All my friends got new 4.2 or 4.3. Version. But I am still running the same old 4.0... I didnt do any cracks or customization to my phone just using as it is since unboxing.. please help me how it could be normal and how can I get regular updates .

Hello Meraj,
That message means that your phone has been modified from stock. That's why you won't get updates.
Boot the phone into the bootloader, and post the information it displays, here
It will tell you what Carrier ID and firmware it's using, among other things.
Maybe the phone can be reverted back to stock software.
Thanks for your reply..
Here is the picture of bootloader.
Can it be revert back . While in bootloader I saw couple of options of rebooting or to factory setting , wipe out n all.. will it be helpful .
Thank you

That confirms it.
That boot loader screen shows:
1) the phone is unlocked.
2 ) the "tampered" flag is set, which is probably because a custom recovery (TWRP aka Win Recovery) has been flashed on the phone.
3) the Hboot is version 1.44. That's a good thing.
Now you need to determine what the CID and MID are.
Do you have "ADB" installed on a computer that you can use ?
And if you wish to continue it with better rom... Try flashing ViperOne.... I bought from Dubai, used, unlocked & tempered too

To have ota update, you need both CID and MID that matches regions that received and update. You also need stock recovery and locked bootloader (yours is unlocked and I guess you have a custom recovery installed)
we need the info from fastboot getvar all command to help you
but do not post info related to your s/n and imei
if you don't know how, go read about adb and fastboot first
update help
hello guys.. thank you all for your help//
somehow manage to get these details about fastboot. . i am adding the picture.. i dont understand much but i have intuition that it might be asia ruu. please help me find one.. but one thing please if i go back to original stock then will i face the sim lock problem ( as i bought it in dubai and if the phone is from another country and by some other carrier on which only their sim works)? and main concern that if i will get all the regular updates launched by htc,
thank you
update help
i am sorry the picture wasnt clear before
IMPORTANT Make s-off first.
Sent from my HTC 802w
The phone is indeed from the UK as it's a Vodafone handset. Good news is you can get S-OFF following the revone thread and then flash the generic 1.28.401.7 RUU to get back to 100% and it will then get the OTA updates to get up-to-date
What about the SIM lock .. so before flashing important thing is to s off ..

Hi everyone,
I have a HTC Salsa after some issues with logging into google market place I decided to reflash with the following stock Salsa ROM found on XDA:
RUU_Icon_G_HTC_Europe_1.12.401.1_R_Radio_47.14.35.3030H_7.47.35.17_release_193257_signed.exe
The reflash was successful, but my handset shows software version:
1.12.401.1_R
It used to be:
1.12.401.10
Kernel version is also different.
Does anyone have the stock RUU for software version 1.12.401.10?
...or can anyone suggest how to get the system.img file from an existing handset which does have version 1.12.401.10?
Knd Rgds,
yyo
Good luck. Never play with a systeem iimg. What is your area or country.
There will be no way of getting your exact system back. Its damn near impossible. Closest you will get is by flashing a stock rom. But by the sound of it you have a stock unit.
I'm interested in wwhy u would reinstall the ruu to fix a google play error though. But silly lol, nether the less u did it.
If u tell me your country I maybe able to point u in thee right direction more. But as said. U won't get your original stock back again. And your kernel is bound to be different its newer. Ever thought the ruu u tried is newer than what u had?

Hmm..., doesn't sound good.
Unless version 1.12.401.1_R is newer than version 1.12.401.10 the RUU found here at XDA is older than the version shipping with the handset. HTC is guilty of a lot of things but versioning software in reverse is not one I've some across yet!
My handset was purchased in Nov '12 in the UK and I used the Europe Stock RUU to flash, it was the only one with a version code similar to mine.
Any ideas?

yeah flash the O2 UK one found here >http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?n7e11cv3zzop25a this is version 1.18.206.2
regardless of which network your with...the salsa in the uk is primarily O2
version code just means its the shipped version. the newer the code the better the version. you will notice alot of changes in this ruu including the kernel code but do not worry. it is normal.

Thanks for the assistance, I bought the handset sim-free (off network) so it was true HTC stock - no additional network provider rubbish.
I'm downloading now and wil give the O2 ROM a bash later on.
I also have an unmolested HTC Salsa running the stock rom 1.12.401.10, is there any way to extract it?
KRgds, yyo
No, u maybe able to when u unlock the bootloader and install reecovery, but swapping img files from roms is dangerous and not recommended.
Although its sim free, all salsas in the uk are predominantly O2. It will work, it'll just have so new options there. My suggestion is get it working and test everything. Wifi data Bluetooth etc.

Not a lot. U will get these updates in all stock based roms. U can turn of the update Notifier in settings.
It will probably allow u to download it but it won't install. It wwill just freeze out.

Thanks BigBearEvo all working now, tested the hardware and all looks ok, a number of 'extras' there but I can live with that.
I would note that although the version number is greater, the 02 RUU is dated June 2012 whereas my previous HTC RUU was dated Oct 2012.
Looks like my previous HTC RUU was newer, probably HTC's last update to the Europe RUU before they dropped support for the handset.
Cheers for your help, yyo
anytime lol
hi
want to debrand my fw to Europe stock or ww stock to get latest updates ect
im on cid -orang0001
fw- 1.28.61.7
any help please
S-off needed but not sure it will help, I heard something you will be not able change cid, but that might be just rumors
Sent from my HTC One X+ using XDA Premium App
You cant debrand it unless your s-off, which you wont be on that cid.
But you can unlock the bootloader, flash cwm and install a generic rom, which is pretty much the same. You`ll have no orange crap on it. And you`ll have the latest updates, roms are updated within a few days, sometimes before.
If you want to use another sim other than orange, call orange and get the unlock code.

The software you have is the US Developer Edition and the 4.2.2 update has not been pushed out yet for that device so you'll have to wait until it is.
Thanks do you have any idea when it'll be pushed?

Hey guys
My friend recently bought a Htc One m7 gold, but unfortunately I cant see any option for update the phone in Settings>>About.
I recently bought a htc one xl just like that without update option.
My htc one m7 has everything.
Guide me please.
Thanks in advance.

You probably have a custom ROM installed.
It could be because of the carrier the device was made for doesn't offer OTA updates and removed the option.
Bat cave One
Well, get the CID and model number for us, and what does it say in software info?
you can change ROM with better one from http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=M7,
but you must know your phone CID & MID before dwonload
Thanks guys
Its under carrier.
Solved.
Close please
