Is your recovery stock? If not, the OTA won't work.

Cannot update to 4.3 with sense 5.5?

I followed the guide below to change my CID to HTC_13 to get the 4.2.2 update faster. Everything was fine.
Today my phone detected the 4.3 update with sense 5.5 and after I download it and I click install, the phone reboots and it installs for a while before a Red Exclamation in a red triangle appears.
After a while it reboots and Im asked to download the update again. Can You tell me why this is so?
I'm on S-OFF and Unlocked bootloader.

Then can you tell my why it fails to update?
I've no idea. So long as you're 100% stock, have the right CID and MID you should have no issues. It worked fine for me, but then again I'm S-OFF so whether that has anything to do with it I don't know as I downloaded the OTA and flashed it manually in the stock recovery
Me to.. just back 100% stock RUU 1.26.xxx.x and I didn't receive any ota update

bootloader doesnt have to be locked to received and install the update
can you verify what exactly was the first update you received?
after returning to stock yesterday, i received two updates and downloaded both
first update was some firmware fix and the second was the 4.3 update
both run flawlessly and now i am on stock 4.3 sense 5.5
s-off, unlocked bootloader
Does flashing a RUU also install the correct recovery? I have my HTC One S-off, unlocked and changed the CID to 11111111, flashed the RUU and now when I get the OTA it just comes up with the error that my version of Android is modified so it can not be updated.
What have I done wrong?

stuck while running 3.04.651.2 ruu.

i wanted to get stock Rom from custom Rom with image version 3.04.651.2 . So I downloaded latest ruu. Which is also 3.04.651.I re-locked boot loader and started ruu
It cleaned user data till 3% then got stuck at sending file.
Then returned error that it can't upgrade this version of ruu.
Now I'm at stuck at the white screen with boot loader , fastboot modes etc option. Custom recovery is gone. I can't unlock it again
I don't have s-off enable.
While erasing data it's on HTC black screen with logo.
Then it says sending . And then it gives error saying it can't update using this ruu. Try another version. I'm lost.:crying:
Please help me please.

Tried running RUU two more times and it worked.
Now I want to figure how to Unlock relocked Bootloader. I think its only possible via S-off.
Now the problem is that ADB is offline mode.. how Do I adb and push the needed files for s-off
I am on windows xp

Update you android sdk/platform tools folder that will fix the offline status
There are no files needing to be pushed to get s-off

Thanks, I got the online status.
Now I am with "Relocked" Bootloader, Hboot 1.55, 4.3 Android.
I read that I cannot get S-off on this built. Therefore I tried Rumrunner. But that is failing too after few reboots.
So what is the way to get Bootloader unlocked. Cannot Unlock via HTC DEV Since its Relocked.
My purpose here to unlock bootloader is ROOT the phone and unlock Sim Lock.

You can use your unlock token if you still have it. If not you can use HTC-Dev again

thanks a ton. I swear I tried it thrice before. But I think because of drivers I got error message saying "too Many links"
I tried dev token again and it worked.
Now I have to figure out way to unlock SIM. So far all methods are proving useless after Sprint has decided to screw people with blocking s off and removing api that allowed SIM unlock

If you can't unlock using HTCdev and ''fastboot oem unlock'' doesn't work, you'll need to s-off it again. If the phone doesn't boot then you are stuck.

But my device is unlocked, rooted and S-OFF .

- tried factory reset then OTA update, the same red triangle ...
Can someone help me and guide me what to do next, please ... I'm out of ideas ?

it's probably cause you don't have the preloaded apps (because of unlock)
1- UNLOCK again!!! with S-Off you don't need to LOCK/RELOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2- install this: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-62-401-1-zip/
(with stock recovery)
then take the OTA
DO NOT GO S-ON

You could try ARHD 51.0 which runs 4.4.2 since you're rooted and S-OFF.
Thanks a lot guys , the HTC1Guru Reset did solve my issue!

Would you be able to link me the stock recovery? I'm in the same situation. Thanks in advance.
You don't need any recovery image that tool will do the recovery for you (it has the recovery image in the kit)
nkk71 posted above the link for that tool.
what about user with HTC One Dualsim 802w and 802d ?? how to restore preloaded apps?
Which pre-loaded apps would those be? I'm wondering if I install this, am I going to lose my current settings and data?

T Mobile Update To 4.4.2 with S-OFF?

My phone right now is unlocked and with s-off. I was thinking I could relock the bootloader and run RUU to go back to complete stock (with S-OFF). My question is can I install the tmo update with S-OFF? Has anyone done this before? Or do I have to go back to S-ON in order to install the update?
I know that rumrunner does not work with HBOOT 1.56.
Any help would greatly be appreciated, thank you.

don't think S-OFF or unlocked matters, just stock rom and recovery required
if i run RUU will that give me stock recovery?

If you have a ruu for your currently installed rom, you can extract the recovery from the zip and install.
Otherwise

My phone is unlocked/S-OFF. On the previous OTA updates, all I had to do was reflash the stock recovery and the updates proceeded normally, installed just fine. On this new OTA update to 4.4.2, however, that didn't work. I tried relocking the bootloader, flashed the stock recovery... nothing worked (it would get the red slash during the recovery part of the OTA update). Evidently, T-Mobile/HTC are now much more picky about modified devices.
So, to get the OTA to work, I had to run the last RUU from T-Mobile. That, of course, wiped my phone clean, but installed a locked fresh 4.3.1 ROM (still S-OFF). Then the OTA update ran perfectly, resulting in the 4.4.2 OS installed. Then I unlocked it, flashed TWRP recovery and rooted it. It's working beautifully.
