i think this is due to HBOOT RADIO update, but your are the experts

PS i need this file "M7 CWM Nandroid Backup / Developer Edition / CID BS_US001 / 1.29.1540.3" the original host is dead

Last time I flashed RUU, I broke the bootloader. It took me more than 20 time to flash RUU to recover the phone. I will not suggest you to flash RUU unless it is really necessary.
If you really need flash RUU...
1. Go back the original hboot if you flashed customized one before
2. Change CID back to original CID if you changed it before
3. Return to S-On
4. Re-lock phone
5. Flash RUU
Also, if you flash 4.3 RUU, the hboot will be upgrade, which means the current S-Off solution will not work. You have to flash RUU without hboot to keep the ability to get S-Off.

i think this is the problem, the HBOOT, can i use the files from a ZIP file, (i mean an ORIGINAL ZIP FILE)? if so how can i flash only the HBOOT, radio ETC???
BTW my cid is original, and i just relocked my bootloader
EDIT
just found the original base firmwares thread and i got the files, the question now is, can i DOWNGRADE? im on 1.54 and want to go back to 1.44, please notice im S-OFF, or just flash the base firmware from hboot 1.54?

thanks, im updated, the problems was in the HBOOT, so flashed the original one and then applied the RUU and now im on 4.3
thanks

Reboot to fastboot.
Flash custom Recovery.
Flash superuser script.
Flash whatever ROM.
The specifics of how to do those 4 above steps should be in every guide. Just search the guide a bit

My phone is refurbished and it's still on Android 2.3.3 (It won't update) In case it helps.

Okay. This is a stupid question.. but just in case.. is your bootloader locked or unlocked?? I feel something is wrong there..
The same happened with one of my friend too..

Just run revolutionary. Flash custom recovery. Flash Superuser script and you're good to go.
Also stop posting the same issue multiple times. Its possibly the easiest way to piss another XDA member off. Post once about your issue in the general forum and DO NOT post again somewhere else.

Yes I was able to do it. Since it's S-OFF but still unlocked so it won't allow you. So I followed this link:

One of the benefits to being S-OFF is you can flash older RUU's
Are you 100% sure you are S-OFF? Does it say S-OFF in your bootloader?

Doesn't make any difference (still fails), what else can I do?
I reset to stock using all the options in Guru Reset M7 2.24.161.1, tried the OTA and it failed with the same error.
I then assumed it had failed because my bootloader was unlocked so I flashed CWM, then flashed Guru Bootloader Reset and set it to Remove Tampered and Relock Bootloader.
I do not intend staying on Stock, all I want is updated firmware (old firmware is causing me issues on CM11) so maybe there is another non disruptive way of updating the firmware?

So, does having an unlocked bootloader not break OTA's then?
I'm 99% sure I tried OTA updates the second my phone reverted to stock using Guru Reset but I'll run it again just to be sure.

Cool, thanks.
All I'm trying to do here is get the latest firmware the quickest way possible, then I'm going back to CM11, I've got no interest in sticking with Sense.
If there's a quicker way of achieving this instead of flashing JB 4.2, JB 4.3, JB 5.0, K 4.4 (Sense 5), K 4.4 (Sense 6) then that would be perfect.

The handset took an OTA (conventionally) then I tried to flash the 4.3/Sense 5.5 OTA which failed a couple of times. I've now managed to flash 4.3/Sense 5.5 so am going to try KK 4.4/Sense 5.5 then KK4.4/Sense 6
My carrier keeps trying to send me 4.2 as a proper OTA for some reason, this is failing as the phone is already on 4.3
I think I am making (slow) progress. The quicker I can get away from stock the better

Your firmware is very old, most newer roms recommend to be on a 7.xx.xxx.x firmware, you are on a 1.xx.502.xx firmware
You can't flash a no red text firmware on a s-on phone
firmware must be flashed in ruu mode not directly from the bootloader:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootlaoder
Your phone is at&t branded so you can only flash at&t signed firmware on it (x.xx.502.x not other version like x.xx.401.x)
If s-on, bootloader must be locked or relocked before flashing signed firmware or signed ruu.

no, your not s-off, you fastboot getvar all quite clearly shows you are s-on------------ (bootloader) security: on
your best bet for now as you are on a very old firmware, in fact one of the first release firmwares, you are on 1xxxxxxxxx everyone else 2 years later is on 7xxxxxxxx, is flash this rom in a TWRP 2.6.3.3 recovery (you may have to use an earlier version of recovery than that) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=6697
and then try and get s-off using rumrunner http://rumrunner.us/ or you can try this version of moonshine: http://moonshine.io/downloads/getfile.php?file=i3jm4u8412zx or finally try revone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582
do not try and flash any lollipop roms, they wont work and you will have all sorts of problems.
if you get s-off, you can then change your cid and mid and update your firmware to the latest version and flash any Lollipop roms you like.

I am depressed right now. Moonshine download page take forever to appear. I can't sideload to put my rom in my phone.
I shouldn't flash lollipop, I have done a biggest and worse problem in my life so far. (
P.s.: I already unlocked my bootloader and my TWRP is 2.6.3.4 is working
EDIT: Flash a new TWRP. Wow it has a USB Mass Storage no more sideload

just a small side note (sorry didnt read the whole thing), but i think that is a patched hboot 1.44 (check the date, if it's June 2013 or later then it's patched) against revone & moonshine, so
either
a) use the att downgrade method ruu
b) use rumrunner
