Get One back to stock/unrooted - Sprint HTC One (M7)

To anyone who can help me. I've been rooted but running stock on my Sprint HTC One for about six months now and I wanted to drop back down to being unrooted and completely on stock so I can update to 4.3. I've unrooted my phone before but now it isnt working. Somehow I've managed to delete TWRP recovery from it and I'm on 1.31.651.2 which I'm pretty sure I updated to over top of root. I may be mistaken about that. Anyways, I tried using the RUU and that's when I realized that the 1.31.651.2 RUU hasn't been released yet so I went a different route.
Tried using the All-In-One Toolkit but my computer doesnt seem to be recognizing my phone.
As of right now the phone is powered on and able to view the homesceen and blinkfeed. Tried checking for update and now it is saying that my phone is up to date but is still on 4.1.2. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have been sitting in front of my computer trying to fix this for more than 3 hours.

Can I still root my phone?

I had my phone rooted and it worked great then my phone was stolen. When the replacement came in I rooted it first thing with fresh 2.1.2 but my phone would not receive or make calls.
So then I had to run the 1.5 RUU to get back to stock thinking I was going to have to get some warrant work. Well that bricked my phone getting the 110 error that many other seem to get too.
I found the fix, and opened command prompt and ran fastboot oem boot. This fixed my phone and I was back running 1.5
After testing my phone, I seen that it made calls with not problem and it was the fresh rom that was messing my phone up. I decided I would not root my phone again, instead just install the 2.1 update. I tried to update through the phone but it did not work so I downloaded the 2.1 RUU and ran it.
I've been using the 2.1 update now for a week and I am unsatisfied. It is incredibly slow compared to my rooted phone. I tried using fresh kitchen to root my phone but it says I have a custom room and fails. (I thought running the 2.1 RUU was like a factory update?)
Anyways, is there a way for my to root my phone again? I am stuck and not sure what to do.
Sorry for the wall of text.
so u found the fix for the 110 error but u cant see like the third topic here on how to root 2.1?
Damn, haha, Thanks for pointing that out.
I'm hungover at work, you got to cut me a little slack. My head is else where today.

[Q] How to Unroot Sprint Hero?

Ive searched through a few forums and read a many posts. Its seems that many people have problems unrooting their phone, whether its using the wrong ruu or something else. & honestly the unrooting process confuses me a little. I would be happy if anyone could tell me the best/right way to unroot a sprint hero. I really want to do this is 1 try. All answers are appreciated...
Run the official Sprint RUU, takes one step to do.
Error 171
While running the ruu i got an error 171 message. It said it couldnt connect to my phone. I used the ruu from the post here because apparently i wont be able to reroot if I use the latest ruu. Can anyone help?
Nvm. I think it happened because i had my brower & word open. I closed them then restarted the process. My phone seems to be working just fine now.
I am about to sell my Hero (anybody interested?) and I want to completely unroot my Hero so that it is exactly how it would be if I never rooted it:
* OTA updates installed and enabled
* No way to boot into recovery
* Completely stock and updated
...like if I was to go buy one at the Sprint store right now. I will just use it completely stock until it is sold.
How would I go about this? Just install the official RUU? Which one should I install and where can I get it?

Just run the latest RUU and it will be back to stock, with no root and recovery.

Rooted and can't update..

Hello,
I rooted and unlocked my HTC Desire 510 (Cricket) ages ago and I have an update for security patches which I cannot run because my phone just keeps rebooting into TWRP recovery and therefore does not install the latest update. I heard you have to flash the phone back to stock ROM but I'm not sure how to go about doing that. I am willing to restore my phone back to 100% stock if anyone knows how I can do that.
Thank you.
You have to relook the bootloader
Flash stock rom
Apply your ota updat
And after you can unlook again and flash recovery

IMO.... Update isn't worth the time involved needed to install it. Installed on my wife's totally out of the box stock 510....esy,but couldn't really see a difference. Left my rooted nonsense ROM alone. It's been quite a while now and haven't noticed a difference. Your call, that's just my two cents worth

I ended up finding someones stock recovery image dump around here after doing some searching and it worked out fine. The only reason I ever actually rooted my device was to use Helium to do full backups of my phone such as Apps and App Data.
