what you posted is the OTA (18mb only) not RUU, besides stock Hboot comes with the stock RUU

Handman, I used the guide you posted on my thread in the T-mo forum to supercid to 11111111, flash the factory hboot from that page, then change the cid back to T-mo. In my case it was T-MOB010. Worked like a charm.

[Q] GPe 4.4 ROM reboots

Seems that every single GPe KitKat ROM that I install gives me random reboots at the setup screen, my firmware is of the 4.3 (sense 5) and I am s-on
Please give me advice on what to do.
Thanks in advance.

Reports have it that s-on can flash. Did you update to the latest recovery?

Yeah, that is TWRP 2.6.3.3
Hmm.. I'll hunt through the official ROM threads and see what they have to say..

Ya there is something going on. Wondering if it just a bunch of bad downloads or something more.

Yeah... I've pretty much tried everything, Oh well, I guess I'll just have to wait

I honestly thought I did something wrong while flashing the 4.4 ROMS- (been flashing since G1 days.. a little surprised by the rebooting)...

Hi Im having the same issue, my phone has an unlocked bootloader. I tried to install 2 different kind of 4.4 GPe roms and both times its restarting at the setup screen, where it ask for the language to use. Is S-Off different from unlocked bootloader and did the s-off with rumrunner fixed the issue? Thanks

I have s-off and have been but I couldn't install any of the 4.4 Roms and it caused crazy bootloop where recovery wasn't even an option thru fastboot or anything. Had to ruu out. Miserable day yesterday with a g2x lol. Think I might try to run the ruu for GE 4.4 tonight if I find an easy how to so I can play with 4.4 too.
I'm thinking it has to do with the software date too since I was s-off and got a fail also. I was on the original 1.xx T-Mobile software.

Hey! Yes, unlocked bootloader and s-off are different, here's a link to the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2487888
First, if you can sideload a ROM, do that and enable USB debugging on it before you run the tool.
Then, all you have to do is click the download link, download the 0.5.0 zip, extract it, then run the .exc file with admin permissions on your windows 7 computer. Be patient, it WILL take a while.

Recovery bootlooped? Seems like a recovery issue... I use TWRP 2.6.3.3
Firmware issue? I don't know, but I'm running the latest 4.3 AT&T official firmware, and the tool worked for me, then everything went fine.
And wow, the g2x... A taste of old Android, almost literally.

I couldn't get to a recovery, fastboot flashed 3 different versions and none would boot up past a splash screen. All is fine now but still have a headache lol.

Root/recovery

Hey guys just received brand new HTC one out of the box. Just wondering quickest method of root right now and what people are using for their recoveries. Yes I have researched but I see a lot of things out there. I'm sure one of your guys response would be quicker. If you could post links for root and a good recovery that would be appreciated. I'm on 4.2.2 thanks in advance.

I assume you have the international unlocked One, not any of the U.S. carrier branded Ones.
1) Go to htcdev.com, create an account. Choose the option to unlock the bootloader. You need the fastboot drivers. Easy to find
2) Once you're bootloader unlocked, flash TWRP recovery from this link:
http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
3) Install SuperSU once u have TWRP(the app will be installed automatically). Run the app
4) You're rooted. Very naize
P.S. I would advise u to S-OFF your phone after rooting it, coz certain ROMs aint compatible with S-ON, ur default. So, before installing the 4.4.2 OTA, flash ARHD 31.6, run the rumrunner tool

Verizon wireless u.s.a and I'm on 4.2.2 and I waited to update to kitkat because I didn't know if there was an exploit for root and stuff like that. Can my bootloader still be unlocked? Keep in mind I'm 100% stock on 4.2.2 I just kind of need to be steered in the right direction on what to do next seeing as though there is an overwhelming amount of mods out for this phone.

Yeah, u need to use rumrunner tool, not the HTC dev unlock.
http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/
Download for Verizon, READ THE INSTRUCTIONS AND PRE-REQUISITES CAREFULLY
And, btw, this is not the thread for the Verizon One. Hence, there are no ROMs which support the Verizon variant. Flashing a ROM from the development thread for HTC One WILL BRICK UR PHONE. Make sure u flash ROMs/MODs for the Verizon One from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one
FYI, if u want the most mods/roms, u should have bought the unlocked One

Return to stock...

If I return my UK, unlocked, m7 to stock and wait for the "official" sense 6 update, should I still be able to re unlock bootloader so I can reflash ARHD70 ? The reason I ask is I think I read somewhere, recently, that someone couldn't unlock their bootloader after an hboot/firmware update.
I want to get latest firmware, when it's released, but don't want to go "s-off".
Cheers

However, once unlocked on 4.4.2, you can freely downgrade back to 4.1.2 and have an unlocked bootloader as well

Downgrading your security version will brick your device, so I wouldent suggest it.
However, you can use AOSP 4.1.2 with it.

Then just don't flash the security component. Just do System and I think boot? I'd have to check mine, but I went from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2 and back to 4.4.2 again. It can be done if you are careful

If you update everything to 4.2.2, unlock, then flash your modem, kernel and system to 4.1.2 you might have success.

The XT907 is surprisingly capable for its age.
Hoping that Verizon launches an LTE variant of the Moto G. It's a worthy successor to the RAZR M.

was this thread really necessary? the page u linked to links to a thread on xda in the razr m general section http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783912

Unlocked it the first chance I got but for some reason the custom recovery won't work. However, if you guys got it working on your phones, mind if you can toss me the rope, so I can fix it.
