[Q] Having Trouble Going Back to Stock - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been at this for a couple of days, and have had no luck. So here I am posting for help.
I need to revert a HTC One m7 Sprint to stock for my cousin who bought the phone rooted on swappa. She wants it stock so she can get OTA updates. By stock I mean no tampered flag, no unlocked flag and OTA updates, stock rom and recovery. And I'm having trouble doing so, I have no experience with anything other than Nexus devices.
Current status:
1) Flashed this (Sprint-ONE-3.04.651.2-De-Odex.zip) to the phone using CWM
2) Relocked bootloader (I relocked bootloader so I can use official ROM update utility tool to install (Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_3_04_651_2_RUU)) on phone.
3) Phone won't boot into ROM (can't get past bootloader)
4) Now phone won't even boot into recovery
>>>fastboot oem boot
...
(bootloader) Start Verify: 3

I'm guessing that because S=ON it's checking signature of recovery and failing because recovery isn't stock. If this was a nexus I could just flash the official recovery.img but alas it's not, so I don't know where to turn.
Please tell me how to best proceed.
Thank you and have a nice day.

Can you post the out put of
Code:
fastboot getvar all
Please edit out serial + imei before posting thanks.
You will need s-off to go back to stock 100% with LOCKED bootloader, but if you just want ota's that's possible with s-on you just need Stock recovery and Rom. But best you'll get the bootloader is RELOCKED with s-on.
Also it won't boot custom software when relocked. That's why your recovery and Rom won't boot

Unlock your bootloader, and use CWM to install this Rom. In Aroma installer choose YES to Stock Recovery and Radio. NO to Root.
Reboot the phone to take ota's after you've updated relock the bootloader .
I notice the version main is missing from your getvar also. Installing the ota's may fix it but I should be able to help you with that before you do anything else. It will require the bootloader to be relocked so better to do it now if you want to.

Actually it would be better to unlock, flash the Rom first then relock and flash the firmware to restore the version main.
Then reboot and your done
http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/651/
You can get the firmware here. Download it and rename the file to firmware.zip and put it in your fastboot folder. Then after unlocking and flashing the reset.zip. relock and flash the firmware.
Reboot the phone to the bootloader and Connect fastbootusb. Now open your Fastboot command line and type
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
< --- case sensitive.
The phone will reboot to a black screen with a Silver HTC LOGO. This is RUU mode. Now we're going to flash the firmware.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The first flash will be short. It's just a preupdate preparing the hboot for the new firmware. So we need to do the same command again.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The second flash will take a little longer and this time it will flash the full firmware. The progress bar on the phone screen will not reach 100% this is normal as long as the command window has completed its output the flash is done.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You should now see your new firmware version main in the bootloader and getvar. And that's it reboot and take ota's.

Wait what? Can you explain this reset.zip? Or you copied and pasted the above from somewhere else and that step does not apply to me?

The reset zip will restore your stock Rom and recovery and Radio. But you have to Install it with a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP. Which requires the bootloader to be unlocked. Once it's installed you can take ota updates. The bootloader does not need to be locked for ota's.
Then you can relock and flash the firmware.zip which will restore your version main information. Which is missing. Caused by a recovery bug that wipes that info from the misc partition. Installing the ota updates may fix it. Or you can manually flash the firmware to fix it before you take the ota updates. :good:

Oh sorry when you said reset.zip I thought it was something totally new but you were referring to "Guru_Reset_M7_Sprint_3.04.651.2.zip". My bad.
So I followed the steps above including flashing firmware.zip. Now fastboot getvar all shows main having a version. Currently apps are being downloaded, and I will try to install the ota update after they are all done. And there is stock recovery, I confirmed by launching into recovery from fastboot after flashing "Guru_Reset_M7_Sprint_3.04.651.2.zip" in CWM, and the orange triangle with exclamation point showed up.
Thank you for helping me out!
Also one last thing, to clean everything up, how do I reset the tampered flag? And so it shows locked instead of relocked?
EDIT: First OTA was successful!

You will have to downgrade the phone again yes. And s-off is not so easy to accomplish. Unless you pay $25 for Sunshine app.
If you wanted to return it for warranty or sell the device as un-tampered stock. You can use firewater for or rumrunner to s-off both methods are free exploits but are not so simple to get them to work you will need to unlock flash a custom recovery make a nandroid of the stock rom, then root the device again. Probably need to flash a few different roms + Kernels to find something that works.
There's the possibility that neither will work and your only choice then would be Sunshine.
If there's no warranty and your friend just wants stock with ota updates I would just leave it as relocked unless your prepared to put the work in

I'm not sure about the warranty, but I will leave it as is since it sounds like a headache and I really want to get back to my phone, and flash the new android 5.0 preview to my Nexus
Thank you so much for helping me out, you have good knowledge of this device!

[SOLVED - thx nkk71 !] Wiped everything & S-ON - Please help :(

Hi everybody,
I already checked a lot of threads in xda but it didn't solve my problem so I do it by myself...
Just got a HTC One and when I wanted to install the Google Edition ROM by bigxie with mini SDK, ADB and TWRP... I just messed up:
- OK to unlock bootloader
- S-OFF didn't work
- I accidentaly wiped everything: the OS...
I tried push a ROM with adb push rom.zip /sdcard/rom.zip but it didn't help:
- S-ON didn't allow me to install custom ROMs
- I couldn't turn my phone S-OFF because my PC didn't recognise it anymore + have no OS
- adb devices command didn't see my phone
Then I tried to relock it to install an official RUU from HTC but:
"(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)"
I guess it comes from my HBOOT-1.54, I red we have to be in 1.44 but one more time I can't downgrade my HBOOT because I'm not S-OFF.
Now my HTC One M7_UL is :
* TAMPERED *
* RELOCKED *
*** Security Warning ***
- S-ON
- HBOOT-1.54.0000
Checkmate ?
Thanks in advance...
can you unlock your phone using HTCdev? get a new token and try.

version-main is the firmware version of the phone, just seems it's disappearing a lot last couple of days.
hboot 1.54 has firmware 2.24.xxx.x, so one of the roms I linked will hopefully get you s-off using rumrunner

So I need to push and flash the ROM on TRWP, boot on it and a screen will appear with "WIPE" then "ROOT" and unselect stock recovery ?
Thanks.
NB: When I try to do a Factory Reset in TRWP, it fails with an "Unable to mount cache" error message.
NB1: Can't flash the ROM you gave me. Since I did an "Format Data" wich removes datas & encryption on internal storage, I can't flash anything...
NB2: OK I can't mount /data, /sdcard either...

touchscreen wasnt working because you probably used 6.0.3.1, get the latest from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863 (though that one takes VERY long to backup/restore nandroids), so either get 6.0.3.2 or TWRP if you do nandroids frequently.
It's getting late for me, so have to sign off in a bit, and now that your phone is up and running, we can pick this up tomorrow....
you can try rumrunner now to get yourself s-off.
I'll check back tomorrow....
You can still hit the thanks button on my posts if i helped

I red I didn't need to get myself S-OFF to install a Custom Rom, is it true ?
I'm trying to get the Google Edition ROM again... Without success.
I flash boot.img in fastboot (& make clear cache) + flash the ROM normally (wipe cache + dalvik cache) via TWRP but my device enter in a boot loop when I reboot after installation (I just see the Google language selection, just to make me more frustrated lol...). Same with CyanogenMod.
Root Checker says "Congratulations ! This device has root access" and I unlocked the bootloader so I don't understand...
Maybe because of the CID of my phone is from Orange Poland (ORANGB10) ? I maybe should get S-OFF & Debrand ?
Thanks for your answer.
Definitely do s-off if you can. It may save you if things go south..

However you need unlocked bootloader + custom recovery to install custom ROMs. Not S-off.

I wouldn't , but that's your choice :laugh:
Anyway, I didn't read the thread you linked, but to get OTAs, you need "odexed stock rom", and "stock recovery" for OTAs to work properly,
you also need to change your CID (and possibly MID) to GPe
I think GPE CID is "GOOGL001" and MID is "PN0712000" (I THINK)
So if you're stock rom + stock recovery + correct CID & MID, you'll receive future OTAs just fine,
remember to keep S-Off.
if all good, would you mind editing the main thread title to include [SOLVED]. thanks

How could I verify I'm in stock recovery ?
I flashed it, and now when I click on RECOVERY in BOOT LOADER, it doesn't enter in recovery anymore: get that little Android green toy down with a red triangle.
Ok fine.

"get that little Android green toy down with a red triangle" -> yep, that's stock recovery :good::good:
if you simultaneously and briefly press POWER + VOLUP + VOLDOWN, you'll get to the stock recovery menu (really tiny font). you'll have to try a couple of times to get the timing correctly.

[Q] HTC One relocked after firmware updated now soft-bricked and unable to unlock!

Help!
I recently installed the 4.06.1540.3.zip firmware onto my HTC One in preparation to install Android Revolution HD 41. After installing the firmware, I have been unable to unlock the relocked bootloader. I am able to send commands via fastboot and can successfully send the unlock code but nothing shows up on the phone. I currently have no working OS on the phone and only have stock recovery, it seems, and obviously can't send over a custom recovery until I'm unlocked which I can't do =(.
Please help, I have no phone!

Mike's directions for updating firmware required a re lock.
How to flash?
(bootloader needs to be relocked)
Re-lock your bootloader (this will most probably wipe content of your device)
Copy downloaded .zip to fastboot.exe location (e.g. c:/SDK/platform-tools/fastboot.exe)
Re-name .zip file to firmware.zip
Open command prompt
Boot your device in fastboot mode (vol down + power ===> fastboot)
Connect device to the PC
In command prompt cd to fastboot.exe location
Make sure you have correct modeid and cidnum (type: fastboot getvar all)
Type: fastboot oem lock (if your device is not relocked yet)
Type: fastboot oem rebootRUU and wait for device to reboot
Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
Sometimes flashing for the first time doesn't work, so flash firmware.zip again just to make sure.
Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
Type: fastboot reboot
Unlock your bootloader and flash custom recovery if you are going to use custom ROM.

Yes, and I've received one (and then kept trying and got about 30 more). I can flash it just fine but the screen on my phone never pops up to accept the unlock. This is my issue. There is no error message on the flash. It just doesn't show up and I can't accept the unlock.

S-On, right? :crying:
1- was that a signed firmware package
2- did the update go all the way (ie you flashed it twice in a row, first one came back with "flush again immediately" and you did)
3- you confirmed everything was updated by checking your "fastboot getvar all"
4- bootloader also shows the correct firmware
if yes to above, try a factory reset in bootloader and/or stock recovery, then try a new unlock token, and hope it works.

Yes, S-ON since getting S-OFF on hboot 1.5 is a pain.
I'm almost certain it was a signed firmware otherwise it wouldn't have even be able to have been flashed.
The firmware update was successful, after flashing twice. I can successfully flash that firmware and ..1540.2

I just don't understand why I can't get the popup on my phone. That's what I get for trying to do it the right way, I guess =(.
I'd like to at least get stock back on the phone so I can have a working phone but I can't find an RUU that will work, my firmware is too new for any that I've found. =(
Should have done s-off. No point in modding without it.

I had the same issue with my first HTC One, it was a tmobile version. I ended up having to RUU whick alligned the firmware, hboot, rom, and recovery to the same versions. Boot and go through the setup. shut down. reboot. shutdown. boot into fastboot. create a new user with HTC, submit your token. Reboot your PC. Send the bin file to the device. unlock. powerdown. flash recovery. powerdown. enter recovery. powerdown and accept the install of SU. boot into the stock ROM. powerdown. You should be set to go.

At the time I modded there was no solution for S-OFF for 1.5+.
As for now, the only thing I seem to be able to successfully flash via RUU are the two 4.06 firmwares from @mike1986. Unfortunately, it's just firmware and not a full RUU so I can't boot into anything but the bootloader. Any hints on where I can find a stock rom that it will let me install via fastboot since I don't have a custom recovery?

Your CID is still CWS__001.
Get the AT&T RUU from HTC and run it. Then start the bootloader unlock process all over.
Once you've got a working phone, then attempt to s-off using rumrunner with a live CD/USB of a Linux distribution.

I really appreciate all the help, but there either is no AT&T RUU that will run with the firmware on my phone (afaik you can't go backward when you're S-ON), or it's not where I'm able to find it on the internet. I've looked here and htc1guru.com.

That might be the case then...
I ran this RUU:

I used it go return to stock for a warranty exchange and had the 3.62.401.1 firmware at the time, but I was s-off.
Hopefully someone knows a way to get a ROM back on the phone so that you can get the bootloader unlocked.

To update my One (that is S-OFF), I relocked the bootloader and loaded that RUU which put it on 4.3, then let it do the OTAs that brought it first to 4.4.2/Sense 5.5, then the OTA to 4.4.2/Sense 6.0. Then I re-unlocked and rooted it. I run the stock T-Mobile ROM that is rooted and using the ElementalX 14.2 kernel.

[Q] How Update Rooted One

Hi everyone
I want to do a "Official" Update for my HTC One (M7) that i rooted a while ago...
I allready read this topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2748547 And i found that the first and most important think is to have a Stock recovery
Unfortenantly i Have a custom recovery (TWRP) and the bootloader is "Unlocked"
What's the most secure and efficient way to be able to update my phone Offcially ?
Thnk's for help
Flash a stock recovery... You'll probably find one in the thread you got your custom one from.
Then just relock bootloader with the command
fastboot oem lock
You can now update with no issues.

if you have unlocked your bootloader and rooted the phone, you'll probably have issue installing the update even if you restore the stock recovery, Like I said in the post you have linked, when you unlock bootloader, /data/preload get wiped. You need this folder and its content back in place to install ota updates. Also, if rooting or anything else you did, modified some /system files, the ota will not install. However, flash you stock recovery back and try the ota, if the ota fails with an image of a red triangle and an exclamation mark inside, then you'll need to restore some files (either /system files or /data/preload files) You have to flash the stock recovery version that match your current version. If you can post the output of fastboot getvar all (minus imei and serialno) we could help you find the recovery you need.
and btw, no need to relock bootloader like said above. Better to leave it unlocked so you'll not have to unlock it again and wipe /data/preload again

relocking bootloader was not required, better to re-unlock it now, or you'll have the same problem with the next ota.
try to reapply the update. when the phone boot in stock recovery and start to flash the ota, press and hold vol+ then power and release both. You'll see some command lines and you'll be able to know which file is causing the ota to abort.
look for something like: unexpected content or no such file or directory)

hmm, in that case I don't have any ideas.
some users say they had to relock bootloader, though i don't think that's necessary, as the US Dev Edition comes bootloader unlocked by default, and still receives OTAs just fine.
I guess you could try that.

The easy way is to use a RUU to get you phone back to Stock
then download and flash the update.
the more complicated way is to restore stock recovery and the missing files from unlocking the bootloader and then download the update.
Depending on your phones CID / MID some are able to just flash a Guru Reset and choose to install the stock recovery and say no to root and then take the OTA update.
As you already have TWRP why not just install the Stock unrooted 6.xx.xxx.x Rom ? >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-4-4-3-sense-6-6-09-401-5-100-stock-t2854300

okay, that will not work, a GPE recovery, you need one for your phone. the easiest would be to extract it from the OTA

Ok I notice you have a very new radio compared to you hboot version. This unlocking problem normally happens when an s-off device is set back to s-on while something is still customized in the firmware. Could be anything even as little as a custom boot splash. Normally happens after botched gpe conversion. That's why I asked about that
What reason did you go back to s-on. Is it possible you had custom firmware at the time?
I only know of one case where the bootloader was ever unlocked again and they had to use Sunshine app. Which unlocked the bootloader and returned s-off. Obviously this is a good option If the phone is booting.
Although normally the device has been on the latest firmware with no ruu available. Not the case for your device, you could try flashing the 3.62.401.1.zip firmware from here.
http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/401/ with below instructions.
Rename the 3.62.401.1.zip to firmware.zip and put it in your fastboot folder.
Reboot the phone to the bootloader and Connect fastbootusb. Now open your Fastboot command line and type
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Code:
fastboot oem lock
you can skip this if already locked
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
< --- case sensitive.
The phone will reboot to a black screen with a Silver HTC LOGO. This is RUU mode. Now we're going to flash the firmware.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The first flash will be short. It's just a preupdate preparing the hboot for the new firmware. So we need to do the same command again.
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
The second flash will take a little longer and this time it will flash the full firmware. The progress bar on the phone screen will not reach 100% this is normal as long as the command window has completed its output the flash is done.
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Make sure fastboot usb is connected and run the ruu.exe on your pc
http://www.htc1guru.com/2014/03/android-ruu-europe/ This will return you to complete stock 4.19.401.9. After which you should get a new unlock code from HTC dev and try unlock again.
Good luck :good:

First of all thanks...
P.S the bootloader is locked and I cant flash the RUU...
neither do I have a custom recovery and root...so i cant install a guru reset...
the phone is booting and working fine but no root...
if I get root by towelroot I could use flashify to flash recovery without unlocking the bootloader and then restore it to stock...but the problem is that tr is not working...tried all versions...it worked before...
I did it s-ON to return it to stock so I could sale it...I was using viperone with elemental X kernel...I foolishly cleared everything also the system and... didnt notice...after that I flashed the stock recovery and gave the command for s-ON and then locked the bootloader...but the phone didnt boot...I didint knew what happened so I sent it for repair in a local shop...I dont know what they did but when I got it back it was LOCKED not RELOCKED....I dont what RUU did they flash because whenever I insert a sim card it says network locked...it happens with every sim card and whatever code I insert it says succesfully unlocked from network and rebooting...but still remains network locked...I was trying to unlock bootloader to flash the correct RUU to get the phone back in order but to no avail...now I've checked every local shop but they're out of options....so XDA is my only hope now....

If the phone is s-on the bootloader must be LOCKED or RELOCKED to run an ruu or flash firmware
you can only flash Unlocked while s-off. So it should work. If it fails post the error :good:
I've edited my previous post to include instructions for flashing
