Hello,
Currently I am running a converted GPE M7 and wanted to revert to stock ROM. But right after I changed my CiD from GOOGL001 to 11111111 the phone stopped getting recognized in fastboot mode (it gets recognized when booted normally). Can anyone help me solve this issue?
I have tried numerous guides on how to solve this, no luck. Tried reinstalling drivers, HTC sync drivers (removed sync), manually, nothing, phone shows a yellow exclamation mark in device manager. Using a USB2 port btw.
I am running win8.1 x64. Before it worked flawlessly. Now nothing... So can anyone help me with solving this and getting back stck ROM?
Phone is s-off, unlocked, rooted btw
Thanks all

hboot 1.44 isn't compatible with windows 8.1 hence why fastboot doesn't work but everything else is fine (detected when booted but not detected when in bootloader)
Use win 7 or try this walkaround

You can use Ubuntu on your computer without installing it, go to ubuntu website, download the iso and burn it on a disc. Boot your computer from the disc, select "try ubuntu". Once booted in ubuntu install android tools and flash your ruu.zip.

@alray - I was trying it in ubuntu (14.04 version), but couldnt get very far... I couldnt install adb and fastboot
In the terminal I used these commands one by one:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
And after the last one it said - unable to locate package android-tools-adb etc.
After that, I am lost...
EDIT: I also tried Ubuntu 12.04 but there was no option to "Try without installing"
@alray - Ignore my previous post, I FINALLY made it work. The problem with the 12.04 version was, that I downloaded the wrong one, I downloaded the "alternate" version, not the "desktop" version, now it is working flawlessly and ADB+Fastboot are running, phone is detected in fastboot, so today I will be flashing back to stock
Many Thanks for your help and guidance

Don't forget that since you are using Ubuntu, you will have to use an older ruu.zip because newer ruu (7.xx.xxx.x) will only flash using htc_fastboot.exe which is Windows only. No problem flashing older RUU using the standard fastboot from ubuntu e.g. 1.28.401.7 or 4.19.401.9

Hi guys
I think Ive messed up my phone pretty bad.
It loads up fine everything works, but camera and wifi just refuse to function.
it boots into bootloader and either CWMR or TWRP
BUT I canot drag n drop any files from pc to storage, or download anything from phone to it's internal storage.
When connected to PC i can see /storage/emulated/legacy.
Im on software 1.29.401.12
As far as I'm aware, there isn't a RUU available yet.
Ive tried using rev one/moonshine to get s off and change cid but no luck.
Please help me get this back to a 100% working state.
Thanks.

This is all stuff you should know before delving into the world of rooting a phone. There is a guide to sideload if you search, I don't have the link to hand...
I tried to update to 4.4, but it gave me a blue screen. I can get into TWRP and Fastboot works.
However, it won't read it as USB on my Windows 8.1, but it sees it on my Windows 7 and OSX. I'm trying everything to get some from of OS running on my HTC One.
Please help me. I'm new to this and I'm scared out of my mind!
If you are soff then connect the phone in fastboot mode and run the google edition ruu.
If not Soff, then post your fastboot getvar all output

If you have S-off then either run ruu or do fastboot flash ruu.zip.. Look up nik71 guide how to do that.

I have had TWRP with no issues
I have the Bigxie ROM installed.
When I try and get S-OFF and try moonshine, I can not find a version to match my HTC One
My phone was bought from Wind Mobile, and ROM IS is GLOBA001
Is there anyone who can assist us who are stuck in this way?
Thank you!

x.xx.709.x is in your list it should work
My recommendation is to install rumrunner using 32 bit ubuntu. Not 64. No worries about drivers.. you don't have to install ubuntu, just put it on a disk or usb, boot into it and select try instead of install. After days of tryng different methods, computers and versions of windows, ubuntu worked the first time . Rumrunner has a version for ubuntu and instructions on their site
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
can we post outside links? >.> i hope we can here try this http://rumrunner.us/downloads-2/

For sure? if it wont , the phone can brick or something?
im on 3.63 and i was able to S-OFF my phone.
So..
I tried to do that and its says after the dots:
ERROR: run rumrunner again and READ (no adb connection to device. Debugging on
Drivers?)
Press ENTER to exit
Drivers installed.
There is ADB Connection.
Debugging on.
1) are you on windows or linux
2) if your on windows make sure you reboot to fastboot first and connect cable so it can install the second driver
3) also watch the phone when its running at one point you have to allow the computer to connect in a higher mode or it will fail and still might but after you allow/accept this mode it should be good to go
I was able to set S-OFF on my ATT HTC One. I would suggest to make sure the drivers you have is the latest.
1. Android SDK - http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
2. Search the xda forums for latest compatible driver for your PC. Here's a thread with a collection of windows drivers - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2089508
3. Make sure to see your phone appear in Device Manager when connected (if using Windows OS).
4. You can also use the following command after the Android SDK "platform-tools" is installed & phone connected: adb devices
Hope this help.
Can i convert my Htc one with Vodafone Cid to Stock and receive ota updates?

Both cid # and mid # MUST match the main-ver you want to flash. CID and MID require s-off to be modified.
i.e if you have a x.xx.161.x main-ver, you need corresponding MID PN0710000 and one of compatible CID like VODAP001 or VODAP102, etc... (Vodafone)
i.e if you have a x.xx.401.x main-ver, you need corresponding MID PN0710000 and one of compatible CID like HTC__001 or HTC__101, HTC__203 etc... (stock international)
If you have a CID that doesn't match your main-ver, your phone will not find any OTA update
If you have proper CID but wrong MID, your phone will find and download OTA, but will fail the update process.
f you want to convert using a RUU, both CID and MID must match otherwise the ruu will not flash.
copy/paste the output of this command
Code:
fastboot getvar all
minus emei and sn and it will be much easier to tell you what options you have.

So go to this thread and install adb/fastboot.
turn on usb debugging mode on your phone ''settings ---> developer option ---> check the usb debug box'' if developer option menu is messing from you settings menu do this: settings ---> about phone ---> tap the build number rapidly until you are prompted you unlocked developers option.
connect phone to pc via usb while phone is normally booted in Android (better to use port behind the pc instead of usb port in front. also i will recommend you not to use a windows 8.1 computer.

You'll probably encounter problem later in the process with win 8.1. Win 8.1 require hboot 1.55 for fastboot to work. During the process you will need to downgrade hboot to 1.44 to flash the international RUU. And your phone will not be recognized by computer when using fastboot and you will be stuck there. So better to find a windows 7 computer or maybe you could dual boot win 7 on the same comp.
now you should be able to continue with next step even with win 8.1
so start Minimal ADB and Fastboot, a command prompt should open. with phone connected to pc and usb debugging enabled, check that drivers are working properly with this command:
Code:
adb devices
should output this:

List of devices attached

Hi All,
I tried to delete my personal data from the HTC One as I was planning on selling it tomorrow. I went into TWRP and wiped everything...which meant I wiped the OS too
I've tried everything, but I cannot find a way to reinstall a ROM.
First, I'm on a Windows 7 laptop. Soon, I'll have to switch to a Mac computer at work.
ADB doesn't work at all because I can't get the driver installed so the phone isn't recognized in ADB. I've installed the drivers from Hasoon2000's AIO kit, as well as install HTC Sync Manager. Neither one helps...so for now ADB is out.
Windows RUU.exe installation files don't work either. I've downloaded all versions from HTCDevs.com, and get an ERROR 155 each time.
Fastboot itself works, but I can't flash a ROM. If I try, I get "remote:not allowed". I'm in RUU mode (fastboot oem rebootRUU) for the RUU.zip files. I've also tried flashing a CWM ROM, but I get the same error.
I just want to sell this phone and get on with my life, but I can't find a way to get it working again. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Also, I have the Developer Edition, which is unlocked but S-On I believe.

1- Even though the Dev Edition is unlocked, when you want to run an RUU, you have to relock it (when S-On), otherwise you'll get error 155
2- post a "fastboot getvar all" (excluding IMEI, and s/n)
3- when you say rom.zip in RUU mode, are you using a decrypted zip, or the original signed (encrypted) zip? (because with s-on, only the signed one will work)

Yeah, last time that was the solution (re-locking). This time, even after relocking, I still get the Error 155 (and it does show "RELOCKED" in the boot loader)
Getvar screenshot is attached.
The rom.zip was from HTCDev.com, so I'm guessing it is an original signed zip. It was just renamed to be more user friendly.
EDIT: I'm not sure if this helps, but I was able to get ADB working on my Mac at work. I tried sideloading the official ROM and also a CWM ROM. It copies over fine, but then there are errors when trying to install. It says it can't mount various things. I've attached a pic of that as well.

I can never find anything on HTCdev
Anyway, the .zip you got is probably a kernel source code, not an RUU, I don't think HTC release ruu.zips (as far as i know).
How are you running the EXE, cause looks like your on a Mac, (so you may be using a vm, and maybe that's the problem)?
Long story short, here's what I would do, remember you need an RUU.EXE version 4.19.1540.4 or higher, then run the RUU, once it opens up, it will have created a folder in %Temp% (eg on Win7, that would be usually C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp) there you will find a newly created folder (use sort by date modified to find it) within that folder you will find rom.zip (a 1GB+ file) which is the signed ruu.zip.
copy that to your fastboot folder, then you can exit the RUU.EXE which will delete the temporary folder i mentioned above
then on your mac:
./fastboot oem rebootRUU
./fastboot flash zip rom.zip
./fastboot flash zip rom.zip <- yes twice
./fastboot reboot-bootloader
if you want to see what kind of output to expect, to my guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082 and check post #7, it has a real life example of the above commands.

Thank you so much for the walkthrough! It could be that I have the kernel source code...I've attached a screenshot of what I downloaded (link is circled). One thing though - where do I get the RUU.exe that's 4.19.1540.4 or higher? The highest I see is 3.22.1540.1 on HTC Dev for the Developer Edition. There is a 100MB file that's 4.20.1136.8 (see screenshot) for the WWE region, just says "HTC One" without more detail. Should I use that, even though it's only 100MB?
I was running the RUU on a Windows laptop at home, but then switched to my Mac at work. I can boot into Windows 8.1 on the Mac as well, so I can do the RUU extraction portion there (assuming Win 8.1 isn't an issue).
I'll report back once I've tried these steps.
EDIT: I've found this RUU - will it work?

the first picture could very well be a ruu.zip due to the filesize, all the (at least HTC Sense editions) will be 1GB+ the other ones that are around 100MB are just kernel source codes,
but you can't use the 3.22 version cause that's a downgrade and only possible with S-Off.
just found one at http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=M7 version 4.19.1540.9
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...8_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353887_signed_3.exe
this should work fine on even on Win 8.1 (without the need to extract it)
this will only work with a locked/relocked bootloader if you're sticking with S-On.

Thanks! I edited my previous post with a link to one that I found. Is it the same one? It has the exact same file name as what you just posted. I'm 50% done downloading it, and would rather not start again lol.

HTCGuru site is good too.
Good luck
It worked! I verified that fastboot was working and that the drivers were installed, relocked the bootloader, then ran the RUU.exe - and it finished without issue. I then unlocked the bootloader, and it doesn't say Tampered anymore
I can't thank you enough for the help. I wouldn't have guessed that you can't downgrade without being on S-OFF.
