Looking for the best way to upgrade my radio. - Sprint HTC One (M7)

My phone is on HBOOT 1.44 and Radio 1.00.20.0315. I am currently s-ON running CM 10.1. What's the best way to get my radio upgraded to the latest? Should I RUU and update to the latest OTA? If so what RUU matches my HBOOT? Or is it better to get S-Off and flash the radio seperately?

definitely do not upgrade hboot. best thing u could do is s-off and then u can flash any radio u want anytime! I have flashed all three this week to test, sprint is upgrading towers in phx area and signal is awful! im s-off hboot 1.44. s-off for sure!!!:good:

[Q] Downgrade radio

I would like to downgrade my radio to 1.04.01.09.21. Can i just run the 1.56 ruu if I am s-off? Seems like being s-off would get around the hboot issues on the older ruu. Anybody know if this would work and/or the best way to install the old radio?
it would be easier to just flash the stock radio through recovery.

[Q] about firmware and soff

my htcone is soff(by revone) and unlock(by htcdev)
now I have some questions:
1.if I update firmware to 2.24.401.1(hboot1.54),can I Reverting to S-ON and Lock the device use revone?
2.if I update firmware to 2.24.401.1(hboot1.54),can I downgrade Hboot by flashing a 4.1.2 RUU?
3.is there any change/deferent between 2.24.401.1 and 1.29 firmware when I use a 4.2.2 rom?
With the s-off you can do all what do you want
even with S-off after I updated hboot to 1.54 I couldn't flash an RUU with a 1.44 hboot. I got mainver error.
The way to get around this is to manually flash the downgraded Hboot then run the RUU.
You can also it seem flash the 2.17 firmware zip found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183023&page=500
and that will allow you to flash a downgraded RUU.
Related question, when browsing the different threads in the One Android Development forums I've come across the specific instructions to install the latest 2.24.709.1 ver firmware multiple times but never thought about doing the upgrade at the time. Now that I want to do it, I've been scouring the threads for those instructions and cannot find them, go figure. Can anyone point me out to one of those helpful links? Thanks
I just switched my phone to S-OFF, that's a requirement, right?

[Q] Just want to confirm if I can flash RUU when I"m S-OFF and CID11111111

All,
I have the Dev Edition with S-OFF and CID111111 running ARHD 13.3. With the latest update to the Dev Edition to 4.3, can I just flash the RUU for the latest of the Dev Edition? Will it work with TWRP custom recovery?
Thanks for any info.
Emh, the RUU isn't a zip, but an exe that you have to flash with the pc...
However, you can flash it
You can flash an RUU when S-OFF with Super CID, I've done it a number of times
The RUU is a complete update so it will overwrite the custom recovery anyway
Awesome guys....with that being said, I have a few more question. Since I'm S-Off and Super CID, you said I can flash any RUU, but it will wipe the custom recovery. That is fine, but when I want to flash a ROM in the future, I will have to reflash a new recovery correct? Will this mess with my HBOOT? I'm on 1.55 right now.
Also, I'm on the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860 looking at the collecdtion of RUU's...do I flash the ZIP, EXE or the Decrypted RUU's?
Again, thanks for your replies!
Download the RUU from HTCDev directly so you know you've got the right file, then flash it with the phone connected in fastboot. It will downgrade the HBOOT and put the phone back to 1.29.1540.16 and be just like it was out the box (except you'll still be S-OFF with Super CID). You can then get the OTA to .17 and then the OTA to Android 4.3...after that, you can flash a custom recovery and do what you want (but I'd take a nandorid first of course)
EDDYOS,
Thanks for all your info!! I will do exactly that!
One last question, I promise...since I am on S-OFF I should not be worried that flashing the RUU and downgrading to HBOOT 1.54 and not be able to achieve SOFF again? Cause isn't 1.54 having issues with SOFF? Or does that not matter to me since I have the Dev Editoin?
Again, thanks for all your advice.
You'll stay S-OFF so it's irrelevant...the only way you'll go S-ON is if YOU make it. RUUs/OTAs don't touch it
Example:
I'm currently on 2.24.401.8, HBOOT 1.54 and have S-OFF (as I did it when I could ages ago). I recently went back to 1.28.401.7 using the RUU and was still S-OFF. I then got the 4 OTAs to get back to 2.24.401.8 and I'm still S-OFF

[Q] It´s possible downgrade hboot with flashing stock RUU?

Hy, it´s possible downgrade hboot from 1.54 on 1.44 or older with flashing stock RUU - RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13.3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe. My HTC One is on 1.54 hboot unlocked rooted but S-on and it´s my problem because I need flashing some things that needs S-off.
Not possible if s-on with hboot 1.54. To downgrade you need to be s-off! If you try running the RUU in your phones present state, the RUU will fail to install, due to the hboot being a higher version presently to the one you are trying to install.
Hope that makes sense?

Short answer: nope. Basically what spikeydoo2006 said. Once you're on hboot v1.54, you can never go back.

hboot 1.55

hey is there any way to update my hboot from 1.44 to 1.55. Can it be done by just flashing a different rom?? I am currently on sasktel in Canada, telus and belll use same network ?? How can i go about updating to 1.55 as that is how i can get my lte back on my phone, thanks
Firmware and hboot are different from rom.
You need the s-off for flash an hboot or a firmware package...
There are some thread about this
Hi there. Thanks
I looked for that . I cannot find the hboot though for my device. I would like to find 1.55 hboot. I did find out how to flash it just font have it to flash thanks

Why do you want to flash 1.55 HBOOT? You will need to be S-OFF to be able to flash that though. What is your CID or mainver from fastboot getvar all ?
I'd like to update to 1.55. The main reason Is to get my LTE back. As since I've upgraded my Roms. I lost LTE even after radio updates etc. My wife's got the same phone and everything but the only difference is she has hboot 1.55 and has LTE.
Cid is bm_001

Mate LTE doesn't depends from hboot, but depends from radio and version of phone.
Which version have you?
Which version ?? I have sasktel Canada.
We both have same exact phones everything. Only difference is wife's has 1.55 hboot mine is 1.44. She has LTE speeds on her phone of 25mbps down 22mbps up . I get 2mbps down barely 1.2 Mbps up. I have flashed various radios various firmwares etc and no LTE.
Thanks

S-Off, and run the telus RUU zip file.
Where can I find it ?? No link on this site work.

Since you're still on 1.44 HBOOT, use revone to get S-OFF. After that, update your firmware with one of the latest custom firmwares available.
If you're still missing LTE after doing all that, start over with a RUU for your phone.
Yes they do. No spoonfeeding here
