Hi Everyone,
Okay so I have spent the last 3 hours following various guides in order to restore my ViperOne ROM HTC One M7 to a stock HTC ROM along with locking the bootloader again, everything I've tried has failed though. I'm wondering if anyone here can help me as I need to sell this phone ASAP but can't do that until I restore to stock.
Anyway, the bootloader was unlocked using the HTCDev website and I then installed the custom ROM after that. The Bootloader version appears to be 1.57, not sure if that actually matters.
I tried locking the bootloader which worked and then tried to restore using the O2 UK RUU which failed (The app just crashes at the same point every time).
So I'd really appreciate any help from you guys
Thanks in advance

Post a fastboot getvar all with the imei and serialno removed. I am guessing that the RUU you ran was for an earlier version and unless you are S-OFF you can only run RUUs that are same OS version or higher.
You will need to use this guide to return to stock.

Based on your getvar all you have a Int'l (.401) phone not an O2 UK branded phone. You will need to follow the directions of this site for stock rom 5.11.401.10 and you should be back whole. You can get the stock firmware if you need it from this site: http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC%2FHTC_One%2F401%2F Just select the 5.11.401.10 firmware.
For S-OFF, you need to be as close to stock as you can. If you are getting "whelp not able to S-OFF" then you might look at Sunshine S-OFF, but there is a price use it.
I realised that I had the international version shortly after posting my information back to you in this thread. Okay so I'm not really interested in getting S-OFF, I only wanted it to be able to use the RUU to restore to stock. So if I just follow method 1 from the post you linked me too, will I be back to get back to stock sense? I assume that I would still see "relocked" and "tampered" in my bootloader?
Thanks for all your help so far!
That worked a charm!!! I'm back on stock FW!!! Thank you! One thing though, will the person I sell the phone too be able to get software updates in future?

If you have stock rom, stock recovery & stock firmware, he/she should be able to get OTA assuming you did not put a custom recovery or root after flashing the stock fw.

That's great news! Would the fact that I ran the stock FW recovery zip from your link mean that I no longer have TWRP on my phone or do I have to do something else to get rid of that too?

run this exe: http://bugsylawson.com/index.php/fi...2706-1027112701-release-308001-signed-2-4exe/
then you'll have stock rom and stock recovery. after this you can relock your bootloader with "fastboot oem lock" and you're as stock as possible for you since you have s-on and hboot 1.54 (so you cant "lock" it, only relock).

i've looked into the cid-list for you and it seems you're using a russian version. i could not find a matching RUU in the collection and don't want to give you any wrong advice.. :/
the problem is that you're on hboot 1.54, so you can't get s-off to change the CID..
maybe someone else can help you with a matching backup..

Hello guys,
So, i might be in a big problem, tried a lot of things. This is my last try to finally get stock again.
I will start with how it began.
When i received my phone, i updated to 4.2.2, hboot 1.54.
After long waiting 1,54 was able to get S-OFF. And i achieved S-OFF successfully --> Flashed latest firmware (3.57.401.500) and flashed the latest
ARHD (30.00).
The new firmware came out, so i wanted to flash that. Once in bootloader I saw that my phone has gone S-ON again? And it really is S-ON.
I've tried flashing the GURU thingy to reset to stock 4.2.2, stock recovery everything. But i still fail to receive the OTA.
So here i am now, hoping you guys have an solution to all this:

Did you get the popup of OTA?
However, strange that now you're s-on, maybe try to ask beaups.
p.s. For apply ota you need a locked bootloader, is yours?

I have relocked my bootloader.
And i never received a popup for OTA, but since the international version is released, i should have it, IF i am completely stock. But i have no idea how to achieve that, since I tried most of the things already.
So, you've only to wait the popup...
Also other phone didn't get the OTA atm, but they are waiting

By other phones you mean other International models? If yes, i probably just have to wait.
But the thing is. I'm worried about that firmware that i flashed? or shouldn't i worry about that.

Update:
Relocked my bootloader, flashed stock recovery, and i received the new 4.3 update.
Now im on firmware 3.62. Managed to S-OFF.
Removed Tampered, and got my device back to LOCK. Seems everything worked perfectly, and there are no traces that i messed with my device
Out of curiosity are you planning on going back to s-on?
I'm hboot 1.55 stock Rom, stock recovery and firmware updated from 1.44 to 1.55 via various ota's. Is it safe to s on from this?

I think it would be safe, but why would you? Some devices even ship with S-OFF right out the factory, so doing it for warranty reasons would be useless. But then again, each country handles this differently.

why not just leave your device as it is and flash a custom 4.19 rom?
most of the posts in this thread are from people who have screwed up their device trying to relock and RUU.

Have you tried flashing the RUU your device came with? Then OTA update to latest
now i'm on custom rom, S-OFF, Unlocked, Rooted and hboot downgraded (1.44) so at this point i can flash the ruu.exe for my htc one (x.401.x.x) but still i don't know if i'll manage to get it back to the Cosmote rom (had some cool programs installed on it)..

if you want to go back to stock and you have s-off and 1.44 hboot then the only thing you need to do is to download and run the 1.28.401.7 ruu.exe from htc1guru.com
it will wipe your phone and restore to stock rom and stock recovery. you will still be s-off. Just don't forget that if you want to remove the tempered flag, you should do it before the ruu

Hi Folks,
Have seen a few other threads where people are having issues with returning to stock, but not sure whether my particular hurdle has come up on there so thought I'd put in a new thread to get some help.
My HTC One was on the Carrier 4.4.3 update, however I wanted to get S-OFF and put it on a generic WWE edition so if/when 5.0 Lollipop comes out, i wouldn't have to wait forever for EE to get it sorted out.
I followed multiple guides online to try and S-OFF but to no avail, I think one of the last OTA's has patched my OS so cannot use rumrunner / firewater or sunshine.
I want to return to stock but am having huge issues finding an appropriate recovery for it. So far i can use one of the ORANG001 Nandroid files to get me back to 2.24.61.1, and the OTA starts to download to start upgrading me. But no matter what stock HTC recovery I flash, the phone gets stuck in a bootloop after it applies the update.
For now I've resorted to using MaximusHD 44.0 with TWRP recovery to get my phone up and running again. but would prefer to return to stock as I'm having issues with certain finance apps that I know do not work at all on rooted apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. :fingers-crossed:

The reason you are having touble with the nandroid and the OTA is your nandoid is a 2.xx version and your firmware version is 6.xx. I could not find a RUU, Guru Reset or nandroid for your version. Hopefully someone has a stock 6.16.61.1 nandroid they can post for you.
@Danny201281 Could you give a hand with this situation.

what error did sunshine finally give you? cause the bad kernel you mentioned earlier shouldn't be the deciding factor, kernel (boot.img) is flashable even without s-off

Hi @nkk71, I just kept getting a 'Bad Kernel' message no matter which ROM/Kernel combination I tried.
Reverted to the stock Nandroid mentioned in my OP, didn't work
Tried MaximusHD (think you recommended that when we spoke on the IRC on Saturday), Still didn't work
Tried multiple different kernels recommended in forums, preyed, still didn't work
Gave up, decided to go back to stock .... started looking like this ->:silly:

Thanks Guys,
Any help i could get will be amazing. Will any of the HTC Kernel Source Codes on http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads be any use? to get a stock recovery?

The majority of items at that site are for building kernels. So, more than likely there are no stock recovery there for your phone.

wait, let me understand you fully: you flashed ROMs and then a custom kernel??
you should just flash stock ROM (includes stock kernel), such as the ones found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759000
(unselect stock recovery, unselect radio, unselect root)
or MaximusHD is also known to work
BUT you should not be flashing any custom kernels!! (bulletproof, elementalX, etc) those will break sunshine's ability to work.

Hi @nkk71,
Could Sunshine have been effected by the firmware version 6.xx that I have? seems to be a bit of a headache that one.

the "bad kernel" shouldn't be one of those errors, even if your device is not compatible, have you read my previous post about not using a custom kernel?

Hi Folks,
Have seen a few other threads where people are having issues with returning to stock, but not sure whether my particular hurdle has come up on there so thought I'd put in a new thread to get some help.
My HTC One was on the Carrier 4.4.3 update, however I wanted to get S-OFF and put it on a generic WWE edition so if/when 5.0 Lollipop comes out, i wouldn't have to wait forever for EE to get it sorted out.
I followed multiple guides online to try and S-OFF but to no avail, I think one of the last OTA's has patched my OS so cannot use rumrunner / firewater or sunshine.
I want to return to stock but am having huge issues finding an appropriate recovery for it. So far i can use one of the ORANG001 Nandroid files to get me back to 2.24.61.1, and the OTA starts to download to start upgrading me. But no matter what stock HTC recovery I flash, the phone gets stuck in a bootloop after it applies the update.
For now I've resorted to using MaximusHD 44.0 with TWRP recovery to get my phone up and running again. but would prefer to return to stock as I'm having issues with certain finance apps that I know do not work at all on rooted apps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. :fingers-crossed:

Well this is embarrassing!!
@majmoz @nkk71 @jcase, I just downloaded Sunshine so i could get a screen shot for jcase ... and the darn thing worked!!!
I literally stayed up all night on Friday till the birds were chirping outside and couldn't get it working and then spent most of the weekend trying to get back to stock, in the end having to make do with the latest version of MaximusHD.
The only thing that has been different for me is that I have run SunShine on the newest version of MaximusHD (4.4.3) rather than the older 4.2.2 version.
I feel like a right idiot right now, I'm really sorry about this guys!.

Hi,
So I have used a guru reset for my Vodafone AU branded HTC One (M7) as there is no RUU for it. I have gone ahead and "relocked" the bootloader (I'm S-ON BTW), and then attempted to run OTA. All works fine until it finished installing the update after which it just goes into a boot loop. I've attempted this twice, both times wiping everything beforehand and installing stock recovery (obviously) and stock radio. Is there something else I need to do to get the OTA to work properly or is it impossible to run OTA using this guru reset.
Any help would be much appreciated.

This was the only stock ROM for Vodafone AU I can find. I originally made a nandroid backup when I first rooted the phone but that has since been accidentally deleted. If you have a more recent version of the stock Vodafone AU ROM that would be much appreciated.
version-main is the most important bit and it's blank :-/ I think older versions of TWRP or CWM had a blank version-main bug? Do you remember what was the last OTA update you took or roughly when? Otherwise, maybe update recovery and see if version-main shows up.
Australian stock unbranded nandroids should also work for you. Go check the Australian users thread for nandroid backups for almost every version (x.x.980.x).
@yatindroid I'm curious about making my own reset ROM. Got any links to info/how to?

I have Ubuntu so its easy to open and extract nandroid backup and compression
open nandroid backup extract system and data/preload folder
Take any reset rom replace its system and data folder to your backup folders
replace boot recovery radio files from same version (extract from OTA firmware)
edit aroma config details version etc with notepad++
now zip all files and its ready nothing much require
I think @Joeisgood99 have reset rom 6.xx.980.x version
Aah pretty simple then. Yeah, I have nandroid backups. In fact I supplied the contents of the reset ROM in question in this thread. My main stumbling block was downloading a reset ROM as htc1guru was down the last couple times I thought about doing this.

ok i will send build base zip
@deeevan & @yatindroid.
I'm away from my computer until Friday so can't upload my aroma reset to stock until then.
I never uploaded it coz I haven't had a chance to test it ( deeevan understands why) as 6.11.980.12 is still the latest OTA for Optus Australia, and that's the version my reset will take you back to.
When I get home I'll post a link on the Aussie m7 thread and I'll pm the link to you as well yatindroid in case u need to pass on to others. @deeevan below is the link (go back a page or two,) where @alray walks me through how to make your own aroma reset. All u need is a RUU/OTA of what version u wanna go back to, any old aroma reset .zip and @alray s detailed instructions and your set.

Sorry for resurrecting an old zombie thread, but after a few days of searching the forums and multiple flashes and resetting of my phone (HTC One m7, Australia Vodafone), this has been the thread closest to my own issue. Like OP Poster acnak, I am trying to reset my phone to stock using Guru Reset (guru_reset_m7_2-24-980-2.zip) and while it works, when it goes to install an OTA when it reboots it gets stick in a boot loop.
I have looked for a more recent reset but can't find one. Can someone point me in the direction of one, or give pointers on how to make one myself from one of the ota I have downloaded... or something equally as easy but obscure that I haven't found it yet.

You can't use that guru reset rom to restore your phone, its way to old, your phone is running the 7.21.980.22 firmware so you would need a 7.21.980.2 or 7.21.980.22 guru reset rom and unfortunately there are no guru reset roms for 7.xx.xxx.x version. You can't make a guru reset rom from an ota update. ota updates are only patches, not the entire system and even if it would be possible to do it, you would have the same problem since the reset rom wouldn't match your firmware version.
Simply flash the 7.21.980.22 RUU using instructions from here
This will reset your phone back to 100% stock.

Many thanks on the link and info. I followed the instructions but got the following fail message
Code:

FAIL12 signature verify fail
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
From my understanding this means there are issues with my bootloader version which is 1.61.0000. Is there anyway to change this, or an alternative file that corresponds with my hboot version?
