[Q] I really did it now.... - Sprint HTC One (M7)

I was trying to flash a new ROM (Viper One) and followed the instructions to update the firmware. I got as far as getting into the fastboot and relocking the device so I could update the firmware to the latest version (per the instructions). I tried to no avail to unlock the bootloader and came across a thread saying I need to have a stock kernel to unlock the bootloader again. What I didnt count on was that the previous custom kernel was still loaded on the device even though I did a factory reset (again per instructions). I have searched for a stock 4.3 kernel but cant find one so I can finish this.
Ideas?
Thanks so much, in advance!

Thanks!
I was able to get my phone back to where it was before (viperOne ROM thats running v 4.1.2 and Sense 5.0). I am trying to get this back to stock before I take to Sprint to replace the phone for the purple camera bug.
I guess what Im looking for is the stock kernel for v4.1.2 so I can then flash it and take it in. The one you had linked to was for v4.4.x and will not work.
Thanks in advance!

Since, I don't know which version you are looking for you can pull the kernel out of the firmware for that version. You can check this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2576995 or this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658910.

Returning back to stock while keeping root

Hi everyone!
This is my first post, since I never had any trouble toying around with my device. I have a rooted Incredible S, that ran MIUI perfectly. I want to return back to stock (this is imperative) and use the official ICS by HTC. I tried putting back my nandroid backup, which didn't work (perhaps an incompatible radio? I have no idea...). That's when I downloaded a stock, cracked ROM from a thread I found here. This is a Gingerbread ROM with Sence 3.0 I think. Obviously, I can't get the OTA to work. I think the issue here is that my recovery is still CWM, and that OTA only works with the stock recovery (this is what I concluded from research).
This is where I'm having trouble. A RUU doesn't seem to recognise my device, so that's not an option right now. Windows recognises my SD card when I hook up my phone through USB, so I can install ROMs just fine. Is there any way to get the stock recovery and the stock ROM without using a RUU, while keeping my device rooted? I really want all of this to be stock, so no mods, hacks or tweaks. I want my phone to be in the same state as when I bought it and rooted it, before installing custom ROMS. Is this possible?
Many, many thanks in advance!

Hey mate, official welcome from me Second welcome from me today lol
I would advise against going s-on and fully stock.
You cannot run a ruu or ota with a custom recovery/root.
So the easiest way to get the stock experience you want is by flashing one of tpbklake's rooted stock roms. They are basically stock roms with root and can run on a custom recovery. No tweaks or anything

The link above (top one) is based off a newer ruu from asia, although there is not much difference
I would also suggest to try ARHD 3.0.x for the stock optimised rom
Also which bootloader version do you have?

Yes there a some ROMs in the Development section that are completely stock that you can flash through recovery.
The original GB 2.3.3/Sense 2.1, the GB 2.3.5/Sense 3.0 and the latest ICS 4.0.4/Sense 3.6

I'm going to sell my device so I need it back the way it was. I want to keep it rooted though, so that the next owner can decide for himself what he wants to do with it. If he he's no techie, he can enjoy the device in stock (including OTAs, or can this be done like you mentioned?). If whe wants to toy with it, he can do that too. If it's easier to just go back to stock entirely, that's fine too.
It seems that I can no longer get into hboot now? After installing that hacked gingerbread, my device just boots into Android when pressing volume down and power??
tpbklake, I'll try to flash one of those when I can get back into recovery
Weird.. Taking out the battery fixed my recovery issue. I'll flash that ROM
Btw I seem to have hboot 6.13.1002 and radio 3805.06.03.03_M. Is this the info you need?

Yes
But since you want stock it won't matter
You CANNOT have both root and ota updates
Either one or the other unfortunately
You have to make a choice a rooted stock ROM will be identical to the official ota from htc but you will be able to keep root, but can't get ota updates
but unfortunately I think sense 3.6 4.0.4 is the last update
But, I have been proven wrong before

K then in my case a full stock device would be best. How do I get started with this? First install a stock ROM, then the stock recovery and then put It back in S-OFF? Which ROM should I install (would prefer the stock 2.3.3)? And where can I find the recovery? Sorry for the basic questions but those lists of ROMs can get a bit complicated..
Still getting nowhere If I flash a stock ROM in CWM, my recovery won't go back to stock, will it? Shouldn't I try to get the stock recovery first and then use a RUU? Problem is that I can't seem to find a stock recovery anywhere. And when I extract the ROM from a RUU, it's only about 180 MB, so that can't be right, can it?

Ah, perfect! Canceled my download, but there's a 20 minute interval before starting a new one, so it'll take me at least an hour to download it.
I've encountered this issue before, but randomness seemed to solve it back then: a fastboot command just displays "<waiting for device>" and then keeps hanging there. "fastboot devices" returns an empty line, so that's consistent. Phone is in fastboot USB mode, so I'm not sure what could be the issue?
And then I have a question. In that guide, it says that I should extract HBOOT.img from the rom I installed. In my case, my rom only contains a file named "hboot_1.13.0000_CRC_8a731c6e_0401.img" (along with others of course, but I assume they are redundant in this step); will that one do?

Sounds like it may be a port issue, cable issue or driver issue on the PC.
Have you tried different ports or a different cable? Do you have HTC Sync running in the System Tray on the PC?
As for the hboot file, yes that is the one.

No I wanted it back the way I wanted it. Rom, recovery,... all stock. But surely I'll give ICS a testdrive via OTA

Recent battery issues - Time to update (ICS?)

I took a long break from messing with my phone. I stopped right about the same time ICS came out. I never upgraded. Now that I have battery issues, it is time to refresh my ROM. I am also getting a new battery. I was looking into getting the stock rooted ROM for my phone (2.3.4 with Sense 3.0). I am finding more and more ICS ROMs so I think that is where I should go.
I am currently unlocked with HBOOT 1.83.0014 with CWM-based Recovery v5.5.0.4.
I found the SuperGuide and it walks through relocking and reflashing the stock ROM, but the linky for the RUUs doesn't have my Gingerbread ROM. Can I relock and flash the ICS ROM?

You may need to read the ICS - WARNING!!! READ BEFORE UPDATING!!! (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562890) thread before you start in on any thing. There was an issue with old recoveries and not being able to write over them.
Once you have your new recovery, there is a completely stock rom available (from AT&T), or you could use my stockish rom (link in my sig) based on the AT&T rom with all the bloat taken out, all the features left in, and with a few mods like the option to use the Holics or Faux kernels, and the advance power menu. It's very stable as I absolutely did not include any libs or junk ported from other phones.
Personally, if I were to stay on ICS, I would stay with Holics 1.3, with the kernel from 1.2. That was the most stable my phone has ever been (besides while running my rom of course, but I only used it for a few weeks as I have been able to use JB as my daily driver for a few months now )

[Q] Stock recoveries - The right one, their behavior and the risks of flashing them

Hi, I have an Unlocked 32GB HTC One (BS_US001) and I'm having a hard time trying to find info about stock recoveries.
My phone currently is on stock 4.1.2, bootloader unlocked, S-Off and rooted. I was using the TWRP recovery, used to root my phone. Since the 4.3 update came out, I was searching for the stock recovery to proceed with the update, but too many different files seems to exist. I just want to install the right recovery and apply the 4.3 update, no full ROM flash.
Yesterday I flashed this recovery file (9MB) and got icons similar of those on the right of this image.
Today, I flashed this one (7.9MB) and got something like this, the little android icon.
Later, I've found another one (9.8MB).
Edit: and another one, a few bytes shorter than the third.
But now I'm little afraid of flashing again, just for the sake of it.
So, first of all, which one is the right file for my phone (yet another one)?
Second, I flash recoveries through fastboot command line (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img). Can this method and command brick my phone?
Third, how the stock recovery behaves on your phone? Both times, when I flashed the files and entered in recovery mode, my phone would boot 2 or 3 times straight into recovery mode again, until it boot itself properly, into the system. Also, recovery mode goes from the green to the red icon and awaits until I reboot the phone again.
Thanks in advance.
Final edit: For the sake of others lost in the lack of good info, I'm editing this old post.
I found some crap advices here and there. One of them was the need to relock the bootloader to accept OTAs. It doesn't make any sense, but if you are seeking help, you will take **** as good advice. Don't do it.
Another bad advice was about the stock recovery. Just open the last update you got (Downloads folder on your phone or get the OTA from HTC website) and extract the recovery.img file. Flash it and you have the proper stock recovery for your phone.
All of this is about the stock HTC One - no custom roms, no xposed changes, nothing. The only thing I did prior to this was to flash TWRP and root. That's how I want my phone for now - stock with root.
I kind of went through this today. Ended up just wiping it, running a RUU and reapplying OTAs.
I'll tell you this… after I went through this I attempted to salvage the stock recovery before rerooting etc. I was stuck trying to get fastboot to boot a recovery instead of flash one. I did find an alternate way to harvest the recovery. I got it out of the ota. I'm not done testing it yet, but my phone was still showing tampered. Flashed cwr and called it a day at that point
Sent from my HTC One
Thank you for your answer. I'm trying to avoid the whole RUU thing, but I'll keep it as a last resource, for sure. Also, I'm trying to understand more about this piece of software called recovery.
The one I sent you is pulled directly from stock 1.29.1540.16 for Dev. edition, which comes with an unlocked bootloader as well. Also, it's signed, which will allow it to be flashed whether you're s-on or off. Assuming your MID is PN0712000, with CID BS_US001, this recovery is your stock and will work. Hope it helps.

I've been running into similar issues. For the previous 2 OTA's (1540.3 --> 1540.16 & 1540.16 --> 1540.17), simply reflashed stock recovery, ran the OTA, it updated, then I flashed TWRP again. For the most recent OTA (3.22.1540.1, I think), that seems to not be working, but I can't seem to find the right recovery. I've found 1540.3's recovery, but not 1540.16 (or .17 if there was a new recovery in that OTA). Where did you end up finding it?
Thanks!

Has anyone else flashed stock recovery while on custom ROM? I was pleasantly surprised to discover my SD card was wiped Is this normal, and was there some way I could have figured out this was what was going to happen? I don't really understand what stock recovery does/is for. The only other time I'd flashed stock recovery was after restoring to stock ROM from nandroid.

[Q] Need help Please with uk unbranded stock

Hi I've had my HTC one since june/july and decided I get on the rooting bang wagon.
Managed to unlock bootloader and everything looked fine, tried to install kitkat rom and well it went down hill from there as it wouldn't install and after that wouldn't do anything other than reload into cwn recovery. I'd not done a back up like a clown or took note of any of my firmware, kernel versions. managed to learn how to push rom via adb and fastboot. thing is I panicked as I did'nt want a bricked fone and stuck on stock odex rom.
its runs fine but would really like to have uk unbranded rom and firmware back on or atleast know where to find it before I attempt to stick either google edition software or kitkat again but hopefully a little more succesful. I've also now managed to s-off

As you managed to s-off, there are 2 ways. The first being to run the 1.28.401.7 RUU (http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_ul_jb_50_htc_europe_1-28-401-7_radio_4a-13-3231-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/), to downgrade and then update to the latest.
Or easier way would be to flash the latest 3.62.401.1 GURU RESET ROM here: http://www.htc1guru.com/2013/10/guru-reset-3-62-401-1-stock-rom/ That includes the options to go to complete stock.

[Q] HTC Vivid Bootloop, Unlocked bootloader, S-On, TWRP installed.

Hi,
I got this phone today, and unlocked the bootloader using the htcdev website. I then flashed a rom, and wiped, and then flashed the boot.img using fastboot. It worked fine, but the cyanogenmod nightly wasn't very stable. I decided to flash a different rom, but I couldn't get anything else to work. The roms, now including the previous rom, don't boot past their boot animations and shut down and boot again. Any help would be much appreciated!
Also, when I power down from the bootloader it tries to start up again. I have to pull the battery.
Also, it's an AT&T version. ROM recommendations are needed, because I can't get anything to work. :'( Preferably de-sensitized. I've check the dev thread with all the ROMS and links.
Make sure you are doing full wipes for each rom and also flashing the boot image.

I do that

Yeah, I do that, using the factory reset in twrp and then install the rom, and then I flash the boot image using
fastboot flash boot boot.img
which flashes it no problem. I did actually get the cyanogenmod to work, which is interesting.
Update
I've gotten a ROM to work. It's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1428726 A sensed ROM. Hmm...

You need to update to ICS first, otherwise it won't boot any JB or KitKat ROM.
Then S-off your device, it's really easy

Thanks! I'm running the "leaked" RUU which is supposed to update the firmware to ICS, right? Can you provide a link to S-off? I can't find anything. Well actually I can, but I can't understand it. :/

I've changed CiD? because of Vodafone not updating to ICS.
Then upgraded with an AT&T ICS RUU - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2013122
Solved.
