[Q] Turn back to stock from GE - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i have an Htc One uk (cid 001). Several months ago, I've turned it into a Google Edition. Now I want to turn back to stock 4.4.2 with sense 5.5 rom.
Two questions:
1) I've found some guides, but they're all "old" (for example written on november 2013... maybe today there's an easier way?). Can you show me the best? (I have s-off, Cid GOOGL001 and 1.54 hboot)
2) I can't find the correct RUU file: in collection rom thread, there are 4 europe ruu file and I can't understand the differences
-RUU Zip M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.20.401.1 Radio 4A.13.3227.06 10.27.1127.01 Release 308001 Signed 2 4;
-RUU Zip M7 U JB 50 HTC Europe 1.29.401.2 R Radio 4A.14.3250.13 10.33.1150.01 Release 311663 Signed 2 4;
-RUU Zip M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 Radio 4A.13.3231.27 10.31.1131.05 Release 310878 Signed;

... which one should I choose?
Ps: I have no nandroid backup, I use windows 8.1 or windows 7
Thanks

OK, if I understand correctly:
1) change cid in HTC_001
2) flash hboot 1.44
3) relock bootloader
4) flash ruu (4.19.401.19, right? I'm sure of cid 001; I don't remember original version-main; the back cover of the phone says "model PN07100")
Then I will be on a stock 4.2.2 and for 4.4.2 i will receive ota or must flash?

If the first RUU works fine you'll be on 4.4.2
if you use the 1.29.401.16 you will OTA update to 4.4.2

ok, perfect. Will I receive future ota updates also with unlock bootloader? I don't plan to return phone for repair
and, for the same reason, what about s-off?

Yes that's the one

Is it normal that RUU.exe installation took minutes and minutes?
I've followed the instructions, no errors, and now, after one hour, my pc seems stuck (if I move the mouse, nothing happens before several seconds). Installation window is minimized to Windows status bar, the phone remains on bootloader screen
HtcSync isn't installed
EDIT: after one hour, now installation is checking RUU.
EDIT 2: It says "can took 10 minutes" but after 25' is still stuck...
EDIT 3: After 40' still "check in progress"..should I be concerned?
EDIT 4: Now bootloader rebooting and deleting data user

After 2 hour and 30', I've disconnected the phone..
Just for information: I've installed 1.29.401.16 RUU in zip mode, it worked

[Q] Checking for errors trying to change mid and cid and update to 4.3 OTA.

I live in Brazil, and I just bought the 1.36.599.1 version. I did some research and discovered that it's the HTC One they're selling in latin america, that will never get an update. The only update I got was the camera one, and I really wanted to get 4.3.
So I got S-off, root and unlocked the bootloader. After this, I followed the steps from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2322820 and changed CID and MID. When running the RUU M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 Radio 4A.13.3231.27 10.31.1131.05 release 310878 signed, I got the error 130. I thought that it happened because I wasn't following the update procedure - i went to my room for a few minutes, so I tried again to run it, but again I got error 130. A few more minutes after searching for a RUU, I read that that there's no RUU for the 599. Or at least thats what I understood. And my screen was still gray.
I didn't give up and tried it again. And again, error 130. The strange thing is that after this, my HTC One booted normaly, as if I never did anything to it, but I received a notification that now I can get Android 4.3 and the new version of Sense.
I tried to update, but it says that my phone may be running a modified version of its system software. Also, using fastboot getvar mid, it doesn't show the new mid I typed (PN0710000), it shows the original one (PN0711000). Since I still wanna get 4.3 and receive OTAs, should I run the steps from the start or can I skip some steps? Or there's no way to update my HTC unless i flash a new rom?

Did you apply the Sense 6 OTA to your phone? If you did, then the hboot is a higher number than the RUU you are trying to re-install. The same thing happen to me and I had to install a lower hboot. Check @nkk71 SuperGUIDE to returning 100% back to stock for instructions on how to do install a lower hboot.

[Q] How To Flash Stock Rom Onto HTC One

Hi, I am new to this website and have never adapted my phone before. I have searched through a number of threads on this forum but I am still unsure about how to modify my device, so I would like to ask for your help and a step-by-step list on how to do the following:
I have a HTC One (M7) on the EE (UK) network and I am currently on android 4.3 because EE haven't bothered to release 4.4 + Sense 5.5 yet and haven't informed anyone about when the update will be released, so I have no hope of sense 6 being released any-time soon and I am fed up waiting.
So, I would like to change my HTC One to an unlocked international version which can receive OTA updates direct from HTC instead of waiting for EE and I would like to also flash the STOCK International Sense 6 ROM onto my phone at the same time.
Current CID: ORANG001
Current Hboot: 1.55
Current Software Number: 3.63.61.1
Radio: 4A.21.3263.04
Locked Bootloader with S-On
I would very much appreciate any help you can give.
Thank-You

It's best to be on the stock rom if you are already on one. Use firewater to s-off your phone and then convert to the developer edition.
Edit: a rom with an insecure kernel is best for s-off as clsa has mentioned below.
I have a YouTube tutorial for the conversion part if you'd like to see.

The Stock kernel doesn't play nice getting s-off

Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
So, after I flash ARHD 31.6 and then I s-off with firewater, how would I go about getting the phone ready to receive OTA updates direct from HTC for the UK unlocked version. (I would prefer changing to UK unlocked rather than the Developer version mentioned above)
Also, have you got a link to the version of firewater relevant for me. Thanks

the important thing is changing the CID and MID to match what ever version you choose. Then flash that RUU

So, the Guru reset is included in the RUU file, or is it a separate download? Also, do you know of any good links which have all the details I need to enter in the Command Prompt to do the following:
Flash custom Recovery TWRP 2.6.3.3
Flash ARHD 31.6
Get S-Off with Firewater
Change CID
Also, should I backup my current rom before I do anything and would I use the TWRP recovery to do that, if so how?
Also, on some things I have read it has mentioned something about Aroma, what is this and do I need it?
I know there is a lot of things here, Thank-You very much if you can help me with all of it.

HTC One M7 bootloop after reset to stock

Hi all
Got problem here. Got my phone 2 days ago with Sprint I think. Then I decided to change to other, so Ive download RUU from htc1guru.
RUU Zip M7 U JB 50 HTC Europe 1.29.401.2 R Radio 4A.14.3250.13 10.33.1150.01 Release 311663 Signed 2 4 Decrypted
my CID : 11111111
my MID : PN0710000
S-Off and Relocked
flash the RUU using ADB fastboot, success then it went to bootloop. Non stop bootloop, no recovery.
Any tips, solution to settle this
Thank you and sorry for my bad English. :good:

You can't convert a M7WLS (sprint) HTC One to another version. This variant doesn't have the same partition layout and same radio. The only thing you can do is to relfash a Sprint RUU to get it working again, then after you can flash a Sprint custom rom using a Sprint custom recovery.... everything must be made for the sprint variant.
You can still sim-unlock it so it can be used on GSM network but you won't get full connectivity because of the different radio. Forget about LTE if you're not on the sprint network.
In general if the 5th character from the left of your MID is different than the one listed for the RUU, it is not compatible.
i.e
Sprint: PN0720000
can not be converted to
WWE: PN0710000
WWE: PN0710000
can be converted to
GPE/DEV edition: PN0712000
So revert your MID to sprint, and while you are at it, better to revert your CID to sprint (supercid on sprint variant is totally useless since you can only flash sprint RUU/firmware on it and those RUU/firmware will all have the same CID: SPCS_001), then flash a sprint RUU.
