So, not 12 hours after getting my HTC one a few months ago, I unlocked the bootloader and rooted. I used this method: http://dottech.org/103429/how-to-ro...ader-and-install-clockworkmod-recovery-guide/
I knew I wouldn't get OTA updates, but figured I could flash updates via stock recovery. Apparently I can't. I get an error every time, so essentially I have no options to update. I have also noticed that there are a few little bugs that are quite annoying. So, my question is: Has anyone managed to either unroot and relock the bootloader in order to install updates? Or is there a method I can use to update my One with the latest HTC provided update? I made no changes to the phone aside from unlocking the bootloader and rooting. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this phone, but as we all know, having the latest update is a huge part of why we make changes to our phone. And with the 4.2.2 update arriving soon, I would really like to have an option of keeping my One always up to date.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, after tampering the phone and even flashing the stock recovery gives a red triangle suring flashing ota updates.... I spent 2 days on it...
Get s off.... Flash the appropriate RUU for your phone, and let the OTA install itself by checking software updates in setting- about....
This will definitely work....

Thanks Mathrania, but if you don't mind I have a few questions. 1. Is there any way to get s-off without using an adb shell? If so, can you point me to a link that has the instructions? 2. Where do I find the RUU for m7ul? No idea where to get that. I assume once i find it I can flash it using recovery? Your help appreciated man.

Yes there is, a saw somewhere... But i need to find it.... The title of the thread is s off without pc or something like that.... But i am outside rightnow.. Once i reach my place, i can point that out.... And why not abd????
Also, do fastboot getvar all, and post the screenshot here, just remove ur IMEI and serial from there(blackout that)... I will tell u about ur ruu too.

Ok, I managed to get s-off using terminal emulator. Much easier. Now, I just gotta find the RUU. To be honest, I am not sure how to do the fastboot getvar all or what you need in a screenshot. Let me know and I'll provide it.

Boot into bootloader, connect usb cable, slect fastboot..... Now on ur PC, open the folder containing your fastboot files ( hope u have knowledge about that... You can find the fastboot files in the hasoon all in one toolkit as well.... In that folder, Shift + right click... Select open command window here...
Then in command window, type fastboot getvar all.... Copy paste the results to me.

Thanks Agry English. Managed to get it done using the emulator method yesterday. Was much simpler. Not a fan of adb shells. Never was very good at cmd. All I need now is the RUU for my version and i should be good to go.

yeah i noticed when i read firther down the post, i did mine teh same way, but adb isnt all that bad to be honest, i used it to change the MID, looks daunting but as long as you do exactly was is in the guides it will be fine, no RUU for my version so had to make it something else
well my friend, i tried to find your original RUU, but what I am getting is the link to just an OTA...not the RUU which is required to revert you to stock...anyways..
Did you relock the bootloader??? Relock and try to flash the OTA ...it should work... you can do this while being s-off...no issues...
ALright, so I guess I need to relock the bootloader. I assume this will also mean unrooting? Not entirely sure what the easiest way to relock the bootloader is. Any suggestions?
Now, out of curiosity, is there a root method that I can use after updating that will allow me to continue getting updates without having to go through this every time?

While you are s-off, you can relock you bootloader via a simple command....and to be frank i dont remember it, but you can see that command in S-off Revone Thread...its very simple.....you will have to do that via terminal emulator as you are not an ADB guy ...also unrooting the phone, you can see some vidoe guides out there in the stickies...
but i am not sure, may be relocking itself will take away your root access... just try posting this question in the s-off thread to get an expert answer....
Alright! S-off, bootloader relocked. Gonna try the update. Wish me luck. And thanks so much for your help Math. I'll let everyone know how it went for future reference.

Dammit. Still no luck. I'm getting the same error I used to get even before all this when i try to install an OTA. At first it won't verify the signature, but when i push it via CMW anyway, it starts and hangs on "running bug_fix_1" and that's it. No go. So all, this for nothing. Any chance anyone's come across this issue and has a solution? I'd love to get the update. There are a few bugs that really piss me off.

i heard you saying CWM..... you dont have stock recovery?????
No, I'm using CWM. I assume that's the issue? Not even sure where to get the stock recovery for my firmware. I downloaded one, but I'm not sure it's right and am hesitant about flashing it.

either find correct RUU, or make a thread asking for recovery for your mobile....
OK, that makes sense. Sorry about the confusion. Not sure why I said stock recovery. Didn't even realize I did until you mentioned it. So, I'll try to flash stock rec and try again, otherwise, I'll just unroot and see if I can factory reset and start over. THanks again for your help.

are you still rooted? i thought that root disables OTA, so you'd have to temporary unroot first too.. also do you use stock recovery? (just to be sure)
for OTA you need to be:
- On stock rom
- On stock recovery
- On original CID (or supercid)

no problem mate, i'd really like to help you
but right now i have no more idea, because i think everything is prepared the way it should be but still there's this error... the last thing you could try is to put the CID back to the original one (the one you had before supercid) and try again..
but it's confusing me because the first update worked and the second now is stuck...

there is NO 4.2.2 RUU you have to flash a 4.1.2 RUU and then update to 4.2.2
i recommend to flash (ARHD 12.2) its the latest update and has tons of features,
Solutions:
Change everything to original CID, MID, boot and recovery..... no need to relock or anything else...you're S-OFF.
Do a wipe cache and davlink, reboot, and try to update
If it doesn't work..
Flash your RUU again (the one that match to your software and carrier), and ota update everything again... don't waste time trying anything else.. I would choose this one, so you garantee that nothing interfere and you have a stock phone.
is this going to work for me http://androidteen.com/htc-one-updat...cial-firmware/ ??? sorry im noob in flashing roms i know basics only...if you have the 4.1.2 ruu please provide me with instructions...thanks a lot....btw i make my CID back to normal but still have the problem
or should i use this one http://www.androidruu.com/getdownload.php?file=M7/PN07IMG_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.13_Radio_4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_316789_signed.zip
it is my build is 1.29.401.16 and radio 4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01
is this link above Compatible with my version ??
Info:
Bell Mobility HTC One 32GB
S-OFF
H-Boot 1.54 Currently
Fully converted to Google Edition using 4.3 RUU
CID Changed to the Google One
I've literally been on here all day trying to figure this out. I need to sell the phone and can't afford to brick it.
Unfortunately, my Hard drive containing my Nandroids crashed and I lost them.
I cannot find a Bell Mobility RUU. There is a Nandroid backup on HTC1 Guru Here - Very first one listed under CWM Nandroids
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-bm___001-1-29-666-5-zip/
How can I revert to stock with this?
Is that Nandroid a 4.1.2 Rom? Bell never got 4.2.2, they are still on 4.1.2 so I assume so?
I think I can do this - Any help would be appreciated, need to get this done ASAP.
1) Change my CID back to BM_001 using ADB/Fastboot commands
2) Flash Custom Recovery - CWM in this case using ADB/Fastboot commands
3) FIRMWARE? I'm on the stock 4.3 Google Edition Rom - Do I need to flash old firmware? (Hboot, Radios, etc). If so, what files do I flash and how? Can somebody provide a link here?
4) Restore the Nandroid Backup
5) Flash the Stock Recovery back? Where do I get this from for the Bell 4.1.2 rom?
I will leave the phone S-OFF for whoever buys it. Is this it? I need help with Part 3 specifically if this is the procedure.
If anyone can help I'd gladly buy ya a beer!
I know I'm probably over complicating this.... just little experience with HTC phones. My main questions are regarding the CID and Firmware.
Anyone?

Easy on the double posting
Anyway, I think you may have a problem with the touchscreen drivers if you're going to restore using a CWM backup.
Since you're s-off, why not just use the international RUU and change CID to something like HTC__001. Any reason you need to stay on Bell?

I am trying to revert back to Bell so I can unlock the phone. I purchased an unlock code and it does not work. From my research I've done, the phone needs to be on a stock ROM and CID in order for the unlock code to work.
Hey, sorry i have the same issue, i'm with bell as well. i bought and unlock code and then i tried unlocking my phone but it wouldn't work because i rooted it and installed a custom rom, i followed mike 1986 thread on how to unroot and relock your bootloader but as soon as i relocked my booter loader my phone says relocked and i have s-on but now it is stuck on boot loader and i can't sideload a rom because it fails every time. it detects my phone on fastboot but thats all i can do... is my phone bricked and no good now?!?

Ok got it.
Well the steps you describe sound right, but there's the problem of getting the firmware. vomer has a guide with different firmwares, but they're all for 2.24 and above.
Not to mention the issue with the touch drivers.
Why don't you try using the odexed stock rom from mike1986 thread, that would put a stock rom on your phone, and change CID to Bell, and try your unlock code. (maybe even stock recovery)

I would like to install the AT&T OTA of 4.4.2 but have a custom recovery and am unable to upgrade. I am rooted with the stock 4.3 ROM and have the twrp recovery installed. I have S-ON. I've searched around trying to find a way to get this to work but can't seem to figure it out. I've tried looking around for an AT&T 4.3 stock recovery to try and flash it but can't seem to find one. The one from the Dev sticky page is not available for download. Can someone detail the steps I have to perform to get the 4.4.2 OTA from AT&T. Thanks in advance.
[SOLVED]
OK, problem fixed and 4.4.2 installed from OTA. I had relocked the bootloader on my phone so... start from scratch. Steps to resolve
1 - Unlock Bootloader
2 - Get S-Off on device (Makes everything easier). I used Firewater (http://firewater-soff.com)
3 - Flash the AT&T 3.17.502.3 (4.3) RUU from here (http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...3_10-38j-1157-04_release_334235_signed_2-exe/). You may need a different one if not on AT&T
4 - Start phone, check for update. Let it download. Cake.
Now off to redo all the settings on my phone. Hope this helps someone else.
You can extract recovery.IMG from the ATT 4.4.2 OTA update if you can't find anything else.

Doing now.
It downloaded and attempted to install, then failed half way. Anything else I have to do before I update? Do I have to lock my bootloader again or unroot?

It doesn't give me an error. The OTA downloads, reboots and gets to a triangle with the green arrows inside and starts installing, then about 25% of the way it stops and goes to a red triangle. I'm thinking the MD5 to one of my files may be failing. I installed an edit to the framework sometime ago to get the hotspot working (that's the only change to the stock rom I've made). It doesn't really give me an error message though.
It could be the issue. You will need to choose one of the few options:
1. Restore a stock ATT OS for the same version you have (4.3) and update again
2. S-OFF (Preferred to avoid future messy bricks) and reinstall old ATT RUU and then upgrade all the way without custom rom/rooting/firmware changes
3. Wait for someone to post a custom rom install of the new ATT 4.4 update and install that.

Thanks, I appreciate your help. I think I'm gonna go with option 2, depending on how much time I have to do this, or 3 if time is an issue. Just one more question for you. Is firewater the best method to get S-Off or do you recommend a different one?

If the ota stops on the second half as you discribe I think you have the wrong stock recovery. Different version than your "version-main"

I guess it can't hurt to try and reflash the recovery and retry. I'll give it a try.

I had the exact same thing occur, had a newer recovery than "fastboot getvar all"

It could be because I flashed the recovery that came with the OTA with fastboot and then after SaHiLzZ pointed me in the right direction was able to download the 4.3 recovery but flashed that one with flashify. I bet you the one I did with flashify didn't take. Funny thing is I also relocked my bootloader and now must unlock it again and that will probably wipe my device. What a mess, oh well, I hope that's all it is and at least I'm learning as I go.

Your phone is s-on, their is no RUU that will work with your phone
use this GURU Reset and choose yes to stock recovery and radio and no to root during install
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358543706
it's also a good idea to factory reset before flashing the Guru Reset
Also you need TWRP 2.6.3.3 to flash the Reset correctly

It all depends on when you updated the phone before flashing custom recovery
if your on 5.11.401.10 your phone should update normally ...this software matches your CID
However if your on 6.09.401.5 and it tries to update it will most likely fail
I'm not sure how many .401 updates their are after 5.x
