Need some help finding the newest update for HTC One M7 - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had rooted my phone a year or so ago. I installed the update for the phone that was recent at the time, but now I need a new update.
Is there one available currently for my phone?
I can't remember all of the information I am supposed to provide to help with the search for it, so I will need some assistance with remembering how to do all of this.
Thank you!

Oh yes, that's right I need to download the ADB&Fastboot drivers again. Would you be able to post a link to where I can download it from that is reliable and safe?

I use minimal fastboot and adb on my windows 7. Still didn't find a suitable bundle for my 10 though. So, just search for minimal fastboot and adb tool

Can not load device. deleted some system font, after restart it holds on white screen

Can see just HTC that's it.
Can i recover it?
Please help...
Hey came across this on under the "latest" tab, I don't have the same device as you, so my advice could be way off base. but if you can get into recovery mode then you're fine, just do a data wipe/factory reset in recovery mode. If that doesn't work, flash a new rom. This is assuming you have root and a custom recovery.

How can i flash a new rom? where can i get it? I can not get to recovery mode
I'm afraid you may be out of luck. Unless someone more familiar with your device has better advice. Knowing what I know about android, it appears you've "hard bricked" your phone, and there may not be a possibility of recovery.

Did you unlock the bootloader at the HTCdev website? If so you need to relock it in fastboot (type fastboot oem lock ... I think its that, someone correct me if I'm wrong) and install one of the stock roms from the link a couple of posts up.
DO NOT try to install a stock rom with the bootloader unlocked!!!!!
If you didn't unlock the bootloader, thats where the problem is, install a stock rom and then go to HTCdev.com to unlock the bootloader, once that is done you can then root and install capys rom
Vertigo:
Yep, i reloked phone from
fastboot with command
fastboot oem relock
Then i have installed official ROM (exe)
And thats it.
It was so easy... I have spent about 10-12 hour with my pc and phone to made that solution....
I AM HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Umm, just in case
In such situation you don't need to wipe everything and flash a new rom...
just push original font back to the fonts folder via adb and that's it...

In fastboot mode you can not use adb. Because there is no any launched OS to use adb commands.

Hi,
Try the following:
1. Download adb tools. (www.filesonic.com/file/1774628264)
2. On your pc click on your local disk C: Drive (or D: drive for some) (WINDOWS users: Start > My computer > Local Disk (C)
3. Create a new folder called "adb" and extract the files from adb.zip into it. Make sure it doesn't create another folder in the adb folder when extracting
4. open command prompt (or terminal for linux) and type "cd" "followed by the path to your adb folder" (windows users can type "cd C:\adb")
5. Don't forget to enable the "usb debugging" when you connect it by the USB.
6. Enter in the command prompt screen the following:
adb devices
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot getvar cid
7. If your mobile is from Europe, it will give you: HTC__001.
8. You can search the net for other codes and accordingly, download the suitable RUU file. If you are unlucky like me, your mobile will show "HTC__038" .
Good luck.

When it tells you to update, don't listen to it. Instead, download a rom (which is based off the new update) from the Android Development section, copy it to your SD card and install it with TWRP. Be sure to factory reset before you do

To update via OTA you must be on the stock recovery. Custom recoveries will not install OTA. Best bet is to run RUU as mentioned.

Fastboot drivers for W8.1?

My bootloader is locked and I was trying to bump up to 4.4.4
Problem is I have to flash my kernel manually via fastboot and my computer isn't recognizing my X in fb mode. I've done manual flashes on Windows 8 before but its been a while since flashing and my laptop is up to 8.1 now.
So my questions: Do the fastboot drivers for the X not work properly on 8.1 and if there are new ones where can I get them?
I've already been to the moto site to download the Motorola Device Manager but it still doesn't fix my problem. Without the kernel the phone boots but its all kinds of buggy. Luckily I was able to Nand back to 4.4.2 and everything is stable.If you can help me that would be greatly appreciated... And if not then I'll just have to wait on Sunshine.

Sorry if that was not the answer you were looking for. I was trying to figure out what you did. Making sure you did not try and downgrade your bootloader. If you need to flash your kernel and your PC won't recognize your device why not use flashify app or similar to flash it without a PC?

I'm pretty sure you can't flash a stock kernel onto a locked bootloader device without using fastboot to do it. I haven't tried it but I'm also not trying to risk it. I was just wondering if the fastboot drivers were compatible with Windows 8.1 is all.

HTC M7 no update to android 5

Hi guys,

It's just to much thing that i cant understand.

The phone is bought from Ali-express.

you'll need to post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (dont post your imei/sn) so we can tell you how to update. The version shown in your picture isn't necessarily the same version you'll find in bootloader.
And may I add - it would be better if you took a picture of bootloader screen. That way we could have better idea of phone's state. Is the bootloader unlocked, real firmware version, s-on or s-off...
Hi guys, today i managed to get the needed info. Please see the attached pictures. PS; why is the CID 1111111? Does that mean that the phone has been rooted? And s-off?
Thank you guys in advance.

Your phone was messed with. Great thing it's s-off. Someone flashed a new h-boot over old firmware, that's why you can't receive updates.

Take a look at this thread, download 7.19.401.1 RUU.zip, and flash it, you have all instructions on the thread. That will update your phone to Lollipop

Lol, it cool. Im sorry to bother you with so many questions... BUTT there a 2 versions of 7.19.401.2 the combined and FULL STOCK. The Combined is about 40MB and the FULL STOCK is 500+MB. Do i need to flash the combined or the full stock? I think full stock because i cant understand how a zip of 40MB can flash a new firmware, or im wrong?
So sorry for this noob questions, im used to Samsung where i just need to flash 1 file:silly::silly:

Full stock will give you a fully stock Android, but it will wipe everything from your phone, so you might want to back up your files before doing anything. I always flash full stock, just to be on the safe side. And there's no need to apologize, better to ask if you'rr not sure than ruin your phone, right? [emoji6]

Yeah you are right, normally i don't ask so many questions. I just flash the phone ans see what it will bring me to.
But this is not my phone, it's my brothers in law phone.
Last question, i hope, i read that after flashing full stock zip i need to flash rom, kernel and recovery and that phone wont boot up after the flash. It needs a rom flash.
So what should i do? I'm a bit confused, there is so much information and so many files..

No. Full stock will flash everything. If you have doubts I can send you my old KitKat RUU. You will be able to take updates with it, but it takes over an hour to get all updates. It's your call [emoji4]

You need to do it via HTC fastboot
donkeykong1 said:
You need to flash it in RUU mode. Issue the next command "fastboot oem rebootRUU" without quotation marks obviously. That will put your phone in RUU mode ( black screen with silver HTC logo ). Then fastboot flash zip

Yes i did that, first command was fastboot oem rebootRUU. I tried to open the zip but my pc said it was no possible. Im downloading the zip again. I will try it again in 15min.

Did you try unzipping it before flashing? Because those zips are enrypted and they cannot be extracted

Hi, no i did not tried to extract the zip. But i downloaded it again and i got the same error, 32.
I read somewhere that i need to flash the firmware first and then the rom but i dont have the needed files.
I also tried to flash the combined zip of 40MB and then the 1.6GB zip but i keep getting the error..

Then you definetly need to flash via HTC fastboot. I don't have it, so maybe @alray could help
@donkeykong1
I dont know how but i managed to update the phone.
I downloaded the fastboot of htc site and installed htc sync. Then i pluged the phone in with and without development modus on to instal drivers.
After this i pluged the phone back on in fastboot mode and flashed the zip of 1.6GB. It started right away and installed the android 5.0.2.
Working good till now, so thank you for your help.:sly:
