[Q] M7 GPE 4.4.2 Stock Recovery

I had a rooted m7 with stock recovery and after the 4.4.2 ota i lost root. i want to root again but don't want to have a custom recovery flashed.
where can i find stock recovery for 4.4.2 to apply after installing supersu?
the new ota update doesn't contain stock recovery or does it?

It should.
Open the OTA.zip then the firmware.zip inside it, and extract "recovery.img"

Would you be willing to post your recovery.img? I replaced my recovery.img with CWM recovery and I need a stock recovery if I ever want to back out from encrypting my phone.
Thanks

Orange EE 4.3 OTA

Hi,
My orange EE UK phone is on version Android 4.2.2 ,It is rooted etc with clockworkmod installed I have a update to 4.3, this won't install and have been told that I should flash back stock recovery .
I downloaded the 4.3 OTA file and copied the file onto my laptop from my phone.
I have read somewhere the within the 4.3 Zip file there is the stock recovery file that I need , is this true ?? if so where in the zip file will I find the recovery file.
If when I get the stock recovery file will I be able to flash it with the software (One_M7_All-In-One_Kit_v1.0 ) if not what software would I need to download.
I hope I've made my self quite clear and hope somebody can help me.
Take care everybody and thanks for all your help over the years

You will need the stock recovery from your 4.2.2 version, not the 4.3. If you have that ruu you can extract from the firmware folder. If you don't have, try this link. Be sure to get the version for your current OS ie: 3.x.x.x
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545227
The toolkit should work for you but select your recovery , or just use adb directly (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img)

my version is 2.24.61.1
I cant find this version anywhere

I think any recovery from a 2.24.xxx.x will work, but wait and see if someone else comments.
the recovery from this zip, would likely work. I used a Telus one for my Rogers device.

How to install OTA
If s off and super cid don't lock your boot loader again leave it unlocked
Make sure your device is unrooted and matching cid.
Make sure all missing apps that was lost when unlocking bootloader is there in /data/preload/apps.
Make sure u have stock recovery and reboot to it and if u r doing it manually all u have to do is rename ota to update.zip and go to stock recovery then hold power and double press vol up for options then go to install from ext sd card and navigate to the file and make sure u put it on the root of the ext sd card.
How to install firmware
Extract firmware file from Ota and put it to the root of the ext sd card and rename it to P068IMG.zip then reboot to boot loader when ur there use power key to select bootloader and the file will load just follow instructions and u will be updated.
Option two is that u can use a pc using fastboot type fastboot oem rebootRUU then when it's loaded type fastboot flash zip firmware.zip it will install if it says flush again repeat the fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. when ur done type fastboot reboot-bootloader to check if your firmware is updated
S-ON Details on how to flash a rom
Download the rom and copy to your phone
Download fastboot tools if you don't have them
Extract the adb folder in the fastboot zip to somewhere (E.g. C:\adb)
Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder
Connect your phone to your pc
Hold shift and right-click somewhere in the adb folder, select "Open command window here"
Restart your phone to bootloader, then select fastboot.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
Type "fastboot erase cache"
Type "fastboot flash boot boot.img"
Type "fastboot erase cache" again
Type "fastboot reboot recovery" to get to CWM or TWRP, whichever you have installed
Backup your system, data, and cache
Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, format system
Install the rom.

Good lookin out for this...Will be needed once Kit Kat is released for our phone.

Hi, i have three questions, i am 901s, not supercid, s-off, unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery and rooted...if i am correct the steps are:
1. I´have already downloaded the update in the phone that prompted when i search for updates in the system.
2. I have to flash first the recovery from 901s...that says 4.4.2 or do i need other recovery for 4.3?
3. I should go to the recovery and it just updated?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
version 2:
1. Flash stock recovery.
2. Put the update in the external sd card and rename update
3. Update trough recoveryvand select the file in the sd?
4. flash twrp recovery and root again.
with the firmware version, i don´t understand the difference between instal only the firmware instead of the ota. what are the differences? and last. how can i do this with twrp and flash a zip?
Thanks in advance :good:

Query
Hi, I am still on Stock ROM but I have made following changes
current state
- Rooted (So shows Tampered)
- Flashed TWRP
- Removed some APK files from the build after rooting because I wanted to remove apps.
- Downloaded the new OTA update from the link.
Clarity on:
a) Can I use TWRP manager app to install the OTA update?
OR
b) Do I simply flash stock recovery to install update?
OR
c) Clean STOCK ROM Flash. Clean Stock Recovery Flash. Then flash OTA new Android 4.4.2 KK update?
Also, wanted to check if I can go ahead with - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50923456&postcount=12 directly using TWRP Recovery? :S
Never mind - figured that I need to be on complete stock to apply the OTA successfully. -_-

Thanks man. Appreciate it. I was just a little impatient. Flashed Zarboz's .zip and the phone is working. Cheers! :good:

Need some help guys. I think I screwed up the process .. now my phone will not start.
When I power on my phone, the HTC logo will appear. After that it will slowly dim and stretch to the entire screen. Then the phone will restart again with the HTC logo appearing and the same process repeats.
I tried to load the bootloader and now there are 2 lines.
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
:cyclops::cyclops:
Tried factory reset but the same process as above repeats itself. No way I can reset the phone.
Any advise is greatly appreciated.

Since my phone is S-ON, I'm following the instructions on how to flash a rom.
At this step: Open the rom zip and extract the boot.img file to the adb folder, I am stuck. I opened the rom zip and I can't find any boot.img.
Did I missed something?
---------- Post added at 09:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------
Also .. at this step I'm stuck.
Type "adb devices" (don't type the " " for this or the others)
It should show your phone's serial number, if not download HTC Sync Manager and install
When I typed adb devices, it shows "List of devices attached" but it's empty (nothing), even though my phone is on FASTBOOT USB and I have installed HTC Sync Manager.

Help: Need Correct Stock Recovery to Update to Lollipop

Hello,
I currently have the Wind Mobile M7 5.0 (7.17.1500.8) Lollipop update waiting for me and I'm trying to find the correct stock recovery so that the update will successfully install. I'm running into red triangles so far. My current software is 4.4.2 (5.11.1500.8). Details of my phone are that it's currently S-Off, CID-Globa001, and Radio-4A.20.3263.16.
Can someone point me to the right stock recovery image?
Thanks,

take the one out of the update, download the update to your phone, select install later, plug your phone into the computer and copy the OTA to your computer, its just a zip file, its in the internal storage/downloads folder, open it with WinRAR, 7 zip, winzip, whatever it is you use, inside there you will see another zip called firmware.zip, open that and pull out recovery.img, flash it with fastboot then try and update again.

Recovery VS ROM for HTC m7

Hello, I flashed LOS with my m7 international version. Sadly, Lineage dropped the support. I then flashed back to stock ROM via twrp. However, the stock ROM always prompt me to install the OTA update and I couldn't because I replaced the stock recovery with twrp.
So, my question is can I just revert twrp back to stock recovery with the ROM being untouched. Or do I need to do so like this 100%?
Thanks.

If you can find the correct version of the stock recovery for your current firmware you can fastboot flash that.

How can I find the stock recovery? My version is: 7.18.708.21
However, I cannot find it on google.com.
please help.

When I typed "HTC One M7 stock recovery" into Google the first result I got was this XDA thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545227, so that's where I'd start looking.
As far as I can tell 7.18.708.21 is a HTC Asia HK software version. That thread has a recovery image for 7.18.708.2. I couldn't tell you whether the recovery changed at all between that and 7.18.708.21, so it's possible that that file will do what you want, but I cannot make any promises.
Otherwise you just have to try an RUU, as that guide you linked describes.

Yeah, I also got 7.18.708.2. However, I would not take the risk unless I found the right one. Thanks though.

Download your ota update
Select "install later"
Connect your phone to your compter and copy the ota zip file from the download folder to your desktop.
Use winrar to open the ota zip file and extract firmware.zip from it
Use winrar to open firmware.zip and extract the recovery.img file.
Thats the recovery you need, flash it with fastboot then reboot phone and install the post poned ota
If the ota fails to install, youll have to flash a ruu
