[Q] New to rooting and flashing roms - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone sorry if this question has already been answered,
So I have a HTC One M7 and I want to install stock android or sense 6 (to remove my carrier boot and pre-loaded crapware), I still haven't decided because I'm unsure of some things. First of all if I do install stock android or sense 6 will I still be able to update to the latest version of android or sense 6 from the rom or do i need to periodically flash my rom to the latest version?

Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for One M7.

If you choose a custom rom that have ota update support then its possible to use OTA to update your custom rom. Some other custom rom will require to flash the new version from a custom recovery to update it.
i.e Cyanogenmod can be update from ota updates.
you wont be able to use official ota update from HTC unless you revert everything back to stock which isnt really important if you want to use custom roms.

If you have posted help when this post was still in the xda assist forum, that's why it was removed. Only members with the "xda assist" status are allowed to answer questions in that forum.

ota = over the air. ota update is when the update is pushed directly to your phone and you get a notification that there is a new update to install (like on official HTC roms or on custom roms that support that feature)
WHen there is no ota update capability, you won't be notified of new versions automatically and you'll need to flash the updated rom using a custom recovery.

If you want a custom Rom close to stock look, take a look at ARHD. It's easy to use and the dev is great.

Hello everyone, im using a htc one m7 (wls) sprint. I upgraded the device via usb from android version 4.2.2 to 5.1 and since then my imei, baseband, UICC profile, PRL, and profile has been unknwon. The phone doesnt detect SIM. I'm in Nigeria where i cant find the sprint carrier network shop or oulet. Can anyone please help me out? i've tried using sim unlock helper by viper boy, still it doesnt work, maybe because there's no imei/baseband. I've also tried other OS including custom roms none works, the phone bricks (showing a white screen with htc written and then reboots on its own). The phone has been down since october 2017 till date still working on it but nothing positive comes out.

You probably flashed a GSM rom to the device.
You should mostly be looking in the Sprint m7 forum for appropriate roms and specific help with that model of the m7.

Unrooting Questions!!!

Hey i am asking these questions on beahalf of fellow rooters
1)By rooting the phone, we are still using Stock rom except that we have SUPERUSER PERMISSIONS already, is that true?
2)To unroot our phone, run RUU roms:
RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_47.39.35.09_7.08.35.21_release_130330_signed.exe
or...
RUU_Legend_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.31.707.2_Radio_47.26.35.04_7.05.35.26L_release_121965_signed.exe
depending on ur location, asia or other countries.
3)Before i rooted my phone, my firmware is 1.31.707.3
but the RUU rom as stated above is "..WWE_1.31.707.2_Ra.."
is it the same? if not, how do i get my default rom back?
4)After i have rooted my HTC legend, there would be a Stock OTA update by HTC to Android 2.2 froyo. Will the OTA update still take place, or do i have to unroot the phone first?
5)Is there a way to backup my current stock rom: 1.31.707.3 ? if yes, how?
Thank You

well on those i can answer now:
No1: if u use the stock ruu rom u will NOT have superuser permissions, however there is an "Almost stock" Rom based on this RUU that i currently run and it's really smooth and fast and i have alot more RAM free however i have a problem with facebook contacts so my contact pictures wont sync and i can't link fb contacts to my google contacts. (But i can't really say it is because of the rom or if it is fb that has made some changes)
No4: when u use the "almost stock" Rom the OTA updates are disabled, if they are disabled on the non-root RUU i can't really say, but i don't think they are disabled on that one
Ok thank you for answers
If I understand well, If I want use app2sd I must use a rooted stock ROM, I can not use the HTC stock ROM.
I will search more informations about future OTA update from HTC (in particulary Froyo update) and may be I will try root for my legend.
Regards
BTW, any new information on the release date for Froyo from HTC w/Sense?

Actually no.. u need the Rom that they have modded and call "almost stock" and choose the one with apps2sd in it.. OR u need to wait for the HTC stock Froyo update..

not any official news, HTC said "in the beginning of Q3"
many speculations have been posted regarding what they mean but many people say that it will come in september or october.. we can't do anything but wait for info from HTC or for the update itself.
Ok thanks. I'm very happy with the Legend, so no rush updating it to Froyo.

Thats where my knowledge on this issue runs out my friend. Have you searched every thread to do with gaining back S-ON? It may be worth traulling through in case there's something in there which may help you. Even googling it or having a look on you tube...there's loads about gaining S-OFF so there might be something in there about S-ON.
How to revert back to HTC Sense for Incredible S ?
Hello,
As testing, I installed the latest CyanogenMod ROM on my Incredible S. But I am not at all liking the interface. Are there any ways to revert back to the custom HTC Sense ?
I saw the thread "Incredible S shipped ROMs collection" at 'http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033922'. But I'm not sure on how to do this and which ROM I need to install.
Can you please help me on this ? I miss HTC Sense a lot
Thank you,

I know your pain my friend as I am a fan of Sense, but fear not! There are a number of ROMs using both Sense 3.0 and Sense 3.5 out there at the moment all located in the development section, or nicely packaged in one place here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136463. You would install these the same way you installed CyanogenMod. I am currently running Nikhil - TriNity Sense 3.5 which is currently in the process of being updated, so you may want to wait for that if you fancy giving 3.5 a go, if not then Virtuous Unity is also very good, although again expecting an update. Bslim's ROM is also sporting 3.5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1265980
If you want to go back to your original stock ROM and did not do a Nandroid backup of it before flashing Cyanogen, then you can download the stock RUU that relates to your version of android and the radio you currently have. Look at your phone info if your are unsure of this. You then download it to your sd card and flash it the same way as all the others. If you did do a backup just restore this and hay presto!
Hope this helps.
Hello VaderXI,
Thanks a lot for replying...
I had done a backup of sense prior flashing cyanogenmod. But while trying to restore from revolutionary, its says md5sum mismatch. Not sure what happened.
I'm planning to use the ROM at 'http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275609' but the problem is its in Arabic. I hope i can change it when the phone is booted up and it asks for the settings.
How can I get the radio version from my phone ? IIRC, mine was using android 2.3.3 which was the latest version for HTC Incredible S. Why does the available Incredible S roms show up as .exe files ? Are these flashed as the same way as other ROMs ?
To be frank, I'm having trouble detecting the rom versions from the list in 'http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033922'. How can i find something for android 2.3.3 Incredible S which i bought in India.
If the ROM you are using is in english, can you please send me the link for that please.
Thank you,

Cant help with the md5sum mismatch I'm afraid. Did you wipe all your data before flashing i.e. cache and dalvik cache ect?
The ROM u want to use is available in English, like u said just select it in when u first reboot.
U can find ur radio version under settings-about phone-software info-more-baseband version. Match this with the RUU in the thread and ur sorted...it will obviously be a gingerbread version. Yes they are flashed the same way as other ROMS.
All the ROMs are available in English. If they say "full Arabic", that's because Arabic is not always available on ROMs and the developer wants you to know that it is in theirs. The ROM i am currently using is this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301785, but it is currently being updated and the download is not available.
All the best.

Stuck on 4.1.2

for any reason I am not receiving any OTA update an still on 4.1.2, my phone is factory sim unlocked; I do not want to change anything else on my phone just receive oficial updates. As far as I know I need to unlock, S-OFF, change CID and MID. I have been reading many diferent posts but allways refer to install custom roms; is this realy necesary just to receive OTAs?, if so, where can I find one for my version?.
Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks for your response, My phone for the last 4 years was an iphone and never need to deal with this type of issues so I am really new doing this; could you tell me how to install this ROM?, I believe that the first step is unlock and then gain S-OFF, but don't know how to go further.

Use Vomers s-off guide. It is located in the Htc one development forum. First thing is unlock your bootloader on HTC's site. Make sure you update your firmwares at the end of the vomer guide too. This will update your touchscreen, radio etc.. Flashing roms does not do that. Remember, unlocking bootloader wipes your phone, so backup first!
Whoa. The OP stated that he doesn't want to modify the phone, just receive the official OTA updates. Leading him down the path of unlocking bootloader, flashing recovery and ROM is just going to lead to a 'Help me I need to get my phone back to stock or else I have no warranty!' thread. And specifically, these changes will prevent the OP from applying the update. OTA updates can only be applied to phones in a stock state.
Have you confirmed that there is an update for HTC__332? I know that the US skipped 4.2.2 and some carriers are only just rolling out a 4.3 update. Check with your mobile phone company or wherever you got the phone. You just might need to be patient. For example, my phone won't be getting a 4.3 update until next month.
Now if you decide are impatient, then you can have some fun installing firmware and ROMs But always, always take a backup

Yes you are correct, I just don´t have enought knowledge to deal with any possible problem on my phone. I don´t know how to confirm if there is any update for this CID, I asked some days ago to HTC support but they didn´t provide me any good information, all they said is that according to the imei number this phone is factory unlocked (no carrier logo or apps) and the origin is USA; due to my work I am using this phone with different carriers in diferent countries, I got it from a web store.
Thanks a lot for your response, I thing the best decision for me is wait for the OTA and learn more before start to do some crazy things.

Yes exactly the same here, same automatic camera update, same new orange camera icon; also no tv app, according to the installed apps list sense tv is there but the icon to launch it is not.
I really feel like I did a big mistake moving from iOS to Android, I never needed to be asking for updates before because they just came easy and fast, also the phone was out of the box with all apps and utilities included, but, it is what it is, I'm just waiting for the next model and for sure I'll be back to iOS.

Okay. I am also new to android. It's my first android phone and I was so excited.but al this update thing makes me crazy. Sometimes I think maybe I should have bought a s4 since it's a more favorable phone worldwide. But I just fell in love with the design of the HTC ONE.But the tv app is not available every where. It depends on your country.(I am in Suriname) I read it on HTC website itself. But if got an update to android 4.3 please let me know.(same goes for me)

I did a search on your CID and yeah, it did sounds very strange. I wonder why they omitted the TV app. Bear in mind, this phone is only 6 months old. We were getting ios updates a year apart?
My first post wasn't intended to discourage you from unlocking and playing with custom ROMs, just a word of caution and to prepare before jumping in.
There's quite a few people who would be envious of your lack of updates because you are on hboot 1.44 which means you can get S-OFF and gives you a lot more flexibility.

Ok guys I did everything according to the provided links and BOOOOMM it works perfect, right now I am running 4.2.2 WWE version, TV app is there and the phone is working smooth.
Now I am re locked, no tampered and still S-OFF, I believe this will not be a problem to keep receiving OTAs, just waiting for 4.3 release for this version.
I just noted that now I have a red letters warning in the TELL HTC screen saying something like "this is a test device not intended for sale............", I think that this is because still S-OFF and don't know if this could be a problem, I would appreciate if anybody knows how to get rid of this warning, NOTE this warning is not in the boot screen
Thakns again

Sounds like your region is following the same path as USA. They skipped 4.2.2 and went 4.3 earlier than others but with Sense 5.
Yes indeed. But I am still very pleased that i got the update without doing any unlock /root/ ect stuff. :thumbup: just got to wait for 5.5

If you are still s-off and on uk wwe, just change cid to HTC__Y13. (fastboot oem writecid HTC__Y13. Youll receive 4.3 with sense 5.5 (3.62.401.1). After update go back to your previous cid, i guess htc__001...

[Q] Several Questions Please Help

I bought an HTC One (M7) second hand. The previous owner had rooted the device among other things.
It's currently working on Rogers network.
Can you help me find out what the original software version/carrier was on it?
I was thinking of using the latest Rogers RUU but I don't want to wreck anything.
Is there anything that may hinder me from using the RUU?
The phone shows, S-On, *Tampered*, *Unlocked*
Please give me any advice you can and I can clarify anything you need.
I have experience flashing roms on other phones this one seems more complicated.
My main goal is to have a stable Android 4.4+ on my device.
Thanks!

You're saying I should leave it alone and just flash a custom Rom vs a stock one?
I actually like that idea.
But, if I wanted to go stock in the future could I just use the RUU or would I need to do some other changes first?

Yeah just install a custom rom.
I need to go back to stock for warranty still trying to figure out what to do execty.
there are some guides on how to do that. but since you have a second hand I don't think you will have to ever go back to stock for warranty issues

Help me enable Gesture on Sprint HTC One (M7)

Hi Team
I am looking for capacitive wake gesture kernel for my Sprint HTC M7.
Guys I tried installing ElementalX-sprint-m7-13.1 but the phone kept on rebooting post successful installation.
I tried changing the frequency and stuff but to no outcome.
I am attaching the software information screenshot of my phone.
Please please please help me. Consider me as a rookie and provide the complete procedure wherever possible.
Thanks

Hey there,
Looks like you're running a 4.4.2 ROM. Have you tried using a 4.4.3 ROM? I have no idea if 13.1 works with sense 6 4.4.2. Also, your kernel version doesn't have "ElementalX-13.10" in it, which is concerning.
I'm running a 4.4.3 ROM with EX 18.0 with no problems.
Enabling wake gestures can be done in the aroma installer, which I'm sure you've encountered.
Please guide

Thanks Sauprankul.
I don't think Sprint has released 4.4.3 for M7 yet. Meanwhile what do you mean by "Also, your kernel version doesn't have "ElementalX-13.10" in it, which is concerning."
Should I go for ElementalX-m7-14.12-Sense as shown in the screenshot? Would my phone with the specifications support it?

Bro looks like you're downloading from the m7ul site.
You need something that specifically says "sprint" or "m7spr" in it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2295596
Download 13.1 from here. I would recommend never downloading anything from anywhere unless an XDA thread in the Sprint forum directly linked you to it, because flashing something for an intl device can brick your phone.
Also you're right about the sprint not releasing 4.4.3 thing, but the international port is available.
Please help

Hi Sauprankul
The link you gave has the same kernel version I downloaded the first time - ElementalX-m7-Sprint-13.10. It doesn't work.
Maybe there is something else I need to do.

See, the problem is, I honestly don't know which ROM goes with which kernel. I would suggest that you upgrade to a 4.4.3 stock ROM and get the latest EX 18 kernel from the xda thread, because I know that combination works. Sorry, mate, but that's the best advice I can offer.
Elemental X 14.12 and Sense 6 Toolbox, if you're running a 4.4.2. rom. The combination of the two will work. (make sure you enable wake gestures in Sense 6 Toolbox) I did it for a while, but gave it up as it ate at my battery life more than I liked.
