[Q] HTC One unlocked, tampered, S-ON and custom recovery - Can I do OTA

Hi,
I have an HTC One PN07120. It is unlocked, tampered S-ON, has custom recovery installed, and is running AT&T 4.3 JellyBean stock.
In a few days Sense 6.0 OTA update will become available for my device, so I was wondering if I can just normally run the setup and update my system or I have to relock my device or something?
PLEASE RESPOND

So if I got you right, only thing that matters is that I have stock recovery instead of custom recovery. And how do I do that?

flash stock recovery the same way you have flashed a custom one
Code:

you need the recovery that match your present firmware #

You should be fully stock, including recovery, before taking an OTA, except that you can (and should) stay s-off and unlocked. You may not even get the OTA otherwise.

So I think I have found the stock recovery needed for my device. Now there is a small problem, I have 2 stock recovery files for my device and I do not know wich one to choose because when I typed "fastboot getvar all" I didn't find any information at "version main", just blank space. How should I know wich one to pick?

did you change radio?
hboot 1.55 + MID + CID would indicate you are on 3.xx.502.x version
so i guess: http://d-h.st/D8F or http://d-h.st/6bH would be a suitable recovery, but you need to have your phone's ROM 100% stock

Well, the guy who fixed my phone from a bootloop and bricked state said he has done the s-off, found a suitable stock RUU and installed, then he put S-ON back and unlocked bootloader if I decide to do any mods in the future.

1- If you are 100% stock then Settings -> About should also show your correct version number
2- you rooted the phone, so that may or may not have changed some system files, so OTA may not work
3- once S-Off stay S-Off, my personal opinion
In my humble opinion, three choices really, when it comes to "modding" or not your phone:
A) stay stock and don't mess with it to get OTAs
B) you cannot achieve S-OFF (due to newer hboots, or device problems) -> fine live with an unlocked bootloader, and accept the fact that you cannot install OTAs .... you can however "download and install later" the OTA, then pull it to your phone, and use the signed firmware.zip in it
C) you can achieve S-OFF and want to mod your phone -> then do it, get S-Off and enjoy the freedom (but don't flash things not meant for your phone!! this goes for S-On too)
Of course you're going to say that "but S-Off is dangerous", it's a double edged sword... sometimes you are able save your phone thanks to S-Off, and sometimes you can brick it completely.
But then again, you can easily brick an S-On phone too (especially one that is modded), and much more difficult to save than an S-Off phone.
^^ All that is my personal opinion, and I'm not suggesting you S-Off, but if you want to mod your phone (whether S-On or S-Off), you need to be aware of what may, or may not, go wrong, and have done some reading and research
Good Luck

Well, its not worth it. I wont risk bricking my phone again

That's a tough one... cause even if you manage to pull out the cable, at exactly the right (ie wrong) moment while flashing recovery, it wouldn't affect bootloader... and with a good bootloader (hboot, and some other variables) you should be able to revive your phone.... now mess with hboot, and that's a whole different story!!
As I said, this is my personal opinion, so maybe get some second opinions on the subject... I can only answer on what i've done, seen, experienced, fixed, not fixed, etc.
Maybe someone wiser will add his/her opinion to this

Can I go back to stock using a Windows 8.1 machine? I just checked the guide in your signature and it says use Windows 7. Or is there a Rom for 4.4.3 I can flash? I cannot find anything using Google.

if you want to go back to stock, better to use a windows 7. linux or macos computer not win 8,1. There is many 4.4.3 roms availabe. look in the android development section of this forum. You could try arhd 71.1

I just can't seem to find a stock Rom. I'm happy with the HTC stock Rom the only reason I rooted was to try some HTC one m8 features that could be installed on a rooted m7 phone. I never managed to even try it. Bit stuck because I don't have win 7 , Linux or a Mac os.
Is there nothing I can do at all other than use custom roms? I apologise if I'm being a bit stupid.

Try arhd 71.1 it's like a stock rom with extra tweaks you can enable or not

I think I am just going to leave it. There's no point using ARHD as it is the same 4.4.2 that I have. I only wanted to do the stock update to 4.4.3.
Is there a way I can hide the system update prompt?

Thanks. I've looked into it and I have Windows 8.1 and the ruu has known issues with 8.1

Dude just download stock recovery and flash it using fastboot mode...then download ota and let it upgrade...and if u have bootloader 1.5x then there will be no problem in flashing stock recovery in fastboot mode with win 8.1..just flash stock recovery not the whole ruu

That's exactly what I did.

if you want an HTC OTA update: unroot, stock recovery, stock ROM, S-On
you still recieve an OTA update, download it, but you can't flash it to your current ROM. this is happen if you flash a GPE ROM too.
the other custom ROM let you have an OTA update, download it, and flash it. but remember, the OTA is custom ROM updated version from the ROM developer. that's not from HTC

S-ON and root has nooting to do with OTA updates. Only stock recovery and unmodified /system and /data/preload files matters.
@real slim shady @abhishek0704
Even if the OP flash the stock recovery back, there are high chances he will not be able to install the ota update due to /data/preload being wiped when unlocking bootloader. Flashing stock recovery takes like 1 minute to do, so yes it worth a try, bt don't be surprised if the ota install fail.

Sorry for hijacking post but i've got the same problem.
I flashed stock recovery onto my rooted htc one m7 which also had TWRP recovery.
Boots up normally, downloaded the OTA but it fails to install when it reaches middle of the install bar.
What should I do to get back to complete stock rom and be able to install OTA's?
edit: Also when i try to get into stock recovery menu it writes "can not mount SD Card. ( No such file or directory)" and "I:Write host_mode:0 done" but somehow it loads recovery menu but if i choose some option it restarts the phone.

to get over the air update your phone must be stock never unlocked. you can RUU back to stock if theirs a RUU for your phone or you can install stock recovery and the missing files from unlocking the bootloader.
Most times it's much easier to just use TWRP and flash the latest stock rooted rom and not worry about OTA updates
This is where you are now

Where can you get the missing files which are deleted when unlocking the device?
I would like to get the htc back to complete stock, no root and etc. Rooted it month ago and still haven't used any root-required apps.

that all depends on what phone you have
post your results from
fastboot getvar all
minus your serial no and IMEI and we can search for a RUU or Guru Reset for your phone

[Q] My HTC One is bricked!!!! please HELP

Hello everyone. It is my first time on this forum, so please be patient.
On Saturday I received my new HTC One 802d dual sim. Following in the steps of this and other forums I could root it and unlock the bootloader.
Then I wanted to get S-Off for putting on a new ROM but while the Moonshine was running, in one of the many resets, the phone can't start the OS (obviously cmd window showed an error).
From there on I tried a myriad of things but with no success. I could not find the original RUU to flash it either.
I am truly desperate!!!! can anyone help ???

You might want to remove your meid from your first post.
Assuming you have a custom recovery installed, you might try to install Maximus HD for dual sim. I found these instructions in his other thread for the single sim rom. Why don't you think you have a rom installed? Are you stuck in bootloader? You can follow these instructions by alray but you must use a custom recovery for your variant and the Maximus HD rom for your variant.
If you get the rom installed and working, I would try rumrunner S-OFF, since you have a lower hboot. Since you have such a unique phone, I would make nandroid backups to I could recover from issues easier. I hope it helps.

Thank you very much!!!! I'll try to flash Maximus HD, but I have a few questions:
The phone has to be unlocked?
What would be the details to consider the rom to choose?

This is a long shot but first I would try to flash the stock firmware 4.22.707.3. You will need to lock your bootloader first. This firmware will wipe your personnal data from the phone.
First, download the firmware file and rename it firmware.zip and place in your adb/fastboot folder.
Second, relock you phone using this command:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Third, use the following procedure to flash the stock firmware to your phone:
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader

First, download the firmware file and rename it firmware.zip and place in your adb/fastboot folder.
Second, relock you phone using this command:

fastboot oem lock
Third, use the following procedure to flash the stock firmware to your phone:

Thanks is enough for helping you out.
Wifi might be a software issue, with the new firmware you got the latest radio for your phone. If you still have the stock rom installed you could try the OTA update? If the rom is stock and the recovery is stock you could rename (to shorten it) and move the OTA to your sdcard. When it is on your sdcard, follow these steps for installing the OTA manually. It may or may not run, but if it fails it will tell you why it failed and maybe we can fix it.

Hi....
The phone has installed Android 4.4.2, HTC Sence 6.0 from MaximusHD 3.0
Should I also install this OTA?

No, there is no stock rom for your phone! So, you can not go back to stock to get the OTA. Make a nandroid backup while in recovery and save it to your computer should something go amiss in the future. Glad to see you are back up and running.
Go to your first post and edit the title with "[Solved]".

Hi friend, i'm here again.
I had to reflash my phone with help from llabtoofer.com
We were able to fix the Wifi but the phone does not work on 3G network... only on EDGE.
Could be a problem with the Firmware or with the Radio?
I just called the telephone's company and they said that APN configuration was ok. If you want, I can send you a copy.
I'm in Argentina, Latin America.... perhaps the ROM installed is from Europe or perhaps is not compatible with my M7C_DWG.
Can you help me one more time?
Thanks.... I will waiting.

An earlier post stated that you had MaximusHD 3.0 installed. According to the website it doesn't support your phone! However, your software information has just the stock rom not MaximusHD 3.0. I don't thing there is an RUU for your phone so if you can find someone with a nandroid backup that you could use it would help. If you could get the stock firmware and flash it. Sorry, I'm not much help.

[Q] urgent help please

Hi, really need some help as i have no clue whats happening, installed Lollipop update on my htc one tonight, when it went to start up it got stuck at htc one screen, tried rebooting several times with no change, the phone was previously unlocked, rooted and had a custom rom installed, but i did the stock RUU, which relocked the phone and allowed me to do OTA back to Kitkat 4.4.3. I can get into the bootloader which shows *Tampered* (i know that one) but underneath its saying *Unlocked* ? please help

Very strange, can you link the RUU that you used to get back to stock ? never known an RUU to relock the bootloader for you.

I would say, try again, start again, its possible that the Lollipop update has got a bit corrupt along the way somewhere, maybe the download, thankfully your only soft bricked, you will need to get back to the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and then push that guru reset to your internal SDCard and flash it again, very strange that all of the KK updates worked fine but the LP one bricked you.
Before you do try that, have you tried a factory reset from the bootloader ?
Damn, hang on, the firmware part of the LP update seems to have worked fine, I can see thats all updated, you probably wont beable to use the guru reset again due to HBOOT conflicts.

try the factory reset first, if that doesnt work, as you have the newer firmware on your phone already, I would flash a custom recovery (TWRP 2.8.4.0) and then flash this rom, its basically stock Lollipop with future OTA ability.

This is very strange, im tempted to say try and relock the bootloader first and then try and boot, but im worried that if it still doesnt boot you may not be able to unlock the bootloader again, then you'll be right up the creek without a paddle.

[Q] Unable to go STOCK or flash other ROMs, adb shows device as offline

Hello xda members.
I'm having some trouble with my device, I did search around this past week but still didnt success in fixing it, hope someone can point me in the right direction.
So I was S-ON with 4.3 - 4.4 on ViperOne for a long time, most of the things worked fine but my 3G was a bit slow/disconnected from time to time.
I though giving a shot to a Lollipop version Sky Dragon. I downloaded and installed Sky Dragon and used it fine for some months, but then when I wanted to use Android Studio for a project my device was not recognized. I manually run adb devices and it would not show my device (debuggin on), tried some search on google but without success.
I though moving back to ViperOne / ARHD (I really missed SENSE) would solve my problem, so downloaded the rom and tried to install but it would always stuck in "formatting partition" process.
I manually put my device in fastboot and run getvar all which resulted in BLANK version-main, very strange.
I did some search but had only few similar cases, I tried to go to STOCK by re-lockocking bootloader, flashing stock firmware but the RUU.exe would always stop at 5% and show "fastboot_htc.exe has stopped working", again did some research but could not find a solution.
When I try to flash custom firmware through fastboot flash zip I will always get "(bootloader) Read zipped android_info fail FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail)".
I then found a tool to write a version-main into the emmc and after flashing it in TWRP I got a 1.00.000.0 version-main. Tried all of above again with the same results. My device will be recognised as "offline" in adb devices.
Luckily I have some backups (viperone 4.3 and skydragon) that work fine except that I cant update and cant connect via adb.
I have outputted my getvar all, let me know if you need further info for my case.

Having the version-main blank is not an issue preventing your phone to work properly, its only an aesthetic issue. The version-main can be restored by flashed the stock firmware back.
