Simply flash a stock RUU which matches the CID or just use fastboot oem writecid 11111111 to be able to flash any RUU.

if you have S-Off download any RUU and open the .EXE file on your Windows PC, then follow the instruction

Can i execute a ruu of a lower version? And can i do that with 1.54 hboot? When i try with HTC__001 cid the setup wizard give me error this is the ruu i want to flash. RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13.3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed
Its the correct One?

I've tried with super cid but the result was the same... Any advice?

Try this.
1. Run the RUU and click next but no further
2. Go to your user folder ie C:\Users\Nameofuser\AppData\Local\Temp
3. Search for rom.zip and then copy it to another location on your PC
4. Stop the RUU
5. Reboot your phone into the bootloader
6. Go into fastboot
7. fastboot oem rebootRUU
8. fastboot flash zip rom.zip (will fail the first time)
9. fastboot flash zip rom.zip (should now work)

Did you literally flash everything to get the GE edition as per another thread on the conversion and also did you flash the 4.3 GE hboot?

I flash the zip of the rooted GE 4.3 the same way you told me to do before.
I follow this guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781

Probably a good idea to remove your IMEI and SERIAL number from your post but anyway...
Try just flashing the stock rom from this thread using CWM or TWRP and then flash the stock recovery back after.

[Q] How htc-dev ruu and zip files work?

Hi guys! I have a question...
I was thinking about using a RUU to clean install a stock rom on my one...so, I was at htc-dev site and looked at downloads...
I find: the developer edition RUU, android 4.3 (the last one)...ok, this is the classic RUU, I have to execute it when I'm on "fastboot oem rebootRUU", I'm s-off, it wipes everything and I have the stock firmware and rom...and it's ok...have I got to relock the bootloader?
then....I see, just below, a zip file, as big as the RUU one, but is a zip...what is this? is the zip that the RUU flashes, but for a different use, with the raw method, on the terminal?
and, another one...I looked at the google play edition section...and I founded two zips for each version: one "stock ui" and one "framework support files"....ok, what is this?! isn't there a RUU? what if I want to flash a clean google play edition, with full wipe and stock clean firmware? what can I do with these files?
thank you for listening, and sorry for my bad english

You must have s-off and super cid "11111111" to flash ruu that are not specific to your phone. You do not have to lock your bootloader. Again, you MUST have s-off and super cid! As long as you have those, you can pretty much convert your phone to whichever you want. I always recommend downgrading your hboot to 1.44 before doing this. You need encrypted ruu's to use the "fastboot oem rebootRUU" mode. Remember to flash stock recovery if you want OTA updates. I have never used the .exe files. I converted my att htc one to google edition, then back, then developer, then back. Its really no different than just running roms, but at least you get a new splash screen and bootloader with each.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781 This is the google edition conversion link I used my first time converting my phone. if you look at post 2, it shows how to go back to stock "or pretty much any ruu"

What do you mean 'work'? They are used to put the phone back to a factory state, a hard reset if you will. It means you can always revert back to stock should you want/need to send it in for repair
As for GPe files, they are not for flashing and are source files to make your own software

OK that's the answer! GPE files are the source? same for the zip file next the ruu?

No, the RUU and the 1GB ZIP are the same thing but flashed in different ways...
The RUU is your normal, executable program and does everything for you. The ZIP is an RUU but you have to set the phone up to flash it by using fastboot commands. the process is:
1. Connect phone in fastboot mode
2. Run the command 'fastboot oem rebootRUU'
3. Once the phone is at the HTC screen, you run the command 'fastboot flash zip name_of_zip.zip'
4. It will flash the first part and then give an error and you run the same command as above a second time straight away
5. Once the second flash sequence has finished, you the type 'fastboot reboot' and it will reboot the phone and finish the installation

Basic Steps but...
Not worked for me, i downloaded right htcdev rom for my desire c
Waiting for device... is appeared and no way out.
Any Ideas??

There are no more RUU on htcdev.com, these files are kernel source code and not useful to restore your phone. Can you post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (hide your IMEI and serialno), I'll check if I can find something for you.

no, your phone is S-ON and branded to vodafone UK so you can only use RUU for vodafone UK (x.xx.161.x).
1.51.401.1 is for HTC Europe WWE not vodafone.

[SOLVED - thx nkk71 !] Wiped everything & S-ON - Please help :(

Hi everybody,
I already checked a lot of threads in xda but it didn't solve my problem so I do it by myself...
Just got a HTC One and when I wanted to install the Google Edition ROM by bigxie with mini SDK, ADB and TWRP... I just messed up:
- OK to unlock bootloader
- S-OFF didn't work
- I accidentaly wiped everything: the OS...
I tried push a ROM with adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip but it didn't help:
- S-ON didn't allow me to install custom ROMs
- I couldn't turn my phone S-OFF because my PC didn't recognise it anymore + have no OS
- adb devices command didn't see my phone
Then I tried to relock it to install an official RUU from HTC but:
"(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)"
I guess it comes from my HBOOT-1.54, I red we have to be in 1.44 but one more time I can't downgrade my HBOOT because I'm not S-OFF.
Now my HTC One M7_UL is :
* TAMPERED *
* RELOCKED *
*** Security Warning ***
- S-ON
- HBOOT-1.54.0000
Checkmate ?
Thanks in advance...

can you unlock your phone using HTCdev? get a new token and try.

another missing version-main , this is really getting weird.
are you still looking to go s-off? if so you're on hboot 1.54, which means a 2.24.xxx.? ROM, so download and try rumrunner with this

version-main is the firmware version of the phone, just seems it's disappearing a lot last couple of days.
hboot 1.54 has firmware 2.24.xxx.x, so one of the roms I linked will hopefully get you s-off using rumrunner

Ok.
So I need to push and flash the ROM on TRWP, boot on it and a screen will appear with "WIPE" then "ROOT" and unselect stock recovery ?
Thanks.
NB: When I try to do a Factory Reset in TRWP, it fails with an "Unable to mount cache" error message.
NB1: Can't flash the ROM you gave me. Since I did an "Format Data" wich removes datas & encryption on internal storage, I can't flash anything...
NB2: OK I can't mount /data, /sdcard either...

say what?
unable to mount cache is OK, probably because of the fastboot erase cache
if push dosn't work , sideload it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317986

It's ok, I found an issue by formatting /data in CWM (I deleted TWRP)
The .8 ROM is installed but the fingertouch screen wasn't usable during the installation, I don't know if it means that's not a good version ?

Damn man you made my day, the ROM is installed and I can use my HTC again !
Is it the official RUU ?
But unfortunately it's still S-ON.
Thanks a lot

touchscreen wasnt working because you probably used 6.0.3.1, get the latest from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863 (though that one takes VERY long to backup/restore nandroids), so either get 6.0.3.2 or TWRP if you do nandroids frequently.
It's getting late for me, so have to sign off in a bit, and now that your phone is up and running, we can pick this up tomorrow....
you can try rumrunner now to get yourself s-off.
I'll check back tomorrow....
You can still hit the thanks button on my posts if i helped

I red I didn't need to get myself S-OFF to install a Custom Rom, is it true ?
I'm trying to get the Google Edition ROM again... Without success.
I flash boot.img in fastboot (& make clear cache) + flash the ROM normally (wipe cache + dalvik cache) via TWRP but my device enter in a boot loop when I reboot after installation (I just see the Google language selection, just to make me more frustrated lol...). Same with CyanogenMod.
Root Checker says "Congratulations ! This device has root access" and I unlocked the bootloader so I don't understand...
Maybe because of the CID of my phone is from Orange Poland (ORANGB10) ? I maybe should get S-OFF & Debrand ?
Thanks for your answer.

Definitely do s-off if you can. It may save you if things go south..

However you need unlocked bootloader + custom recovery to install custom ROMs. Not S-off.

I finally got S-OFF and achieved to install the stock Google Edition 4.4 ROM with this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
I had to SuperCID (fastboot eom writecid 11111111) because changing the android-info.txt didn't work.
Could you tell me in which case is it useful to flash stock recovery (he says it's for future OTA's) ?
Does it mean I could do updates via Software Update in Android the menu ?
NB: In the best case, I would like to get the updates via Android interface and have the most "official" Google Edition ROM (I don't want to change it, sooner or later).

I wouldn't , but that's your choice :laugh:
Anyway, I didn't read the thread you linked, but to get OTAs, you need "odexed stock rom", and "stock recovery" for OTAs to work properly,
you also need to change your CID (and possibly MID) to GPe
I think GPE CID is "GOOGL001" and MID is "PN0712000" (I THINK)
So if you're stock rom + stock recovery + correct CID & MID, you'll receive future OTAs just fine,
remember to keep S-Off.
if all good, would you mind editing the main thread title to include [SOLVED]. thanks

"get that little Android green toy down with a red triangle" -> yep, that's stock recovery :good::good:
if you simultaneously and briefly press POWER + VOLUP + VOLDOWN, you'll get to the stock recovery menu (really tiny font). you'll have to try a couple of times to get the timing correctly.

[Q] How to go from HBOOT 1.57 to HBOOT 1.44 in order to install Stock RUU

I have an AT&T HTC One (m7). I would like to ultimately get this back to HTC's stock version with the ability to receive OTA updates and behave just like it would if it were never modified. Several guides, post, and pages say that the only way I can successfully use an AT&T RUU file is accomplishing S-OFF since they will all contain older firmware (HBOOTS) than my current 1.57 version (I've seen some who LOCK the bootloader after achieve S-OFF and others who don't). If anyone can definitively tell me if it matters rather bootloader is still locked after achieve S-OFF, that would be appreciated.
XDA and HTC Guru indicate to successfully run an RUU I need to downgrade my HBOOT from 1.57 to HBOOT 1.44. While downgrading, can I go from 1.57 and directly install a 1.44 firmware or do I have to step down one at a time 1.57-->1.54-->1.x -> 1.44? Also, if anyone has a collection of firmware I can use to do this, that would be awesome too.
The RUU i'm trying to ultimately put on my phone is RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_Cingular_US_1.26.502.15_Radio_4A.17.3250.20_10.40.1150.04_release_326691_signed_2 from AndroidRUU (new , so can't embed the link)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2485651 here is a list of firmware
You can downgrade your hboot and then run the RUU. Make sure it's a stock hboot and NOT a modified one (it'll say either or). You can open the firmeware zips (not extract) and open and edit the android.info text file and add in your CID and model id as required if necessary
You can then flash the RUU as normal after. No need to step down hboots

Since you are S-OFF, you don't have to go all the way back to JB, you can flash this 4.18.502.7 decrypted ROM. and the instructions are from clsA:
Copy your downloaded file to your fastboot / adb folder
Rename the file Rom.zip
open a command prompt in the same folder (shift + right click - command prompt here )
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
wait for the Silver HTC logo
fastboot flash zip Rom.zip
the first time you issue a command to flash firmware/ruu in fastboot it only prepares the flash. You have to issue the exact command again:
fastboot flash zip Rom.zip
most times the green status bar does not reach the 100% mark. So when the output in the command window is complete, you can reboot:
fastboot reboot

This should put you back at stock. You do not need to lock your bootloader since you are S-OFF.

@majmoz I tried to flash the ROM you pointed me to, but it failed. It just said error updating <ROM Name> Updating partition details...
I am still on HBOOT 1.57, if I understood your previous comment, running this ROM would not require me to update the firmware first. Did I mis-understand that?

[Q] Choosing RUU and returning to stock

Hello Everyone,
I have read multiple guides from here and want to emphasize what a great community this place seems to be!
I am a proud owner of an HTC One M7 with Miui installed.
I have CWM Recovery installed and am S-ON.
I have the tint problem of the camera and intend to bring it to the seller for a repair. This requires me to go back to the stock HTC Sense ROM.

I don't know how to choose the correct RUU. The only thing which comes close to what I have in terms of software version is this:
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
Should I use it?
Also, most of the guides start with the assumption that your phone is S-OFF (not really sure what that means exactly, but that's a different conversation).
Does that mean I can skip the steps for getting it back to S-ON from those guides and continue onward or I should get it first to S-OFF, do whatever needs to be done and then get it back to S-ON and continue with the RUU?
Thanks a lot, guys!

That RUU will work for you, but it won't do any good for reinstating your warranty. You need to be s-off to return to 100% stock.
As you will need to set the bootloader back to ***LOCKED*** which requires s-off. With s-on the best you will get is ***RELOCKED*** and that's a sure sign the device was tampered with.

Thanks for your replies.
So how do I go about getting a newer RUU?
I am currently trying to get S-OFF with rumrunner... hopefully it will work.
If I get it to be S-OFF, what should I do from that point on?

If you use that ruu you won't be able to get s-off, there is no working method to s-off hboot 1.60. You'd be better off finding a stock Rom to flash and get s-off with rumrunner. Once you update past hboot 1.57 you will have to pay $25 for sunshine to s-off and as I mentioned if you go to hboot 1.60 you will ha e to wait for a new exploit that will work with that version. No doubt that will also be an updated version of Sunshine

What's wrong with paying for S-OFF? Gotta show the Devs some love

So the current option is to find a stock 401.11 ROM?
Any ideas where to look for one?
I have found the original/stock OTA zip file for the 401.11 update from an article by Android Revolution HD.
Also the 401.11 stock firmware zip from the android revolution collection.
(sorry, I'm too new of a user and can't post the actual links but they can be found by googling "4.19.401.11 ruu" and seeing the android revolution blogspot article)
Am I correct in thinking that I should do the following:
1. Flash with this firmware (since it is the stock one).
2. Install the OTA zip with fastboot (I think there is a tutorial on how to do this). Will this work the same as installing a RUU?
3. Run rumrunner while still on hboot 1.56
4. Go to S-OFF
5. Return everything to stock
6. Apply latest OTA (lolipop etc.)
7. Pay the price if I want to have S-OFF later.

No RUU, flash this inside TWRP recovery just like you would with a custom rom, only this will make your phone stock.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358545524
you cant manually flash OTA's whilst s-on, also you shouldnt need to flash firmware that you are already on.

get s-off as long as you can, do not accept any updates.
after s-off you will need to flash HBOOT 1.44 and a very early RUU, then get rid of the flags and s-on before updating.
removing the flags and then going s-on with anything higher than HBOOT 1.54 and the flags come back on the next reboot.

Important Thanks

Got the following with rumrunner:
ERROR: looks like device is not rooted AND lacks an unsecure kernel. su or FU!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
However I can do "adb shell" and then "su" brings me to be a super user.
What is different to what the situation was when I was with MIUI is that now when I type "adb shell" I am not automatically root (don't have # but $ at the console). When I do "su", the $ changes to #, which basically means that I am root.
I guess rumrunner has a requirement that you are root by default when logging via adb shell.
Any idea on a fix?

There's nothing wrong with paying for s-off. I have purchased Sunshine myself when necessary, and made regular donations to other devs. but it's only fair to inform people of there options before you land them with a $25 solution not everyone has money to spare for that sort of thing. :good:

So the current option is to find a stock 401.11 ROM?
Any ideas where to look for one?
I have found the original/stock OTA zip file for the 401.11 update from an article by Android Revolution HD.
Also the 401.11 stock firmware zip from the android revolution collection.
(sorry, I'm too new of a user and can't post the actual links but they can be found by googling "4.19.401.11 ruu" and seeing the android revolution blogspot article)
Am I correct in thinking that I should do the following:
1. Flash with this firmware (since it is the stock one).
2. Install the OTA zip with fastboot (I think there is a tutorial on how to do this). Will this work the same as installing a RUU?
3. Run rumrunner while still on hboot 1.56
4. Go to S-OFF
5. Return everything to stock
6. Apply latest OTA (lolipop etc.)
7. Pay the price if I want to have S-OFF later.
Best,
Wisher

You should try rumrunner with the Rom @Seanie280672 posted to gain s-off. Not guaranteed to work as HTC started patching firmware at this point but if you need 100% stock it's your best chance to s-off without Sunshine.
If rumrunner won't work Sunshine is still cheaper than paying for the repair, and when you get your device back you can use Sunshine again for free, as long as it is the same device and not a replacement :good:

No RUU, flash this inside TWRP recovery just like you would with a custom rom, only this will make your phone stock.

you cant manually flash OTA's whilst s-on, also you shouldnt need to flash firmware that you are already on.

Got the following with rumrunner:
However I can do "adb shell" and then "su" brings me to be a super user.
What is different to what the situation was when I was with MIUI is that now when I type "adb shell" I am not automatically root (don't have # but $ at the console). When I do "su", the $ changes to #, which basically means that I am root.
I guess rumrunner has a requirement that you are root by default when logging via adb shell.
Any idea on a fix?

Did you select the option to install root when you flashed the rom?

Thanks for the info.
I did select to have the phone rooter.
However, I remembered that I forgot to switch fastboot off while testing rumrunner with the ROM from @Seanie280672.
I have now disabled this and am trying again. If it doesn't work, will reinstall the ROM again with CWM and *make sure* to have super user privileges (although I do have the Superuser app installed now just after flashing.)
I also remember that I had some super user issues when I was trying to install MIUI and had to install some zip via CWM. I still have that zip so will try with it.
Again, thank you VERY VERY much for helping me out!
Best,

your better off using TWRP recovery to flash the rom, there should be an option to root during the installer, but if there isnt then TWRP will ask you if you would like to root before leaving recovery.

Did it via CWM, made sure to select to root the phone. Still, I can do "su" when in the phone shell via adb, but it won't be directly with root access after "adb shell".
Now will try with TWRP (since installing the guru reset rom also resets the recovery to the HTC stock) and report back.
Good thing is I still have the MIUI backed up to use with CWM.
I will write soon.
Best,
