[Q] Want to install OTA but... - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First of all, I'm a total noob in HTC world (coming from samsung and nexus line). HTC One is my first HTC device. I'm really in need of a detailed explanation right now, and I know my kind of topic might have been posted somewhere in this forum but believe me, I've done so much research (google-ing, searching on XDA forum) most of them is quite 'off-topic' and not exactly as what I need to do.
So here's my noob question...
I'm on STOCK rooted HTC One atm, with software number of 1.29.707.3 and using ElementalX kernel. Got TWRP recovery installed. And I want to install and OTA update of 1.29.707.16... So what do I need to do actually? I know custom recovery can't be use to install OTAs so, does reflashing the stock recovery and removing root will make this work? or do I need to do the total "going back to stock" step like relocking bootloaders etc? It's driving me nuts searching for this kind of solution...

You need to install the stock recovery and kernel (just in case) and you're good to go.

the kernel is not mandaroty right?

Is a correct ota for each region required, or can we flash any? For example could I flash any ota on my Australian one?

OTAs are restricted to their CID's so don't go around flashing OTA's from phone on a different region

Right. thanks for the reply bro.

[Q] What am i doing wrong? HTC Raider

OK First and foremost i would like to say Thank You XDA Developers, you have helped me figure out ALOT about my phone.
First lets just say I'm a noobie at this (aren't all beginners?) and i did try the search function but couldn't find anything . if someone does find, please link me too it, it will be greatly appreciated.
OK now back to the problem, the thing im trying to do is install a custom ROM onto my HTC Raider LTE from rogers, i have rooted/unlocked/ installed CWM recovery on it and my phone is S-ON. this is where things get difficult for me, i don't know where to go from here, i have already downloaded DarkRaider_v1.5.0 and virtuous_inquisition-v4.0.2 just to see which one is better but i do not know what to do with these files. i have booted from recovery and installed from zip but i guess that's not right cuz i tried it three time and had to re-install the stock rogers ROM 3 times due to it Boot looping. Thanks in advance and sorry for any annoyance i may have caused
can a mod please Delete This Post it was my first one but i realized i posted it in the wrong section Thanks
i belive rogers is still on gb so you cant flash ics roms unless you make your phone s-off by doing this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1576668 and then this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612685 or wait till rogers updates your phone to ics
Oh so atm i could only flash GB roms is that correct?

If your hboot has not been updated to the ics hboot then no you can't run ics roms
Only gb

Oh , so in order to have an ics Rom I must upgrade my hboot to ics the flash the boot IMG and then flash the zip file from recovery?

Correct and the only way to do that is wait for rogers to release ics or go to the links I posted earlier and do what they say

Is there a way to find out are these two the same? Will I be able to install stock rom because mine is some other one as u can c from picture? I'm not that good in these thing,(I know how to flash that's all) maybe some adb command

Is there a way you could share your rom with me? This is the original stock rom version I had on my tab 2, but flashed over it without backing up.
Cheers.
I am a little confused on how to check what the firmware is.
Is it the build number as shown in the settings/about phone (attached) or is what Kies state when tab is connected

Just received an OTA update on my 3113, but could not install it as it does not work with CWM recovery.
Based on the info message, it's 4.0.4 based + some app updates.
Base on the files inside the update, version should be P3113UEBLG2.

(I think) if your not rooted the ota update should self install. You can't flash an ota through CWM but can through Odin.

No, SIM lock has nothing to do with what Rom the phone is running. Please ask in Q/A about SIM locks.

Does this rom have a "new" Radio/Baseband Firmware included ?
How good is this version?? I mean... quadrant or antutu score, I have the latest retail brazil firmware and is an excellent one, the only problem is that I can't get root.
matt
as it seems that my phone is not elligible to be rooted according to the motorola website does this mean that if I use this "routine" it will unlock my phone and root it so I can remove waste apps etc
excuse the ignorance but I want to be sure
thanks
whats the news for that rom?
Matt, any comments about flashing this over .3900 gb retail to try and work around the current inability to upgrade to 4.1.2?
How would it effect a currently unlocked / rooted version? We wouldnt be digging a deeper hole would we?

For upgrading and downgrading you should be using the Homemade fastboots.
Hi, when I flashed this I got bootloop - so for me at least, DO wipe data. Also, root seems to appear, but every app on my phone complains that there is no root. I'm trying to find what root we used for ICS ...
UPDATE: Ok I uninstalled all superuser material and tried the ICS mototofail (locked bootloader, I didn't realise the BL would be relocked after downgrading) and some apps are accepting root status -some still say no root-. That is progress.
Hai, Anyone can upload Stock 81.5.31002 GB ICS say in homemade fastboot or CWM? Thanks.
is that stock kernel have a "2way callrecording patch" inside ?
Needs reup, unless you can point me someone else that doesn't 404

This is a question that would be better directed at HTC. Sofar, HTC hasn't released any RUUs for this phone. Maybe they will, maybe they won't, we have no way of knowing in advance.
However, there is a dump of the stock ROM and the stock recovery available over in the Android Development section which should be enough for you to return to stock; there's not much point in flashing anything else on this phone (and you most probably won't even be able to).

//please excuse the internet reference if you dont get it
Jokes aside, a stock rooted ROM allows you to do just that, only there's less hassle. Even though it's. a rooted ROM, it will behave exactly the same as stock Sense unless you want to install root apps. Please please please don't RUU to stock. Just use the Stock ROM and save yourself some trouble.
