Question I want to root my gpe edition htc one. But i want to keep stock recovery for future updates from Google. Is it possible to put TWRP then root then switch back to stock recovery and keep root and still have the ability to get future updates from Google? And if so how do i revert back to stock recovery

Hello,
How do I get OTA updates back on my N1 after rooting/unlocking and using a custom rom. What rom do I need to use to get OTA back?
Thanks
I too would like to know this.
You can't. You need stock recovery.
The only thing I have to do is flash stock recovery?
Is it even worth it
Why do you need OTA when the devs have given you the ability to update via .zip files?
You can easily go back to stock recovery using ROM Manager in the market.
I have cyanogen mod 7.0 on my nexus one and I want to restore to its original ROM(Google ROM) also I installed rom manager on my phone ?
How can I do it ?
If I do it can I get latest update from Google?
Use the Nexus One Wiki http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...des_&_Tutorials#Unroot_.2F_Restore_your_Nexus
or you can fastboot flash the N1 system images available at developer.htc.com
To be able to successfully update OTA directly from Google you will need to revert to stock recovery & GRI40
You don't need stock recovery for the OTA...
Why not just go and flash one of those vanila AOSP rom's? then you have almost the stock nexus feel but still keep the root and stuff like that.
Why you want to go back to stock anyways? is it just for OTA? cause those cumstum vanila roms are higher/newer version than what the OTA update would give you at the moment.
hi my version main is 2.24.61.1 orange uk i updated to 4.2.2 sense rom before i rooted.
i am now looking to unroot & revert back to stock & wondering do i need to find the same rom or can i go back down to 4.2.1 or an older rom?
or can i just use any UK htc one m7 stock rom to revert back to factory settings?
i also did a backup of my stock rom before i changed my rom using TWRP, could i just use that to go back to stock?

Yes, but depending on what recovery you backed up with TWRP, you might need to also flash the stock recovery.img if you're looking for that to. You might want to re-lock your boot loader also.. Depends on how 'stock' you want it to be.
In short, restoring your backup will get you back to stock ROM and unroot (if you were unrooted when you backed it up)

i was rooted when i flashed so flashing stock recovery.img will get my stock recovery back & also is the only way to remove the tampered is by doing s-off or RUU?
I might be bringing up the same topic from the Grave. If yes, then please bare with me.
I currently on the Viper ROM with my HTC M7(European Version).
I want to go back to stock and I kind of figured out on how to do it.
I juts had few queries for you guys:
I need to S-OFF, lock the bootloader and run RUU for Stock as far as I understood. Is that right?
Now, if I am successful with the above step of getting my stock ROM on my M7, will I continue to get all the stock OTA updates from HTC like the 4.4.2 Kitkat update + sense 6? Or will i be required to do a manual update all the time?
Thanks in advance for your support.
Cheers

You will receive OTAs as normal after an ruu and can flash them as long as you stay with stock recovery and do not mess with anything in /system or stock apps in /data (just use titanium backup or similar to freeze the apps instead of removing them).
If you want, make a backup of stock recovery (or find a recovery.img to flash when OTA comes) and use a custom recovery to make a nandroid backup that way you can root and mess with /system and /data as wanted and restore the backup and flash the stock recovery when you update.

I rooted all the way back on 4.2.2 1.11.707.1 and I have cwm now. All the old stock recovery links I could find are dead and the custom roms all seem to require updated stock to be able to flash them. How would I go about updating by ota?
