Just flash a HTC stock rom in recovery.
Here is a link to the stock rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752

Thanks for the reply, how do i actually flash it? What software do i need?

There is an app in play store callad .. flashify .. just download it and also download the recovery.img file from the link given in above reply and just flash that recovery image with that app... and done ... you have stock recovery now....

Thanks mate, will I need to put recovery files onto the phone storage first? Currently my phone is rooted by following your method will it become unrooted? I assumed I had to go through boot loader and command prompts in order to put stock ROM. Thanks for the help

If you flash the revolution stock it will become unrooted, but you can re-root afterwards. To flash it you can put the zip on your internal storage (/sdcard) and then boot to recovery. I assume you have either TWRP or CWM installed? From there you can install the stock ROM.
I have a Three HTC One too and am running the GPE Revolution ROM without any issues. Are the updates you are trying to install for the ROM or for apps?

I cant remember which one it was i think it was TWP? How do i find out? I was getting a software update, thats why i want to go back to unrooted. So if i use flashify and the ROM it should work?
Do i only put the odexed zip file onto the storage? What about the recovery img file?

From the top of the ARHD post:
With odexed version you can download and flash OTA from HTC (you need stock boot.img and recovery.img as well)

So if you want to receive over the air updates (OTA) you need the recovery and boot. I don't know where you get the boot from, but I am sure you can find it if you look for it.
Here's some info on how to return to stock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45432325&postcount=2
It's probably just a software update for the ROM that's failing. Go back to stock if you want, but you might want to try ARHD which works really well, and is a very popular, near stock ROM.

All that stuff won't work for you, you are on H3G__001 (2.24.771.3), the .401. roms wont get you any OTAs.
Just flash this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-771-3-zip/
Here's a small walkthrough: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47085377&postcount=44 EXCEPT in your case select "stock recovery" and "stock radio", to get OTAs
My humble opinion.
Hit the thanks button if I've helped

Yeah, but I really don't understand why so many want to return to stock, with those amazing custom ROMs around. Then again, not my call.

Basically I need to swap my phone with Three, so could you please confirm the above method will work for me to?

To answer you quickly: no, same procedure won't work, yours is going to be a bit longer and slightly tougher, but you have S-Off, so it's doable.
Just to confirm, you want to go back to original Three UK (CID H3G__001) Sense 5 based ROM? If so you'll have to give me a bit of time to write things up for you.
Out of curiosity: why would you want to go back to stock

I would really appreciate that if you can find the time.
Yes I literally want it as I opened it out of the box. This is only because I need to return to store due to dead pixels. I literally do not want Three or HTC to be able to tell I modified a thing?

That is not a problem please do not rush yourself. I am in the process of speaking with Three about a solution to this (so I am not without a phone for a few weeks) and so expect that to take at least this week to get solved anyway.
Thanks again.

First off: the below procedure is going to wipe everything off your phone, so backup anything you need to your PC!!
Step 1: go back to Sense 5 Stock
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 (two underscores)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> and confirm CID is HTC__001
Run the following RUU, to downgrade to stock Sense 5: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
This will completely return you to 100% stock Sense 5, but European unbranded version.
Step 2: go back to H3G__001
fastboot oem writecid H3G__001
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> and confirm CID is back to H3G__001
Step 3: restore H3G nandroid
download CWM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-m7ul.img
you should now be in CWM recovery.
download this nandroid: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-h3g__001-1-28-771-x-2013-04-09-zip/
extract the zip on your PC, it will give you a folder called "2013-04-20.21.00.00" place it in your adb folder then push it:
adb push 2013-04-20.21.00.00 /data/media/clockworkmod/backup/2013-04-20.21.00.00
in recovery select RESTORE, it should show you the above backup, so select "2013-04-20.21.00.00" and restore it.
You still need to get the preloaded stock apps (which get deleted when unlocking using HTCdec), so download this:
http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=one-1.28.401.7-preloaded-modaco-withoutmovie.zip
adb push one-1.28.401.7-preloaded-modaco-withoutmovie.zip /data/media/
in recovery, select "install zip" -> "choose zip" -> and install the above file
Step 4: get back stock recovery
the above nandroid may or may not contain stock recovery, but I doubt it does, so get this: http://d-h.st/uGM
now let's reboot to bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery recovery 1.28.401.7.img (closest one to your version)
fastboot erase cache
Step 5: let's get rid of TAMPERED (if it's there) and set you back to LOCKED (not relocked)
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-m7ul.img
download this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_bootloader_reset_1-0-zip/
adb push Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0 /data/media/
in recovery, "install zip" -> "choose zip" -> and select "Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0"
go through the installer and select "Remove TAMPERED" and "LOCK Bootloader"; once finished, and since you're still in CWM, go ahead and:
-> "wipe cache"
-> "advanced" -> "wipe dalvik"
then
adb reboot bootloader
and confirm no TAMPERED and LOCKED status
Step 6: get your 1st OTA
finally (almost) to confirm everything is back to 100% stock, reboot your phone, and set up only basic stuff such as WiFi, check for software update and download & install the 1st one only!
Since recovery is not exactly your version, you may need to reboot your phone manually if it doesnt by itself: the progress bar stopped somewhere in the middle -> press and hold POWER + VOLDOWN, when it reboots keep holding VOLDOWN to get back to stock recovery and let it finish it's business; repeat if it gets stuck again
After finishing the OTA, boot up your ROM, and check you Settings->About to confirm you new version, then reboot to bootloader and do a fastboot getvar all, and confirm firmware and hboot are also updated
Step 7: if YOU decide to go S-On
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
reboot 3 times and make sure it doesnt say "tamper detected - rebooting" and then shows TAMPERED again
as far as I know, this was introduced in hboot 1.55
I really think I should start a universal guide, hmmm
EDIT: I'm sleepy so I hope I didnt forget anything!!
EDIT2: I'll post credits to all those links when I get a chance, sorry guys

[Q] Return HTC One to stock EE carrier UK

Am in over my head here, please help!
After installing cyanogenmod onto my htc one EE UK model I tried to return to stock but am unable to find the correct stock files. somehow I have also installed teamwin recovery and cannot use the touchscreen during this mode?
I am able to get back into the bootloader but when I try to start up the phone the cyanogenmod start up screen seems stuck!
Any help to get back to EE UK stock for the htc one or cyanogenmod again would be extremely appreciated.
Thanks for reading my post.

You can use the volume buttons to move and the power button to select on TWRP (assuming it is not the touch version). Then to fix the problem with CM you should just do a wipe and flash the rom again. To return to stock you have to find your carriers RUU and send that through fastboot/adb, after follow Gizmoe's instructions on this thread to get everything back to stock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?)t=2592068

There's no "two-minute" fix, so a couple of more questions, if you don't mind:
1- does it matter to you if bootloader says UNLOCKED?
2- does it matter to you if bootloader says TAMPERED?
3- you want to go back to stock, in order to receive OTA updates?
4- do you intend on selling the phone or returning for warranty? (and so you need the phone to look "out of the box")

fair enough, here's a quick fix: just download and install this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
using CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
or TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173870
the above ROM is for a Europan unbranded version; it's stock, can be rooted or not (selectable in the installer), unselect "stock recovery" in installer as it won't allow OTA's with your current configuration.
I'm gonna check something, and will get back to you when I can, in the meantime the above ROM will get you up and running. (or you can choose any one of the custom ROMs around)
I'll get back to you later
cheers
PS: maybe you could give me a little background info on why you ended up in this situation, eg do you want to be on stock rom (or custom), do you want to be rooted, etc etc. and if not, how come you unlocked your bootloader
If I understand your intentions, I could help better

once I have downloaded the ROM how do I install it?
what are the links for CWM and TWRP for, do I need to download anything from them?
As you can tell I dont fully understand the tech side of this much. I thought to root the phone I could get more custom features however after doing this I did not like it and wanted to return to stock but could not find the correct ROM and so the issues began.

There are many more downloads required when following the superguide of which I have tried the RUU M7 before and failed at the final stage due to it not being compatible with UK HTC.
the last message from nk77 suggested that all I needed is the Guru reset , which I have downloaded but do not know how to install and cannot see how to do this on the superguide either. Do you know how to install the guru reset?

1- the guide is made to return to 100% stock; mostly for people going for warranty or want to sell the phone, and put it "out of the box"
2- the Guru Reset i mentioned will only get your phone working (or any other custom ROM), it will not get any OTA updates etc.
3- in order to restore to stock (in your case), you need S-Off
4- if you do have S-Off, you can even turn your phone into an unbranded European version
5- to get the ROM (Guru Reset or any other custom ROM), you can use one of three methods (using custom recovery CWM or TWRP):
i- OTG cable
ii- adb push <name of rom>.zip /data/media/0/
iii- adb sideload <name of rom>.zip

3- in order to restore to stock (in your case), you need S-Off
4- if you do have S-Off, you can even turn your phone into an unbranded European version
5- to get the ROM (Guru Reset or any other custom ROM), you can use one of three methods (using custom recovery CWM or TWRP):
i- OTG cable
ii- adb push <name of rom>.zip /data/media/0/
iii- adb sideload <name of rom>.zip

I tried S-Off using Rumrunner but could not do it, the error said debugging is on.

sorry this was the exact error message
ERROR: run rumrunner again and READ (no adb connection to device. Debugging on?
Drivers?)

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that link does very well say:
Applies to: HTC Droid DNA
if i remember correctly (yes you're not the first), that installer overwrites your misc partition (mmcblk0p19) with the kernel, and that's very bad!!
only way to theoretically fix it, is if you can get to a custom recovery. I say theoretically, because most "active cmdline" problems, were unable to get back to a custom recovery, only bootlooping into bootloader.
you could try downgrading hboot to 1.44, that solved it for some people.
but unfortunately, at this time, i have to say it's probably going off to repair pretty soon. (i hope i'm wrong!)

I think you are right....... I flashed hboot 1.44 then the overflow be solved... But when I tried to connect the phone with fastboot mode on 1.44. laptop do not recognize my phone... And I need to wait a short period of time to wait the devices(phone) to recognize itself connected to a laptop!
At first I still can boot to recovery, then it just cannot make it any more!!! Ohhhhhhhh. sosad about my stupid mistake

are you using Win 8.1? hboot 1.44 doesn't work with Win8.1
use a Windows 7 PC (or Ubuntu), to reflash a custom recovery
and IF (yes it's a big if) you can get to recovery, then let me know. If you can't get to a custom recovery, then send it to repair, even a full ruu flash won't fix it.... (already tried)
Sorry

If you manage to get into TWRP, might try restoring a known good mmcblk0p19 by pushing it to /sdcard and writing it with dd.
Code:
adb push mmcblk0p19.bin /sdcard/mmcblk0p19.bin
adb shell dd if=/sdcard/mmcblk0p19.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19
I've attached a zipped up p19 from my AT&T m7_ul.
It's worth a shot as a last resort.

Thank you and I will try it if I can get to the customize recovery.

Most recoveries won't boot with a corrupted misc partition because the bootloader control block (BCB) is written there and it's very likely that the 'junk' written into p19 will overflow the kernel command line when the recovery attempts to read the kernel args.
I could easily do a TWRP build that skipped checking the BCB for args, so that TWRP would boot. Then could flash a good copy of p19 into misc.

well that is definitely beyond my knowledge!! (rewriting TWRP)... though i do believe you made the 2.0.7.4 update :good:
so if you can manage to write up an "emergency" recovery just to get adb working, i think a lot of people (well a few, since luckily this isn't happening too often) could be helped
.... sort of like and ENG TWRP ... i guess touch, and all other stuff isn't required, just a fully functional adb shell and busybox (especially dd)

@davidliu8023
Ok, here it is. I've tested it in so far that it boots, but it was a small change (commenting out about 15 lines of code) so it should be good to go.
Obviously I cannot test the 'active cmdline overflow' error, but the logic that reads the bootloader message structure has been removed, so you should be able to get into recovery with this version even with a corrupted misc partition. Flash it in fastboot as usual.

If you can get into recovery with this then you might try restoring mmcblk0p19 using the instructions posted previously.

So a question @cschmitt: had a quick (uneducated look ) at TWRP code, and see it does look at the misc partition for bootloader message or whatever... but since that's so important, why isn't is either included in an ruu, or rebuilt during an hboot/firmware flash?

nkk71 said:
S...why isn't is either included in an ruu, or rebuilt during an hboot/firmware flash?

I don't think it included because it contains some device specific data used by the bootloader; the BCB, current CID, current OS version (this is why some devices don't show an OS version in fastboot, it somehow gets overwritten with 0x00 in misc.)
That's one of the risks of s-off, you can flash a kernel to the misc partition. With s-on that would never happen.

strangely enough they do seem to vary slightly, from phone to phone, including the CID part, which since flashing 4.19.401.8 is no longer there for me... shows up fine in bootloader and fastboot getvar though. guess CID is being pulled from p3 or p4 (which seem identical, except the offset)

I think the CID in p19 comes in to play mainly if you set super-CID. In that case p4 and p5 have 11111111 but if you check ro.boot.cid when the OS is running it will still report the CID from p19, in my case CWS__001.
I have seen cases where first 200 bytes of p19 are 0x00 instead of the usual values, not sure what causes that.

hmm, and in my case ro.boot.cid is not even there anymore, and CIDGetter is reporting 11111111, so I guess the fallback is actually p19, not p6 as I had first thought.
to write it back or not, that is the question

I wouldn't worry about it. I've had times when CID and/or OS ver in p19 have become blank, didn't cause any issues. And flashing a firmware.zip restored both values. Maybe they are copied out of the android-info in the zip?

[Q] How Update Rooted One

Hi everyone
I want to do a "Official" Update for my HTC One (M7) that i rooted a while ago...
I allready read this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2748547 And i found that the first and most important think is to have a Stock recovery
Unfortenantly i Have a custom recovery (TWRP) and the bootloader is "Unlocked"
What's the most secure and efficient way to be able to update my phone Offcially ?
Thnk's for help

Flash a stock recovery... You'll probably find one in the thread you got your custom one from.
Then just relock bootloader with the command
fastboot oem lock
You can now update with no issues.

if you have unlocked your bootloader and rooted the phone, you'll probably have issue installing the update even if you restore the stock recovery, Like I said in the post you have linked, when you unlock bootloader, /data/preload get wiped. You need this folder and its content back in place to install ota updates. Also, if rooting or anything else you did, modified some /system files, the ota will not install. However, flash you stock recovery back and try the ota, if the ota fails with an image of a red triangle and an exclamation mark inside, then you'll need to restore some files (either /system files or /data/preload files) You have to flash the stock recovery version that match your current version. If you can post the output of fastboot getvar all (minus imei and serialno) we could help you find the recovery you need.
and btw, no need to relock bootloader like said above. Better to leave it unlocked so you'll not have to unlock it again and wipe /data/preload again

relocking bootloader was not required, better to re-unlock it now, or you'll have the same problem with the next ota.
try to reapply the update. when the phone boot in stock recovery and start to flash the ota, press and hold vol+ then power and release both. You'll see some command lines and you'll be able to know which file is causing the ota to abort.
look for something like: unexpected content or no such file or directory)

you can't manually install an OTA if you are S-ON, you need to "download and install" on the phone directly.

hmm, in that case I don't have any ideas.
some users say they had to relock bootloader, though i don't think that's necessary, as the US Dev Edition comes bootloader unlocked by default, and still receives OTAs just fine.
I guess you could try that.

The easy way is to use a RUU to get you phone back to Stock
then download and flash the update.
the more complicated way is to restore stock recovery and the missing files from unlocking the bootloader and then download the update.
Depending on your phones CID / MID some are able to just flash a Guru Reset and choose to install the stock recovery and say no to root and then take the OTA update.
As you already have TWRP why not just install the Stock unrooted 6.xx.xxx.x Rom ? >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-4-4-3-sense-6-6-09-401-5-100-stock-t2854300

[Q] Having Trouble Going Back to Stock

I have been at this for a couple of days, and have had no luck. So here I am posting for help.
I need to revert a HTC One m7 Sprint to stock for my cousin who bought the phone rooted on swappa. She wants it stock so she can get OTA updates. By stock I mean no tampered flag, no unlocked flag and OTA updates, stock rom and recovery. And I'm having trouble doing so, I have no experience with anything other than Nexus devices.
Current status:
1) Flashed this (Sprint-ONE-3.04.651.2-De-Odex.zip) to the phone using CWM
2) Relocked bootloader (I relocked bootloader so I can use official ROM update utility tool to install (Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_3_04_651_2_RUU)) on phone.
3) Phone won't boot into ROM (can't get past bootloader)
4) Now phone won't even boot into recovery

I'm guessing that because S=ON it's checking signature of recovery and failing because recovery isn't stock. If this was a nexus I could just flash the official recovery.img but alas it's not, so I don't know where to turn.
Please tell me how to best proceed.
Thank you and have a nice day.

Please edit out serial + imei before posting thanks.
You will need s-off to go back to stock 100% with LOCKED bootloader, but if you just want ota's that's possible with s-on you just need Stock recovery and Rom. But best you'll get the bootloader is RELOCKED with s-on.
Also it won't boot custom software when relocked. That's why your recovery and Rom won't boot

Unlock your bootloader, and use CWM to install this Rom. In Aroma installer choose YES to Stock Recovery and Radio. NO to Root.
Reboot the phone to take ota's after you've updated relock the bootloader .
I notice the version main is missing from your getvar also. Installing the ota's may fix it but I should be able to help you with that before you do anything else. It will require the bootloader to be relocked so better to do it now if you want to.

Actually it would be better to unlock, flash the Rom first then relock and flash the firmware to restore the version main.
Then reboot and your done
http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/651/
You can get the firmware here. Download it and rename the file to firmware.zip and put it in your fastboot folder. Then after unlocking and flashing the reset.zip. relock and flash the firmware.
Reboot the phone to the bootloader and Connect fastbootusb. Now open your Fastboot command line and type
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
< --- case sensitive.
The phone will reboot to a black screen with a Silver HTC LOGO. This is RUU mode. Now we're going to flash the firmware.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The first flash will be short. It's just a preupdate preparing the hboot for the new firmware. So we need to do the same command again.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The second flash will take a little longer and this time it will flash the full firmware. The progress bar on the phone screen will not reach 100% this is normal as long as the command window has completed its output the flash is done.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You should now see your new firmware version main in the bootloader and getvar. And that's it reboot and take ota's.

Wait what? Can you explain this reset.zip? Or you copied and pasted the above from somewhere else and that step does not apply to me?

The reset zip will restore your stock Rom and recovery and Radio. But you have to Install it with a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP. Which requires the bootloader to be unlocked. Once it's installed you can take ota updates. The bootloader does not need to be locked for ota's.
Then you can relock and flash the firmware.zip which will restore your version main information. Which is missing. Caused by a recovery bug that wipes that info from the misc partition. Installing the ota updates may fix it. Or you can manually flash the firmware to fix it before you take the ota updates. :good:

Oh sorry when you said reset.zip I thought it was something totally new but you were referring to "Guru_Reset_M7_Sprint_3.04.651.2.zip". My bad.
So I followed the steps above including flashing firmware.zip. Now fastboot getvar all shows main having a version. Currently apps are being downloaded, and I will try to install the ota update after they are all done. And there is stock recovery, I confirmed by launching into recovery from fastboot after flashing "Guru_Reset_M7_Sprint_3.04.651.2.zip" in CWM, and the orange triangle with exclamation point showed up.
Thank you for helping me out!
Also one last thing, to clean everything up, how do I reset the tampered flag? And so it shows locked instead of relocked?
EDIT: First OTA was successful!

You will have to downgrade the phone again yes. And s-off is not so easy to accomplish. Unless you pay $25 for Sunshine app.
If you wanted to return it for warranty or sell the device as un-tampered stock. You can use firewater for or rumrunner to s-off both methods are free exploits but are not so simple to get them to work you will need to unlock flash a custom recovery make a nandroid of the stock rom, then root the device again. Probably need to flash a few different roms + Kernels to find something that works.
There's the possibility that neither will work and your only choice then would be Sunshine.
If there's no warranty and your friend just wants stock with ota updates I would just leave it as relocked unless your prepared to put the work in

I'm not sure about the warranty, but I will leave it as is since it sounds like a headache and I really want to get back to my phone, and flash the new android 5.0 preview to my Nexus
Thank you so much for helping me out, you have good knowledge of this device!
