[Q] Just want to confirm if I can flash RUU when I"m S-OFF and CID11111111

All,
I have the Dev Edition with S-OFF and CID111111 running ARHD 13.3. With the latest update to the Dev Edition to 4.3, can I just flash the RUU for the latest of the Dev Edition? Will it work with TWRP custom recovery?
Thanks for any info.

Emh, the RUU isn't a zip, but an exe that you have to flash with the pc...
However, you can flash it

You can flash an RUU when S-OFF with Super CID, I've done it a number of times
The RUU is a complete update so it will overwrite the custom recovery anyway

Awesome guys....with that being said, I have a few more question. Since I'm S-Off and Super CID, you said I can flash any RUU, but it will wipe the custom recovery. That is fine, but when I want to flash a ROM in the future, I will have to reflash a new recovery correct? Will this mess with my HBOOT? I'm on 1.55 right now.
Also, I'm on the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860 looking at the collecdtion of RUU's...do I flash the ZIP, EXE or the Decrypted RUU's?
Again, thanks for your replies!

Download the RUU from HTCDev directly so you know you've got the right file, then flash it with the phone connected in fastboot. It will downgrade the HBOOT and put the phone back to 1.29.1540.16 and be just like it was out the box (except you'll still be S-OFF with Super CID). You can then get the OTA to .17 and then the OTA to Android 4.3...after that, you can flash a custom recovery and do what you want (but I'd take a nandorid first of course)

EDDYOS,
Thanks for all your info!! I will do exactly that!
One last question, I promise...since I am on S-OFF I should not be worried that flashing the RUU and downgrading to HBOOT 1.54 and not be able to achieve SOFF again? Cause isn't 1.54 having issues with SOFF? Or does that not matter to me since I have the Dev Editoin?
Again, thanks for all your advice.

You'll stay S-OFF so it's irrelevant...the only way you'll go S-ON is if YOU make it. RUUs/OTAs don't touch it
Example:
I'm currently on 2.24.401.8, HBOOT 1.54 and have S-OFF (as I did it when I could ages ago). I recently went back to 1.28.401.7 using the RUU and was still S-OFF. I then got the 4 OTAs to get back to 2.24.401.8 and I'm still S-OFF

[Q] AT&T HTC One Downgrade

Hi hoping someone can chime in and help me out here. I have an att htc one with android 4.3 hboot 1.55 s-on unlock and root. I would like to flash with Google edition locked and unroot so I can receive OTA. From searching It seems that you can't do this unless you are s-off which requires you to be on 4.1 since revone does not work on 4.3? So what I was trying to do was downgrade to 4.1 android and hboot 1.44. Is this possible? I tried to flash the 1.44 hboot in ruu mode but it failed. Do i need to relock my phone then flash the 1.44 zip in ruu mode then use ruu exe for my carrier to flash 4.1? or is there a way to goto Google edition from 4.3? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Rad

i would suggest you not try this since you do not know how to search you need to s-off first you can with rumrunner for hboot 1.55

Thanks for the help jerrycoffman45 I appreciate it. I did search but maybe not enough and focused on searching for 4.1 w/ 1.44 because I had read online about s-off not possible with revone on 4.3. Sorry about that and thanks again for helping.

Restoring 1.57 Hboot to stock Downgrade hboot??

So I am sending my one back that has a failing charging port, and i am trying to get it 100% back to stock. The phone is on the stock rom and recovery, but it has an unlocked and s-off bootloader version 1.57. I heard that since 1.55 Hboot it will re apply the tampered flag when I relock it. Should I downgrade the Hboot to 1.44 or 1.54?

To get s-off its best to have a Stock Rom or something close to stock.
Which method depends on your hboot version
Hboot 1.44 = Revone or Moonshine
Hboot 1.54 to 1.55 = Rumrunner
Hboot 1.56 to 1.57 = Sunshine App (cost $25)

The devs posted in the rumrunner thread. They are having some server issues they are working on getting it backup. Just give it some time. Check the rumrunner thread I'm sure they'll let us know when it's back up

Change back the CID and MID numbers to match the RUU you want to flash, update your hboot from 1.54 to 1.57 or 1.61 so your phone will accept a 7.xx.xxx.xx RUU, then flash your 7.xx.xxx.xx 5.0.2/Sense RUU.
