Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ​
Will this work on (insert alternate Htc One carrier here)?
Most likely not, give it a shot though! Remember I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device.
Can I return to stock?
Yeah, just flash the stock stuff through fastboot and relock your boot loader.
Will this void my warranty?
If you really have this question you don't belong on these forums... YES htc even told you themselves when you started the bootloader unlock process
My phone won't boot.
Well you did something wrong, return to stock using the above instructions and then try again.​

I am closing this thread because it has information which this thread already has in more detail.
It's best not to have a plethora of the same thread.
Thanks

How to flash new firmware and Rom, using MAC?

Hey guys
I want to flash my Firmeware after i unlocked my Bootloader and rooted my phone. What are the steps to do so on MAC computers?
I unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone few days ago by the following steps on my Mac sucessfully:
http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/
Step 1. First, go to Settings->Developer options and make sure USB debugging is checked ON.
Step 2. Connect a micro-USB cable from your HTC One to your computer.
Step 3. Download HTCOneRoot.zip and unzip to HTCOneRoot directory. This zip file contains everything you need to root your HTC One!
Step 4. Open a command prompt/terminal on your computer and type:
cd Downloads
cd HTCOneRoot
chmod 755 *
./adb-mac backup -apk -all -f backup.ab
Step 5. Go to your phone and choose “Backup up my data”. This will back up all of your app and app data.
Step 6. Once app backup is done, go to Settings->Power and make sure Fast boot is checked OFF.
Step 7. Turn off your HTC One. Then hold down Volume Down and Power buttons together for about 3-5 seconds until you see bootloader menu.
-Hit the Power button to enter Fastboot mode
-Connect micro-USB cable from your HTC One to your computer.
Step 8. Type the following in your command prompt/terminal:
./fastboot-mac oem get_identifier_token
Step 9. Copy the identifier token you get exactly as shown below (or see video tutorial).
Step 10. Go to HTCDev.com and log-in. If you don’t have an account, register then log-in.
Click on “Unlock Bootloader” then “Get Started”.
Step 11. Choose “All Other Supported Models” then click on “Begin Unlock Bootloader”.
Step 12. Choose “Yes”.
Step 13. Make sure check boxes are checked ON and click on “Proceed to Unlock Instructions”.
Step 14. Scroll all the way to the bottom and click on “Proceed to Step 5″.
Step 15. Scroll all the way to the bottom and click on “Proceed to Step 8″.
Step 16. Scroll all the way to the bottom and paste your token you copied over earlier. Make sure there’s no white spaces or INFO (if using MAC/Linux).
Step 17. Hit “Submit” and if you copied and pasted the token correctly, you should get a success message.
Step 18. Check your e-mail and you should have received Unlock_code.bin file from HTC.com.
Step 19. Download and copy the Unlock_code.bin file to the HTCOneRoot folder.
Step 20. Next type in command prompt/terminal:
./fastboot-mac flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin
Step 21. Go to your phone and choose “Yes” using Volume Up button then hit the Power button. Your HTC One will reboot in about 5 seconds.
Step 22. Once rebooted, your HTC One should be completely wiped and you should get Welcome message just like the day you got your phone. Sign in through the setup process then copy the CWM-SuperSU-v1.30.zip file in HTCOneRoot folder to anywhere on your HTC One’s internal storage.
Step 23. Power off your phone then re-boot into bootloader menu to fastboot mode like you did in Step 7.
Step 24. Type the following to install recovery:
For HTC One M7 (AT&T/T-Mobile/International/Unlocked/Developer)
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.0-m7.img
Then Type:
./fastboot-mac erase cache
Step 25. Choose “Bootloader” and hit the Power button.
Step 26. Choose “Recovery” and hit the Power button.
Step 27. Once in TWRP recovery, choose “Install”.
Step 28. Choose the file CWM-SuperSU-v1.30.zip.
Step 29. Swipe to flash this file. This will root your HTC One by installing SuperSU superuser app and SU binaries.
Step 30. Choose “Reboot System” to reboot.
Step 31. Once rebooted, you will find “SuperSU” app in your app drawer. Congratulations! You’ve successfully rooted your HTC One! You can verify full root by installing a rooted app like Titanium Backup app.
My question:
How do I now flash a new Firmware on it? I know I have to relock my bootloader and then i can flash the firmware.
But what are the concrete steps in terminal and on the phone to relock and flash firmeware and for expample Revoultion HD on it?
Here I found the firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823
I would be grateful for any help
Filip

You would download the Mini-SDK folder which has fastboot and adb files inside and place it on the desktop. You would then open up a terminal window and navigate to that folder "cd /Users/yourusername/Desktop/nameoftheSDKfolder and then you would type fastboot and/or commands just as you would on Windows. I think the command for locking the bootloader is fastboot oem lock.
This is how you setup fastboot and ADB on your Mac: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237
Read the guide carefully and it will be a piece of cake. Download the "android.zip" file attached in the thread and place the folder on Desktop, do not download the big Android-SDK file (the guide will instruct you to do that anyway).

platform doesn't matter
gaining S-off is all you need
once you do that change the CID to match the unbranded HTC One device and install that RUU
You might have to change the Model ID (MID) as well but that's easy too.
Just pick an S-off method, you'll probably want revOne since it is just terminal commands.

Thanks but is there a way to get Soff without HTC-DEV on a mac also?
Edit:
Sorry just saw that it is no problem with revone!

oh you need windows to install an RUU I just did it with VM ware and an old windows disc I had laying around

As mentioned above, you'd need Windows in order to install an RUU. Follow this guide in order to install a RUU, and since you're on HTC__001, download and install this RUU:

Here's the important part in the guide:

Going back to stock
What you need to know before going back to stock:
Your bootloader will never be "LOCKED" again. You can't restore it. You can only relock it.
"TAMPERED" text in bootloader will disappear only after proceeding method 2.
There are 3 main methods. All three will be described below.
Method 1 - only for users with .401 devices (for more info click here - RUU variants)
Visit this thread - [ROM] HTC One *STOCK* ROM
Download stock odexed version of most recent firmware and recovery.img
Move recovery.img to c:\mini-sdk location
Boot your device in recovery mode (power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "RECOVERY")
In main menu, select "install zip from sdcard" and "choose zip from sdcard".
Navigate to the location of stock ROM (zip) package and confirm flashing procedure.
After flashing process is complete, reboot the device in bootloader mode.
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You have now stock boot, system and recovery partitions. Time to relock your bootloader.
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock
Method 2 - flashing RUU (ROM Update Utility)
Visit this or this thread.
Find proper RUU for your device
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock
Flash RUU and follow on screen instructions.
You have now completely stock software on your device.
Method 3 - flashing nandroid backup
In custom recovery restore nandroid backup you did after flashing custom recovery for the first time.
If you performed nandroid backup before permanently flashing custom recovery, your stock recovery should be now flashed.
If you still have custom recovery, extract recovery.img from your nandroid backup.
Move recovery.img to c:\mini-sdk location
Connect your device to the PC
Boot your device in fastboot mode (like you did during unlocking bootloader - power off the device and turn it on using power + vol down buttons and select "FASTBOOT")
Open up command prompt ( Start > Run > type cmd and hit enter ). The window that appears is called Command Prompt. <click here to see the image>
Navigate to where you unzipped "mini-sdk" package (type in Command Prompt: cd c:\mini-sdk). Note: make sure the path is not c:\mini-sdk\mini-sdk
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
You have now stock boot, system and recovery partitions. Time to relock your bootloader.
In the Command Prompt type following command: fastboot oem lock

EDIT: You'll need to setup adb and fastboot on Mac in order to be able to use the terminal commands mentioned in the guide. This can help you do that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237
DO NOT download the Android SDK as it is not necessary, however scroll down in the guide and you'll find a small zip file containing a folder called android which you should extract to your Desktop.

Recovery Mode/Boot Screen Loop

Hi all,
I have an HTC One M8. I bought it used and run a AT&T sim on Straight Talk. Previous owner had rooted it. I was trying to get the 4.4 updates and Sense 6.0.
The phone was already running HD Revolution 12.1 and Android 4.2.2 with TeamWin Recovery Partition v2.5.0.0
I downloaded and installed Android_Revolution_HD-One_71.1.zip.
I've run it several ways:
1. First w/o wiping from TWRP. (Factory reset settings)
2. Installed w/o "Wiping Userdata Partition" and then tried "Wiping Userdata Partition" from the HD Revolution installer.
3. SuperUser by Koush checked.
4. Stops at setting permissions "set_metsdata_recusrsive: some changes failed."
5. Finish
6, Zip Install details say "no MD5 file found".
7. Reboot System and it tells me "Root permissions appear to be lost. Fix root permissions now?" Yes....
Then reboots into white Bootloader screen. Anything selected here takes me to the Recovery page. Anything selected from the REBOOT menu in TWRP takes me to the Bootloader screen.
When this is done it reboots into the white bootloader screen. Any option I pick there takes me to the TWRP recovery.
I'm stumped. Any help /bread crumbs would be appreciated.
Bootloader shows:
**TAMPERED**
**UNLOCKED **

I'm actually trying to mount the phone so I can see it from the PC update the TWRP. I downloaded openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-m7.img but can't see how to load it to the phone.
PC sees the phone from Device Manager as a Disk Drive but it doesn't show up as a drive under My Computer.
I have Minimal ADB and Fastboot. Am I on the right track?

Right now I'm just trying to get files to the phone. Am I on the right track?

You cannot install like that, they have to be flashed via bootloader.
Do you have ABD installed on your PC?
If not you have two options.
OPTION 1
This guide for Windows 7 machine, this is the quickest way IMHO
Download the adb files for your respective PC from here : http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Once you have downloaded the correct one for your PC (i.e. 32 or 64bit) you will be left with a zip FOLDER named something like this adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20130522.zip (this is for 64 bit machine), Unzip it somewhere on your pc
Locate the unzipped folder and you should have/see the following inside
• Eclipse
• Sdk
• SDFK manager .exe
Open up the sdk folder and you will find 6 folders inside, cut the 'platform-tools’ folder , then double click my computer and then enter the C: drive of your PC. Paste this folder here in the C: drive and rename it Andriod-adb.
Then right mouse click my computer and go properties, then go and click Advance system settings located on left hand side this will bring up system properties box, click the Environment Variables… tab (it will open further details) and locate the Environment Variables list scroll down until you find path, highlight this then click edit.
Click mouse in here and scroll right to the end after the last entry
Type the following ;C:\Android-adb (noting only adding the first ; if not already there), if it is already there just type C:\Android-adb. Then hit Ok then OK again and your ADB should now be successfully setup.
To test this
From the windows start button, and in the search programs and files box type cmd and enter, this should bring up a command window.
Plug in your device and type adb devices, you should see it locate your phone
OPTION 2
Or try this, extract the attached file to your desk. place your recovery img in here and in a blank spot here hold the shift key down and right mouse click this should bring up list allowing you to "open command prompt here" then follow instructions below..View attachment 2850273
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you have ADB working via either of the above sorted from a
1. Command prompt you should be able to type adb reboot boatloader, if you phone reboots into bootloader go to next step
2. Place the recovery image "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-m7.img " in the same adb folder as downloaded in option 2
3. Open a command prompt from within this folder and then type fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-m7.img
4. Once sent it should com back to prompt
5. Type fastboot erase cache, then when completed type fastboot reboot
Good luck

fixed!
I fixed it! Per the recommendation I was trying to upgrade TWRP to 2.6.3.3.
I plugged in the phone to the PC via USB and made sure the phone is in FASTBOOT USB mode from the bootloader menu.
I installed "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" on the PC. Running that from the command line (cmd.exe) you type "fastboot flash recovery " then drag the file in. (watch the youtube video "How to install TWRP recovery on the HTC One M8" by ROOTJUNKIE-it will make more sense). In my case it was the 2.6.3 TWRP.img file. That pushes the update to the phone. I already had the HD 71.1 zip on the phone. I installed that via the TWRP install and from there it booted up normally. Had to setup the phone again but my music/pics were still there. Thanks all for the help!

(XPERIA E1) Root and install cwm recovery.. Sony Xperia E1 D2005

OK Guys the e1 has been an absolute mare... to root or basically do anything with so heres a guide to finally root this thing and install a custom recovery WHOOO.......
OK FIRST THINGS FIRST... UNLOCK BOOT LOADER ABSOLUTE BEST WAY AND SAFEST WAY TO DO IT.........
Please note! It will only be possible to unlock the boot loader for certain releases. You can check if it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your device in the service menu by following the steps below:
In your device, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.
Go here and check whether your smartphone is on the “unlock bootloader” list or not. If your phone is not listed there it means that you cannot use this guide for unlocking the system
.
Also, on your handset type and dial: *#*#7378423#*#*; then go to “Service info -> Configuration -> Rooting Status” and check if the “Bootloader unlock allowed” says yes. If the “no” answer will be displayed then you will not be able to unlock the bootloader of your device.
Now, extract the file named “downloadinf.zip” (which has been downloaded before) on your computer.
Then, copy the obtained file (“android_winusb.inf”) to path c:\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver.
Click yes if asked to overwrite something.
Type *#06# on your phone and get the IMEI number; write it down as you will need it a little bit later.
Now, go here.
On the first page click on “Yes, I’m sure”.
Agree to Sony’s legal terms and then hit “I accept”.
On the next page enter your name, email and your device’s IMEI number and click on “Submit”.
An unlock code will now be offered; note it down.
Turn off your device and connect the same with the computer by pressing on the POWER BUTTON +vol down
Install the drivers on the path mentioned above (c:\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver).
Now, on your computer open command prompt: “start -> run -> type cmd”.
On the cmd window enter the following commands (one at a time): cd C:\android-sdk\platform-tools; fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version; fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY (replace key with the code obtained before).
That’s all, now the bootloader will be unlocked.
In the end, remove the USB cable and reboot your smartphone.
NOW OK WITH BOOT LOADER UNLOCKED ............
