do you know how to use adb and fastboot, also do you have drivers installed on your computer ?

adb wont work in the bootloader, heres where the fun starts:
ADB commands only work in a booted rom or in a custom recovery, they don't work in the bootloader
Fastboot commands only work in the bootloader, they don't work in a booted rom or recovery.
phew.....glad we got that bit out of the way
first thing is first, can you start downloading this, its your reset rom file, but the servers are a little slow, that's why I say start, when its finished downloading, rename it to rom.zip for ease, and put it in the same folder on your computer where adb and fastboot files are please, heres the file: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/
whilst that is downloading, you will need to goto HTC Dev and unlock your bootloader, just follow the instructions they give you, its a piece of cake, and as you already have adb and fastboot, you wont need to download the 3 files later on that they tell you to download: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/
your flags will then turn to UNLOCKED and TAMPERED, this is normal, nothing to worry about.
report back when done.

you could try one of the alternative links on that site, however, if your happy with your phone the way it is now then you wont need that file.
just scroll down the page a little and theres 2 alternative download links.

Its software that is not customized. Wikipedia says:
Computer software, and sometimes also other computing-related systems like computer hardware or algorithms, is called Vanilla when not customized from its original form, meaning that it is used without any customizations or updates applied to it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanilla_software
Maybe actual vanilla would be stock android without any htc customizatios though.

ahh I see, now that's where we were heading originally, to get pure stock rom you will need to download that file I linked you too earlier, and as your phone is booting now, just copy the file to your internal storage not into the adb and fastboot folder.
i'll tell you what to do next if you want to proceed.

well the download is going to take forever and it is already 1 am here so maybe i have to do this some other time. But you can give the instuction and i'll do this later.
You have been very helpful, thank you again.

when the file has finished downloading, check the MD5 and file size before copying it to your phone, just to make sure its not corrupt.
then what you will have to do, is copy that file you are downloading to your internal storage, then reboot your phone to the bootloader and plug it into the computer,. make sure it says fastboot usb on the screen.
then download this file: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
and put it in the same folder as adb and fastboot on your computer, open a command window (CMD) in that folder by holding control + shift + right mouse click in any white area of that folder and select open a command window here, then type the following commands one at a time, wait for each command to finish before issuing the next.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
once that is done, unplug your phone and enter recovery using the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select.
when in recovery goto wipe and just swipe to factory reset, do not advanced wipe.
when done, goto install and in the list it gives you, select the file you downloaded and copied to your internal storage, swipe to begin the install, follow the instructions, and when it gives you the options, select yes wipe data, yes install stock radio and yes install stock recovery.
once installation is complete, it will ask you to reboot, when you select reboot, if the screen goes black (this doesn't always happen, most times it reboots without any problems), just hold down the power button until the lights on the bottom flash 10 to 15 times and then the phone will boot to full stock rom with OTA ability.
I know this sounds long and confusing, but you will see as you go along its easy, just don't skip any steps.
if you have any problems, just report back here, but if you follow my instructions it should run like clockwork.

Download official ruu from here http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/ check the CID ... CID codes are given vit RUU .yrs is HTC_Y13 So try yur cid supported ruu. bootloader must b locked.

hi there, thank you for the reply, i have done steps 1, id already done that but ive done it again and installed the sdk into a folder in c drive for ease. the only problem is that when i click on fastboot in xp it comes up with a cmd windows a lot of writing comes down and then it just closes :/
ive already voided the warranty as ive somehow managed to unlock the bootloader and ive flashed cmw now what i need to do is somehow get s off and sideload a rom
another issue i have is that because i cant use fastboot the way youve said, ive downloaded an all in one tool from this forum, when i click a process it dosent do anything for me, but what it does so, is open a cmd window in which im able to type in fast boot commands i did the getvar all command and here is what you requested

thanks for your reply, i am not able to open a command by selecting the white space as for toonight im running on a 15 year old xp laptop. i will try the ruu but any i have tried have concluded in giving what i think was a 170 error saying use correct ruu
the ruu you have linked indicates i need s off, which i am having trouble doing, could you guide me ? i am thinking when i have fixed my windows 8 laptop tommorow this is going to be a smoother process. it also says i need hboot 1.44 and have to flash this

If you don't solve it before I get a lil bit of time, I can try for tonight but can't promise it as it's still hectic here at work, I'll log in remotely and have a look at things if you want, and try to help you get it sorted.
In the meantime, you can take a picture of the hboot or fastboot screen that you get to with power + vol down and post it, and that will help you get the information from us for more information on the phone.
Also post a shot of the correspondence from HTC with your personal information removed/redacted/left out and that will also help us help you.
DO NOT ATTEMPT S - OFF with the knowledge and hardware that you're working with, you first need to use adb and fastboot some and be familiar with it before even going there. I'm not saying not ever, I'm saying not until you've resolved this and the phone's running good.

when i run rumrunner with my version 2.24.401.1 it just says run again and read. so obviously failing. i did everything before i typed fastboot devices and got my device code, then getvar ver to get my number and downloaded appropriately but rum runner dosent work. so no s off. i give up.
sorry didnt read your reply, well it didnt initialise so no s off anyway

open the sideload feature of the customer recovery on your phone and connect to your computer usb
download this and put the downloaded file together with your adb and fastboot folder
then adb sideload or adb push the dowloaded guru reset to your One
once it is done, you can install the guru reset zip using the custom recovery install option
right just to update i have some semi good news and fell im getting somewhere
got my windows 8 laptop up and running today and installed all drivers and adp corrdctly, this accounts for the intel usb 3 mod too. adb and fastboot were recognising the device.

[Q] Soft-Bricked HTC One - Want to go 100% stock again.

Solved thanks to @alray
Ok so the other day I tried going to Android 4.4 Google edition with a rom but s-off never worked. Without noticing s-on I tried installing the rom which soft bricked the phone (Starts up goes past HTC logo and flashes google logo then the screen goes blue).
I made the obvious mistake of not making a back up so I'm stuck. I have access to Bootloader & Recovery. I've tried installing RUU files but the ones I've tried so far get stuck at 7% 'Checking Header'. I'm just looking to get back to a working phone... Any help is appreciated.
If I'm missing any info you need let me know, I'm new to this...
Thanks.
More info:
I'm in Ireland, Europe.
The phone works with different sim cards (So I assume it must be unlocked).

the ruu failed because you need s-off to use them with hboot 1.55 (require hboot downgrade to 1.44 which require s-off)
so now your best option is tu install a guru reset. Use this file
boot your phone into your custom recovery and push the file I linked above to your sd card. then install the .zip file with your custom recovery and follow instruction from the graphical user interface (aroma installer)

This may sound silly but, do you know if I need to buy the 'On the go usb cable' like in his video? I dont think I do since he was running a 1.29.xxx (doesnt support touch screen) but I'll be running a 3.62.401.1 (he doesnt specify if I need one or not...) Just want to make sure before doing anything.
Thanks.

Move the .zip file to your fastboot/adb folder. boot your phone in recovery. then:
Code:
adb push name_of_file.zip /sdcard/
then in recovery select ''install'' and slect the zip you pushed
no need to use otg cable

Stock OTA does not find updates // broken stock recovery

hey guys,
i just wanted to go back to stock with my HTC ONE. I flashed the Guru Reset M7 3.62.401.1.zip on my device but now it won't find any system updates. Also the recovery seems to be broken. Even after flashing the recovery seperatly the phone only shows a red triangle when i try to enter the stock recovery.
It also does not find any updates with the SuperCID.
Do you have any idea how to fix that?
I have the international Version of the HTC ONE.
Thanks in advance!

post your fastboot getvar all please without imei and serial number, be sure to remove these two items before posting, there have been a lot of users on here lately looking for replacement imei numbers etc, I just had a PM asking me for one, with that info they could clone your phone.
next, are you sure the 401 ruu is yours, that's why I want your fastboot getvar all.
are you s-off ?
the red triangle is stock recovery.
if you are s-off, change your CID back to HTC__001, super cid is not in the 401 ruu's or OTA's

post your fastboot getvar all please without imei and serial number, be sure to remove these two items before posting, there have been a lot of users on here lately looking for replacement imei numbers etc, I just had a PM asking me for one, with that info they could clone your phone.
next, are you sure the 401 ruu is yours, that's why I want your fastboot getvar all.

Dont start the RUU first. First put the phone in fastboot mode, get the getvar to check if all's in order.
Once you getvar shows, it means the device is connected. After that, try the RUU
If still no luck, use RUU.zip

A live CD is basically an OS running on a USB/CD. Instead of the portable version which runs within the Windows OS, you will boot directly from the USB containing Ubuntu. Nothing will happen to your existing Windows; once you're done with the RUU flashing process, just shut down the computer and unplug the USB
To get it running, download the Ubuntu image and click Download:
http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/
Then, to prepare the bootable USB stick, this link:
unetbootin.net
Download that software. Choose the correct Ubuntu version and create the stick. Once you're done/ have doubts, let me know

Cool. Now, you have to change the boot priority to the USB as first booting option. If you know how to do so, then proceed
If you don't, then there are two ways to depending on the pre-installed OS on your PC
Did your computer come with Windows 8/8.1 pre-installed or did it come with Win7 or older ?

[Q] Bad Flash Or Soft Bricked??

Hey guys, i never really need anyones help but this is annoying me now. My problem is that i have converted my HTC One to the google edition firmware and all was going great. Earlier today i wanted to try the latest MIUI Rom so i downloaded it and flashed it. Everything went smoothly until it came to reboot (i totally wiped phone before i installed MIUI) and now it wont turn on or charge and show only signs of life in the form of fastboot which i can use getvar all to pull my system info. Some fields are blank which arent meant to be. I cannot flash anything as screen wont turn on or even vibrate. Kind of at a loss now and any help will be appreciated.

i think he has a lot more to fix than just the misc partition, not sure if this is fixable, i believe the updater-script wrote to hboot partition, and he's unlikely to even be able to "fastboot oem rebootRUU" to fix that,
if by some chance he's able to get to recovery, then he'd have to manually dd all the messed up partitions.
OP, can you upload the updater-script (it's in <nameofrom>zip /META-INF/com/google/android) to pastebin (or zip it and attach it here).

Reboot into fastboot mode.
Hold Power + Volume Down until, select Fastboot.
Run this command:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
We can then get the CID/Model and Fastboot version so you can use an RUU to recover the device.

you can unlock again the same way you did the first time, using the unlock_code.bin you have received from htcdev.com. if the unlock code you already have doesnt work anymore, request a new unlock code by submitting you identifier token again.

I was more or less asking for your preference.
Your phone has partitions of memory which hold data, and when you update or install a custom ROM, the recovery utility mounts the partitions so they can be accessed to write and read data. Android does this every-time you turn on your phone. Formatting a partition doesn't delete it, it simply removes everything. CyanogenMod incorporated "block by name" mounting. Which basically makes it easier to mount partitions without being device specific.
Try this version of TWRP: http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-m7.img
Anything above 2.7.1.1 should work, anything below will not.
For ClockWorkMod anything above 6.0.4.8 will work.
