[Q] Get completely back to stock for repair

Hi,
i need to get back to stock after i did
- S-OFF via revone (without unlocking via htcdev)
- Flash TWRP recovery
- Did a NANDROID of the stock rom
- Install ViperOne ROM
Originalbuild:
1.29.401.16 CL177101 release-keys
I think there are 2 options:
1) Run a RUU
2) Restore stock rom via RWRP and flash original recovery, then S-ON via revone
Is this right? What shall i do best?
And where do i get the stock recovery for 2)
And the 1.29 RUU WWE Europe is not available, can i just run the way older one and then OTA to 1.29?
Thank you very much!
Regards
Daniel

Backup data you want to keep
Download the 1.28.401.7 RUU
Flash it
S-ON
Send to HTC

You mean this one
"RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13. 3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed.exe"
?
Is it possible to flash an older RUU when a newer version is installed at the moment?
S-ON is done with the RUU? Or do i need to do this seperately?
Then just OTA to get 1.29 (which they delivered)?

Yep, that one. With S-OFF you can flash an older RUU as it doesn't check the current mainver on the device. Once you have flashed the RUU and confirmed it's working you can then set the CID back to HTC__001 (if you changed it to Super CID) and then back to S-ON and you're good to go!

Tampered should not appear when i did not unlock via htcdev i thought?
Where do i find the traces of revone?

Hi,
here is my report of getting back to stock:
1) Flashed latest available RUU
2) Updated via OTA but did not get the absolute latest software (which was on the device before)
3) pushed revone to the device and locked it again
4) wrote secureflag 3 for s-on
5) deleted revone from /data/local/tmp (!!!)
6) flashed the latest OTA via fastboot manually (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42924796)
Done
Worked like a charm
Thanks guys! Thanks revone Team!

Problems to install RUU

Hi,
I would like to install the RUU on my HTC One. I had S-ON, unlocked bootloader via HTC Dev, and TWRP recovery installed. Now, I have installed the Stock Recovery, relocked the bootloader, and tried to install the 1.28 European ruu. My cid is HTC__001 Everithing runs fine, until I get an error number 140. ¿Any ideas? Thanks

Since you are S-ON, you cannot install an RUU that is older than your current firmware, you can only stay on the same firmware or upgrade but you cannot downgrade to an older firmware, and till now there are still no RUU's for android 4.2 for the HTC One!

Cannot update to 4.3 with sense 5.5?

I followed the guide below to change my CID to HTC_13 to get the 4.2.2 update faster. Everything was fine.
Today my phone detected the 4.3 update with sense 5.5 and after I download it and I click install, the phone reboots and it installs for a while before a Red Exclamation in a red triangle appears.
After a while it reboots and Im asked to download the update again. Can You tell me why this is so?
I'm on S-OFF and Unlocked bootloader.

Bootloader do NOT have to be locked to update an OTA

Then can you tell my why it fails to update?

I've no idea. So long as you're 100% stock, have the right CID and MID you should have no issues. It worked fine for me, but then again I'm S-OFF so whether that has anything to do with it I don't know as I downloaded the OTA and flashed it manually in the stock recovery

Me to.. just back 100% stock RUU 1.26.xxx.x and I didn't receive any ota update

bootloader doesnt have to be locked to received and install the update
can you verify what exactly was the first update you received?
after returning to stock yesterday, i received two updates and downloaded both
first update was some firmware fix and the second was the 4.3 update
both run flawlessly and now i am on stock 4.3 sense 5.5
s-off, unlocked bootloader

Does flashing a RUU also install the correct recovery? I have my HTC One S-off, unlocked and changed the CID to 11111111, flashed the RUU and now when I get the OTA it just comes up with the error that my version of Android is modified so it can not be updated.
What have I done wrong?

ATT M7 unlocked via htcdev and rooted: BAD FLASH

Hey guys. So I flashed Android 4.4.3 (KitKat) - latest official HTC One 6.09.401.12 (WWE) firmware (84.x series) to my Att HTC M7. I unlocked bootloader and rooted prior to that. Installed TWRP recovery. I didn't back up my original OS nor do a nandroid back up.
When I first flash it was 1/2 ok. I was able to get to the setup wizard on the rom. Then it reboot to recovery. All I can get is bootloader and recovery.
in order for adb sideload or just adb to work the steps I have to take are peculiar. I stumbled on this today. I have to connect my usb cable when the M7 is off. I boot into the bootloader via *power button and *volume down. Then I select fastboot, then I go back and select recovery. When it boots to recovery then I touch advanced and my device shows up. Also my OTG connection works fine.
So I downloaded the stock version odexed. I get errors on install. Actually I get errors trying to install any rom now. I've tried to unzip and rezip using winrar. Any clues as what I should try now? I wanted to post a pic of my bootloder info and the error message but alas I dont have 10 post.

You won't receive ota update on an at&t phone if you are not on the at&t network.
What is your custom recovery version?
I would achieve s-off using Sunshine so you can fully convert your phone to another version which doesn't require a specific carrier to receive update like the WWE version (x.xx.401.x) or the Developer version (x.xx.1540.x)

So I achieved s off using Sunshine. Changed cid and mid to corresponding t-mobile spec. Flashed the RUU for t-mobile from the HTC website download. Now when I flash the RUU I suppose it takes out my recovery and flashed a stock recovery?
I had TWRP but now I have some weird recovery. Last time I went into it and I rebooted out it factory reset my HTC. Pain in the ass more than anything.
I was thinking I could flash a ROM and see if it performs as or better than the RUU. The only benefit of using the stock tmobile is OTA updates right?
Oh and since I don’t have twrp anymore should can I reflash that? I would like to make a backup of my OS before I start screwing around.

Yes, a ruu will re-write all stock software and firmware to the phone (system, recovery, kernel, radio, bootloader, drivers, and so on)

You can't do much using stock recovery except a factory reset. Stock recovery is needed for ota updates but if you are already on last version you don't reallt need it anymore and you can reflash twrp over it.

If you already flashed the latest t-mobile ruu (lollipop), you will not receive any more ota updates. Lollipop 5.0.2 Sense 6 should be the last version for the M7. At least flashing the ruu was not a waste of time since it upgraded your firmware; newer custom roms requires the latest firmware to work properly.

Yep I would relfash twrp and make a backup before trying other toms. You can always revert back to stock using the same ruu if you don't have a backup.

Need help to update Htc One M7

Hi
I have Htc One M7 international phone.
My phone was on s/w verrion no : 4.19.401.9 ( Android version 4.4.2)
Boot loader : unlcoked
phone : rooted.
Recovery : TWRP.
But I want to update my phone to official OTA 4.19.401.11.
So I Relocked bootloader, unroot my phone, install stock recovery.
now my bootloader screen shows:
***TEMPERED****
***RELOCKED****
hboot version 1.56
And it's S-ON.
I downloaded OTA file on phone itself, but it's not updating.
Try RUU file, which is not opening in PC.
Then I downloaded 4.19.401.11 OTA file to my PC.
When I tried to update it via adb sideload method from recovery( adb sideload), stock recovery didn't show apply update from adb option.
So please suggest what should I do to update my phone?

hi any expert on HTC phones please guide.
IS IT possible to update directly to Lollipop from kitkat 4.4.2 ???
if so how???

Update.
I have downloaded this RUU.
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.
But whenever I try to run it( as administrator), it automatically closes after EULA page.
What should I do to run this RUU??

AT last I am able to update my HTC ONE M7 international to version no: 4.19.401.11.

And today I am able to update to 5.11.401.10 also.
Request to mods, please close the thread as my problem is solved.
