Before you attempted this, did you run AlphaRevX to gain S-OFF? Which RUU were you attempting to install? There was another thread about this 'Security Warning' on the HBOOT screen and I'm not sure the OP was able to get this resolved.

yes the phone was s-off but after i install the rom the phone back to s-onn now i cant connect via usb or connection just it appear 'Security Warning' how can install orginal rom?

Here is the other thread about the Security Warning. You may want to read through it and see if any of the suggestions will work for you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136041

The only way to get out of that is by flashing the stock RUU the phone came with. In your case it would have to be Sasktel and if that doesn't work because you receive the error "Main Version is Older!" then your screwed. Your going to have to wait until Sasktel or Bell releases their official gingerbread updates.
I am in the exact same boat as I am the composer of the thread from above lol.

Hi All My phone dead because I try to installed 2.30.405.1 from RUU extracted PG32IMG.zip. when phone is power ON top side write "Security Warning" MY Phone CID is HTC__038 (for Indian) but I had european Rom 2.12.405.7.

I Installed 2.12.405.7 with goldcard. and new can't make goldcard because not ADB
I try add android_info.txt this text cidnum: HTC__038 but not worked
I hope I need Indian RUU Rom with CID: HTC__038 Or who know this Problem? and who can help me?

I had the same problem with my Bell IS, I just ran the ruu.exe from a Windows pc and it installed with no problems at all. Now I'm back to a stock rom, with no problems at all.
I am going to S-off and root again later, whenever a stable Rom comes round. If you don't have a stock RUU, you can get it on HTC'S website, if one for you carrier is available.

In official htc site can't find stock ruu installer for my IS with cid:HTC__038.

You can create a gold card and try flashing your original rom or the rom you were originally trying to flash on your phone.

Can you tell me were or how to make? I have not CID for Gold card
How to make w/o ADB and w/o XTC-Clip?

You can buy a card reader and try and make one that way. Then put the goldcard into the inc s.

Have you tried to install the SaskTel ruu.exe gb upgrade from Windows?
If that won't work, then you will have to find the proper ruu for your phone and install via a pc.

sasktel ruu and zip file not worked - 'model id incorrect'
:-(

Try removing android.txt, leave it out and run ruu again.
It is pretty hard to brick a phone, it just takes some time and a lot of trying different things, but you should be able to succeed.

The only way to by-pass the HTC signature check in RUU mode is if you have S-OFF (security off).

so no way to repair phone?

Ok so I have gone back and reread your posts. I would suggest you go back and try flashing 2.30.405.1 instead of trying to go back to 2.12.405.7. According to your getvar output, the radio from the 2.30.405.1 has been flashed. It would probably help if you could make a gold card and then try flashing the 2.30.405.1 RUU. Or you can try it without a gold card.

[Solved] Back to stock

All right, here comes a noob question:
My HTC One is from Israel, and though I made a nandroid backup of my phone after I rooted it, I don't have one from before my rooting it. That said, my CID was HTC__K18...there is no RUU for that CID, so I used rumrunner to s-off my phone, changed my CID to HTC__01 and used the European RUU (the U not the UL because my phone is a U) to get %100 back to stock. The RUU that I flashed has a hboot of 1.44 and my stock was already a 1.54 and 4.2.2 (maybe 4.1.2?)...anyway after flashing the RUU, I'm not able to OTA and I really just want to get %100 stock...in a way that I'd be capable of receiving all the updates OTA and have the highest firmware/software. Thanks in advance!
Oh, and here's some of my info:
version-bootloader: 1.44.0000 (it shipped with 1.54 but I RUUed an older version)
version-baseband: 4A.14.3250.13
version-main: 1.29.401.2 (it shipped with 2.24.401.2)
version-misc: PVT SHIP S-OFF (used rumrunner to s-off hboot of 1.54)
product: m7_u
platform: HBOOT-8064
modelid: PN0711000
cidnum: HTC__001 (I changed the cid from HTC__k18)

Question: where do you want to go?
1- To an European stock model
2- To your version (I have a nandroid of 2.24.401.2 for a PN0711000, M7_U)

Whatever would give me OTA updates and allow me to be as stock as possible! Just out of curiosity, what would the benefits of each be? Thank you!

LOL, this just resulted in another question: why not use a custom ROM, they get updated way more frequently than OTAs? If you want "stock as possible" you can check out ARHD, it's very stock. (and since you're S-Off you can upgrade/downgrade anytime, including firmware!!)
As for benefits of the other two options:
1) I think HTC__001 (or was it Y13, not sure), are usually among the first WWE editions to get OTAs (not as fast as custom ROMs )
2) HTC_K18 would put you back to a state where you bought the phone.
It's all personal choice, eg I like stock but want it rooted so I'm currently running ARHD 13.3 (until I decide to upgrade), others like their Venom Tweaks or InsertCoin etc... and again for others they need to be unrooted because of some banking apps.
So give it a thought and let me know, which road you wanna take
PS: Hit the thanks button if I helped

Thank you for the quick reply!
Okay, so I'd like to go with the European road...as far as custom ROMs are concerned, I had ARHD, both GE and Sense, but I just want things to run smoothly and not worry about OTAs....I'd like to receive them as soon as they're available with the least amount of headache...
On that note, can I receive OTA updates directly from HTC while I'm s-off? Because currently I don't have that option...it doesn't even show that I have an update available.
Also, is your nandroid of 2.24.401.2 made with cid HTC__k18?
P.s. I don't even need/want to root the phone again...it's just too much for me. I'd like to get as stock as possible while keeping the options open (that's why I want to leave s-off).
Thank you again for your help! You're awesome!

Ok, European road
1- You've already changed your CID, you still need to change your MID: "fastboot oem writemid PN0710000"
(keep a record of your original CID, MID, and software/firmware version somewhere in case you ever need it)
2- remove tampered either using revone or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477792
3- set your phone to LOCKED (not relocked) using revone or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475914
4- then use the full European RUU: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
you should keep S-Off and not go back S-On.
After installing the RUU you should immediately start receiving OTAs all the way up to 3.62
PS: remember the above procedure will wipe everything off your phone, so back up anything you may need first!!

You're awesome. However, I did all those steps except for the first step...when I go into recovery mode now, there's still the red lettering as well as when I go into "Tell HTC and error reporting" the red lettering says "This is a test device. Accordingly, to collect critical information about the device, Tell HTC is enabled and cannot be turned off regardless of device settings." Oh, and I'm not able to receive the OTAs.
Now, if I change the MID, do I need to do all the steps again or can I just do the first step now? Will that help get rid of the "test device" warnings that I have on the phone?
Oh, and I used this European one before (cause I have a U and not UL) http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_..._10-33-1150-01_release_311663_signed_2_4-exe/
Why would I use the UL one?

You won't get any OTAs because of your MID, change it, and see if you start getting the OTAs. M7_U and M7_UL share pretty much most of the software stuff, the hardware is different of course, but MID 0711 and CID HTC__001 won't get any OTAs.
The "Tell HTC and error reporting" red text is because you're S-Off, personally I wouldn't care. But if it bothers you A LOT, you'll need to go S-On again, and AT THIS TIME you should NOT!!! we can deal with that later.
Change MID, and confirm you are now getting OTAs
Again DO NOT GO S-ON, at least for the time being!!

Let's slow it down a little, if I understand correctly:
1- you are now unTAMPERED

Before we go on messing with MID, can you just change CID to HTC__J15 (two underscores) and check for a software update, don't know the original 1.xx version, but I am sure that J15 PN0711 got the 2.24.401.2 and (possibly) 2.24.401.9.
Just check if it gives an update with HTC__J15, no need to download it!!

Hey, how are you today?
I'll be online later (around 5 or 6), but it looks like that RUU is fully compatible with ur original CID. So go ahead with your original CID, and get the OTAs. U should be able to get at least to 2.24.401.9, don't know if 3.62 is out for u yet.
Keep s-off in case we need to change something later.

Hey, no the RUU is not compatible with my original CID (HTC__K18) as there are no available upgrades after I change the CID...also the same is true when I change it to HTC__001, though it did work when you told me to update to J something or other...weird.

Well I guess you have 2 choices:
1- set CID to HTC__J15 -> a friend of mine has PN0711000 HTC__J15, it's basically the M7_U version and HTC__J15 is a nonbranded WWE edition but usually for the Middle East
2- set CID to HTC__001, set MID to PN0710000, and use this RUU: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
by changing to MID PN0710000, it will make the software on your phone think it's a UL model, but since the hardware isn't there for LTE, it won't make any difference.
Step 1, is probably the easiest to do, so why not just set it to J15 and see how far the updates go. (ie if 3.62 is out for J15).
Hope that helps

like said in your other thread, there is no RUU for .599 version.
NEVER go back s-on
you don't need to lock the bootloader to use a RUU because you have S-OFF
just make sure both your CID and MID match the ruu you want to use, if not you can change both of these values, thanks to S-OFF.

CID and MID must match the ruu you will use.
i.e, if you want to use a .401 ruu, cid should be HTC__001 and MID PN0710000

i can choose whatever cid of those , and just that 1 MID , and change my phone's to them , run ruu , the phone is stock , i get an update , udpate it , firmware is updated , and then unlock bootloader again ( in case it relocks by itself due to ruu ) , flash recovery , flash rom again.. is that right ?

the ruu you have linked have PN0710000 and yours is PN0711000, so you'll need to change your mid to use that one. Follow the guide to change mid, its pretty easy to do. Yes you can choose whater cid of those but i'll recommend you to use HTC__001 (don't forget its 2 underscore __ 8 characters total). The bootloader will not relocks by itself

Lock your bootloader, HTC ruu requires it, even if you are s-off
What I don't get is after you have updated your Rom, firmware, and hboot, you are then going to flash a custom Rom ??????
You are making things very difficult and complicated for yourself, just manually update your firmware.

as your s-off you can upgrade and downgrade as you please, ive heard the radio file contained in the new firmware is the best to date.

[Q] Flashed Wrong RUU Trying to go back to Stock, Booloop and Recovery Won't Work

Hey guys and girls. A little backstory:
New to android
Use Cyanogenmod Installer
Get Purple Camera. Need to go back to stock.
Stumble upon guide by nkk71 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082
Botch last step
So I found an ruu with my CID and MID, but it was the GPE ruu not the ATT RUU! The ATT RUU zips don't list CID and MID so I assumed I should not use them and all that matters is matching those.
I had locked and went back to s-On when following the guide.... big mistake.
I've since unlocked and tried to root so that I could go back to S-Off.
Flashed several different correct recoveries and none will work. I am erasing the cache, but nothing works. I've tried the most recent versions of CWM and TWRP and can't get anywhere.
What should I try next?

Sorry to hear that, I thought my guide was pretty clear
please post
1- a fastboot getvar all (excluding IMEI and s/n)
2- a screenshot of your bootloader
3- more details of what you have flashed (with links to the threads)

Your guide is very good and I thank you for it. I just messed up. I think it would be good to clarify that a person should reboot after flashing RUU before going back to S-On. I had the impression that was my only chance to go back S-On.

Technically, you can, but shouldn't reboot the OS because of the OTA notification, which may make it tempting to take, but I'll try and rephrase the guide.

bootloader is unlocked, good... do NOT try and lock it!!
reflash TWRP and a custom ROM (you can try ARHD 31.6 or similar), and get S-OFF using rumrunner and/or firewater
i'm off for tonight, sorry about the mess

The stock att RUU's would almost certainly have the stock CWS_001 Cid. You just need one that is the same or postdated to your current hboot version since you are s-on now. Unfortunately, now that you are s-on, you will also need to relock the bootloader to flash an RUU. I would do that and then use firewater/rumrunner/latest s-off method to get s-off and unlock boot loader. Then you want to fix the "relocked" flag to "locked", and s-on again, and get it repaired.

I would try to get S-OFF where you are now.
I'll keep this here just in case
Otherwise, you can use the 3.xx RUU.EXE: http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p...13_10.38j.1157.04_release_334235_signed_2.exe
this will upgrade to hboot 1.55, and rumrunner and/or firewater should work on it.
(remember you need to relock bootloader for that to work with S-On, that's why i'm recommending to try where you are now, so you don't lock bootloader)
there is also a 4.xx RUU but do not use it, because it will upgrade your hboot to 1.56, making it even more difficult to S-OFF.
and once you're S-OFF, you should use this ruu.zip for my guide (which is for PN0712000 + CWS__001):

I was able to get TWRP (newest version) and ARHD (31.6) running. I then got S-OFF using Firewater. I'll use the RUU and follow the guide again.
I saw another one of your posts that suggested S-OFF may not effect warranty claims. Any further thought on that?
Thanks again for all your contributions.

It's really very country/carrier/people specific, in theory, S-Off shouldn't matter as some phones accidentally ship S-Off (ok, it's very very very rare), but S-Off shouldn't void warranty https://twitter.com/htc/status/377422743626842112
Then again, in practice some carriers/technicians may try to use any excuse to refuse warranty.

[Q] Htc M7 Soft Bricked Need Advice

Hi guys,
I have gone through the the forum and have read up on the issure, I have made some progress, I need some expert advice on the last few stages.
The Htc one M7 is soft bricked, i have unlocked the bootloder via the htc site, i know how to use ADB and fastboot command line. I have installed TWRP on the phone, now i can see my phone as a drive on my computer. the phone is still S-ON
What i want to achieve:
Put a stock firmware on the phone and thats that.
Not too keen on putting customs firmwares, if there is a Google Edition firmware, that will be a plus if not then the firmware with sense 5 or 6 etc.
The CID is 332 ( could this be an issue)
I just need the phone to work as normal with stock or google play edition stock.
Do i need to get s-on to S-off? whats the easiest way. what firmware would work for this cid-332, do i need to change my CID to get best firmware, these are the stages i need advice.
Thanks a lot guys.

you seem to have a carrier that has never released a RUU or any useful files really. Did you make a Nandroid backup of you stock software ?
If you have no backup the best you can do is just flash an international Rom that matches you firmware version like this one
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358543706
During install choose No to stock recovery and No to installing the Radio

you'll be able to flash it but you will never get ota uptades using this version because of your cid and mismatch between software version and firmware version.
Its not possible to return it to stock .599 so you should either s-off it and do a conversion to another version or use custom roms.

hi i have a problem when usin my phone it suddenly freezers and was not able to get acces to anything (Was rooted/Bootloader Unlocked/having Custom Rom/TRWP/S-ON).. tried to restore my rom by usin twrp 2.8. but there was no file and it cannot mount my storage...
Then, found on a thread to restore stock ROM via RUU, so i relocked my bootloader and then find myself stuck at everything
When I plug in AC adapter for charging, phone load in bootloader, and whenever i press "Fastboot/Factory Reset" my phone freezes
Even fastboot and ADB command freezes my phone,
I need help please.
