[Q] looking to go back to stock htc one - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi im looking to go back to stock with my htc one virgin mobile but i have no clue what im doing sorry can Someone help me please if you need info please PM me many thanks

Hi GearshiftJB,
If you have S-OFF you can use the following guide to help you return to stock - [GUIDE] How to Return to 100% Stock.
If, however, you're S-ON then the method I'd use it to download and flash a stock ROM. If you use this method, you should still have root access but if you want to remove root access aswell then you can un-root your phone through the SuperSU app.
I hope this helps and if you need any more help/information, just let me know

Just post here.

hey guys, at this part
Phone should boot to the bootloader. Now run:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid CWS__001
Now verify that the stock CID shows on the bootloader screen by running:
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Should I use CWS_001 or is there a different code for the bellévirgin mobile people like me thanks for the help so far

okay so now I keep getting invalid CID whenever I try to change it to anything

okay I've been trying for hours I can't seem to find the proper RUU or Stock Virgin Recovery image
my CID is currently 11111111 where for bell/virgin it should be BM___001 right?
my HBOOT is at 1.55.0000
radio is 4A.20.3263.16
OS - 3.23.666.1
currently unlocked + S-off

I have been but haven't been getting any response

bump - Still need help please.
My bootloader is unlocked, cid still supercid, hboot 1.55.0000, OS 3.23.666.1 but I'm still running Android Revolution??

Not being mean but if you have no idea why did you go the custom route? Why did't you check out how to restore to stock for this very situation?
You should be able to find a nandroid backup from someone and use this to restore the phone

I'm trying to restore via CWM using.. http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-bm___001-1-29-666-5-zip/ that for Bell.
I can't seem to find where to put the backup once it's downloaded though..
Why did I go the custom route? I was curious. I originally had thought that it would be easy to restore if I just backed up what I originally had.. but that backup got lost and I'm just not up to date with how to do any of this. Thanks for the reply!

Therein lies the problem - assumption. You should always read up on everything you can so you know what you can/can't do with your particular handset.
You have to put the backup in the relevant folder on your phone so that the recovery can see the backup, e.g. /data/media/clockworkmod/backups/

okay.
anyways I just finished the download, put it in the clockwork mod folder/backup and will try to restore/back up from it now.
in order to have stock OTA updates will I have to go back to S-on, lock bootloader and normal cid? also my Hboot is 1.55.0000 does this require a downgrade? thanks! I'm making progress!

When I use CWM to try and restore I cant locate the file. It says cant mount /external_sd or cant mount /sdcard
I'll thoroughly search for where the back up I'm creating now is stored

Probably cause CWM looks for them in /data/media/clockworkmod/backups
and your PC looks at /data/media/0/... (ie /sdcard/ as of Android 4.2.2)

Use an OTG to connect a mouse, and download the OTA, that will fix the touchscreen.

[Q]Reverting to stock firmware (three) and stock ROM (s-off)

Hey guys,
Right, I have a hardware issue with my phone so need to return it to Three UK.
Currently I have Android Revolution HD 11 on my phone and have updated to 2.17 firmware, s-off.
So I need stock, firmware to be reverted to 1.28.771 and to change my CID to H3G__001 (currently HTC__001). There doesn't appear to be an RUU for three.
First off I'm assuming the H3G nandroid backup in the "[COLLECTION] HTC M7 RUU, OTA, and Stock Nandroid Downloads" thread doesn't actually touch the firmware so it would remain at 2.17?
So my thinking is this:
Flash the generic europe RUU (do I need to lock my bootloader before doing this)? (RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13. 3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe)
Change CID to H3G__001
Nandroid restore of H3G ROM. (M7 CWM Nandroid Backup / CID H3G__001 / 1.28.771.x )
s-off to lock and remove tamper.
s-on.
OTA update?
Will this work?
Or does anyone have a link to the 1.28.771 firmware?
Thanks for the help.

You don't have to lock the bootloader and you need s-off to downgrade.

Rest of the steps...well sounds good but unfortunatelly i'm not expert so dunno
I'm really interested if it works this way for you as i have a VF-uk one, and once i have to go back to stock this info would be really helpful.
Please let we know your progress
Good luck

Hey,
Yup this worked perfectly (almost). Reset your CID to your originally carriers before running the nandroid backup or it will be missing your carriers boot screen.
The only thing is the recovery seems to be missing. I'd expect the HTC recovery to load when selecting it from the bootloader but all I get is a red triangle. I obviously need to sort this before sending it back (Monday).
Any ideas?
I haven't s-on'd yet because I want to sort out recovery first. That should be pretty simple though.
I guess I just need a link to stock recovery.img.
Just tried and mine does same. I have stock recovery so thats fine.
Hope you get a nice new one:laugh:
Cheers
Stock recovery will display a red triangle..your all set

Yup. I just realised. Completely 100% back to stock now with s-on.
It's been quite a journey. Hopefully they can repair it quickly so I can get ARHD 11 back on.

Would you make the step by step?
It would really helpful
If I ain't wrong,
1. Get the RUU's
2. Change CID to HTC_001 before flashing RUU
3. Flash RUU
4. Write original CID
5. Nandroid Restore
6. Re S-ON with Revone
Is that right?

Yup, those are the exact steps that I took.
Note* make sure you just boot into custom recovery and don't actually flash it when restoring your nandroid backup. Having custom recovery on your device is a dead give away.

Normally you would use the following command to install custom recovery:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Use this command instead:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
That allows you to boot into custom recovery without actually installing it onto your phone.

[Q] Stock recovery img

I have had a look around and cannot seem to find a stock recovery to flash on my device that works. I have a UK device on T-Mobile/Orange. If anyone can provide a link it would be greatly appreciated.
Posting your CID would help. Have you looked in the RUU/OTA/Nandroid thread? Sorry can't work out how to link to it in tapatalk but it's in the General forum and starts with [COLLECTION].
There's a couple UK nandroid backups in there. You can unzip and get the recovery.img from one of them

Thanks for the responses guys I will check all the suggestions and provide full details of my set up once I am home tonight.
More information
Right guys back home from work. What I was trying to do was return to stock to check out the latest update (as everyone else seems to be doing)
Here are the details of my phone
cid: ORANG001
Radio: 4A.13.3231.27
S-ON
RELOCKED (atm)
I thought I could just flash the stock htc recovery and then grab the OTA update as I have reverted to a back up of the original OS. I get as far as the initial reboot then the update fails due to CWM recovery.
I then tried to use the standard EU RUU for my baseband and that generates an error 133 incorrect device ID.
What I am looking for is either a way or getting the Stock Recovery or an RUU that will work on my phone.
Thanks again.

Q: O2 UK Stock Bootloader/Rom/RUU -

Hello all...
I recently got an HTC One and decided to root it but now I am unable to get the 4.2.2 update.
Ive tried to find a way to revert back to stock but so far no luck.
I've only been able to get it back via a factory reset but the Team Win Recovery Project
and bootloader is still present and halts the 4.2.2 update.
phone details are...
Android version : 4.1.2
HTC Sense Version : 5.0
Software Version : 1.29.206.16 CL175272
HTC SDK API Level : 5.12
baseband 4a.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01L
CID is o2__001
Is there an RUU I can use to revert it back to stock?
Ive looked around but couldn't find an appropriate RUU
Only thing I have found is the OTA_M7_UL_JB_50_O2_UK_1.29.206.11-1.27.206.1_P_release_315484
Would using this in TWRP get me back to stock so I can get the 4.2.2 update?
ANY help would be hugely appreciated!!!

I don't know if this would work but...
I have a nandroid backup of my O2 UK One.
This was taken prior to upgrading via OTA to 4.2.2.
Upgrading to 4.2.2 meant my hboot became 1.54.
I now find that if I restore my backup that the touchscreen is completely unresponsive - as far as I can tell because of the hboot upgrade - as any 4.2.2 roms work fine - and a nandroid for O2_002 (Germany) which was prior to 4.2.2 exhibited the same behaviour.
What I'm suggesting is, if you haven't yet upgraded to 4.2.2 yet - then you may be able to use my backup to restore your phone to a state ready to receive the OTA and upgrade to 4.2.2.
Yup - I'm not too sure it would work either! WE could both do with someone with a little more experience to advise us here!
However - I'm willing to provide the backup - but I would ask one favour.
If it works - please, please, make a nandroid backup of the completed update (i.e. O2_001 4.2.2) and let me (and probably quite a few people here) get their hands on it!
As you've probably noticed - O2 variants are not well catered for either here - or indeed anywhere on the net.
If you want to give it a try PM me - and I'll provide a link so you download it and try it out.
hmmm

Well I'm back on O2 (thanks for that Gandalf) instead of the Euro ROM+SuperSID I was using before but still can't get it to update to 4.2.2
Just can't seem to get back the stock bootloader..
even when unrooted, locked(relocked)
played about with various recovery.img like has been suggested, no joy
Is there a way to manually update?
I'm absolute newbie at all this hehehe

You need to be unlocked to flash recovery.
The image supplied contains the original stock recovery.
ADB fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Also - probably flash the boot image
ADB fastboot flash boot boot.img
Relock - OTAs require that.
Also - have you reverted to your original CID?
Keep trying!
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Now I've woken up!
1) Make sure you're unlocked and S-Off
2) Change your CID to O2___001 ( that's 3x "_") - fastboot oem writecid xxxxxxxx
3) Extract boot.img and recovery.img from backup provided.
4) Place these files in the folder on your PC containing your fastboot file.
5) Connect the phone in fastboot usb mode
6) fastboot flash boot boot.img
7) Restart in recovery mode
7a) Personally I'd wipe everything here - data cache etc.
8) Restore backup
9) Restart to bootloader usb mode
10) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
11) fastboot flash oem lock
12) Reboot
You should now hopefully have an HTC One running 4.2.1 with a locked bootloader and the correct CID - OTA should work now.
If anyone reading this knows different or can point out any mistakes or best practises please do so!
well no joy so far
Given up on going back to stock at the moment, having too much fun with modded roms etc.
Tried multiple ways to get back to stock recovery and the strange thing is I can flash between various recover.img/boot.img and swap between the clockworkmod and TWRP but the stock recovery.img seems to not over write during the flash.
Each time it reverts back to the custom recovery with the
"entering recovery... this build is for development...
(I put the superCID back to default but would it be because it detects the S-off ?
from what I've read I didn't think that would matter tbh)
BUT..
I can now swap between the various custom ROMS/Nandroid backups with ease using clockworkmod, Rom manager and CWM Backup manager.
fun times!!!
From what ive learnt, 4.2.2 has a different method of saving backups to a hidden file that hasn't been showing up when ive tried to transfer the back-up to my computer. Even CWM backup manager has failed to pull the hidden backup across and show it as a visual file in pc that I can transfer across..
Maybe this is because of the lack of dev options in the Android Revolution HD-One 2.0 GE ??
and having to just use the HTC One as a "Media device MTP" rather than the usb with debugging ??
(or am i just missing something here?)
But.. have found Android Commander for the pc which has helped a lot with this
and now I'm learning a bit more about the file structuring in Android..
Anyway onwards, upwards and outwards ..
just scraping the surface of the Android os so far...

As I understand it the "dev purposes only" is because you don't have a signed boot.img.
The boot.img I supplied with the backup should be signed - did you copy it from the backup and place in your adb folder to flash prior to restoring the backup? Though, saying that, I thought if you were s-off that the boot.img would be restored as part of the backup. I'm at a loss as to why it doesn't work.
Likewise with the recovery.img.
As regards backup - try reading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34116836 or alternatively use 6.0.3.1 as that older version allows for transfer/restore to/from external sd card via OTG cable - slowly tedious but it works.
Ah well - have fun - I'll have to wait until the devs fix revone to allow s-off with 1.54 so I can revert my hboot and restore my backup in order to achieve stock O2 rom and OTA .

You're welcome.
The reason I want to be able to restore to pure stock is to cover my ass if the phone ever needs to be returned under warranty.
Because of the 1.54 hboot update a lot of people are frustrated because they can't s-off and choose what they wish to do with their phone.
Fortunately - as I still have that nandroid I'll be able to downgrade my hboot, s-off and restore back to prior OTA - as soon as revone is updated.
Guys a little help here as well

if u used CWM, then what type? i mean did you downloaded CWM for htc one ( International)?
Gandalf, do you have the back up file still? I would be very grateful if I could have a copy.

Hi,
I have an O2 HTC One. CID is 002 I think. I have S-On at the moment, but I am in the process of trying to get S-Off so that I can remove the ***Tampered*** and relocked signs.
I dropped the damn thing down the toilet and need to send it in for repair so I just wanted to make sure they dont get funny about repairing it when I have installed custom rom, because the reason for me sending it back is not due to that!
I have been searching the forums a bit and have found a nandroid backup of O2 rom, so will try that. The Android Rev 51 rom I have at the moment will not let me gain S-Off with rumrunner - always gives me an error. Going to try stock and see what happens.

Follow my guide to return to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082
you can use:
Code:
nandroid [B]O2___102 1.27.206.1[/B]: ro.aa.modelid=PN0710000
ro.aa.cidlist=O2___001,O2___102
if it matches your "fastboot getvar all" (MID & CID)
but first you need to S-Off.

sure no problem, so first s-off, then follow the guide, you'll be 100% stock.
Let me know if you have any questions.

I checked your guide and gained S-OFF with firewater, much quicker and smoother and more importantly, actually successful as opposed to rumrunner!
One more question, the downloads for the backups are fairly slow and Im halfway done downloading M7 CWM Nandroid Backup CID O2 102 3.62.206.1.
Is this version just an updated one vs the 1.27.206.1 2013-03-30 ?
Which should I use?
Thanks

Need help, Not sure what to do!

Hey guys so another newb fail here, essentially I rooted my phone and installed a cmd rom and messed my phone up. Went through all the steps in trying to fix it, ruu etc but the ruu was out of date? Or my phone needed a different version. Anyway now my internal storage isn't mountable and I can't do anything. Very worried I ruined my phone! Does anyone have any advice?
A little more info would be helpful. Like what ROM exactly did you flash? Were you on the latest 1.31 RUU? Did you try flashing a 1.29 RUU?

It was this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356654
once I installed that everything went wrong, but I found a way to reboot because I made a backup and it saved to my phone and then i installed them7spr-RootBox-JB-houstonn rom, that worked for a bit but I had no service at all. So I tried to do the RUU trick but didn't realize the numbers didn't match the 1.31 as it prompted (it was 4 in the morning and I was really worried so I tried everything) so that crashed and my bootlock was locked, I then unlocked it again and when I tried to turn it on it would just load the rootbox rom's loading screen then power off. But in short yes, I was on 1,31 and tried flashing to 1.29
Got a little update, so I downloaded http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368907 and went into cmd and typed in fastboot flash recovery boot.img and got it to start loading the rom but it crashes after about 2 minutes. I can't go into recovery mode anymore, I'm assuming the flash wiped it clean? No idea what to do next. Any insight would be amazing!
1. Never flash ROMS that aren't made for your phone. ARHD is made for GSM variants of the HTC One only. I believe ARHD was also available for CDMA in point in time, but not anymore
2. You can't go back to previous RUU's unless you have S-off
Have you tried to RUU to 1.31? Did you re-lock your bootloader first? If not, do that first and you should be fine.

I can't seem to find the Sprint HTC ONE 1.31 RUU anywhere so I can use the program to fix my phone since I wiped the internal storage before pushing a rom to the device. OTG doesn't work. I have TWRP installed and I can get into fastboot, but adb isn't working at all. Any help??

I downloaded, extracted, and ran the correct soju but I get an error. It says to run rumrunner again and READ... I don't know what I did wrong. I did this with my phone in fastboot usb mode, is that right?

When I run the rumrunner program, I type 'Yes' twice then I get an error telling me to run rumrunner again and READ. What did I do wrong?
Recently I was working on returning my phone back to stock and I ended up using OMJ's encrypted 1.29.651.7 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250904). However, in order to flash an older ruu successfully I also had to trick the phone into believing that an older version was installed. I did it using dd through adb, but I can't find the thread with the info so I'll try to find that.
ok, so here's what I did:
first, I downloaded the encrypted 1.29.651.7 ruu
then, I used this trick to change the version recorded in the phone (I think I had to be root, but I don't remember) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2390821
I substituted 1.29.651.7 for the 1.29.651.10 shown in the link
then I relocked the bootloader and flashed the ruu according to the return to stock instructions.
Hopefully this helps you work it out, I'm not sure how much this will help you but it worked for me.

This didn't do it either. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME
I don't know if you can flash OMJ's firmware if your bootloader is set to "Relocked". I could be wrong but I think what you need to do is unlock it again first and install a recovery. Then flash OMJ's stock firmware from recovery. From there you can probably do the S-OFF process and RUU back to stock.
You do need to be able to boot into your ROM for S-OFF to work, as you start the S-OFF process while the phone is booted up and running.
