Going back to stock Firmware from CM 12 - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Hi
I have an HTC One M8 on CM 12. I wanted to go back to full stock but I am scared of doing this lol.
I am S-On and have an Unlocked bootloader
So to Flash a RUU I have to Lock it again?
Is that even possible at this point?

Yes re-lock your bootloader and run the RUU.

Hi Sloth and thanks for responding,
I read that the Firmware I flash has to be newer or the same as what the phone is currently running. Is that true?
Also do I have to put the HTC recovery first or does that happen when I flash the firmware?

Yes I have noticed the hboot has to match the hboot for the RUU you are trying to flash for the last few updates.
If you choose the latest Full Firmware (Stagefright patch included) then run the latest RUU you should be golden.
The Full firmware will install stock recovery.

I downloaded the lasted firmware from HTC's website. 4.25.651.18
Is this a full firmware? Or are you talking about something else? Not sure what stagefright is.
I will try the FUU method that I found in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
BTW my hboot is 3.19.0.0000

You probably downloaded the RUU from the HTC site.
The firmware is in the link you posted.
I'm not sure what the latest hboot is lol.
Edit:
My hboot is 3.19 and I'm 1 firmware update behind I doubt the latest changed the hboot.

That is the correct size for the firmware.
The RUU is 1.5GB...you might be ok running the RUU without updating your firmware, give it a shot.

Was the goal to update the firmware and then the RUU?
I didnt even know the difference. I need the full OS I am pretty sure to put sense back etc.

If your hboot was outdated you would most likely need to update the firmware so they matched.
Your hboot is already the latest so you should be good to go with just running the latest RUU.

OK so I'm just going to use the thread to install the Rom. Any tips?
Thanks so far btw

Correct the 1.5GB file you downloaded from the HTC site.
Just make sure you re-lock your bootloader before starting the RUU.

So Relock with this command fastboot oem lock
So do I put the phone into fastboot mode first?
Also this file I downloaded is the actual program huh.
I will have to get adb working again. Time to download the whole Android studio again! UH

Yes boot to bootloader and select fastboot...when you plug in it will say fastbootusb in red.
Open a cmd window and type fastboot devices...if you get your serial number back as a reply you are good to issue the fastboot oem lock command, if you serial # does not show then your drivers are not installed properly.
The file is an exe/executable file right click and run as admin and it will start, read all the warnings and check the boxes and it will do it's thing.
ADB does not work in fastboot mode only recovery or OS.

It does actually work, just seems very sensitive to OS, USB ports, drivers, (possibly even locale), etc.
Recommend you use a plain vanilla Win7 PC with USB2 port.

I had this exact problem trying to go back from 5.11.401.10. When i extracted the rom.zip, fastboot came back with remote: 02 data length is too large.
I had already unlocked with HTCDev, flashed TWRP and s-off. i just wanted a stock ruu to go back to sense 5.5. In the end, i found TeHashX has created a twrp flash here: Link I flashed that without root, with radio and recovery and I'm back to stock. You'll probably need to be s-off for this but I'm not sure. I kept s-off and the unlocked bootloader.
Ps. You can remove the tampered with a rooted rom in the process.

I have also been unable to use any of the 4.xx RUU... They worked once but none of them work now. Anyway I just wanted to say I also created a Guru Reset for the 5.21.502.2 (AT&T) here >> http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358545274 to go along with the files posted by @TeHashX
The only thing i can think of was the hboot prevents it now but i wasnt going to play with that. I personally went to 4.xx to get away from sense 6
Is there any other maybe older stock ROM i can try ?
I tried 1.29.401.x and that failed too. There was a note with the download saying you need to flash hboot 1.44 which i didn't bother with.

AT&T M7 Failled During RUU.exe

Hey guys,
Long story short, I needed to return my m7 back to stock for warranty purposed. I've done this in the past so I know what I am doing. I flashed the RUU (RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_Cingular_US_4.18.502.7_R10_Radio_4T.24.3218.09_10.26.1718.01L_release_356565_signed_2) and my phone got stuck at the last part of the RUU install and now I have a black screen with 4 exclamation points and the HTC logo. the bootloader is locked, as it should be for flashing a RUU. I can see the phone in fastboot mode, but thats about it. EVERY RUU I have tried flashing wont work and they keep throwing errors.
Any suggestions?

Are you sure that you have the correct RUU for your firmware version? You said you've tried a few different RUUs. This makes me wonder if you are using the correct RUU for your firmware version. This is key: You must use the correct RUU for your firmware.
If your phone is still bootable, boot it up and go into settings>about>software information and look at the software version number. Your RUU must be made specifically for that version number.
Here's a link to some a collection of RUUs (Cingular/ATT) RUUs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428276
If it's not located there, search around a bit on XDA. It's bound to be here.

I had S-off'd this exact phone before and relocked the bootloader using the RUU that I posted. I believe the issue lays in the update process for the RUU. I am working through a few of these pieces of advice tonight and will report back.

XDA solves my problem, yet again!!!
So what I did was, flash the firmware that clsA instructed me too. That went well and I had a fully loaded bootloader menu. Then I flashed a RUU.zip file which was a JB file and it worked! I can send my device back. You guys seriously are awesome.

Trying to go back to stock. Failing...

Hello everyone,
I've been trying to get back to stock on my Sprint HTC One. I have tried using the RUU in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2795856 and no luck. I am HBoot 1.55, S-ON, and running a stock rooted rom that is on 4.4.2
So here is what I tried. I relock my bootloader and proceed to run the RUU, but 2 times I get stuck on 4% so I have no luck. I tried getting S-Off and maybe that could help me bring back to stock, but that did not work either. Really need to get this phone back to Stock, any help is appreciate it, no one responded in that thread so I'm asking here. Thanks in advance.
You'll need to flash the Full Firmware first.
If it still gets stuck try a different USB Port...USB 2 work best or try a different PC.

Use This Firmware
You will need to re-lock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock)
Flash firmware (follow the video)
Run the RUU and you will be back to stock.
You do not need to be s-off to do either.

Yes sir. Relocked, only that at the top it says "security warning." I renamed the folder to firmware.zip and it is on the platform tools folder.

So Hboot 1.55, S-ON, and can't go back to stock?
Go to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658910
Download that RUU. Now, go into fastboot and relock your bootloader. Flash the firmware on that thread through fastboot, there's a video there showing you how. After that is done, go back to fastboot and you can run the RUU you downloaded from that thread. That's what I did and worked like a charm. Recommended if you use USB 2.0

Just flash firmware 4.06.651.4 (you'll be on hboot 1.56) and then run that RUU. Don't worry about 5.05.651.2 firmware or RUU.
Make sure you relock your bootloader before anything.
Whenever the RUU is done and you're back in stock, you'll get the OTAs to 5.05.651.2, just telling you exactly what I did that worked, I also had a lot of trouble getting back to stock/unrooting.

Need some help please

Needing some help if you anyone can help at all. I was trying unroot my Sprint M8. Something went wrong when I flashed stock recover wrong, I don't know what but the issues started after that, and now it keeps booting into bootloder mode and won't go pass that. I have contacted HTC Premium Support to see if they have any advice still waiting to hear back. I have contacted Sprint and they have told me to take into a store to see if it can be repaired. Does anyone have any tips or advice on how to fix this? Or do you know if it can be fixed by Sprint of if that is wasting a trip. Any help would be much appreciated. Don't know if this is the right forum or not. If not I'm sorry. Thanks for anyone in advance who has any advice tips or whatever it may be..
You can fix your issue with a RUU. Hit the second link in my sig and scroll down to the RUU section. Find the RUU that matches your current software/firmware version and follow the instructions in my thread to run the RUU on your device.

Even though I can't boot past the bootloader mode screen?
Download the latest RUU, and make sure that the appropriate drivers are on your computer.
Also, make sure that you lock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock) before running the RUU if you are S-On. If you're S-Off, just run the RUU as is.
If that doesn't work, come back here.
Edit: Magnum responded while I was still typing. Listen to him.
And to respond your question, the RUU is run from the bootloader screen, so you're exactly where you need to be.

Okay my bootloader is locked. The issues started some time between flashing stock recover and relocking the bootloader. It says Tampered Relocked Security Warning if that means anything.
Now I tried fastboot oem rebootRUU and fastboot flash zip firmware.zip when it is flashing the zip in RUU it says

Is there anything to be done from here or should I just take it to the carrier store to see if they can fix it or should I just send it in for repiar to HTC?

Sprint should be able to fix it. Having said that, you don't need to try and run the RUU from a command line. Double-click the RUU file from your desktop to start the installer, then follow the prompts on your computer as they appear.

I have a question im on a stock rooted rom with no system changes except for the boot up sound which i restored. I flashed the stock recovery and then tried to take the OTA but it failed about a quarter of the way through. would my best bet be to just flash the firmware and flash a 4.4.4 stock rom with the eye feature when available or do I just do a RUU? Im just trying to keep phone up to date with stock rom. any suggestions?

Currently there is no stock rooted ROM for 4.4.4. You can update your firmware if you'd like and then wait for someone to publish a stock rooted ROM. Otherwise you can troubleshoot the reason you can't install the OTA and go from there.

How are we supposed to known which one you need if you are not giving any information about your phone?
Post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (except imei and serialno) and we will be able to tell you if there is a ruu for your phone

we need to know:
your CID
your MID
What version number is currently installed on the phone
s-on or s-off
locked or unlocked bootloader
all these info are included in a "fastboot getvar all" except the bootloader status (locked or unlocked)
And Do i need to S-OFF to Use RUU's?

it all depend the output of "fastboot getvar all" but if the phone was on 4.4.3, yes you'll probably need s-off. There might be alternatives that doesnt require s-off (stock odexed rom, reset rom, nandroid backup....)
waiting for your fastboot getvar all

still need to know:
your CID
your MID
What version number is currently installed on the phone
s-on or s-off ---> s-on
locked or unlocked bootloader --> unlocked
The fact that your phone is currently running CM11 is irrelevant for finding the right ruu. We need to know what firmware version is on your phone (example: 5.12.707.104)

No, s-on will prevent you flashing the wrong RUU. Anyway I'm 99% sure there will be no RUU availabe for you phone. WIth s-on you can only flash RUU that are same or higher version then what was on the phone before. There is no 4.4.3 RUU except for t-mobile which is not your version.
So unless you achieve s-off, you will not be able to use a ruu.
But there might be some others alternatives to bring your phone back to stock like a reset rom, stock odexed rom or a nanadroid backup,
Unfortunately, if you can't tell me more on your device (CID/MID and firmware version). I can't help you more and I cant point you the stock rom, reset rom or nandroid backup you need.

If that phone was s-on and on stock 4.4.3 before, it should be on hboot 1.57 which mean you'll need to use a 6.xx.707.xx stock rom/reset rom/nandroid backup. Not even sure if you'll need a .707 version.
There is a 5.xx.707.x reset rom in the general section. Maybe it could be that one, maybe not, but you could download that one so you'll be ready tomorrow.

its a flashable zip with the aroma installer. Its a stock rom and stock recovery and radio are included which mean you are supposed to be able to flash ota after flashing this zip.

It's not about Flashing OTA!! Will he receive OTA ? Directly thru the phone ?

its a stock rom so yes. He will be prompted to download and install the ota normally.
But if the phone firmware (x.xx.xxx.x) doesnt match that rom version (5.12.707.104), the ota installation might fail.

Okay!! Will that Flashable ZIP Works ? What's the worst case scenario ? I can't ask the owner Coz he's n00b!!
wait
I found another reset rom, its a 6.13.707.106 version which is the latest version I think. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001611719
so tomorrow, check the getvar all, if the version main is 6.13.707.106 then flash the zip linked above
if the version main is 5.12.707.104, flash this one: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23578570567720676
in both cases, when flashing the zip, you'll be prompted to install stock recovery, stock radio and root. Say yes to install stock recovery and radio but say no for root.
btw, give yatindroid a thanks for these roms in his thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/general/stock-rom-reset-t2802061

Yes they are often used by many ppl here. Flash it using a custom recovery, no needs to relock the bootloader, once flashed, the custom recovery will be overwritten by the stock recovery so he will be able to install future ota updates.
What's the worst case scenario ?

the version-main doesn't match the 2 reset roms linked above.
