Hi guys, I have T-Mobile version. So, I have unlocked, S-OFF, changed to CID to 111111 and installed custom recovery. So now, am I able to have official firmware and software updates from T-Mobile or should I install Developer RUU from HTC. If I want to install Developer Edition RUU, which one should I choose? I have checked HTC website and I am lost .
Thank you!
I'm in the UK & have a sim free HTC One.
So I changed my CID to HTC__Y13 to enable me to get the 4.2.2 OTA early then changed it back to HTC__001 & sadly used Revone to S-ON again. I have no English (United Kingdom) setting in the system language, probably because the update wasn't meant for a uk phone, so my thought was to go back to the 1.28.401.7 RUU then update properly now the UK OTA is out. Obviously I can't do this because I have a 1.54 hboot & can't S-OFF again to flash the RUU.
What method can I use to be able to downgrade the hboot to 1.44, S-OFF & flash the 1.28 RUU? Can I unlock bootloader via HTCDev, flash a custom rom with a 1.44 hboot then go back to stock, lock bootloader, S-OFF then flash to RUU? I don't want to try this & wipe my phone if it won't work.
Anyone else figured a way to do it?
Cheers
Tim
From my understanding, there is no way of altering H-boot without S-off. I'm sure someone will cracking 1.55 in the future.

This is correct.
The update WAS for your phone, if a phone is x.xx.401.x in the UK and x.xx.401.x in the Netherlands they get the same OTA
Can you still change your CID? I read someone who lost S-Off but was still able to change to superCID (11111111)

If you aren't afraid to experiment.
That is simple for information, when my phone had leaked 2.17.401.1 ROM from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752
and
firmware from 2.17.401.1 RUU
from here (second post)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823
My phone had HBOOT 1.54 and I without problems received S-OFF using alternate revone binary v0.2.1-wlj.
So , you can try this way
1) Unlock booloader
2) Flash latest custom recovery (I had TWRP)
3) Make nandroid backup your system
4) Flash 2.17.401.1 ROM
5) Try to get S-OFF using revone v0.2.1-wlj
I DO NOT guarantee success! If you do it, it is your risk!
I don't have much of an idea of what I'm doing but I want to reset my rooted HTC one back to stock so I can install an OTA update and according to the tut I'm following I need the relevant RUU but I can't find it.
Can I use the Optus or another RUU for my Virgin Mobile HTC One? (1.29.980.2)
If you are in s-off you can use all the ruu you want.
And after you can be able to do all the OTA to 4.2.2 you want
My Htc One is S-OFF with super cid "11111111" hboot 1.44 and latest radio.
the original cid was TIM_401 something from Italy which I didn't found the RUU over the internet for it, so from day 1 using custom roms (viper one)
Actually I was a iPhoner for many years just few months ago upgraded to "android" so I am pretty new in all this.
I wonder if it possible for example to flash the us developer edition RUU which receive very quickly OTA updates from HTC on my HTC one? and covert my phone to full developer edition?
and another question if I flash the stock rom using fastboot this will upgrade my HBOOT/Radio too?
Sorry for my newb question

s-off you can flash any decrypted RUU.zip by simple edit of the android-info.txt to match your phone (use fastboot getvar all)
Rom will not update firmware (hboot/radio) - RUU will

change your CID to: BS_US001
Then you can use this guru reset to change to a developer edition ->> http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-22-1540-1-zip/
Choose to flash stock recovery and no root and you'll have a stock developer edition One.

Hi, I am new to this website and have never adapted my phone before. I have searched through a number of threads on this forum but I am still unsure about how to modify my device, so I would like to ask for your help and a step-by-step list on how to do the following:
I have a HTC One (M7) on the EE (UK) network and I am currently on android 4.3 because EE haven't bothered to release 4.4 + Sense 5.5 yet and haven't informed anyone about when the update will be released, so I have no hope of sense 6 being released any-time soon and I am fed up waiting.
So, I would like to change my HTC One to an unlocked international version which can receive OTA updates direct from HTC instead of waiting for EE and I would like to also flash the STOCK International Sense 6 ROM onto my phone at the same time.
Current CID: ORANG001
Current Hboot: 1.55
Current Software Number: 3.63.61.1
Radio: 4A.21.3263.04
Locked Bootloader with S-On
I would very much appreciate any help you can give.
Thank-You

Thanks for your reply, just wondering do I have to flash a custom rom or can it be a stock rom. If it has to be a custom rom which would you recommend. Also, what would I use to get s-off. Thank-You

It's best to be on the stock rom if you are already on one. Use firewater to s-off your phone and then convert to the developer edition.
Edit: a rom with an insecure kernel is best for s-off as clsa has mentioned below.
I have a YouTube tutorial for the conversion part if you'd like to see.

I normally recommend ARHD 31.6 because of the insecure kernel
The Stock kernel doesn't play nice getting s-off

Ah ok. I read about that somewhere. Sorry I'll correct that!
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
So, after I flash ARHD 31.6 and then I s-off with firewater, how would I go about getting the phone ready to receive OTA updates direct from HTC for the UK unlocked version. (I would prefer changing to UK unlocked rather than the Developer version mentioned above)
Also, have you got a link to the version of firewater relevant for me. Thanks

Did you watch the video above ?
the important thing is changing the CID and MID to match what ever version you choose. Then flash that RUU

I did watch that video but i wasn't sure if that was the final step in order to receive OTA updates direct from HTC because I remember reading somewhere that you need stock recovery.

So, the Guru reset is included in the RUU file, or is it a separate download? Also, do you know of any good links which have all the details I need to enter in the Command Prompt to do the following:
Flash custom Recovery TWRP 2.6.3.3
Flash ARHD 31.6
Get S-Off with Firewater
Change CID
Also, should I backup my current rom before I do anything and would I use the TWRP recovery to do that, if so how?
Also, on some things I have read it has mentioned something about Aroma, what is this and do I need it?
I know there is a lot of things here, Thank-You very much if you can help me with all of it.
