[q] no os in htc one

Hi ,
i have a HTC ONE mobile phone, few days before i tried to install cyangonMod but unfortunately due to faulty USB my installation broke up.
so i ended up with no OS installed on my HTC ONE. later i searched out the forum and rooted back to the ROM as it was.
i founded links for the RUU zip files to install but since my phone is not linked with any operator, i have no clue which link to use.
my friend suggested me a link which was
RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_4A.13.3227.06_10.27.1127.01_release_308001_signed_2_4
when i try to install the zip using the following commands
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_4A.13.3227.06_10.27.1127.01_release_308001_signed_2_4.zip
i received following error
sending 'zip' (1010948 KB)...
OKAY [ 46.936s]
writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) signature checking
FAILED (remote: 12 signature ve
finished. total time: 133.252s
I have been trying all different ways but so far no solution.
could any one help me get back to my Android please

Thank you in Advance

You need this RUU, and because its a downgrade, you will need to s-off first and then flash hboot 1.44. After your phone will be back to stock 1.28.401.7 and you will receive ota to latest version. Follow this procedure and don't forget to thanks the OP for his awesome guide :good:.
The other option if you don't want/can't s-off is to use this rom (guru reset). this is the stock rom for your version, and you will be able to update ota after. Instructions for guru reset can be found here

Still not working

The first solution didnt work cause since i have no OS in my HTC so adb functions are not working, since adb functions are not working so i cant do an s-off
The second solution: i dont know how to get the zip file inside my phone cause i cant execute adb sideload, is there anyother way to trasfer the file to the phone or is there any other way of executing it guru reset.

Boot your phone in TWRP recovery, dont select any option, just let the phone boot in twrp main menu
then:
Code:
adb push name_of_guru_reset_file.zip /sdcard/
then in twrp select install, chose the .zip and follow instruction in aroma installer.

[Q] Flashing OTA help? - 4.3 -> 4.4 [SOLVED]

I've seen similair threads but nothing posted seems to work for me, and i've been trying to get to stock 4.4 for what seems like ages.
I'll attach a getvar below, but essentially i'm on stock 4.3, although rooted and with TWRP recovery. Despite that, I received the OTA that would update my phone to 4.4.2. I know my phone has the right CID, MID, and firmware for the update, i double checked, and the fact i received it anyways. I've tried installing the OTA on various "Stock" recoveries, i've found around the forum for the htc one, but all have failed and its ended with a red triangle over the phone, and then it gets stuck booting; forcing me to flash a custom recovery, push a nandroid, restore, and start all over again.
Simply, i have an OTA, the right firmware, CID, MID etc, but can someone tell me or point me towards a recovery it will work with, or a work around (I've seen things about extracting the firmware.zip from the main one etc etc). Any reply will be helpful, all i want is for it to install.

Is the stock recovery you've been using from a 3.62.206.x ruu?
It needs to be the same version as your current OS.

Had same issue. Apply it manually from sdcard.

I don't think it was actually, so do I need to find an o2 RUU, and pull the recovery img from that?

No. Apply it through stock recovery.

Use the recovery.img from your downloaded OTA zip file and try again, that way work for me but i have to redownload the OTA file thou...
I was updated from 2.24.*.* to 3.63.*.* and 4.20.*.* .I use the stock recoveries around the internet I've fond and fail. Than I extract the recovery.img from my 4.3 OTA zip, flash it on 4.2 OS and than just tap Setting>About>SoftwareUpdate. it went well. I countinuously updated that I can't even copy the 4.4 OTA zip file

sounds like your data/preload folder is missing, it gets deleted when you phone resets when you unlock your bootloader, we will need you fastboot getvar all to help you.

Thanks for reply.
I tried to run fastboot on my mac, but adb devices is giving me attached device but fastboot devices is doing nothing. So getvar is also not working. Did some googling, nothing helped yet. I have Ubuntu in another laptop, will try on that tomorrow.
Also fastboot (in phone) was disabled, do you think that might do something with update not installing?

Nope, your update isn't installing because a folder it's looking for is missing, that folder is data/ preload and it's contents

Well, thanks a lot for all your answers. Now I have more questions.
I tried to do S-off using firewater, but seems like I don't have su in /system/bin/sh to get super user permission. Can you please help me how to get su or get s-off in general.
Thanks a lot again.

go here: http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/
and follow the 3rd set of instructions, temp root method, if that fails with the whelp message then use sunshine s-off which will do everything for you. http://theroot.ninja/
or you can use alray's way which is a little more complicated, but would also work.

Cant downgrade from gpe / 5.01

Hi, Hope this post is in the right place, apologies if not.
I recently got a HTC One (M7) which was already unlocked, S-OFF and rooted and had 4.4 on it but i wanted to upgrade that OS so installed GPE and then it updated a few times to 5.01 which was all good but now i want to go back to 4.4 and this is the problem i'm having.
I'm in the UK using a O2 UK RUU file which i know does work but now when i go to use it i get as far as 'Checking Header' (5%) and thats it ..it wont go any further? I have tried in compatibility mode but that just returns errors.. I am using Fastboot & ADB tools and tried pushing the firmware but i'm really quite a novice when it comes t stuff like this ..
I tried fastboot getvar and all i get it a list of commands now which i dont understand
I do know my CID is 111111
Here's the Bootloader Info:
*** UNLOCKED***
M7 UL PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID 11111111
HBOOT 1.54.0000
RADIO 4T.30.3218.21
OPEN DSP v34.120.274.0429
OS 5.11. 1700 .3
All i want to do it flash the phone back to original Stock with OS 4.4 ..
also, when i try to go into recovery it wont let me, i get the green android laying on his back with a red exclamation on him and pressing up with power dont take me into recovery.
Any idea's please?
I would like to thank xda and it's members for all the help previously.. thanks guys

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

Hi and thank you for your help.. i tried looking for the correct firmware.zip but after trying to flash it i get errors and 'fails' i'm not exactly sure which firmware i should be using - i did go to HTC site and selected what i thought were O2 UK FW files (1 was MR 3, 1 MR2 and 2 x zip files) so i assumed the .zip files were the FW files but its with these i got the errors. When i flashed them it did read them but aftr a few seconds returned a fail.
The RUU i am trying to put back on is RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_O2_UK_4.20.206.16_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353143_signed_2 which i know works on my device as i used it before i installed the GPE.
Any ideas please? I'm sorry i cant provide any more information.

Hi and thank you for your help.. i tried looking for the correct firmware.zip but after trying to flash it i get errors and 'fails' i'm not exactly sure which firmware i should be using - i did go to HTC site and selected what i thought were O2 UK FW files (1 was MR 3, 1 MR2 and 2 x zip files) so i assumed the .zip files were the FW files but its with these i got the errors. When i flashed them it did read them but aftr a few seconds returned a fail.
The RUU i am trying to put back on is RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_O2_UK_4.20.206.16_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353143_signed_2 which i know works on my device as i used it before i installed the GPE.
Any ideas please? I'm sorry i cant provide any more information.

Well you phone is having a bit of an identity crises
you have hboot 1.54 ( assume it's the Dark bootloader for GPE)
your Firmware version is 6.x.401.x which is for the International version
and your CID is O2
I'm going to recommend you convert to International by changing you CID
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
then flash this firmware
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407574077
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot
followed by this RUU
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe
or
RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_HTC_Europe_4.19.401.9_R_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe - 1.50 GB

Maybe a little late but you could also try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
Go to post #2 and follow those instructions. Then flash whatever RUU you want.
I converted to GPE one time, didn't like it and also had trouble getting back to KK.

Thanks again for the help.. much appreciated - im using TWRP v2.7 and wiped the whole phone by accident - i'm trying to push (adb sideload fw_4.19.401.9_custom.zip) but keeps coming back as no device - i have a yellow exclamation in device manager under 'other devices' 'one' and cant seem to find a windows 7 driver for this? once i can push or sideload the firmware i can flash it correct?
Thanks again

So to refresh my memory, you were on stock GPE and want to go back to stock sense correct? Now you have wiped the phone using twrp and twrp is all that is left?

When i'm in recovery mode (TWRP) i get the yellow exclamation (screenshot hopefully attached)

First you need to get the driver working. Click on "one" and see if you can select from a list of devices on the pc. Now if the last working firmware on the phone was gpe then you need to push/sideload a gpe based Rom. This is because the partition structure is different than sense. You need to get a working Rom onto the phone first.

Post your fastboot getvar all output, but erase your IMEI and serial number from it. That way we will be able to point you in the right direction

This old device received officiall Android Lollipop years ago, so you'll be fine with pokemon go. I'm gonna see if I have my old h-boot stored for you when I come home from work. I think you can go directly to the last one because your phone is s-off, but I'm not sure about that because your h-boot is very old. If you can hold on for about 12 hours, I'll point you to the right direction then

Downgrade your version-main # to 7.18.708.2 using the guide at the end of this post (how to downgrade with s-on). Once done flash the 7.18.708.21 RUU using instruction of this post. Finally you'll have to take 2 ota update so you're back on 7.18.708.51 (if you need to unlock/root again make sure to install update before)

fastboot oem rebootRUU will make your phoned reboot in ruu mode (that black screen with silver htc logo). Once in ruu mode, it's time to flash the ruu using "fastboot flashing zip ruu.zip". During the flashings process you should get an error saying "flush image again immediately", the phone will reboot itself in ruu mode again and the flashing will continue,it's all normal.

If the ruu flashed fine, it's not rooted anymore. Root files are stored on the /system partition which is wiped and flashed back to stock with the ruu.
