[HELP] Possible Bricked Phone

XDA-
I could really use your help. Here are the details:
Bootloader unlocked/tampered
Hboot 1.54
S-ON
TMO US CID (TMOB010 - which I guess is Google Edition? This is supposed to be the TMO version)
SD card won't mount in CWM
Can't sideload
OS 3.06.1700.10
What is going on? I'm getting really frustrated. Flashed the latest RUU to try and go back to stock. Hboot went from 1.44 to 1.54. Made things worse. I also get a non-root message from CWM when I try to reboot? Is my phone corrupted? Any hope for getting this fixed?
TIA,
D6E
P.S. How do I file a warranty claim with HTC?

what RUU did you flash?? Is your phone a Google Edition or just one from T-Mobile??

I don't recall the RUU. Latest edition which I think might have been from EU (makes no sense). My phone is TMO branded. For some reason when I tried to go back to stock the TMO RUU.exe wouldn't work. I did relock as recommended. As soon as I used the GE version of the RUU it flashed successfully. I have no idea how that switch happened.
Did I flash the wrong RUU? Why all the CWM errors all of a sudden? Corrupt memory perhaps?
EDIT: I think I flashed a custom ATT RUU or a custom Nandroid. Is that possible?

this is the latest RUU for T-Mobile phones.

[Q] RUU update: stuck @ 5% checking headers

HTC One
Tamperd
Relocked
2.24.401.8
S-ON
Cidnum HTC_Y13
Hboot: 1.54.0
I'm using this RUU:
RUU M7 UL K44 SENSE55 MR HTC Europe 4.19.401.9 R Radio 4A.23.3263.28 10.38r.1157.04L Release 353069 Signed 2-1
I double checked my fastboot connection, every thing seems to be working just fine.
Everytime i try to run it it get stuck at checking headers (5%)
what am i doing wrong ?

I think there is something wrong with that ruu. I have not been able to run the 4.x RUU

It does actually work, just seems very sensitive to OS, USB ports, drivers, (possibly even locale), etc.
Recommend you use a plain vanilla Win7 PC with USB2 port.

from HTC One

I had this exact problem trying to go back from 5.11.401.10. When i extracted the rom.zip, fastboot came back with remote: 02 data length is too large.
I had already unlocked with HTCDev, flashed TWRP and s-off. i just wanted a stock ruu to go back to sense 5.5. In the end, i found TeHashX has created a twrp flash here: Link I flashed that without root, with radio and recovery and I'm back to stock. You'll probably need to be s-off for this but I'm not sure. I kept s-off and the unlocked bootloader.
Ps. You can remove the tampered with a rooted rom in the process.

I have also been unable to use any of the 4.xx RUU... They worked once but none of them work now. Anyway I just wanted to say I also created a Guru Reset for the 5.21.502.2 (AT&T) here >> http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358545274 to go along with the files posted by @TeHashX

The only thing i can think of was the hboot prevents it now but i wasnt going to play with that. I personally went to 4.xx to get away from sense 6

Is there any other maybe older stock ROM i can try ?

I tried 1.29.401.x and that failed too. There was a note with the download saying you need to flash hboot 1.44 which i didn't bother with.

[Q] update issue

Hello all I am a noob getting into the game, I am trying to get my m7 to update with no luck. I have an AT&T branded One running on versio 1.26.502.15 . I have tried all the little tricks to get it to find them, but nadda. I have been reading into all the resets, RUUs, and OTAs and honestly I'm just more confused. From what I read about manually installing OTAs, I haven't been able to find the right one to upgrade my version. I just want to get up to date with Android and Sense. If anybody could just point me in the right direction I would be so thankful. If there's any other info needed I'll get it up here.

do you have adb and fastboot installed on your computer? If yes, post the output of fastboot getvar all except the imei # and the serialno #
at&t phone must be connected to the at&t network to receive ota update, are you on at&t?
manually installing ota update require s-off, your phone is currently s-on. good new is its "pretty easy" to s-off on hboot 1.44, ok maybe not that easy for a new user but you should be able to s-off if you need to by following revone s-off guide.
if you are not on at&t network:
easiest solution (imo):
unlock the bootloader (this void warranty)
flash twrp recovery 2.6.3.3
flash the guru reset rom 5.12.502.2
or
more complicated but better (imo):
unlock bootloader
flash twrp recovery 2.6.3.3
root
s-off using revone
flash the latest ruu (4.18.502.7)
manually flash ota updates from 4.18.502.7 to 5.12.502.2

Thank you for the info I don't have adb fastboot installed guess I'll need to start there, I am using the new cricket gsm network which if I'm correct uses AT&T towers but I guess that's why I was unable to get the updates because I'm not actually on AT&T. Will I still need to get s-off with the first solution or not ? Thanks again for the help, I'll get on it and let you know how it goes.

Could you tell me where to find the 5.12.502.2 reset Rom, I went to HTC guru and could not find it in the list, also what are your thoughts on the twrp 2.7, I read a few comments about it and seemed like people were having trouble with it on their One's, I wondered if it would be better to have the new version or if I should just stick with the other one.

better to stick with 2.6.3.3 or 2.6.3.4 unless you want to experiment. there is a charging bug with 2.7.0.0 and it looks like there are also some other bugs with 2.7.1.0 for flashing roms, not sure if it was solved in 2.7.1.1. use 2.6.3.3 or .3.4 and youll be fine.
and no, you dont need s-off to use the reset rom. but a reset rom will not update all the firmware, you'll get an updated rom(software), on the hardware side, only recovery and radio will be updated (if you choose to flash stock radio and recovery at the reset rom installation). hboot will not be updated using this solution.
do a nandroid backup of your current config, just in case you need to restore if something goes wrong.

After lots and lots of research into this before doing I've decided to go with viperone custom Rom, if I understand it right I won't have to mess with s-off for this,please correct me if I'm wrong. But I have found some conflicting instructions, I read somewhere that I will have to copy the boot.img from the Rom and flash it before flashing the Rom then others without that step, so I'm confused, I wanna male sure I do this right the first time. Also are there any files that I need to have updated before flashing a 4.4 sense 6 custom Rom or will it all be included in the Rom?

Hi there
Been a long time since I've posted and hope I'm in the right place. Did a search for my question and wound up here.
My phone is stock and s-on, I haven't done anything to it, it's exactly the same as when it came out the box, but I haven't been able to update the software in settings>about>software updates for a while now, it just keeps coming back with download unsuccessful. Any ideas how I can sort this, or do it another way?
Thanks in advance

[Q] Downgrade HBoot/firmware for repair?

Hi,
I want to send my HTC One in for repair, so first I need to restore it to stock.
However, I recently updated my firmware (and hboot) to the new 4.4.3 base (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2793539) so right now I am (s-off) on hboot 1.57.0000... Is this a problem when sending it in since this firmware isn't officially released yet (or is it)? And if it is, is it possible to downgrade my hboot?
Also, must I flash the firmware WITH the red warning before going S-on and locking the bootloader again?
I have flashed the stock odexed ROM, boot.img and recovery from the ARHD site (http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.nl/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html).
Thanks in advance for any help!

No that firmware isn't officially released yet, it's still in testing stages so you will have to downgrade your firmware to 5.??.401.? Lucky for you this firmware comes with hboot 1.57 however if you have flashed a modded hboot/firmware ie to remove red text, then you will need to flash an official one, just find the official firmware package and use that, it comes with the hboot inside it, if you s-on with modded firmware or hboot you will have an instant brick.
The arhd site your got the Rom from should have the firmware package too.

Great, thanks! I will flash the original firmware in a sec, but the most recent RUU I can find is this one: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...0-38r-1157-04l_release_353069_signed_2-1-exe/
And I am not sure if that is also based on hboot 1.57 and because of that, if I am able to flash this RUU. Currently I am downloading it but the download speed is terrible, I will report back after I tried.

Or are you saying that I can flash the stock firmware 5.xx.401.xx on top of the current 6.xx firmware? I thought that wouldn't be possible because I'm currently on a higher firmware version but I'll give it a shot!

If you are s-off, you can flash or downgrade anything, however I would personally flash the matching firmware to the ruu that you are downloading, however, the firmware and hboot will be included in the ruu and be downgraded when you run the ruu, so just run it, once it's finished and you boot the phone, you can ota up to the latest version.

You may have to remove the TAMPERED flag before running the ruu and also lock your bootloader, not relocked as the ruu will replace which ever recovery you ha e on your phone for the stock one, sometimes the ruu requires a locked bootloader whether s-off or s-on.
Once it's finished, boot the phone once and then back into bootloader and check the hboot version, if it is lower than the version you have on there now then you'll know you have stock hboot and should be safe to s-on, however like I said before, make sure your locked and tampered has gone before setting s-on (not sure if s-on is required for warranty)

At the moment I don't have a tampered flag, it only says 'unlocked'. I'll try to lock the bootloader before starting the RUU. Do you know if the Tampered flag will return if I S-ON my M7 after completing the RUU?

Unfortunately I don't know that, there's been some reports it comes back after you s-on not after the ruu, I think it's HTC 's way of catching you out, others say it's been fine, are you sending it to HTC or your operator ?
---------- Post added at 04:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:12 PM ----------
However , if you've had s-off with that phone before, chances are you'll get it again, you'll just have to do whatever you did before to get it, then go back to stock again, and send it s-off.

[Q] How to Debrand HTC One

I have a HTC One on the EE network in the UK and I am still currently on Android 4.3 and Sense 5.5, they haven't bothered to release Android 4.4 yet and I have no hope that they will release Sense 6.
So, I would like to know how to go about changing my EE branded phone into an Unlocked International Version so that I can receive OTA updates direct from HTC.
Current CID: ORANG001
Current Hboot: 1.55

first of all you need to unlock your bootloader and s-off your phone, debrand is not possible with s=on
the you would need to change your cid to something like HTC__001 or developer edition cid, one fastboot command required to do this.
and then run the correct RUU for those cid's and your done.
its quite easy to do, the hardest part is getting s-off, however you may be ok on 1.55 hboot, try rumrunner, read the instructions and download the required file here: http://rumrunner.us/

Do I need custom recovery? If so which is best.
And do I need to have a custom ROM installed to gain s-off or can s-off be achieved on my current EE branded ROM?

nope its not required for either, you should be able to s-off on stock rom, if you get an error or for some reason it fails, then you MAY have to flash a custom recovery and custom rom / kernel.
The RUU's will put you back to fully stock anyway in the end.

If the s-off does cause an error or it fails, can this cause my device to get bricked?
And by fully stock do you mean that the RUU turns s-on and locks my boot loader? (just in case I need to send my phone in for repair).

no your phone wont brick
and no the ruu wont turn your phone s-on, you will need to lock your bootloader before running the RUU, but that's one simple command too, but only after s-off.
all you need right now is to make sure you have the drivers installed and that your device is detected in windows both when booted into a rom and on the bootloader screen.

not really something they will check to be honest, but if you s-on and you've played about with your phone down the line, like flashed a modified firmware or hboot, you will get an instant brick, if your hboot version is too high you will get the tampered flag back, or if you make a mistake along the way and the fix requires s-off, it will be very difficult to get again.

So, is the following step by step list correct.
1. Unlock boot loader
2. Get s-off via rumrunner
3. Change CID
4. Lock boot loader
5. Run RUU
And, I am currently on 4.3 and Sense 5.5, so can I go straight to the sense 6 and Android 4.4 RUU, or do I have to install the sense 5.5 and Android 4.4 RUU first.
