Return to stock... - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If I return my UK, unlocked, m7 to stock and wait for the "official" sense 6 update, should I still be able to re unlock bootloader so I can reflash ARHD70 ? The reason I ask is I think I read somewhere, recently, that someone couldn't unlock their bootloader after an hboot/firmware update.
I want to get latest firmware, when it's released, but don't want to go "s-off".
Cheers

If you will change rom, you have to do a full wipe in aroma or in recovery before the flash

To flash a custom rom, you need to unlock your device via htc-dev. I'll put a tutorial video link below.
If you already have the 4.2.2 update, don't worry about new firmware for now. Otherwise, you don't need S-OFF depending on your CID to flash the custom 4.2.2 rom and firmware.
To do a rom swap, you don't need new firmware unless it's a newer base which also got a firmware update from htc

I think is better for him use only the revone tool if he have the 1.44 hboot!
So he can unlock the bootloader and go s-off
Which hboot do you have?

So, turn off your phone and longpress power + vol- and when it reboot in bootloader read the hboot.
After reboot in android with the "reboot" line, for move the cursor you have to use the vol buttons

I think it's not needed, but I'm not 100% sure on this one.
I used 4.3 firmware on 4.2.2 before, but it was a custom pack (this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2391611) so I'm not sure if the official one would work

Did you installed a custom recovery? I dont understand that part with your 4.3 ota, you should have downloaded and installed your ota update before unlcoking your bootloader
and wich thread are you using for the rooting guide?
please quote me id you want me to reply back
I did the unlock bootloader before I get OTA update.
I search on YouTube to unlock your bootloader and installed recover usually they reference from xda.
Thanks for your help

There is no need to relock. If you are still on your stock ROM, just reflash stock recovery and you are good to go.

Root/recovery

Hey guys just received brand new HTC one out of the box. Just wondering quickest method of root right now and what people are using for their recoveries. Yes I have researched but I see a lot of things out there. I'm sure one of your guys response would be quicker. If you could post links for root and a good recovery that would be appreciated. I'm on 4.2.2 thanks in advance.

I assume you have the international unlocked One, not any of the U.S. carrier branded Ones.
1) Go to htcdev.com, create an account. Choose the option to unlock the bootloader. You need the fastboot drivers. Easy to find
2) Once you're bootloader unlocked, flash TWRP recovery from this link:
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
3) Install SuperSU once u have TWRP(the app will be installed automatically). Run the app
4) You're rooted. Very naize
P.S. I would advise u to S-OFF your phone after rooting it, coz certain ROMs aint compatible with S-ON, ur default. So, before installing the 4.4.2 OTA, flash ARHD 31.6, run the rumrunner tool

Verizon wireless u.s.a and I'm on 4.2.2 and I waited to update to kitkat because I didn't know if there was an exploit for root and stuff like that. Can my bootloader still be unlocked? Keep in mind I'm 100% stock on 4.2.2 I just kind of need to be steered in the right direction on what to do next seeing as though there is an overwhelming amount of mods out for this phone.

Yeah, u need to use rumrunner tool, not the HTC dev unlock.
http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/
Download for Verizon, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRE-REQUISITES CAREFULLY
And, btw, this is not the thread for the Verizon One. Hence, there are no ROMs which support the Verizon variant. Flashing a ROM from the development thread for HTC One WILL BRICK UR PHONE. Make sure u flash ROMs/MODs for the Verizon One from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one
FYI, if u want the most mods/roms, u should have bought the unlocked One

Sunshine may not be compatible with the latest update. Your best bet is to run the RUU that was just released within the last couple of days. That will get you the latest firmware. You do not have to be S-off to run the RUU but you will have to re-lock your bootloader with the command fastboot oem lock. The RUU can be found in OMJ's RUU thread in the development forum.
You may also try downgrading your ROM to the version that matches your firmware version, and then try Sunshine. What is your current radio (baseband) version?

Your radio is actually from 4.4.3... try updating your firmware to 3.30.651.x
After you update your firmware try SunShine again

Probably would be better off flashing one of OMJ's stock rooted 4.4.3 ROM's, honestly, although Sunshine should work on the version you listed. I've seen at least one report of it not working on software version 3.31.

No. I have no WiFi on lollipop. With my current s-on setup on viper, which method and which 3.30 file should I use.
