[Q] Flashing OTA help? - 4.3 -> 4.4 [SOLVED]

I've seen similair threads but nothing posted seems to work for me, and i've been trying to get to stock 4.4 for what seems like ages.
I'll attach a getvar below, but essentially i'm on stock 4.3, although rooted and with TWRP recovery. Despite that, I received the OTA that would update my phone to 4.4.2. I know my phone has the right CID, MID, and firmware for the update, i double checked, and the fact i received it anyways. I've tried installing the OTA on various "Stock" recoveries, i've found around the forum for the htc one, but all have failed and its ended with a red triangle over the phone, and then it gets stuck booting; forcing me to flash a custom recovery, push a nandroid, restore, and start all over again.
Simply, i have an OTA, the right firmware, CID, MID etc, but can someone tell me or point me towards a recovery it will work with, or a work around (I've seen things about extracting the firmware.zip from the main one etc etc). Any reply will be helpful, all i want is for it to install.

Is the stock recovery you've been using from a 3.62.206.x ruu?
It needs to be the same version as your current OS.

Had same issue. Apply it manually from sdcard.

I don't think it was actually, so do I need to find an o2 RUU, and pull the recovery img from that?

Alright thanks for the heads up, do i need to do anything else first? unroot, lock bootloader? or is it fine to run as i am, custom recovery, unlocked bootloader?

No. Apply it through stock recovery.

Use the recovery.img from your downloaded OTA zip file and try again, that way work for me but i have to redownload the OTA file thou...
I was updated from 2.24.*.* to 3.63.*.* and 4.20.*.* .I use the stock recoveries around the internet I've fond and fail. Than I extract the recovery.img from my 4.3 OTA zip, flash it on 4.2 OS and than just tap Setting>About>SoftwareUpdate. it went well. I countinuously updated that I can't even copy the 4.4 OTA zip file

use at least twrp 2.6.3.3. if you can't remember the name of the rom you are flashing then you don't know what you are doing and I can't help you.
at least with s-off you can restore your phone with any ruu.

it isnt roms its ruu files

Yeah, still not sure we're communicating here.
If it didn't come from HTC, it's not a RUU.
Have a look at http://androidruu.com/?developer=M7
*Those* are RUU's.
You need to use the right one for your phone. (If your cidnum is unusual, such as HTC_Y13, there may not *be* an official RUU for your phone. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2287505)
RUU's nuke all the data on your phone and fix all the partitions (recovery, HBOOT, radio, everything) on your phone, leaving it completely stock.
They need a Windows PC with HTC drivers to run.
What did *you* think RUU means?

i think you should slow down and start reading a bit... maybe a lot.
you have (supposedly):
(bootloader) product: m7_ul
(bootloader) modelid: PN0710000
(bootloader) cidnum: HTC__Y13
not trying to sound condescending, or anything, but if you think the ones you mentioned above are RUUs, then you should seriously do some more research.
some of those don't even look like M7 ROMs, and if you can find a real signed RUU which is deodexed... then WOW.

you can find m7 ruu on www.htc1guru.com or androidruu.com
you are s-off which mean you can flash both signed or decrypted ruu.
ruu.exe are flashed from windows OS. You plug your phone with usb cable and you launch the ruu.exe
ruu.zip can be flashed from any OS when your phone is in RUU mode (fastboot oem rebootRUU) using windows command prompt, linux terminal or mac terminal.
To flash a ruu it must be intended for your phone CID and MID
With S-ON (not your case) you also need a ruu that is signed and same or higher version of your phone. + bootloader must be locked/relocked
With S-OFF (your case) you can flash any ruu that match your CID/MID even if its a downgrade and bootloader can be locked/unlocked/relocked
Now the ruu you should use is this one: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_ul_k44_sense55_mr_htc_europe_4-19-401-9_r_radio_4a-23-3263-28_10-38r-1157-04l_release_353069_signed_2-1-exe/
This is the latest version for your phone and it match your MID (PN0710000) and your CID (HTC__Y13)
stays s-off and bootloader unlocked unless you send your phone for warranty repair.

[Q] Looking for guidance on restoring my phone; stuck in boot loop

I used O.M.J's RUU but i am still getting ERROR 155 The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. I do notice that when I'm at the screen that asks me to update my image my current image info is empty.

Did you relock the bootloader? Just go through the steps in the post again, or look in the comments for it. I don't own an HTC one but just trying to help

That RUU is too old it won't work use THIS

Error 115 is you didn't lock your bootloader. As seen her in post 15-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250904&page=2
Tell me if anything works!

I relocked the bootloader. I just saw a post for Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_4.06.651.4_RUU.zip but the OP says its for hboot 1.56 and it looks like mine is 1.57 so im a little nervous about trying it.

Reflash a rom or a ruu. Something on /system got corrupt, a factory reset won't fix anything on /system.
What was the problem with root exactly?

Are you sure your version-main is really 7.25.771.551?
You could flash the 7.19.771.21 RUU but since your phone is S-ON you'll have to change your version-main.
file at post #2 of this thread, instruction at post #1. version-main downgrade explained at the end of post #2 (how to downgrade with s-on)
Your other option is to flash any custom rom you'd like from twrp. Most roms are pre-rooted btw. ARHD is good one to start with, stable, looks like a stock rom but with many improvements. There are also some good Sense 7 roms like InsertCoin or NewSenSeven.

Thank you for info, where would i find the stock rom to match my version main, after all, I just wanted to try and "root" the phone in the first place.
If I got it back to original state then maybe i could start over again with proper guidance.
Sorry if I sound like a proper novice............. but i am...........thanks once again.

There is no rom that match your version-main, thats why I suggested that you either change your version-main using the downgrade guide so you can flash the 7.19.771.21 RUU (you'll be able to update back to your current version after) or to flash any custom rom you'd like.

Sorry I understand now, I'll have a shot at downgrading and see how it goes. Thanks for your time and advice.

Post your fastboot getvar all output, but erase your IMEI and serial number from it. That way we will be able to point you in the right direction

What a coincidence!
I'm about to "unroot" my old HTC M7 for my kid so he can play Pokemon Go on it.
It has TWRP 3.0.2-0 on it, and the fastboot getvar of it looks like this:

Hmmm rethinking this now.
Not sure if this "old" device will be able to play Pokémon Go when flashed to the original "old" ROM!
it needs Android 4.4+

This old device received officiall Android Lollipop years ago, so you'll be fine with pokemon go. I'm gonna see if I have my old h-boot stored for you when I come home from work. I think you can go directly to the last one because your phone is s-off, but I'm not sure about that because your h-boot is very old. If you can hold on for about 12 hours, I'll point you to the right direction then

Should update his firmware to 7.19.401.2 using the full firmware zip and than he can flash the 7.19.401.51 RUU.

Downgrade your version-main # to 7.18.708.2 using the guide at the end of this post (how to downgrade with s-on). Once done flash the 7.18.708.21 RUU using instruction of this post. Finally you'll have to take 2 ota update so you're back on 7.18.708.51 (if you need to unlock/root again make sure to install update before)

fastboot oem rebootRUU will make your phoned reboot in ruu mode (that black screen with silver htc logo). Once in ruu mode, it's time to flash the ruu using "fastboot flashing zip ruu.zip". During the flashings process you should get an error saying "flush image again immediately", the phone will reboot itself in ruu mode again and the flashing will continue,it's all normal.

If the ruu flashed fine, it's not rooted anymore. Root files are stored on the /system partition which is wiped and flashed back to stock with the ruu.

I'm about to flash the phone.
Can this all be done with TWRP, or do I need to go the ADB way?

Flashing firmware or RUU is done using fastboot commands in RUU mode, not with twrp, neither with adb.

Now flashing the ruu using htc_fastboot.exe
Look at the stickies in the general section to find the lollipop ruu collection thread. Instructions how to flash are provided at post #1.
