i'm trying to install a stock Europe ROM from a RUU.zip because the RUU.exe wont run on my laptop for some reason (Windows 8.1 64bit)
i am S-off and have changed my CID to Super-CID and MID to the required one.
I have the latest HTC drivers installed and have uninstalled HTC Sync. my HBOOT version was 1.57 before, but i used firewater to obtain s-off and it brought my HOBOOT back to 1.44 (i don't know how) *i couldn't get s-off with 1.57*
i'm trying to follow this guide to install the ruu.zip
but i can only get as far as adb reboot-bootloaderon htcguru site
after it boots to bootloader mode the USB device becomes unrecognized and i cant fastboot any commands (waiting for device) shows up.
i restart my phone and i can mount to my laptop just fine and everything but when i get into fastboot mode it becomes unrecognized (Code 43), i've been up all night trying to find a solution but nothing. im lost for ideas.
ive tried different ports and restarted my laptop several times
any ideas. only reason i wanted the European ROM was to get rid of the o2 UK bootanimation and now its become a much bigger problem
i cant even run the ruu.exe file now that im s-off so im pretty much stumped
Windows 8 and 8.1 has trouble recognizing hboot 1.44, Update hboot to 1.54 and Windows will now recognize fastboot.

Hboot 1.44 is fine with Windows 7
Take a look at FAQ 1, and 5, from here

Hello friends,
I tried reverting back from 4.3 Developer Edition back to my original phone's condition by restoring a 4.1.2 CWM backup (Rogers) that I had. This worked, except the touch drivers don't work. I tried to run a 4.2.2 update under RUU, which seemed to break after the first attempt, and the second attempt did not work.
HBOOT 1.55 flagged the OS version and from here on out my computer stopped recognizing my device over fastboot (but is fine in ADB).
I've reverted back to my HBOOT 1.44 and the OS version flag is gone, but I'm still getting Failed Device Enumeration. Is there a partition I may have broken during the failed RUU?
You using windows 8.1 by chance? If so, you're not alone...

Yeah! Welcome to this laaarge club! Win 8.1 hate our One.
There's a thread just for this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46794667
Easiest fix is flashing through Linux... even a live CD works.
I fixed my issue by completely deleting my htc drivers (there is also an HTC folder under programfilesx86) and reinstalling.

Looks like it hates all the HBOOTS except 1.55 from 3.22 base. I put that HBOOT back onto my phone, and fastboot works fine with Windows 8.1 and HBOOT 1.55. This is letting me get back into RebootRUU to run the RUU for the 4.3 developer edition until I try this thing again later hahaha.
I've just got a new laptop and after installing 8.1 fastboot is working fine with the HTC Sync Manager drivers and FW 3.62 so yeah, assumed HTC fixed it!

But it doesn't work with hboot 1.44 which I needed to return to stock by running the 1.27.401.7 RUU. I had to re-install windows 8 to run the RUU then upgrade back to windows 8.1 afterwards which is not such an ordeal for me as I store all of my data on an external hard drive.
If we could just get hold of a more recent .401 RUU I would be very happy then all my windows 8.1 issues will be resolved.

Just got my new laptop running windows 8.1. Now my ONE is not recognized when in fastboot, no fastboot drivers. Did a lot of research and found that everything works on the new hboot 1.55 which I don't run! Does anyone have the fastboot drivers available and can share? Or does anyone know of flashable for just the hboot upgrade?
I ran into the same issue on my home desktop computer with 8.1 after messing around with it I ended up grabbing out my old hard drive and booting back into Windows 7 however I would try flashing the Rumrunner H boot which should be compatible with Windows 8.1 as others have told me but I haven't tested it yet but that is my plan when I have to do my next round of flashing. Your going to have to use a Windows 7 (or xp) computer in order to do that but once you do then you can use your 8.1 computer from then on out
I wonder if I could get just the fastboot drivers if it would work without having to change my hboot. Does anyone have the fastboot drivers only available?
Go read the FAQ, @BD619 has the info you likely need in that thread (stickied).

You will have to upgrade the hboot for it to work on 8.1 regardless of what drivers you get at least that is my understanding. I'm on an older hboot because I did a custom hboot with my name on top. The main reason I did a custom hboot was to get rid of the ugly red development text during boot which rumrunner will do. The bootloader customizer plugin hasn't been updated to the new hboot yet so I would just flash rumrunner hboot. It just says rumrunner at the top and most important red development text is gone.
I'm trying to avoid changing my hboot because I have modded just the way I like it and I've never had a problem with it. But I guess is lose one, gain one!

All u need is the rumrunner hboot and Ur good. U do not need to flash any firmware. I've always done the same as u, upgrade firmware without hboot but this time I had to flash just a new hboot. And everything is all good now with windows 8.1! :thumbup:

Nice add to the FAQ, I had 8.1 before it was released so I ran into this issue right away but as it rolls out even more it's going to come up more often. With s-off changing upgrading/downgrading hboots isn't a big deal at all. With s-on you gotta be careful but this is the 1st time I can recall ever that upgrading your hboot has a benefit.

hello guys,
I have a terrible problem. my htc in bootloader mode> fastboot, the computer does not recognize the device, but when it is turned recognize it in a few seconds and this since I put in s-off. How can I solve this problem? because I would have to go back to the HTC official updates, but with root permissions. thanks for your time

From memory hboot 1.54 doesn't like Windows 8. Do u know someone who has Windows 7?

Win 7, no I don't
Can I change my hboot to make it compatible?
Actually maybe it was 1.56 that didn't like Windows 8. Argh I can't remember. If you are s off you can easily downgrade or upgrade hboot

Hboot 1.54 is compatible with Windows 8
Windows says it's malfunctioned and and Windows does not recognise it.
Running Windows 8.1 with HBOOT 1.44. Anyway I could get it to work? ADB works fine though.

There is drivers issue with win8 and hboot 1.44. use windows 7, Linux or MacOS.
Windows8 will works fine when you'll update hboot
Same problem exactly on 8.1 but i find a way to update hboot via adb shell commands. But still even im s-off i cant flash ruu, reboots to ruu mode for flashing hboot pre update thing, and suddenly my fastboot drivers doesnt work and getting the same error.
Edit:
This errors started after flashing the 1.44 hboot just after s-offed. After this problem i pushed the 1.54 hboot via adb shell, but still same error

I am having an issue with my phone in fastboot mode. After changing my CID to GOOGL001 from CWS_001, I was in the process of flashing the GPE RUU, but it got interrupted and it was stuck on the HTC logo for a while. I ended up rebooting the device and now it is unrecognized in fastboot, yet it still works in normal mode. In fastboot mode, it is a black screen instead of the normal white screen. I don't think anything is wrong with my drivers because everything was working alright before. Phone is still fully functional and I would like to either change my CID back to normal or continue with the GPE RUU. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
I have tried using USBDeview to uninstall all drivers and reinstalled all HTC drivers, but I still cant get it to connect on fastboot. Has anyone had a similar issue with their phone or know what I can do?

my guess is that you are using windows 8 or above and your phone is on hboot 1.44.
try with windows 7, linux or mac.

Yeah I am on Windows 8.1, but my phone is on hboot 1.54 if that makes a difference. I will try to get on a computer with windows 7 next weekend when I get home. Really hoping that it works out because this has been stressing me out these past two days.
