Just do a dirty flash (ie flash without wipe) of the ROM.zip in recovery

Thank for your reply.
I didn't mention it in the first message but I am a complete idiot... here's why :
No zip in phone :/
édit : and obviously as I am a COMPELETE idiot I erased everything from the recovery menu "wipe"

Use Odin to flash the file

Do you have an OTG cable? you could use that.
If not connect your phone (while in recovery) to the PC, and
"adb push <name of rom>.zip /data/media/" (this will take 5 to 15 minutes)
that will put the rom on you phone

Downloading OTA M7 UL JB43 SENSE55 MR HTC Europe 3.62.401.1-2.24.401.8 Release 338160gxmo5sd9337kadux as we speak.
I'll try that in 10mn as it is downloaded

That's on OTA upgrade file, won't help you. You need to flash a ROM on your phone. To get the ROM to your phone, one of three methods:
1- OTG cable
2- adb push
3- adb sideload

thank for being so patient...
I'm looking for a 4.3 zip then adb push

check the development thread for a rom that suits you, download the FULL file (not an OTA), then use adb push to get it to your phone, finally flash it in recovery.

thanks
i went for this one :

you dont need the RUU, just download the odexed or deodexed ROM from the thread you posted.
adb push to your phone
and "install zip" in recovery

Saw your message too late so I am downloading the deodexed.
BUT
I tried the RUU => FAILED TO FLASH -_-
I am a bit concerned... Will it work with the other one ?

yep, it will work. use adb push to get it on your phone, then select "install zip" (or whatever it's called) in recovery, and you're good

"Root" can't really be lost like you hear people talk about in the forums, it just means that the bootloader is unlocked and you've got recovery and a rom that has superuser, recovery and an unlocked hboot means you're free so to speak, from there you can rock on and simply flash a rom and kernel with root access and you're good to go, so don't sweat that message. Once you're back on your real setup you'll be good to go.
tl;dr version, don't panic about not having root you're way past the panic stage (like having a phone that can't be unlocked thats when to panic lol)

HTC one gpe(converted) boot loop after 4.4

Hey all , minutes ago the 4.4 update was downloaded via OTA on my converted GPE htc one. I pressed install and when it went to recovery i get the error message "set metadata recursive" error , and the device dosnt even boot anymore. Any ideas what might be the problem ?

Sounds like you have a custom recovery? If so try stock GE recovery

I have the exact same problem. I can get into the stock recovery but my device is not recognized in fastboot or adb

I got the same error when attempting to sideload 4.4 on my phone which I had previously converted to 4.3 GPE (rooted) using the instructions in the developer's forum. Guess it's time to do a full reflash.

I guess doing a full reflash is not gonna fix it. I would suggest flashing the stock recovery again and give it another shot.

Then why not flash the full 4.4 RUU zip from GPE conversion thread?

seems like lots of issues with 4.4,
from @makbil:
It seems only s-off, 4.4 compatible recovery and a clean flash are required. If all 3 are not met -> bootloop

EDIT: just noticed you're supposed to be 100% stock (converted), so the above quote shouldnt apply to you, i guess, sorry

could someone list the correct things to do to make a clean conversion?
thnaks

I'm also S-off with rumrunner, H-boot 1.54.
Flashed the RUU for 4.4 and all is fine. Luckily I backed up the data I cared about beforehand, just in case.

So, for the past two days, I have been trying to S-Off my HTC One (M7), and it seems I have never been in luck. There was only my last hope with the Insertcoin gpe ROM, and it just opens, I click next in the setup, shuts down, restarts over and over. Basically bricked my phone, I re-installed my last ROM again. I have tried Revone, firewater, moonshine, and rumrunner. All of them didn't work for me. I'm currently running the AICP 4.4.2 ROM. My bootloader is unlocked, I'm rooted, and my hboot is 1.57.0000. I don't see what is the problem with my device. I am trying to get S-Off so I can convert my One into the gpe edition. If you could tell me step by step, thoroughly on how to get S-Off, or even install Insertcoin with S-Off, I will be very grateful. Thanks in advance. PS. Sorry if I posted this in the wrong section, I'm quite new here.

why not try flashing cyanogenmod 11 or my rom, its an older version of my rom but people have reported that firewater works with it, you can download it here

omarx5656 said:
Well, it didn't work, but something has changed. Usually, I used to get to bottle 12 and then it tells me to restart and try again. this time, it gets to bottle 2 and tells me to retry. Is there something else I'm supposed to do to get it to work? Thanks for your reply btw.

What about rumrunner s-off

@omarx5656
Flash bulletproof 14.2 kernel and then firewater step by step and you will get s-off quickly

just take the boot.img from the bulletproof.zip file and flash it manually, flashing the zip in recovery wont work

You can use flash image gui app from play store for kernel flash

.

The best way is to use your originally 4.4.2 stock and then flash only bulletproof 14.2 for 4.4.2 roms

omarx5656 said:
Sorry but, do I need to have Sense or GPE in order to install it? Last time I've tried installing that kernel on a custom ROM, it bricked my device. So, I'm guessing I will need Sense, but do I need to be fully stock or can I just install another custom ROM with Sense such as the ViperOne?

yes its for sense, im not sure about gpe

[Q] Need help with my phone

Well i dun goofed. I tried to flash the furnace kernel to overclock my HTC one m8 but it got stuck on the boot screen with red letters saying "This build is for development purposes only Do not distribute outside of HTC without HTC's written permission Failure to comply may lead to legal action" . So then i went into recovery and wiped everything even the os. to try to fix it now am stuck here with a phone without an OS and dont know how to fix it.
Details on the phone-
Its rooted and has an unlocked bootloader
S-on
Please help me fix my phone

Is the rom.zip still on your sdcard?
If not you can either mount usb storage while booted to twrp or adb push the rom also while in twrp.
BTW you could have dirty flashed the rom and it would have fixed the problem.

Common issue - HBoot 1.56 and trying to achieve S-Off

I'm having the same issue that so many are having. I'm trying to S-Off to convert my htc one m7 to a Google edition.
I have installed the most recent versions of ViperOne and ElementX as my kernel. Each time I run Rumrunner and Firewater I get the errors saying to pray and restart or that my kernel isn't supported.
Right now I'm downloading Bulletproof for and Android Revolution HD to replace my rom and kernel and then will be trying rumrunner again. Should this work probably?
Thanks and sorry, I'm kind of a newb in all of this haha. I've read a ton of other forum posts and tried everything they've had to say, but haven't figured it out.

help :/ I installed ARHD, then wiped Davlick and Cache and then installed Bulletproof and went to reboot phone and now been stuck on the htc one splash screen for ten minutes.... held down power button and capacitive buttons on bottom of the screen flashed..... am I screwed?
EDIT: I ended up getting into recovery and installing the backup I made. Does anyone know where I went wrong though and how I can achieve s-off? Thanks!

You must use twrp 2.6.3.3 to flash arhd!

So I ended up not being able to install the rom. I got the new recovery in, but if you view my other topic, the recovery crashes I believe or the phone does before I can wipe the cache or reboot.
