Hello everyone,
This is my fisrt time writing in this forum, hope you guys can share some knowledge with me. Here is my issue:
I bought a HTC One to a guy a few weeks ago with barely no use. The thing is that I didn´t know at that time that the device was rooted with the MaximusHD. When I realized about it I reset my phone to factory settings and the new 4.3 3.22.1540.1 got installed. Thought it was ok but it is still doing some weird things so I decided to unroot the device to stock, also for warranty porpuses.
The problem comes when I try to download the RUU for my device due to I cannot find it. Should I do it through other method? Do I have to S-off to downgrade and install the RUU 1.29?
My phone is the following:
M7_UL PVT Ship S-On RH
Baseband 4A.17.3250.14
Hboot 1.54.0000
OpenDSP v31.120.274.0617
It is the european unlocked/international version bought in Spain.
I would really appreciate if someone could give a hand on this and guide me in through this process. I was an iPhone guy and now I'm freaking lost.
Thanks so much!

Your bootloader should already be unlocked, so simply get S-OFF using Rumrunner, then follow this guide.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried to s-off my htc but it hasnt worked. So I downloaded the recovery stock version and after installing it, the device told me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i wanted to install supersu, i declined and then made a recovery. Phone looks like unrooted, although within the bootloader it still shows "tampered" and "Unlocked". The recovery mode that the phone had installed has disappeared so I dont know what to do now, should I continue to s-off the device and then put it down to hboot 1.44 and follow the unroot guide???
I would like to make sure my device is unrooted in order to gain warranty privilages just in case i need to send out my phone to htc...
Thanks!

You don't really have a choice, unless you have the RUU for your phone. Can you post the results of "fastboot getvar all" so we can try to figure out what to do.

Just a quick note here, "version-main: <blank>" I never like that.
BTW, when posting "fastboot getvar all" it's preferably to remove IMEI and s/n; we don't need to see that.
You should probably get s-off as @attanasi0 suggested and then run a "HTC__304" downgrade RUU. (You can only downgrade if you're S-Off)
Just my two cents

When you boot to bootloader does it also show nothing in OS (7th line down or so)? Can you remember the last OTA you took?

Right, it shows just OS- but nothing else...when i bought it the guy had installed the MaximusHD 13 and I updated through OTA to the MaximusHD 20 but wasnt going smooth so I reset it to factory settings and It installed the JB 4.3 (3.22.1540.1).
Today after trying to s-off without success, I downloaded the recovery stock version for the rom I had and flashed it and the recovery mode that I had before disappeared and the baseband upgraded to 4A.20...instead of the 4A.17 that I had before that. Did the guy who sold me the htc messed it up? is there anything I can do to set my device to factory settings?
Thanks for the help guys! I appreciate it!

Well from the information available, you have
- hboot 1.54
- m7_ul
- PN0710000
- CID HTC__304
this would lead me to assume you have a 2.24.401.x based phone.
I would try to get one of the following Guru Reset ROM:
2.24.401.8 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/
2.24.401.1 : http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
flash one of them in recovery, then follow the rumrunner steps to try to achieve S-Off.
If that is successful, then you can downgrade back to stock, using this RUU (exe): http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
check your "fastboot getvar all" after that.
Once you've done all that you can use revone (or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2477792) to remove "TAMPERED"
and also revone (or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2475914) to get you're phone "LOCKED" if you so wish
Keep S-Off !!

Thanks for the help. I have downloaded the Rom you gave me the link for but I dunno how to flash it due to I lost access to the teamwin recovery mode and when I click recovery onto the bootloader it goes to a black screen with a caution simbol in red and I have to reboot it.
I have tried with the goomanager to flash that rom but it doesnt let me. Any advice in this regard? I can tell goomanager to find an open recovery script (openrecovery-twrp-2.6.1.0-m7.img), should i do this? Or Im gonna end up with a bricked phone?
Thanks!

"black screen with a caution simbol in red" that's stock recovery, you need to flash back a custom recovery. download (if you dont have one) from the xda threads, then enter bootloader (shut off phone, hold POWER + VOLDOWN) enter FASTBOOT, connect to PC and it should change to FASTBOOT USB
then
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter RECOVERY
then "install ZIP" in Aroma, deselect "stock recovery" so you don't need to flash it again.

No problem, TWRP you mentioned should work just fine. It's the same as installing a custom ROM. I havent used TWRP but it should say something like "install zip", then find the zip and flash away.
Hopefully, that will give you a chance to successfully run rumrunner; remember to read and follow the instructions to the letter!
Good luck and keep us posted (fingers crossed)

Well I installed the custom recovery, then flashed the stock rom 2.24.401.8 as you told me. Once I did that I ran rumrunner successfully gainning S-off.
Now I have to run the RUU but the one you suggested me is the "RUU M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 Radio 4A.13.3231.27 10.31.1131.05 Release 310878" but my radio is 4A.17.3250.14_10.39.1150.04L. Should I try to install it anyways? I've taken a look at the rest of RUUs and none fits my features...
btw every time I flash the stock version at the end it tells me that my phone doesnt appear to be rooted and if i want to install supersu, i always say no and after that my recovery always goes to stock, i guess it is normal, isnt it?

Go ahead and flash it, it will downgrade everything (now possible thanks to S-Off), and you will then receive the latest OTA package(s) to get to the most current version including radio.

Well many many thanks for your help, I couldnt have done it without it and I have learnt so much through the process Soon I'll be ready to re-root the phone again and try some custom roms hehe
Peace and greetings from Spain!

Hey! I have tried to lock it but after typing adb shell I get this "[email protected]:\ $" instead of the # that you are getting. I've tried to type "su" after that but it says that the command cannot be found. Also, when I type the code "echo -ne..." it says that I have permission denied so dunno what to do now...
Im asking in the lock/unlock threat but they just told me that its because im not rooted and that i have to install a recovery and install superuser in order to be able to introduce the code, dont really understand why I have to root it afer unrooted it :S

You should have LOCKED it before running the RUU, because that's what made you loose root.
So before proceeding, can you give me an update of your status:
bootloader: locked/relocked/unlocked?
tampered?
ROM?
"fastboot getvar all" (remove IMEI and s/n)
I've searched the Forum but I'm so over-my-head that I'm not really finding my exact issue and I'm kinda trying things willie nillie which I know is going to leave me with a bricked phone.
I tried following the rooting guide at http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/ and booted into my Sprint Rom successfully with the SU installed. Then I added the Android Revolution rom and tried to flash it. Since that point I've had boot loop issues.
Android Revolution will boot loop to the bootloader and not even attempt to get into the OS. When I tried installing Viper Rom, I could get to the unlock screen, but when I'd unlock, the screen would display a white page with "htc" on it, then eventually reboot. I then tried to flash the stock Sprint Rom. It will load to the lock screen, but not unlock, and will reboot eventually. Finally, I tried following the instructions here from a similar situation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2411137. When I go through the first tutorial the [SOLVED] post refers to, I get the error that warning: seek lseek64 failed when I try the second step. I also can't get RUU to work because when I turn my phone off and plug it in, it automatically turns on to the bootloader.
Presently the bootloader reads:
tampered
relocked
security warning
m7_wls pvt ship s-on rh
hboot 1.55.0000
opendsp-v31.120.274.0517
os-1.29.651.10(weird character)
eMMC-boot 2048MB

Fastboot and ADB are working for me.
Please, any advice would be appreciated

It looks to me like your not unlocked anymore. Your Bootloader should say Unlocked, not Relocked. I would go through that process again before you do anything else.
EDIT: I found this, and it is great. Very user friendly, and will also help you achieve S-Off. Just follow the steps.

did the following:
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
Chose "Yes" to unlock bootloader
Allowed phone to reboot
--Attempts to boot into the rom, but is non-responsive
--Will reboot periodically if left alone
Now in hboot it says *** unlocked ***, does not have the security warning, but still, I can't seem to get the rom to ever boot properly. Also I still can't RUU because the phone won't shut down (and because I'm unlocked again).
Thank you for your help - any other ideas?

If it were me I would go to Wipe in Recovery, and wipe everything EXCEPT internal storage, wipe system most of all. Then try to flash the ROM. Some times dirty flashing can cause lots of issues.

Ok, so after some pretty extensive research here is what I have found. First you are on a newer HBOOT version than I am (not sure how this happened was pretty sure I updated, but who knows), so the only way for you to achieve S-Off is using rumrunner. You can find that info at the link below. Do that first, then after that you should be able to complete the rest of the steps in the [SOLVED] forum you found earlier. Fingers crossed this works for you.

Maybe I'm misreading it, but rumrunner requires you to be able to boot into a rom.
Went through the steps in the guide posted as a solution to your second link (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2503646) and there's no change in behavior, though my information at the top of hboot now reads as follows:

PM me your google username, and I will chat with you on Hangouts. Maybe we can figure it out that way.
I was speaking with a friend and he thinks that this may have started because I flashed a GSM rom accidentally instead of a Sprint-designed-rom. Also he said my hboot might be the wrong version to go through the fix that MrFixIt and others have posted where you use fastboot to go through the oem recovery to sideload a rom.
Any ideas would be welcome at this point.

BigDaddy's guide (above) solved my issue. I had run the steps before but I tried to sideload the rom at the end and that would fail.
I'm now running Slim Bean rom w/ GPS and radios working and I'm so happy. THANK YOU BIG DADDY AND THIS GUY FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!
Hello,
I received from phone info that 4.4.2 update is ready for download, I let it download and when it asked me to update I said yes. After update, phone rebooted and I got picture with red triangle and exclamation mark.
What to do? I cannot wait for this to be fixed, nor I have time to wait for my operator to fix my phone, since this will last at least 2 weeks.
It can go to stock bootloader without problem!
How to flash original img to my phone, and let it on 4.1.x until they fix this?
Please guys help me with this...
If it is of any help, I had EU version of phone on Serbian Telenor network.
Cheers...

It was rooted, but I did returned it to stock, and it did get like 2-3 big updates till now without problem (one was 4.3.x as far I remember). It has S-On.
Any hope for me?
Cheers...
Hum, probably a bad flash and the solution it to flash it again, but i guess you can't since it was an OTA.
If you have a backup, you can try to hard reset it from the Bootloader and see if it works.
You could also unlock the bootloader, and flash a stock rom.
You have to google it, i'm sure some other had the same problem.
...so I can unlock my phone even with not entering the OS alone? Will try it tomorrow, cannot do it tonight too tired.

...I just noticed that I cannot install Stock RUU on my phone until I get hboot @ 1.44.

So how to do this, can anyone help me?

When it happened to me, I just held down the power button for a half a minute and rebooted to Android again and downloaded the OTA again(first time it asks you to install an update, you cancel it, because it's the data that's still downloaded from before and it's corrupted, then you download it again). No unlocking, no RUU flashing.
You just probably downloaded a corrupted OTA data, that's why you got the red triangle.

Unlock the bootloader. Then flash a custom recovery, and then a custom ROM

Problem is that I cannot enter OS at all... only Bootloader (Fastboot etc.), but when phone tries to boot it passes first screen and then stops at loading OS, that's where red triangle is.
Didn't find way to redownload it from bootloader, or am I missing something?

No,if you can't access Android OS, then you can either try to factory reset trough recovery. Maybe that helps.
If not,and if a service center is not an option,then you have to unlock your bootloader,flash the latest TWRP recovery(recommended,you can flash CWM instead) and then flash custom ROM.
How to unlock bootloader,check out this link,it's just above your topic...

Good tutorial,I'm glad you found it and managed everything yourself:good:.
It's been a while since I S-offed,but I think Rumrunner will be the best if not the only choice for doing it. But check which firmware numbers are supported and which not,don't upgrade your phone too much:laugh:.

You are doing too much at a time:laugh:. Go slowly:laugh:.
What's your firmware number? Install a ROM that goes with your firmware number. For instance don't install Sense ROM if you have GE firmware installed.
When you get this right, S-off your phone and everything will be easier from there. And like I said, don't upgrade your phone to a too high version because not all versions of firmware are supported(I think so, I'm not sure).

Hehehe, moramo pričati tako, da nas svi razume:good:.
In English:laugh:. You have a 4.3 Sense firmware. You have to find a stock ROM of 4.3 Android that matches this firmware number.
Than go to Rumrunner theme and read instructions about how to S-off you phone. When you're done with S-off, you remove the tampered flag and lock you bootloader.
But first, install stock ROM and S-off with Rumrunner. Then we'll continue:good:.

Hey there
I am trying to flash Android Revolution 51.0 (found at the top of the list here http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.co.uk/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html) but am experienceing a problem.
When I start to flash (via CWM) it the freezes on a screen that says "press next to continue the installation". The button just doesn't press and I have to hard reboot. When the phone boots up it's just back to 4.2.2
Any ideas on where I'm going wrong?
Thanks

Nope, S-On. I cleared the cache by a command prompt in windows and managed to get into recovery and load a nandroid in CWM. So I'm back to where I started before trying to flash Revolution.
I just want to update to the lastest version of Android available for my model. I'd love to unroot and return to stock but so far I have not been able to follow the guides I have found as they require S-OFF.

btw there is no RUU for your version. So if you want to go back to stock you'll need to do it from a Nandroid backup. Rumrunner shouldn't be hard to use if you follow the guide step by step. However if you feel you can't do it atm, just don't mess with your phone and take the time to read all you will need to know before.

When you say to do it from a Nandroid back up, where would I get this from? A previous one on my phone? Sorry for the stupid questions!

you don't have to use it to s-off, it sonly a backup in case you must go back to stock. S-off is required if you want to flash arhd 51 or if you want to complete go back to stock (remove bootloader tempered flag and set to LOCKED instead of RELOCKED)

Man, i don't know why this guys made you s-off and everything.
You don't need S-off to install ARHD. The only thing you was doing wrong was using CWM. To install 4.2.2 android rom you need TWRP 2.6.3.3 or higher.
I just got my HTC One less than a week ago and today it wanted to update to android software 4.3 I believe. I honestly dont know anymore cause I cant check. I downloaded the update and clicked install. It restarted and now has been stuck at the white HTC logo screen without quietly brilliant. It has been like that for almost 3 hours and actually died completely I plugged it up and let it charge and turned it back on and still stuck on this screen I even tried to factory reset with the power button volume down boot thing. Sorry im not smart with this stuff. When I did factory reset it went to a black screen with a green load logo then went back to this screen. Just made an account to post this someone please help. Thanks.

was afraid of that ..your going to need the kitkat RUU
I'll look for it
your other option is to unlock the bootloader @ htcdev.com
flash custom recovery
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7wls
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.1-m7wls.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
and flash a Rom
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_sprint_3-04-651-2-zip/
To get the file to your phone
TWRP / Advanced / Sideload - swipe to sideload
From PC adb / fastboot folder
you use
adb sideload name-of-rom.zip
make sure the rom is in the same folder as adb / fastboot

So before I do this is it smarter to just take the phone to a Sprint store or best buy where I got it and make them handle it before I unlock the bootlader?

So I went to best buy and got the new phone today. Its currently on android 4.1.2 Can you help me update it to the latest without me bricking it again?
Don't install any mods this time and update via OTA as normal
Make sure your boot loader status is locked and s on
I assume you don't want s-off?
