Hello,
I bought a European HTC one (unlocked version, with s-off and unlocked bootloader.)
I converted it to a google edition and I would like to go back to sense.
I would like to ask you a few question :
- Can i use the developer edition RUU, I live in France, am I going to have any issue with the radio ? I don't really understand the difference between the RUU of different region.
- Since the developer edition is 4.3 (http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads/P40), is it still necessary to downgrade the hboot ? (because in the google edition guide they say we need to downgrade it).
- I need to change the CID to get the OTA if I use the Super CID ?
Thank you very much for your help
Julien, from France
Follow the guide, that's what it's there for

Thanks but I already read the guide, my question are not answered in the guide..
The guide tells you how to get back to Sense, you can use any RUU you want but I'd just use the EU one setting as you're in France

Do you know if i need to downgrade the hboot with sense 4.3 ?
Thanks
Follow the guide, particularly post #2 as it tells you what you have to do to get back to stock
Yes, I know how to do it, but when the post was written there was only 4.2 sense, hence we had to downgrade the hboot coming from 4.3 Google édition, I just want to know if with sense 4.3 there is the same hboot than in the google edition so I can skip the part "downgrade the hboot"
To flash the RUU you have to be on hboot 1.44, hence why I've said follow the guide

Im going to lose root after this RUU update?

and the AT&T section included...
Yes you will lose root and you would also need to relock your bootloader as well.

MOST IMPORTANTLY!!!
Make sure that if you have a custom recovery that is is updated & double check that it is. Write the version numbers down to confirm, both before & after.
There was an early recovery that could not (CANNOT) be overwritten without flashing a modified PH39IMG file first, then flashing stock or new modified recovery.
If you update with your device with that original recovery, you may be very sorry.
Ok so I put the ICS that Pirate put up before he got mad and took it down. Doing what I had to do in order to get that on my ohone, does that,mean I'm already set to use this RUU and get the "official" ICS update if I so choose?

No you need to relock the bootloader in order to use the RUU.
Ok that's what I had thought, just all this talk of different recoveries and stuff started to confuse me lol... Thanks for the help

Stock Vivid and Beyond ICS
After reading some of the posts - I have a few questions.
I have a stock AT&T Vivid. I believe I can just install the following directly - correct?
http://dl3.htc.com/application/htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_US.exe
Then after upgrade to ICS -- can some one point me to the correct direction to ROOT and SIM UNLOCK the Vivid after I upgrade to ICS?
Thank you!
Run the ruu...Unsure of which tools exactly are for just rooting youl, have to either call att for a simunlock code or purchase one from online

Thank you
So, just to confirm, I assume that "YES" I can run the update on stock AT&T (no rooting required) and then after I upgrade to ICS any RUU will root -- nothing special to root ICS?
Thank you!

RUU=ROM Update Utility. These are full builds released from HTC that will NOT have root. A lot of custom ROMs are built from an RUU, but rooted during the cooking process.
thanks works great! a little slow on my virtual machine windows but that's not the ruu's fault, it's my lack of memory. one thing it doesn't tell you is to put it into fastboot mode.
do we know if Rogers Raider can work with this ?
anybody with rogers already flashed this, please confirm.
Look 4 posts up I already said it will only work for att

What do you mean by this? That before I run the ruu, I need to update CWM to the newest version?
Hi guys,
I'm looking to S-OFF my HTC One (hboot - 1.54.0000). However, it seems I am incapable of using rumrunner because I am currently using a firmware that it doesn't support. My current base is 3.17.401.2 It seems my only course of action is to flash in a new firmware that is compatible with rumrunner i.e.3.17.502.3 but unfortunately, my CID (HTC__039) means that I cannot flash any of them on.
So, my question is, what am I do now?
Cheers.

If you are currently s-on then your firmware must be 2.24.980.2 if it is HTC__039. Check it using fastboot getvar all then check the main version. Then use the same Rom and head to rumrunner for s-off.
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium HD app
Cheers for the quick response buddy. Yes you're right. My main version is 2.24.980.2. It seems that rumrunner doesn't support that version, going up to only 2.24.841.1. I think that means that rumrunner won't be capable for me.
Doesn't always need to match. I was running the same version as u and I s off'd using rumrunner 2.24.709.1 the first day it came out

Haha. Thanks for the reply buddy. You know what? I'm going to take your word for it buddy and attempt the same thing. Seeing as you and I are from Melbourne, maybe we both have the same phones from the same batch.
I'm also using ARHD 21.0 with ElementalX kernel. That shouldn't be a problem right?

Not sure about that but when I did Soff I was stock 4.2.2

Just picked up a new HTC one and am intending on unlocking the bootloader, installing twrp, rooting and gaining s-off. All videos I've seen and all I've read seem to be at least 6 months old, pre 4.3 update. My question is should these procedures all work on my HTC One which is already on 4.3. Just trying to avoid any issues along the way. Thanks in advance for any answers.
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
Yes they are still good involving the method from getting your dev code to unlock your bootloader to installing the twrp (always install the latest version) even getting your phone s-off if your on 1.55 hboot then you need to use rumrunner to get s-off after you unlock your bootloader and install trwp and get root make sure to flash a custom Rom before you run rumrunner

I just got my one as well. Do you need to flash a custom rom before using rumrunner?
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I was literally just about to post a thread just like this lol. I'm not new to rooting but this phone makes it much more difficult than my prior Samsung phones. Can someone explain to me what the difference between unlocking the bootloader is and getting s-off? Also, for several hours yesterday I was attempting to unlock the bootloader but like OP I couldn't find a recent tutorial that involves getting the dev code (I actually found one but itwasn't very thorough). What exactly is rumrunner and a RUU and why do I need them, please and thank you

Hello, I recently got S-Off on my Telus HTC One (Hboot 1.55, m7_ul) using rumrunner. I am wondering if I can convert my model to a GPE. I am open to giving more information about my phone, if it is required.
On a similar note, I tried using this 4.4 ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2341395. However, for whatever reason, the average network speed I was receiving was very low in comparison to my stock Rom. I tried flashing the latest radio, but it did not fix my issue. I was wondering if any of you guys had a fix to my issue.
Thanks for your time.
yes you can convert. grab the RUU from the conversion thread and flash it.

your current firmware is nothing to worry about since you are s off... even if you have a boot.img etc. from a toaserOS you could flash the RUU
