Hi Guys, I'm not really a advanced user but i require help in an easy to understand guide. I have a htc one which was on three uk, i changed to a google edition and then backed up back to sense through recovery. However, i now cannot install updates when i do try installing them it takes me to the recovery screen. how do i go back to actual stock rom? would be great help. this is the image that i have took in terminal on my mac of the device as it has all the information there. thanks guys would appreciate it.

Just flash a HTC stock rom in recovery.
Here is a link to the stock rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752

Thanks for the reply, how do i actually flash it? What software do i need?

There is an app in play store callad .. flashify .. just download it and also download the recovery.img file from the link given in above reply and just flash that recovery image with that app... and done ... you have stock recovery now....

Thanks mate, will I need to put recovery files onto the phone storage first? Currently my phone is rooted by following your method will it become unrooted? I assumed I had to go through boot loader and command prompts in order to put stock ROM. Thanks for the help

If you flash the revolution stock it will become unrooted, but you can re-root afterwards. To flash it you can put the zip on your internal storage (/sdcard) and then boot to recovery. I assume you have either TWRP or CWM installed? From there you can install the stock ROM.
I have a Three HTC One too and am running the GPE Revolution ROM without any issues. Are the updates you are trying to install for the ROM or for apps?

I cant remember which one it was i think it was TWP? How do i find out? I was getting a software update, thats why i want to go back to unrooted. So if i use flashify and the ROM it should work?
Do i only put the odexed zip file onto the storage? What about the recovery img file?

From the top of the ARHD post:
With odexed version you can download and flash OTA from HTC (you need stock boot.img and recovery.img as well)

So if you want to receive over the air updates (OTA) you need the recovery and boot. I don't know where you get the boot from, but I am sure you can find it if you look for it.
Here's some info on how to return to stock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45432325&postcount=2
It's probably just a software update for the ROM that's failing. Go back to stock if you want, but you might want to try ARHD which works really well, and is a very popular, near stock ROM.

All that stuff won't work for you, you are on H3G__001 (2.24.771.3), the .401. roms wont get you any OTAs.
Just flash this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-771-3-zip/
Here's a small walkthrough: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47085377&postcount=44 EXCEPT in your case select "stock recovery" and "stock radio", to get OTAs
My humble opinion.

Yeah, but I really don't understand why so many want to return to stock, with those amazing custom ROMs around. Then again, not my call.

To answer you quickly: no, same procedure won't work, yours is going to be a bit longer and slightly tougher, but you have S-Off, so it's doable.
Just to confirm, you want to go back to original Three UK (CID H3G__001) Sense 5 based ROM? If so you'll have to give me a bit of time to write things up for you.
Out of curiosity: why would you want to go back to stock

I would really appreciate that if you can find the time.
Yes I literally want it as I opened it out of the box. This is only because I need to return to store due to dead pixels. I literally do not want Three or HTC to be able to tell I modified a thing?

That is not a problem please do not rush yourself. I am in the process of speaking with Three about a solution to this (so I am not without a phone for a few weeks) and so expect that to take at least this week to get solved anyway.
Thanks again.

First off: the below procedure is going to wipe everything off your phone, so backup anything you need to your PC!!
Step 1: go back to Sense 5 Stock
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 (two underscores)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> and confirm CID is HTC__001
Run the following RUU, to downgrade to stock Sense 5: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
This will completely return you to 100% stock Sense 5, but European unbranded version.
Step 2: go back to H3G__001
fastboot oem writecid H3G__001
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> and confirm CID is back to H3G__001
Step 3: restore H3G nandroid
download CWM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-m7ul.img
you should now be in CWM recovery.
download this nandroid: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-h3g__001-1-28-771-x-2013-04-09-zip/
extract the zip on your PC, it will give you a folder called "2013-04-20.21.00.00" place it in your adb folder then push it:
adb push 2013-04-20.21.00.00 /data/media/clockworkmod/backup/2013-04-20.21.00.00
in recovery select RESTORE, it should show you the above backup, so select "2013-04-20.21.00.00" and restore it.
You still need to get the preloaded stock apps (which get deleted when unlocking using HTCdec), so download this:
http://loadbalancing.modaco.com/download.php?file=one-1.28.401.7-preloaded-modaco-withoutmovie.zip
adb push one-1.28.401.7-preloaded-modaco-withoutmovie.zip /data/media/
in recovery, select "install zip" -> "choose zip" -> and install the above file
Step 4: get back stock recovery
the above nandroid may or may not contain stock recovery, but I doubt it does, so get this: http://d-h.st/uGM
now let's reboot to bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery recovery 1.28.401.7.img (closest one to your version)
fastboot erase cache
Step 5: let's get rid of TAMPERED (if it's there) and set you back to LOCKED (not relocked)
fastboot boot recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.5-m7ul.img
download this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_bootloader_reset_1-0-zip/
adb push Guru_Bootloader_Reset_1.0 /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, and since you're still in CWM, go ahead and:
-> "wipe cache"
-> "advanced" -> "wipe dalvik"
then
adb reboot bootloader
and confirm no TAMPERED and LOCKED status
Step 6: get your 1st OTA
finally (almost) to confirm everything is back to 100% stock, reboot your phone, and set up only basic stuff such as WiFi, check for software update and download & install the 1st one only!
Since recovery is not exactly your version, you may need to reboot your phone manually if it doesnt by itself: the progress bar stopped somewhere in the middle -> press and hold POWER + VOLDOWN, when it reboots keep holding VOLDOWN to get back to stock recovery and let it finish it's business; repeat if it gets stuck again
After finishing the OTA, boot up your ROM, and check you Settings->About to confirm you new version, then reboot to bootloader and do a fastboot getvar all, and confirm firmware and hboot are also updated
Step 7: if YOU decide to go S-On
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
reboot 3 times and make sure it doesnt say "tamper detected - rebooting" and then shows TAMPERED again
as far as I know, this was introduced in hboot 1.55
I really think I should start a universal guide, hmmm
EDIT: I'm sleepy so I hope I didnt forget anything!!
EDIT2: I'll post credits to all those links when I get a chance, sorry guys

OTA update problem!!

Hi guys, yesterday my htc one downloaded android 4.4.2 update(4.19.401.11) which is about 308.24 MB.

1- firmware.zip won't open with Windows Explorer because it's a signed firmware package, this is expected
2- "/system/framework/core.odex" has unexpected contents -> it's either not there or not stock, the OTA will not go through, if all the conditions are not met 100%

3. I dont understand what you mean by this question? i u mean why are you staying on stoke firmware than my answer is i m already using different roms and mods in my galaxy s and galaxy s3, so i thought at-least one phone should be in stock..

Can i only flash that core.odex file? i dont want to download that huge file because i have slow internet speed. i can transfer that to my website server extract it there any download only core.odex file(doing this will only take few minutes because my website server possibly could download within minutes). or do i have to flash whole guru reset?

OTA updates variables

Hi,
I'm on stock rom, stock recovery, custom kernel, unlocked bootloader and root... will I receive sense 6 OTA update?
By the way, which variable (custom kernel or custom recovery or uunlocked bootloader or root or other..) affects and locks OTA updates?
Thanks

Pretty sure you need stock kernel. Also you have to have all of the original contents of /system.
Root, s-OFF, unlocked boot loader, none of those matter. Generally.

I've found that with the T-Mobile US OTA updates, anything but pure stock (except for S-OFF) will result in a failed update. I run the stock ROM but have it rooted. I reflash the stock recovery, relock the bootloader, have even "unrooted" the phone, but the OTA will still fail. Only way I can get OTA to work is to install the last RUU.zip (for the 3.24.531.3 update), then it will update to 4.19.531.10 and then to the latest 5.14.531.1.
Evidently T-Mobile encodes their OTAs to be exceptionally picky about updating.

eheh no, I'm already S-OFF

Pretty sure you need stock kernel. Also you have to have all of the original contents of /system.
Root, s-OFF, unlocked boot loader, none of those matter. Generally.

Hi,
I'm on stock rom, stock recovery, custom kernel, unlocked bootloader and root... will I receive sense 6 OTA update?
By the way, which variable (custom kernel or custom recovery or uunlocked bootloader or root or other..) affects and locks OTA updates?
Thanks

Custom kernel will also block the OTA notification? With my current setup, how will I know if I'm able to update?

That, I don't know. For that matter, it looks like I have some more learning to do on the part I thought I *did* know. Let's see what nkk71 has for us. That's what the forums are all about, sharing information

I'm being lazy here, sorry ,but I did promise to post something
A) when do you receive and OTA notification:
1- the ROM fingerprint, CID, and MID must match (if) available OTA
2- does anything else matter (root, kernel, modifications, S-On/S-Off, etc., even recovery) -> NO, but they may below
B) the OTA updater-script
you need to be on stock recovery, custom recoveries will not work!
what will it check:
1- the ROM fingerprint, CID, and MID
2- if you pass those, the OTA will check the actual system files (thousands of them) using SHA-1 hash to confirm they are as expected. Why? because OTA is just a patch (diff) between two versions, so in order to patch a file (as opposed to replacing it), it has to be an exact match.... if even 1 out of those thousands of files is not as expected, the OTA will not work. ---> stock recovery will change to red triangle.
Note: this also usually includes the /data/preload folder which gets deleted when using HTCdev unlock.
what will it do if the above are OK:
* the OTA will patch the existing files
* delete any files no longer part of the update
* install any new files that come with the update
* and finally update the firmware (hboot, recovery, kernel, thouchscreen drivers, bootsplash, etc.) <- note, since the OTA is an update the firmware.zip will only contain the files that need to be updated, so for example, touchscreen drivers are not included in every OTA, only when necessary.
and to the big question, what will interfere with successful OTA:
any modification to the files the OTA checks (in step 2 above), so:
- does a custom kernel matter (boot.img) -> technically no, but custom kernels may also overwrite certain system files, so in practice yes they may interfere if some stock system file was changed.... not because boot.img is custom, but because the files in /system which got replaced. (so flashing back a stock boot.img will not solve this!!)
- does root matter -> same as above, if the root package modifies any original files then yes, otherwise no
- unlocked bootloader -> No, doesn't matter
- S-On/S-Off -> No, doesn't matter
I may have forgotten a few things, so feel free to add anything I missed
EDIT: red triangle? do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53151895&postcount=23 to find out what is not stock

in A, doesn't matter what your recovery is, but in B, it has to be stock recovery

Ok so step A.
In my case, the update just shows the info in the attached screenshow. How do I know if ROM fingerprint/CID/MID etc. match and are compatible?

where to get the right stock recovery?
at the moment i'm on CWM/TWRP. No custom kernels and whatnot. Plain stock with root + custom recovery.
Anything else required to avoid bricking the phone?

Stock recoveries can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545227
(or you could download the OTA, pull it to your PC, extract the stock recovery from within it, and use that)
Hopefully no brick (but you have to be on a 4.xx firmware with hboot 1.56)
you may loose root, and have to re-root
PS: no need to relock bootloader, keep it unlocked

ok the update is installing now.
crossing finger that it wont brick.
EDIT: well it didn't brick but it looks like it wiped out all my apps, settings etc.
Wtf is wrong with HTC updating procedures damn it?!?!?
btw just before shooting the OTA i had saved a nandroid backup. Can i restore it through TWRP so everything goes back to normal?

that's due to installing stock recovery, sometimes it happens, sometimes not
happened to me the other day too ... though one time i flashed like 4 different stock recoveries and nothing happened
can't you just use Titanium Backup, to restore what you need from the nandroid? because restoring the nandroid will also downgrade your ROM again.

[Q] HTC One M7 OTA Sense 6 Stuck

Hello community,
first of all i want to say that i am now trying to fix my problems since the past 10 hours!
So here it is:
I bought a new HTC One M7 on last saturday. After i done the first steps i checked if there were updates available. So it was. I updated it and after it was done i checked if there is another update. But it wasnt.
So i thought this was the latest and newest firmware and i started to use it.
After a few days i wanted to have sweep2wake. I rooted my device and flashed the Bulletproof 14.2 kernel which is close to stock but with sweep2wake.
Btw i flashed the TWRP recovery.
All went perfect on first try.
On saturday i ordered a case for my HTC One M7 from ROCK with the window on top (which came on monday). I read that i need Sense 6 in order to get it work. But i was on Sense 5.5. I wondered at this point because i updated it on saturday to the latest version. So to make sure i checked it again. And yes there was actually a update to sense 6. But now the problem was that i rooted my device and got custom kernel/recovery. This was a problem.
So first i tried to get back to Stock recovery and relock the phone before updating. (Btw i forgot to get the stock kernel back on). But as i relocked the device, it got stuck in bootloader. Always booting in bootloader. After many trys i got it back to unlock and than i tried to install the update (still with custom kernel). It failed!
Than i thought that i just could restore my backup ( backup was made before i rooted my device with adb) but this doesnt help to install the OTA Update.
I also tried to restore my nandroid backup from TWRP but the problem was, after i restored the ADB backup the nandroid update wasnt on my device. But i saved it on my PC. Now the problem was that i couldnt copy any files over to my HTC M7! :crying:
I tried so many things to get it back to work but its still not working. So i cant copy over my nandroid backup or other things.
Adb push doesnt work too.
Next problem is that i cant find original RUU for my device.
Here is what my bootloaderscreen says:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
M7_UL PUT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-4A.26.3263.18
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Apr 21 2014, 15:48:24. 0
My firmware (looked up in settings) is: 4.20.111.21
CID: T-MOB101 DE
And there is NO RUU for this device on the internet. This made me sad. Btw after the restores the Bulletproof kernel is still on device.
So i hope you can help me get this Sense 6 OTA Update on this Phone and help to get back the ability to copy things from my pc to my phone.
If you need data from me just post the needed ones.
Now the only thing i can do is wait for your helpful answers.
Sincerely YaaOmo

Follow this post on what to do when you don't have an OS. This will help you get your phone working and talking to your computer. When you get this up and running, we can then address updating your phone.

Which ROM? I dont have Stock ROM and i don't know where i can get it.
And btw i tried to adb push (like i said?) in TWRP after 20 mins i canceled it. Do i need to wait longer?
And my system IS running but not on Sense 6. Sorry if i didnt mention it.

The thought on the ROM was to put your backup that is on your PC onto your phone. You say your system is running but is it communicating with your phone? If it is then you should be able to run both ADB and FASTBOOT commands. If not, then you might need to install new HTC drivers.
@djtrex If you have a nandroid backup of your stock rom 4.20.111.21 could you post it for Yaaomo? Thanks!

ATM i CAN use adb and fastboot but i cannot plugg it into my PC and copy paste files (for example mp3 or zip or whatever).
What do you mean with if my system is communicating with my phone?

When you plug your phone to the computer, in Device Manager you should see Android USB Devices -> My HTC. If you don't then you need to re-install your HTC drivers. If that doesn't work then you will need an OTG cable so you can hook up an USB drive to your phone to put files on it.

To take OTA's you need a couple of things
1. Stock ROM
2. Stock Recovery
3. And I believe a locked bootloader.
You cannot have anything custom at all.
If you didn't take an nandroid backup of your stock rom you will have to try and find one on the web, or maybe via GURU1.
Install stock ROM, flash stock recovery through fastboot.. once flashed fastboot erase cache, relock your bootloader then you should be back 100% stock and should b able now to get OTA's.
good luck

WIth all the conversation above, I think its now simple. Just do this in the order.
1. Copy the nandroid backup you did before rooting on the Phone, in the exact location.
2. Now boot into recovery, and restore the backup. I suppose this will also restore the stock kernel. reboot the device and check in the settings ->about. If not, find the stock kernel in the forums and flash that through recovery.
3. flash the stock recovery. (you'll easily find in the forums).
4. lastly lock the bootloader.
reboot, find for updates and update your phone. It will happen smoothly.

Hi, first of all thanks for your answer. I know the required things to do OTAs. But again i dont know why, i can see my phone in device manager and i can go on sdcard but i cant copy things over. It says "Copy pprozess canceled".
I tried to restore my nandroid backup with OTG. It was successful but i got the custom Bulletproof kernel. And yesterday i searched (like i said) for Stock ROM/Kernel but it doesnt exist for my device. So thats a problem.

I think your only solution at this point is to extract the boot.img file from the International (4.19.401.11) firmware. You can find stock firmware packages at this site. I would think your phone will boot up with it since lot of the custom roms use this as their base. If that doesn't work or you don't want to try it, then I would try to get S-OFF. Then you could change your CID & MID (if necessary) to flash the Int'l RUU. Then you will be able to get the latest updates a little quicker.

You need to get S-OFF first or the RUU will not run. Here is the site for firewater S-OFF, read the instructions and prerequisites very carefully. If you follow @nkk71 Guide for Going Back to Stock on how to flash a different branded RUU. Just stop following the guide after you flash the RUU and start receiving the OTA.

Give rumrunner a try. Some S-OFF schemes work on some phones and not others. If you can not get S-OFF, then you will have to install a custom rom unless someone can get you a stock nandroid.
Could you post a fastboot getvar all with the imei and serial number blocked or erased? Also, update your recovery to twrp-2.7.1.2 there are changes made to this version which would have eliminated the missing OS.

I flashed the new recovery but there is still no OS.
EDIT: I now got a custom ROM on my phone. ARHD. In some formus they said the combination of Bulletproof 14.2 and ARHD 71.1 can make the phone to S-OFF. Didn't work for me. So my last question is if i can get S-OFF with another tool or is it atm not available for my phone?

look you original cid o T-MOS101 and roms *.**.111.* so you cant intall roms HTC_001 *.**.401.*
try this one Guru Reset M7 2.24.111.3
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-111-3-zip/
in aroma instal also stock recovery and radio
good luck
ps also read that http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/

[Q] need some help by updating my m7

hey I want to update my htc one to 4.4 and get rid of twrp.
I´ve unlocked it via htcdev and installed twrp.
i have got s-on
hboot 1.54.0000
CID vodap120 (as far as i know this is still the orginal one)
can I just relock the phone or do i need stock recovery? (hop I´m useing the coreced terms here :/ )
if so can I follow this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545227.
I remeber that I had to download some drivers when I unlocked the phone and I dont think that they are still on my computer. could someone send me a link to them?
thanks

You don't want to lock the bootloader unless you plan to reflash an RUU. with it unlocked you will just need to reflash to the stock recovery and then do your update. Are you trying to run an ota to 4.4?
Here is a link to drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232799

This tool might be easier to use and quicker for getting the required ADB & Fastboot tools. Here is what is required to receive an OTA update. And yes, you will need your stock recovery installed. However, since you are on a lower hboot, it might be more beneficial to S-OFF first before the 4.4 update. S-OFF gives you more options going forward.

I couldn't agree more. the ability to change CID and flash any available RUU while bootloader unlocked is a huge advantage if you like to be adventurous with your devices' software.

first of all thanks for the quick reply
so more detail:
right know I´m getting the information that there has been an update issue.
I´m running on 4.2.2 (the software number is 2.24.161.1(I dont know how important that is or what it actually is)
after clicking on software-updates he told me that I can download 3.63.161.6
yes I want to make an ota update
need to reflash to the stock recovery
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
how do I do that. I need a file for that am i right? Which is the right one for me?
after reflashing stock recovery do i need to do something else.
oh yes i forgot to mention that i have super su. is that a problem?
ps I dont need advantages because I decided that I wont do any changes improvements to my system

First, read this post about OTA Updates.
Next, you need to download two OTA files from this site. The 2.24.161.1 OTA and the 3.63.161.6 OTA will be used to update your phone.
After downloading the first (2.24 OTA) open up the zip and find the firmware.zip file. Open the firmware.zip and extract the recovery.img file from it. This file is your stock recovery. You flash it like you did your custom recovery by placing it in your ADB/Fastboot folder. Here are the steps:
In bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Relock your bootloader with this command in FASTBOOT USB: fastboot oem lock
You can follow the steps in this post on Manually Installing OTAs.
Please read everything at least twice. If you don't understand something then don't hesitate to ask!

much simpler way, as unlocking the bootloader deletes some files required to update, just leave twrp on your phone for the time being, and download this rom ive linked below, if your phone is currently booting up, then just plug it into the computer and move the zip file to your internal storage, then reboot into recovery and install it like you would do with any other rom, during the aroma installer, select wipe data, install stock recovery and install stock radio, upon reboot, you couldn't be anymore stock.
