HI guys, I recently bough an international HTC ONE from ebay, but the thing is it is on very old software, ie, Android 4.2.2 with sense 5 (software number: Maximus 710.0.0.) I wanted to update it myself so first thing i have do is to update the recovery from a very old CRM to latest TWRP(2.6.6) and to do that I download GOO manager, but before i intalled by GOO manager i decided to check if it is truly rooted and turns out it is not rooted (used root checker to check root)although it has a custom rom and a custom recovery! So depending on my above given situation what can i do to get root access>install TWRP>install insert coin sense 6 rom . If anyone can give step by step tutorial for all this then their help will be truly appreciated! (if you want any info about my phone for the tutorial then please ask for it)

Post a fastboot getvar all minus imei no & serial no. Also a screen shoot of your bootloader to be sure your bootloader is unlocked.

Hello there
I ordered a 32GB HTC One which is coming in about an hour and since I had a HTC One X before, I know that installing ROMs and such isn't as easy as it is on my Samsung Galaxy SIII. I am pretty sure the CID of my HTC One is going to be HTC__J15 like the One X (since that's for the whole Middle East) and so I was wondering what the latest JellyBean is for my device? Is it 4.1.2 or 4.2.2? And speaking of which, I found this website posted on this forum:
http://bugsylawson.com/files/category/49-m7/
But unfortunately I don't understand that codes affiliated with regions and such and any help would be much appreciated.
The phone I ordered is slightly used, only for 4 days, and with local warranty but I would like to install (or re-install if there's no newer JellyBean) the software so I can set it up as a new phone, and I am guessing that's done using the RUU, correct? And if so, which one should I use? I would like to completely format the device and set it up from the start.
And one final thing, would someone be able to link me to an easy rooting guide? And do I get the unlock token using HTC's developer section of the website and use fastboot like I did with HTC One X?
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your time.

First of all I would just do a factory reset, assuming it is a factory default rom, and then leave it for a week or two to get used to it before going down the route of unlocking etc. Read through the One forums to learn all you can before customising.
There is a good guide here for unlocking, rooting, etc manually http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
A useful All-in-One toolkit to guide you through the process here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2183942
Look through the One Android Development forum and you will find several custom Roms available which would be suitable for the International Version of the One http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2119
You will need a custom rom as once rooted and unlocked you won't be able to use an RUU nor will you be able to get HTC or carrier OTA updates.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. I am going to use the phone as it is for a while and see how things work out. I would really like to install the bulletproof kernel which enables the HTC logo as a capacitive button because I am not liking the idea of the two buttons - I am just too used to having three.
The One is as easy to root and ROM as any other device. You DO NOT need to be concerned with the CID or RUU if you download Mikes stock 4.2.2 ROM. Its dead stock (with the option to root) and works without needing to change the CID or flash an RUU

Yeah I have used Android Revolution HD on several devices before and it is the perfect ROM. I already unlocked the bootloader and am in the process of installing recovery as well as downloading and installing ARHD. I was able to locate the Bulletproof kernel which enables the HTC logo as a menu button and it seems like the installation is done from recovery, very simple, is that really the case or is there more to it?

Its easy to flash the kernel but beware as these kernels are not based on the newest or even second newest source so it will decrease performance slightly when you compare apples to apples

Hi everyone...I bought my HTC One Dual 802d aka m7c_dwg from Flipkart...It was a serious pain in the A** to make the 1st SIM slot work after installing custom ROM which was Chienese RUU..
Here are some steps how to go for it..
Pre -requisites:
Your phone should be rooted
You should have very basic knowledge as to how fastboot and adb works..
1)Enable USB- Debugging mode on your phone..
2)Open command prompt on your windows machine
a)type
adb shell
su
setprop persist.radio.simlock.enable 0
reboot
voilaa...u have just made it work...It has worked for the Russian,Chienese,Indian,Indonesian versions model 802d or m7c_DWG...
Pree Thanks if that helped..

Push the Chinese recovery through fastboot .. When you'll go for reboot it will ask if you want to root.. Its the easiest method . If you have any problem then ask and i'll share the recovery..
All the Chinese roms fir 802d will work but i'll suggest that don't go for that.. Indian RUU is the best till now .

Hi Aditya,
A complete guide /tutorial on rooting and installing custom rom on the Indian version htc one 802d will be great. Looking forward to your post on it tomorrow.
How to root HTC 802d
Hi friends...
Here it is, a tutorial on how to root Indian Version HTC 802d
I Take no credit whatsoever of the recovery files..They solely belong to their creators..Thanks to the person who created them..
You are doing all this at your own risk..I cannot be held liable for any damage that u do to your device.
This was the method that i followed and everything worked..It should ideally work for you as well
Make sure you have the latest drivers installed on your system and check if fastboot and adb are working properly..Tutorial for that can be easily found on the internet..
Attached are two recoveries out of which recover.zip has Chinese recovery which will help in rooting and the other one is TWRP which can be for later use..
1)Boot your phone to fastboot mode..
2)open command promt go to the folder where all the files fastboot ,recoveries(download and unzip) are placed.
3)Make sure fastboot is working properly.
4)If everything is workin as intended then type the command(in fastboot mode)
fastboot flash recovery recovery1.img
5)This will push the recovery to your phone..
6)Go to bootloader then reboot into recovery.
7)This is a recovery which will be in Chinese language..Dont worry its just for this time...Select first option (in English it is reboot system now)
8)It will prompt to root ..select yes wala option..u can easily make out as to which is the option which says yes.
9)let the phone reboot...the phone is now rooted...
10)Now if you want TWRP recovery in English follow steps 1-4 and in the 4th step write command
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
11)Reboot recovery to check if everythings fine...
12)Once you have a rooted phone and a custom TWRP recovery then you can very much install any custom rom from recovery like u do on a samsung...
Btw aditya, does ur phone have purple tint camera issue?

If your HTC ONE bootloader is locked first you need to unlock it by going to HTC developer site. Select unlock bootloader and then"other devices".

Dear all,
Any idea about LOGO2WAKE, LOGO2MENU, SCREEN2TAP WAKE etc for INDIA HTC ONE 802D. I tried elemental x for M7 and it failed and left with a black screen. Luckily had the twrp backup of the factory provided rom and so restored the device.
Missing the hackable features of the single sim INDIA HTC ONE M7..
For any of you who needs root please find my below attachment. Paste it on your SD CARD. Use cwm (if you are chinese ) or else TWRP and install the zip from sd internal or external....:cyclops:

Hi nitin,
Ya you need to have unlocked bootloader for that. Plus you need to have custom recovery (TWRP for the sake of english). I hate TWRP cuz I was well accustomed with CWM recoveries. Unfortunately CWM recovery for the time being is only available in chinese .Anyways you need to follow the procedure provided by Aditya above. After flashing recovery1.img (which is CWM recovery in chinese). You will get the option to root it just after selecting the chinese option to reboot. You can figure it out when the option to root will be asked that will be written in english... Go to fastboot again and flash recovery.img now (which is TWRP in english).
Once you flashed TWRP recovery. Put my Root.zip to your internal SD CARD. Go back to TWRP recovery. Choose Install. Select the Root.zip and once completed installing. Reboot to Sense 5. Voila you will see a superuser icon. Now wherever an app needs root access just grant the root access. All set and done...... Enjoy.
I will soon post the links of custom roms for our device. The support is in very early stages as 802d with Google Play is only available for India. Europe editions 802d are yet to be launched. Fingers crossed. :good:
Yes you can update to 4.3 when custom roms would be available. Using the TWRP you can flash 4.3 custom roms, or rom utility update (RUU) will hopefully be launched by HTC to get the stock sense xperience of 4.3 Jellybean.

I have come from motorola > moto glam and droid razr and simple utilities work for those phones. I have a sony tab and i never needed to unlock bootloader for root.
here in HTC, the terminology and things r so confusing like ruu, twrp, etc etc.
also with dual sim version there is hardly any development which does not makes things earlier. you need to search for info which adds to the confusion.
I need to do some serious reading to succeed with HTC, lol.
can you offer some pointers. :laugh:

Hi Guys,
I rooted my HTC One previously but I wanted to update my phones android software so I can't much remember what I did, but
I tried to unroot it to get back to stock but I don't think I did this successfully.
My HTC One android version is 4.2.2
HTC Sense version is 5.0
am i right in thinking there are more up to date versions on the three UK network for my HTC ONE? But every time
i click check for software updates on my phone there aren't any that appear??
I'm really new to this, thank god i didn't brick my phone when i first rooted it, if i could i'd love to get
back to stock but I tried with no success, i really want to have an updated phone without having to
mess around with it anymore.
I believe i have attached an image more more information such as my baseband and kernel version.
could someone please give me step by step instructions on how to go back to stock so i can receive
updates without these issues. Thanks in advance guys
Kind regards
you cannot get updates with unlocked bootloader

If I was you I would look to s-off your device, that way you can always have the latest rom version from XDA you can sometimes wait a long time for Networks to release the latest version to update over the air.
There are some very nice stock roms out there but if you don't wait to take the risk you need to unroot, restore stock recovery and relock your device I believe.
If you had made a nandroid backup before rooting you could have restored to the nandroid stock rom and simply restored the recovery and relocked.
Hey guys. Well I have an HTC One from Sprint and I wanted to sim unlock it. I didn't know that with android 4.4 kitkat it is impossible (so I've heard on diferrent places) and can't get a prompt for the unlock code when I insert a diferrent sim card other than Sprint. Turns out I needed to root my HTC One to downgrade the android version. I rooted my phone and flashed a 4.2 version on my phone but now I don't have touchscreen functions. I got pissed because everywhere I look for help the instructions are not clear or there is no step-by-step assistance, only a bunch of people saying "go to this site and do this and then download this and blah blah", when I follow the links I just get outdated info with more links to outdated info. So right now I just want my HTC One unrooted but with an android 4.1 or 4.2 stock version but I can't find any accurate, info for dummies. Can anyone help me? I'm kinda desperate by now. If you need any software info about my phone, kernel, radios or things like that just let me know. I'm so tired of searching with no luck that I just want some help step by step like a newborn baby. Thanks in advance!!
Maybe u should try to flash some ROMs like Viper, it will activate ur phone automatically. My sprint htc one is running Viper5.0, and i am using Chinese carrier SIM. The phone works quite well.

between 4.2 and 4.3 the touch firmware changred you need to have 4.3 or above to use touch and your recovery has to be the latest for the m7wls(sprint)example:TWRP 2.6.3.0 I would advise installing a 4.3 rom, if you want to downgrade your firmware to 4.1 you'll have to use an RUU OF THAST VERSION but you need to be s-off to do so.
I forgot to mention that the ROM I flashed was ViperBoy's Sprint HTC One 1.29.651.10 stock Odexed. I have TWRP 2.6.3.0 flashed as well. I am S-On right know.
The reason why I want a ROM below version 4.3 is to be able to unlock my sim with the unlock code. With 4.4 I can't make that happen because there is no prompt for entering the unlock code.

Hey people, I recently bought a Sprint HTC one M8 and the seleer gave me a unlocked one done with sim unlock helper apo. It is S-off , bootloader is unloacked and SuperCID is present so ilI want to update it to 6.0 M. It has KK 4.4.3 preinstalled. I have a number of doubts to clear-
1. Will my phone be locked again if I flash acustom rom?*
2. As I am superCID , so do I need to flash only custom roms from 'Sprint htc one m8' or can i flash a international rom too??
3. If I update my phone through RUU which the bad boyz have provided so will my twrp will be replaced with stock recovery?
4. Please just check and let me know whether the BAD BOYZ rom for Sprint HTC M8 is rooted already and also if it may network lock my phone. As I am in India can I be able to use it with any gsm sim as now currently I m doing.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
1. No
2. Yes, you can only flash ROM's compatible for Sprint.
3. Yes, the stock recovery will be installed.
4. The ROM is rooted already. Flashing it should leave your phone unlocked.
Thank you so much brother. I have few more questions please clear those. Please **note** this My phones name is m8_whl , which means I have a Harmon/kordon version.
1 - So if my phone will be back to the stock then after flashing the latest firmware and RUU still my phone would be unlocked? I m stressing on this question because some noobs here have said me that it would again become locked.
2 - How will I flash BAD BOYZ ROM then? I will have to flash TWRP recovery again?
3. This is the Rom what I want to install - [/URL][/URL] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729170
4- This is the firmware and RUU what I want to flash. Can you please tell which will be best to installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
5 - I have done SuperCID, some people said that I will be able to flash any rom in my device now. Is it true?
