Confused on what drivers to install on win8.1 x64 - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Just installed win8.1 x64 and i want the latest drivers installed (without htc sync)
im reading here and there about fastboot/adb issues with win8.1, and whether or not ms fixed it.
does anyone have the latest win8.1 x64 htc drivers + adb+ fastboot drivers?
do i need anything else?
here are some threads ive read up on

You need to make sure your hboot is 1.55 or higher for Win 8.1 to work correctly

USPL and Vista..

Hello, i use vista and just flashed from olix to the original. And now is the new problem, when i try to install uspl from my vista laptop i get this error :

Are you Vista x64 or Vista x86? Either way check the information on step (0) of the guide in my signature. You need to update the driver for your HTC USB Sync.
Hello. Verry good guide im running vista 32 bit and try to install driver, but windows said the driver is good HTC Driver, ive install a vista driver from this forum a few monthes ago. It look like the usb driver is working because i use this vista laptop to flash roms.

Ahh, ok. Do you have antivirus running? It can also interfere with USPL. If so, try disabling it temporarily and try again...
No problem in Vista 32-bit (many times), if you use this guide : http://www.modaco.com/content/windows-mobile-news/252977/ruu-on-vista-it-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide/
It`s from Duttys guide.
you need to revert to the old drivers even if vista tells you that you have a good driver
I did everything that is possible and on Vista x64 I can't make it work! BTW The 64 bit Vista SP1 wants Digitally signed driver and the one provided is not!

You can just disable this "feature", google for it.

This is true. You can get around this by following step (0a) of the guide in my signature.

Run it from a command prompt window instead so you can see the error text before it disappears
if i run it from the command prompt i got exactely the same error like the threatauthor. then i tried some things and now it works! i don't know what i ve done
thanks a lot for the help
btw, very good guide!
i also got the error message "no response from device"
i have the old driver (from 2009) installed.
also vista, but 32bit
anybode can help?
I have actually followed the guidance on modaco earlier and have successfully installed cooked ROM on my HD using USPL, but after upgrading to 1.56 now when I try to follow the guide and install the driver an error msg comes up saying "Windows has encountered a problem" and the driver does not get installed. I have no idea why it is not working as I know that I have done everything right, and btw I have 32 bit vista. Can anybody help? For the time being using HSPL, but would like to have stock SPL instead.
Try to change the USP port where you phone is connected. Just connect the cable to other port. This helped me once.
try this:
in your command prompt window (which you have set to run as administrator), navigate to where the exe is.
then type blac_uspl.exe (i think thats what its called) BUT DONT HIT ENTER
then, put the usb cable into your touch hd. as soon as it says USB in bootloader mode, hit enter and it ought to work then, provided you do it quick enough.
this worked for me when i had the same issue.
weird.
i tried to flash it about 15 times. 10 times this erroer message. then i was able to install uspl! wow.. but the flash-process stopped at 0%.
so i tried again and again and then it ahppened. i flashed that stupid rom
i didnt chance anything. i just did the same as before. so i dondst know what the exact problem was.
but ok. wating for the next rom which i wanna flash
thanks for your help!

[USPL] Windows 7 RC

I am running the new 64-bit, Release Candidate of Windows 7. Despite booting to allow unsigned drivers (F8 on boot-time), Windows 7 still rejects the USPL driver. I did browse to the USPL GUI driver for 64 bit. Worked fine on previous Windows 7 beta.
Anyone else have trouble?
did you try running in compatible modus??
On the file properties.....
Did you try downgrading your drivers?
I had no problem with HSPL, but with USPL I had to downgrade drivers, which casued all sorts of problems when trying to do normal operations with WMDC.

Have you tried the new Windows 7's XP Mode feature ...?
... review here ... and ... download here ...
Works like charm on my PC, running x64 W7, build 7068.
Guide by Digital Outcast in first page
PLs read the Dummies guide written by the great "Digital Outcast" and you shall know what your problem is and how to solve it, it really helped me i am also using win7 x64 release candidate 7100 build. pls read the wiki for more info. have a nice time flashing
i did it just how i'd being doing it in vista and it worked just fine. My only problem was my internet security suite being overzealous.
Since it's actually a command line application, I don't think the compatibility feature is available...will try when get home from work. If this is expereinced by othjers, weill need new way to run USPL. I did notice there were updated drivers for our phones, in RC1, but you still can't flash using those new drivers from Microsoft

You should try reading my guide as well as my USPL GUI application. They are both linked in my signature. I am running Windows 7 RC 1 (build 7100) on both 32 and 64-bit. I have a dual-boot configuration and the drivers, USPL via command prompt, and USPL via my GUI all work fine for me on both installations. Are you sure you did the process right?
Did anyone try Windows 7's XP mode?

I have win7 x64 and i just use USPL normally, but first i log onto windows without the digital sign driver and then updating the Mobile drivers to the ones found on this forum and it works like a charm... No need to run under XP mode

USB bootloader mode not being recognised by windows vista

Hi Folks,
I have read the guide regarding upgrading the USB drivers. I downloaded them and installed them. When blackstone is in normal working mode the windows mobile device centre sees it. (i.e. its sync'd)
when I place the HTC Touch HD into bootloader mode (i.e. from serial to USB) the windows machine does not see it hence I can't flash.
I am running the stock rom 1.14
Any help would be great
Vista x86 or x64?
I couldn't get the x64 drivers to work, but with vista x86 the drivers worked.
follow these steps
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3932827&postcount=3
I totally forgot to read the troubleshooting guide.
Have read it now, Bootloader now shows as the SPL v 1.07.OliNex. Now running the HSPLWrapper_blackstone_156OilNex.exe along with EnergyROM HD Standard version. Lets see how it goes.
I'm on vista 32bit
Upgrade to sp2 if you have not done it yet.
Solves a lot of compatibility issues also.
Iam also using v32 bit but, with out any additional drivers.
If you were following guide for updating usb drivers you should have posted your query within that thread. No need for another.

Windows 8.1 Fastboot drivers not working now..

I have been using windows 8.1 for a few weeks now and have had no problems with using fastboot. ADB still works but when my HTC One is in fastboot mode windows does not recognize the driver at all. It has just happened randomly and Im not sure what I should try to get it working again as I need too because Im and selling the phone and need to flash the stock RUU.
Help would be much appreciated
Thanks

Did you happen to downgrade the HBOOT? I have 8.1 as well, and I've noticed that my One will only communicate on HBOOT 1.55/1.56, anything lower will not connect (i.e. 1.44), don't know why, I'm guessing a driver issue with the older HBOOTS. Luckily, I have dual booted Linux, so I was able to reflash my HBOOT back to 1.56, and it works with 8.1 again.

u cannot flash RUU on win8.1
the phone needs to be on HBOOT 1.44, which for some reason, win8.1 is unable to recognize. ur solutions are
1) Use Win7 on another machine
2) Through Ubuntu Linux live CD. u don't need 2 install Ubuntu. Just through the live CD u can get the job done.
if ur gng 2 use Ubuntu, check out this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1119507
if ur not very familiar with Linux desktop operating systems, Win7 can easily do the job. Ensure that u install HTC Sync Manager on ur Win 7 PC, before u start the RUU flash. U will be stuck on Waiting for device...... if u don't install Sync Manager

Those are some really outdated instructions, IMHO
you just need use:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
to install adb&fastboot on Ubuntu.
