Hi guys,
I have an HTC One which I had flashed with Cyanogenmod 10.2 and I now want to go back to Sense. I Would like to install Android 4.4 Sense 5.5 (I think!) Or whatever the latest is that is stock.
I have flashed a phone only once before, 6 months ago so have some understanding of what I am doing, but not a great deal.
How do I know which zip file to download please and how can I find it? I am in Europe (England) and my phone provider is Three.
I tried to install this and it failed so I restored my backup. "bigxie_m7_GPe_KRT16S_odexed-signed.zip"
I have TWRP 2.7.0.1
Thank you for any help,

Do you want a custom rom or a RUU (like it came from the factory).

Like it came from the factory please.
Sorry, just noticed that my first post was not clear;
I tried to install this; "bigxie_m7_GPe_KRT16S_odexed-signed.zip" but it did not work. (I had been following a YouTube vid) so I retored my backup that I had made.
When you say "from the factory" . . . I don't want the phone provider (Three's) software bits in there. I would rather just the Google Sense stuff.
So I think I want Android 4.4 (KitKat) Sense 5.5 . . I think!
I have just restored my phone to its Factory Original software that I backed up when I first flashed the Cyanogenmod 10.2 in there. So I am part way there but really I would like the above/latest 4.4 software.
Thanks, hope I'm not talking too much rubbish as this is all new to me.
Thanks

Yeah you've lost me. So are you saying that you want just stock sense without all the carrier modifications? If so, then use the ARHD rom. It removed all the carrier bits and it's now based on Sense 6.

Wait...Google or HTC? If you want Google you need a Google play edition ROM. If you want HTC sense, you need a sense based ROM(arhd).

OK, I think I am learning something!! Google Play Edition is Google software and Sense is HTC software?
Is HTC software based on Google software or does HTC write their own software?
Sorry for the basic questions!!

All android manufactures (well, almost) create their own skin on top of Android. It's still Android, but heavily customized.
EDIT: So here is what I meant.
For Stock Google Play Edition (no HTC sense, 4.4.2): http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_6.1_GE.zip
For Stock HTC Sense (sense 6, 4.4.2) http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=Android_Revolution_HD-One_63.0.zip (this is still uploading so you can't download it yet, but I'm assuming you will be able to pretty soon)

That's absolutly perfect!!! Thank you very much!! I have just had a quick look on You Tube and I like the look of the Sense features so i think I will hang on for that to be ready.

Thanks for the links, that was exactly what I was looking for

I recently upgraded my phone and gave my trusty Hero to an out of town girlfriend. She went to sprint today to have it activated and was unable to get it done. She tells me they attempted to register it on the network but were unable to do so. They say this is because it is rooted and flashed with a custom Rom.
It has the July 08 ASOP rom by jaybob. If anyone can give me any help, I'd be greatly appreciated. I'm wondering if I need to talk her through the process of returning to stock.
Thanks in advance
You need a sense based rom I'm pretty sure.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA Premium App
If you want her to have a completely stock, unrooted phone, you need to "ruu" it. You will find the ruu file and instructions in the development section.
Other than that, you can flash any sense-based rom (infinite fx's, liquid's), and that will let you activate it also.
If she will be taking it into the sprint store, I recommend ruu, tho.

I may be Wrong but you should be able to Activate it over the phone... I think Sprints number is 1-800-639-6111! Also if I were you I'd probably do what the others Advised and Flash a Sense based Rom, Try LiquidSense, or the Fresh Roms are Also pretty Good!
Good Luck!

Basic info about my device:
Model : HTC Incredible S
Android Version : 4.0.4
HTC sense version : 3.6
Software number : 4.12.720.1
I have started to feel that my phone is getting slow and I read about the benefits of rooting. So, I am planning to root my device. While going through the online tutorials, I came to know that once I root it, I won't get updates from HTC and there are also some risks of ending up with a bricked phone. Some posts said that after the recent android update, the old methods of rooting won't work.
Can someone please post a link or method of rooting my device in easiest way possible? I'd also like to know whether android version/looks will remain same after rooting? As per posts, I won't be able to get HTC updates. What are my options of staying updated in case my device supports new android versions? I kinda like the UI of my phone. Is it possible to root my phone without altering anything else?
Detailed answers would be better.

There won't be any more updates from HTC that's for sure. I mean I once read that HTC plans on stopping the One X after 4.2.2. I think HTC was already extremely generous to give us 4.0.4. Besides, Sense 3.6 is the crappy version of Sense 4 anyways and Sense 4 looks nicer in almost every aspect in my opinion.
Rooting is as basic unlocking the bootloader via HTCdev.com and flashing a custom recovery. However, you will notice that some people have something called S-OFF. Unlike just unlocking the bootloader (which still leaves S-ON), S-OFF grants you permission to certain parts of a particular partition (which I don't seem to remember but what I say here should be enough) and in that way, you do not need to flash the boot.img within each custom ROM (which is probably, the biggest limitation of leaving your phone at S-ON). This is quite a bit to swallow but you'll understand more as you go along rooting and flashing custom ROM plus a bit of Google searching on the side.
As for guides, look at the top of the General Section (you're in it right now!) and everything that's labelled [GUIDE] should be good to use.
To answer the last question, yes it is possible to root the phone and leaving everything as is although there is absolutely no point in doing so. Unlocking the bootloader WILL WIPE your phone clean (ie game data, sms, call logs.....). It would be best to just start fresh. If you are so intent on staying on Sense 3.6, then I would recommend you to either Android Revolution HD or Blackout ROM which you can find more information on in the Android Development section.

Thanks for the reply.
Well, I gave a thought and I don't plan to stick to the sense 3.6 looks coz sense 4 will definitely be better. Can you suggest a good ROM for me? I have heard about Cyanogen Mod. What's your opinion regarding that? They have provided full tutorial for flashing their recent ROM. Does that also mean that I will get the superuser access or do I need to do something extra?

Depends on what you're looking for really. CyanVivo10.1 is Android 4.2.2. Id say I'm only using CyanVivo10.1 for the sole purpose of having a theme engine plus theres always more free RAM on AOSP ROMs which Id like since multitasking its pretty essential to me.
However in terms of battery and overall performance Id have to ViperVivo is best. Nik Project_X_Rebirth is also a very good choice but the lock screen ticks me off -.- My favourite Sense ROM is either Blackout or KingCobra although the latter has had reports of not booting past the splash screen for a number of people.

Has it ever occured to you that the S II probably has a CPU that natively supports ion?? And that's why they have Jellybean where as the Sensation does not?? HTC isn't gonna work their bums off to get a device to support ion when they have the newer phones such as the HOX and the One.

okay, after reading your statement, I have to tell you a thing, rooting out HTC IncS which running on Android 4.0.4+Sense 3.6 is impossible (guys, correct me if I'm wrong) If you want to root it, you have to downgrade it back to Android 2.3.5, which is a VERY troublesome thing.. here's a guide might help you understand something about rooting our HTC IncS! >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987687

rooting and S-OFF are not the same thing. Rooting is just unlock bootloader and flash custom recovery. That is certainly possible on any android OS. S-OFF on the other hand, you need to downgrade back to 2.3.3 (in order to get HBOOT 1.13) and then run revolutionary to get S-OFF

Sorry, but it is possible to gain root access on the HTC ICS/Sense 3.6 ROM without the downgrading option that you referenced.
Unlocking the bootloader using the procedure at HTCDEV.com will allow you to install a custom recovery such as CWM or 4EXT and then you can flash SuperSu which will allow apps to request root access. With a custom recovery in place, a user can also flash a custom ROM, but the drawback is that /boot partition is mounted R/O in recovery mode, so you manually have to flash the boot.img of the custom ROM in FASTBOOT USB mode.
Gaining S-OFF is another form of 'unlocking' the bootloader and giving you full access to all of the partitions as well as the radio. S-OFF by itself does not necessarily provide your apps with root access. That is dependent on the ROM that is installed.

Oops, yes, you're right! S-off would need to roll back to Gingerbread, while rooting doesn't need. I mixed it up :silly:

CyanVIVO 10.1 is amazingly fast and smooth. Although, don't expect the same battery life as sense, as cm is not optimized for or phone.

Uh no, the download link is still there. Nevertheless its still a great ROM with virtually no bugs so the only thing you could be improving is battery life and performance and if you still want more then you would be very greedy to do so because it already performs well in both.

Nup your argument doesn't work cause VilleC2 (One S with snapdragon s3) has JB Sense
It has the exact same chipset as the Sensation but runs at a higher clock. Its got a linux 3.4 kernel with JB Sense from HTC so it definitely supports it.

Good evening! I apologize if this question is already answered but I could not find, if so, please forgive! The Renovate ROM 4.1 clearly shows Sprint as an Option and during install it has a button for Sprint but at the end just before reboot, it says the Sprint kernel failed. Am I missing something. It won't reboot and I have to force back to Recovery and restore Old Rom. Rom looks great so I would really like to try but can't seem to find the issue. Thanks again for your time!! Mike
I doesn't work for sprint phones, only flash roms from the sprint one forum
From My TweakedOut ONE
Actually the 4.1 version works perfectly on sprint, make sure you are flashing the right version. Saw some posts where some could no longer find it, so maybe you are flashing the 4.2. The 4.2 will boot and run just fine with TL's kernel, but no radio, no data. Don't mess with that one for now.
Really enjoyed the 4.1, but moved away since development moved to 4.2
Sent from Taptalk on HTC One on some awesome custom Rom!
Thank you! I guess I am just confused, I was looking at the change log version 4.1 but I assume you are speaking of moving from Android 4.1 to Android 4.2?? Anyway, the only version available fails to load the Sprint Boot image at the very end of the install so I guess that's my warning to stay away. Thanks much!! I will try some others that specifically say Sprint. Thanks again!!

theres no source for sense 5 android 4.2.2 on sprint. The aroma installer that has the sprint option for the renovate rom was for android 4.1.2 sense 5. currently theres talk that sprint might skip the 4.2.2 update straight to 4.3
I would prefer to post in the specific thread, but I'm not allowed (too few messages!!).
My question: I have installed an old version (Sense 5.5) of Eragon rom. Now I would like to install the newest version (Sense 6). Is it possible to flash some additional stock apps. like FM Radio, like it was possible before? I ask that, because in the OP of Eragon thread it's written, that those additional stock apps are for Sense 5.5 only.
Maybe someone can help me. Otherwise at least one more message on my acount!

To say the truth, it's not my own phone, but my daughter's phone. She isn't very eager for to much experiments. With version 38.5 the phone is working very well. My daughter likes to hear music with the good old FM Radio. Better to wait until the apps are adapted for Sense 6.
I noticed there's no cm rom in the development section. I wanted to know if we can flash there general Cm12 rom from there website cause I can't find any sprint version anywhere.

Keep in mind that our lockscreen will say NO SIM CARD--SPRINT, and the built in messaging app will not work.
Not sure what it is, and someone made a fix for the no sim thing on my old device. but for the texting you will need to use a third party app.

I assume you mean pure android? Have you tried the Google Play Edition? (GPE) posted in android development?

Yea I tried that ROM it was great I loved it but since I have a Harmon Kardon edition m8 when I played music with the screen off the music would slow down so I got off of that ROM. I read through pages looking for a solution but nothing worked so went back to sense.

You will have similar problems with CM roms. Look for the HK asdp files, you might be able to flash them on top of any rom. I haven't tried, but last night when I used CM12 the music sounded like garbage anyway. I have since stuck to HK roms, but they are all Sense. If you find anything, post back.

I mean adsp.
And here is a good place to start/continue.

first thing I notice is that it says must be s-off or you will brick. Also, if it requires s-off, it might be altering firmware to match HK, but you already have that being an HK device unless you did the conversion to a regular M8 or GPE. Just take a few and read that thread. (it is for verizon so read carefully)
I found the adsp files for HK but the thread says not flashable for aosp roms

I thought that might be the case, those files modify the firmware, so I can see why they wouldn't matter on AOSP unless the rom specifically has a use for them. I am sure you can run the regular or the dev edition ruu and install an aosp rom without sound issues. But you would need to be s-off.
