RUU is not working for my M7. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an AT&T M7 flashed with Cyanogenmod 10 that I would like to restock. I've tried the RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_Cingular_US_4.18.502.7_R10_Radio_4T.24.3218.09_10.26.1718.01L_release_356565_signed_2, but that is not working.
I mean it starts to run and then after asking for aproval it desapears.
I also tried the RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_Cingular_US_1.26.502.12_Radio_4A.14.3250.13_10.33.1150.01_release_318450_signed_2, and this one runs but at the end it says that is not compatible with my phones firmware.
This is the phone info:

Thanks a lot for your response! Actually my real intention is not to go back to 1.26.502.12, but to go back to the latest stock available. Is just that the 4.18.502.7 RUU did not work for me.
If downgrading will solvwe my problem where do I get a copy of the 1.44 hboot for AT&T. I do not find one with the 502 identification.

Did you check the md5 of the 4.15.502.7 ruu you downloaded?
Also if you have HTCsync installed then uninstall it. Doesn't do any favours when using ruu's :good:

I've downloaded the file from 2 different sources and the resilt is the same.

Is the RUU quiting after you accept the license agreement , if so, its a windows error not an RUU error, read and do the fix below:

Seems that you are right. I tried all the suggestions here but none of them worked on my PC. So Idecided to try on my laptop. The thing is that the RUU did run well but unfotunately it ends with an error 170 usb connection error.
The laptop recognizes the phone well so I cant understand the reason for the error.

make sure the computer recognises the phone whilst the phone is both booted and in the bootloader with fastbootUSB showing on the phone screen.

Ok guys I did it thanks to your help.
Now what is the prefered rooting method and should I take the OTA or not?

yes take the OTA's, if you dont like the new Lollipop you can always just flash the RUU again to get back to the older versions as your s-off.
after you've done the OTA's, to root, just flash twrp recovery: http://dl.twrp.me/m7/twrp-2.8.5.0-m7.img and then flash the superSU zip from within TWRP recovery: http://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU, complete root setup once the phone has started back up by opening superSU from your app drawer.

And I'm longing for that moment! Thanks again.
Since I did change the stock recovery to TWRP just for rooting the phone, could I still take the OTA upgrade or does it have to be done manually?
I also installed Xposed Framework and some HTC Modules.

I did something bad to the phone and would like to go back to stock can I use the RUU again and how? Because I tried and it gives a fastboot error a few seconds after starting. The RUU is actually a downgrade.
I was trying to mod the Weather widget to transparent and I ended without the widget and the phone goes to black and takes too long to come back to light the screen.
the error is htc.fastboot.exe has stopped working

OK, in reading through your posts, it sounds like you currently have HBOOT version 2.00.0000 Unlocked on your phone. That version is not going to let you install an older RUU/PG32IMG.zip file. You will have to flash the Sense 3.0 /3.08.405.3 RUU to get rid of CM7.

OK, since you have the HBOOT in an UNLOCKED state, the PG32IMG.zip/RUU will not update. You need to go into FASTBOOT mode and relock the HBOOT and then you can flash the PG32IMG.zip file.

thank you very much !

As if I'd never touched it

Is there a way to make it so my HTC One is back to complete factory settings. I want it back as if I'd never touched it. Unrooted, locked, S-ON, HTC Sence, stock firmware, etc.
I'm not so great at all this stuff, so some simple instructions rather than just a tonne of links would be great! Eg. flash this, do this, install this recovery, etc.
Thanks,
Joe

you want to return it to stock like if you had never touched it.. So you want stock software, locked bootloader and S-ON ? If you are not sending your phone for a repair under warranty, I'll recommend you to keep unlocked bootloader and S-OFF or at least locked bootloader but S-OFF. Do you want to be on latest stock version? If yes then its almost impossible to s-off again on hboot 1.56.
What is your goal to restore your phone back to 100% stock?
Also need to know what operating system is on your computer.

Just in case I do need to send it off for repair or replacement, I don't want a tampered device. Just don't want that risk. I'm running WIndows 7.

You should keep s-off unless really necessary, not ''just in case''. If you need to send your phone for repair in the future, with s-off, you'll be able to remove the tampered flag and s-on again before sending it back to repair. But atm turning back S-ON is the risk you should not take imo.
Again if you go back to stock and update your phone to the latest version then it will be very difficult or even not possible to s-off again.
Im waiting your decision to guide you.
S-OFF is a gift and should never be taken for granted. If you throw it away it may not be available to you again.
S-ON is an operation I would defer until I learned that I actually *need* to send in the phone to someone who cares if it is S-ON or not.
S-ON is always the last step in any "going back to stock " process, the very last thing before the phone leaves your possession. And even then the step is usually optional. Warranty repair people often don't care, eBay doesn't care, it's just really rare that there is *any* actual benefit.

Okay, I think I'll stick with S-OFF, I just want a really stable build, as close to stock as possible. Decent battery life, decent speed, and not too much hassle to return to complete stock if necessary.
I'll take your advice on what you think is best!

You can use the stock RUU for your phone version, so you'll be 100% stock rom but with s-off and unlocked bootloader

Easy to do with S-OFF
So you can use the latest RUU for your phone which you can find here
this will make your phone 100% stock (except s-off and unlocked bootloader). This will wipe everything on your phone so be sure to backup your media and personal data before on your computer.
download the exe file (about 1.5Gb)
plug your phone to your computer ( I assume your htc drivers are already installed correctly, if yes, your device is listed as ''My HTC'' in windows device manager)
launch the ruu.exe and follow instructions.

Easy to do with S-OFF
So you can use the latest RUU for your phone which you can find here

Hi there,
I downloaded the RUU and ran it and followed all instructions but it encounters an error every time. It doesn't give any information on what the error is, it just stays on the silver HTC logo and the software says it has failed. It doesn't get stuck in a bootloop though.
Thanks,
Joe

Hi,
I redownloaded it and ran it and it has been stuck on "0/5 sending" for the last 20 minutes or so, the interface says the whole process should take 10 minutes, is this normal?

I just read somewhere that hboot 1.44 might be needed, and I have 1.54. So I shall flash 1.44 and see if it works then!
EDIT: When trying to flash hboot 1.44 it won't even send the 501kb zip file, even through a brand new usb cable. Updating drivers now to see if that works

[Q] HTC One M7 firmware help!

Hey guys,
Sorry if I am in the wrong place for this question but I am completely stuck. I recently bought a HTC One M7 which was rooted. I did not know this when I was buying it. The new update came out and my phone asked me to update. I hit yes. My phone switched off and didn't come back on. After extensive research I got it back on to find the following:
1) It was rooted
2)Bootloader started up and TWRP is on the phone
3) There is now nothing on the phone. No firmware or packages at all
4) When I try to flash anything I get the error message: can't mount to system. I can mount to everything else ok just not internal storage.
I am unsure what recovery image and RUU to use. The phone (I was told was unlocked) was O2(Giffgaff).
Details are:

it seems to be both. I try to flash RUU via fastboot and I get a signature fail. So I try to flash a ROM to the phone and it says failed to mount system. I put the items on a usb and tried it but get an 'unable to unzip' error. Its a bit above me to be honest. Thank you so much for helping.

When you say run the RUU to you mean the RUU from the desktop or directly from the phone? How do I know if I have the correct RUU? the closest one I could find was for O2 and the radio was the same down to the last digit being different. Sorry for sounding stupid but it is a lot to take in for such a noob. I read that I need to flash a boot recovery image and then run the RUU is that right?

Post a fastboot getvar all
RUU.exe files or ROM Update Utility files are executable files that run on Windows PC
RUU.zip files are simply the same as above but rather than using a Windows exe file to run them, they are packaged in a zip file that can be flashed in Fastboot mode
The RUU has to match your CID/MID. If your S-On, the RUU as to be same version or higher

OMG My phone literally did the same exact thing today!! I woke up, a few things were force closing so I decided that I would just reboot the phone...... Big mistake, once I did that, the phone just stayed in the booting up animation. So I figured hey what ever ill just reflash the ROM in TWRP.......Nope, couldn't boot into recovery either, the phone would flash the TWRP screen then just reset itself. Again, I thought no biggie ill just reinstall TWRP. This (again) proved to be useless, after multiple (successful) install's the phone still refused to boot into TWRP. So I finally got CWM to install, a noticed a few things at the bottom of the screen about something not being mounted properly, I didn't pay that much attention to it, i just wanted my phone back at that point. I tried to wipe my phone for a fresh flash, but as soon as the wipe began the phone reset itself. At this point I was on the brink of throwing this thing into the torrential down-pour that god decided to place in my city.
Next I tried to install Viper ROM because I knew it had a wipe functionality built into it's Aroma installer. Went through all the checklists got to the start install screen, clicked next, and then began to wipe......... and then reset again........
So finally I got TWRP reinstalled, and go install a fresh ROM and and immediately met with a screen full of : "Unable to Mount XXXXXXX" (Picture attached). So then I figure alright well my last resort has to be to use a RUU. Found this nice little thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2316726) and decided to use the FUU (4.19.401.11 Full Wipe). Unfortunately all that did was move my HBoot from 1.4 (or something like that) to 1.5 (or something like that), put the tamper flag back, and bring back the annoying red text at the bottom of the phone at boot (the thing about development build, blah blah blah). I reinstalled TWRP yet again hoping for the best, but still nothing. It cant seem to mount anything (what ever that means).
So now im here, stuck using my old One X. Any suggestions or answers or criticism would be very much appreciated.
Thank you!!!!!

So confused - OTA Updates & Rooted/Modified M7 - please help!

Hi all,
My girlfriend has a HTC One M7, currentley Rooted with an Unlocked bootloader, Bulletproof Kernel, CWM Recovery, S-On (can't get S-OFF no matter what I try) and running the stock 4.4.2 Sense ROM that came with the phone.
She wants to install an OTA update, obviously this won't work with the phone in it's current state. I've got experience with all of this with my Note II, but the M7 is just a whole different can of worms.
What I've tried:
Getting S-OFF (no luck whatsoever with any tools)
Flashing stock recovery and kernel
Flashing stock recovery and kernel and applying the OTA manually via recovery
I've read everything on here and nothing seems to go in. She just wants to be able to install OTA updates, even if it means unrooting her phone permanently as this will happen each time there is an OTA update.
Someone, please guide me in the right direction! Step by step maybe?
Keep in mind there is no way I can't get S-OFF.
Huge thanks to anyone that can help. I'd be eternally in your debt!!

I suppose the phone is trying to apply to ota update and then show a red triangle with an exclamation mark inside?
What I've tried:
Getting S-OFF (no luck whatsoever with any tools) Any error message when trying to S-OFF? You must use the correct tool for your hboot version (probably firewater) + combination of the correct rom + kernel
Flashing stock recovery and kernel --> You must have stock recovery for ota, ota will not install using a custom one.
Flashing stock recovery and kernel and applying the OTA manually via recovery --> appyling the ota manually from stock recovery require s-off

forget the ruu, your phone version is higher than the ruu. flashing a ruu (4.11.401.10) with a lower version than on your phone(4.11.401.11) require s-off.

No, this is the latest stock rom(5.11.401.10) for your phone model (MID: PN0710000 and CID:HTC__001) including android 4.4.2 and sense 6.0
You can flash this stock odexed rom(5.11.401.10) from custom recovery, then flash the stock recovery(5.11.401.10) over the custom one and your phone will be stock and ready to take future ota update. You may also want to update firmware to 5.11.401.10
So after flashing that rom and stock recovery, ota would be ready to roll? Would the kernel matter?
What's the purpose / Difference of firmware and how is it updated? On my note II it was just choose a rom choose a kernel and off you go. This is so much more involved

So after flashing that rom and stock recovery, ota would be ready to roll? Would the kernel matter?

stock kernel in included in the rom (boot.img) so if you don't flash any other kernel it should be fine.

firmware is all the low level code required for your phone hardware to works with the software (OS)
when speaking about HTC phone, firmware.zip include HBOOT(bootloader), BOOT(kernel), Recovery, Radio and some other stuff. if you want your phone to be 100% stock you need both stock rom + stock firmware to match the same version i.e 5.11.501.10
normally, the firmware is updated at the same time the rom version is updated (from an ota update) If you flash a rom, the rom will be updated but not the firmware.
Updating the firmware manually can be dangerous is you don't know what you are doing and flashing the wrong file. You can update firmware using this command from bootloader (with the correct firmware.zip package in the same folder you have adb and fastboot):
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
also it looks like flashing a 5.x.xxx.x firmware over a 3.x.xxx.x firmware will brick your phone. from what i see, your phone should be on a 4.x.401.x version at the moment, so it theory it should be fine.
Fails on:
>>>setting permissions
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /data/media/0/one_5.11.401.10_odexed.zip
(status 7)
Tried 3 different versions of cwm. Bad rom download?
Thinking about it I just re read your above post, could it be because the firmware isn't matched? I read your 'it should be fine' as 'dont update the firmware' not 'its fine to update' which I think is what you meant...
Firmware is 4.19.401.11 however the rom is 5.11.401.10. Can't believe I overlooked this, guess firmware needs to be 5.11.401.10 for the rom to take?

Is this a requirement of ARHD or....?
Just seems odd
Edit: success!! All seems to work. Thank you. She's overjoyed!!!

GPE no OTA update from 5.0.2 to 5.1

So I noticed that 5.1 came out for the GPE M7 around 2 months ago and I still haven't received my OTA update. Interestingly, all the articles I see mention it being an update for 5.0.1.... my GPE is on 5.0.2. Is that why I never received the update? If not, did I just miss it and they stopped pushing it or something? Where can I go from here to get the update OTA or otherwise? 5.0.2 has been horribly buggy from the start and my device is getting worse and worse as time goes on. I really need this update!
fyi, I did already post in the beginners thread and got no replies so I figured it may warrant its own thread.
Thanks!

Is that my only option now? Why did I not get the OTA update that others did?

Are you 100% stock gpe rom or not?
Post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (remove imei / sn before posting)
I bought this device used on ebay so I'm not 100% sure the history of it. I bought it as a GPE device and it even came with the google branded box (not a carrier box). I also received the 5.0.2 update OTA so it seems legit.
I'm at work right now and they disable the USB ports on our PCs here but I can run the adb command later if still necessary.

Afaik, there never was any 5.0.2 version for GPE, only 5.0.1 and then updated to 5.1
Yep post the "fastboot getvar all" later when you can, meanwhile go in settings --> about --> software info --> more. what is the build number?
I'm definitely on 5.0.2. Says so in the same section. I also don't see any information on an update for 5.0.2 for GPE M7 so I have no idea how I got it OTA.
Build #: LRX22G.H100 release-keys

Strange, first time I see 5.11.1700.100. I know 5.11.1700.3 which is 5.0.1 and 6.04.1700.6 for 5.1.
And the ota update for 5.1 is from 5.0.1 to 5.1 (from LRX22C to LMY47O)
Is the bootloader still locked and no tampered flag? Maybe you should s-off the phone and update manually to 5.1

still says "*** LOCKED ***" and says "M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH" right below
So did I end up with some leaked OTA update or something that wasn't actually supposed to go out? Maybe that explains why my phone is so buggy now.
If I s-off and manually update I will lose everything right since there is no update from 5.0.2 to 5.1?
So I've managed to unlock the phone, installed custom recovery but I can't get S-Off which I believe is needed to flash the stock RUU back on.
Rumrunner and moonshine both fail... probably because my phone is on some weird rom/kernel that no one has ever planned for.
Is there a way to get S-Off without these utilities? Is there a different way to get back to a stock GPE RUU with OTA that doesn't require S-Off?
I thought about maybe flashing the 5.1 GPE rom and then trying to use rumrunner on that. After getting S-Off, I'd revert back to a stock GPE RUU setup to have OTA updates and hope I don't end up with this 5.0.2 update again. What do you guys think? At this point I'm almost considering just flashing the GPE+ rom and not worrying about OTA updates. I'd just hate to have to lose all my stuff every time I need to update the rom (if the developer even decides to continue updating it)

You could try cm10 and firewater to get s-off

Why CM10 and not CM11? Is firewater just known to work for sure on 10?

Thanks! Just to confirm so I don't go through the whole process only to hit a wall again... Is this the ROM you are referring to? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2272945
nvm, the download link on that doesn't even work. I'll just get it off the CM site unless you have a better suggestion.

Firewater is discontinued and doesn't work anymore, try it yourself, you'll be redirected to sunshine website:
http://firewater-soff.com/
On hboot 1.54 you can try Rumrunner or Sunshine
Thanks for the info. I had actually figured that out on my own as soon as I started working on it. lol
I ended up paying for Sunshine and it worked even on my 5.0.2 rom so there was no need to switch over to CM.
Once I was S-Off, I was able to flash the non-rooted GPE RUU following the instructions here. Booted into it and it's currently downloading the proper update file via OTA LMY47O.H6
I still have no idea how I ended up with a 5.0.2 OTA update on a completely stock phone...
