[SOLVED] Can anyone help me fix my htc one m7? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently acquired an htc one m7. i decided it would be cool to root it and put a custom rom ( i have had experience in this i have done it on my s3 my galaxy tab 2.0 and a galaxy express) so i unlocked my bootloader, flashed a custom rom and rooted my device and i decided (stupidly) to erase everything from the device (System, data, internal storage, cache, and dalvik cache) but then i realized i didnt have the file on my phone and couldnt do anything with it so i started researching. i tried to gain s-off but with every solution i need to be booted up but i dont have an os so i cannot. i tried adb sideloading the file and it just errors. i tried pushing the file and flashing it and it errors. i tried fastboot flashing it but it wont verify it. i read on a forum on this site that said to flash roms with s-on you need to flash the boot image after. i tried this and it didnt work either. i also tried flashing the factory RUU with hasoon2000's all-in-one toolkit. this did not work. ive tried different recovery (but not different versions of these recoveries) everytime i try flashing a rom it errors and says it couldnt detect filesystem for /dev/block/plat then it cuts off and after it says mount: failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msn_ then it cuts off then it continues unmount of /system failed: no such volume (even tho in my file directory there defiantly is one) then it says patching system image unconditionally..... failed to open /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc. 1/b E: error executing epdater binary in zip ' /sdcard then cuts off. i have no idea how to fix this sorry for such a long post please help me.

This is the most common situation here, no worries, it can be fixed easily.
i tried to gain s-off

Why? you don't need s-off to recover from this situation, unless you want to downgrade using a RUU or convert your phone to another variant... Re-flashing another custom rom doesn't require s-off
but with every solution i need to be booted up but i dont have an os so i cannot.

Right, you need a working rom to achieve s-off. But you don't need S-OFF to flash a rom...
i tried adb sideloading the file and it just errors. i tried pushing the file and flashing it and it errors.

What is the error exactly? What is your TWRP recovery version? What rom exactly?
i tried fastboot flashing it but it wont verify it.

You can't flash custom roms from fastboot, it must be flashed from custom recovery. The only things that can be flashed from fastboot are recovery, firmware and ruu + flashing a firwmare or a ruu will require to be booted in RUU mode, not in bootloader mode.
i read on a forum on this site that said to flash roms with s-on you need to flash the boot image after. i tried this and it didnt work either.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This is true for most of HTC devices but not for the M7. The boot partition is not secured (not protected by s-on) and is flashed automatically when flashing a rom from custom recovery.
i also tried flashing the factory RUU with hasoon2000's all-in-one toolkit.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Which RUU exactly (link please) + post the output of "fastboot getvar all" and finally don't use any toolkits, work directly from the command prompt using fastboot and adb commands. Toolkits are not the best when in this situation.
everytime i try flashing a rom it errors and says it couldnt detect filesystem for /dev/block/plat then it cuts off and after it says mount: failed to mount /dev/block/platform/msn_ then it cuts off then it continues unmount of /system failed: no such volume (even tho in my file directory there defiantly is one) then it says patching system image unconditionally..... failed to open /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc. 1/b E: error executing epdater binary in zip ' /sdcard then cuts off. i have no idea how to fix this sorry for such a long post please help me.

This is the typical error of using an outdated recovery to flash a rom that require "block:by-name" support (e.g like trying to flash Cyanogenmod using twrp older than 2.7.x.x.) so again What is your recovery version and what rom and version is it?

If you want to flash CM12, update your recovery.
You might want to read this, this and this
TWRP can be downloaded from here and here

thank you very much @alray i flashed a more recent twrp and it worked so thank you for all of your help. it was the toolkit that flashed an old version, so yes the toolkit was not useful in this instance because the files used for the recovery were outdated. they should update them. lol thank you.

Unrooting failed

Recently just bought my one and never realised it was rooted till I got home with it. So I decided last night I would unroot it following a guide on youtube. Successfully relocked bootloader but when I try to flash a ruu I get 12 signature verify fail and a different ruu I get 43 main version check fail.
Hboot-1.54.0000
Radio-4a.17.3250.14
Os-2.24.401.8
Could someone tell me what ruu I should be using to make sure I have downloaded the correct one. I downloaded guru 2.24.401.8.
Thanks in advance.
The guru reset isn't a ruu.
However, you will re-turn to stock, right?
Are you in s-off? s-on?

How do I find out if S-on or sS-off? I am stuck in bootloader.
In bootloader there is write: s-off or s-on?
Or use the fastboot getvar all and post the result here, without your imei and s/n

The guru one gives me 12 signature verify fail. Should I be using 401.1 or 401.8? 8 is the one I have been using.
I thought I couldnt turn s-off due to hboot 1.54.0000.
I dont know how to flash it any other way apart from fastboot.

Mate, i think you're trying to flash the Guru zip as a firmware zip and this is wrong.
For flash the guru zip you've to install a custom recovery like TWRP, reboot in it and flash the file from the sd of the phone.
When the installation is finished, your phone will boot.
rumrunners give you an error because you've to use it when you're on android

Yeah I am flashing the zip through fastboot, ie fstboot flash zip ruu.zip.

There are guides for this.
you've to flash a custom recovery with
Code:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
and after boot in it and flash the guru zip.
If you don't have it on your sd, you've to push it with the code
Code:
adb push nameofrom.zip /sdcard/
Finally you can flash it through recovery

[Q] please help me restore my One

Good day all
I have been running CM 10.2 on my One for some months. Recently its started playing up so ive decided to go back to stock.
Ive googled the process. Fastboot works OK and see's my One connected OK.
Im having issues figuring out what RUU I should be downloading. Initially I went for RUU_M7_U_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.29.401.2
After a number of minutes it failed and said something like it cannot use this on my phone. My phone is a UK purchased unlocked device. Can anyone point me at the correct RUUI should download?
Looking at the fastboot screen I can see that my OS is 2.24.401.8
hboot is 1.54.0000
Please, any pointers to get a stock OS installed and my device booting again.

You can flash this (compatible with your firmware, CID & MID): http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-8-zip/
if you want to receive OTAs, you'll need to select "stock recovery" (which will overwrite custom recovery).

If you have unlocked bootloaders then download twrp or cwm and rename to recovery put the file in the fastboot folder.
Then type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
this will flash the custom recovery.

Do one thing install a custom rom like ARHD etc. and then S-off your phone using rumrunner.
This is going to be one of those jobs that just fails and all I end up with is a bricked phone.
I am a mac user and was using a windows XP VM to communicate with me phone using fast boot... When I try to push a recovery image XP fails badly and reboots...
I can't boot camp my mac because I'm running without a CD drive and boot camp needs a CD drive before installation.
Any tips on how to get my phone sorted using a mac?

1- just use mac versions of fastboot & adb, i believe you can find them here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365506
(or google for them)
2- do you care about having your phone "out-of-the-box"? that entails much more work.Can you live with an UNLOCKED or RELOCKED bootloader, and possibly the TAMPERED sign?
3- if you don't care about ^^ (2), then just use the Guru Reset ROM, i linked before.
get adb and fastboot working on mac, then in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB:
fastboot flash recovery <name of recovery>.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
-> enter recovery
adb push <name of guru>.zip /data/media/0/
then in recovery choose "install" and select the Guru Reset ROM.
Ok so i reloaded the recovery image. Rebooted and hey presto Cyanogenmod 10.2 loaded again. Phone is now working BUT I would still like to go back to stock.
With that in mind I followed your instructions above and tried to load the Guru zip on to the SDCARD. The ADB process finishes and it says its copied the file over but I can never seem to find it whe i load the recovery and try to install from a zip file.
Questions. Am I right in thinking I can continue to load the Guru zip to attempt to get back to stock?
What am i doing wrong?

if your phone is booting up again
just copy the guru.zip to the phone storage from your mac
no need to "push" if your phone is booting up
To confirm, I am now copying the zip over.
Is there a chance of me bricking the phone again or will the Guru zip return the phone to stock and allow OTA updates?

yeah the Guru reset was designed to put the phone back to stock
it uses an Aroma installer .. choose Stock Recovery to be able to receive OTA in the future. but you won't be able to flash any custom roms or Root with the stock recovery
that seemed to do the trick. phone is back stock.
after initial setup t imediately downloaded and installed a small update. rebooted and then asked to download another 4.3 675mb big update. that one seemed to reset the devce to new again. after setup the 2nd time i can see it didnt work as the phone was as if i had just completed the guru install...
thoughts?

I would also remove your serialno! Follow the steps in this post. You can use TWRP 2.6.3.3 or TWRP 2.7.1.2 as well as the one in the post.

I couldn't find a RUU for your phone, but here is a nandroid backup use Method 2. If you need the stock firmware you can get it here to run it your bootloader must be LOCK/RELOCK.

If I am following you correctly these are the steps you took:
First you flashed the firmware. Which firmware did you flash?
Then you unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom recovery. Which recovery?
Then you restored the nandroid from the post. Did you select root after the nandroid installed?
Then you cleared cache? Why?

I think the firmware you are using is not a compete package, generally firmware removed from OTA don't have all of the elements just those needed to run the OTA. Get a .401 stock firmware from this Placeholder of HTC One Firmwares.

Hello, i'm sorry i don't know what to say because i have almost the same problem, my htc one m7_UL won't start...is shutsdown sometimes at boot time, when i take photos with it...and sometimes what ever else, but in recovery mode it can still houers and houers. yesterday i brought it to s-off then i installed an RUU...but still the same problem !!! is it a material issue ??? thank you.
Within TWRP you should wipe data (not custom) to recreate data, system, and etc. folders. This will also wipe whats on you sdcard so, you'll have to adb push new files to your sdcard to flash a rom.

Try to get back into TWRP, in TWRP flash this stock ROM Method 1. I am guessing that when you say you restore that you are talking about the nandroid backup you got from the site.

Nearly every thread in this section has something to do with not being able to update from kitkat to lollipop on rooted phone.
did you read any of those and try anything before asking for help ?
you make no mention of what phone you have
you need a stock system and stock recovery to take OTA updates have you flash a stock rom before the stock recovery ?

There is many versions of the M7. You need to post the output of "fastboot getvar all" like we ask in every threads here so we can know exactly what phone you have and which sofmtware/firmware version installed, CID and MID number, S-ON or S-OFF.

start by making sure you have the correct stock recovery, look wrong to me, so have a look through the general section for a thread labelled "stock recovery collection" and then download the 6.09.401.11 (your firmware) recovery and flash it, then try and update again.

you must use the 6.09.401.11 stock recovery. Since you have re-locked the bootloader, you'll have to unlock it again, restore the stock rom again and then flash the 6.09.40.11 stock recovery so you can use ota updates. No need to relock the bootloader

Failed to flash cos your bootloader is re-locked.
See @alray post above, you will have to start again, you dont need to lock or re-lock the bootloader for an OTA.
Fingerprint error as per your picture is a firmware issue, and as recovery is the only thing you can change whilst s-on, its a wrong recovery error.
the picture says it expects to find 366813.11 (.11 your firmware) but found something different, so failed.

[Q] hboot 1.44.00 and can't move forward nor backwards

Hi everyone
Been on Cyanogenmod 11-20140424-NIGHTLY-M7 for far too long and wanted to either upgrade Cyanogenmod or, better yet, move to Viper. I'm somewhat skilled with Windows and Linux, but I can't seem getting things to work.
What I've got:
HTC One M7 (unbranded, bought in Switzerland)
Unlocked S-ON
hboot: 1.44.0000
M7-UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
RADIO-4A.14.3250.13
OpenDSP-v26-120-274-0202
CID: HTC_102
It's rooted and got CWM ROM-Manager installed
Notebook with Windows 8.1, USB 3.0 all around
What I've tried so far:
Getting S-OFF
- Did not work. revone throws an ERROR=1 at me when I try to ./revone -P. I've tried like a hundred times, with su and all.
Then I tried to relock and get an RUU on it:
- Relocking did not work. Neither with revone (./revone -l or -r is successful on the CLI, but does nothing, i.e. still says *** UNLOCKED *** in the bootloader), nor with fastboot...
- ... as fastboot does not work, either. Tried different drivers and all, but fastboot always says < waiting for device >. So fastboot oem lock achieved nothing, either.
Then I just tried to install an RUU to get to JB and hboot 1.55 to then continue with rumrunner. This got stuck at some boot-image showing the HTC logo and the .exe cancelled.
Is USB3.0 breaking my neck here or do I have any other options to get to ViperOne?
Thanks in advance...
From what i've read in here many times, hboot 1.44 isn't compatiable with windows 8. 1. You need to use a windows 7 machine.

Windows 8 and hboot 1.44 are not compatible. You should use Windows 7 or better still Linux (preferably ubuntu 32bit)

OK, got my hands on a Linux notebook and managed the relock the bootloader. This led to only being able to boot into Bootloader, Recovery and ROM did always boot into Bootloader.
Then I tried to get a RUU with JB4.3 on the device to be able to run rumrunner on hboot 1.55.

OKAY [ 59.411s}

Worked!
Select recovery from the bootloader menu. While in TWRP recovery. Push the Rom. Type
Code:
adb push rom.zip /sdcard
The command window will appear unresponsive until the push us complete. Do a full wipe and install the Rom. During the install setup choose these options.

This didn't work. While in TWRP, adb was not able to connect. Funnily enough, flashing TWRP*allowed me to boot into CYM again. Activated USB*Debugging and allowed the Host to connect, but still no luck in TWRP.
But since I*had access again I* just copied the Guru image over USB*to the Sdcard, booted back into TWRP*and installed the ROM*manually.
Stock recovery = yes
Stock radio = yes
Root = No
You will now have full stock Rom and recovery. Reboot the device and go to settings>about>Software Updates. Download and install the OTA update. Repeat process untill your on JB 3.xx.401.x firmware.

Then use rumrunner to gain s-off. :good:

Another adventure... In the official instructions it says unlocked OR*rooted, so I*did not bother with rooting.
rumrunner then failed and damaged Recovery leading to not being able to boot into TWRP*and thus being unable to install SuperSu zip.
Had to reflash recovery, install SuperSu and run rumrunner again... Which again failed (becuase the screen was off, I did not see that ADB*Shell requested root).
After a couple of tries now it worked ^_^
Thanks a lot for your explanations.
Now I just have to find out how to get to Firmware 5.0.2 to install the latest ViperOne.
Edit:*When I try to run the OTA*update to 4.19.401.11 it just boots into Recovery

You need stock rom and recovery to install OTA updates. You can just flash the rom again with stock recovery to take further OTAs.
But as your now s-off you can just flash the firmware manually. You don't need to re lock the bootloader again. That's only for s-on users.
You can download the rest of the firmware updates here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=32777
You must flash at least one zip for each firmware version. I.e if your on 3.xx.401.x then you have to flash
4.xx.401.x
5.xx.401.x
6.xx.401.x
7.xx.401.x
Then you can flash twrp and install a lollipop rom. You should have the rom on the internal storage before you start as the device won't boot after flashing the firmware as it will replace the stock boot.img. So you will need to flash a rom before it will boot. :good:
Commands for flashing the firmware zip as follows.
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip "name-of-firmware".zip
fastboot flash zip "name-of-firmware".zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Flash TWRP, Install Rom, Done :good:

I thought I had to adhere to some upgrade path when handling firmwares but if that's not the case I'll be happy to use the latest, thanks!

See my edited post above. You can't just flash the latest firmware. It might work but there's a risk of bricking your phone if you skip firmware versions

Ahh yes. Well, another interesting one going through the firmware updates. Going from 5.xx to 6.xx nearly killed my phone. Screen went black no matter how long I*pressed the power button and connecting through USB*mounted some strange folders on the device.
Luckily found Dexter's thread and his unbricking script solved the problem:

Now ViperOne is updating, yay ^__^
