I bought my HTC one a day ago, soon as I powered it up I rooted the device to use titanium backup properly.
After a few hours I realised that I was running 4.1.2 and there is a 4.2.2 out (I believe).
The OTA update didn't find anything. So here are my questions, assuming that the OTA update doesn't find anything because I unlocked the bootloader and rooted.
Is there anyway to update my phone to 4.2.2 or 4.2.1 without having to unroot, lock bootloader and wipe?
If not, will unlocking the bootloader again after OTA wipe the device the downgrade it to 4.1.2?
If yes, how? How can I update this device to the latest version?
I know I can install custom roms, but I actually like the default rom look and feel. But I want the latest version, since there are some nice changes in the latest versions.
Secondary question, when investigating this, my software versions below, match up with the following RUU:
RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.29.707.3_R_Radio_4A .14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_311678_signed
But I bought my phone in the UK, Shouldn't it be the Europe version? I don't mind, since it's working. But it's just confusing me. I would have assumed it would be this version I require:
RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13. 3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.
My current software:

Any advice on this is appreciate, since the phone is so new, I don't want to screw it up by flashing the wrong thing.
Sorry for asking a question which no doubt has been asked a million times.:crying:

Hello guys.
First of all, my friend is having HTC One bought in Ireland but the phone have HTC One GPe firmware flashed by him self.
Everything was working perfectly well till now when I cannot install 4.4 update. It did come up via OTA but he also tried installing it manually via TWRP.
When he tried doing it manually, the TWRP have error. I thought this might be error in package during downloading (Yes, happend few times with packages for Sony phone's) but even redownloading the file have same result.
You can see the error in screenshot.

After failing updating via TWRP he waited for OTA. It come up today evening (27/11/2013) and everything would be fine but it also failed to install.
After OTA update downloaded the phone extract the system and then turn off and turn on entering recovery and nothing happened, He also couldn't turn on the phone.
He did even factory reset and now One doesn't show any update.
Do you have any idea how he can install it ? He's rooted, bootloader unlocked and he's on GPe 4.3 firmware.
Re-run 4.3 GPE RUU from Dev thread and wait for OTA, if you are S-OFF
that particular update you used must be flashed with the stock bootloader. get s-off with rumrunner (worked best for me) and flash back to stock, or any 4.4 rom of your choice
On 5.1.1 build LMY48T
When I received this phone on 16Nov I tried to let do the update to MM. It would D/L but fail in updating. (Just reboot after each try) I went ahead with 5.1.1 in unlocking and rooting with no problem. tried to allow it to update date again as it has been requesting and it now justs boots into TWRP. I wish to upgrade to MM but am stymied. Need Guru assistance.
First time around it might have been a corrupt download. Now it's because you're rooted and have TWRP installed. To be able to update through OTA your system needs to be fully stock.
To update now you need to flash a factory image (plenty of guides if you search). I recommend using fastboot, but you could also use a toolkit (Nexus Root Toolkit). If you don't want to wipe your phone, leave out the userdata image when flashing (or the "no wipe"-mode in NRT).
I did search but I have to admit I got alittle confused as there seemed to be different factory versions available. I did do updates to my Note 2 until they sneakily locked the bootloader on me (verizon Bastages) I will look at the guides more throughly now to educate myself better. Thank for the guidance.
Which one?

Either of them will work, bu to save you time, get the latest (MRA58R) because it's just going to prompt you to install those.
Following the advice my N6 is rocking MM and rooted. Thanks to all.
Awesome! Glad you got it working!
See pics. After unlocking I get a custom Android boot screen and the phone will not read any SIM. Appreciate if someone knows how to reverse this. Running Android 5.0 (can't root, install custom recovery, flash, or update from external storage).

WTH?
Did you unlock the bootloader?

No. AT&T and Verizon lock the bootloader starting with Android 5. I did find that the baseband version is "unkown", which is why the radio is not working or reading a SIM. See picture.
Hmmm
So your ril got corrupted some how is what it looks like to me.
What is "ril" the acronym for?
In any event, where can I get a stock 5.0 or higher ROM that I can hopefully flash from my sd card. All I'm seeing is 4.4.2. Apparently, the AT&T updates are OTA.
Hmmm
I'm out of town right now and can't find one on xda. Try sammobile.com. Don't try ro flash it via sdcard. Odin or adb sideload would be the way to go. I would also suggest rebooting into the built in recovery and resetting it that way.
Thank you. for the suggestions. Before posting the original thread I tried a factory re-set (volume up + home + power), as well as Odin, and neither worked.
AT&T has the bootloader locked tight on Android 5.0 and above.
Yes
That is unfortunately true. Where did you buy the phone? And do you live in the states?
Use Triangle Away apk.
It's US stock, original AT&T device. Worked fine with the exception of poor battery life after the 5.0 OTA upgrade untilit was unlocked.
I just recieved my imported AT&T s6 active and I'm super pleased by the phone!
The phone came with 5.1.1 preloaded and I'm assuming the bootloader is locked.
I've heard root is only available for 5.0 and root is a MUST for me can I downgrade with Odin and root?
Also does locked bootloader mean no flashing zips, right? Alas, no xposed?
Sorry, no root for you yet. Root only work on 5.0.1 and no downgrade. Thought you not necessarily need custom bootloader to flash zip, in S7 Active topic on XDA they do it through app, but still need root... Switch to s7A until your phone is new, or learn to live without root.

I've been trying to follow a method described in other forums and mentioned by many other xda users, but once I re flash stock firmware I don't have root access.
I suspect my problem is when running "ROOT_FIX.bat" having my phone on recovery.

I've no idea how to assess this.
Maybe this root method was just intended to be temporary for IMEI and CSC purpouses?
The forum I followed wasn't very explicative.
Hi there.
I updated my note 8 from 7.1.1 to 8.0, the base band now is on N950USQU2CQL1, however after update the phone fail a lot, I can''t use the camera zoom , the galaxy apps crashes every time, someone know how can I fix it?.
Note: the original baseband was sm950usqs2bqk2
Did you update via OTA? I mean, that firmware is the latest available for your device?, if that is the case, you can roll back to a previous oreo, take a look at sammobile

Yes via OTA applied from the SD card.
I tried to install the 7.1.1 againg using Odin but always says setup connection
You will not be able to roll back to nougat, you can only install firmwares with equal or higher bootloader versions, the number of the version is the ninth character in the firmware label
