post your fastboot getvar all please without imei and serial number please, baseband isn't much good.
also to return to full stock for warranty purposes, like remove the tampered flag and unlocked status requires s-off.
Well, I did a bit more research & found a stock ROM on 5.0.2 Lollipop; installed it & it boots

ok so your on WWE, a quick google search of your baseband can up with T-Mobile, O2, Vodaphone and WWE, that's how useless baseband on its own is.

Hi, wanted to write yesterday but I forgot (was playing games). My phone got accepted to warranty repair even though it had an unlocked bootloader So now I need to wait few days for it, to come back repaired to me

Hi People,
Since there is the impossibility to go S-OFF with hboot 1.54.0000 can someone guide me on how can I revert back to stock my ONE ?
I went through the process of unlocking bootloader @ htcdev and then root, flash TWRP and until the moment the only thing I could do is flash some custom roms, but even that does not bring my phone up to date because the OS never changes, as you all can see in the screen attached.
What I would like to do now is get back to stock so I could receive OTA updates from my carrier.
Thanks in advance.

of course you can go back to stock with s-on and you'll most probably keep your warranty. read first before you answer please...
here is a guide with several options: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618
just go back to stock as much as possible for you and you're fine. flash stock rom, stock recovery and relock bootloader ("fastboot oem lock"). :good:

no, to remove tampered flag you'd need s-off, but this should not matter even in case of warranty.
with everything reverted back to stock you'll be able to recieve official OTA updates from your region again

Seems like your phone is rooted do you don't receive any official updates. You can boot in boatloader and see if your phone is unlocked, shutdown your phone and start your phone by holding power and volume down button at the same time. See what it says there, probably "unlocked" and s-on or s-off. After that chose recovery and see which recovery you have.
Go to settings - About Phone - Software Info and post what it says.
The device you bought was not new. It was unlocked and had or has a custom recovery installed.

If I have stock ROM (restored from nandroid) and reflashed stock recovery, I won't get OTA updates if my phone is rooted?

It looks like it is a development model (not DEV edition), which should not be sold anyways.
You can root and flash custom ROM, but I highly doubt that you will receive updates for a development model.

Well since your bootloader is already unlocked and you got the custom recovery, you can always flash the latest custom rom that has Android 4.2 or 4.3. Otherwise you can bring the phone back to stock if possible. They're how to guides on how to do that on XDA.

Well your bootloader is still 1.44, so you still have the option to get S-Off, which would allow you to remove TAMPERED, and also allow you to return completely back to stock using a RUU.
How familiar are you with all this? I would recommend reading some of the guides, but if you do want to get back completely to stock you'll probably need to S-Off.
Can you post "fastboot getvar all" (and remove your IMEI and serial number before posting).
No updates
thanks nkk and farang..
yes i have done few time changing stock and versions on my previous htc but please tell me after all this will it be like a regular phone and can get all updates and in future i dont need to change ( in short i wont be sticking to same rom )

Factory reset will just reset your current Rom. So you have two options, 1 flash an other rom, which is already 4.3 and learn what a custom Rom can do for you, welcome to xda or 2, you can revert to stock version by flashing the right RUU for your version, but you need s-off to do this. You should do this now your bootloader is still 1.44. Anyway whatever you gonna do, you will have some homework to do!

First you need to install the HTC drivers (http://d-h.st/4LL), and adb/fastboot sdk (http://d-h.st/ja1) credits to @vomer; please read through the first part of his guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365506
Once you've installed HTC drivers, and unzipped adb sdk to C:\ADB, reboot your phone into bootloader -> FASTBOOT, connect your phone to the PC, FASTBOOT will change to say FASTBOOT USB.
On your PC: "CD C:\ADB" then type "fastboot getvar all" and post results back (remember to remove IMEI and serial number)
help me to get updates
hello guys.. thank you all for your help//
somehow manage to get these details about fastboot. . i am adding the picture.. i dont understand much but i have intuition that it might be asia ruu. please help me find one.. but one thing please if i go back to original stock then will i face the sim lock problem ( as i bought it in dubai and if the phone is from another country and by some other carrier on which only their sim works)? and main concern that if i will get all the regular updates launched by htc,

OK, that tells us you have a Vodaphone UK version, not Asia, not a problem.
Since you're still on 1.44 hboot, I would recommend to get S-Off, as you will not be able to do that later. Continue followoing vomer's guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2365506 and the original revone thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582
Do the S-Off, no need to SuperCID at this time.
Why S-Off you ask, it would allow you to run any RUU (upgrade & downgrade) for any country and/or carrier.
Regarding SIM Lock, is your phone tied to any specific carrier at the moment? I assume not, since I dont think you're on Vodaphone UK, so the phone is/should arleady by SIM-unlocked.
Continue and report back, so we proceed with the next steps.

Yes, I had the same issue.
In TWRP, wipe all the partitions except the internal storage. Then flash the rom and choose wipe in Aroma.
Im sure you wouldn't have manually wiped the partitions. The Aroma for some reason doesn't do the job. Manually wipe it and the ROM will install properly

I'm having this same problem. I've wiped it several times and reloaded 2 different RUU's and Android Revolution. With Android Revolution I've stopped it from randomly restarting but I still get the process error and it doesn't show a Baseband or IMEI. When I used the getvar in cmd it shows my IMEI and everything looks good.. not sure if its a hardware problem or what. Any ideas and if I have to send it back can anyone direct me to a US T-Mobile stock RUU? I'm still new to this... just switched over from a Galaxy.

I haven't tried to upgrade firmware using Htc sync manager and i dont know if it's going to work tbh,but i think that they send me an unlocked device and not really an 'new one'.I have never seen something like that before on other smartphones running pure stock,only with custom roms.
The first Htc one that i bought there was running 4.4.2 out of the box,but this one with 4.2.2 with no chance to update forward Kitkat:nuts:.

Ive never seen it either except on custom rom's, did you send it to a HTC service centre or your network provider ? I would expect HTC to update your software for you, the software you have on there is very old now, post your fastboot getvar all without imei and serial number please, then we can see if its s-off, if it is then you can update to any RUU you like without unlocking.

ahh, the shop is a different story, probably jusy old stock, but doesnt explain the missing software update setting, that is very strange, when they gave you the replacement phone, was the box factory sealed still, I would check its not running something custom, that someone previous has messed with a returned to them, they may of had it fixed in-house and just stuck it back on the shelf.
I need to return my phone to stock (S-ON, CID: GLOBA001) and i cant seem to be able to find the appropriate files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yea I want to send my phone in under warranty due to a problem with the wifi where it doesnt work and just gets stuck on ON. From what ive read everyone who had this problem ended up sending in their phone and just got a replacement. I originally had this problem while I was in stock so I tried out a custom ROM to see if that would fix the problem.
After putting a custom ROM didnt fix the problem, to try get back to stock I used a guru reset file. The CID from the reset file didnt match my phone but I gave it a shot. So now my phone has stock rom with android 4.3. Then I wanted to get an OTA so everything else would go to stock like kernel (Im fairly new to rooting and stuff so that's what I understood would happen). But my phone wont accept an OTA, after downloading for a bit it basically says that some modifications have been made to the software so it cant get the OTA.
I cant get my getvarall until later when I get home but from the about menu in the phone it says that the softwarenumber is 3.22.661.1 (is that firmware version?). ill post my getvarall when I get home.
If there's a way that you know I can get back to stock, that would be awesome. Thanks alot for your help.

3.22.661.1 is telus ROM. I need to know what is your firmware version (from the bootloader or from the getvar all) so we can check if there is anything available to restore your phone (most likely a Nandroid backup). Both your software version and firmware version must be the same.
For warranty to be valid. your phone must be 100% stock which mean stock rom and firmware, no tampered flag in the bootloader. bootloader status must be "locked" (not re-locked or unlocked). Removing the tampered flag and resetting the bootloader to "locked" require s-off. There is nothing available for WIND (no RUU, no nandroid backup (to confirm with your firmware version)). So flashing a custom rom before checking for these files was not a good idea. When the phone is under warranty, you should always send it for repair because troubleshooting it by flashing custom roms (and unlocking the bootloader) void the warranty, unless you can return your phone to 100% stock (files needed and s-off needed).
But sometime, ppl are lucky and HTC will repair the phone even if its not stock. If they think the custom software might have caused the wifi problem, then they will charge you for the repair. If its an hardware defect, then you might get it repaired at no cost, at HTC discretion.
For ota update, you can't use them atm because the software version (TELUS) doesn't match your firmware version and CID (WIND)
Btw, is your wifi problem only on lollipop? I had some problem too and it was caused by the power saver mode. Disabling it (or at least the wifi power saver option) solved my issue. Just in case...

The problem started when I had stock kitkat and persisted when I tried a custom rom based off lollipop (MaximusHD) and jelly bean which I currently have from the telus gurureset file. Yea I messed up by rooting and flashing custom rom in hopes of fixing the problem. Now I just want to get back to stock with relocked bootloader and hope it gets through warranty.
Ill post getvarall later today when I get home. btw there are a couple things I should black out before posting that right? Could you tell me which ones?
Thanks
