[SOLVED] Google'd and Google'd but still need help

Hi guys
I have looked and looked but need some help
I have a HTC One which I successfully converted to a "stock" GPE with no problems, but I have found that I miss some little bit HTC Zoe for example.I can detect the device with ADB and can use oem writecid to change to HTC__001 which I need to flash the RUU.zip
I have tried tool kits and adb but I am having no luck with the following.
Changing the MID so I can flash a stock RUU
Unlocking the RELOCKED bootloader
I have S-Off
Below is where I am at the moment.
******RELOCKED*******
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID-GOOGL001
HBOOT- 1.54. 0000
RADIO-4T. 21. 3218. 21
OpenDSP-v32. 120. 274. 0909

With S-OFF you don't need an unlocked bootloader tu flash in ruu mode.
so change your CID to HTC__001:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then use this tool to change MID back to PN0710000
you must use this tool from custom recovery so if you are on stock recovery, yes you will have to unlock bootloader again and flash latest twrp recovery.Unlock Via htcdev or with s-off method, as you wish.
then follow nkk71's guide to return to stock (linked in my signature below). Follow post #1 and #3 (use ruu.zip method) with 1.28.401.7 ruu.zip from htc1guru.com

Thanks for your help

I used HTCDev to get unlock, I have kept the unlock.bin but it doesn't seem to work now.....is that because I have changed CID and MID? Do i need to go back to HTCDev and get another unlock
Thanks for the quick reply...exactly what i needed a clear concise way ahead rather than me stumbling around with frustration

@lspec230 just to be sure you see that I have edited my above post with additional info
if you have more questions, just ask here. I'll be back in a few hours but im sure others members will assist you here.

I went to HTCDev and got a new Unlock_code.bin with no trouble at all.
Used the following and all appears to push to the device but then nothing, I dont get the HTC Bootloader splash screen asking if i want to proceed.

Forget about the bootloader unlocking. Change MID/CID and flash a full RUU!
Luckily you are soff

Also, are you rooted?

Still no luck
Not sure what's going on....I cant install TWRP on there to change the MID or Flash a stock RUU
I tried from ADB and for past experience from Samsung also copied it to the phone hoping I could flash from recovery, but there isn't an option for that.
Cant help but think the RELOCKED flag is causing the problems.
I will try a factory reset and cache/partition wipe and start again.
I suppose one option is to flash a RUU that will work with my current MID. Then start the process from there.....

1- Why oh why did you go S-On?? You don't need S-On for OTAs
2- Why dint you read this: "---------> Note: M7_UL .401. users don't use 1.20.401.1, use 1.28.401.7 instead"
Okay so now you're S-On, bootloader locked or unlocked?
bootloader has to be locked or relocked, then go ahead and flash the 1.28.401.7 ruu.zip, then get S-Off!
then stay UNLOCKED and S-Off and take all the OTAs you like then report back
any reason you need S-On??

okay, so slow it down a little, take a deep breath and no panicking or rushing things!!! okay?
Here's what you're going to do:
1- lock/relock bootloader
2- flash ruu.zip 1.28.401.7
3- DO NOT TAKE ANY OTAs
4- use revone, to get S-Off, and unlock your phone
Once that is done report back, if you have questions, please go ahead ask before doing things

PS: if ruu.zip fails, giving "signature fail" it's cause it's not signed and you are now S-ON.
in that case use RUU.EXE: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...1-27_10-31-1131-05_release_310878_signed-exe/
no need to "downgrade hboot", just run the RUU.EXE, NOTHING ELSE and report back with a "fastboot getvar all"

[Q] Help M7 stuck in fastboot

Hi.
I've been trying to follow instructions from several threads about restoring an M7 to un-rooted, relocked, stock O2 ROM.
Things have gone badly from the start and I've tried so many different people's posts about what I should do that I'm completely confused now and need some help getting back on track.
At the moment all I've got is a hboot screen with fastboot working (unable to boot into recovery)
The last thing I did before this all went bed was to use 'fastboot oem relock' (which worked) I've tried 'fastboot oem unlock' but that says '[ERR] Command error !!!'.
I've tried flashing a stock rom.zip extracted from an O2 RUU but it fails with the code 'FAILED (remote: 22 loading zip info fail Please check if you flash part)'.
This is the 'getvar all' result.

remove your imei and serial number from your output above, its dangerous to post them.
according to your hboot which is 1.57 you wont beable to use that ruu, you cant back flash unless you have s-off.
also, only way to unlock your bootloader is at HTC dev again, you cant use a command to do it, so start there.

Thanks for the tip (oops) So is that the first step I need to do, unlock the bootloader again? Just checking before I go ahead. Thanks.
Update...
I went to the HTCDev site to unlock again (I know I'm impatient but I'm running out of time to get this done) but it didn't work. This is what the site reported back:-
We're sorry, but it appears your attempt to unlock the bootloader on this device has failed. This could be caused by several factors including simple errors in the entry of the unlock token, problems with your device, or a lack of manufacturer support for the unlocking process. Please see the specific error code listed below, and try again if necessary.
Error Code: Invalid Bootloader Token Length.
Error Reason: The submitted Token appears to be the wrong length and won't work.

yes that's the first step, then you need to decide if you want to go s-off and flash that original rom of yours, or go unbranded, or just flash a custom recovery and a custom rom.
---------- Post added at 07:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:59 PM ----------
in fact, thinking about it, you will have to go with custom rom and recovery as you need a rom on your phone to go s-off.

strange, that's the only way your going to be able to unlock your bootloader, and unfortunately, there's nothing you can do with a relocked bootloader, can you post your token here so I can look over it.

that's very strange, just tried mine and it worked, tried yours and I got the same messages as you, but they are the same length etc.
Is this how you unlocked your bootloader before ? do you still have your original token anywhere ?

Okay, that worked! (Phew). I now have an unlocked bootloader again.
So to get from my custom ROM, custom recovery and 'unlocked/tampered' state back to a stock rom/recovery and locked bootloader......what order do I have to do things? I know this is a big ask but I don't want to end up in a muddle again! Thanks.

if you have a working rom on there now then you will have to get s-off to do everything you want to do.
Try firewater first: http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/
if that fails then you will have to use sunshine, but you do have to pay for that: http://theroot.ninja/
out of interest, which rom are you running at the moment ?

The stock O2 RUU was from HTC1guru.com (I think) I had to dig around quite a lot to find it. If I find the address I'll post it here.

try this version of adb and fastboot instead, sounds like its out of date and also check your device manager, make sure it says MyHTC when your phone is plugged in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

It looks like you typed adb reboot <–important!!!! the <-important!!! should not have been typed. It is just a comment. You will notice on the firewater page it is bold where the rest of the type is not.

Don't worry, I didn't type the important! bit
I'm not sure how much more time I want to spend trying to reset this device, maybe I'll just return it to O2 as it is and see if they even care that it's been unlocked!
I'll try the link you suggested and report back :tired:

Hi.
I think my guardian angel must have had a hand in this because I was only trying to reset the phone to return it due to the microphone not working. After all of these failed attempts I factory reset the current rom and bingo! Microphone working again and no need to return to O2
But thanks for all of the help you offered, I would have a lot less hair and more wrinkles without you.

[SOLVED] HTC One back to STOCK ROM!?

Hello,
I've changed the ROM on my HTC One and I want to go back to stock ROM.
Current device status:
- ROOTED
- S-OFF
- SUPERCID
- TWM RECOVERY
- CyanogenMod ROM
I'm not bothered about returning to 100% stock I just want the stock ROM back. My handset was locked to VODAFONE UK (CID VODAP001)

your phone is s-off which mean you can use every RUU out there. JUst change your CID/MID if required before running the ruu. If you dont want to use a ruu, you can flash a stock guru reset rom or stock odexed rom that match your firmware version.

So all I do is change the CID back and then use RUU or reflash? How do I know what firmware I'm using?

Can I use this to go back stock after changing my CID back...

A couple of questions, first:
Why (it helps to know what your ultimate goal is)
Do you need to go back to Vodafone or are you OK with unbranded
Do you intend on going S-ON

Thank you so much for getting back to me!
1. Because I've installed loads of ROMS and not one I like or they intend to freeze etc
2. I'm more then happy to go back unbranded as long as I can still get OTA updates
3. Nope

hmm, I haven't had problems with most ROMs I've tried, but to each his own
change CID to international WWE unbranded:
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001 <- two underscores (CID is exactly 8 chars)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem readcid
^^ confirm it now says HTC__001
then you run RUU:
http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p...10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe
let me know if you have problems with that ruu, in which case you'd need to first downgrade your firmware.
I have a decrypted 1.28 version, that would flash pretty easily, but then you'd have to take a lot more OTA's... if that doesn't bother you let me know and i'll link instructions to it.
Anyway, i'll decrypt the 4.19 version and upload, but that's gonna take more than a few hours to upload.
PS: the RUU, will obviously wipe EVERYTHING off your phone, so backup to PC first, and yes, OTAs will be fine even with unlocked bootloader

[Q] Downgrade to KitKat+Root - Help?

So my M7 started heating up, chewing battery. Everything was fine with the first L update, but after the second one, something went wrong.
Now, I don't really want to do a factory reset - if I don't have to. And to be honest, it never helped with these random battery/cpu hogs in Android.
So!
- Could anyone link me the latest KitKat RUU? OR whatever I have to flash/install?
- The warranty is now gone for the phone, so I also want to root. How should I root? Via HTCDev? Sunshine?
If I can install KitKat somehow without losing files, I would just Sunshine - would save me tons of work (restore).
Thanks!
Ps.: I am not lazy, and I really tried to find the answers - but compared to how easy to flash an LG or Samsung, HTC looks like a spacecraft.
Seriously, while the two other have simple firmware files, and a simple app to flash, HTC got RUU, different unlocks, different firmwares, etc.
* I also thought about switching it to GPE, but honestly, 5.1 is not any better.
And it's the last update for the M7... it's a dead end anyhow.
KitKat will serve this phone perfectly fine for +1-2 years.

If your goal is to return to kitkat then
1- return to kitkat, how exactly will be determined after you have posted your "fastboot getvar all"
2- root the phone (unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery, flash latest supersu.zip)

RUU will wipe everything
Flashing a rom requires an unlocked bootloader, unlocking the bootloader wipes everything.
So you will lose your files, backup first.

Sorry for the noob question, command issued while in normal mode through ADB?
Or in fastboot through ADB?

fastboot commands are always/can only be issued when the phone is booted in bootloader mode with "fastboot usb" red caption showing.
adb commands are/can only be used when booted in the OS with usb debug turned on or from a custom recovery no matter if usb debug is turned on or off.

I want the latest 4.4 FW/ROM, preferably stock.
(But if that Revolution rom works fine, I am also fine with that one.)
--------------------------------
UPDATE:
Ok, so I thought I will try things by myself... it cannot be that hard.
I was wrong.
I am now more confused than ever.

Since that your phone is s-on you can not use a RUU to downgrade, you will have to unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery and finally flash a 4.4 rom. You'll will not be able to downgrade the firmware with S-ON, you can only change your rom.
to unlock the bootloader go at www.htcdev.com/bootloader and follow the instructions
once done flash a custom recovery, preferably TWRP 2.8.6.0:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.6.0-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
boot in recovery and transfer the rom zip file you want to flash to your phone storage.
in twrp select "install" and flash your rom.

Could you link me a 4.4 ROM, please?
Preferably Stock, HTC Sense one.
I checked the pinned thread, but every file is 404 (missing) by now, since it's a very old thread/post.
Thank you!

Stock 4.4.2 rom, latest version before lollipop (6.09.401.12)

Thank you!
I have managed to unlock + root (that wasn't really so hard, using Sunshine would have been harder). Will try to stay on L now, see if the reset helped with the battery drain. If not, it's time for Kitkat!
