple of hundred dollar and it was like that.
I'm just trying to fix it and also try to understand and learn.
But thanks for the comment

If you manages to get cwm working you can adb push a ROM.
Download any stock ROM from the android development section of the One.
Android Revolution HD or InsertCoin are two favorites.
Put the .zip file in the same folder as your adb and fastboot files. I'm assuming you got adb and fastboot set up since you have cwm now, if not I can elaborate.
Rename the file rom.zip.
Open a command prompt in the folder that has adb and fastboot.
(Hold shift and right click, select open command prompt here)
Connect the phone while its booted into recovery.
Type "adb devices"
You should see your phones serial and the word recovery.
Now type "adb push rom.zip /sdcard/"
It will look like its frozen, leave it alone, it can take up to fifteen minutes or more.
Eventually it will tell you its done.
Unplug the phone and select full wipe or factory reset (inside cwm, not in the boot loader).
Also wipe both caches under advanced wipe.
Select flash or install from SD card, and pick ROM.zip.
Let it do its magic, or follow the prompts if it has an aroma installer. The more mods you choose, the farther from stock it will be, and the more likely it is to have bugs.
Good luck.

HTC One Looks Dead/Bricked - What to do next

*** SOLVED - Problem was my own stupidity ***
Got the HTC One a couple of days ago. Came back to Android after a few months on iPhone. Figured I'd jump right back into rooting and flashing custom ROMs.
Anyway, unlocked the phone, wanted to install Android Revolution 51, tried to upgrade firmware, and that's when things went sideways. Now, I can't do anything. Can Fastboot, but can't ADB. Have tried to load every driver in the book, but to no avail. CID is CWS_001 if that helps. Have been at this for a day and a half now. I need ideas.
thoughts?

Then you should be able to restore it with ADB... No idea how yet, but as far as I know your not completely dead here.... I may however be completely out to lunch here...

Would be very grateful. I agree, it would seem logical that I could ADB my way out, but at the moment, ADB doesn't recognize the device.

It does sound more like a recognition issue than a hardware problem to me. Also, correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't you be using fastboot rather than adb to get out of this situation? Adb is pretty much only usefull with a booted rom in my experience.

I don't have a ROM loaded in the Virtual SD. And unless I'm mistaken, I can really only use ADB sideload at this point to load one up

Can you get into basic HTC recovery on the phone? I'm assuming you can if you can get fastboot working.
If so can't you just reflash a actual recovery from there, and then a rom from that? Apologies if this is completely irrelevant, I base all my android knowledge off my Desire.

Yeah now it does. I know if windows can see it you should be OK.
Try adb reboot recovery or adb reboot bootloader
Right be able to get into something there.

Htc One stuck on Logo, need 1.29.666.17 RUU to flash or another solution

EDIT: This is the Htc One (M7) btw. Guess it was obvious because of the version it came with out of the box, but just to clear any confusion.
EDIT 2: Meant to say my Device was S-On* NOT S-Off. Sorry.
So I'm completely new to Android, and yesterday was the day I got my first ever Android device.
It came with Sense 5 and android 4.1.2 out of the box.
After a while of playing around with my new phone I started checking for updates to get it to the latest version. When I first check it showed that a small update was available and I started downloading it. I noticed that when this update was installing it would first go into that screen where it shows that phone with a green arrow and a download bar, and then all of a sudden it would restart and go back to the Htc One Logo. It did this a few times before finally completing the upgrade.
I checked for updates again and this time it showed me Android 4.3 + Sense 5.5. I downloaded and started installing the upgrade. It did the same thing as last time but I decided I'd power off the device (Figured out later this was what caused this whole problem) and power it on again. After I did that it was stuck on the Htc Logo.
I went on the bootloader and tried factory resetting but it just brought me back to the Htc Logo again.
I found a few threads telling me to hook up my device to the computer, load up fastboot and use cmd to clear the cache and it should work. That failed too however.
After talking with a few of my friends who happen to be android experts, they told me that I because I had turned off the device in the middle of the update I had somehow corrupted some system partition thing and I'd need to flash the stock rom on once again.
After almost 24 hours of research, I've gotten to a point where I've almost figured it out but I hit a bump. My device is not rooted and is S-On (Bootloader used to be locked but in the process of fixing it).
According to my friends because my device is S-On I won't be able to flash Custom roms and need a RUU file that is specific to my carrier. I found out that I basically need the RUU file that has the same number as 1.29.666.17
This apparently is almost non-existent on the web. This is the bump I've hit and I have no idea what I can do now.
Any help would be appreciated.
Also note that I am incredibly new to android. Never rooted or anything in my life before. I've had quite the learning curve in the past day though.

your going to have to unlock the bootloader and flash custom recovery and a rom to attempt to get s-off so you can convert your phone to the international or developer version

That was my mistake, I did mean to say S-On.
I did try to get the S-Off using an Htc One Toolkit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364445)
However right after Step 1a (downloading Firewater), I moved to step 1b (rebooting my device) it kept saying "adb reboot
error: device not found"
I googled this and it told I had to enable USB debugging, which I can only do through the settings of the phone apparently. And I can't access it so I'm not sure if I can still S-Off my device.

When you enable USB debugging does a pop up box come up on your phone when connecting to your computer to allow the computer to connect?

See that's the thing, I can't enable USB Debugging because my phone is stuck on the bootlogo.
I don't think there's a way for me to enable USB debugging without having access to there phone, or is there?

Alright so did what you said, successfully flashed the new recovery.
Sideloading seems to be giving me some trouble though.
After I "swiped to sideload" I get this

Full SELinux support is present.
E: Unable to mount '/cache'
E: Unable to mount '/cache'

Been stuck at that for about 15minutes now.
About 5 minutes in I thought I was maybe supposed to use my pc to sideload, but cmd said "error: device not found".

Didn't work. Ran the file, used device manager to manually locate the files in Program Files (x86) and double clicked "HTC". Just keeps saying it couldn't find the driver software for my device.
But if I understand correctly, all I have to do is find a way to update the drivers and I'll be able to sideload the Rom, and hopefully I'll have a working HTC One once again?

Sounds like you haven't read anything about, rooting, S-Off, firmware,hboots,roms, etc..
Suffice to say most people on this forum have more trouble going back to full out of the box stock than anything else.. compared to that, unlocking bootloader, rooting and flashing roms is a doddle(very easy). Suggestion...Read first.

I have not :/
I usually do my research before attempting to do anything to any of my devices, but since I had no intention of rooting/S-ff/Unlocking bootloaders I'm just incredibly clueless. Did some reasearch and it does look like sideloading Roms work on S-On devices. :good:
I have a question for you, or anyone else that knows, but the guy I sent my phone to repair told me the following:
Since I couldn't find the RUU specific to my device, I tried using a Nandroid backup that someone uploaded (This was for Bell Mobile). According to him, he says I must have tried flashing a corrupt rom or something so it's no longer an easy fix. He wants me to pay $130 so he can send it back to some factory to get it fixed. He's telling that this is no longer a soft-brick, but a hard-brick (note that the phone can still access the bootloader, recovery, etc).
I'm pretty sure this guys trying to milk me out of my money, so I told him I'd pick it up tomorrow and get back to him later.
I just want to make sure that what he's saying isn't true though, since I'm not exactly knowledgeable about this and I have a pretty good chance of being wrong.

I sideloaded the rom you linked me through a USB Otg Cable. Thanks a lot for your help!
Now I just want to get it back completley to stock.
If I backup my phone through this rom and then go back to stock, I'm assuming my backup file will restore all my contacts/settings/photos etc?

Having an issue with S-Off. Help please?

I did a stupid thing: I unlocked my AT&T m7 (which I thought also made it S-OFF). I then installed a recovery and wiped the phone. After CM11 wouldn't install I realized that the phone was still S-ON. I have no OS on it to boot into. Any ideas on how I can get an HTC ROM on there so I can run the revone and grant it S-OFF? Thanks in advance!

Well if you have a custom recovery, just flash any rom. Or did I misunderstand something?

Ah okay. When you connect your phone to your computer in recovery, what does "adb devices" give you? Nothing?

If even after re-flashing the TWRP.img it doesn't work, I would just do an RUU and go from there. Bad thing about not having an SD card slot

I've tried RUU but it keeps failing. Can you recommend a specific RUU to try?

Just to let you know, that rom is pretty old. You'll need to do some updating. If you don't want to do that, you can also download this one :
DOWNLOAD
But it might not work. It's worth a try though.

Neither of those worked. Here is the error I get: Link.
I guess my next step is to try to find my otg cable and try to load a rom from there, right?

EDIT:
I managed to get adb working in recovery using a 32-bit VM (I now remember the problems I've had in the past with x64 and adb). I installed Viper, used rumrunner to achieve S-OFF. I am still unable to flash cm11. PhilZ/CWM gives me Status 0 and TWRP just says failed. Any idea what my next step should be?
ANOTHER EDIT:
Okay, I'm able to install an older m7att build but i can't install any of the unified m7 roms.

Have you got fastboot working?

You should be able to install any rom. Try flashing TWRP again? Whats the exact error in TWRP.

I tried TWRP 2.6.3.3 and 2.7.0.0. Here is the error in TWRP: Link
EDIT: See this. Under the section "Recovery Update" I flashed the unofficial TWRP 2.7.0.8 and it flashed the latest nightly. I guess I'm good to go now. Thanks to all for all of the help!!

Just to let you know, the error when it says "Too many links" happens when you use a USB 3 port. Android and adb don't play very nice with usb 3.

Easiest way would be to RUU...they can be found in Android Development, use 3.04.651.2 or higher.

when you say use 3.04 or higher could you tell me if this would work?

That one is older(version 1.29.651.10) then what you are currently on...so no you cannot use it.
This one matches what you are currently on.

The higher the number the newer it is.
They can all be found HERE.

Try installing HTC Sync Manager it will install drivers needed.
Once it's installed you no longer need it so you can uninstall from your PC if you wish.

Hey im, still getting error 170, with ruu version 2.0.5.2013. I already installed htc sync manager. I get to the part where it says verifying info on your pda phone.... please wait.
but after that it says error 170, usb connection error.
My phone is tagged with ****tampered*** , relocked, and security warning
Do you have any suggestions. (I have another htc one if i need to install some driver on my pc.
When i start my phone it only boots into bootloader. do i need an os on the phone for this?

Only other things I can suggest are...
Make sure you are using the latest RUU.
Try a different cable OEM is best.
Try a different USB port (USB2 work the best).
Try a different PC.

I finally got the ruu to recognize my device, but it says from image version(3.04.651.2) to : image version then its just blank.
Is there supposed to be something there?

Yeah the version number of the RUU you are trying to flash.
Maybe you are using an older RUU?

I think i was using the 3_04_651_2 one that you suggested.
