HTC One update gone bad - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I received from phone info that 4.4.2 update is ready for download, I let it download and when it asked me to update I said yes. After update, phone rebooted and I got picture with red triangle and exclamation mark.
What to do? I cannot wait for this to be fixed, nor I have time to wait for my operator to fix my phone, since this will last at least 2 weeks.
It can go to stock bootloader without problem!
How to flash original img to my phone, and let it on 4.1.x until they fix this?
Please guys help me with this...
If it is of any help, I had EU version of phone on Serbian Telenor network.
Cheers...

Are you rooted, or have you done any modification?

It was rooted, but I did returned it to stock, and it did get like 2-3 big updates till now without problem (one was 4.3.x as far I remember). It has S-On.
Any hope for me?
Cheers...

Hum, probably a bad flash and the solution it to flash it again, but i guess you can't since it was an OTA.
If you have a backup, you can try to hard reset it from the Bootloader and see if it works.
You could also unlock the bootloader, and flash a stock rom.
You have to google it, i'm sure some other had the same problem.

...so I can unlock my phone even with not entering the OS alone? Will try it tomorrow, cannot do it tonight too tired.
Cheers...

...I just noticed that I cannot install Stock RUU on my phone until I get hboot @ 1.44.
My phone CID is HTC_032, OS is 3.62.401.1, Model PN0710000 and has PVT SHIP S-ON
So how to do this, can anyone help me?
Cheers...

When it happened to me, I just held down the power button for a half a minute and rebooted to Android again and downloaded the OTA again(first time it asks you to install an update, you cancel it, because it's the data that's still downloaded from before and it's corrupted, then you download it again). No unlocking, no RUU flashing.
You just probably downloaded a corrupted OTA data, that's why you got the red triangle.

Unlock the bootloader. Then flash a custom recovery, and then a custom ROM

Problem is that I cannot enter OS at all... only Bootloader (Fastboot etc.), but when phone tries to boot it passes first screen and then stops at loading OS, that's where red triangle is.
Didn't find way to redownload it from bootloader, or am I missing something?

No,if you can't access Android OS, then you can either try to factory reset trough recovery. Maybe that helps.
If not,and if a service center is not an option,then you have to unlock your bootloader,flash the latest TWRP recovery(recommended,you can flash CWM instead) and then flash custom ROM.
How to unlock bootloader,check out this link,it's just above your topic...

Good tutorial,I'm glad you found it and managed everything yourself:good:.
It's been a while since I S-offed,but I think Rumrunner will be the best if not the only choice for doing it. But check which firmware numbers are supported and which not,don't upgrade your phone too much:laugh:.

You are doing too much at a time:laugh:. Go slowly:laugh:.
What's your firmware number? Install a ROM that goes with your firmware number. For instance don't install Sense ROM if you have GE firmware installed.
When you get this right, S-off your phone and everything will be easier from there. And like I said, don't upgrade your phone to a too high version because not all versions of firmware are supported(I think so, I'm not sure).

Hehehe, moramo pričati tako, da nas svi razume:good:.
In English:laugh:. You have a 4.3 Sense firmware. You have to find a stock ROM of 4.3 Android that matches this firmware number.
Than go to Rumrunner theme and read instructions about how to S-off you phone. When you're done with S-off, you remove the tampered flag and lock you bootloader.
But first, install stock ROM and S-off with Rumrunner. Then we'll continue:good:.

[Q] HELP!!! Unroot Attempt - Different Fastboot than the normal

Hello All,
Here's my dilemma. I successfully rooted my HTC One (AT&T), and was recently attempting to unroot it. I followed this one here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823. Since I have the AT&T version, I downloaded the first one the list found there, however it wouldn't verify. Next I downloaded the AT&T AIO here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2242635. I was able to use that to figure out according to the info it displayed that I actually needed the Google Edition one from the previous link. I thought that was weird since I dont have the google edition one. But when I fast booted that one, everything appeared to go through with a hitch.....Until it restarted.
After it restarted, I only have a black screen. No start up. I restarted the phone and went into the bootloader and to my surprise, the bootloader was black instead of the normal white.
I've tried several RUUs found here http://www.androidruu.com/index.php?developer=M7
I've tried both the exe and flashing the zip.
I have no clue what to try next. Please XDA, your my only hope.
Are you s-off? I would assume so if you've been able to run multiple RUUs and are getting weird signature results. What mods/roms did you do to your phone before you started all this?
If you can get to bootloader, you're not bricked. You're on the 3.06 GE hboot, but it's not clear why you can't boot up.

Were you ever s-off? You should not have been able to run that GE RUU on an s-on AT&T phone.

You bought it new? Not used from someone else? If so, it was always s-on.
You're on GE firmware somehow. It's possible you have a conflict with your model or carrier ID. Can you run through the exact steps you took when you started trying to unroot? Exactly which files you used and how you ran them?

I received the phone directly from HTC through a sell to earn contest.
Not sure if it matters much but I unlocked the bootloader through HTC Dev.
To unroot,
1) Put phone in bootloader with fastboot
2) Relocked bootloader
3) fastboot oem rebootRUU
4) fastboot flash zip 2.24.401.1.zip (failed)
Used one of the AIOs that stated I had modelid: PN0712000 and cidnum: CWS__001. That when I grabbed the GE version.
5) fastboot flash zip 3.06.1700.10.zip
6) Phone finished, rebooted to a black screen
7) Rebooted into bootloader (Which is now black instead of white)
8) Sad ever since....
Where did you get that GE zip? I'm not sure why the AIO toolkit told you that you were GE but I'd like to check the file.
I suspect the problem is that you have 4.3 GE firmware but a 4.1 OS. Flashing a 4.2 or 4.3 rom might fix.

:facepalm: Just realized the issue.
Your bootloader is locked and you still have custom recovery installed, I'm guessing. Can you select Recovery in bootloader and see what happens? If you're still with TWRP or CWM, that's the issue; you can't boot locked on custom recovery.
You have to unlock again or flash the stock recovery in fastboot. Unlocking will wipe your phone, unfortunately.
Flashing recovery in fastboot is easy if you have the stock recovery file.

You are right about having the recovery option in the bootloader but when I try to select that option, Android shows up with the spinning blue thing in it's stomach, then it dies with a red triangle.
I'll try flashing the recovery again. After I find a stock recovery img. LOL
Thanks again!!!

Found the stock recovery. Attempted to flash it and got this:

OKAY [ 1.786s]
writing 'recovery'...

FAILED <remote: 12 signature verify fail>
finished. total time: 3.178s
Is there a different way I should be doing it.

Actually, I think that red triangle is stock recovery. I think to get to the recovery options you press power+vol up on that screen. But it doesn't matter because clearly you're not on custom recovery.
I don't see that 3.06 firmware package in the OP of that thread. Can you find the post you found it attached to?

If you click on the download link in that post for the GE it downloads as that 3.06 firmware..
Also, not sure if it was smart or not but I unlocked the bootloader again to see if it would fix the conflicts you mentioned before. Haven't tried flashing anything yet...
ADD: I just successfully flashed the stock recovery.... Too scared to muck something up so I'll waif for your superior guidance!

I forgot Mike updated that link.
Okay, I see what you did now. You've essentially upgraded your phone to a GE because the android-info.txt in this official firmware matched your MID and CID; that allowed it to run. The problem is that you can't go back now because you're s-on. Your phone won't boot because you have the GE kernel installed but I assume a Sense rom.
This should be easy to fix. You can flash custom recovery now that you've unlocked, then flash a custom rom. This will get your kernel and rom consistent again and you should be able to boot.
Unrooting is a different story. You can't go back to the stock configuration you had when you got the phone without s-off, which you can't get on 1.54 hboot. I'm afraid you're stuck until AT&T releases 4.3 and you can run a RUU.

So no getting my white bootloader back till next release? That's ok.
However, how do I flash the custom ROM. I got the customer recovery going but I don't know how to get the ROM on there.... Flashing isn't working, still getting signature failures.

You can only run a later firmware. When the signed 4.3 Sense firmware is released (it may be there now), you should be able to run that and get back the stock HTC bootloader.
You need to adb push the rom file onto your phone. There is a tutorial for doing it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986

[Q] Help! Problems to unroot M7_UL!

Hello everyone,
This is my fisrt time writing in this forum, hope you guys can share some knowledge with me. Here is my issue:
I bought a HTC One to a guy a few weeks ago with barely no use. The thing is that I didn´t know at that time that the device was rooted with the MaximusHD. When I realized about it I reset my phone to factory settings and the new 4.3 3.22.1540.1 got installed. Thought it was ok but it is still doing some weird things so I decided to unroot the device to stock, also for warranty porpuses.
The problem comes when I try to download the RUU for my device due to I cannot find it. Should I do it through other method? Do I have to S-off to downgrade and install the RUU 1.29?
My phone is the following:
M7_UL PVT Ship S-On RH
Baseband 4A.17.3250.14
Hboot 1.54.0000
OpenDSP v31.120.274.0617
It is the european unlocked/international version bought in Spain.
I would really appreciate if someone could give a hand on this and guide me in through this process. I was an iPhone guy and now I'm freaking lost.
Thanks so much!

Your bootloader should already be unlocked, so simply get S-OFF using Rumrunner, then follow this guide.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried to s-off my htc but it hasnt worked. So I downloaded the recovery stock version and after installing it, the device told me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i wanted to install supersu, i declined and then made a recovery. Phone looks like unrooted, although within the bootloader it still shows "tampered" and "Unlocked". The recovery mode that the phone had installed has disappeared so I dont know what to do now, should I continue to s-off the device and then put it down to hboot 1.44 and follow the unroot guide???
I would like to make sure my device is unrooted in order to gain warranty privilages just in case i need to send out my phone to htc...
Thanks!

I would like to make sure my device is unrooted in order to gain warranty privilages just in case i need to send out my phone to htc...
Thanks!

You don't really have a choice, unless you have the RUU for your phone. Can you post the results of "fastboot getvar all" so we can try to figure out what to do.

I've attached the results in a jpg file. The only thing that has changed is the baseband...it went up to 4A.20.3263.16

Just a quick note here, "version-main: <blank>" I never like that.
BTW, when posting "fastboot getvar all" it's preferably to remove IMEI and s/n; we don't need to see that.
You should probably get s-off as @attanasi0 suggested and then run a "HTC__304" downgrade RUU. (You can only downgrade if you're S-Off)
Just my two cents

Im sorry about the pic, I'll edit my msg later. Im trying to s-off but it fails everytime. Dunno what to try now...
In regards to the "version main", I tried lots of times but it was blank all of them, dunno why. Some of you guys know what the reason could be?

When you boot to bootloader does it also show nothing in OS (7th line down or so)? Can you remember the last OTA you took?

Right, it shows just OS- but nothing else...when i bought it the guy had installed the MaximusHD 13 and I updated through OTA to the MaximusHD 20 but wasnt going smooth so I reset it to factory settings and It installed the JB 4.3 (3.22.1540.1).
Today after trying to s-off without success, I downloaded the recovery stock version for the rom I had and flashed it and the recovery mode that I had before disappeared and the baseband upgraded to 4A.20...instead of the 4A.17 that I had before that. Did the guy who sold me the htc messed it up? is there anything I can do to set my device to factory settings?
Thanks for the help guys! I appreciate it!

Well from the information available, you have
- hboot 1.54
- m7_ul
- PN0710000
- CID HTC__304
this would lead me to assume you have a 2.24.401.x based phone.
I would try to get one of the following Guru Reset ROM:
2.24.401.8 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/
2.24.401.1 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
flash one of them in recovery, then follow the rumrunner steps to try to achieve S-Off.
If that is successful, then you can downgrade back to stock, using this RUU (exe): http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
check your "fastboot getvar all" after that.
Once you've done all that you can use revone (or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477792) to remove "TAMPERED"
and also revone (or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475914) to get you're phone "LOCKED" if you so wish
Keep S-Off !!

Thanks for the help. I have downloaded the Rom you gave me the link for but I dunno how to flash it due to I lost access to the teamwin recovery mode and when I click recovery onto the bootloader it goes to a black screen with a caution simbol in red and I have to reboot it.
I have tried with the goomanager to flash that rom but it doesnt let me. Any advice in this regard? I can tell goomanager to find an open recovery script (openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7.img), should i do this? Or Im gonna end up with a bricked phone?
Thanks!

"black screen with a caution simbol in red" that's stock recovery, you need to flash back a custom recovery. download (if you dont have one) from the xda threads, then enter bootloader (shut off phone, hold POWER + VOLDOWN) enter FASTBOOT, connect to PC and it should change to FASTBOOT USB
then
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter RECOVERY
then "install ZIP" in Aroma, deselect "stock recovery" so you don't need to flash it again.

No problem, TWRP you mentioned should work just fine. It's the same as installing a custom ROM. I havent used TWRP but it should say something like "install zip", then find the zip and flash away.
Hopefully, that will give you a chance to successfully run rumrunner; remember to read and follow the instructions to the letter!
Good luck and keep us posted (fingers crossed)

Well I installed the custom recovery, then flashed the stock rom 2.24.401.8 as you told me. Once I did that I ran rumrunner successfully gainning S-off.
Now I have to run the RUU but the one you suggested me is the "RUU M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 Radio 4A.13.3231.27 10.31.1131.05 Release 310878" but my radio is 4A.17.3250.14_10.39.1150.04L. Should I try to install it anyways? I've taken a look at the rest of RUUs and none fits my features...
btw every time I flash the stock version at the end it tells me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i want to install supersu, i always say no and after that my recovery always goes to stock, i guess it is normal, isnt it?

Go ahead and flash it, it will downgrade everything (now possible thanks to S-Off), and you will then receive the latest OTA package(s) to get to the most current version including radio.

Hey! I have tried to lock it but after typing adb shell I get this "[email protected]:\ $" instead of the # that you are getting. I've tried to type "su" after that but it says that the command cannot be found. Also, when I type the code "echo -ne..." it says that I have permission denied so dunno what to do now...
Im asking in the lock/unlock threat but they just told me that its because im not rooted and that i have to install a recovery and install superuser in order to be able to introduce the code, dont really understand why I have to root it afer unrooted it :S

You should have LOCKED it before running the RUU, because that's what made you loose root.
So before proceeding, can you give me an update of your status:
bootloader: locked/relocked/unlocked?
tampered?
ROM?
"fastboot getvar all" (remove IMEI and s/n)

Basically, adb don't work on fastboot/bootloader.
adb works only on android or in recovery.
However, if your bootloader now is re-locked, you have only to get from htc dev another unlockcode.bin and flash it.
After you can mod your phone
Cant flash it!

[Q] HTC one semi bricked (M7)

Hi guys basically i messed up, I tried installing a ruu.zip rom via TWRP which got stuck.
I then hard reset the phone and now there is no OS.
I can boot into the bootloader and TWRP recovery (2.5.0.0)
I have tried to flash several roms via sideloading and OTG but they keep failing.
The phone was rooted and had a unlocked bootloader and was running 4.1.2 android stock.
As you can tell i'm quite the noob. any help would be appreciated.
Forgive me if im in the wrong thread etc

I know he's using the wrong TWRP.
but......... im thinking this is his RUU (based on his current rom version and his baseband version)
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_..._10-33-1150-01_release_311663_signed_2_4-exe/
But to be sure I need his cid at least.
doesn't seem to know what he's doing with custom rom's, so this will put him back to stock, at least he'll have a working phone. :good:

that is an M7_U ruu, and the OP is M7_UL... but right now RUU is irrelevant / a premature step
i can assume the OP is angry, frustrated, and panicking, so first priority would be to get his phone up and running, just to alleviate some of the tension... so let him flash a proper recovery for 4.4+ ROMs, then the installation will go fine, and then he's relaxed enough not to hit his phone with a hammer

It will install stock with root if you install an OTA you will have to reroot afterwards.
Obviously if you select no to stock recovery you'll stay with TWRP but OTA installs will fail.
One last thing if you ever thought about going s-off do it before you use any OTA updates.
With hboot 1.56 and stock Rom you can s-off with rumrunner for free. If you update to hboot 1.57 the only method is Sunshine and it costs $25 :good:

Obviously if you select no to stock recovery you'll stay with TWRP but OTA installs will fail.
One last thing if you ever thought about going s-off do it before you use any OTA updates.
With hboot 1.56 and stock Rom you can s-off with rumrunner for free. If you update to hboot 1.57 the only method is Sunshine and it costs $25 :good:

You need s-off to go back to 100% stock. What was the error rumrunner gave.
It may be some time before I reply, I'm about to sit down to a meal

About the stock recovery, it's normal for it to go to a black screen. After a while it should display an image of a phone with red exclimation. That's normal too.
At this point hold volume up and press the power button to see the recovery menu. Ignore the errors about mount sd card that's also normal

It's totally up to you it depends how you feel about it. If the device still has warranty you will need s-off should you ever want to claim on it. It's also the reason I pointed you to the Stock reset rom rather than the RUU. Because the latest available RUU for your device has a lower firmware version than currently on the device. So you need s-off to use it.
But if your not that bothered then just go ahead and keep the device s-on. It just means that if you update the device and then later need s-off for some reason your only way will be Sunshine which you have to pay for. So i preffer to make people aware of it. But its totally up to you :good:
