[Q] Flash RUU problem - PLEASE HELP!

Please help, I have a big problem!
I accidently flashed a rom that required S-off but my device is S-on and now it keeps rebooting. After that I tried to install Stock Sense(fflashable .zip) but when it almost completed, it failed. Now if I reboot it it doesn't go further than the HTC logo screen. I did some research to flash the stock sense on it but I don't know which RUU I have to flash. My the device is the international version unlocked (m7ul). My radio is radio-4a.17.3250.14
my getvar:
bootloader version: 0.5

I don't get any devica-main code so I really don't know which one to download, but I've downloaded one, but when I try to flash it, It always fails at: (boatloader) checking signature.

this is because you the tried to flash something (ROM or any other package) with S-ON
you have to flash it with custom recovery, CWM or TWRP
which one you selected?

So I'll tell you my story.
First it was on sense, then I installed OneDroid using TWRP v2.6.3.3, It worked perfectly fine but battery drain was to bad so I decided to return to Sense, so I flashed a flashable .zip. Eveyrthing worked ok. Then I heard that AOKP had better battery life so I downloaded it, but it didn't want to install, It kept saying ERROR. Then I've thought of flashing the Google Play Edition. So here everything went wrong. it tried to flash with TWRP but It got failed aswell. then I flashed CWM on it, installed the Google Play Edition rom and rebooted my phone, after 3 seconds it reboots, and it keeps on rebooting. but eventually I got back into Recovery and flashed the Sense rom that I still had on my phone. But when I was installing that, It got failed. Then I tried to flash TWRP to install the Sense rom, but after I flashed TWRP, I couldn't go back into recovery. Then the phone get stuck on the HTC logo screen.
So now I want to flash Sense with RUU but I don't know which one to install and it fails when I flash the .zip with cmd. It fails at "checking signature".
PLEASE PEOPLE HELP ME, it's my brother phone's and I messed up

are you on TWRP?
if so when you select the ROM to flash, uncheck the verification md5 something

I can't get back into recovery. Getting into the boatloader is the only thing I can do
Please try to find me the right RUU and a RUU that doesn't requires S-off, that would be awesome!

i understand you are anxious, but please calm down, before you end up with a brick; (and please don't cross-post, it just get's everybody confused)
I'll be back in a little while, but in the meantime can you confirm,
1- you have bootloader unlocked
2- what OS are you running (Win7 / 8 / 8.1, Ubuntu, Mac)
3- do not type the output of "fastboot getvar all", use copy/paste

so hboot 1.54 (HTC__E11) = 2.24.401.x firmware.
so first, get yourself unlocked again, we need s-off
use HTCdev to get an unlock token and unlock...

do you have a functioning ROM? you'll need to use rumrunner to get s-off
i believe you need a rooted ROM, preferably with unsecured kernel.
what recovery are you on, and what ROM?

Tha problem is that I don't have any ROM on it now, but I do have a ROM on the memory of the phone(Sense rom) and I'm using TWRP v2.6.3.3 but I can't go into recovery Don't know why...
Nevermind I can get back into recovery but everything got erased

Sorry didn't come back yesterday, but I'll be online a bit later...
In the meantime, flash the ROM I sent you, and use http://rumrunner.us/ to get s-off
to get the rom to your phone, go to custom recovery (CWM or TWRP), then use one of the following methods:
1- OTG cable
2- adb push <name of rom>.zip /data/media/0/
3- adb sideload <name of rom>.zip
example of adb push:
Code:
C:\ADB2>[B]adb push Guru_Reset_M7_3.62.401.1.zip /data/media/0/[/B]
2922 KB/s (1102709591 bytes in 368.450s)
note that adb push will not show any kind of progress until it completes (about 5 to 10 minutes).
and finally choose "install" in CWM or TWRP and install it.
then use rumrunner; remember reading the rumrunner instruction (especially the firewall/antivirus etc).

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_4A.13.3227.06_10.27.1127.01_release_308001_signed_2_4.zip
i received following error

You need this RUU, and because its a downgrade, you will need to s-off first and then flash hboot 1.44. After your phone will be back to stock 1.28.401.7 and you will receive ota to latest version. Follow this procedure and don't forget to thanks the OP for his awesome guide :good:.
The other option if you don't want/can't s-off is to use this rom (guru reset). this is the stock rom for your version, and you will be able to update ota after. Instructions for guru reset can be found here

Still not working

The first solution didnt work cause since i have no OS in my HTC so adb functions are not working, since adb functions are not working so i cant do an s-off
The second solution: i dont know how to get the zip file inside my phone cause i cant execute adb sideload, is there anyother way to trasfer the file to the phone or is there any other way of executing it guru reset.

Boot your phone in TWRP recovery, dont select any option, just let the phone boot in twrp main menu
then:
Code:
adb push name_of_guru_reset_file.zip /sdcard/
then in twrp select install, chose the .zip and follow instruction in aroma installer.

Cant downgrade from gpe / 5.01

Hi, Hope this post is in the right place, apologies if not.
I recently got a HTC One (M7) which was already unlocked, S-OFF and rooted and had 4.4 on it but i wanted to upgrade that OS so installed GPE and then it updated a few times to 5.01 which was all good but now i want to go back to 4.4 and this is the problem i'm having.
I'm in the UK using a O2 UK RUU file which i know does work but now when i go to use it i get as far as 'Checking Header' (5%) and thats it ..it wont go any further? I have tried in compatibility mode but that just returns errors.. I am using Fastboot & ADB tools and tried pushing the firmware but i'm really quite a novice when it comes t stuff like this ..
I tried fastboot getvar and all i get it a list of commands now which i dont understand
I do know my CID is 111111
Here's the Bootloader Info:
*** UNLOCKED***
M7 UL PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID 11111111
HBOOT 1.54.0000
RADIO 4T.30.3218.21
OPEN DSP v34.120.274.0429
OS 5.11. 1700 .3
All i want to do it flash the phone back to original Stock with OS 4.4 ..
also, when i try to go into recovery it wont let me, i get the green android laying on his back with a red exclamation on him and pressing up with power dont take me into recovery.
Any idea's please?
I would like to thank xda and it's members for all the help previously.. thanks guys

Flash the firmware that matches your RUU first
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then flash the RUU ... RUU gets stuck on the Hboot update step, flashing firmware first eliminates this problem

Hi and thank you for your help.. i tried looking for the correct firmware.zip but after trying to flash it i get errors and 'fails' i'm not exactly sure which firmware i should be using - i did go to HTC site and selected what i thought were O2 UK FW files (1 was MR 3, 1 MR2 and 2 x zip files) so i assumed the .zip files were the FW files but its with these i got the errors. When i flashed them it did read them but aftr a few seconds returned a fail.
The RUU i am trying to put back on is RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_O2_UK_4.20.206.16_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353143_signed_2 which i know works on my device as i used it before i installed the GPE.
Any ideas please? I'm sorry i cant provide any more information.

Well you phone is having a bit of an identity crises
you have hboot 1.54 ( assume it's the Dark bootloader for GPE)
your Firmware version is 6.x.401.x which is for the International version
and your CID is O2
I'm going to recommend you convert to International by changing you CID
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
then flash this firmware
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407574077
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot
followed by this RUU
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe
or
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 - 1.50 GB

Maybe a little late but you could also try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358781
Go to post #2 and follow those instructions. Then flash whatever RUU you want.
I converted to GPE one time, didn't like it and also had trouble getting back to KK.

Thanks again for the help.. much appreciated - im using TWRP v2.7 and wiped the whole phone by accident - i'm trying to push (adb sideload fw_4.19.401.9_custom.zip) but keeps coming back as no device - i have a yellow exclamation in device manager under 'other devices' 'one' and cant seem to find a windows 7 driver for this? once i can push or sideload the firmware i can flash it correct?
Thanks again

So to refresh my memory, you were on stock GPE and want to go back to stock sense correct? Now you have wiped the phone using twrp and twrp is all that is left?

First you need to get the driver working. Click on "one" and see if you can select from a list of devices on the pc. Now if the last working firmware on the phone was gpe then you need to push/sideload a gpe based Rom. This is because the partition structure is different than sense. You need to get a working Rom onto the phone first.

Flashed perfectly, but when I reboot the phone is still on kitkat with a software number of 5.12.502.2. Is it supposed to be that still, untill I flash a lollipop rom?

I had this issue when I RELOCKED my bootloader. Are you sure that your bootloader is unlocked? I flashed appropriate RUU and got my phone to boot in android in few minutes. In oreder for someone to help you with specifics boot your phone in fastboot and type:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
than post the output without email and serial number here or where ever you ask for help in other forum topics.

Ok my friend, I see you are posting in 4 different threads since yesterday. Keep posting here, this will make things much simpler for you and simpler for us to help.
Yesterday you were asking help how to remove tampered then how to downgrade and now how to flash stock recovery... with a file named twrpul.img..... this is not even a stock recovery...
What are you trying to do exactly, what is your goal?

you need htc_fastboot.exe not the normal fastboot.exe, its all explained in the thread were you have downloaded the ruu. Download htc_fastboot.exe and save it in your adb / fastboot folder.
1. Rename file to RUU.zip
2. Place it in adb folder
3. Reboot phone to fastboot mode
4. S On need to relock bootloader (fastboot oem lock) , S Off lock not needed
5. Also use the htc_fastboot.exe not the normal fastboot.exe
get the htc_fastboot.exe : Here
Rename htc_fastboot to fastboot or if you don't rename it, then the command will be "htc_fastboot flash zip RUU.zip"
Run the following commands from your adb folder:
6.htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU
7.htc_fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
8.htc_fastboot reboot-bootloader

M7 Sprint m7_wls - firmware/update issue

I'm having some issues with getting the firmware updated on my m7 and hoping someone can help.
I had posted some info in another thread of mine, but the thread is now over a year old so I figured I would start a new one.
First, here is my get-var output
C:\DroidTools>fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.44.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.00.20.0626
(bootloader) version-cpld: None
(bootloader) version-microp: None
(bootloader) version-main: 1.31.651.2
(bootloader) version-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON
(bootloader) serialno:
(bootloader) imei:
(bootloader) meid: 99000146505640
(bootloader) product: m7_wls
(bootloader) platform: HBOOT-8064
(bootloader) modelid: PN0720000
(bootloader) cidnum: SPCS_001
(bootloader) battery-status: good
(bootloader) battery-voltage: 4001mV
(bootloader) partition-layout: Generic
(bootloader) security: on
(bootloader) build-mode: SHIP
(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT
getvar:all FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))
finished. total time: 0.094s
Not sure why the get-var didn't finish out (Too many links) ?
Anyways I tried updating the firmware with the latest I could find for the sprint variant, but I received this error.
"Target didn't report max-download-size"
sending 'zip' (45578 KB)...
OKAY [2.807s]
writing 'zip' . . .
(bootloader) zip header checking . . .
(bootloader) zip info parsing . . .
FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail)
finished. total tim: 3.067s
I've tried a few different versions of firmware as well and still no luck.
I can just fastboot reboot bootloader and then reboot after that and I'm back to my normal stuff with no issues though.
I was also able to flash a newer twrp recovery without any hiccups.. so not sure what is up.
I am currently running AICP 12.1 but I am getting allot of crashes on random thing, and I suspect my mega-old firmware may be contributing. I also tried the last CyanogenMod that was available (13...?) but I couldn't get data and calls to work.
I also attempted to re-lock the boot-loader and tried flashing the firmware that way, but I received a different error.
"remote 12 signature verify fail"
After that I had to scramble and remember how to unlock the boot-loader again just to get my phone to boot back up lol. I haven't had my unlock file in years so that was fun.
So I'm stuck at 1.44.0000 for now. I'm starting to wonder if i have to find an older firmware first before I can jump to a newer one?
Also slightly confused on the RUU. I am already running custom recovery and custom ROM. Is updating the RUU still necessary?
All feedback and help is welcomed.
Thanks

The firmware.zip you are trying to flash (the one linked in the other thread) isn't signed so your phone must be s-off. Sorry I should have mentioned that earlier but didn't noticed yours was s-on.

Its actually s-off now, showing "shipped s-on"?
Not sure what that means but the bootloader is definitely unlocked.

bootloader unlocked doesn't mean s-off. If your phone is s-off you should see "PVT SHIP S-OFF" and "Security: OFF" in your fastboot getvar all output
On a S-ON phone you can only flash signed firmware.zip and it must be done with a locked (or re-locked) bootloader
On a S-OFF phone you can flash signed or unsigned firmware.zip and the bootloader status doesn't matters (can be locked, re-locked or unlocked).
The sprint firmware linked in the other thread, the one that you are trying to flash is an unsigned zip so you need s-off first. Otherwise you can try to update the whole phone using the latest sprint RUU from htc's website, not sure it will work on hboot 1.44. Backup important files before trying, the ruu will wipe and update your rom and firmware. Btw you also need to be locked/re-locked to flash a ruu if your phone is s-on.

The phone won't boot and the version-main is blank. First time I'm handling an M7 since this is a friends and the guides all involve toolkits so kinda lost at the moment. Bootloader is locked
Unlocked the bootloader only to find it has TWRP and no OS

You can flash it back to stock rom using a RUU.
The latest version is here: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...691.655435036.1511537283-936972463.1506975706
Launch the .exe file with the phone in bootloader mode and showing "fastboot usb" in red
If you are not using a Windows PC you can find the .zip version of the same RUU here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24588232905725176
You can flash it using fastboot in ruu mode:
Code:
htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip PN071IMG_M7WLS_L50_SENSE60_SPRINT_6.23.651.10_signed.zip
htc_fastboot reboot
If you prefer to flash a custom rom instead of stock, just make sure to choose one compatible with the Sprint variant (M7WLS). Push it to your phone memory and flash it using the "install" menu from twrp.
If the phone was sim-unlocked (working on other network than Sprint) you might have to sim-unlock again after flashing a RUU.

Thanks I actually already managed to fix it using this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795856
I used the full firmware but had to install this redistributable file for RUU to work (Windows 10) after locking bootloader:
https://npackd.appspot.com/p/com.microsoft.VisualCPPRedistributable/9.0.21022.8
I'll have to search for sim unlock, crap

Thanks for the info. I'm going to try this sometime this week hopefully.
I've been running AICP 7.1.1 for nearly 3 weeks so far with minor hiccups now and then so i'm slightly hesitant to screw something up again :-/
I will update this as soon as I try a signed RUU from HTC.
Will a signed RUU destroy my recovery as well?
Also do I need to unlock after I flash the RUU?
Steps would be
1. relock bootloader
2. Install signed RUU
3. Relock Bootloader
4. Install TWRP
5. Install Rom
6. ?
Assuming I have these correct and everything works that is.

Stock recovery will overwrite twrp when flashing a RUU, not really a concern since it will take only a few minutes to reflash twrp. And yes you'll need to re-unlock the bootloader after flashing the ruu, before you can install twrp back to your recovery partition. Steps 1 to 5 above are correct.
