I tried flashing the renovate rom to my sprint one and got a kernal error at the end and it would not boot. I somehow also managed to wipe everything off the phone including the backup so i can even go back to stock. I tried pushing a rom via adb but i can get that to work and when i try use fastboot it says failed and i get a signature verified error. I am really starting to panic because i spent all of last night trying to find a solution and was unsuccessful. I also tried flashing using the ruu but it was unsuccessful but im pretty sure thats because i am on the 1.31 ota and it was a 1.29 ruu because i cant find a 1.31 ruu. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
which recovery do you have installed? if you have TWRP, you could try adb sideloading a ROM.... in TWRP, choose Advanced/ADB Sideload. then you send the ROM to the phone from your computer with 'adb sideload <rom name>.zip'.
if you don't have TWRP installed maybe you can install it from fastboot. there are probably other solutions too, but hopefully this would work. good luck!
Did you relock the bootloader before you tried the RUU?
Managed to softbrick my HTC one o2 UK.
Not sure if anyone has had the same problems, and if they have i cant find it for love nor money.
I can get into hboot and into cwm recovery. Recovery cannot mount sdcard or data, i have ADB pushed cm10.1 to sdcard but cannot access it via the recovery, i have also sideload installed the cm10.1 zip via ADB sideload but i still get a bootloop.
i did have a nandroid backup but in a fruitless effort trying to go back to stock i forgot to backup the nandroid to pc, and when i relocked bootloader it wiped.
I have hboot 1.44 and am using cwm 6.0.3.2 if that helps. I would like to get it back to stock o2uk factory if at all possible (cant find relevant RUU)
Any and all help appreciated. Cheers

do you have s-off? if yes, i'd suggest to flash the official open europe RUU "RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7" (since we don't have a o2uk RUU/Nnandroid):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860
you can use hasoon2000's toolkit for this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183942
good luck
managed to get cm10.1 back on it. Relocking and unlocking the bootloader seems to have reset the /data partition and let me have access...
Softbricked it by attempting s-off. Neither method works for me. With revone i get fragmentation error. and moonshine just tells me to start it again and READ lol

After relocking bootloader to flash correct firmware.zip for moonshine it broke my CM install and wouldnt let me mount sdcard or data. It also wiped out my nandroid... so stuck with a bootloop and no way to factory reset or flash new zip.
Unlocking and relocking seemed to fix it
hi all,
sorry to sound like a complete idiot in advance !
I have been trying for over a month now to find some way to return my phone to stock so I can get the new ota update but im just having no luck !
I have tried everything to unroot , relock boot loader, and return to stock, I can successfully unroot, successfully relock the boot loader but cannot update OTA everytime I download the ota and allow the phone to start update process the phone boots into bootlaoder and a new line appears in the normal messages **** security warning*** when this happens I loose recovery and the phone hasn't updated. I then have to re-unlock the bootloader to then flash a recovery.
I cant flash RUU as there isn't an RUU available for me, H3G_001 , I have tried the suggested CWM nandroid backup, but this fails half way through something to do with android_secure
I cant seem to get the phone to successfully grant s-off to try the change cid method, I have tried to do this using HTC one kit by hasoon but no luck,
if anyone could please help it would me much appreciated
regards

Probably you don't have the stock rom or the recovery, because the secure warning come out when you aren't fully stock..
Look on this site: http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/
Mine One works now fine and i have update to the latest OTA.

Is better link to XDA
still stuck!
hi all as you can probably tell form the age of this topic, I have been stuck for a while !!! (11 October ! )
I am still having problems trying to get the new update 2.24.771.3
my phone is carrier locked to three uk
it is unrooted
custom recovery cwm touch
bootloader unlocked / tampered
I understand I need stock recovery and to lock bootloader
I don't have stock rom
my problem is as follows, my phone has been telling me for atleast 4 months now that I have a software update, when I click it it restarts takes me to cwm recovery verifys install then gets stuck on cannot mount data ....
I understand I need to flash stock recovery, I have tried to do this using the "all in one kit" however when I click flash my own recovery, (phone reboots into bootloader) I then proceed to select the stock recovery.img the cmd box then hangs "waiting for device" I am then alerted by my computer that the usb device has malfunctioned. ( I am on windows 8 and have turned of signature verification)
I cannot use the supposed simple method of RUU as there isn't one available for my stupid network!!
I have tried to use a cwm recovery image, this usually starts then spits out android_secure is missing.
yes I do have a hammer ready to hit the phone with, but just before I do this is there ANYONE with any last tips to help me, because ive just about had enough with this stupid phone !
the phone has 24 hours left to live, can you save its life ?
thanks in advance for any help.
1. You cannot install an OTA with a custom recovery.
2. I've encountered a CWM bug having to do with .android_secure. There's a hidden folder in /sdcard that caused it, I don't remember whether this file is ".android_secure" or another. You can probably wipe the sdcard before restoring the backup. If that fails, you can probably manually restore the backup with ADB (this will be hard).
3. If you want to install the custom recovery, boot to the fastboot and use USB to install the recovery. Don't use a toolkit because they're useless when anything goes wrong.
i just wanted to wipe clean my phone so it'll be like my stupid head, and i deleted everything now nothing is showiing not even on pc adb and fast boot are working, im S-OFF and RELOCKED bootloader -just locked it to do a RUU but i cant seem to find a fitting image what should i do ruu'it anyway
Note TWRP says error E\ unable to mount \Cache
UPDATE: i flashed the most similar RUU and it worked back like charm i re-unlocked it rooted it and flashed cyanogen .
anyone STUCK just read how to flash a RUU and download the similar one.

hello there,
i own an htc one m7 from o2 uk CID o2__001 . More specific the phone was routed and i decided to go back to the stock rom in order to get the updates , when accidentally i erased the system files and the phone now has no OS.
The main problem is that the phone is S-ON HBOOT 1.57 and doesnt allow me to change the CID in order to install any rom. I think the only way to get this thing work is to find an RUU or rom.zip file of the version 5.21.206.3 which was the previous and original one. Both CWM and TWRP recoveries fails to install any rom except the revolution hd which uses aroma installer, but it also fails in the end of the process , it throws me back to recovery when it starts to boot.
I tried to turn the S to Off but i read that the phone has to be able to boot to the main screen which is impossible at this time .
i would appreciate if anyone could find the suitable rom for my phone or at least if someone can backup his rom and give me the backup files.
if there is any other way to make the phone work i would be pleased to inform me !
thanks in advance
Chris

latest ruu for your version is a dowgrade and will require s-off to be flashed. Unless you find a nandroid backup of your version, you'll have to s-off in order to restore your phone back to stock.
Which version of twrp are you using?
The latest ruu i have found is the 4.20.206.16, but it stucks at 5% and either gives the error (htc_fastboot stoped working) with twrp recovery but just stacks there without the error if i use cwm or the stock of the 5.21.206.3. If i try to push it manualy it returns an error that the file is verry big. The newest recoveries that i can use is twrp 2.6.0.3 and cwm 6.0.3.1 and doesnt accepts any newer version of them, if i use newer it starts bootloop. I m 99% sure that if give me a nandroid backup it will work for sure.

you can not flash 4.20.206.16 RUU over 5.21.206.3, it require s-off. For ARHD, you need twrp 2.6.3.3 in order to flash it correctly. Try updating twrp to 2.6.3.3:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-boodloader
Thank you Alray for your help you are the best it worked as you said
