You need to go into Fastboot mode and enter the command:
Fastboot getvar main_version and post your results. Also a shot of what your current HBOOT screen looks like.

Ok the line version-main shows that you have 3.09.415.2 which is what the OTA Attempted to install. In order to flash an older RUU, you need to change this value using the main_version program to something like 1.00.0000. Search this forum for downgrading hboot and you should find instructions on how to do that.

OK, so inside the downgrade toolkit zip file you should find both zergRush and misc_version images, right?
Here are the steps you need to try using adb after you copy the zergRush and misc_version images to the same directory where you have adb.exe and fastboot.exe:
adb shell rm -r /data/local/tmp/*
adb push zergRush /data/local/tmp/zergRush
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/zergRush
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tmp/zergRush
adb shell /data/local/tmp/sh -c '/data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.00.000.0'
Once you have done that then you can try flashing the RUU for your region.

Possible to s-off again and reflash boot.img from official RUU?
Not familiar with these issues as I find it hard to fathom why one would want to go official after trying so hard to go custom.
Edit: @tpbklake I don't want to step in on your support, but are you sure your code is correct? It's pushing zergrush and misc_version into their own folders within tmp but executing from tmp? Misc_version needs superuser permissions.

I completely agree, but the fact is some of these noobs see an OTA pop up and immediately think they need to flash it and end up in these situations without even reading and researching. Then they come help looking for help...

Lol yeah I noticed, but I also noticed that you're almost always the first and usually only one helping them out.
While I think your hard work and tireless efforts are commendable, spoon feeding noobs will just make them that much more dependant on you next time, and the time after that,etc..
From what I have seen of your activity on this forum, your thanks meter should be well in excess of your posts. /2c

It is like baking a cake. You can give them a recipe, but if they don't know how to turn on an oven, run a mixer or know the measurement abbrev. then that recipe is not of much value now is it?

You need to have the phone booted normally when you are typing the adb commands.

OK, do you still have the OTA file that you attempted to flash? It is probably still on your microSD card in one of the directories somewhere.
If you open that OTA.zip file, there should be a file inside called firmware.zip (or firmware.img can't remember which one it is). If you extract that file and then copy it to your microSD car and rename it PG32IMG.zip (or PG32IMG.img if it is firmware.img) and then reboot into HBOOT mode, it will attempt to install this and if it is successful you should be good to go.

[Q] Can't unlock bootloader after relock

So I've converted my HTC One M7 from Sense to GPE and wanted to revert my changes. I flashed a Stock Nandroid backup (which worked fine), relocked my bootloader and made it from S-OFF to S-ON (why did I do this?).
I can receive the 4.3 OTA update directly with my phone, but after the download finishes, it says it finds that I've made some changes to my phone and it won't install the update.
My guess is that my kernel or my HBOOT aren't as stock as they should be.
I'm on 4.2.2
HBOOT-1.44.0000
RADIO-4A.14.3250.13
Firmware 2.24.401.8
Screenshot of my Firmware and so on:
s1.directupload.net/images/131108/yl3xutnf.png
s1.directupload.net/images/131108/a7mshuvo.png
Since I've updated to 4.2.2 I should have HBOOT 1.54, or not? After doing S-ON I can't upgrade my bootloader or flash anything anymore.
Even HTC Dev Unlock fails after getting a new unlock token. (It says success, but my phone won't do anything)
Any ideas?

If it's truly 1.44 (check in bootloader screen and make sure the date is before June 2013), then use revone to unlock.
EDIT: it may or may not work since you're already on 2.24, but give it a try anyway

I restarted in bootloader and checked it, it's 1.44 no doubt. I tried revone already many times but get "Segmentation fault (core dumped)".
Edit: I also checked the date. It's May 3rd 2013.

hboot is good, but the ROM is not really good for revone, best to have a 4.1.2 ROM. unless you can get your bootloader unlocked again, you might be stuck.
What's your current setup? post a "fastboot getvar all" (remove IMEI and s/n) and details of your ROM (you said you flashed a nandroid, which one)

If it's really because of 4.2.2, can I just install a 4.1.2 RUU over it with locked bootloader and S-ON?
I hope my getvar helps finding a solution.

RUU will work with a locked bootloader, but not with S-On (-> S-On won't allow you to downgrade which is only possible with S-Off)
And you firmware is 2.14.401.2 (posted in the getvar)? Haven't seen that one around. Let me think for a while
But in the meantime, can you try something in adb; after you push revone to the phone and open the adb shell, and change permission, your adb shell command prompt is supposed to start with "$", once you revone -P (gaining root access), does adb come back with "#" instead of "$"
can you do it and copy/paste the whole command prompt here.

somehow we need to get you into superuser mode, you wouldn't happen to have superuser installed, or be on custom recovery?
Options:
1- Have you tried typing "su" in the adb shell, we need to get the prompt to say # instead of $
2- exit the adb shell, and "adb reboot recovery" and see if adb shell gives you a # instead of $

I don't have su anymore and I just tried it to be sure. I can get into recovery when pressing Volume UP + Power when the Symbol appears after typing "adb reboot recovery". It's Android System recovery 3e.
If I try "apply from ..." it says "invalid operation" and immediately reboots...
Btw: I just noticed that the firmware version from getvar is different from my software version in the settings. (2.14.401.2 in getvar and 2.24.401.2 in software information in settings). I guess that's what he doesn't like about my build when trying to do the OTA...

Hey @Flibber, I've been looking around and
1- can't find anything on firmware 2.14.401.2 where did you get that from
2- your software version is 2.24.401.2, that's usually for M7_U models not M7_UL, also strange
How did you get your phone in that state??

First, I changed my MID and CID for going to GPE. To go back I used a nandroid backup of a DE O2 phone (since my phone is also a german O2 branded one). The problem is, i changed the CID to HTC__102 but forgot to change the MID back... No wonder that it won't accept any updates or OTA zips, since they don't match!
I have no idea since unlocking my bootloader, changing my MID/CID or going S-OFF won't work at all...
Edit: Is there any way to change a OTA firmware zip (to change the android-info.txt MID/CID) without losing the signature? Because when I try to flash a firmware zip from an OTA, it passes the signature verification, but fails after checking MID/CID (of course).
Edit2: I just looked into why I can't use revone and most users say that software and firmware version have to match. So the "only" thing I have to do is update my 2.14.401.2 firmware to 2.24.401.2. Again, an original firmware is needed where my CID/MID match the android-info.txt...

I'd really like to bump this. Is there really no way to rezip and sign firmware packages? Or any other solution available?

Sorry for bumping this again, but I'm really stuck with my lovely HTC One
No way to reset CID/MID? Maybe via support? Or something like a hard reset?

sounds like your trying to flash a RUU.zip from recovery .. it won't work
Instructions for Flashing RUU Zip Files:
Download the RUU.zip file and place in your ADB/fastboot folder. I would recommend renaming the zip file to something simple like ruu.zip.
Boot your phone into the bootloader by holding the power and vol up/down buttons at the same time until you see the bootloader screen or if you have your phone booted you can use the ADB command:
adb reboot-bootloader
Now use these fastboot commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Should see the Silver HTC logo. Now issue this command to flash your phone using the ruu.zip file:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
Now the first time you issue a command to flash firmware/ruu in fastboot it only prepares the flash. You have to issue the exact command again:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
The green status bar usually does not reach the 100% mark. When the output in the command window is complete, you can reboot:
fastboot reboot
**Notes about the RUU.zip method. You still need to have the proper CID for the RUU. You can run the RUU.zip with super CID, but you will have to lock your bootloader first. If you are running the RUU.zip as base to downgrade all your firmware because you are going to then going to restore a stock Nandroid so the RUU might not be made for your MID, so you may need to edit the android-info.txt inside the ruu.zip to include your MID or CID.

again let's check:
boot to custom recovery (CWM or TWRP), then
adb devices
-> check adb shows your device
then open a shell, and check /data partition; post back with result (copy/paste command prompt, no screenshots please):
adb shell
e2fsck -n -v -f /dev/block/mmcblk0p37

Rom help please
Maybe I'm using bad rom.
Can someone help me please to get right rom for my htc one? Because I think I'm using wrong ones.

Yep but the problem is sideload doesnt work. And adb push rom.zip doesn't work as well. The rom as if gets there but cannot flash it,error coms up trying install rom.zip /sdcard/, also it says internal storage 0mb

The command is adb push rom.zip /0/data/media
That's the way to send a zip file to the root of the internal storage. Is this what you 're doing?

from the size of the ROM, it looks like a GPE rom, you need S-Off for 4.4 GPE
why not just try an older 4.3 ROM and make sure your phone at least works.

So id better use 2.3RomRUU with S-ON, relocked, by entering fastboot oem recoveryRUU?
Gonna try it, and give response to this operation. By the way is it possible I couldn't use RUU earlier just because I was using incorrect CID romRUU?

[Q] Please help me try to un soft brick HTC One - KK, with sense 6 [SOLVED!!!!! THX]

Hi, I'm new to the site so I apologize if this particular problem has been solved somewhere - but I cannot find it.
My phone was running fine - it WAS STOCK with all the latest kit kat OS - including sense 6 (the one that has the greenish highlights versus the blue ones for blink feed etc.)
My phone is from Thailand - I guess it is the Asia or SEA version.
After I restarted the phone the other morning, it just went into the boot loop - white screen, saying powered by android - and then the HTC logo - with beats audio - over and over again.
I tried to do a hard reset - it didn't seem to work.
I then started to investigate - downloaded the RUU file etc - I can get the phone into the fastboot mode and get it talking to the computer - but then I got a 155 error when I tried to run the RUU file on to the phone.
Then I went to the HTCdev site and managed to UNLOCK the phone - it is still S-ON - and ran the RUU again - and with the same result.
It may be that I need to S- OFF the phone or run the TWRP thing on the side, but I do not know how to do this, or if it is the right thing to do - but I don't want to do anymore until I discuss with someone here - I am currently on holidays for a few more weeks in Australia, and will return to Thailand - the phone is still under warranty - but I would like to try to fix it and get it working before then.
At the very least, I would like to return it completely to stock - or at least LOCK it again - so that if I cannot fix it now, maybe I can submit it under warranty in a few more weeks. (but I would like to try to get the phone working now).
Any help someone can give would be great.
Thank you very much.

Dear people, I am getting desperate here - I have been told by Thailand HTC service that once my bootloader has been unlocked, it is no longer covered under warranty - so I am getting anxious to try to unbrick my phone....
further to the above - this is what i have done/tried...
I have downloaded the latest TWRP image and put it in the same folder as the adb fastboot file - ran the command to flash the recovery image - and it cannot read the file.
FYI, when I type in fastboot devices, it does register that the phone is connected.
I have tried to flash other RUU exe files for my phone - but there does not seem to be the right EXE file anywhere that I can find.
my phone is still in S ON.
Ideally, I just want my phone to get back to stock and hopefully relock or return to stock locked status the bootloader - I understand that I may need to perform S OFF to do this - however I can't seem to find the process for doing all this for my particular situation.
I have looked around a lot for tutorials etc to do this - but cannot seem to find something cohesive from start to finish for my problem.
I am not very computer literate - but I can follow clear instructions.
If anyone can help, I would be very grateful.
Cheers....

Just follow the return to stock guide. The 707 in your firmware version is the important bit.

I also tried the very latest TWRP file on the techerrata site - same result.
Is there something else that might be going wrong here? For some reason, the phone is having trouble with the img files. I also tried a CWM image file too - same result.
Any help most welcome and thanks for your assistance so far....

Did you follow clsA 1st instruction - UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER FIRST.
You cant flash anything with that locked.

You probably need to type the full path to the file, or to put the file in the same directory as the shell is running from (you can see the directory before the command prompt).

Hi - yes - I used the HTC Dev site to successfully unlock the bootloader a few days ago.
I believe I did clear the cache at some point yesterday while trying to find a solution to this - but this was after I has downloaded the TWRP IMG file and failed to load it to the phone - the message has been the same - cannot open.
I am using windows 8.1 OS.
Other info:
When I select IMAGE CRC on phone - it calculates - then gives:
rpm: 0x403AD75

hboot: 0x0
boot: 0x0

This is the latest GETVAR information - I notice that now the baseband version says N/A...I don't know what this means - maybe it is a result of the cache wipe? Maybe i have messed something up? But, the FASTBOOT command would not read the IMG file before this change.

Looks like it is NOT in the same folder or atleast not the same name.
Can you type dir, and post a screenshot of it ?

Also, because you are On 1.57 HBOOT, chances of going back to LOCKED bootloader by S-OFF are slim to none.

You have double file extension (.zip.zip or .img.img) because by default, windows hide known file type extensions and you manually renamed your file adding a .zip or a .img. To prevent that kind of error and always display file extensions, open any folder,then click in that folder and hit left ALT then click on Tools ---> Folders options ---> View tab ---> make sure ''Hide extensions of known files type'' is not selected. Then click ''apply''.
Now in your folder, delete double extensions, rename all your file so they have only have one file extension.
edit: here is a nice tutorial with pictures: http://askabouttech.com/how-to-show-file-extension-in-windows-7/

Hi - i got TWRP into the phone - the guys were correct - there were double .img descriptions in the saved file names - so once that was cleared up - it loaded onto the phone straight away.
I did download that ROM file - and followed the instructions - however here are the details of what came up on the computer screen next - (FYI, the TWRP screen on phone continued to say: updating partitiion details, Full SELinux support is present, Starting ADB sideload feature.

(is this ROM file the stock ROM - is there anyway to get that? or is this the first step in the process to that? I think my stock ROM is this one - but again - I guess I am taking baby steps - and it's good to have some progress...)

(NB - I have not downloaded or tried to sideload the above ZIP - only the one provided by clsA)
In the Bootloader mode - my phone now says UNLOCKED TAMPERED.
Feeling violated, hahaha. Anyway - thanks for the continued help so far....

Hi - i got TWRP into the phone - the guys were correct - there were double .img descriptions in the saved file names - so once that was cleared up - it loaded onto the phone straight away.
I did download that ROM file - and followed the instructions - however here are the details of what came up on the computer screen next - (FYI, the TWRP screen on phone continued to say: updating partitiion details, Full SELinux support is present, Starting ADB sideload feature.

while in custom recovery, what does "adb devices" report?
it should report, List of attached devices
<serial number> recovery
or
<serial number> sideload
if it doesn't, open Windows Device Manager and check the FAQ#2 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52135024&postcount=2
PS: Alternatively, in an effort to avoid reposting the same thing several times, I've also added this information, in the FAQ sticky thread. (I believe it's still in the last post)... you may want to check it.

THANK YOU! It is working - I did what you suggested and yes - the driver was not there - now the zip file has sideloaded!
Is the next thing to do to go to recovery and install the sideloaded zip file? NOTE that my phone is not rooted - the TWRP is asking me if I want to root the phone - using the SU thing - do I need to do anything like that first - or just go ahead and confirm to flash the file - TWRP is saying "this operation may install incompatible software which may render your device unusable..."
**My phone is an ASIAN one - from Thailand actually - so does this matter at all at this point?**
If you could just let me know....thanks so much!

[Q] Phone worked on GSM, changed MID, phone died

hello,
i bought a Sprint HTC one M7 WLS from ebay and shipped it to France.
i was able to Sim unlock / super cid / S-off / root / update PRL
everything worked fine with Bouygues telecom (french operator).
the phone was connected to 3G,HSPA and i had no problem with wifi / bluetooth...
the downsides:
-cannot connect to 4G
-cannot send or receive MMS
-cannot automaticaly receive vocal message ( i had to call BOUYGUES service messenger to hear my message. )
-annoying sprint welcome screen
after 3 month i decided to fix those issues so i changed the MID from PN072000 TO PN071000 using MID changer tool in order to install a BOUYGUES Telecom RUU.exe
(RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_Bouygues_FR_4.20.1020.12_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_351533_signed_2)
the MID was changed. and the firmware was flashed to 4.20.1020.12
the installation of the RUU begin normally than i receive the message: "htc fastboot has stopped working"
i tried to fix this issue but it didn't work (reinstalled a newer SDK adb fASTboot, updated HTC driver...)
i tried to "adb push a ROM.zip" but it didn't work
than i decided to forget about this RUU and tried to install a custom rom (Android_Revolution_HD-One_31.6, ViperOne_6.2.0, BadBoyz,) BUT NONE OF THEM INSTALLED CORRECTLY; my phone couldn't boot and i was stuck in fastboot mode.
after more than 20 attempts to fix the phone, i decided to CHANGE THE MID TO PN072000 and return back to stock.
but i realized that MID CHANGER Tool CAN CHANGE SPRINT MID but CANNOT REVERT BACK TO THE SAME SPRINT MID !
i feel so stupid and desparate now. i shouldn't have messed with this phone...
any idea, tutorial, solutions, hints... to solve this problem will be very much appreciated!!
Thank you

which tool did you use? and did it change the MID correctly? the reason I ask is because Sprint has a completely different partition layout then the rest of the M7 models.
what is the output of your "fastboot getvar all" (excluding IMEI, MEID, s/n), and do you have a working custom recovery?

hello,
here's the getvar all info:

i used MID_Change_TOOL_v.1.01.zip and followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535365
i tried to flash 5.03.651.3_Stock | Rooted | 4.4.2 | Sense 6 [5/29/2014] Deodex
i used an OTG cable and flashed the rom in clockworkmod (the ADB push rom.zip method didn't work)
the installation was successful but the phone did not boot.
and yes i made a back up in clockworkmod before flashing the htc but now i can't reinstall it. i am getting a message like "system fail to install".
thank you for your help!

if p6 is the same for Sprint and GSM models, you can use @scotty1223's adb commands in custom recovery to change MID: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2490792
the echo command for you to get back to PN0720000 should be:
Code:
echo -ne '\x50\x00\x4e\x00\x30\x00\x37\x00\x32\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=1 seek=16384
.

sadly i've tried this already.
i copy/pasted the message in cmd prompt:
C:\adb_fastboot_and_other_tools\Android>echo -ne '\x50\x00\x4e\x00\x30\x00\x37\x
00\x32\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=1 seek=1
6384
'dd' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

That's an adb shell command ...was the phone in recovery and did you start with adb shell followed by su and then the command ?
2)change your MID
warning: *do not try and type the command. please copy and paste it
-AT&T,developer,google play MID:
enter the following:
adb shell
su (if needed to get a # prompt)
Code:
echo -ne '\x50\x00\x4e\x00\x30\x00\x37\x00\x31\x00\x32\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=1 seek=16384
(the above is one big long command. make sure you copy it all,and dont get extra spaces when you paste it.)
exit
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot getvar mid (or getvar all)
verify PN0712000 for modelid
fastboot reboot

hi,
finally i managed to Restore the whole mess using the RUU.zip installation method:
i used the RUU_Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_1.29.651.10.zip to return back to stock
than i installed Bad Boyz Sprint ONE ROMz | 4.4.2 | Sense 6 | Deodexed | BB Updater | Updated 6/19/14
the method is described below:
Download the RUU.zip file and place in your ADB/fastboot folder. I would recommend renaming the zip file to something simple like ruu.zip.
Boot your phone into the bootloader by holding the power and vol up/down buttons at the same time until you see the bootloader screen or if you have your phone booted you can use the ADB command:
adb reboot-bootloader
Now use these fastboot commands:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Should see the Silver HTC logo. Now issue this command to flash your phone using the ruu.zip file:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
Now the first time you issue a command to flash firmware/ruu in fastboot it only prepares the flash. You have to issue the exact command again:
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
The green status bar usually does not reach the 100% mark. When the output in the command window is complete, you can reboot:
fastboot reboot
**Notes about the RUU.zip method. You still need to have the proper CID for the RUU. You can run the RUU.zip with super CID, but you will have to lock your bootloader first. If you are running the RUU.zip as base to downgrade all your firmware because you are going to then going to restore a stock Nandroid so the RUU might not be made for your MID, so you may need to edit the android-info.txt inside the ruu.zip to include your MID or CID.

i forgot to say that i couldn't change the MID using the adb shell command

why not? what was the error?

same error:
'dd' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

the only solution to this problem is to edit the android-info.txt file
so i am obliged to change the modelid: PN0720000 to modelid: PN0710000 every time i need to flash a rom.zip or a firmware

okay, while booted into custom recovery, do the following commands in bold blue:
(the output is simulated, but that's what it should look like)
Code:
C:\ADB3>[B][COLOR="Blue"]adb devices[/COLOR][/B]
List of devices attached
HT34xxxxxxxx recovery [I]<- you need to be in custom recovery to
ensure [B]root[/B] privileges
i.e. an adb shell with [B]#[/B] as opposed to [B]$[/B][/I]
C:\ADB3>[B][COLOR="Blue"]adb shell[/COLOR][/B]
~ # [B][COLOR="Blue"]echo -ne '\x50\x00\x4e\x00\x30\x00\x37\x00\x32\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=1 seek=16384[/COLOR][/B]
00\x30' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p6 bs=1 seek=16384 <
17+0 records in
17+0 records out
17 bytes transferred in 0.009 secs (1888 bytes/sec)
~ # [B][COLOR="Blue"]exit[/COLOR][/B]
exit
C:\ADB3>[B][COLOR="Blue"]adb reboot bootloader[/COLOR][/B]
then do a "fastboot getvar all" to check MID has changed back to PN0720000
please copy/paste all of the echo command to avoid possible problems.
