Couldn`t work as you are S-On. I think you`re stuck bro afaik. Maybe someone else knows a solution. Good luck.

That's odd. It shouldn't have run at all since you can't downgrade using a RUU without s-off. It should have prompted a RUU error noting that you were on a later version.
Is your phone rooted and unlocked yet? Did you do anything to it besides run the RUU?

Can't you just use fastboot to push a custom recovery and then sideload a custom or stock ROM?

Looks like his only option. Surprised that the RUU wiped his device before getting the error.
There's no way to downgrade hboot with s-on atm.

I'm gonna be 'that guy'... What the heck were you doing flashing an RUU on S-on with 'limited IT knowledge'...
There's a reason RUUs aren't released. It's to prevent this.
On a side note I would try another RUU download. Where are you getting the error at? What's the phone doing?

I'm wondering now. Did you actually try to fastboot flash the 1.44 WWE firmware.zip in RUU mode despite being s-on? Because if you really did that, the phone is dead. You're getting a signature error because the phone is s-on and you managed to corrupt something important. Being s-on, I doubt there is any way to fix it.
An expensive lesson, but maybe you'll be more careful next time. Gaining s-off isn't worth bricking your phone.

This is confusing as the official RUU's (exe's and zips) will simply not allow you to downgrade the hboot or to flash an older version of the firmware without having s-off so my thoughts are exactly the same as iElvis.
I cannot see how you managed to do what you did.
So questions....
Are you running a custom recovery?
Is your bootloader locked or unlocked?
Have you tried holding vol down and power for about 15 to 30 seconds to see if you can get into the bootloader?
Did you do something like reboot into bootloader, fastboot oem rebootRUU and then fastboot flash zip firmware.zip?
TELL US the exact steps you went through so we can try to help you and worst case scenario you have bricked your phone.

I am having a similar problem only i have S-off but i cant find the right RUU or the right recovery.img to fastboot it .
If you have rumrunner_HTC_0.5.0.zip you could gain s-off very easy .

Sorry m8. Hate to break it to you but I accidentally did this too and I've found no solution for it. Ended up buying a new One...... I don't think there is a fix for this at all.

theirs no way we can help you with that little bit of information
when asking for help, you need to list your full phone information by posting the results from
fastboot getvar all minus your serial no and IEMI. What version of custom recovery did you have installed. Is you phone S-off ? How did you decide what RUU to flash ?

Please edit your post to remove the info I did
The reason the RUU failed is your S-On and you can't downgrade while s-on
Use this SuperGuide to get your self s-off and hboot 1.44.000 then try your RUU

[Q] need help getting s-off to get to stock, version-main empty

Hello,
As the title already states i a m looking for a way to get S-off so i can change the CID to a more general one and to go back to stock.
I tried several things like firewater, Rumrunner but all with no luck.
Maybe i am missing something or its because i am on bootloader 1.55, but i need some guidance, if its even possible with my phone.
The strange thing here is that the "version-main" information is empty...... maybe that can cause a problem?
I tried to change the version-main with the "echo "2.24.111.3 " | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 bs=1 seek=160" command and restored the "M7 TWRP Nandroid Backup CID T-MOB101 2.24.111.3" backup i downloaded from htc1guru.com and the phone startsup and seems to work great i even recieved an update.

You can try firewater with various combinations of ROMs and kernels. Some have had success with ARHD and Bulletproof kernel. Should that fail, there is Sunshine S-OFF but it will cost a fee ($25).

What errors did you get with firwater and rumrunner?
Your version main was/is blank because you've used a version of TWRP recovery that has the misc partition bug. It is only a cosmetic bug though and doubt it has any effect on the s-off process.

Version-main will remain empty until you flash another firmware package. As Danny201281 stated it is cosmetic. Did you update to TWRP 2.6.3.3?

Use ARHD 53.0 or 62.0 and the current Bulletproof kernel. I would try ARHD with the stock kernel first before trying the Bulletproof kernel.
I would keep this site for future reference it has nandroid backups, OTA and recoveries of your version.

Well i installed TWRP 2.6.3.3 and ARHD 53.0. Then tried firewater en Rumrunner but no joy.
After that i looked at Bulletproof kernel but it seems s-off is needed to install that kernel.
Version-main is still empty...
So what can i do more?

You need Bulletproof 14.1 to go with ARHD 53 and the kernel does not require s-off

Ok finally S-off by using Sunshine, changed CID to HTC__001
Thanks for all the help.

Now i am on os-5.11.1540.9 HBOOT-1.57m by flashing a RUU zip (WWE) for the correct CID and MID but.....
It downloads an OTA update but says; we have determined that your phone may be running a modified version of its system software.
Is this because i am still S-off?

No ...STAY S-OFF no matter what
Your CID and Software are incorrect, 5.11.1540.9 is Developer Edition
HTC__001 is International .... What RUU did you use, and what did you do between flashing the RUU and getting the Update

Wel i figured that something was wrong with the software. I installed a gurureset version and followed his instructions, did not go back S-on and OTA worked like a charm.
Thanks for all the help guys, together with your information i figure it out at the end.

[Q] How to again unroot/Lock HTC One M7 which is still on stock/factory ROM.

Hi Guru's
I have rooted my HTC One M7 (India, CID - HTC_038) but didn't flash it with any custom ROM and continued using the stock/factory ROM. Now, I want to revert to the locked/unroot mode since I don't want to miss the OTA updates from HTC. I see that there is some information available on XDA and other forums but it looked fragmented to me. Can you please guide me or re-direct me to correct source which has more clear details.

Hi Guru's
I have rooted my HTC One M7 (India, CID - HTC_038) but didn't flash it with any custom ROM and continued using the stock/factory ROM. Now, I want to revert to the locked/unroot mode since I don't want to miss the OTA updates from HTC. I see that there is some information available on XDA and other forums but it looked fragmented to me. Can you please guide me or re-direct me to correct source which has more clear details. Please find the details. Thanks in advance !

For ota update to work you need stock recovery installed and 100% untouched stock rom (root and unlocked bootloader doesn't matter)
But when you unlock the bootloader, you loose the /data/preload folder which contain some HTC preloaded apps, weather animations etc...
Ota updates are patching these apps and if there are missing, the ota update installation will fail.
So you need to restore this folder and its files, set files permission and flash the stock 6.13.707.106 recovery back.
Or easier solution use this 6.13.707.106 reset rom. Flash it using your TWRP recovery. This will reset your rom to 100% stock including that /data/preload folder. You also have the possibility to flash the stock recovery when installing the rom, so you'll be 100% ready to take the ota update.
download the reset rom and push it to your phone storage
install it using TWRP
in the installation select YES for stock recovery and stock radio
select NO for ROOT

Some details i missed initially !
Really appreciate your quick response Alray but just wanted to add some more information (i hope its relevant !).
There is a new OTA update for India region, it successfully downloads but when the phone reboots , it goes into TWRP and if I try to flash that downloaded OTA from recovery, it fails.
My question is - The method described above by you will also take care of this issue..right ?

No. You will need s-off to flash this RUU
The only way to s-off your phone is by using Sunshine (Cost 25$).
There is no reset rom for your version (.401 M7_U variant).

Updating to Lollipop by OTA update
Hi Guru,

I also tried locking the bootloader but no luck
Kindly suggest how can I install the OTA for lollipop in my HTC One M7 or is there any Rom Reset that you can help us with.

Updating to Lollipop by OTA update
Hi yatindroid,
Actually I haven't removed imei & serial number
That was the complete output of getvar all

Kindly assist me with the reset rom when you can.
Thanks

I can't find any stock recovery for 5.11.666.8 version and restoring the stock recovery is not enough to be able to receive ota update again in most cases. If you have unlocked the bootloader you lost some HTC apps (i.e Flashlight, Calculator, RingTone trimmer etc..) which are required to install ota update (if only one file to be updated is missing from your phone, like an HTC app, the ota update installation will fail).
I think you should re-stock using the latest available Bell RUU
Backup your important files before, the ruu will wipe your phone.
Download the file above and save it to your adb/fastboot folder.
Download this fastboot version (important) and save it to you adb/fastboot folder
Make sure your bootloader is locked or re-locked, if not:
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
Then flash the ruu:
Code:
htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip PN07IMG_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_BM_7.17.666.7_Radio_4T.35.3218.16_10.33Q.1718.01L_release_420193_signed.zip
htc_fastboot reboot
Phone will reboot itself once during the flash and you'll see an error message in your command window at the same time, its normal as long as the end result is "successful"
Btw edit your above post and remove your IMEI number and your serialno. Never post these numbers.

HTC M7 - Return to stock - Have lollipop OTA update

Hello everyone,
I want to receive the latest OTA update for my M7. I know this is not possible with a rooted phone
I have been reading through this forum since yesterday and could not find a straight forward solution - I could not understand some of the terms used! I even visited htc1guru and found a lot of information, but could not determine which one is good for me.
Information are scattered and are not in one location, and it seem that everyone has his own case, so I appreciate if I can receive some help or if someone can guide me with the steps to be taken. BTW my phone CID is HTC__A48, is this bad?

Everything you need to return to full stock is here, because you have the M7_U, makes it a bit harder: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/backup-100-stock-6-09-401-111-twrp-t2992871
Restore the TWRP backup from the link then flash the stock recovery also from the link, update should work then.
after updating, create a backup and copy to your computer before rooting or anything in case you need it again.

At last I can see something that might work! and it is because of your help sir.
I will download the files and give it a try.
However the thread author also included " 6.09.401.111 Firmware with Hboot 1.57.000 https://yadi.sk/d/n7BAQ8vpdqPSS " can this be useful?
Many thanks

you shouldn't need to flash the firmware, and as your version-main is missing I cant be sure its the correct firmware for your phone, so I wouldn't risk it, your firmware might be newer or even 2 or 3 steps older in which case it wouldn't work, the backup and recovery file should be enough to get the update.
