[SOLVED] Google'd and Google'd but still need help

Hi guys
I have looked and looked but need some help
I have a HTC One which I successfully converted to a "stock" GPE with no problems, but I have found that I miss some little bit HTC Zoe for example.I can detect the device with ADB and can use oem writecid to change to HTC__001 which I need to flash the RUU.zip
I have tried tool kits and adb but I am having no luck with the following.
Changing the MID so I can flash a stock RUU
Unlocking the RELOCKED bootloader
I have S-Off
Below is where I am at the moment.

With S-OFF you don't need an unlocked bootloader tu flash in ruu mode.
so change your CID to HTC__001:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then use this tool to change MID back to PN0710000
you must use this tool from custom recovery so if you are on stock recovery, yes you will have to unlock bootloader again and flash latest twrp recovery.Unlock Via htcdev or with s-off method, as you wish.
then follow nkk71's guide to return to stock (linked in my signature below). Follow post #1 and #3 (use ruu.zip method) with 1.28.401.7 ruu.zip from htc1guru.com

Thanks for your help

I used HTCDev to get unlock, I have kept the unlock.bin but it doesn't seem to work now.....is that because I have changed CID and MID? Do i need to go back to HTCDev and get another unlock
Thanks for the quick reply...exactly what i needed a clear concise way ahead rather than me stumbling around with frustration

@lspec230 just to be sure you see that I have edited my above post with additional info
if you have more questions, just ask here. I'll be back in a few hours but im sure others members will assist you here.

I went to HTCDev and got a new Unlock_code.bin with no trouble at all.
Used the following and all appears to push to the device but then nothing, I dont get the HTC Bootloader splash screen asking if i want to proceed.

Forget about the bootloader unlocking. Change MID/CID and flash a full RUU!

Also, are you rooted?

Still no luck
Not sure what's going on....I cant install TWRP on there to change the MID or Flash a stock RUU
I tried from ADB and for past experience from Samsung also copied it to the phone hoping I could flash from recovery, but there isn't an option for that.
Cant help but think the RELOCKED flag is causing the problems.
I will try a factory reset and cache/partition wipe and start again.
I suppose one option is to flash a RUU that will work with my current MID. Then start the process from there.....

1- Why oh why did you go S-On?? You don't need S-On for OTAs
2- Why dint you read this: "---------> Note: M7_UL .401. users don't use 1.20.401.1, use 1.28.401.7 instead"
Okay so now you're S-On, bootloader locked or unlocked?
bootloader has to be locked or relocked, then go ahead and flash the 1.28.401.7 ruu.zip, then get S-Off!
then stay UNLOCKED and S-Off and take all the OTAs you like then report back
any reason you need S-On??

okay, so slow it down a little, take a deep breath and no panicking or rushing things!!! okay?
Here's what you're going to do:
1- lock/relock bootloader
2- flash ruu.zip 1.28.401.7
3- DO NOT TAKE ANY OTAs
4- use revone, to get S-Off, and unlock your phone
Once that is done report back, if you have questions, please go ahead ask before doing things

PS: if ruu.zip fails, giving "signature fail" it's cause it's not signed and you are now S-ON.
in that case use RUU.EXE: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
no need to "downgrade hboot", just run the RUU.EXE, NOTHING ELSE and report back with a "fastboot getvar all"

i don't think a brick is involved, but i guess i need to do some revisions about the S-On part (when it's needed and when not ), but as someone mentioned, the guide is "cluttered" already :crying:

[Q] HTC One M7 RUU IMG Error

Hey guys,
I recently got S-Off on my device and downgraded my HBoot to 1.44 and changed to SuperCID 11111111
The RUU i downloaded is " Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_4.06.651.4_RUU"
The reason i need to go back to stock to see if i can get my Wifi and Bluetooth to start working again since it's stuck in "turning on mode" I have tried flashing new roms, radios, kernals, factory reset etc. No idea why Wifi and Bluetooth stopped working i just woke up one morning and it wouldn't turn on.
For some reason when flashing this RUUi keep on getting 158 IMG error? I have tried running as admin, and making sure phone is in Fastboot USB but still wont work.
Which RUU should i try, any help would be awesome as i would love to get my Wifi and Bluetooth working again, here are my phones details.

this ruu isn't for your phone at all !
You have a M7_UL (GSM) not a M7WLS (sprint CDMA) !!
What was your original CID?
Your main-ver is .401 so you probably need a .401 ruu

I was
I was under the impression that if i was S-OFF and had SuperCID that i could run any RUU.
I know there is no RUU for my device hence why i wanted to get S-OFF and SuperCID so i could try another RUU, so this is not possible?
I have the nandroid backup for my device but when i flashed it Wifi and Bluetooth would still not work. Looks like i might have to send it into the shop for repairs.

Not ANY ruu! Only RUU for M7_UL models. CID and MID must match the ruu (can be easily changed to match RUU with s-off)
M7WLS is a different phone and flashing things for the WLS variant on your UL variant WILL brick your phone.
BTW Never flash things to your phone ''under the impression'' it is ok, read carefully and ask questions

I thought i did read everything, which obviously i missed a few parts. Since the nandroid backup didn't work ill take defeat and accept my Wifi and Bluetooth is possibly a hardware issue. Can't send phone in for warrenty since its "Rooted" so hopefully i can find a good repair center around my part of town.

So finally got the RUU but still not Wifi and Bluetooth working. Hardware issue it is. Thanks a lot for the help in getting this to work bud

So confused - OTA Updates & Rooted/Modified M7 - please help!

Hi all,
My girlfriend has a HTC One M7, currentley Rooted with an Unlocked bootloader, Bulletproof Kernel, CWM Recovery, S-On (can't get S-OFF no matter what I try) and running the stock 4.4.2 Sense ROM that came with the phone.
She wants to install an OTA update, obviously this won't work with the phone in it's current state. I've got experience with all of this with my Note II, but the M7 is just a whole different can of worms.
What I've tried:
Getting S-OFF (no luck whatsoever with any tools)
Flashing stock recovery and kernel
Flashing stock recovery and kernel and applying the OTA manually via recovery
I've read everything on here and nothing seems to go in. She just wants to be able to install OTA updates, even if it means unrooting her phone permanently as this will happen each time there is an OTA update.
Someone, please guide me in the right direction! Step by step maybe?
Keep in mind there is no way I can't get S-OFF.
Huge thanks to anyone that can help. I'd be eternally in your debt!!

My girlfriend has a HTC One M7, currentley Rooted with an Unlocked bootloader, Bulletproof Kernel, CWM Recovery, S-On (can't get S-OFF no matter what I try) and running the stock 4.4.2 Sense ROM that came with the phone.
She wants to install an OTA update, obviously this won't work with the phone in it's current state. I've got experience with all of this with my Note II, but the M7 is just a whole different can of worms.

I suppose the phone is trying to apply to ota update and then show a red triangle with an exclamation mark inside?
What I've tried:
Getting S-OFF (no luck whatsoever with any tools) Any error message when trying to S-OFF? You must use the correct tool for your hboot version (probably firewater) + combination of the correct rom + kernel
Flashing stock recovery and kernel --> You must have stock recovery for ota, ota will not install using a custom one.
Flashing stock recovery and kernel and applying the OTA manually via recovery --> appyling the ota manually from stock recovery require s-off

I've read everything on here and nothing seems to go in. She just wants to be able to install OTA updates, even if it means unrooting her phone permanently as this will happen each time there is an OTA update

Interesting. I don't have the phone with me at the moment and it's late but I'll try to do the POWERUP + VOL tomorrow at some point, I'll get her to try stock recovery + kernel then do it and see what it's stopping at.

Didn't get that message, just keeps going indefinetley or stops, and doesn't S-OFF. Tried Firewater, Revone, RumRunner, if there is another then I've almost certainly tried it, followed all the guides including the one that flashed Android Revolution...no idea..

your version-main? (rom version) Go in settings --> About --> Software info --> Rom version
maybe there is a ruu you could use to restore the phone(4.19.401.9), if it match your version
---------- Post added at 04:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------
you can also flash the stock 5.11.401.10 rom, recovery and firmware available on ARHD website

forget the ruu, your phone version is higher than the ruu. flashing a ruu (4.11.401.10) with a lower version than on your phone(4.11.401.11) require s-off.

No, this is the latest stock rom(5.11.401.10) for your phone model (MID: PN0710000 and CID:HTC__001) including android 4.4.2 and sense 6.0
You can flash this stock odexed rom(5.11.401.10) from custom recovery, then flash the stock recovery(5.11.401.10) over the custom one and your phone will be stock and ready to take future ota update. You may also want to update firmware to 5.11.401.10

So after flashing that rom and stock recovery, ota would be ready to roll? Would the kernel matter?
What's the purpose / Difference of firmware and how is it updated? On my note II it was just choose a rom choose a kernel and off you go. This is so much more involved

stock kernel in included in the rom (boot.img) so if you don't flash any other kernel it should be fine.

firmware is all the low level code required for your phone hardware to works with the software (OS)
when speaking about HTC phone, firmware.zip include HBOOT(bootloader), BOOT(kernel), Recovery, Radio and some other stuff. if you want your phone to be 100% stock you need both stock rom + stock firmware to match the same version i.e 5.11.501.10
normally, the firmware is updated at the same time the rom version is updated (from an ota update) If you flash a rom, the rom will be updated but not the firmware.
Updating the firmware manually can be dangerous is you don't know what you are doing and flashing the wrong file. You can update firmware using this command from bootloader (with the correct firmware.zip package in the same folder you have adb and fastboot):
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
also it looks like flashing a 5.x.xxx.x firmware over a 3.x.xxx.x firmware will brick your phone. from what i see, your phone should be on a 4.x.401.x version at the moment, so it theory it should be fine.

Fails on:
>>>setting permissions
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /data/media/0/one_5.11.401.10_odexed.zip
(status 7)
Tried 3 different versions of cwm. Bad rom download?
Thinking about it I just re read your above post, could it be because the firmware isn't matched? I read your 'it should be fine' as 'dont update the firmware' not 'its fine to update' which I think is what you meant...
Firmware is 4.19.401.11 however the rom is 5.11.401.10. Can't believe I overlooked this, guess firmware needs to be 5.11.401.10 for the rom to take?

[Q] Return to stock again, Q hboot

Hi,
So returning to stock again and Im planning on doing the following
Install the following zip as per video instructions on website.
Select option to include root
Then install this version of SuperSU >
Follow this guide to set the bootloader to LOCKED
Removed root from within SuperSu settings

will the version-main and baseband also be downgraded when I use the Guru_Reset_M7_2.24.161.1.zip file ?

No the version main won't be downgraded with the guru reset file, that file is pretty much rom only, you need the firmware.zip file to do that, you also need it to downgrade your hboot, or an ruu, I've had a look and there is no ruu for Vodafone, however, there is some earlier ota's. You could try downloading those and pull firmware.zip from them, then manually flash that, firmware zip contains things like stock recovery, radio, hboot, partition layouts etc, try and get one which matches the number on the guru reset file, ie search for 2.24.161.xx firmware, flash that first, you will then need to put a custom recovery back on to run the guru reset file, during the installation, select wipe data, install stock recovery and install stock radio, once it's all done and booted at least once, only then lock your bootloader and s-on, be careful when going back s-on though, it's been known for the tampered flag to return, personally I would send it back s-off, high chance they wouldn't even notice.
Just one question, why do you want to root ?, if your returning to stock for warranty then skip that part completely, you won't need root.
You may be able to pull firmware.zip from this ota http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/10/vodafone-ota-2-24-161-1-added/

Nah you don't, on the guru reset site, there is a bootloader reset tool which you just run from custom recovery.

Yu can't do that, the 4xxxxx firmware will contain too high a hboot for the otas to work, although the guru reset file will install, the otas will lead to a bootloop due to you already having a higher hboot

[Q] In Deep Trouble with MID Change. HELP PLEASE!!!

I tried changing my HTC One M8_WHL PVT SHIP S-OFF into developer edition using the guide on http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...edition-for-super-fast-sense-updates-0156524/ . I successfully changed the MID and the CID without breaking a sweat. After, I used TWRP to restore the backup which the guide instructed me to download and restore. After restoring that backup, device could only boot HBOOT. Now I tried running the RUU.exe for Developer Edition and I get the error which asks that I run the correct RUU for the device. Now, the device doesn't boot pass HBOOT
What I can do ...
1. Boot into TWRP recovery
2. Give fastboot commands with HBOOT
3. Boot into RUU via fastboot
What I can't do ...
1. Boot the device
2. Revert the MID change to its original state cos I will need to run ADB Shell to do that, which cannot be done from HBOOT
3. No RUU.exe is responding to flashing the device
The specific help I need ...
1. Be able to Change MID using Fastboot so I can run a SPRINT RUU

Have you tried running the command to change the MID while booted to twrp?

As I have been using my GSM SIM in it, it didn't occur to me that it could be any different from a GSM Model. When I bought it, it came with S-Off and CID 11111111, though the bootloader was locked (like any other locked HBOOT from factory, not relocked).

is Sprint which is CDMA not GSM.
You said in your first post you could not revert your MID because you can't run adb shell... adb works in recovery...it's worth a shot.

Try changing your CID to SuperCID then try the Sprint RUU.

ADB Shell won't start in TWRP sideload. But ADB devices comes out positively with the list of devices attached.

Have you tried changing it back to Sprint CID?

I haven't. The device came with Super CID. Let me try that and see. However, I tried flashing the firmware of Sprint via RUU with Super CID. The MID error showed up. I feel same will happen even if I change to Sprint CID, but I'll give it a shot.
