Stock ROM, Recovery, LOCKED bootloader, remove any TAMPERED messages, S-OFF\S-ON doesn't really matter if you can get rid of the red text on bootup

Locked isn't neccessary but it's desirable as some countries will refuse warranty if unlocked so if you can get back to locked then I'd say do it

flashing the stock rom etc

Thanks for your offer, I've been throught that already, it's no fun fighting against this phone. I used Crushalot's "Guru reset" shown on the "Easy Stock Reset | Many Versions | Stock ROM + Recovery + Radio Included" thread so now I'm back with a 4.2.2 Vodafone ROM
The reason I need to send the phone back to HTC is that the microphone doesn't work anymore. One thing I have proved in all this messing about is that the software is not responsible for the microphone being shot!

My phone is due back from HTC today. As far as i am aware HTC did not check the software, and I have ben informed that HTC did not change the software. HTC replaced the microphone and cable the backplate and one of the speakers. I think the person that took the phone apart used a nutcracker :cyclops:

I don't know. HTC have sent back my phone with new parts. My guess is that once you prise the back off you need to change it. The HTC One is a major step backwards from the HTC sensation as far as maintenance.

As far as I'm aware the **tampered** flag is there in the same spirit as the yellow triangle on Samsung devices, exactly so they can tell you've unlocked and modified it. Unfortunately, I do not believe there is currently a method such as with triangleaway to get rid of this on the One yet. You'll just have to chance it and send it back as is

RUU
If you download and the One's RUU from HTC's website, it erases the tampered. I discovered this when I had to restore my device to stock with the RUU.
Should be to download the RUU, run the RUU. The bootloader needs to be relocked.
After you set set it back to factory, just unlock the bootloader and you're free to go.
If the exe version doesn't work, the fastboot version should.

Both Brightstar US listed above is the Developer Edition. The CID is BS_US001 (I think they should of used a better CID letters!!). The first one is the EXE, the other is the ZIP for the fastboot version.
I have the Developer Edition as well and have used both EXE and ZIP versions.

You need to open a new thread for this, that is an entirely different phone model. Also, list exactly what you did that caused the problem. People will help, but you need to be in the right place.

[Q] need to fix my phone

I recently rooted my HTC one and a week later my top speaker crackles. I need to send it to Telstra but I need to remove the root. I've looked all over the place and I can't seem to find a ruu or even a nandroid. If some one could point me in the direction it will be greatly appreciated. Also will a nandroid work to unroot? Or do I need a ruu?

You can find the stock ruu at this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752
A nandroid of the original ROM will suffice, especially if you booted the bootloader and took the backup rather than flashing it.
If not, most bootloaders of the same primary version are equivalent.
What was your original software version?
fastboot getvar version-main
Or is that main-version?
Sorry I'm still kinda new to all of this. I used a recovery to root the phone ( team win) but I made the stupid mistake of not making a nandroid before hand. I need to make it look like I never rooted this phone so HTC can replace it. If I can't find something I might just "drop" it in water since I have insurance.

Yes, I had the same issue.
In TWRP, wipe all the partitions except the internal storage. Then flash the rom and choose wipe in Aroma.
Im sure you wouldn't have manually wiped the partitions. The Aroma for some reason doesn't do the job. Manually wipe it and the ROM will install properly

I've got the exact same problem - guessing it's hardware related.
Except mine reboots after 30-60 seconds.
This is the second time its happened - sending back again to get repaired.
Now going on the mission of reverting to stock (again) Lucky i'm SOFF
Hi, i was try this return to stock tampered and relock from bootloader gone but all time phone rebooting (loop)
Put back to cid o2 uk try use ruu exe but all time give me error 158
I will send back the phone but i must flash o2 uk ruu first, second somebody try open the phone without success, scratches, dents around the edge
Regards
I'm having this same problem. I've wiped it several times and reloaded 2 different RUU's and Android Revolution. With Android Revolution I've stopped it from randomly restarting but I still get the process error and it doesn't show a Baseband or IMEI. When I used the getvar in cmd it shows my IMEI and everything looks good.. not sure if its a hardware problem or what. Any ideas and if I have to send it back can anyone direct me to a US T-Mobile stock RUU? I'm still new to this... just switched over from a Galaxy.

[Q] Ending call at 00:00.

Hi,
I am unable to make/receive calls and can't send/receive SMS text messages.
WiFi and data over 3G works fine, so email/browsing is OK.
I have tried SIM cards from other working phones but it's the same problem on this phone.
Used to work fine couple of days ago but now when I try to make a call to someone it says straight away call ended.
Has anyone encountered the same problem? Can anybody help please?
Info:
My phone is HTC One (M7)
Used to be rooted, in my attempt to resolve the problem I have unrooted it and now has stock android, which i flashed on.
The only thing that is different is that my phone is s-off.
I have done a factory reset but this did not fix it.
For some reason, when i try to update my phone over ota, I get a red triangle with a !.
My phone version is 3.62.401.1.
It is Android 4.3. Not 4.4 kitkat.
I can use wifi, and have 3G/H signal.
That's about it. If anybody can help me with this problem, please do! Thanks in advance.

Did you flash anything that could have caused this problem? I assume you have flashed a RUU that contained firmware?
If I were you, I'd try to get the original firmware back onto the phone, then install a "known good" ROM so you know the system isn't screwed up somehow.

well i originally flashed an recovery.img containing the original version of the version I had. I then tried an RUU. Still didn't work though. What do you mean by 'known good' ROM?

I mean a popular third party ROM that most people can use without problems. ARHD, for example. But now that I think about it, if you successfully installed a RUU and did a factory reset, I agree with the other person that said it sounds like a hardware defect. I've had this problem on another phone and it was the firmware and RIL (a problem that only exists for Samsung), but if you flashed a RUU it should have sorted that out.
If you can get warranty service for this phone, try it. This is one of those cases where you should revert the phone to stock, though, because the most obvious answer to why a rooted phone doesn't have calls is "you screwed up the software/firmware".

So my phone is broken?

[Q] Software update missing on settings

Hi there.
I had an Htc one(M7) which was dead and i send it back under warranty and it was told to me that motherboard was dead and they give me back under warranty another Htc one,but there's a problem,there's no 'Software update' under settings/about and this phone is running 4.2.2 and sense 5 and i have no idea how to update it without unlocking/rooting as there's no option to do it OTA.
Can anyone suggest me something?.I'm really desperate.
Thanks a lot

Yup, send it back again and ask them whats going on, its still under waranty, so make it there problem not yours, because as soon as you unlock it, your waranty is gone.

Thnx for your answer.
I haven't tried to upgrade firmware using Htc sync manager and i dont know if it's going to work tbh,but i think that they send me an unlocked device and not really an 'new one'.I have never seen something like that before on other smartphones running pure stock,only with custom roms.
The first Htc one that i bought there was running 4.4.2 out of the box,but this one with 4.2.2 with no chance to update forward Kitkat:nuts:.

Ive never seen it either except on custom rom's, did you send it to a HTC service centre or your network provider ? I would expect HTC to update your software for you, the software you have on there is very old now, post your fastboot getvar all without imei and serial number please, then we can see if its s-off, if it is then you can update to any RUU you like without unlocking.

ahh, the shop is a different story, probably jusy old stock, but doesnt explain the missing software update setting, that is very strange, when they gave you the replacement phone, was the box factory sealed still, I would check its not running something custom, that someone previous has messed with a returned to them, they may of had it fixed in-house and just stuck it back on the shelf.
