Hello All,
Here's my dilemma. I successfully rooted my HTC One (AT&T), and was recently attempting to unroot it. I followed this one here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823. Since I have the AT&T version, I downloaded the first one the list found there, however it wouldn't verify. Next I downloaded the AT&T AIO here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2242635. I was able to use that to figure out according to the info it displayed that I actually needed the Google Edition one from the previous link. I thought that was weird since I dont have the google edition one. But when I fast booted that one, everything appeared to go through with a hitch.....Until it restarted.
After it restarted, I only have a black screen. No start up. I restarted the phone and went into the bootloader and to my surprise, the bootloader was black instead of the normal white.
I've tried several RUUs found here http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=M7
I've tried both the exe and flashing the zip.
I have no clue what to try next. Please XDA, your my only hope.
Are you s-off? I would assume so if you've been able to run multiple RUUs and are getting weird signature results. What mods/roms did you do to your phone before you started all this?
If you can get to bootloader, you're not bricked. You're on the 3.06 GE hboot, but it's not clear why you can't boot up.

Were you ever s-off? You should not have been able to run that GE RUU on an s-on AT&T phone.

You bought it new? Not used from someone else? If so, it was always s-on.
You're on GE firmware somehow. It's possible you have a conflict with your model or carrier ID. Can you run through the exact steps you took when you started trying to unroot? Exactly which files you used and how you ran them?

I received the phone directly from HTC through a sell to earn contest.
Not sure if it matters much but I unlocked the bootloader through HTC Dev.
To unroot,
1) Put phone in bootloader with fastboot
2) Relocked bootloader
3) fastboot oem rebootRUU
4) fastboot flash zip 2.24.401.1.zip (failed)
Used one of the AIOs that stated I had modelid: PN0712000 and cidnum: CWS__001. That when I grabbed the GE version.
5) fastboot flash zip 3.06.1700.10.zip
6) Phone finished, rebooted to a black screen
7) Rebooted into bootloader (Which is now black instead of white)
8) Sad ever since....
Where did you get that GE zip? I'm not sure why the AIO toolkit told you that you were GE but I'd like to check the file.
I suspect the problem is that you have 4.3 GE firmware but a 4.1 OS. Flashing a 4.2 or 4.3 rom might fix.

:facepalm: Just realized the issue.
Your bootloader is locked and you still have custom recovery installed, I'm guessing. Can you select Recovery in bootloader and see what happens? If you're still with TWRP or CWM, that's the issue; you can't boot locked on custom recovery.
You have to unlock again or flash the stock recovery in fastboot. Unlocking will wipe your phone, unfortunately.
Flashing recovery in fastboot is easy if you have the stock recovery file.

You are right about having the recovery option in the bootloader but when I try to select that option, Android shows up with the spinning blue thing in it's stomach, then it dies with a red triangle.
I'll try flashing the recovery again. After I find a stock recovery img. LOL
Thanks again!!!

Found the stock recovery. Attempted to flash it and got this:

Actually, I think that red triangle is stock recovery. I think to get to the recovery options you press power+vol up on that screen. But it doesn't matter because clearly you're not on custom recovery.
I don't see that 3.06 firmware package in the OP of that thread. Can you find the post you found it attached to?

If you click on the download link in that post for the GE it downloads as that 3.06 firmware..
Also, not sure if it was smart or not but I unlocked the bootloader again to see if it would fix the conflicts you mentioned before. Haven't tried flashing anything yet...
ADD: I just successfully flashed the stock recovery.... Too scared to muck something up so I'll waif for your superior guidance!

I forgot Mike updated that link.
Okay, I see what you did now. You've essentially upgraded your phone to a GE because the android-info.txt in this official firmware matched your MID and CID; that allowed it to run. The problem is that you can't go back now because you're s-on. Your phone won't boot because you have the GE kernel installed but I assume a Sense rom.
This should be easy to fix. You can flash custom recovery now that you've unlocked, then flash a custom rom. This will get your kernel and rom consistent again and you should be able to boot.
Unrooting is a different story. You can't go back to the stock configuration you had when you got the phone without s-off, which you can't get on 1.54 hboot. I'm afraid you're stuck until AT&T releases 4.3 and you can run a RUU.

So no getting my white bootloader back till next release? That's ok.
However, how do I flash the custom ROM. I got the customer recovery going but I don't know how to get the ROM on there.... Flashing isn't working, still getting signature failures.
Sorry

You can only run a later firmware. When the signed 4.3 Sense firmware is released (it may be there now), you should be able to run that and get back the stock HTC bootloader.
You need to adb push the rom file onto your phone. There is a tutorial for doing it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986

I upgraded my phone using the leaked ICS build that hit a little bit before the final one was released. I would like to get my phone updated to the official ICS build. I was looking through GSLEON's thread in the dev forum and he mentions:

Make sure that if you have a custom recovery that is is updated & double check that it is. Write the version numbers down to confirm, both before & after.
There was an early recovery that could not (CANNOT) be overwritten without flashing a modified PH39IMG file first, then flashing stock or new modified recovery.
If you update with your device with that original recovery, you may be very sorry.

Well firstly the RUU your referring to is for official gingerbread. You dont need to flash the modified file unless you have the old recovery so thats un needed. Use this official RUU link http://dl3.htc.com/application/htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_US.exe to flash your phone to the official ics build.
Thanks for the heads up, sorry for misinterpreting things. I'll give this a go when I get off work!
Looks like it worked! Thanks again
TWRP OK?
I have done some research on this and have found that I can get s-off by flashing a RUU rom. The thing is is that I have to have an updated recovery. Right NOw i have the TWRP 2.4.4.0 and wondering if Im good to flash the RUU or if i need to return to stock recovery.
I dont mind losing root as I can re root it.

Hi Guys,
I want to restore a TELUS Canada HTC One back to as stock as possible for warranty exchange purposes.
There is no RUU available for TELUS, but I do have a TWRP Nandroid backup. The device's HBOOT has been updated to 1.54, and the device is currently S-OFF / SuperCID via Revone and obviously unlocked bootloader with TWRP recovery. As well, the device is running the ARHD ROM.
What order / process do I need to follow to get this back to as stock-like as possible?

A few different ways. First, once you have a custom recovery installed, the 2 main recovery's used (TWRP & CWM) have an option to backup the recovery.
Second, when a new user unlocks their bootloader, they can then use fastboot commands to boot the custom recovery but keep the stock recovery installed and then it can take a backup of it. Example would be:
fastboot boot customrecovery.img
Also possible via a few different other more complicated methods.
If the nandroid you download doesn't have the stock recovery (the few that I downloaded for parts all had the recoveries, so I assumed it was a requirement before they would post a backup) then just give a shout around here and I can find a link for you.

Not sure why I'm having so much difficulty with this.
I've restored the 1.44 HBOOT referenced above.
I've restored the stock TELUS ROM via TWRP referenced above.
I can boot into the phone, but I have no touch-screen response now. Also, that TWRP backup did not include the stock recovery and I'm not sure which one I should push.
Tried flashing: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41953560&postcount=32 and now I have a red triangle recovery.....
OK, everything is normal. The red triangle means it is the stock recovery.
The touchscreen doesn't work because you must have updated your firmware. If you still have s-off then you can downgrade that back to stock before s-on and re-lock. Go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2316726
Download and install the package he has for " Base 1.29 Firmware, original unmodified"
After that you should be stock and just need to s-on and re-lock the bootloader.

I tried re-running REVONE and I am unable to go back to S-OFF.
What the heck happened?

Can you verify your hboot is back down to level 1.44?
If it is, we should be able to revone to s-off again, but we may need to try a few times.
Did you have tampered displayed before you went s-on?
It did display locked rather than relocked so that it good. However it must be picking something up as non original as that is what causes the tampered flag.

Yes, I am on HBOOT 1.44 from April 2013.
Tampered was not present before (I had hidden it with Revone). Tampered came back only after I re-locked the bootloader (with the stock recovery via firmware file you provided to me).
I tried to go S-OFF but I keep getting error 2 or 6 when doing ./revone -P
Meanwhile no issues doing 2 other phones with Revone (fresh out of box).

I had one phone that gave me trouble with revone. I tried it like 20 times and nothing was working. Then I ran all the commands in a terminal window on the phone rather than adb shell and it worked. Can you try that?
There are also some other good tips in the revone thread, but I forget them all and will have to read it again.
It wouldn't have been the recovery as that for sure was the stock recovery. Did you download the stock nandroid or did you make it yourself?
Hello everyone,
This is my fisrt time writing in this forum, hope you guys can share some knowledge with me. Here is my issue:
I bought a HTC One to a guy a few weeks ago with barely no use. The thing is that I didn´t know at that time that the device was rooted with the MaximusHD. When I realized about it I reset my phone to factory settings and the new 4.3 3.22.1540.1 got installed. Thought it was ok but it is still doing some weird things so I decided to unroot the device to stock, also for warranty porpuses.
The problem comes when I try to download the RUU for my device due to I cannot find it. Should I do it through other method? Do I have to S-off to downgrade and install the RUU 1.29?
My phone is the following:
M7_UL PVT Ship S-On RH
Baseband 4A.17.3250.14
Hboot 1.54.0000
OpenDSP v31.120.274.0617
It is the european unlocked/international version bought in Spain.
I would really appreciate if someone could give a hand on this and guide me in through this process. I was an iPhone guy and now I'm freaking lost.
Thanks so much!

Your bootloader should already be unlocked, so simply get S-OFF using Rumrunner, then follow this guide.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried to s-off my htc but it hasnt worked. So I downloaded the recovery stock version and after installing it, the device told me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i wanted to install supersu, i declined and then made a recovery. Phone looks like unrooted, although within the bootloader it still shows "tampered" and "Unlocked". The recovery mode that the phone had installed has disappeared so I dont know what to do now, should I continue to s-off the device and then put it down to hboot 1.44 and follow the unroot guide???
I would like to make sure my device is unrooted in order to gain warranty privilages just in case i need to send out my phone to htc...
Thanks!

You don't really have a choice, unless you have the RUU for your phone. Can you post the results of "fastboot getvar all" so we can try to figure out what to do.

Just a quick note here, "version-main: <blank>" I never like that.
BTW, when posting "fastboot getvar all" it's preferably to remove IMEI and s/n; we don't need to see that.
You should probably get s-off as @attanasi0 suggested and then run a "HTC__304" downgrade RUU. (You can only downgrade if you're S-Off)
Just my two cents

When you boot to bootloader does it also show nothing in OS (7th line down or so)? Can you remember the last OTA you took?

Right, it shows just OS- but nothing else...when i bought it the guy had installed the MaximusHD 13 and I updated through OTA to the MaximusHD 20 but wasnt going smooth so I reset it to factory settings and It installed the JB 4.3 (3.22.1540.1).
Today after trying to s-off without success, I downloaded the recovery stock version for the rom I had and flashed it and the recovery mode that I had before disappeared and the baseband upgraded to 4A.20...instead of the 4A.17 that I had before that. Did the guy who sold me the htc messed it up? is there anything I can do to set my device to factory settings?
Thanks for the help guys! I appreciate it!

Well from the information available, you have
- hboot 1.54
- m7_ul
- PN0710000
- CID HTC__304
this would lead me to assume you have a 2.24.401.x based phone.
I would try to get one of the following Guru Reset ROM:
2.24.401.8 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/
2.24.401.1 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
flash one of them in recovery, then follow the rumrunner steps to try to achieve S-Off.
If that is successful, then you can downgrade back to stock, using this RUU (exe): http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
check your "fastboot getvar all" after that.
Once you've done all that you can use revone (or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477792) to remove "TAMPERED"
and also revone (or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475914) to get you're phone "LOCKED" if you so wish

Thanks for the help. I have downloaded the Rom you gave me the link for but I dunno how to flash it due to I lost access to the teamwin recovery mode and when I click recovery onto the bootloader it goes to a black screen with a caution simbol in red and I have to reboot it.
I have tried with the goomanager to flash that rom but it doesnt let me. Any advice in this regard? I can tell goomanager to find an open recovery script (openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7.img), should i do this? Or Im gonna end up with a bricked phone?

"black screen with a caution simbol in red" that's stock recovery, you need to flash back a custom recovery. download (if you dont have one) from the xda threads, then enter bootloader (shut off phone, hold POWER + VOLDOWN) enter FASTBOOT, connect to PC and it should change to FASTBOOT USB
then
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter RECOVERY
then "install ZIP" in Aroma, deselect "stock recovery" so you don't need to flash it again.

No problem, TWRP you mentioned should work just fine. It's the same as installing a custom ROM. I havent used TWRP but it should say something like "install zip", then find the zip and flash away.
Hopefully, that will give you a chance to successfully run rumrunner; remember to read and follow the instructions to the letter!
Good luck and keep us posted (fingers crossed)

Well I installed the custom recovery, then flashed the stock rom 2.24.401.8 as you told me. Once I did that I ran rumrunner successfully gainning S-off.
Now I have to run the RUU but the one you suggested me is the "RUU M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 Radio 4A.13.3231.27 10.31.1131.05 Release 310878" but my radio is 4A.17.3250.14_10.39.1150.04L. Should I try to install it anyways? I've taken a look at the rest of RUUs and none fits my features...
btw every time I flash the stock version at the end it tells me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i want to install supersu, i always say no and after that my recovery always goes to stock, i guess it is normal, isnt it?

Go ahead and flash it, it will downgrade everything (now possible thanks to S-Off), and you will then receive the latest OTA package(s) to get to the most current version including radio.

Im asking in the lock/unlock threat but they just told me that its because im not rooted and that i have to install a recovery and install superuser in order to be able to introduce the code, dont really understand why I have to root it afer unrooted it :S

You should have LOCKED it before running the RUU, because that's what made you loose root.
So before proceeding, can you give me an update of your status:
bootloader: locked/relocked/unlocked?
tampered?
ROM?
"fastboot getvar all" (remove IMEI and s/n)
So I've run into a problem with my new Htc First phone, the wifi doesnt locate any access points.
Its unlocked,rooted and S-off-ed.
I can unroot and lock the bootloader but does anyone know how to S-on it?
Yea, you just have to ruu first and then follow this guide.

You usually have to run a factory reset, cache/dalvik cache wipe before you flash roms. I get that wifi problem sometimes when trying to flash a rom before wiping.

DUDE QUICK THING ! you can't flash any roms in till you RELOCK THE BOOTLOADER ! I know it sounds weird but trust me you will keep the S-off status (assuming you have s-off) and everything works fine, I couldn't flash any roms in till I relocked and I heard others have this problem too.
Now the WiFi problem, if factory resetting doesn't work, try flashing the stock rooted ROM around these threads, if that doesn't work try JMZ's kernel, and if that doesn't work then you have a hardware problem, good luck.

If he just RUU's it he won't have to worry about relocking his boot loader, he should just use titainium backup and ruu to save time.

I've tried it many times already it works, after you ruu it you just have to turn s-on before you try to unlock the boot loader again otherwise you'll get bootloop.

All I need to do is wipe away all traces of my rooting and bootloader unlocking etc as I'm returning it for warranty.
Now my First is rooted, custom recovery and s-off and unlocked .
I want it unrooted, s-on and boot loader locked.
Someone please guide me through the steps :/
btw im not a n00b, but this is my first HTC phone so I'm not too familiar with these ruu's and s-offs

Step 1. RUU your device
Step 2. After it reboots when it's done ruu'ing just start it and go through the set up.
Step 3. Turn on USB debugging mode.
Step 4. Turn on CMD on your PC then just follow the commands below
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem writecid xxxxxxxx (where xxxxxxxx is your stock CID.) Mines is CWS__001 on the HTC first I'm not sure if it's the same on all devices just check to see if yours it the same, if it is just use fastboot oem writecid CWS__001
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot getvar cid (It should say CWS__001 if that is your cid.)
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
fastboot reboot-bootloader
*verify you are locked s-on
fastboot reboot
And that's it, it is a extremely simple process lol, I've done it at least 20 times since I tend to ruu my device a lot off of S-OFF, when messing around with different roms.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841890
So its okay if I flash the ruu by the second method as in this thread?
And will custom recovery be overwritten with stock recovery?
OK Update!
I was well on my way to relock,s-on my phone etc and here's what happened
@Kendosis
@SneakyGuyDavid
1) Sucessfully RUU'd
As it happened I didnt have my sim inserted and when I rebooted, the wifi was working! When I inserted the sim the wifi stopped working. I did some bit of research and it turns out it has something to do with wifi country codes. Apparently it can be fixed by this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fardjad.android.wifixmanager
2) Since the app required root, I was going to get root again.
(Flashing RUU gave me bootloader locked)
I unlocked and then flashed CWM
3) Since I had no roms on my phone storage and the CWM doesnt mount storage, I had to sideload the ROMS.
4) No matter which roms I flashed, I was stuck in a bootloop. I relocked and tried flashing again but I was again stuck in a bootloop. CWM works fine though.
Current status: Bootloader Locked, S-off.
What do I do to fix this bootloop :/
@dramon
I told you to s-on after you ruu first otherwise you get boot loop lol.
Now RUU again and right after don't install nothing just start up the phone and turn usb debugging on and follow the steps to S-ON.

also sideload sucks ass, if you flash TWRP then you can run adb from it and use adb push, so in cmd you would run " adb push
ROMZIPNAME.ZIP /sdcard "
Thanks guys, I now have an idea of how the rooting and unlocking works for HTC (Y)
Hello,
I received from phone info that 4.4.2 update is ready for download, I let it download and when it asked me to update I said yes. After update, phone rebooted and I got picture with red triangle and exclamation mark.
What to do? I cannot wait for this to be fixed, nor I have time to wait for my operator to fix my phone, since this will last at least 2 weeks.
It can go to stock bootloader without problem!
How to flash original img to my phone, and let it on 4.1.x until they fix this?
Please guys help me with this...
If it is of any help, I had EU version of phone on Serbian Telenor network.
Cheers...

Are you rooted, or have you done any modification?

It was rooted, but I did returned it to stock, and it did get like 2-3 big updates till now without problem (one was 4.3.x as far I remember). It has S-On.
Any hope for me?
Cheers...
Hum, probably a bad flash and the solution it to flash it again, but i guess you can't since it was an OTA.
If you have a backup, you can try to hard reset it from the Bootloader and see if it works.
You could also unlock the bootloader, and flash a stock rom.
You have to google it, i'm sure some other had the same problem.
...so I can unlock my phone even with not entering the OS alone? Will try it tomorrow, cannot do it tonight too tired.
Cheers...
...I just noticed that I cannot install Stock RUU on my phone until I get hboot @ 1.44.
My phone CID is HTC_032, OS is 3.62.401.1, Model PN0710000 and has PVT SHIP S-ON
So how to do this, can anyone help me?
Cheers...

When it happened to me, I just held down the power button for a half a minute and rebooted to Android again and downloaded the OTA again(first time it asks you to install an update, you cancel it, because it's the data that's still downloaded from before and it's corrupted, then you download it again). No unlocking, no RUU flashing.
You just probably downloaded a corrupted OTA data, that's why you got the red triangle.

Unlock the bootloader. Then flash a custom recovery, and then a custom ROM

Problem is that I cannot enter OS at all... only Bootloader (Fastboot etc.), but when phone tries to boot it passes first screen and then stops at loading OS, that's where red triangle is.
Didn't find way to redownload it from bootloader, or am I missing something?

No,if you can't access Android OS, then you can either try to factory reset trough recovery. Maybe that helps.
If not,and if a service center is not an option,then you have to unlock your bootloader,flash the latest TWRP recovery(recommended,you can flash CWM instead) and then flash custom ROM.
How to unlock bootloader,check out this link,it's just above your topic...

...it seems that I cannot mount any of the thingies on my phone, I did unlock bootloader with htcdev, did install custom recovery the CWM, and I did sideload rom to my device, but now I have problem that it doesn't want to go pass the rom screen! ...and when I try to mount something in CWM I get errors, like "E:Can't mount /sdcard"! What shall I do now?

Good tutorial,I'm glad you found it and managed everything yourself:good:.
It's been a while since I S-offed,but I think Rumrunner will be the best if not the only choice for doing it. But check which firmware numbers are supported and which not,don't upgrade your phone too much:laugh:.

Well, now I am even in bigger trouble, seems after flashing some sense rom I got stuck in infinite boot loop, and I don't have recovery anymore, did try to erase cache from fastboot, even did try to flash fresh recovery, nothing helped...
What to do now? lol

You are doing too much at a time:laugh:. Go slowly:laugh:.
What's your firmware number? Install a ROM that goes with your firmware number. For instance don't install Sense ROM if you have GE firmware installed.
When you get this right, S-off your phone and everything will be easier from there. And like I said, don't upgrade your phone to a too high version because not all versions of firmware are supported(I think so, I'm not sure).

*** UNLOCKED ***
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.55.0000

So what is it now? I know I had WWE version...
Cheers, and thanks for helping me out
Edit: ...I'd like to have it back to factory settings without TAMPERED on it... is it possible at all, since now I cannot enter recovery at all?

Hehehe, moramo pričati tako, da nas svi razume:good:.
In English:laugh:. You have a 4.3 Sense firmware. You have to find a stock ROM of 4.3 Android that matches this firmware number.
Than go to Rumrunner theme and read instructions about how to S-off you phone. When you're done with S-off, you remove the tampered flag and lock you bootloader.
But first, install stock ROM and S-off with Rumrunner. Then we'll continue:good:.

I'll help you find it when I get back to my computer. In the meantime read a tutorial for Rumrunner.
