Not sure if i totally hooped, hope not. Any help would be appreciated.
HTC One, Rogers, Flashed Google play edition 4.3 and tried to update 4.4 VIA on the phone, ( I know, not smart)
Don't have a recovery option
Can still use fastboot on the computer and my phone, clueless for commands and would need to be explained to like a toddler
Tampered
Unlocked
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.44 0000
Fastboot does still work thought this would be helpful..
If any one of you have a possible fix, that would be awesome.
System is wiped, all the cache cleared and whatnot.
Also, here is the getvar.. Considering i see something that says ALL FAILED, doesn't sound so good lmao http://gyazo.com/ca63015a59bb4323e423dca458987553
I read this a few times and not sure what your problem is.
What do you mean by "don't have a recovery option"?
Can you flash recovery using fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img?

Well, i forgot i did my root about 2 months ago, and totally forgot to make a recovery. Thus i have no recovery to just revert back to, which would of solved this problem in the first place
Another update, tried to flash CWM for it, and had this happen. Not sure why, any fixes? http://gyazo.com/dec69f77e68e3001930de84186532a01
Try twrp 2.6.3.0 for a change

Tried this, WAY better than CWM. As far as recovery goes, what should i use? I don't have anything to recover to. Is there something that i could use to revert back to stock? Or even install Kit Kat? BIG THANKS AHEAD OF TIME EVERYONE
Another update, i looked through my phone storage and found the ROM that i used to for google play,but it says 'This operation may install incompatible software and render your device unusable' Should i go through with this??? I am not doing anything until i get a response to this
Boot to twrp and then run a command prompt and write
Adb push nameoftherom.zip /data/media/0/
The Rom.zip will be placed then in the root of your sdcard and you 'll be able to flash it. Better transfer a Google edition 4.3 rom if you have already Google edition firmware. Otherwise flash ARHD31 and see if you can get s-off and make things even better

Okay, it was not originally a Google edition, i flashed it to it, and lost the stock firmware. Should i just do what i said in my previous post? I would like the 4.4 anyways
So what happens when you reboot?
Also you should stick with 4.3. 4.4 is giving lots of issues. Won't suggest it unless you are soff
You are S-ON so NO you can't flash 4.4. for now. If you follow my steps you can get your phone back to a working state and then head for s-off which will let you install 4.4 without any issues

Forgot about S-ON. Steps being what you posted earlier?
Once again:
a. Boot into twrp recovery
b.run a command prompt within your fastboot folder
c. Type adb push filename.zip /data/media/0/
d. After its done use twrp to flash that Rom you just transferred and make full wipe.
Phone will boot to that rom and then you decide if you go for s-off or just stay like that

I've been trying to get the 1.29.1540.16 update in my HTC One Dev Edition. So I tried to flash the Stock RUU I downloaded from the HTC site, then download the OTA and then run it from the phone but it just takes me to the TWRP recovery (after I unlocked the bootloader, on "relocked" it just took me to the fastboot screen). What am I doing wrong?
Also when the first time I flashed the RUU (like 2 weeks before) the "Tampered" went away, this time this isn't happening.
Tried relocking/unlocking.
Don't know what to do. Help very much appreciated.
You have to flash the stock recovery first then run the RUU.

Recovery is different and it's not included in the RUU (I think). To flash the stock recovery you need to be in fastboot mode and flash via adb. Use this guide by mike1986. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618. Scroll down to the "Going back to stock" section.

Didn't answer before cause I went out to the movies (and of course I didn't enjoy the movie thinking of this).
Right on the money Mac!. Hadn't unlocked the bootloader, did it and worked like a charm. Can't thank you enough, I could install the OTA and that fixed the issues with the capacitive buttons that were my only reason to do so (although phone's so great I think I'd have used it with the buttons issues as well), one last question though: I still have the "tampered" sticker, is that because I did it the other way around? I mean, should I have installed the img file you gave me and then flash the Stock RUU and that would have erased it?

Hey i have got the same problem, can you guide me?
I'm on a GPe with custom kernel and recovery and root. I'm trying to take the OTA and I've flashed back to a stock kernel, but it doesn't seem to "take."
Sweep2wake still works even after a flash. This is the most confusing part for me. It even sticks after a kernel flash and factory reset.

Are you trying to take the OTA directly through the Device OTA option or via this thread?: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2390319
If you're doing it direct through the phone it wont work without stock kernel and recovery. If you download the OTA in the thread I linked and follow the instructions it should work.

This is ridiculously aggravating.
I've got a stock kernel, stock recovery, OTA file on my SD card in about 3 different places.
Every time i boot to recovery it tries to mount hte storage 5 times and fails. Then clicking install from any location (cache, sd, phone storage) just says "invalid operation" and the phone reboots. Whats the problem here??

Sounds like you have an issue with your stock something (recovery/kernel/hboot). If you're on a GPe One just flash the RUU for 4.2.2 and then try again.

Yeah, I think I'll do that. I just don't know what it could be, all i changed was the kernel (to get logo as recent apps.)
Thanks.
Did you relock the bootloader? If you want to use OTA's, bootloader has to be locked in order for it to install.

But you have S-OFF. That bypasses bootloader anyways. Doesn't matter if the bootloader is locked then; S-OFF will eliminate the security checks.

Ohh, Ok, that makes sense then.
So, I was trying to put the Google Edition rom on my HTC One for Sprint. I had the right rom and everything. I noticed Wi-Fi wasn't working so I took it off and tried to go back to stock and then I noticed that the version on my phone (1.31.651.2) was higher than the version on the RUU. I have no OS installed on my phone and every time I try to flash a rom, it tells me I'm unrooted. Then, when I'm prompted to install superuser, it just reboots. I am now stuck in bootloader and recovery. I have absolutely no clue what to do. I have S-on as well. Please help!
All I can think of is to use this stock ROM here based on the 1.31 firmware and use the adb flash method. But I'm not sure if that would work as flashing .img's from adb would require S-OFF. Then again I am a bit new here, and others with more experience could chip in and then I may learn from it as well.

You need to s off. You get a lot more options for recovering from things like this. The thread is in one of the development forums here. Use moonshines method or download the all in one tool and use revone. It's really easy. Then you should be able to RUU back to stock and reroot.
I want to thank you guys for helping me first and foremost but I could not get revone on my phone and I couldn't do moonshine either. Moonshine ended in an error and revone requires root which somehow I don't have. I don't think there is any way I can get s-off

Try sideloading through TWRP a stock rooted Rom
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium
So I recently accidentally wiped my internal storage which pretty much bricked my phone. I was rooted with S=on and custom recovery. Sideloading would not work for me, tried using TWRP and Clockwork mod recovery. I was able to return to stock though using this method : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250904. Worked like a charm, then I unlocked the bootloader again, flashed a custom recovery again and rooted again. I didn't see anyone else post the above thread, so I thought I would share in the hope that it helps.
Hi guys, stupid as I am, i tried to root my HTC one, and failed. Somehow I could not install the root and everything just got messed up. I posted it in the sprint HTC one section, although mine is bought in Norway.
Alright, my problem is that there has not been released a RUU for my version, I belive. And then I have no idea how to do it. I would highly appreciate any help I can get. I have no idea how often I'll be checking in on this forum, but you can contact me on skype if you're willing to help !
although I'll be following this thread, so any responses would be read.

Thanks !
You better post this in the M7 thread. I don't know how much you messed up, maybe the ruu is not necessary, but as a last resource, taking for granted that your phone is a GSM model you can get s-off than change your CID and flash an unlocked or developer edition ruu.

We can talk here. It's a pretty simple procedure. Copy this file to your ADB folder(the one you used to unlock your bootloader) http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
Make sure fastboot is unchecked in power options and turn phone completely off
Boot into bootloader than Fastboot
From fastboot.
Than open command prompt in this folder and type:
"fastboot erase cache"
From fastboot. Use command "fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img"

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.

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.

Ya, I was lucky, had a nandroid . But you are right the recovery in the ota is too new.
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. Thanks everybody for chiming in.
