Fastboot flash stock ROM - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, i have unlocked my bootloader and flash in a custom recovery with custom ROM.
Currently i want to return back to stock 4.4.2, firmware 4.20.707.6. However there are no stock rom available.
I even tried using the htc1guru reset method. It downgraded to 4.3, received OTA but fails to install.
Is it possible to flash a lower version of firmware to my device and receive the OTA update, or can i use Guru Reset method to downgrade to 4.3 and manually flash the OTA?
By the way, i am still S-ON
Below are my version information:

When trying to install the OTA did you reflash the stock recovery? OTA will not install with custom recovery.

To return to stock you need to flash stock recovery then relock the bootloader (but your bootloader flag is RELOCKED)
To have a proper back to stock, it is best to have a S-Off device and then below steps :
1. flash the stock ROM
2. with a custom recovery like TWRP, flash the SuperSU.zip for root access
3. LOCK the bootloader with a special LOCK command (the bootloader will show LOCKED)
4. flash the stock recovery
5. full unroot the SuperSU thru its settings
6. S-ON the device with special fastboot command
7. Done - you'll have a device with a stock ROM with LOCKED status

Yes, you will be able to receive OTA when there is one.
And you don't need to relock bootloader to do OTA update but you need to have a stock recovery flashed prior to OTA update, the OTA won't work with any custom recovery like CWM or TWRP.

There is no further OTA currently for 4.20.707.6.... actually I was wondering why do you need to revert to stock in the first place
Also why is TAMPERED there ? Is the recovery the correct one and the boot.img also the stock one ? Did you flash any custom hboot that remove the red text warning before you relock the bootloader ?

I want to revert my phone to stock and receive future updates and i just want to try some custom roms in the android world. Well currently i just want to use my phone as a stock device and receive updates when available, something like a retirement..lol
not sure how the TAMPERED got there but hope it does not effect any OTA
nope, i did not flash any custom hboot, i just use fastboot to lock my bootloader.
What i did was :
1. Wipe everything and and push the stock rom to twrp, then install
2. reboot to fastboot and relocked my bootloader and flash in the 4.20.707.6 firmware
3. factory reset and now running stock.
Hope i did not do anything wrong @@

You should delete your serial number and imei.
Also, you can access boot loader and recovery, so your phone is savable.
Step one is to calm down. Nothing you do while freaking out will help.
You tried to flash an unsigned firmware zip while you're S-On.
The easiest way to recover the phone would be through an RUU. Do some searching and see if there's one for your cid.
If not I would recommend flashing a custom recovery, then a custom rom to get you up and running. Once the phone boots you can move your stock backup to the correct location on the phone, and restore it.
EDIT:
Before you go through all that, try flashing a custom kernel that is compatible with the last rom you were using. It may be as simple as the firmware contained a boot.img.

@ CoryTallman
Thank you so much for your reply, i have somehow tried to restore my backup and it was successful but touch screen was not working.
so right now i have installed custom rom and it is working fine,
now i am in no hurry,
can you help me to unroot this phone ? i need to claim warranty against it.
so as you said, do i have to S-off to install that RUU(one with above link) file and get unroot ?
or what else i can do ?
Thank you so much once again......

1- The reason touchscreen didn't work is because of the updated drivers in firmware. What you could do after you restore your stock rom and stock recovery, is use an OTG cable with a mouse to receive the OTAs.
2- In order to return 100% to stock - ie LOCKED, not RELOCKED and no TAMPERED in hboot), you need to have S-Off. Unfortunately, you have hboot 1.55 for which there is no S-Off at the moment.
sorry to be noob over here.
1) so right now i cannot not get to 100% stock i.e. locked & no Tampered i hboot, any how ?
my question is can i downgrade hboot and do s-off ?
if not then i'll wait for 1.55 s-off support meanwhile
2) with custom recovery (TWRP) i'll restore my backup , so i'll be with custom recovery and stock rom, & i'll use OTG cable to install OTAs
but can you explain me how to install OTA's (can be installed with custom recovery(TWRP) ? cause touchscreen is working at TWRP)
sorry once again for silly questions and bad English
Thanks,

There is way to downgrade. Sorry.
As for when 1.55 support comes, it is rather a matter of IF not necessarily WHEN. There are no progress reports on this, so no one knows if it will become reality or not.

Once you restore your "stock rom", you also need to restore "stock recovery" (TWRP will not work) and relock your bootloader to be able to get OTAs (regular HTC OTAs)

[Q] Flashing OTA help? - 4.3 -> 4.4 [SOLVED]

I've seen similair threads but nothing posted seems to work for me, and i've been trying to get to stock 4.4 for what seems like ages.
I'll attach a getvar below, but essentially i'm on stock 4.3, although rooted and with TWRP recovery. Despite that, I received the OTA that would update my phone to 4.4.2. I know my phone has the right CID, MID, and firmware for the update, i double checked, and the fact i received it anyways. I've tried installing the OTA on various "Stock" recoveries, i've found around the forum for the htc one, but all have failed and its ended with a red triangle over the phone, and then it gets stuck booting; forcing me to flash a custom recovery, push a nandroid, restore, and start all over again.
Simply, i have an OTA, the right firmware, CID, MID etc, but can someone tell me or point me towards a recovery it will work with, or a work around (I've seen things about extracting the firmware.zip from the main one etc etc). Any reply will be helpful, all i want is for it to install.

Is the stock recovery you've been using from a 3.62.206.x ruu?
It needs to be the same version as your current OS.
Had same issue. Apply it manually from sdcard.

No. Apply it through stock recovery.
Use the recovery.img from your downloaded OTA zip file and try again, that way work for me but i have to redownload the OTA file thou...
I was updated from 2.24.*.* to 3.63.*.* and 4.20.*.* .I use the stock recoveries around the internet I've fond and fail. Than I extract the recovery.img from my 4.3 OTA zip, flash it on 4.2 OS and than just tap Setting>About>SoftwareUpdate. it went well. I countinuously updated that I can't even copy the 4.4 OTA zip file

I mmanaged to get to 4.4.2 using the RUU.exe someone else posted, but i'll keep that in mind for future if i cant find a RUU

[Q] Rooting after 5.03.651.3 OTA Update Questions

Sprint HTC ONE
Background:
Just spent the last 15 hours flashing back to 4.06.651.4 stock rom in order to take the new OTA update 5.03.651.3. Somehow I managed to brick my phone to where it would only stay stuck on the green HTC with white background. The only thing that I was able to get to work was booting into the bootloader and play with fastboot commands. I had CWM recovery installed but could never get adb to discover the phone to sideload a rom onto the memory card. I had no backup, and pretty much had everything wiped and formatted on the phone. I went througt installing back and fourth twrp, cwm, and different stock recoveries, and hours of trying different things to no avail. What got my phone back up and going was at some point changing my cid to 11111111(not sure if this did anything for me), flashing 4.06.651.4_firmware.zip, then running Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_4.06.651.4_RUU.zip (ARUWizard.exe) while in fastboot oem rebootRUU mode. Since then I have installed the 4.06.651.9 OTA and then the 5.03.651.3 OTA which is where I stand at this point.
That being said, here's the state of my phone currently:
No Root
CID: 11111111 ( I don't remember what it should say incase I need to warranty the phone)
S-off
bootloader unlocked (did lock it but found out I didn't have to since I was s-off and since then unlocked)
hboot went from 1.56 to 1.57

Now this here are my questions.
Can I gain Root on being on 5.03.651.3?
If I have to reinstall a custom recovery to gain root, would I be able to flash back to the current stock recovery?
Having the new ver. of hboot 1.57, would I be able to downgrade back to 1.56 using the 4.06.651.4_firmware.zip, to flash back to stock 4.06.651.4 if I want to factory reset and unroot, s-on, and lock the bootloader if necessary?
And last of all what should the CID show from factory on the new OTA?
Basically what I want is to have factory everything rooted so I can get rid of the bloatware. Nice and simple that's all.
Much appreciated!!!

Sprint HTC ONE
Background:
Just spent the last 15 hours flashing back to 4.06.651.4 stock rom in order to take the new OTA update 5.03.651.3. Somehow I managed to brick my phone to where it would only stay stuck on the green HTC with white background. The only thing that I was able to get to work was booting into the bootloader and play with fastboot commands. I had CWM recovery installed but could never get adb to discover the phone to sideload a rom onto the memory card. I had no backup, and pretty much had everything wiped and formatted on the phone. I went througt installing back and fourth twrp, cwm, and different stock recoveries, and hours of trying different things to no avail. What got my phone back up and going was at some point changing my cid to 11111111(not sure if this did anything for me), flashing 4.06.651.4_firmware.zip, then running Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_4.06.651.4_RUU.zip (ARUWizard.exe) while in fastboot oem rebootRUU mode. Since then I have installed the 4.06.651.9 OTA and then the 5.03.651.3 OTA which is where I stand at this point.
That being said, here's the state of my phone currently:
No Root
CID: 11111111 ( I don't remember what it should say incase I need to warranty the phone)
S-off
bootloader unlocked (did lock it but found out I didn't have to since I was s-off and since then unlocked)
hboot went from 1.56 to 1.57

Alright, so answering your questions:
1. Yes you can get root being on 5.03.651.3.
2. 99% sure you can't, unless you RUU; but if you RUU you completely lose everything including root.
3. Yeah you can if you're S-OFF.
ROOTING INSTRUCTIONS:
http://download.chainfire.eu/450/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.00.zip
Try downloading that file and then flashing it in TWRP. I haven't tested this though as the ROM that I'm using is prerooted.
There's a video by fellow member @zedomax that tells you how to do this, although the SuperSU zip in his video is outdated as the video's made in 2013 , so I linked you the latest one above.
EDIT: Oh and the factory CID for the Sprint HTC One is SPCS_001.
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my thread and answering all of my questions. I will try rooting when I get home tonight. Thanks again!!!

You could also use these commands if you are S-off
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip recovery.zip
fastboot reboot
this could flash a recovery since you are S-off and flash back your stock recovery... Make sure you include an android-info.txt file...
In the android-info.txt file include this:
modelid: PN0720000
cidnum: SPCS_001
mainver: 1.29.651.10
hbootpreupdate:3
with that txt file and a recovery be it stock or a custom you can do what you like.

In reference to your answer on #2, Why can't you flash back to current stock recovery?
I'm curious to know because, i'm stocked ROM rooted, TRWP (lastest version), s-On. and i've been updating my firmware OTA.
I download the OTA firmware then flashboot stock recovery, reboot phone and perform the update. Once it's done, i then flashboot custom recovery (TWRP) and flash SuperSU to gain root again. The firmware version I"m on now is 5.03.651.3.
So basically, i'm concerned that i won't be able to flash stock recovery whenever the next firmware update occurs, using the method i've just described.

RUU not working, stuck on first step: "checking headers". Please help.

Hello everyone,
I've rooted by HTC one and also flashed a custom recovery en kernel.
Now I want to sell my phone but I cant get the RUU to run. When I run it it never goes past the first step: "checking headers".
I've had this problem before, someone on this forum advised me to erase the cache, flash firmware en then run the RUU again. This worked but it is nog working now as flashing the firmware gives me an error.

Your device is s-on so you can't use that ruu. You can't downgrade firmware while s-on. It probably worked last time because you were updating.
Why is it you need to flash an ruu is there a problem with your device?

You can flash a Stock Rom and recovery and the phone will get OTA updates. But without s-off you won't be able to fully lock the bootloader (best you'll get is ***RELOCKED***) and you won't be able to remove the Tampered flag.

That'll be fine. I'm on stock rom so I just need to find the stock recovery. It doens't matter that the phone is still rooted?

if you have flashed back the stock rom then your "phone" isn't rooted anymore. You root a rom, not the phone itself. so if you reflash a rom, you'll loose root (unless you re-root or if you have flashed a pre-rooted rom, which isn't the case with a stock rom)
If you havent flashed the stock rom and you are planning just to flash the stock recovery back, I would suggest to flash the stock rom to ensure that everything will be fine for the next owner.
stock recovery and rom for 6.09.401.5 can be found on arhd website (download section) and probably here in the general section, there is a recovery collection thread.

no prob, you can leave the bootloader unlocked (If its not to late ) so if the new owner want it unlocked, he will not loose all HTC preloaded apps when unlocking it from htcdev.com...

Before update a I had 7.19.401.22, i flashed this version - not working, flashed 7.19.401.2 - not working, flashed 7.19.401.30 - not working although it ,the same version is after update.

The ota caused a bootloop because you have installed it on a rooted phone. Unlike older updates (6.xx.xxx.x and before), you can't simply reflash the stock recovery to update. Lollipop updates can only be installed on 100% stock and non-rooted rom. That wasn't a problem in the past but its now a well know problem with all newer updates.
Your version-main is now 7.19.401.30 because, unlike the software, the firmware updated fine. You can't flash the 7.19.401.22 RUU because its now a downgrade in version (because your firmware got updated). Downgrading using a RUU requires S-OFF, your phone is S-ON. Same reason why the 7.19.401.2 won't work.
7.19.401.30 ruu is a "combined" RUU so it can't be flashed on a s-on phone.
Your option are:
unlock the bootloader, flash twrp recovery and flash a rom
or achieve s-off using sunshine and flash the .22 or the .30 ruu (you'll need to do option 1 first because you need a working rom to be able to s-off the phone)
Or maybe someone already uploaded a nandroid backup of 7.19.401.30. If you find one you can restore the backup using a custom recovery and then reflash the stock recovery.

1.What Kind of rom? Stock or custom - without s-off?
3.Do You know anyone who could upload a backup of 7.19.401.30?

1.a stock or stockish rom is best if you want to achieve s-off, You don't need s-off to flash a custom rom, only an unlocked bootloader + a custom recovery.
3. No, might want to ask in the update thread in the general section (see sticky threads)
