[q] no os in htc one

Hi ,
i have a HTC ONE mobile phone, few days before i tried to install cyangonMod but unfortunately due to faulty USB my installation broke up.
so i ended up with no OS installed on my HTC ONE. later i searched out the forum and rooted back to the ROM as it was.
i founded links for the RUU zip files to install but since my phone is not linked with any operator, i have no clue which link to use.
my friend suggested me a link which was
RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_4A.13.3227.06_10.27.1127.01_release_308001_signed_2_4
when i try to install the zip using the following commands
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_4A.13.3227.06_10.27.1127.01_release_308001_signed_2_4.zip
i received following error

writing 'zip'...
(bootloader) signature checking
FAILED (remote: 12 signature ve
finished. total time: 133.252s
I have been trying all different ways but so far no solution.

You need this RUU, and because its a downgrade, you will need to s-off first and then flash hboot 1.44. After your phone will be back to stock 1.28.401.7 and you will receive ota to latest version. Follow this procedure and don't forget to thanks the OP for his awesome guide :good:.
The other option if you don't want/can't s-off is to use this rom (guru reset). this is the stock rom for your version, and you will be able to update ota after. Instructions for guru reset can be found here

Still not working

The first solution didnt work cause since i have no OS in my HTC so adb functions are not working, since adb functions are not working so i cant do an s-off
The second solution: i dont know how to get the zip file inside my phone cause i cant execute adb sideload, is there anyother way to trasfer the file to the phone or is there any other way of executing it guru reset.

Boot your phone in TWRP recovery, dont select any option, just let the phone boot in twrp main menu
then:
Code:
adb push name_of_guru_reset_file.zip /sdcard/
then in twrp select install, chose the .zip and follow instruction in aroma installer.

Problems with updates to 4.4.3 - stock

Hi all.
I have a problem with updating my HTC One
The thing is:
A year ago I've rooted my phone, it was S-ON.
A couple days ago i wanted to return to STOCK.
I've relocked my bootloader (now it says Temperd , Relocked), put stock recovery and installed Stock ROM (4.4.2, software number: 5.11.401.10).
Today I got update to Android 4.4.3, witch I've downloaded. But when i click on Install, it reboots into recovery and starts to update.
But after a couple of seconds it stops and on diplay apears red triangle with exclamation point!
And the update is not installed...
Any help or links would do great!!
THANKS
:highfive:

post a fastbot getvar all except imei and serialno
this error is caused because your phone is not stock either some missing files or some modified files in /system or /data/preload
redo the ota installation and when in stock recovery, press volume up then power and release both, you will see the ota installation progress and which file is missing/modified

The firmware version (2.24.401.1) doesn't match your software version (5.11.401)
re-unlock your bootloader, flash twrp recovery, flash this rom: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
when flashing the rom, select stock recovery, stock radio, wipe, and don't select root, then you'll be fine taking ota updates.

I have downloaded the ROM, unlocked bootloader...

If I could install recovery, the instalation of ROM would be easy...

not fastboot boot recovery! this command will freeze your bootloader
reboot your phone in bootloader again
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
use 2.6.3.3

Cant downgrade from gpe / 5.01

Hi, Hope this post is in the right place, apologies if not.
I recently got a HTC One (M7) which was already unlocked, S-OFF and rooted and had 4.4 on it but i wanted to upgrade that OS so installed GPE and then it updated a few times to 5.01 which was all good but now i want to go back to 4.4 and this is the problem i'm having.
I'm in the UK using a O2 UK RUU file which i know does work but now when i go to use it i get as far as 'Checking Header' (5%) and thats it ..it wont go any further? I have tried in compatibility mode but that just returns errors.. I am using Fastboot & ADB tools and tried pushing the firmware but i'm really quite a novice when it comes t stuff like this ..
I tried fastboot getvar and all i get it a list of commands now which i dont understand
I do know my CID is 111111
Here's the Bootloader Info:
*** UNLOCKED***
M7 UL PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID 11111111
HBOOT 1.54.0000
RADIO 4T.30.3218.21
OPEN DSP v34.120.274.0429
OS 5.11. 1700 .3
All i want to do it flash the phone back to original Stock with OS 4.4 ..
also, when i try to go into recovery it wont let me, i get the green android laying on his back with a red exclamation on him and pressing up with power dont take me into recovery.
Any idea's please?
I would like to thank xda and it's members for all the help previously.. thanks guys

Flash the firmware that matches your RUU first
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then flash the RUU ... RUU gets stuck on the Hboot update step, flashing firmware first eliminates this problem

Hi and thank you for your help.. i tried looking for the correct firmware.zip but after trying to flash it i get errors and 'fails' i'm not exactly sure which firmware i should be using - i did go to HTC site and selected what i thought were O2 UK FW files (1 was MR 3, 1 MR2 and 2 x zip files) so i assumed the .zip files were the FW files but its with these i got the errors. When i flashed them it did read them but aftr a few seconds returned a fail.
The RUU i am trying to put back on is RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_O2_UK_4.20.206.16_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353143_signed_2 which i know works on my device as i used it before i installed the GPE.
Any ideas please? I'm sorry i cant provide any more information.

Well you phone is having a bit of an identity crises
you have hboot 1.54 ( assume it's the Dark bootloader for GPE)
your Firmware version is 6.x.401.x which is for the International version
and your CID is O2
I'm going to recommend you convert to International by changing you CID
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
then flash this firmware
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407574077
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot
followed by this RUU
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe
or
RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_HTC_Europe_4.19.401.9_R_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe - 1.50 GB

Maybe a little late but you could also try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
Go to post #2 and follow those instructions. Then flash whatever RUU you want.
I converted to GPE one time, didn't like it and also had trouble getting back to KK.

Thanks again for the help.. much appreciated - im using TWRP v2.7 and wiped the whole phone by accident - i'm trying to push (adb sideload fw_4.19.401.9_custom.zip) but keeps coming back as no device - i have a yellow exclamation in device manager under 'other devices' 'one' and cant seem to find a windows 7 driver for this? once i can push or sideload the firmware i can flash it correct?
Thanks again

So to refresh my memory, you were on stock GPE and want to go back to stock sense correct? Now you have wiped the phone using twrp and twrp is all that is left?

i really dont know what to do now - i have all the correct files in the platform tools folder where i run the fastboot & adb commands (firmware & ruu) and have changed the CID to HTC___001
When i'm in recovery mode (TWRP) i get the yellow exclamation (screenshot hopefully attached)

First you need to get the driver working. Click on "one" and see if you can select from a list of devices on the pc. Now if the last working firmware on the phone was gpe then you need to push/sideload a gpe based Rom. This is because the partition structure is different than sense. You need to get a working Rom onto the phone first.

Help Me Please ASAP VERY VERY IMPORTANT!!!!

Hi, im a complete newbie and recently decided to change the ROM on my HTC One M8 Sprint (Unlocked, Rooted, S-ON) phone. This phone was rooted and had ViperOne M8 1.8 Installed in it when I acquired it. Few days ago, following some threads I made a Titanium Backup, a Nandroid backup (Uncompressed) and then tried installing CM12 in the phone. It showed an error saying bootloader 3.18/3.19 is needed and I have 3.16. I then tried to restore my Nandroid. It shows success but then gets stuck in a bootloop. It is now soft-bricked, and I cannot get any ROM to work. I tried installing ViperOne 2.0, it shows success but doesn't boot. CM12 is also showing the same error and ViperOne is not working. I really need to get this fixed ASAP please help!!!! I dont know how to update the android also!!!!
HTC One M8
Harmon/Kardon Edition
Sprint
Android 4.4
Unlocked, Rooted
TWRP v2.7.0.2
Btw, I had a custom boot animation that I had flashed, and it still plays. Just FYI.
I wanted to install a ROM with android 5.0.x and keep my phone up to date and was frankly bored with the old interface!

Try updating your twrp

I really dont know how to do that. I am a newbie!

M7 Sprint m7_wls - firmware/update issue

I'm having some issues with getting the firmware updated on my m7 and hoping someone can help.
I had posted some info in another thread of mine, but the thread is now over a year old so I figured I would start a new one.
First, here is my get-var output
C:\DroidTools>fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.44.0000

getvar:all FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.094s
Not sure why the get-var didn't finish out (Too many links) ?
Anyways I tried updating the firmware with the latest I could find for the sprint variant, but I received this error.
"Target didn't report max-download-size"
sending 'zip' (45578 KB)...
OKAY [2.807s]
writing 'zip' . . .
(bootloader) zip header checking . . .
(bootloader) zip info parsing . . .
FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail)
finished. total tim: 3.067s
I've tried a few different versions of firmware as well and still no luck.
I can just fastboot reboot bootloader and then reboot after that and I'm back to my normal stuff with no issues though.
I was also able to flash a newer twrp recovery without any hiccups.. so not sure what is up.
I am currently running AICP 12.1 but I am getting allot of crashes on random thing, and I suspect my mega-old firmware may be contributing. I also tried the last CyanogenMod that was available (13...?) but I couldn't get data and calls to work.
I also attempted to re-lock the boot-loader and tried flashing the firmware that way, but I received a different error.
"remote 12 signature verify fail"
After that I had to scramble and remember how to unlock the boot-loader again just to get my phone to boot back up lol. I haven't had my unlock file in years so that was fun.
So I'm stuck at 1.44.0000 for now. I'm starting to wonder if i have to find an older firmware first before I can jump to a newer one?
Also slightly confused on the RUU. I am already running custom recovery and custom ROM. Is updating the RUU still necessary?
All feedback and help is welcomed.
Thanks

The firmware.zip you are trying to flash (the one linked in the other thread) isn't signed so your phone must be s-off. Sorry I should have mentioned that earlier but didn't noticed yours was s-on.

Its actually s-off now, showing "shipped s-on"?
Not sure what that means but the bootloader is definitely unlocked.

bootloader unlocked doesn't mean s-off. If your phone is s-off you should see "PVT SHIP S-OFF" and "Security: OFF" in your fastboot getvar all output
On a S-ON phone you can only flash signed firmware.zip and it must be done with a locked (or re-locked) bootloader
On a S-OFF phone you can flash signed or unsigned firmware.zip and the bootloader status doesn't matters (can be locked, re-locked or unlocked).
The sprint firmware linked in the other thread, the one that you are trying to flash is an unsigned zip so you need s-off first. Otherwise you can try to update the whole phone using the latest sprint RUU from htc's website, not sure it will work on hboot 1.44. Backup important files before trying, the ruu will wipe and update your rom and firmware. Btw you also need to be locked/re-locked to flash a ruu if your phone is s-on.

You can flash it back to stock rom using a RUU.
The latest version is here: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...691.655435036.1511537283-936972463.1506975706
Launch the .exe file with the phone in bootloader mode and showing "fastboot usb" in red
If you are not using a Windows PC you can find the .zip version of the same RUU here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24588232905725176
You can flash it using fastboot in ruu mode:
Code:
htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip PN071IMG_M7WLS_L50_SENSE60_SPRINT_6.23.651.10_signed.zip
htc_fastboot reboot
If you prefer to flash a custom rom instead of stock, just make sure to choose one compatible with the Sprint variant (M7WLS). Push it to your phone memory and flash it using the "install" menu from twrp.
If the phone was sim-unlocked (working on other network than Sprint) you might have to sim-unlock again after flashing a RUU.

Thanks I actually already managed to fix it using this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795856
I used the full firmware but had to install this redistributable file for RUU to work (Windows 10) after locking bootloader:
https://npackd.appspot.com/p/com.microsoft.VisualCPPRedistributable/9.0.21022.8
I'll have to search for sim unlock, crap

Thanks for the info. I'm going to try this sometime this week hopefully.
I've been running AICP 7.1.1 for nearly 3 weeks so far with minor hiccups now and then so i'm slightly hesitant to screw something up again :-/
I will update this as soon as I try a signed RUU from HTC.
Will a signed RUU destroy my recovery as well?
Also do I need to unlock after I flash the RUU?
Steps would be
1. relock bootloader
2. Install signed RUU
3. Relock Bootloader
4. Install TWRP
5. Install Rom
6. ?
Assuming I have these correct and everything works that is.

Stock recovery will overwrite twrp when flashing a RUU, not really a concern since it will take only a few minutes to reflash twrp. And yes you'll need to re-unlock the bootloader after flashing the ruu, before you can install twrp back to your recovery partition. Steps 1 to 5 above are correct.
