You need to click on settings app which is already installed on your HTC ONE. And then scroll down to About > Software Update. Hope it helps.:good:

Hi, I tried it but still can't find it under the "about" tab. I mean its not there at all under the "about" tab.

Have u rooted your phone and put custom Rom or just the stock Rom? It should show if your have stock Rom. Otherwise need to go to HTC service centre of u have warranty on it.

Do u see an application on your phone called superuser or superSu? Is it's rooted and running on custom Rom then it should tell you the name of the Rom under software number like mine showing Android Revolution HD .. also install one application from play store called root checker and check the root access on the phone. If an pop up comes asking superuser access grant or deny thru root checker app then it's rooted. Also if you can take the screen shot of the software info like I did would be helpful.

It doesn't support if you have custom Rom as on my phone also there is no tab for software update as this Rom doesnt support OTA updates. I think that is the reason y its not showing.

You will need to unlock your bootloader at htcdev.com
Then you will need to download superuser.zip at clockworkmod.com

Yes the down side of unlocking the bootloader is that it will also do a System Reset and wipe out your downloaded apps and data, including your contacts. You can sync your contacts to your Google account and should be ok.

Can you post hboot picture? Hold volume down and power buttons together until a screen appears with 'fastboot', 'recovery', etc.
Also, if you select recovery with the power button you will probably see a custom recovery installed..

It depends how 'original' you want it.. You can find out what CID you have and flash an RUU or you can just flash a 4.2.2 stock ROM like this one.

Can you use fastboot commands? If so, do:
Code:

and copy it here.. Edit: (not your imei or serial no.)

[Q] Root, S-Off HTC One 1.31.651.2

Hi guys,
I'm getting a new HTC One, as my current device is having screen issues. My replacement will be in later this week, and it will almost certainly have the new update (1.31.651.2) installed. My old device was able to be S-Off'd using Moonshine, as it is running a supported version (1.29.651.10.) That's the newest version Moonshine supports, so my question is how will I S-Off my new phone? Will Revone work?
Thanks in advance!
Nick M.

I am so sorry! I found that thread, but it just said 1.31. So I wasn't sure if it was what I was looking for. There were more than one 1.29 updates, so I figured the same for 1.31. I'm very deeply sorry!

My tendency is to go ahead and get s-off, but I still struggle with what it will gain you on this particular device. Unlocking the bootloader seems sufficient.

One very important thing with s-off is if you get soft bricked on 1.31 you will need s-off to be able to use the 1.29 RUU since as of now there is no 1.31 RUU. That's just one example.

I'm not even sure if I need S-Off at this point, I'm having an entirely different problem, but this method is perfect for downgrading.
I have an HTC One, 1.31 stock, rooted, android 4.1, no changes have been made whatsoever
As most of you may know, android 4.3 OTA was just released, being rooted it seems OTAs will refuse to install
I understand the main fix to the problem is using the stock recovery, which I've obtained and flashed with no avail using multiple stock recoveries.
Including the recovery in the framework folder of the 4.3 update itself.
I've tried plenty of other methods such as "OTA Root Keeper", again, with no avail..
Looking at the options I have left, it looks like downgrading to a 1.29 RUU using this DD method to remove root and (hopefully) be able to install 4.3 via stock recovery, however I'm not interested resetting my phone.
Again.
I'm curious if someone here has another suggestion to install the OTA Android 4.3 update that won't require me to lose everything!
I'd definitely be willing to throw some $$$, "PayPal donations" as someone else offered, for a fix.
Thanks!

As far as I can figure, the stock rooted 4.3 Sprint ROM here won't include the firmware (radio, etc). Not sure if updating the ROM without the firmware will cause problems (I've read some people's touch screens are going out).

Kingo Android Root worked well for me until I updated to 4.3 Sent from my xperia z C6606 Sorry everyone, just thought I'd help the guy.
It isn't a matter of not wanting to help. He provided no useful information. The method of rooting varies by device and firmware version, so if he didn't provide that, then nobody can provide the correct information.
I don't recommend using Kingo. It collects a large amount of information on your device including hardware IDs and serials and sends them to a server in China, supposedly in order to download drivers. It does facilitate that, but just the model number could achieve the same. They even used to collect your IMEI until they were caught and stopped. Not exactly trustworthy behaviour.
If you're running 4.2.2 or older, use Root many Android by trusted XDA dev Bin4ry to root. It doesn't collect any info or even connect to the internet.

Here is a post I made in another thread regarding downgrading/rooting.
This may be helpful as well - How to flash stock roms with Flashtool
The images in that tutorial are broken, but the text explanation should help.
It is also possible to root then upgrade OTA and keep root, but it requires SuperSU Pro. If that's the route you want to take, then after downgrading, instead of flashing a recovery-
Root with Root many Android
Enable OTA survival mode in SuperSu Pro
Update via OTA
