[Q] htc one sprint ruu failing. help please

Help please?? I am trying to RUU my HTC One. I successfully relocked my bootloader.
However, when I start the process, it fails (unknown error). I am told that I need to use the "correct" RUU and try again. My problem is that the one I am using claims to be correct. Sprint_HTD_One_m7wls_1.29651.10_RUU.zip
I have noticed that when I am going through the RUU process I am shown the screen that asks to compare the current version with the new one. The current image version is blank. Nothing there. No current image version at all.

The RUU you are trying to flash is a downgrade, thats why you can't flash it. 1.29.651.10 is for hboot 1.44 and you are on 1.56. You need s-off to downgrade with a ruu.
Refer to the sprint htc one forum to see if this is possible to s-off your phone on hboot 1.56 and then downgrade using the ruu
or
flash a rom for sprint htc one.

first your bootloader is relocked, you'll need to unlock it.
flash twrp recovery for M7WLS (sprint variant)
then download a sprint compatible rom. You can find them here .
push it to your phone and flash it.
If you have questions about how to do any of these steps ask me here, we'll go step by step...

My basic problem is that my radios were not connecting with Sprint at all. So, I understand that I need to do a RUU to fix that. Flashing a custom rom won't fix that (?). Now, I am unlocked with S-on. I have TWRP available. When I reboot, I am taken to the HTC lock screen, but if I unlock it, I get a white HTC screen that lets me do nothing.
I just want to get it back to what I had when I took it out of the box. If you can walk me though this, I would appreciate it. I am NH if we can do this vocally.

With s-on, its not possible to use the available ruu. You could use the latest guru reset rom available for your phone. Select the option to wipe, install stock recovery and stock radio.

Is it possible to get my s-off again? If so, how might I do that?

download this ruu.zip http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu-zip-m7_wls_jb_50_sprint_1-29-651-10_ruu_decrypted-zip/
save it in the same folder where adb and fastboot are
reboot your phone in bootloader mode, select fasboot, plug your usb cable.
open your command prompt from fastboot/adb folder
type:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
(make sure you use capital letter for RUU)
your phone will reboot in ruu mode, a black screen with a silver HTC logo
then type:
Code:
fastboot flash zip <name_of_ruu_you_have_downloaded>.zip (without < and >)
wait for the ruu to flash. It will probably output something like: failed, flush image again so do the same command again
Code:
fastboot flash zip <name_of_ruu_you_have_downloaded>.zip (without < and >)
then
Code:
fastboot reboot
your phone should boot to your stock rom.

the download link from htcguru is broken... no download available there
Is there anything else I can use? a different link, perhaps?

I have just tested the link and it work fine for me, the download speed isn't great atm but you'll be able to get the file in maybe 1 hour (200-300 Kb/sec)

The download has begun working but all my attempts truncate/stop at around 20MB... Nowhere near 1gb. I will keep trying -- because right now I have an HTC One with working Cyanogenmod... but no connectivity at all with Sprint.
Do you happen to have a copy you can throw in dropbox for me?
And... this is the first time I've ever used these forums, so, I am still learning what I am doing. Thanks for your patience
I did download a rom called
Sprint_HTC_One_3.04.651.2_Stock_Rooted_Odexed.zip
If I flash this, will it fix my radios or will it just put me deeper in the hole?
I am on my 10th try for the htc1guru ... but none has made it past 40mb

I finally was able to download the entire file. Then, I carefully followed instructions as you sent...
At last step, I received a "failed 32 header error"
so, I repeated the flashboot flash zip command again. same error
repeated a third time. same error
did fastboot reboot and.... nothing still at cyanogenmod with no connectivity. It didn't take.
It went as planned up until the Failed message.
Please tell me you have another idea or a way to deal with this.

I did finally get the entire file... and did everything you suggested. Unfortunately, I got a Failed remote "32 header error"
I repeated the whole procedure a second time. Still nothing. I checked the MD5 of the file and it apparently was corrupt.
SO... I was back to Cyanogenmod 11 with no Sprint. As a last ditch try before retiring to bed, I came upon a zip file that said it had Sprint radio files. I figured, heck, what have I got to lose? So, I flashed the small zip. and POOF... works! My phone is back AND I didn't have to go back to stock.
I do want to say THANK YOU for all your help. Knowing you were there to help me along encouraged me not to throw my phone under a passing truck. I am sure that once we got that dang file downloaded correctly, it would have worked.
Even though it didn't turn out as we started.... your help was immeasurable for me. Thanks again.

Did you flashed a sprint compatible custom rom? You can't flash custom roms for the M7_UL on your m7_wls, both phones haves different partitions layout. Reflash a sprint custom Ron using a sprint compatible custom recovery or flash the latest sprint ruu from htc website (Google search: htc support rom download).

ok in your case, this will be very easy :good:
first backup every important file (if any) from your phone to your computer, everything will be wiped, including your sdcard content (picture, song, video)
reboot phone in bootloader mode by holding power and volume down
when in bootloader, open a terminal window from your fastboot/adb folder and type:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid BS_US001
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then download this ruu and save it to your adb/fastboot folder. you can rename it ruu (ruu.zip), it will be easier in the terminal.
with phone still on bootloader mode, from the terminal window type:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
make sure "RUU" in rebootRUU are capital letters. you will now see a black screen with silver htc logo
type:
Code:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
it will say something like: "failed, flush image again immediately" so do the same command again:
Code:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
then
Code:
fastboot reboot
now your phone will boot normally (first boot can take longer than usual).
when phone is booted, go trough the setup process and then go in settings ---> phone ---> software update.
download and install each ota update from 3.22.1540.1 to 6.07.1540.1 (6 updates total)
or you can proceed like @yatindroid said, 2 differents ways for the same result. both method will works.

with your method i dont have to flash firmware first? just change the CID and flash the RUU? I noticed my MID is the same as the Developer Edition anyway.

i wanna say thanks. sure i can click a button but i want you guys to know you've been very help and i appreciate it. ive been pulling my hair out with this phone every since i rooted it. I think after i do this ill be back to where i want to be. Id love to be Bell stock again but i find bell stuff hard too find. Developers Edition shud suit me just fine

exactly.
MID is already correct
just change mid to BS_US001
and flash the 3.22.1540.1 ruu.
advantage of my method is that its simpler
disadvantage is that its an old version and you'll have to download and install 6 ota updates.
advantage of yatin's method is that its a less old version and will only require 2 ota updates
disadvantage (not really big disadvantage) is to flash the firmware first, if not the ruu.exe will not flash. Personally i don't use 4.xx.xxx.x RUU because I never found any clue that they are official ruu released by HTC (not on their website). But it seem to works fine, I think yatin converted his phone using that ruu
both solution are good, just make sure you flash the right firmware if you go with the 4.xx.1540 ruu

yes bootloader will stay unlocked and no need to relock it since dev edition phone came with an unlock bootloader from factory.

question though, once i get fully update to date with the dev edition, can i install TWRP and when any new updates come just install the stock recovery? i like using HTC One Tweaker and Sense 6 toolbox.

if your bootloader is already unlocked, yes you can flash a custom recovery and then revert back to the stock 6.07.1540.1 recovery and install ota.
if your bootloarder is locked, you'll need to unlock it in order to flash a custom recovery and that will wipe /data/preload files and you'll will not be able to install ota directly.
to install ota, you need:
stock recovery
untouched /data/preload files
untouched /system files
Best thing to do is to make a nandroid backup right after flashing twrp. So if some /system files get modified (with a custom kernel for example) you'll be able to restore the backup, flash the stock recovery and install ota.
in last resort you can always flash your phone back to stock with a ruu and apply all ota.

Latest version for this phone should be 6.09.401.11 (android 4.4.3 and Sense 6)
If you haven't modded anything on your phone, I'm not sure why you are not receiving any notification...
Maybe you could try to factory reset and look for updates again.
There is also a ruu that could bring your phone up to 4.19.401.9. Then you might be able to receive ota updates from this point.

before you flash the ruu, I would recommend to try a factory reset first and then check for update again. Backup everything before as both the RUU and Factory reset will wipe your phone.
The ruu can be found here: http://www.htc1guru.com/2014/03/android-ruu-europe/
its a windows executable file so you only have to launch it and follow instructions

And btw if you are considering to achieve s-off, might be a better idea to achieve it now, before updating. S-off is harder to achieve on newer versions.

[Q] SuperCID and RUU WWE

Hi
I have Unlocked Bootloader, S-Off and SuperCID, installed GPE ROM via RUU.zip
Now I need to install ROM via RUU. exe but I don't see superCID on supported CID list.
Will stock GPE ROM boot with CID HTC__032?
Or... Can I flash this RUU on superCID?
This RUU is here:
http://bit.ly/1EPvdwI

Super CID will help you or better have same CID as gpe have
Because ruu checks CID & MID and can give errors

ok. I changed it to HTC__032 and RUU force closes during gathering device information on Windows 7.
On Windows 8 fastboot crashes :/
all systems are 64-bit
But... If I have GPE ROM and firmware 5.0.1 can I flash KitKat based ROM's eg ViperOne?

Gpe have CID like GOOGLE01 I'm not sure better search before changing
Your 032 certainly not help you use win 7
ViperOne need sense firmware GPE firmware not good

you must install all of them one at a time with reboots inbetween each, and if you have a full RUU make sure your MID also matches, you may also have to flash the corresponding sense firmware first.

Thanks, do NOT at any point go s-on, you need to flash the stock sense firmware first then run the RUU
http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/401/
you need 4.19.401.9
Because you are s-off you will not need to re-lock the bootloader nor lock it, just run the RUU whilst your phone is still in fastbootUSB mode straight after the firmware flash.

no it shouldnt crash, its a different type of fastboot kind of................basically when you install an RUU, the software is installed first and the last thing the RUU does is flash the firmware, however, because you have GPE firmware on your phone, the software install is failing, only way around it is to flash the firmware first, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733523 don't follow this guide, its just to give you an idea of what we are doing.
To flash a firmware you must be in bootloader/fastbootUSB mode.
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmwarefilename.zip
Then again
Fastboot flash zip firmwarefilename.zip (there will be some nerving pauses, just let it run, make sure it says successful before the next command) then:
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
Run RUU now..........

its very easy to fix, all you have to do is run the dev edition RUU again to make sure everything is fully stock for the update to work, however, your real issue is the fact it wont connect to your laptop, why not ? whats it doing ? what does device manager say ?

Ok. Connecting to computer im least bothered. I need it to be up and running.
I have unlocked bootloader, installed TWRP 2.7.1.1. Where can i get the dev edition RUU? Can i just run it from system by connecting phone in fastboot?

your computer needs to see the phone whilst the phone is in fastboot mode in the bootloader for anything to work, but the the updated lollipop RUU is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/general/guide-convert-m7-developer-edition-t2840311

Yeah, system is able to read commands from fastboot. So i have follow the 2nd part of the link above?

yes just the 2nd part as your already on dev edition, if it fails, you may have to download and install the firmware first, due to you running a custom recovery, you can find the firmware here, thanks to @alray https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=20283, you will want the 6.07.1540.2 firmware which matches your version main.

I have connected the device in fastboot and ran the RUU, but it failed saying Recovery, and then it exited the process on computer. But my phone is still in the same silver htc logo, does it mean its installing or it failed to install? And BTW how do i install that firmware and also there a few versions if the same firmware!
If you can help me with sorting out this it would be of great help!! Thanks in advance for all the help till now...

here you go, easy way, download this: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95897840722641610 rename it to rom.zip for ease
place it in the same folder as adb and fastboot on your computer, then open a command window there. first you need to get out of RUU mode, so type fastboot reboot-bootloader, your phone should return to the bootloader screen, then enter recovery on your phone, hopefully twrp recovery still, then type adb push rom.zip /sdcard/, takes a while but it will let you know when its done, it will look like its doing nothing whilst its pushing.
unplug your phone and flash the rom, select stock radio and stock recovery when prompted, when the phone starts back up, check for updates, as you are s-on your bootloader will need to be relocked to update.

Thanks man for the help.
let me try and install that thing. Need to know why to relock the boot loader? and how can i relock it?
