THere you go

Going back to stock
What you need to know before going back to stock:
Your bootloader will never be "LOCKED" again. You can't restore it. You can only relock it.
"TAMPERED" text in bootloader will disappear only after proceeding method 2.
There are 3 main methods. All three will be described below.
Method 1 - only for users with .401 devices (for more info click here - RUU variants)
Visit this thread - [ROM] HTC One *STOCK* ROM
Download stock odexed version of most recent firmware and recovery.img
Move recovery.img to c:\mini-sdk location
Boot your device in recovery mode (power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "RECOVERY")
In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard" and "choose zip from sdcard".
Navigate to the location of stock ROM (zip) package and confirm flashing procedure.
After flashing process is complete, reboot the device in bootloader mode.
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You have now stock boot, system and recovery partitions. Time to relock your bootloader.
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock

mini-sdk: http://goo.gl/T6InE (credit mike1986.)
make a folder in C such as: minisdk. Then extract everything in the compressed file to C:\minisdk. You should have fastboot.exe and adb.exe in that folder (together with other api file)
now, you should move the recovery image and odexed rom to C:\minisdk and follow the steps in my previous post.
Please read whole process before starting so you can have a clear picture of what you're gonna do

ive flashed stock recovery and stock rom and still showing tampered, does this mean i have to reopen the bootloader on htcdev download another ruu that matches my baseband and do it all again?

I suggest you to S-OFF your device so you can remove the tamper message/lock/relock/unlock your bootloader easily. Go to One Original Android Dev forum, search for a thread "s-off with revone" (usually at first page) and follow the instruction

Hello community!!
I'm new to the HTC/Incredible S world, I have a rooted/cfw LG P500 and now I bought this great phone. Problem is that I updated it to the last official version before this try.
So I went to the official site and I followed successfully the HTC site steps to unlock the bootloader (golden card?) and now I'm trying to follow the guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385084
But I have some problems.
First of all clearly the revolutionary program doesn't work (HBOOT 2.0).
I booted to the bootloader (power+volume down) and I had the error "main version is older" then I copied on the SD card the file for the recovery PG32IMG_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_KT_KR_2.32.1010.1_Radio_20.2810.30.085AU_3805.06.03.16_M_release_199684_signed.zip, I renamed it PG32IMG.zip, it loads it but when I press recovery it gives me an allert icon (the phone with a red triangle + red "!" ) and it does nothing.
I installed the SuperUser app like it is written in the post but when I type SU under the adb shell and it gives me "permission denied".
What could I do?
Is it even possible to downgrade it to a rootable/customable version?
If someone write a guide for rooting with the last update installed from original s-on step to step will be very util and a lot of people will be gratefull!
Inviato dal mio HTC Desire usando Tapatalk
Bootloader unlock and goldcard are 2 seperate things. Bootloader unlock is required at the moment for flashing recovery and superuser for rooting the phone.
Gold card is required for flashing another carriers rom.
Read this thread about recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1104765
After that you can enter recovery mode and flash a superuser zip file http://goo-inside.me/superuser/
My guide should be able to downgrade your rom and get s-off after that (if after researching you decide you require it) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1373697
Hope this helps
Thanks, I'm going to try this as soon as I can, I'll write back the results
edit:
It seems like I can't even pass the first step, the 4EXT Recovery Updater doesn't work, it crushes at EVERY menu item....
(I waited 5+minutes and I had the internet connection on).
I checked and the boot loader says "unlocked". Notice that my device is, of course, NOT rooted (at least for what I know for "rooted", it is still unlocked by the HTC official method)....
you need root to use the recovery updater.
download the recovery image and flash it in fastboot
Thanks it is finally working!!
I totally forgot that you flash with fastboot via windows console, not within the bootloader....
I hope to finally install something tonight, I'll post some news later.
Thanks again!
edit:
Nothing..I went successfully to the RUU downgrade part but that doesn't work, I tried from the normal system and it blocked because of the hboot version, then I tried within the phone fastboot phase and it blocked again, giving the security failed error...

Hi!
I have successfully rooted my phone on the last update 2.3.5
The steps I made:
1. Going to htcdev and unlocked the bootloader
2. Flashed a recovery image from clockworkmod.com
3. Installed SuperUser from clockworkmod.com using recovery
I collected the information from a few threads here and had no problem.
I didn't tested custom roms, all I wanted was to root and worked just fine.
I can detail my steps if someone need it.
edit:
It seems I cannot post the images, too noob ....
Anyway:
I had a photo of the phone in the custom recovery mode, another of the phone with the 4EXT recovery successfully flashing his recovery, another of the script of your post running with this message:
(no errors)
Do you have an unlocked bootloader from htcdev.com (I have)
y OR n:y
<waiting for device>
...
(bootloader) Lock successfully..
FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.239s
Note: run the RUU in fastboot mode
If all steps etc etc
Now if I try to run RUU NOT in fastboot mode I receive the message:
The Utility of ROM udating can't update the Android device.
Take a valid ROM updating Utility and try again
(I'm translating from Italian)
If I try to go to fastboot after running the script I need to go to hboot using volume down+power since you can go to fastboot only through bootloader and HIS first step is to check the bootloader file (am I right?)
so, since it is again LOCKED the custom boot file I was using PG32IMG_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_KT_KR_2.32.1010.1_Radio_20.2810.30.085AU_3805.06.03.16_M_release_199684_signed
doesn't work anymore and the old one neither so I have to unlock it again and it goes the loop......
So this is the situation, I hope I will be able to post some image soon...

Thanks, I did too the 3 steps, rooting my device successfully...
But I think I need to do a total S-OFF (deeper than the HTC one) to use the CFWs.
It should be like: follow the above 3 steps and:
4. use some script/console command to prepair the device
5. DOWNGRADE it to 2.2 or something
6. use the "revolutionary" Utility to S-OFF permanently
7. flash the ROMS from the recovery
I cannot pass the 4th step.

You don't need s-off for CFW's, just the unlocked bootloader. I cannot help you any further until I see screenshots as I'm getting lost in your descriptions. Ctrl prtscrn, paste in paint.
Well, I have the screenshots but I can't post web links in the forum (new user).
Let's see if I can flash some cfw in the mean time
Now I can post

After you flash a custom ROM in recovery, you have one last step to do to prevent the hang. You extract the boot.img file from the ROM's zip file and then manually flash it in FASTBOOT mode on the phone:
FASTBOOT flash boot [path to boot.img]
That totally solved the problem
Thank you ALL!!!

from your pc use fastboot to flash this recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1104765
copy to sd card the superuser file:
http://goo-inside.me/superuser/
enter recovery mode and flash the zip
Then if u want to flash a custom rom you dont need to downgrade, just copy the zip into the sd card, flash it, copy on the sd card the boot.img you find inside the rom zip file and reboot in fastboot (power+volume down)
FASTBOOT flash boot [path to boot.img]

I need to return my Htc One to stock, the firmware is 1.29.401.12. I have located the only apparent version thanks to XDA but its the OTA version. When I unzip it it does not appear to have all instructions ie;start. When I downloaded the RUU to my phone more information was present. Can the RUU be flashed directly from the phone ? Hope this makes some kind of sense !
thanks

...guys I was looking around, but couldn't find answer for my little problem. I have rooted HTC One, but rom is stock (didn't plan to change it at all just needed root), but the problem is today a new update came up, and when I tried to install it, it simple didn't do anything.
I go on Install now, phone restarts in recovery mode, then it gives me Installation aborted, and I have 3 thingies, - No; - Yes - Disable recovery flash: - +++++Go Back+++++
Whatever I choose, it just restarts and asks again for same recovery. What shall I do?
In console stands this:
ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.3.4
E: Invalid command argument
E: Invalid command argument

So I need to flash stock recovery, then to lock bootloader, and then I guess I'm good to go!?!
Can I flash it from custom recovery, or do I need to flash it differently? Anyone has link for it, or are all stock recoveries same (I mean from different providers)?

You need to install stock recovery using fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Install stock recovery like I said above, once done type the following :- "fastboot oem lock"
You should be good to go then for the update. Re-locking your bootloader doesn't wipe your files either, only unlocking wipes the internal storage.
...OK, so here is what I did. From ADB restored the original recovery.img, then lock bootloader, and viola. Thanks guys for helping me out.

What is all this about S-Off and HTCDev ... You unlock your bootloader through HTCDev, S-Off is NOT something that can be done any other way than Revone and Moonshine and NOT on Hboot 1.54 ... Yet.
I've seen several people mention S-Off and HTCDev in the same breath and I think some of you are getting it all mixed up. Unlocking the bootloader and going S-Off are not the same thing and only unlocking the bootloader can be done through the HTCDev website.
I'm pretty sure HTC aren't going to help you remove the security from your device.
I stand corrected you are correct I had soff before that's why I guess it wasn't reset after update

Original recovery and lock oem doesn't help.
Lads,
Would someone give me a hand here please.
There is a major update for HTC One.
I've flashed original recovery and locked back the phone.
Now it's downloading the update, then goes into reboot and opens fastboot bootloader, instead of installing the update.
What am i doing wrong here?
Thanks in advances
Hi,
I have the same problem as OP.
However the instructions in the replies are terribly confusing, I don't even know where to start!
Someone could do a step-by-step summary for less expert (or just android-retarded) people ?
Thanks a lot!
further to my post above
You need to be on stock recovery. Figure that out and you should be good.
Looking at the various guides somehow related to stock recovery doesn't make sense to me.
There's too many things I am not aware of such as how to flash the stock recovery, if the process will wipe all data, what is a fastboot command etc. etc. Has anybody ever created an easy guide to assess the problem?

I have HBOOT 1.54 and S-OFF with rumrunner_HTC_0.5.0

further to my post above

For the sake of common knowledge and in case it may help other unknowing people like me, I'll post what I did here:
I sort of mixed these two guides: this one and this.
Premise:
A. It was impossible to make this whole thing run on my Win8.1 x64 computer. It would never recognize my Fastboot USB device plugged in. I had to use bloody WINXP x86 on my old-ass netbook....
B. Somehow I still had my fastboot/adb compiled folder that I used back in time to root my HTC at first.
C. My phone was Tampered, Unlocked, with HBOOT (i think 1.44 ?) and most definitely S-OFF I would say ? Still don't know for sure.
D. I updated from 4.1.2 through 4.2 to 4.3.
At the 4.2 upgrade the phone went on black screen twice (1st time at ~25%, and 2nd time after 100% was complete). Panic is useless in that case. I went to the bathroom, blasted the strongest lights I had and exposing the phone to the lights, I pressed the power button til the capacitative buttons blinked. After a while the phone rebooted and resumed exactly from the point it blacked out before.
The update to 4.3 went smooth as oil instead.
This is each step I did, following the quoted guides above:
1. Extract the stock recovery file (should be .img) that can be found in the OTA update firmware.zip file, in the firmware package (in some other thread it's explained the path of this file). Place the file in the folder with your fastboot commands.
2. Make sure fastboot and USB Debugging are unchecked on your phone in power settings>fastboot.
3. Power down phone by holding power button and pressing shut down.
4. Once phone is shut down, power phone into bootloader by holding volume down button and pressing power button.
5. Once in the bootloader navigate until it says fastboot usb (must have phone connected to computer).
6. Open up a command prompt where your fastboot commands are located.
7. Type the following with the filename of the stock recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>
8. Navigate in the bootloader menu to the reboot option to restart your phone.
9. Download the latest SuperSU and place it on your sdcard.
10. Perform the OTA update normally.
11. Once it finishes installing, power down the phone like before and get back to fastboot usb.
12. Flash back the custom recovery using fastboot (I used latest CWM available):
Code:
fastboot flash recovery <filename>
or
Code:
fastboot flash zip <recovery>.zip
13. Then type :
Code:
fastboot reboot
14. Enter recovery by navigating with the volume buttons. Once in recovery, flash the zip of the SuperSU file you previously downloaded.
15. Restart once flashing is complete.

How to install OTA
If s off and super cid don't lock your boot loader again leave it unlocked
Make sure your device is unrooted and matching cid.
Make sure all missing apps that was lost when unlocking bootloader is there in /data/preload/apps.
Make sure u have stock recovery and reboot to it and if u r doing it manually all u have to do is rename ota to update.zip and go to stock recovery then hold power and double press vol up for options then go to install from ext sd card and navigate to the file and make sure u put it on the root of the ext sd card.
How to install firmware
Extract firmware file from Ota and put it to the root of the ext sd card and rename it to P068IMG.zip then reboot to boot loader when ur there use power key to select bootloader and the file will load just follow instructions and u will be updated.
Option two is that u can use a pc using fastboot type fastboot oem rebootRUU then when it's loaded type fastboot flash zip firmware.zip it will install if it says flush again repeat the fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. when ur done type fastboot reboot-bootloader to check if your firmware is updated
S-ON Details on how to flash a rom
Download the rom and copy to your phone
Download fastboot tools if you don't have them
Extract the adb folder in the fastboot zip to somewhere (E.g. C:\adb)
Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder
Connect your phone to your pc
Hold shift and right-click somewhere in the adb folder, select "Open command window here"
Restart your phone to bootloader, then select fastboot.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
Type "fastboot erase cache"
Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Type "fastboot erase cache" again
Type "fastboot reboot recovery" to get to CWM or TWRP, whichever you have installed
Backup your system, data, and cache
Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system
Install the rom.
Good lookin out for this...Will be needed once Kit Kat is released for our phone.

Hi, i have three questions, i am 901s, not supercid, s-off, unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery and rooted...if i am correct the steps are:
1. I´have already downloaded the update in the phone that prompted when i search for updates in the system.
2. I have to flash first the recovery from 901s...that says 4.4.2 or do i need other recovery for 4.3?
3. I should go to the recovery and it just updated?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
version 2:
1. Flash stock recovery.
2. Put the update in the external sd card and rename update
3. Update trough recoveryvand select the file in the sd?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
with the firmware version, i don´t understand the difference between instal only the firmware instead of the ota. what are the differences? and last. how can i do this with twrp and flash a zip?
Thanks in advance :good:

Query
Hi, I am still on Stock ROM but I have made following changes
current state
- Rooted (So shows Tampered)
- Flashed TWRP
- Removed some APK files from the build after rooting because I wanted to remove apps.
- Downloaded the new OTA update from the link.
Clarity on:
a) Can I use TWRP manager app to install the OTA update?
OR
b) Do I simply flash stock recovery to install update?
OR
c) Clean STOCK ROM Flash. Clean Stock Recovery Flash. Then flash OTA new Android 4.4.2 KK update?
Also, wanted to check if I can go ahead with - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50923456&postcount=12 directly using TWRP Recovery? :S
Never mind - figured that I need to be on complete stock to apply the OTA successfully. -_-

Thanks man. Appreciate it. I was just a little impatient. Flashed Zarboz's .zip and the phone is working. Cheers! :good:
Need some help guys. I think I screwed up the process .. now my phone will not start.
When I power on my phone, the HTC logo will appear. After that it will slowly dim and stretch to the entire screen. Then the phone will restart again with the HTC logo appearing and the same process repeats.
I tried to load the bootloader and now there are 2 lines.
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
:cyclops::cyclops:
Tried factory reset but the same process as above repeats itself. No way I can reset the phone.
Any advise is greatly appreciated.

On my phone, when I go into bootloader I can see the following:

DLXP_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH

OS-2.18.707.2

I have downloaded this ROM -> OTA_DLXPLUS_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_hTC_Asia_HK_3.06.708.3-2.21.708.1_release_3558176bskc6u7eupsku7d on my SD card.
Since my phone is S-ON, I'm following the instructions on how to flash a rom.
At this step: Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder, I am stuck. I opened the rom zip and I can't find any boot.img.
Did I missed something?
---------- Post added at 09:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------
Also .. at this step I'm stuck.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
When I typed adb devices, it shows "List of devices attached" but it's empty (nothing), even though my phone is on FASTBOOT USB and I have installed HTC Sync Manager.

I downloaded this file -> dlxpul_signed_stock_1.11.708.1_CL215607_release-keys and put the entire zip file into the ext SD card of my phone.
Went to recovery, and chose Apply from SD card. Then the following message appeared.
Device_CW_Install: No CW files. Skip cw installation.
Write host_mode: 0 done
Check cid failed!
-- Invalid operation. --
Write host_mode: 0 done
And the phone will reboot, HTC logo appears and dims stretching vertically from top to bottom and reboots again.
Perhaps my boot.img was corrupted. Where should I copy the boot.img from to replace it?

But when i try to flash android revolution HD 81 - Android revolution 81 , he reads the rom, starts to flash it but screen doesnt respond. volume keys and power keys respond, but you can not say where is the key??
please help
i use TWRP v2.5.0.0
is there any way to update twrp? (latest roms require 2.6 twrp or higher???)
Download the 2.6.3.3 version of TWRP, rename the file to recovery, place the .img file in the folder on your PC where ADB is located and then flash in fastboot with fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. After that command completes, run fastboot erase cache. Then you can copy the ARHD 81 .zip to your phone and flash away.
after that i have tried:
So now you probably have screwed your partitions flashing an incompatible rom and recovery to your phone. Flash a twrp version for Sprint variant and then format data and flash a Custom rom compatible with Sprint phones (M7WLS)
Sprint TWRP here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7wls
Sprint roms here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spri...ne/development
i have flashed sprint twrp and sprint roms:
Bad Boyz Sprint ONE ROM 4.4.2 Sense 6 v1.0
ROM] Eragon v53Stable&clean|Sense/Aosp/GPE mix, ROM for the HTC One
Sprint_Eragon_V_54.0.0.zip
ViperOne 7.0.1
and they all have same issue.
installation went well. on first boot rom went to lock screen. after unlocking only white screen occurs with green htc logo.
after that dialer app reports crushing
what to do next?
do i need to unlock sprint sim since i live in croatia (europe)?
thanks for help
You should RUU and get everything working the way it should again.
Then flash a rom from the Sprint section.

NOTE: Read the threads, the instructions I'm giving you are just for you to gauge the difficulty of this task, to see if you can do it. Don't follow my instructions! Read the threads!
Read this first.
Then get this firmware.zip and put it in your adb/fastboot folder
source
reboot into fastboot mode with:
adb reboot bootloader
unless you don't have ADB, which you probably don't because you dun goofed when you flashed an Int'l ROM. In which case just press and hold power + vol down and pray.
once you're in fastboot mode, check to see if your device is recognized (may have to do this as root user in linux):
fastboot devices
This should list your device. If nothing comes up, check back here.
Now we're gonna lock your bootloader because RUU fails on unlocked bootloaders (security reasons). Skip this if you're S-Off (you shouldn't be, that's for advanced users).
fastboot oem lock
Now you're gonna go into RUU mode, which lets you modify all partitions of the phone (because you won't be in one):
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Now, we're going to flash the stock image to all the partitions of your device. This is the step that will undo your mistake!
fastboot flash zip firmware_version.zip
NOTE: Change the name of firmware_version.zip to whatever you download from above. If you get an error saying "flush again immdeiately," flash again immediately; just put in the exact same command.
Done. Just finalize with this:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
And then unplug and redo your entire root/ROM process from there.
Hopefully this mini guide will give you an idea of whether you'll need further help. @BD619 is a great fellow to ask.
thank you. you are a life saver. my phone is alive
iv unlocked the bootloader. what do i have to do now install custom rom?
