Hi Guys,
Bought an m7 cheap on ebay. I don't know anything about the history, except to say it's been fiddled with...
It powers up but it won't boot up; it hangs on the HTC logo.
Bootloader's unlocked, it's been rooted... S-ON
(bootloader) version: 0.5

I'm thinking I should try and take it back to stock, but I don't know where I should go from here and I'm worried I might screw it up.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance!
Go to RUU mode and flash an RUU. There's a lot of threads explaining how to go to back to stock on this forum. If it still doesn't work, it might be an internal issue like the motherboard.
Can someone please recommend an RUU to go to... I'm just worried if I use the wrong one it will cause more issues. I thought RUUs were dependent on the CID num and as that's been changed to allow custom roms... I'd be happy taking it back to a plain old vanilla HTC / Google - just something to get it back alive.
Thanks
Should also add I can't get s-off... adb devices doesn't show anything... I'm guessing usb debugging wasn't set up

There is no ruu we can recommend because your version-main is blank the fact that you also have superCID doesn't help identifying which ruu you'll need to use.

You'll have to unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery (twrp preferred), flash a rom and use your phone like that or, if you want, from there you will be able to achieve s-off again and convert your phone to wherever you want (Stock Sense or stock GPE) by flashing a RUU.

Thanks so much for this... I've been learning more all day (traditionally an iOS guy)...
Am I right in thinking I would need to sideload a custom rom through twrp and then install it? If so, I'm having an issue getting my laptop to talk to the phone - "adb devices" is pretty flakey to say the least, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't... I've read various things about Windows 8 and that adb works best on Windows 7, can you please confirm I'm on the right track here. I'd like to put the Viper rom on it.
Thanks again
In order to flash custom recovery you need to be booted to bootloader menu, and use fastboot commands. If you flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 or later, there's no need to sideload a ROM because newer TWRP recoveries have MTP option, so you use that. Try to go to bootloader, connect your phone to your laptop or PC, and issue a command fastboot devices. If it shows your phone, you're good to go
Thanks donkeyking1...
I got it working eventually, I needed to install new drivers for Windows 8 then adb started behaving properly. I ended up pushing the Viper ROM to the phone... The phone's alive now but currently it has no IMEI, baseband or OS - they're all blank. I'm wondering if it's because I've installed Viper 9 without upgrading the firmware first? My next goals are to try and S-OFF the device so I can install a stock rom, at which point hopefully I'll get OTA updates and then go back to Viper 9 - it looks great, I just can't use it! - no phone signal!
Does that sound like the right approach? I'm trying to flash different custom roms to hopefully find one that works with rumrunner. I've read that some folks have managed to S-OFF on hboot 1.57 with rumrunner, but it's picky on the rom that's installed. It doesn't work on Viper 9...
If anyone can add any help it would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance

flash the 7.19.401.2 firmware and then the 7.19.401.2 RUU. If you still have imei problem after that, its most likely an hardware defect.
relock your bootloader if not already locked or re-locked:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Code:
fastboot orm rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip M7_UL_Firmware_7.19.401.2.zip
fastbppt flash zip M7_UL_Firmware_7.19.401.2.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_7.19.401.2_Radio_4T.35.3218.16_10.33Q.1718.01L_release_421790_signed.zip
fastboot reboot
*** use htc_fastboot.exe for flashing the ruu (linked below). Save all files in the same folder where you already have fastboot.exe and adb.exe on your computer.
M7_UL_Firmware_7.19.401.2.zip
PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_7.19.401.2_Radio_4T.35.3218.16_10.33Q.1718.01L_release_421790_signed.zip

Alray, just curious (still learning ), how do you know from the info I've given you that the firmware / RUU you've suggested is one to fix the issues - I've struggled to understand this the past few days - thanks!

To flash a ruu on a s-on phone there are many prerequisites:
The RUU must match your MID: 7.19.401.2 is for PN0710000
The RUU must match your CID: You have superCID so its not a problem.
The RUU must be the same version or an upgrade from your actual version, we don't know your actual version because of your blank versio-main but you have 1.57 hboot which suggest a 6.xx.xxx.x version. So 7.19.401.2 should be an upgrade.
The bootloader must be locked or re-locked.
There is no risk trying it, the worst that can happen is that the phone won't accept the ruu and nothing will be flashed.

Super CID + your MID. WWE firmware should work just fine. Right @alray?

Well, thanks so much for your help guys, but alas it seems the phone is k-put... Flashed the firmware and the rom no problem.... but it still shows no IMEI / IMEI SV / IMSI and it can't recognise the phone number - I'm guessing it can't read the sim. It does show the OS and IMEI in the bootloader, but once booted it's a no go.

Try to bend your sim tray just a little bit. Maybe your sim card is not reaching the contacts inside the phone. Or put a piece of paper under the sim and see what happens
Thanks donkeykong1, I've tried but it's not working... The fact the IMEI / IMEI SV and baseband are unknown though... they're not sim related...
It does show the baseband and IMEI in fastboot getvar all though?...
There were a lot of people with that same issue, and their phones worked fine, so I doubt it has anything to do with your sim. Your sim works in another phone?
Yeah, the sim's fine. @alray said it's likely a hardware issue if the firmware / rom didn't repair the IMEI issue, and the other threads I've looked at with the same issue are all saying the motherboard's faulty.
Although I am baffled as to why it is showing the IMEI / baseband in the bootloader, in fastboot etc. but not once the phone has booted up?...
I read on another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2253514) that maybe flashing a kernal and/or radio might solve it?
Just wondering whether I should try flashing an official HTC rom? I've been in touch with the guy I got it off and he said it was originally on Orange, UK:
http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads > One M7 / v5.0.2 > Find Files : Page 6
One M7 / Orange / UK / CRC / 3.4.10 / v5.0.2 / 539.0 MB / 7.19.61.10
Was also thinking of...
http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads > One M7 / v5.0.2 > Find Files : Page 1
One M7 / HTC / EU / MR 3 / 3.4.10 / v5.0.2 / 486.0 MB / 7.19.401.22
If I did that would I need to update the firmware first like you advised originally @alray?
If I know I can revive the IMEI etc. I'll be happy to go ahead and pay to S-OFF
Thanks in advance
You need a kernel to match your firmware. If you're on 7.19.401.2, then you need 7.19.401.2 kernel. I can give you boot.img, but I don't have the whole zip, with modules. Then again, if your phone boots fine, maybe boot.img will help. I'd [email protected] to confirm my thoughts though. He's much more into this than I am

After installing cyanogenmod onto my htc one EE UK model I tried to return to stock but am unable to find the correct stock files. somehow I have also installed teamwin recovery and cannot use the touchscreen during this mode?
I am able to get back into the bootloader but when I try to start up the phone the cyanogenmod start up screen seems stuck!
Any help to get back to EE UK stock for the htc one or cyanogenmod again would be extremely appreciated.

You can use the volume buttons to move and the power button to select on TWRP (assuming it is not the touch version). Then to fix the problem with CM you should just do a wipe and flash the rom again. To return to stock you have to find your carriers RUU and send that through fastboot/adb, after follow Gizmoe's instructions on this thread to get everything back to stock (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?)t=2592068

There's no "two-minute" fix, so a couple of more questions, if you don't mind:
1- does it matter to you if bootloader says UNLOCKED?
2- does it matter to you if bootloader says TAMPERED?
3- you want to go back to stock, in order to receive OTA updates?
4- do you intend on selling the phone or returning for warranty? (and so you need the phone to look "out of the box")

fair enough, here's a quick fix: just download and install this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_2-24-401-1-zip/
using CWM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173863
or TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173870
the above ROM is for a Europan unbranded version; it's stock, can be rooted or not (selectable in the installer), unselect "stock recovery" in installer as it won't allow OTA's with your current configuration.
I'm gonna check something, and will get back to you when I can, in the meantime the above ROM will get you up and running. (or you can choose any one of the custom ROMs around)
I'll get back to you later
cheers
PS: maybe you could give me a little background info on why you ended up in this situation, eg do you want to be on stock rom (or custom), do you want to be rooted, etc etc. and if not, how come you unlocked your bootloader
If I understand your intentions, I could help better

once I have downloaded the ROM how do I install it?
what are the links for CWM and TWRP for, do I need to download anything from them?
As you can tell I dont fully understand the tech side of this much. I thought to root the phone I could get more custom features however after doing this I did not like it and wanted to return to stock but could not find the correct ROM and so the issues began.

1- the guide is made to return to 100% stock; mostly for people going for warranty or want to sell the phone, and put it "out of the box"
2- the Guru Reset i mentioned will only get your phone working (or any other custom ROM), it will not get any OTA updates etc.
3- in order to restore to stock (in your case), you need S-Off
4- if you do have S-Off, you can even turn your phone into an unbranded European version
5- to get the ROM (Guru Reset or any other custom ROM), you can use one of three methods (using custom recovery CWM or TWRP):
i- OTG cable
ii- adb push <name of rom>.zip /data/media/0/
iii- adb sideload <name of rom>.zip

No. was trying to S-Off but am getting error message which I last posted!
Any suggestions?
I've successfully played with custom roms for years, but I managed to completely corrupt my Sprint HTC One M7 and I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get it back to being a working phone.
It's rooted and unlocked. I think a bad download of a recovery or rom corrupted either the storage or firmware or both.
When I first rooted it, I did have some problems. However, I was able to recover and successfully ran the Revolution ROM for about a month. I wanted to try the Viper ROM and that action (not the ROM itself, of course) put the device into its current bricked state.
I can still flash different recoveries. I can install new ROMs. I've even attempted to flash stock recoveries and run a factory reset to completely reset the phone's partitions. However the phone is unusable. I even have a OTG cable to grab ROMS from a USB stick. TWRP doesn't recognize the internal storage of the phone, but it does recognize the USB stick on the OTG cable. ClockWork can see all of the storage on the phone.
I have tried relocking and running RUUs, but I think I am doing it incorrectly because my phone is still S-ON and if that is the case, you have to find the right version of RUU that is an upgrade rather than a downgrade of the phone. The RUUs always error out. Perhaps someone will be able to provide a correct link as I have screen pictures and Model ID info I can include.
Behavior: As I try to show in the pictures I've attached, I can install customer ROMS or alleged stock ROMS onto the phone. When the process completes, I am presented with the stock lock screen for the M7. When I swipe the screen I am presented with a white HTC screen that is similar to the boot screen, but note there is no other writing. This is not the boot screen. Rather, it is all you get.
If you are tethered to a PC, you can see the storage on your list of drives.
However, after about 90 seconds, the phone auto reboots, and you are in a loop.
The phone is 13 months old, so I don't think I can just relock it and walk into a Sprint store and ask for a replacement.
Moreover, I think this is fixable, I just don't know how quite yet.
Thanks for those pros out there who can help me get out of this mess of my own making.

No harm no foul
Since he/she is s-on they need to run an RUU equal to or newer then their main version

The question is, does such an RUU exist?
If it does not, is there a stock or custom ROM Zip that, while not packaged in an RUU, might work? Although if that were the case, the ROM's I've already tried to use might actually work.
Or, should I attempt to S-Off the phone (something I've never done before) in order to try an RUU to work?
Thanks for your initial answers. Sounds like I don't have enough to move forward quite yet.

This is not an RUU,it's firmware, the the guide I linked to will get you fixed up.
I'm actually surprised you were able to run ARHD for so long without issues, it's most likely the cause of the problems.
Edit: I noticed I did not include the 4.06.651.9 firmware in the rescue guide...it's now added.

I have downloaded two firmwares from your guide. the 4.06.651.9 and the 5.03.651.3
The biggest problem I am currently having is downloading the TWRP recovery without an error. I'm even using download manager on one of my laptops and it sticks at 99%. This is probably how I got into trouble in the first place. I'm attempting 2.7.1.0
Is there a solid version of TWRP earlier that should try and download instead?

I've tried to parse out your directions to make sure I do this correctly. Can you please check to make sure I'm understanding you correctly?
First step is to flash the firmware:
I've downloaded 4.06.651.9 s-on firmware per your suggestion becuase that's the current version of my phone.
Then I need to rename it to just plain firmware.zip
Then on the phone:
Boot to bootloader and lock the bootloader by typing:
fastboot oem lock
in my ADB/Fastboot dos session.
Then use these commands:
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
which will flash the firmware.
Then: If you get this error after the second command (most likely will)
failed 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately
press the UP Arrow on your keyboard and press enter to issue the command again. Essentially, you are flashing the firmware a second time.
Then, unlock the bootloader again
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
Here's the part where I'm a little uncertain. You state:
8a. If you are using the 4.06.651.4 s-on firmware I would suggest you push this Stock Rooted Odexed Rom to your device or it may not boot.
8b. After flashing the 4.06.651.4 rom you will most likely need to flash the latest radio because the 4.06 firmware does not have a radio included find it HERE
Since I am flashing the 4.06.651.9 s-on firmware and not the 4.06.651.4 s-on firmware, do I need to used that suggested Rom? Or can I use any other standard Rom?
Also, earlier in the guide, you state:
If you are already on 4.06.651.4 or 4.06.651.9 you will have to flash the 3.05.651.6 s-off firmware first...reason being is the 4.06 s-off firmware does not have the latest radio included
Do I need to worry about that since I'm flashing the s-on firmware and not the s-off firmware?
Thanks for your help on this. If I were this careful the first time around, maybe I wouldn't have gotten to this point. Luckily, my old Evo4G is in good condition so I've put it into service while I try and fix the HTC One.

I would use this rom just to get you up and running and you can then make a backup of the stock rom.

I will try and do this tomorrow and will let you know it goes.
Interestingly enough, I just saw someone with an HTCONE M7 tonight running Sense 6. I was floored at how different and sleek it looked. I hope that once I have a working phone again, I'll be able to get all the way to Sense 6.
But until then, I have to get this one working.
Thanks.

Ok. So I am reporting back. It's a good news / bad news kind of situation.
I relocked the device.
Flashed the 4.06.651.9_firmware
It took two times exactly as predicted and was successful.
I had a little trouble re-unlocking it again, because I needed to resubmit the device of a new unlock.bin. The process changed the token. I suppose that makes sense.
I then flashed TWRP. On a positive note, TWRP allowed me to mount selections that were previously un-mountable.
However, when I put the unit into ADB Sideload mode and then attempted to adb side load from my PC, adb still did not recognize the device. Fastboot does, but adb doesn't.
However, since I had an OTG cable, I merely used that to have TWRP install the stock ROM you suggested.
It finished. I rebooted.
And it's still un-usable. Boots with the nice Sprint screen. One difference, I get an error about htcdialer freezing. I get the stock lock screen. I unlock to a white HTC screen.
The device shows up in device manager as my HTC but I don't see it as a listed drive anymore.
And the device reboots after about 2 minutes.
So, like I said, some success, but it still isn't usable.
Suggestions?

I did not flash the radio. I may have been confused, but I thought I didn't need to because I was S-On, not S-Off. At this point, it doesn't matter though, so I'll try it.
Do I need to go through the same steps as flashing the firmware?
Relock.
rebootRUU
Or can I just fastboot flash the radio?
Thanks.

Hello everyone. It is my first time on this forum, so please be patient.
On Saturday I received my new HTC One 802d dual sim. Following in the steps of this and other forums I could root it and unlock the bootloader.
Then I wanted to get S-Off for putting on a new ROM but while the Moonshine was running, in one of the many resets, the phone can't start the OS (obviously cmd window showed an error).
From there on I tried a myriad of things but with no success. I could not find the original RUU to flash it either.
I am truly desperate!!!! can anyone help ???

You might want to remove your meid from your first post.
Assuming you have a custom recovery installed, you might try to install Maximus HD for dual sim. I found these instructions in his other thread for the single sim rom. Why don't you think you have a rom installed? Are you stuck in bootloader? You can follow these instructions by alray but you must use a custom recovery for your variant and the Maximus HD rom for your variant.
If you get the rom installed and working, I would try rumrunner S-OFF, since you have a lower hboot. Since you have such a unique phone, I would make nandroid backups to I could recover from issues easier. I hope it helps.

This is a long shot but first I would try to flash the stock firmware 4.22.707.3. You will need to lock your bootloader first. This firmware will wipe your personnal data from the phone.
First, download the firmware file and rename it firmware.zip and place in your adb/fastboot folder.
Second, relock you phone using this command:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Third, use the following procedure to flash the stock firmware to your phone:
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
After that, type:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU [/I][/B]
NOTE: You should see a silver HTC logo come up on your phone after executing this command.
NOTE: if this command freezes, just disconnect the USB cable and hold the power and volume down buttons until the device reboots. Then, repeat the steps above again.
Finally:
Code:
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip[/I][/B]
Repeat the same command: IMPORTANT
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip firmware.zip[/I][/B]
NOTE: The green bar on the phone may not go to 100% of the bar ... but If you see completed on your computer command window, wait for a few seconds and move on.
Last Step:

Thanks is enough for helping you out.
Wifi might be a software issue, with the new firmware you got the latest radio for your phone. If you still have the stock rom installed you could try the OTA update? If the rom is stock and the recovery is stock you could rename (to shorten it) and move the OTA to your sdcard. When it is on your sdcard, follow these steps for installing the OTA manually. It may or may not run, but if it fails it will tell you why it failed and maybe we can fix it.

No, there is no stock rom for your phone! So, you can not go back to stock to get the OTA. Make a nandroid backup while in recovery and save it to your computer should something go amiss in the future. Glad to see you are back up and running.

Hi friend, i'm here again.
I had to reflash my phone with help from llabtoofer.com
We were able to fix the Wifi but the phone does not work on 3G network... only on EDGE.
Could be a problem with the Firmware or with the Radio?
I just called the telephone's company and they said that APN configuration was ok. If you want, I can send you a copy.
I'm in Argentina, Latin America.... perhaps the ROM installed is from Europe or perhaps is not compatible with my M7C_DWG.
Can you help me one more time?
Thanks.... I will waiting.

An earlier post stated that you had MaximusHD 3.0 installed. According to the website it doesn't support your phone! However, your software information has just the stock rom not MaximusHD 3.0. I don't thing there is an RUU for your phone so if you can find someone with a nandroid backup that you could use it would help. If you could get the stock firmware and flash it. Sorry, I'm not much help.

Thaks.
was trying to root my one for the first time. I followed someone's tutorial online, and everything was perfect at first, until I got into using TWRP for recovery. I used version 2.5. After I got into it, the touch screen is not working. I stuck in the lock screen now, not able to unlock, not able to restart, not even able to power off. After some digging, I found out that probably I should have used the version 2.6 instead in the first place. Now my question is, do I need to wait until the power drains out before I could do anything else, or if there is anything I could do to restart the phone and do this recovery process again with TWRP v2.6? Thanks.

Why not giving us your phone info here instead of playing this "look at this youtube video" game? If you want help, please answer the questions asked above, better to post a complete "fastboot getvar all" output (excluding your IMEI/MEID/Serialno) so we know everything about your phone an can help you better.
If you have a sprint HTC one, then flash a sprint twrp recovery. You can find the file on the twrp website.

Sorry, but I'm going to let @alray help with this one. Looks like you have 5.05.651.2 rom installed. Is this a sprint device or some other m7_wls device? I have no experience with these, and see many posts with folks flashing wrong recovery or rom and bricking devices.

I don't think you can install any ruu, yet. I also noticed from your video that your device is s-off (security off) no problem, but also supercid (11111111), this is a problem. I don't think a ruu will flash until the cid is reverted to what ever it was initially from the installed ruu carrier. Sprint cid is SPCS_001 for example. I think you will have to rewrite this from adb, but getting out of my knowledge zone here, sorry.

You can flash a RUU with supercid, no problem. But since his phone is a sprint variant, having supercid is somewhat useless since he can only flash RUU for sprint (SPCS_001). Having supercid on a sprint M7 won't hurt but its pretty useless imo... (unlike having supercid on a M7_U/M7_UL which will allow you to flash any RUU you want)

Sprint M7 is a CDMA phone and will only work on the Sprint network (it can connect to other gsm networks for roaming but you won't get full connectivity), its not the result of the RUU. And btw a RUU can't sim lock a phone, its not possible. The ruu doesn't write anything to the partition where the sim lock info are stored.
can't help any further if you don't post the output of "fastboot getvar all" like asked previously. I don't have time right now to watch some youtube video to figure out what device you have etc.

Before that, it worked. The phone was like out of the store without being tied to an operator. Due to the fact that I could not be updated to Android 5.0, I downloaded the firmware from the official site and set it. With the new firmware the connection was lost. Now I can not use 3G. From the beginning, radio was 1.00 and android 4.4.2. The other parameters are listed in the video at minute 2:05
I tried to install a new version via exe files and zip through. Even I tried to put ViperOne, but once it is installed, an error, TWRP and firmware is deleted. I again through fastboot TWRP load and backup. Otherwise, when you turn on it immediately goes into fastboot, and so on. Something is missing this phone for the proper installation of new versions of android.
Hello everyone
First of all sorry for my english. I'm not a native english so please forgive me if I say something wrong. Second - this is my first thread here (since now, reading informations from here was enough to handle all of my problems but at this moment well... I surrender and need some advice) so please be understanding.
I have a problem with HTC M7. My friend gave it to me for a little hardware fix and software update. I fixed the hardware but I'm stuck on firmware update.
I wanted to update firmware to 5.05.651.2 with automatic updates but it crashes somewhere in the middle with red triangle sign.
So I started to read. First I've read that I need to unlock bootloader, so I made it with fastboot - nothing changed. Later found some info that I need a stock firmware to enable updates. So I downloaded some firmware but failed to install it (tried with fastboot). Next info I found that to install stock firmware I need to root the device. So I've rooted it. Still nothing. Trying to flash in "rebootRUU" mode with fastboot gave me info that no "android-info.txt" was found. Some more reading and searching and I've noticed that my HTC is probably Sprint version (to be honest I do not know what is the difference). So I downloaded some Sprint firmware. Still no effect... Ehh I'm depressed and I'm begging for help:crying:
So at this moment I have:
Android ver. 4.4.2
HTC Sense ver. 6.0
Software ver. 5.03.651.3
Kernel ver. 3.4.10-gf22c859

Maybe it's important - friend told me that phone is from Shanghai (I don't know where does he have that info from).
If any additional information is needed please write and I will post it asap.
What I would like to achieve? I would like to install latest available stock firmware (without any changes, cool apps or any additional software). Just an basic android with Google store available. My friend is not advanced android user. He just want latest software.
I would probably fight with this device more but also a big problem are dead links all over the forums (htc1guru etc). I'm counting that maybe some of you here have backups of roms. Or maybe I just don't know how to find a proper one.
Full step-by-step manual what should I do would be great but of course I appreciate any other suggestions or advice. Just need some help.
(one more thing - for those who want to write "use search, there are a lot of manuals on the web, we won't make it for you etc" please, I spent couple of hours searching and reading and I don't understand or I don't know how to use info's I found. I'm not an Android user for last couple of years)

I wanted to update firmware to 5.05.651.2 with automatic updates but it crashes somewhere in the middle with red triangle sign. Indicating that your software partition isn't 100% stock. The ota update will only replace the required files to be updated, not the whole system. Before updating, the updater-script check integrity of all files to be updated. If only one of these file isn't as expected, the updater-script will abort and the update will not install ----> red triangle
So I started to read. First I've read that I need to unlock bootloader bootloader lock/unlock status isn't related to ota update, so I made it with fastboot - nothing changed. Later found some info that I need a stock firmware to enable updates. So I downloaded some firmware but failed to install it (tried with fastboot). Next info I found that to install stock firmware I need to root the device You don't need root to install firmware. So I've rooted it. Still nothing. Trying to flash in "rebootRUU" mode with fastboot gave me info that no "android-info.txt" was found indicating that you are not using the correct file.

download these 3 files and save it in the folder where you already have fastboot.exe and adb.exe on your computer.

First update your firmware:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip 6.23.651.10_full_firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip 6.23.651.10_full_firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You need to do the "fastboot flash zip" command twice. First time you'll get the "remote: 90 hboot pre-update! Please flush image again immediately" error. Second time the firmware will flash completely and should see a "OK/ flash sucessful" message. You can disregard the progress bar on the phone screen, it might not indicate 100% but if fastboot tell you "OK/ flash sucessful" it's alright
Then you can confirm everything is alright with
Code:
fastboot getvar all
your version-main should now be 6.23.651.10 and your hboot 1.61 instead of 1.44
Now you can flash the RUU, similar process but you must use the fastboot version linked above (htc_fastboot.exe):
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip PN071IMG_M7WLS_L50_SENSE60_SPRINT_6.23.651.10_signed.zip
fastboot reboot
Your phone might reboot by itself once, just wait until fastboot reports "OK". Again you can disregard the progress bar on your phone.
Make sure the phone is fully charged before doing all that and if something goes wrong post here and wait (do not skip any steps).
If everything went ok, the phone should reboot to the latest stock android version and the old twrp version replaced with the stock recovery. If the phone was sim-unlocked it might be relocked to Sprint again and you'll have to sim-unlock again (you can find the procedure in the "Sprint htc one" forum section, in the "general" sub-section.
My friend Thank You very much for all the instructions... but...
Last step:
Now you can flash the RUU, similar process but you must use the fastboot version linked above (htc_fastboot.exe):
Code:

I rebooted with "fastboot reboot" . Startup screen show up and now there is a black screen with dimmed backlight. Power button doesn't do anything. Any of commands in fasboot also don't work. Ahh...
One more thing. I haven't noticed that you changed command from fastboot to htc_fastboot so I changed htc_fastboot file name to just fastboot and used command fastboot. Don't know if it matters...

Rebooting after a failed/incomplete flash can hard brick your phone. If you can't get fastboot connectivity again, there is not much you can do. Sorry
Ahhh. My bad;( I didn't want to leave everything turned on for so many hours. Well nevermind.
What do you think if I open up the phone nad reset it manually by unplugging the battery? Is there a chance to boot it to bootloader? Like I mentioned te start screen appeared so it looks like the phone hangs later. Am I thinking right?

maybe or let the battery drain then plug the phone again and try to boot in bootloader with vol down and power.

Unplugged battery directly on mainboard and connected again rebooted the phone. So... whats next? I promise I won't do anything more without a consult

So I checked and the phone probably has a sim-lock. It shows notification that the simcard is wrong (translated from polish so in english it may be in some other words). I checked the subforum like you said in first reply and I found threads: [GUIDE] [fixed] SIM UNLOCK after lollipop and [GUIDE] Sprint sim unlock & Flash. I don't want to mess up anything (again) so could you please tell me which one is right for me?

So it looks like I'm stupid.
I tried to unlock the phone. Again bootloader unlocked, phone rooted. I wanted to unlock it with terminal commands using HtcOMADM_SPCS but I cannot install it. I've installed twrp (this time version 3.1.1.0) but it keeps saying that footer is wrong and signature verification failed...
Any more help, please? ;(
Hey sorry, don't mean to hijack this thread.
But would the same instructions apply for updating any older HTC m7 as far as the firmware and RUU is concerned?
I'm getting crickets on my thread, and just needed a general confirmation on the process again since it's been awhile.
I'm looking to flash a more current ROM and newer twrp recovery(or whatever is the best out there now).
Just confirming the process you described would still work the same way.
Thanks!

Don't forget that only Sprint roms and Sprint recovery will work on your phone (roms or recovery for the gsm/m7ul won't work). Make sure the custom rom you want to flash is compatible with the Sprint variant (it will be mentioned in the OP of the rom thread if it's compatible with Sprint/M7_WLS). Flash the Sprint TWRP version:
twrp-3.1.1-0-m7wls.img not twrp-3.1.1-0-m7.img

Hey again. Alray can I ask you for a little bit more help? I've tried every way to sim unlock i found but without any success. Last method I used was from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6hHUae1TMs but when I want to run Unlock helper it crashes. Have no idea what am I doing wrong...;(

Since yours is also a Sprint HTC One, yes the same procedure should work.

Hey so looks like I'm running into an issue when updating my firmware.
I'm getting this:
"Target didn't report max-download-size"
sending 'zip' (45578 KB)...
OKAY [2.807s]
writing 'zip' . . .
(bootloader) zip header checking . . .
(bootloader) zip info parsing . . .
FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail)
finished. total tim: 3.067s
I've tried a few different versions of firmware and no luck.
I can just fastboot reboot bootloader and then reboot after that and I'm back to my normal stuff with no issues.
Also flashed twrp recovery without any issues.
Rom is still working, everything is still normal....
Thoughts?
Also wanted to add that I was able to update TWRP to 3.1 and flash ICE ROM 7.1.1 and gapps without any issues. So far running semi-stable.
Tried updating firmware with s-on after i re-locked my bootloader, but that did not work either. I was still getting some weird error so I unlocked my bootloader again and then was able to flash the nougat rom just fine. It's strange that it's working with such an older version of the firmware... oh well.
Will still hold out for any suggestions. I'm sure I will run into some issues soon with the firmware being that out-of-date. Signal issues, battery issues, etc.
