Hi, I tried to ruu my Sprint HTC One with this RUU and my device is now in bootloop. I have tried running the RUU more than twice today which were successful but the device is not booting. Device was on 4.4.2 with no issue apart from wifi not turning on, this was before running the RUU. Could this be a hardware issue. Any help please?
Any help please.
You might need to update your firmware.
The last few updates require the hboots on your device and RUU need to match or you get a bootloop.
Flash the matching Full Firmware to the RUU you are trying to run.
I will try this and report back. Thanks
I flashed the 1.01.20.1225_6.16.651.2_radio firmware which is the same with the RUU I have and my HTC One booted. The only issue now is that my device keeps rebooting and I can't turn on WiFi, it's gray scale. Do you think this is a hardware problem?

Did you RUU after flashing the firmware?

I am literally losing my mind!
About a month ago, I successfully rooted my Incredible S with Revolutionary, which updated my HBoot to 6.13.x, and then flashed Cyanogenmod 7 through ClockworkMod Recovery. For various reasons, I needed to give my phone to someone in stock form, so I tried using the rom.zip file from the stock RUU of my phone I found on these forums. After it seemingly completed successfully, except for the fact that it said it couldn't roll back HBoot, it asked to reboot, and ever since then, it repeatedly turns on and off, only making it as far as the first HTC logo. Bootloader still works, while recovery doesn't. Selecting recovery restarts the on-off problem. What should I do to revert to stock? Thanks in advance for ALL help.
Phone is from Bell Mobility, I think.
***Note: I know I shouldn't post unless going through EVERYTHING similar or related, which I've been literally doing for the past ten hours. Nothing has worked.

You need to flash the vivo_downgrade.img in fastboot mode before running an RUU if you have revolutionary s-off
Code:
fastboot flash hboot vivo_downgrade.img
grab it here http://alpharev.nl/vivo_downgrade.img

After you do the fastboot command, you can then run the RUU again and it should then change the HBOOT.

Yeah I did run the RUU after, and after it once again seemingly finished successfully, I rebooted to the same problem, so I just dismissed it. Looking at it now, the Hboot has downgraded. Does this mean that if I run the RUU once more, I"ll be back to stock? Also, S-ON is on as well. Thanks for the help.

If the HBOOT version changed after running the RUU then you are already back to stock.

I'm not sure, but I think the problem I'm having may be that I've been using an RUU that's not Gingerbread, and my radio version is too high to accept it. Could that be it? Radio is 3805.04.03.X.

The radio version changes when the ruu is completed. The version you posted is quite low already, why not install a GB ruu anyway? Could you provide a link to the one that you did run?

Yes run the gb ruu, its usually a bad idea to run anything froyo anyway as it usually results in a brick.

Yep, it's fixed now. The problem was that I was using the Froyo ROM when I should have been using the GB ROM, as was pointed out, as well as my HBoot needed downgrading to accept the proper ROM as well. Thank you both for all the help, extremely appreciated.

Hey guys so another newb fail here, essentially I rooted my phone and installed a cmd rom and messed my phone up. Went through all the steps in trying to fix it, ruu etc but the ruu was out of date? Or my phone needed a different version. Anyway now my internal storage isn't mountable and I can't do anything. Very worried I ruined my phone! Does anyone have any advice?
A little more info would be helpful. Like what ROM exactly did you flash? Were you on the latest 1.31 RUU? Did you try flashing a 1.29 RUU?

It was this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2356654
once I installed that everything went wrong, but I found a way to reboot because I made a backup and it saved to my phone and then i installed them7spr-RootBox-JB-houstonn rom, that worked for a bit but I had no service at all. So I tried to do the RUU trick but didn't realize the numbers didn't match the 1.31 as it prompted (it was 4 in the morning and I was really worried so I tried everything) so that crashed and my bootlock was locked, I then unlocked it again and when I tried to turn it on it would just load the rootbox rom's loading screen then power off. But in short yes, I was on 1,31 and tried flashing to 1.29
Got a little update, so I downloaded http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368907 and went into cmd and typed in fastboot flash recovery boot.img and got it to start loading the rom but it crashes after about 2 minutes. I can't go into recovery mode anymore, I'm assuming the flash wiped it clean? No idea what to do next. Any insight would be amazing!
1. Never flash ROMS that aren't made for your phone. ARHD is made for GSM variants of the HTC One only. I believe ARHD was also available for CDMA in point in time, but not anymore
2. You can't go back to previous RUU's unless you have S-off
Have you tried to RUU to 1.31? Did you re-lock your bootloader first? If not, do that first and you should be fine.

I can't seem to find the Sprint HTC ONE 1.31 RUU anywhere so I can use the program to fix my phone since I wiped the internal storage before pushing a rom to the device. OTG doesn't work. I have TWRP installed and I can get into fastboot, but adb isn't working at all. Any help??

Thanks in advance for any help... I've searched and come up empty in terms of up-to-date stuff. I'm super-cid, unlocked bootloader, s-off (phone came that way off a private sale) with a RUU conversion to GPE. I want to take advantage of the sense 6 update especially the new battery saving mode. Really wondering weather:
1- downgrading firmware is still a thing coming from GPE and going to the latest Sense 6 roms
2- Weather I should use an RUU or try flashing a custom recovery and a wrong
3- Weather there's any other watch-outs I should know
Change your CID/MID accordingly for Dev edition and run the http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...3_SENSE50_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_3.22.1540.1.exe
This will get you going all the way to Sense 6 with a few updates. Do not LOCK boot loader or turn S-ON
Thanks! I tried this and got an ruu fail. My phone was left in a weird version of the recovery/fastboot screen that said ruu but I rebooted and it was fine. Just not sure if I should try again.

Based on the google searches I've done, this is normal. The HTC RUU installation never actually finishes. You just need to wait until the progress bar stops moving, make a coffee, then reboot and hope you haven't just bricked the phone.

See above--what happened to him is normal.
Just to clarify it rebooted back into the previous (gpe) system. Flashing the ruu failed with a message about getting the correct one for my phone, which is odd because I am supercid and s-off.

Hey all,
I'm trying to get my phone back to my carrier's stock but I'm running into some issues.
I can't use a RUU because I have one of the "Whelp" non-s-off phones. Most guides on here as well require you to have s-off to do.
Any idea's on how to bring a S-ON'd phone back to stock?
Thanks,

whats your fastboot getvar all
can you do a Guru Reset ?
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

OKAY

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.
