[Q] HTC One convert to GPE - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I'm trying to convert my HTC One to Google play edition to get rid of HTC Sense and to get faster updates.
I have followed these guides:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2766134
http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...with-bootloader-recovery-ota-updates-0148068/
Here's some info about my phone:
hboot 1.57
m7_ul
5.11.401.10
cid: HTC__Y13 -> GOOGL001
modelid: PN0710000
What I've done:
- Unlocked bootloader via HTCDEV
- Installed TWRP
- Installed Super-User to get root
- (tried to get s-off with firewater which didnt work since i got a message about a HTC-anti-firewater-patch)
- Installed Bulletproof kernel to get passed the HTC-anti-firewater-patch
- Got s-off via firewater
- Tried to change my cid to GOOGL001 from HTC__Y13 - Got an error message, but after rebooting, fastboot getvar cid gives me GOOGL001...
- I now tried to install RUU-HTC_One_GE-4.4.2-3.62.1700.1_Rooted.zip but got annan error message: "read zipped android_info fail"
What have I done wrong?
Any ideas? (I have never installed an RUU before)
I'm thankful for any help

One of the sources I read that that I did not have to change it if it was listed in the text-file inside of the RUU-zip, which it was. But I'll try that, thanks!
I just noticed a weird thing now... my device is now S-ON again!!! Could this have happened automatically when the RUU-installation failed?
The bad part is that I can now longer get firewater to succeed. It randomly quits after 1 or 2 bottles, without error message :crying:

[GUIDE] Install any Gingerbread RUU on Canadian IS!

INTRODUCTION
As I promised in my last guide, I have played around with the RUUs in an attempt to bypass the "Model ID Incorrect" error, and have successfully installed the Optus 2.3.3 RUU on my Bell IS!
WHAT IS REQUIRED?
-a S-OFF'ed IS (doesn't need to be radio S-OFF'ed)
- That's it! A goldcard MAY also be required(it wasn't for me, but people are reporting they still get CID errors).
INSTRUCTIONS
Follow this guide until the 4th bullet under "How to install the Gingerbread update if you're S-OFF" but copy the rom.zip to your Desktop instead of your phone.
Extract rom.zip into your Desktop and open the new "rom" folder
First of all, you should now see 12 files in this folder. Delete the file "hboot_1.13.0000_CRC_8a731c6e_0401.img"... (This is mandatory! You MUST delete this file for the update to succeed! You may flash it on after installing the RUU if you wish, but you will lose S-OFF if you do not have radio S-OFF.)
Now open "android-info.txt" in wordpad or another similar text editor... The use of notepad is discouraged.
Now this is where the magic happens.
Change the line "modelid: PG3213000" to "modelid: PG3212000" (This will fix the "Model ID Incorrect" error)
[Optional] If you would like to flash the RUU without using a gold card then:
Add the following lines after "cidnum: OPTUS001":
cidnum: HTC__622
cidnum: HTC__038
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__044
cidnum: 11111111
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now click "File" -> "Save".
Now Select all the files in the rom folder(Ctrl + A), right click on one of the file and select "Send to" -> "Compressed (zipped) folder" and rename the folder to PG32IMG.zip.
Return to this guide and follow the rest of the bullets under "How to install the Gingerbread update if you're S-OFF"
Enjoy your gingerbread RUU
Excellent tutorial, but would you help me with another issue?
I am running CyanogenMod 7 (2.3.4) on my Incredible S and I can't make calls because I can't hear or speak anything.
Now, I did that change to the script and I got past Model ID issues, but now it is saying my CID is incorrect??

Did you add the lines:
cidnum: HTC__622
cidnum: HTC__038
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__044
cidnum: 11111111
a better way
this way works with every BRANDED IS (including canadian bell vr)
after using alpharevx to achieve s-off
u will want to install recovery next (just like any other tutorial tells you), but branded IS will always get a CID-incorrect
inorder to fix this, create a goldcard by following this link
wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Howto:_Create_a_Goldcard
except when you are on step 3, use this command instead
cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid
USING MMC1 or MMC0 will never work!!!
using your goldcard, you will bypass all the cid incorrect problems
then you can use your gold card to flash recovery / radio
cheers

you will need to flash a new radio, under CM7 post he should have told you to flash a new radio. After flashing the new radio no audio bug will go away

Hi
I followed all your instructions:
Downloaded : RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_Optus_AU_2.12.980.2_R_Radio_20.2803.30.085AU_3805.04.03.12_M_release_185028_signed
Then romved the hboot file
Updated android_info.txt to:
modelid: PG3212000
cidnum: OPTUS001
cidnum: HTC__622
cidnum: HTC__038
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__044
cidnum: 11111111
hbootpreupdate:13
mainver: 2.12.980.2
Zipped into the PG32IMG.zip file.
Uploaded to my sd card
Rebooted my phone in the bootloader...
But I get "CID incorrect"
What could I be doing wrong?
Then I checked XDA and found how to get my CID this is what I got:
C:\Users\fabian\Desktop\CWM>adb shell getprop ro.cid
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
BM___001
How can I fix this?
Thanks.

This method will only work if you have s-off, not s-on. You need to run AlphaRevX to gain s-off and then you can flash a new ROM.
Hi sorry for the confusion, I did S-OFF my device with AlphaRevX and installed CMW... I just copied and old txt file with the word S-ON on it.
Any ideas? By the way, what does CID stand for?
Excellent tutorial
This is beyond fantastic. I have had my phone in Hboot-Fastboot with a boot loop for 4 days and counting. It was so bad to the point where my GF was almost ready to buy me a new Sensation 4G off kijiji!
Regardless this is great news, I will try it out the minute I am home from work.
FINGERS CROSSED!
-----UPDATE-----
I followed the instructions front to back. Archived all of the ROM contects, made deletion of Hboot file in rom. Changed cid numbers. Renamed the archive as PG32IMG.zip after formatting my SD card. Went to hboot on my DincS, and it said image not found. Found it odd since it worked yesterday when I used a differend PG32IMG batch, it failed but it made it past the reading cycle before the update.
Any thoughts?
Hi guys
I really need your help here. Please
I've been able to:
S-Off using alpharevx.
Install CWM.
Root my device.
And even flash it with a Saskatel Froyo ROM.
I downloaded the OPTUS, Vigin and Europe ROMS, and every time tried flashing I get.
Model ID incorrect.
Then I found this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1145541
Explaining this issue. I
unziped the files,
removed the booter file,
modified android.txt and added the lines described.
However, when I try flashing the ROM, I get a CID incorrect!!!!!!!!!
I really want to get GB, how do I overcome this?
@aresguerrero, is it really needed to double post?
Just loaded all files as described in tutorial. I am getting CID incorrect.
Just to clarify my Dincs is stuck in a bootloop. I have no backups, no custom firmware.
This is what my phone is showing:
---AlphaRev---

@ Thumper0G
I get the same CID Incorrect, the only ROM I've been able to flash is the one from Saskatel.
Keep me updated, I've looked a lot trying to find a solution.

You are in the same boat I have been for two weeks now. If only Bell were to release their Gingerbread update and all problems would be avoided .

Well here is the problem. I am stuck in a boot loop. Even though the RUU.exe says that the update has installed and my android is ready to use, I am still in a bootloop.
Yes this is awesome that the phone updated for once. PROBLEM> NO S-OFF and BOOTLOOP is still going on...
I am sooooo stuck.
NOW, here's a question. Would my phone be ok to send in for service now that the S-OFF is gone and it's back to S-ON or is my warranty no good.
Can I make a goldcard even though my droid is unusable?
if not can I use my gf's Incredible S. its the same phone, and carrier.
I've used this ROM to get gingerbread 2.3.

It occurs to me that:
You can get an XTC clip and get rid of the S-ON (Hardware)
Then flash the Saskatel 2.2 ROM as I did.
Hope that helps...

Before you attempted this, did you run AlphaRevX to gain S-OFF? Which RUU were you attempting to install? There was another thread about this 'Security Warning' on the HBOOT screen and I'm not sure the OP was able to get this resolved.
yes the phone was s-off but after i install the rom the phone back to s-onn now i cant connect via usb or connection just it appear 'Security Warning' how can install orginal rom?

Here is the other thread about the Security Warning. You may want to read through it and see if any of the suggestions will work for you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136041
The only way to get out of that is by flashing the stock RUU the phone came with. In your case it would have to be Sasktel and if that doesn't work because you receive the error "Main Version is Older!" then your screwed. Your going to have to wait until Sasktel or Bell releases their official gingerbread updates.
I am in the exact same boat as I am the composer of the thread from above lol.

I Installed 2.12.405.7 with goldcard. and new can't make goldcard because not ADB
I try add android_info.txt this text cidnum: HTC__038 but not worked
I hope I need Indian RUU Rom with CID: HTC__038 Or who know this Problem? and who can help me?
I had the same problem with my Bell IS, I just ran the ruu.exe from a Windows pc and it installed with no problems at all. Now I'm back to a stock rom, with no problems at all.
I am going to S-off and root again later, whenever a stable Rom comes round. If you don't have a stock RUU, you can get it on HTC'S website, if one for you carrier is available.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA Premium App
In official htc site can't find stock ruu installer for my IS with cid:HTC__038.
You can create a gold card and try flashing your original rom or the rom you were originally trying to flash on your phone.
Can you tell me were or how to make? I have not CID for Gold card
How to make w/o ADB and w/o XTC-Clip?
You can buy a card reader and try and make one that way. Then put the goldcard into the inc s.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA App
Have you tried to install the SaskTel ruu.exe gb upgrade from Windows?
If that won't work, then you will have to find the proper ruu for your phone and install via a pc.

sasktel ruu and zip file not worked - 'model id incorrect'
:-(
Try removing android.txt, leave it out and run ruu again.
It is pretty hard to brick a phone, it just takes some time and a lot of trying different things, but you should be able to succeed.

The only way to by-pass the HTC signature check in RUU mode is if you have S-OFF (security off).
so no way to repair phone?

Ok so I have gone back and reread your posts. I would suggest you go back and try flashing 2.30.405.1 instead of trying to go back to 2.12.405.7. According to your getvar output, the radio from the 2.30.405.1 has been flashed. It would probably help if you could make a gold card and then try flashing the 2.30.405.1 RUU. Or you can try it without a gold card.

[HELP] htc one developer edition error 140

Hello guys,
My wife tried to do the OTA update, but the phone had custom rom and the phone is now bricked.
It is relocked and s-off
I downloaded RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.29.1540.16.exe (Developer Edition)
and RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.29.1540.3.exe (Developer Edition)
However, none of them worked. It gives me error 140: bootloader version error. I know it has something about downgrading, but im not sure what to do.
its been 5 hours since Im trying to unbrick it, but unsuccessful so far.
I will greatly appreciate any solution.
here are some info of the phone.

1- no need to be relocked/locked with S-Off
2- error 140? (i thought it would give error 155), but anyway, it's due hboot 1.55, you need to first & separately downgrade hboot to 1.44, check my guide in my signature in post #1 there's the hboot download link and instructions.
DO NOT GO S-ON!

I am downloading the RUU 3.22.1540.1 right now and see if it works. If it doesnt, is it possible to s-off without a rom in my phone?
I tried revone, but i needed the phone to be working. How about rumrunner?
Because that way, I could downgrade and then finish the work.
Right now all I can do with the phone is get to bootloader and twrp recovery.
Thanks

first try the ruu you are downloading
revone will only work with hboot 1.43 - 1.44. you have to use rumrunner to s-off hboot 1.55 with a rom like arhd 31.6 or cyanogenmod 10 (because of their unsecured kernel)
or you can also go back to stock with a guru reset rom which you can adb push to the device and install via custom recovery.

[Q] GPe to Sense

Hello members of XDA,
I ran into a problem trying to restoring my Htc One back to sense version, it sais on the conversion thread that I should have a backup of my original Hboot, which I do not have. I don't know if that's a problem, i downloaded the 1.44 hboot as I guess that's the one I should use to get back to stock. As of now I have S off, and am on hboot 1.54 and on official GPE.
Now comes the part where I'm stuck, I do not know what kind of RUU I need to return to stock, I know I need the hboot 1.44 one but I don't want any problems with bloatware or flashing a wrong baseband etc. Can anyone point me in the right direction of the right RUU? To be sure I'm pasting a getvar all

Thank you so much,
Why do so many threads advice to run 1.44 RUU though? After this I will have 1.44 hboot with android 4.4.2?
Edit: Download is taking aprox 2-3 hrs. Is there any way I can download it a little bit faster?

try here
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...0-38r-1157-04l_release_353069_signed_2-1-exe/
and no you have hboot 1.56 after the RUU step
the hboot 1.44 insures the RUU will work smoothly
it's also a vital step if you want to remove tampered and show locked instead of relocked
to return for repair

I'll just keep my pc on for a bit Thank you so much for your help.
Just 1 more question, will my bootloader be updated with the RUU itself? I need the phone as much stock possible since I need to give it for warranty for camera replacement.

now we are getting somewhere
before running the RUU you have more work then
you have to remove the tampered flag and lock before running the RUU
use this tool to do both >> http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_bootloader_reset_1-0-zip/
from @nkk71 SuperGuide
Method 2: Guru Bootloader Reset, more automated, but may freeze
adb push Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0.zip /data/media/
in recovery, "install zip" -> "choose zip" -> and select "Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0"
go through the installer and select "Remove TAMPERED" and "LOCK Bootloader"; once finished: continue with below reboot command
adb reboot bootloader
and confirm no TAMPERED and LOCKED status

I dont have the tampered flag so i guess i dont have to do that,
I will use that to get my bootloader locked though, thank you. RUU is still downloading as we speak but I can almost run it
So its:
1. Flash hboot
2. lock bootloader
3. run RUU?

ERROR [110]: FILE OPEN ERROR
This error message indicates that the RUU lacks some specific files or they are damaged, so the RUU cannot continue with the update. You have to get the complete RUU package and try again.
ERROR [120]: MAIN BATTERY POWER
This error message will appear when the Android phone’s battery power is not sufficient (Batter power should be more than 30%). Although RUU will instruct you to plug in the AC adapter, it will still need to make sure that your Android phone has enough power to complete the update. (The Android phone cannot charge the battery when it is connected to the PC while installing the RUU).
ERROR [130]: MODEL ID ERROR
ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the update. The RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the Android phone. Make sure you use the correct RUU to update.
ERROR [155~159]: IMAGE ERROR
One of these error messages will appear when you use the incorrect RUU to update and the image file size is larger than the Flash ROM size. In this case, download the correct RUU version and try again.
ERROR [170]: USB CONNECTION ERROR
This error message will appear when the Android phone is not correctly connected to the host PC. It might be a USB connection problem or a PC USB driver problem. Make sure the Android phone is connected to the host PC correctly and/or check if the PC driver matches the Android phone.

Yes I flashed the 1.44 HBOOT,
can I flash supercid with relocked bootloader?
I'll try another RUU in a bit. Does it matter that radio's dont match?

if you locked the bootloader all you can't do is flash a recovery (I think ? )
for a RUU all your really interested in is the x.xx.401.x part

[Q] need help flashing stock

hey guys, please help me out.
yesterday I got a call from my family member that he did something wrong (switched off the phone while it was installing the OTA) and now his htc one (m7) is not starting, he has no idea about the android rooting and stuff nor do I, but he asked me to find out the solution.
so here is what I did apart from too much of reading the same info again n again (and I did all this things remotely with his help as my relative lives is in another city)
1. unlocked bootloader
2. flashed twrp (latest)
3. then I came across this guru reset file (a zip file) and flashed it, I used this file because I read RUU are the real stock files but to use them I need s-off which i didn't have. below is the detailed info of the file I flashed (copied from the webpage
"
Guru Reset M7 3.63.707.4
File Size: 1.1 GiB - Downloads: 33194
MD5: 6aba67e56889124c4ab5188bba15a569
Comments: Stock Asia/India (World Wide English) ROM 3.63.707.4 with graphical aroma installer. Includes the ability to flash the Stock Recovery and also Stock Radio.
Future OTA Updates will work when available.
modelid: PN0711000
modelid: PN0714000
cidnum: HTC__044
cidnum: HTC__038
"
I did not choose anything extra ordinary in aroma installer, just stock radio and recovery.
everything is working fine now with just one little problem, the mobile is not receiving OTA updates, it's showing an error about "variant version"
I read even more and came across the words , CID and MID
i checked them after flashing the new file, it's
MID - PN0711000
CID - HTC__038
I don't know if it changed automatically after flashing new rom but my MID and CID is matching the file detailed info of the zip i flashed, so please let me know what should I do now?

Since the phone hboot version is 1.57, there is a mismatch between your rom (software) version and your firmware version. hboot 1.57 is for version 5.xx.xxx.x 6.xx.xxx.xx, so in your case you should flash the 5.12.707.104 reset rom not the 3.63.707.4.

The reset Rom is for an older Firmware version than your phone is running
The Rom is version is 3.xx.707.x but your actual firmware version is 5.xx.707.x or 6.xx.707.x as indicated by hboot 1.57. Try the reset Rom from this link
