I will keep everything to myself from now on.
RELOCK BOOTLOADER
Code:
fastboot oem lock
reboot to fastboot again, and it should say **RELOCKED** at the top
To re-unlock your bootloader, you will need to run:
Code:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
just like the first time you unlocked it
removed.
i am done. thank you
been through all the issues and sorted them out
will provide help if needed
I can't seem to remember how to unlock? i still have the .bin from the first time, just couldn't remember what to do. Sorry! lol

Alternate Instructions
Please note: this will not work on the RAIDER / Holiday -- only the HTC Vivid for ATT.
The reason is that this requires a HBOOT update, which is specific to the phone, and is signed per carrier.
Copy VIVID_ICS_OTA_ROOTED_CWM.zip to your external SD card
From CWM, flash the VIVID_ICS_OTA_ROOTED_CWM.zip
Put the PH39IMG.zip on your SD card, then reboot to fastboot
Re-lock your bootloader with fastboot, then reboot back into HBOOT
Flash the PH39IMG.zip from HBOOT
Remove PH39IMG.zip from SD card (or remove the SD card so that you can enter fastboot)
Enter fastboot again, and re-unlock bootloader
To get CWM re-installed you can either: a) fastboot flash recovery again OR b) Head to my thread and download the update PH39IMG clockwork installer, put that on your external SD, and boot to HBOOT then install it.

Going back to stock?
Right now, going back to stock Gingerbread or even ICS shouldn't be that hard.
There are two methods:
Restoring to Gingerbread
This can be accomplished by flashing a special PH39IMG.zip
It will restore system, boot, and recovery all back to factory shipping stock.
HBOOT will not be downgraded (not possible).
Go here for instructions/downloads: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23242239#post23242239
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Restoring to ICS
This can also be accomplished, but it will be a two-step process.
First, you would use CWM to install a (soon to be created) update.zip that would install an unrooted stock ICS rom.
Then you will install a PH39IMG.zip that will remove clockwork and flash boot back to stock also.

I'm very excited cant wait to see how battery life is!
And again thank you PG
And thank you every single person who helped make this possible
Is the boot image flashed when we flash the firmware or do we need to fastboot flash the boot.img that's in the Rom zip?

I would like to know as to how can i backup stock recovery? Bcoz, i wish to go S-off and unlocked via Revone method, then flash TWRP, flash a few mods, and then get back to stock recovery , s-off, locked bootloader. Is that all possible. Does a nandroid backup, backup's stock recovery as well???
Thanks in advance guys.
You can't do a nandroid without custom recovery so that is out of the picture. OTA zip files however contain the recovery file you need.

If you're still on stock recovery at the moment - go into fastboot and command:
fastboot boot name_of_your_custom_recovery.img
This will just boot into custom recovery without flashing it. Do a backup and it will backup your stock recovery.

You'll need to download either CWM or TWRP. You can rename the download if you want to something like cwm.img or twrp.img to make it easier.
Once the backup is done it will be on your phones internal storage in the clockworkmod or TWRP folder - depending which one you choose to boot. Just copy it to your PC.

One question though... i bought this phone as a used, and it was Tampered and Relocked. When I selected the recovery option, it booted the phone to somewhat stock like recovery, and then after some process, the phone rebooted, and the phone was totally Factory Reset.... everything in the storage was gone too..... so is there an way to check if it is indeed a stock recovery, or this is the normal behaviour of stock recovery...?
You need to unlock your bootloader before doing anything with custom recovery. Use Revone or the official HTC Dev method

this method of just booting a custom recovery used to work with OLDER hboot versions. but it doesn't work with newer hboots. my hboot version is 1.54.0000 and when I use the command mentioned above, my bootloader menu just freezes!! guess I'll have to look for the OTA file then to find the stock bootloader!

Not sure if it helps as I was still on 1.44 HBoot, but when I tried the command while the bootloader was locked, my bootloader would also freeze and I had to do a hard reset. Once I unlocked my bootloader, the boot command worked.

first of all, you must have your bootloader unlocked in order to boot/flash a custom recovery. you can't do so if your bootloader is locked. and secondly, yeah, I also had the boot command worked out before I had the 1.54 Hboot. I guess this one doesn't allow 'just' booting a custom recovery!
I have a friend who tried flashing a rom on this HTC One with S-ON. The phone is now relocked and "tampered" but I have been trying to return it to stock so it will actually boot. It just hangs on the HTC screen for now. The version is 1.26.502.12 Hboot 1.44 but the RUU for ATT doesn't work at all; gives me the error 132 "signature error". I know this is the correct RUU, as when it says it will update to xxx version, it's the same exact version as what's on there (1.26.502.12).
Have been searching long and far for an answer, and have tried locating a ruu in the form of a .zip file, but have returned with no such luck.

Its not the correct ruu for the phones cid, which will be CWS__001 or something similar. What's wrong with the phone that you need to ruu? You can either;
Find the correct RUU.
S-off the phone, change the cid, and flash any ruu of your choosing.
Re-unlock, re-flash custom recovery, and re-flash the rom.
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It won't boot because it's relocked with a custom recovery. Unlock again, flash the stock recovery from the RUU, and relock, and you'll be stock.

I have it unlocked and it had TWRP. I pulled the .zip from the RUU from the /local/temp/f3823848f (you get it), and tried running the fastboot commands:
fasboot erase cache
fastboot rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip rom.zip
This works up until the flashing of the zip, which results in "ERROR: could not clear input pipe; result -536870163< waiting for device >".
How would I go about getting the stock recovery from the RUU?
edit: I originally had it unlocked but relocked it so I could run the .exe for the RUU.

Well the phone tried to install a custom rom (trick droid) without S-OFF, so now it completely won't boot past the HTC screen. I have problems with mounting the cache, but finally worked that kink out. I can't s-off the phone without it booting can I?
You do not need s-off to flash a rom on the one. He probably flashed a bad zip. Reflash TWRP, wipe everything. Adb push the ROM.zip and flash it.

I was reading where you could, as it's the stock .zip for your phone (assuming you had the correct one). My problem still is lingering. I have stock recovery installed and it's relocked, still can't manage to get the RUU to correctly read my model.
I posted some pictures, 1 containing the information about the device while the other is the window showing how it matches up.
Xartic, you should first read tutorials on how to flash something. Here on the forum are some. You can also sideload a custom Rom from the forum. Like Viper one

If you can't mount cache partition then the recovery will not work correctly.
I get the same problem few days ago when erasing all partitions.
Try to format cache partition from recovery. I've done it many times until it accept it.
It seems I format it in the wrong format.
If you have "cache mount error" when in recovery, then I don't think flashing a ROM will work (and when it works, the ROM will not boot anyway).
Get rid of this problem first.

Actually I did read and know how to flash roms, but the problem isn't that I didn't read, that my friend jumped the gun on flashing without knowing HTC and their s-on situation . The problem is that security still remains on and the phone won't accept the RUU to return it to stock.. I understand the phone is unlocked now but when I attempt the RUU I relock it with no positive results. I resorted to the stock recovery to see if that would help with the RUU, but it doesn't.

No errors whatsoever, I let it sit on the screen for about 5 minutes then waited on the HTC screen for about 15-20.
I just now flashed a stock odexed rom and it's doing the same thing, except it doesn't show "This build is for...." at the bottom. I sideloaded it and had no errors.
Also, after I sideload these roms, I have to reflash the recovery each time.

Any help?
Okay, so I have an HK m8 on sprint, FW 1.54.654.13.
I was originally on Viper 1.8.0, but wanted to upgrade to 2.0.0, so I went back to my stock backup, with the aforementioned software version.
After restoring that backup I realized I needed to also flash a stock recovery in order to take the OTA. So I flashed the 'Stock Recovery From 1.54.651.8 OTA' over adb from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2736048
So, since flashing that recovery my phone seems to not have a recovery anymore; infact, it constantly reboots after about 1 minute of being booted to system. When I boot into recovery, I get a symbol of a phone with an "!" in a triangle over it.
Where did I go wrong? What recovery should I be using? I can re-flash TWRP, but it seems I still get the bootloop, even though it does actually boot into system (which I've never seen happen from a bootloop). It's been like this for 12+ hours, and no amount of searching has helped me out thus far, so I'm hoping someone here could help me out a little.

You could pull the stock recovery from the HK firmware...hopefully that will get you back to normal.
Worse comes to worse run the RUU.
I do not have the recovery.img in my backup. I'm also not S-off, so I think the only way I can upgrade my firmware is through OTA from what I understand, correct? If I could just flash the proper stock recovery I think I would be fine from there?

Yes, I am aware. But on 1.8.0 I did not get an OTA. Maybe because I'll get it after I upgrade my FW. So after RUUing then reinstalling TWRP, if I restore my viper 1.8.0 backup, I can just OTA to 2.0.0?

I tried flashing the full Rom per your suggestion, but after flashing the 2.0.0 Rom, it's like my phone has no OS and can only boot to bootloader or recovery, not system at all.
I also tried extracting the latest hk ruu to the root of my external SD card and running it through bootloader to no avail.
I feel like I'm missing a vital part of information here. I've never really ruu'd before so I'm new to that but I'm pretty stumped on this whole thing.

I feel like I'm missing a vital part of information here. I've never really ruu'd before so I'm new to that but I'm pretty stumped on this whole thing.

get the drivers for your phone + adb, rename the firmware update to firmware.zip, put it in /sdk/platform-tools
put the phone in fastboot, make sure it says fastboot USB and type fastboot devices in terminal to confirm it's connected.
then type in terminal Fastboot oem rebootRUU (capitalization matters.)
your screen will go black with a greyish HTC logo, then type in fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
once it's done doing it's thing type fastboot reboot
this method is pretty much failproof
EDIT: also, if you're flashing ONLY the sprint 2.0.0 update, you'll have to be on capt's twrp 2.7.0.7, otherwise you'll have to flash the full rom, boot into it, reboot into 2.7.1.0, and dirty flash the sprint viper ROM. Hope that helps, cheers >;3

Thanks for the reply! From my understanding, you need to be S-Off for that method, which I am not.
The method I attempted to use is this one, from O.M.J's thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
using 7zip, extract 0P6BIMG.zip to ext sd card
-boot into bootloader
-make sure*hboot*is highlighted, press power button
-it will scan your ext_sd card, then ask if you want to start the update
-press volume up & let it do it's thing...
The problem is, it scans my external SD card just fine but never asks if I want to start the update, nor do I get the option to press volume up etc... I am on captains twrp 2.7.0.7, as I've seen many other users confirm success with this recovery.
Also, I don't see just an update, it seems the Sprint version of the Rom I downloaded is the full rom. I actually did get it to boot once and got this (see screenshot), but it was a dirty flash.

Did you re-lock your bootloader?

download the full one and the sprint one, flash the first, reboot all the way (doubt you have to finish the automatic setup) then reboot into recovery and dirty flash the sprint one without wiping anything. It'll connect to the CDMA network instead of the GSM one with no problems, you don't even need to be on 2.7.0.7
And if it isn't working in HBOOT just go into recovery and adb sideload it, you shouldn't need to be s-off to do that. Enter adb sideload and just type in a terminal adb sideload (filename)
EDIT: idk why but that picture made me lol irl, KEEP CALM AND KANG AWAY
Alright giving that a shot now, thanks
That message is hilarious to me now, but it wasn't at the time xD
Edit: is it safe to dirty flash the first one, coming from 1.8.0? Also no, I haven't relocked my boot loader.

RUU won't run unless you re-lock the bootloader since you are s-on

Ahhh, okay makes sense now. My m7 was s-off and that was the first and last time I ever did a RUU. If I re-lock the boot loader, do I have to go through htcdev again to unlock once more, or will having it locked again not effect root?

fastboot oem relock
should do it
I've posted this in the sprint m7 forums with no help so far. Going fishing here to see if i can get some help
I was updating my m7spr to the latest cm12 nightly, which i've been doing about once a week, and all of a sudden I cannot update apps from the play store or install any apks from my storage. I go to factory reset or uninstall some apps to make some room, and the apps won't uninstall and my recovery, TWRP, is gone. It flashes the TWRP logo and then restarts. I am currently at the bootloader screen unlocked s-on and have been trying to fastboot flash everything i can think of from a cm12 rom zip, a stock sense zip, a twrp recovery zip and img. nothing is working. I have tried to relock my bootloader and run a RUU, from the latest RUU_M7_WL_L50_SENSE60_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_6.23.651.6_Radio_1.01.20.1225_CNV_CNV_SPCS_4.38_003_release_425282_signed_2 to an earlier version Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_1.29.651.10_RUU and that didn't work either. sat at the htc/ruu screen for a half hour with no result.
I am at a loss as to what to do next and what will work to get my damn phone back to working order.
My h-boot is 1.56.0000 and again i am S-ON
Thanks in advance for your assistance
