or if you have the ROM.zip extracted from ruu, u can flash it from fastboot using fastboot flash zip rom.zip
where rom.zip will in ur pc
without root that wont be possible! only can try with a stock rom.zip extracted from official ruu.
I also have the same problem. My phone is not root. But i unlock my bootloader. I can't see my SD card. Becuase i flash rom that have different hboot.
My hboot version is 1.25.0.0 but that rom is 1.28.0.0.
I try to flash the system image by fastboot but it show error that file image is too big.
I would like to know how to create the system image to flash by fastboot. how big capacity that i can flash by fastboot.
Now i can use phone only for calling.
If anyone have any system image file that support hboot 1.25.0.0. Please let me know where i can download.
Thanks in advance.

on 1.25 recovery working with usb mounting than you can simply install custom rom without messing up.
Just install appropriate recovery.

I don't know how to do usd mounting.
I can't put customer ROM in SD card because my mobile don't see it.
For usb mouting. you mean i can flash it from PC by USD mouting, right?
Would you please give more detail how to do it?
boot in to recovery:
connect phone to pc
- mount and storage
- mount USB.
On PC you can now add your rom.zip to flash it.
If mounting don't work its mean you have hboot 1.28 and you need to flash this recovery.

Hi all
I recently rooted my new HTC One. However, due to issues with the Barclays Mobile app not liking rooted devices (I've tried to get around this using instructions from this forum, but no joy) I now want to unroot.
My modelid is PN0710000, and my cidnum is H3G_001. There's no RUU for this, so I located a CWM Nandroid backup zip (courtesy of BugsyLawson and shrubz).
Am I correct in thinking that my route to unroot is as follows? ...
1. Copy downloaded file to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/ location on device. (Do I leave as zip, or unzip it in this location?)
2. Unzip downloaded file on my laptop
3. Restart device in Fastboot mode
4. On laptop, flash the recovery and boot of the file.zip (i.e. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img THEN fastboot flash boot boot.img)
5. Restart device in Recovery mode
6. Flash the zip file in CWM
7. Restart device in Fastboot mode
8. Relock bootloader (i.e. fastboot oem lock)
Will that work?
Thanks all...I'm new to all this, but learning fast (I hope!)

Just unroot the rom that's currently on the phone. SuperSU has a full unroot option in its settings.
Then stock recovery can be flashed via fastboot, but not really necessary.

Ah, that's correct, because /system partition is write protected after boot.
Flash the attached unroot-flashable.zip in CWM or TWRP, it will delete the su binary and Superuser.apk system app, which will unroot the OS.

Hi there.
So I wanted to install cyanogenmod on my htc incredible s. So i rooted my phone without big problems. Then I tried to install cyanogenmod through 4ext recovery via zip file. And now all I have is a static white screen. I tried over 10 ruu's that supposed to be installed from pc and phone. I tried another recovery, custom OS, hard reset through recovery and bootloader, goldcard and some other things that I cant even remember. I also tried to lock bootloader, unlock it, reset root etc.
android version before brick was 4.0.4, sense 3.6.
vivo s-on
hboot 2.02.0002
radio 3831.18.00.11_M
Also when i install cm or some other custom OS through 4ext zip install it says OK but when i reload nothing changes.
Help?

With an unlocked bootloader 2.02.0002, you need to extract the boot.img from the CM ROM's zip.file and manually flash it in FASTBOOT USB mode.
You cannot simply flash a custom ROM from 4EXT recovery when you only have an unlocked bootloader. There are plenty of sticky threads in this forum that document the procedure you need to follow. You need to read, study and understand before you try modding your phone.

The ERROR 131 means that you are trying to flash an official RUU for a different carrier/region. You need to create a goldcard in order to successfully flash a RUU.
Why don't you try flashing a custom ROM from recovery and then flash the boot.img file.

OK, after re-reading your posts, here are some additional tips:
When flashing a custom ROM from 4EXT, please make sure you do a full system wipe and then clear both Cache and Dalvik cache before you flash the ROM.
After you flash the ROM, then you need to immediately flash the ROM's boot.img file contained in the zip file using FASTBOOT USB mode.
As for trying to flash 10 different RUU's there ERROR 131 indicates that you have a bad goldcard.

If you are using twrp, try "adb push file.zip /data/media/0"
Im not sure what you are trying to do, load a new recovery? You would do that from bootloader with "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"

Hi an0ther,
I am running ARHD v22 with no problems. Then I try to install V30 in recovery mode - from zipfiles. After that, it only run a cicles in HTC boot logo and recovery mode. I start over again form 1st step to relock my HTC, flash recovery.img etc.
Now, my HTC only work with old recovery.img and ARHD v22. If i try 2 other recovery.img event with ARHD v22 is still not works.
I'm not sure exactly what is going on. We might have a language barrier here. You might have a corrupt Rom file. You said relock, not sure if you are talking about the bootloader which you don't need to do. Unless you are trying to flash stock ruu and you are s-on.

I am S-On all stock except for the recovery, I had TWRP so I can make backups. Now I want to install back the stock recovery so i can upgrade but I don't seem to find it anywhere. I managed to find the RUU but the recovery image is not inside the "rom.zip" on my Temp folder when I run it. These are the only files that it shows:

just run the Lollipop RUU, same as the OTA but its the full thing rather than an OTA: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-t-mobile/news/ follow the manual update instructions, download is at the bottom.
edit: it will wipe your phone, so backup anything you want to keep first.

Seanie, thank you for your reply. I need the stock recovery because precisely I was trying to avoid wiping my phone. I am just a very small step away to be able to update without wiping, I just can't find this stock recovery. Why is it that the recovery.img it is not inside the rom.zip RUU? Am I missing something?
Currently I flashed the stock recovery 6.10.5310.9 and i tried to install the OTA but when it gets to the recovery it looks like it starts installing moving the green line a little bit but soon after I get a red triangle and stops, which I am assuming it is because i do not have the proper recovery.
Any help so i do not need to wipe will be greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!

ok, you cant take it out of the RUU.zip as its an encrypted RUU, so take it out of the OTA.
download the OTA as normal, but select install later, then plug your phone into the computer and copy the OTA.zip to your computer from your phone, its in the internal storage, downloads folder, its just a zip file, so once its on your computer, open it with WinRAR or whatever you use to open zip files and in there you will see firmware.zip, open that too and take out recovery.img, flash it like any other recovery, then reboot and try and update again.
If the OTA then fails again, it will be down to modified system files or root, you will have no choice but to backup and use the full RUU.

the OTA will check to see if you have 6.10.513.10 or 7.18.513.2 recovery, cant be anything earlier than those 2, current or previous, recovery update by the OTA will just be skipped.

I see! Great news! Good to know. So the OTA can be install with a newer stock recovery (matching the OTA I presume).
I am currently at work without my cell phone but I will try this, as soon as I get back home and post the results.
One last thing, to flash the stock recovery is as simple as "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (or whatever the recovery file .img name is), correct?
I do not need to lock the bootloader in order to upgrade using the OTA as long as everything else is still stock. ...I do have root though, but I also read that this shouldn't be a problem either, correct?
Thank you sooo much!

No need to lock the bootloader for an ota, root might be a problem as it modifies system files, just give it a go, and yes, the flash of the recovery is the same as any other recovery file.

Seanie, all went as expected! It worked. I was able to extract the recovery.img file from the firmware.zip inside the 7.18 OTA zip file that was downloaded to the internal storage. Then proceed to flash it as any other recovery with fastboot. Afer that, the OTA update installed with o problem. Having root did not mattered. I did have to root it again though.
Thank you so much for your support!!! :good:
Worked for me as well, thank you.

I accidently erased all my data using the custom recovery program called TWRP. I went to Wipe and pressed format data. Can you guys please help me fix it? Thanks
What ROM are you trying to use?

You will have to push the zip with TWRP recovery and the command line. Are you S-Off?
Also thread titles like this is an easy way to get it ignored or even deleted before anyone can look at it.
I take it he's s-on he's just attempted to root
Try fastbooting the boot.img in terminal on your PC..

OK no worries I'm at work atm so can't really help yet, but if you push I ROM zip on to your device using twrp whatever ROM you us sense or aosp follow instruction's from the thread once you flash the ROM. Go back into bootloader and flash the boot.img you extracted from the ROM.zip file

Unlike some other HTC devices, the M7 does not requires to flash the boot.img separately after flashing a rom. Boot partition is not secured and is flashed automatically when flashing a rom from custom recovery. OP has formatted data partition which mean he have no OS (no rom) installed. So flashing the kernel (boot.img) will not solve his problem.

1) Your twrp version is outdated. Download twrp 2.8.6.0 for M7 and flash it:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
2) Boot your device in twrp main menu, with the 2.8.6.0 version you'll be able to see your phone storage on your computer like if it was a usb drive. Drag and drop your rom.zip to your phone internal storage (My computer --> One --> Internal storage --> your_rom.zip here)
Then in twrp select "install" browse you phone storage and select "your_rom.zip" and swipe to bottom slider to install. Once done reboot your device and voila.
If you don't want to use a custom rom and you only want to use your stock rom and have root, you could simply flash the 7.19.401.102 ruu to get your OS back and then reflash latest TWRP (2.8.6.0) so you can root your stock rom. If this is what you want I can give you step by step instruction for this too, just ask if you need.
