Hello everyone.
I have the htc one with sense (with this rom -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023)
I have it unlocked with htcdev.com (S-ON).
I would like to try the Google edition, and I saw I can download the file from HTCDev.
I was just wondering how can I do it... is it like a normal rom? download file copy to "sd" and flash?
Do I need to do anything else?
after I have the Google edition, will I be able to receive official updates? (OTA)
my HTC one is originaly with sense, will there be any issue if I use the GE instead?
Cheers
You need the s-off and use this guide

thk for the reply...
Im ok flashing a "normal" rom... but this seems to take a lot more work.
So, just to see if I understand correctly:
1 get soff following
2 change my MID to PN0712000
3 change my CID to GOOGL001 (but instead of GOOGL001 i can use 11111111 ? why should I chose one over the other? any benefits?)
4 then reboot and flash Full conversion RUU ZIP (in the end of the guide)
to flash the Full conversion RUU ZIP i have to run the following commands right? not by using recorery "install zip from sd card"
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15.zip
fastboot flash zip RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15.zip
fastboot reboot
Where do I run these commands?
Last thing, will I be able to receive OTA updates from google?
Cheers
You run the commands from a command prompt that is opened from the directory on your PC where fastboot is located.

for sOFF can i folow this instead? http://qbking77.com/development/how-to-gain-s-off-on-the-htc-one-with-revone/
Yeah. Vomer's guide really is awesome though. Covers you from a-z
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
yes you can use that guide and i recommend you do S-OFF, however you wont need S-OFF to use the ROM, everything should work fine if you wipe data and flash just like you did for ARHD, if you use this Google Edition ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395
with S-OFF you can change the CID later if you want. i personally havent flashed the Google bootloader because i want to switch between sense and google and everything still works fine
what version is your HBOOT currently?

I think you need to fastboot one of the provided zips, there was reference they are signed. The s-off without the bootimg and hoot were no issues for me, think if you exclude the other stuff in that one, it will work, but might set up for an issue on next update. More will come the next few days, better to wait until ironed out, usually there are a few that brick until the firmware is better understood.
Anyway, the soff, no hoot, no bootimg did not cause any issues, extra flashes, or having to reload rom.
Sent from Taptalk on HTC One on some awesome custom Rom!
It's not fastboot per se, I'm pretty sure you have to flash new radios on the One with the RUU command (which I can't remember for the life of me, I think it's fastboot rebootRUU and then you can flash radio).
You have to flash one of the firmware zips and then either restore your backup, reflash the rom, or reflash your kernel if you have any problems - not sure if an early problem was resolved from just flashing the firmware

So I'm trying to flash a new RUU for GPE HTC One Jelly Bean 4.3. The RUU is suppose to work for unlocked devices; the person who posted the download links had two, with one for unlocked devices and the other for locked devices. I think I messed up somewhere because I had a custom kernel installed via .zip, then booted back to the stock GPE kernel with "fastboot flash boot boot.img"; the system booted up fine but the 3 dot menu was missing so I went back to the customer kernel. The system wouldn't get past the Google screen and now I'm trying to flash the RUU but it won't work. If I do it on my computer via commands, I get "<bootloader> zip info parsing," then "FAILED <remote: 99 unknown fail>". So now I'm in TWRP recovery with the RUU on my SD card; tried flashing it on my phone and it says "Updating partition details...", "E: unable to mount ' /data'", "E: unable to mount internal storage", E: unable to mount ' /data," then lastly "Error flashing zip." I wiped the cache, data, and system; it won't wipe the Dalvik cache and gives me the same error when I do it. Can someone help me?
Edit: When I also try to wipe via "fastboot -w" it comes up with an error saying "FAILED <remote: not allowed>.
You need S-off to ruu to another firmware that's not made for your particular model/carrier.
Once you s-off enter fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
(Firmware.zip being the actually name of the ruu zip)
It will begin to flash, then fail and say to flush image immediately. Simply press the "up" arrow on keyboard to repeat the exact same command. It will work the second time.
For some reason fastbooting a ruu in that mode always fails the first time, so you have to do it twice without exiting.
Good luck and enjoy

May be the alcohol but I'm having trouble keeping up lol. You're having questions with the hboot trying to s-off? If you can't s-off, nor ruu BC the firmware doesn't match with the most recent ruu then you may be stuck or hopefully someone with more advanced knowledge can help you a little better

For some reason Google firmware will flash on certain s-on phones when it shouldn't. First we need to know if this happened.
When booted into the boot loader, is the screen black or white?
Now if there's an RUU available for your cid and mid (an official ruu.exe not an unsigned zip) that is greater than the firmware version currently on the phone, flashing that will fix everything.
If not, head over to original android development and grab a GPE ROM ( you could also use sense or AOSP, but I'm assuming you want GPe) and attempt to flash the ROM in recovery just like you normally would.

So basically I accidentally put security back on BEFORE flashing back to stock so now I'm stuck here. The bootloader screen is black and since I upgraded to HBoot 1.54 via OTA update for stock Jelly Bean when I was S-Off, there is no compatible HBoot for me since the one for T-Mobile is 1.44 currently. My biggest worries right now is that I screwed something up with the partitions or if there's a bigger issue here because it's saying it can't mount the data and SD card, and I can't even wipe the phone via commands. If it's just the CID, MID, and HBoot not matching, then I'm not worried since I can still flash a custom ROM right?

This is why going back to s-on is almost always a bad idea. You can't flash any unsigned RUUs or firmware packages now, so you can't return your phone to stock.
It sounds like you may have corrupted your sdcard during all this. Try reformatting it from your PC. This will wipe all your data, but if it's corrupted, it's gone anyway. Then you can push a new rom and kernel and flash.

You still have an unlocked bootloader right?
Then I would just flash a custom recovery and "format sdcard" from there.
Then "adb push Rom.zip /sdcard/" (or sideload) and flash the Rom.
I personally use ARHD 13.x which is very close to stock Sense 5.
ROMs already include a kernel, so no need to flash separately.

Personal preference. Why don't you try both. 13.x is based on official 4.2.2 and 21.x is based on leaked 4.3 (but still very good)
Just note on 21.0 you have to enter APN settings manually to get mobile data & mms, and there's a bug which won't let you access SIM card contacts.

You can't use unsigned RUUs. If T-Mo releases a RUU with 1.54 or later hboot, then yes, you should be able to use it (unless you changed your MID or CID).

Yes it is, but you're stuck with the Google bootloader for now, until there is an s-off exploit for 1.54 or T-Mo releases that RUU.

It is compatible with 1.54, but I've never tried GPe, so I can't answer that. Don't know if it is firmware, ROM related, or if GPe hboot is different.

Well it's a good thing I changed my CID back to T-MOB010 before I put security back on then... I had SuperCID so not like it would've mattered... But thanks for the good news! And the GPE ARHD is compatible because it's Jelly Bean 4.3, but would flashing the ARHD 13.x ROM change the bootloader and start-up screen to HTC instead of Google?

No. No rom will change your bootloader or splash screen. You need s-off to do that.
Hey,
I'm finding it really difficult to get a definitive answer on the following question. So I'm just going to ask: if my HTC One has been updated to 4.2.2 by my carrier, does this mean I cannot use moonshine or revone to turn S-off? I've been trying all morning and I've read that this might be the case? Which is a damn shame as I wanted stock android with those lovely OTA updates.
Cheers, Jav

If you updated using OTA your bootloader would have been updated to 1.54 (you can check by going to bootloader. POWER + VOL DOWN)
and revone or moonshine will not work on 1.54.

Ah - that's what I was thinking. So there isn't a way to "convert" my own to a Google Play Edition until a new way to turn S-off is found?
Thanks for your help - it's good to have clarity! =)
You can flash a GE rom based.
But you can't receive the OTA from htc
You need the s-off for the full convert to GE edition

What do you mean by convert? If you mean flashing different ROMs, then you can use HTCdev to unlock your bootloader, and flash different ROMs, Radios, and kernels.
It will show your bootloader as TAMPERED and and UNLOCKED / RELOCKED (ie never again simply LOCKED). And you will loose OTA capability unless u go back to stock ROM and recovery and relock.
You will also not be able to flash unsigned firmware.
If you do decide to unlock, make a nandroid backup of your stock ROM before flashing anything new, so that you can always go back to stock ROM for OTAs.

He means this
The full convert to GE Phone.

So to make it all legit, I'd have to somehow revert my bootloader back to a version that supported turning S-off? I'm pretty sure that's beyond my feeble skills!
Never mind then - cheers all =)

But he could still use a GPe ROM, right? He wouldn't get the black bootloader or GOOGL001 CID, but the custom GPe ROMs out there would give him GPe experience.
Or am I missing something?

He can usa a GE based rom.

Oh I see! So the best I can do is install the RUU from this and manually keep my phone up to date thereafter?

Not an RUU, a custom ROM.
You would have to
1- unlock bootloader using HTCdev (will completely wipe your phone)
2- install custom recovery (CWM or TWRP)
3- make a nandroid backup of your stock ROM for the future
4- flash a GPe ROM from the development thread
That's it in a nutshell.
You will need your stock ROM and stock recovery later to get your official OTA, because that will be the only way to update your firmware. Everything else is pretty much covered in the custom ROMs out there.
I recommend reading the guides to familiarize yourself with the procedures.
I personally am on ARHD Sense 5 ROM, but there's also a GPe version, as well as others of course. Read a bit through these threads to get a "feeling" about them.

Good Evening:
I have a HTC One M7UL with Telus (Canada). I have been having problems with the phone charging while it's on and my last ditch effort is to go back to stock and hope something that's wrong will correct itself.
I have HBoot 1.44, S-Off, returned recovery to stock, relocked bootloader, 1.29.661.
I tried using the RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_TELUS_WWE_4.19.661.8_R_Radio_4T.24.3218.09_10.26.1718.01L_release_351500_signed_2.exe to update and return to stock.
Everything goes fine until the RUU asks me to upgrade from 1.29 to which I select "yes" and then I get an Error (158) and it tells me to find the correct RUU.
Anybody have an idea what I'm doing wrong or if they have a different RUU that I should be using?
Any assistance that gets this working might receive a "donation"
thanks in advance.

Looks promising, do I flash this from recovery, or do I do an ADB push or is there an exe in the zip I can run from the PC?

install from recovery, you'll have to unlock your bootloader again though :/ and re name it to rom and just use command adb push rom.zip /sdcard

Just want to make sure, I just go into recovery, wipe and then install the file via recovery? Seems to easy. I don't have to relock bootloader or flash the stock recovery first?
