Hello,
I recently rooted my M8 and have run into difficulties trying to run the GPE 5.0.1 ROM. I have TWRP installed and have no issues installing the GPE Rom itself, however, when I try to use WIFI the radio doesnt turn on and is unresponsive. Doing a little research I found it was due to my old firmware. So I tried to install the newest Firmware from the thread on M8 Android Dev, but when I try to use the RUU and the FUU, my phone is not recognized by the software. I tried to flash via HBOOT and it just asks me to reset my phone and doesn't do anything. Since I was S-ON I made sure I was using the full firmware for all of the methods, but it wouldn't work. So I tried to S-OFF my phone to see if that would help, but Firewater has been discontinued and I can't get Sunshine to run on my rom, so I am unable to S-OFF. I was wondering if anyone had any advice as to how I could get my phone S-OFF as well as to the new firmware.
Thank you.
You have to be running a stock rom when you use Sunshine

Hi. I had my HTC One unlocked, S-Off, Rooted and I was running ViperOne Rom and everything was running fine but I wanted to return to 100% stock so I could get my 40GB Google Drive. But now I can't get S-Off again, i've unlocked my bootloader and i've tried to S-Off using Rumrunner and various other ways with cmd but it fails everytime. Has anyone else had this problem or am I missing something. Cheers Alex.

I need to restore my phone to a version of stock android (either an actual stock RUU or Android Revolution or whatever) so that I can get to the UICC option to turn off my SIM card (this setting is not available in CyanogenMod apparently).
Because I am on a newer firmware and because I am S-ON I do not seem to be able to install any of the (mostly older) RUUs I have found. Any suggestions? Is there an RUU for 4.06.651.9 that I am not seeing? Is there another way to roll back my OS to allow an older RUU to be installed? Another option altogether? A way to S-OFF while on CM?
Thanks for your help

you can use this then take the OTA updates
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_sprint_3-04-651-2-zip/
Is this the 3.04.651.2 RUU? If so, I already have a copy, and when I attempt to run the ARUwizard I get Error 155. Most likely I am doing something wrong. I just assumed that since I am already on 4.06.651.9 that the problem was I couldn't install the older 3.04.651.2 version. Thoughts?

This is exactly the same issue I'm experiencing. Well, now I'm even beyond this point... I am only able to boot the phone to the bootloader.
Edit: I am relocked as I am S-ON. I can't update firmware as the signature check fails. Flashing the 3.04.651.2 zip has a signature verify fail, as well.
Hope this helps

If you can still boot to bootloader your phone is fine. You should still have recovery (TWRP?) on your phone I assume. Regardless here are some steps that should help:
1. Figure out if you are S-ON (is found on the bootloader screen)
2. If you are S-ON, try Rumrunner to get S-OFF (just google it). This will allow you to install any RUU regardless of your firmware.
3. If Rumrunner doesn't work or you don't want to go to S-OFF then download the 4.06 RUU here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658910
The problem is your firmware is ahead of the corresponding firmware of the 3.X release. As such you have to install from the newer RUU.

Actually, it seems that the phone is wiped; I can't boot my recovery. As a result, I can't really get S-OFF. I'll try the 4.06 RUU, but would it make a difference that it's .4 and not .9?
EDIT: I'm talking out of my ass right now. Long day, and this isn't helping. I am figuring it out; unlocked the bootloader, and now things seem to be functional. Well, except CM doesn't seem to want to boot any longer, but that shouldn't matter for long.
EDIT 2: How can I get S-OFF without enabling debugging? As of right now, CM is just in a boot loop.
Sim Unlock Sprint HTC One Max
I almost cannot believe how many different ROMs I've tried to flash after wiping out my original ROM.
Bootloader unlocked and rooted I managaged to relock the bootloader while trying to fastboot flash a stock ROM, which also failed.
Beleive it or not, I've have found a couple that will boot up with my Sprint HTC One Max . I was able to re-unlock the bootloader, flash a new rom and even recover user data I had backed up to my PC via adb backup.
All this for not, as I still cannot find a Sense ROM that will flash on my device and allow me to unnlock the Sim via Sim Unlock Helper.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hello all I am a noob getting into the game, I am trying to get my m7 to update with no luck. I have an AT&T branded One running on versio 1.26.502.15 . I have tried all the little tricks to get it to find them, but nadda. I have been reading into all the resets, RUUs, and OTAs and honestly I'm just more confused. From what I read about manually installing OTAs, I haven't been able to find the right one to upgrade my version. I just want to get up to date with Android and Sense. If anybody could just point me in the right direction I would be so thankful. If there's any other info needed I'll get it up here.

do you have adb and fastboot installed on your computer? If yes, post the output of fastboot getvar all except the imei # and the serialno #
at&t phone must be connected to the at&t network to receive ota update, are you on at&t?
manually installing ota update require s-off, your phone is currently s-on. good new is its "pretty easy" to s-off on hboot 1.44, ok maybe not that easy for a new user but you should be able to s-off if you need to by following revone s-off guide.
if you are not on at&t network:
easiest solution (imo):
unlock the bootloader (this void warranty)
flash twrp recovery 2.6.3.3
flash the guru reset rom 5.12.502.2
or
more complicated but better (imo):
unlock bootloader
flash twrp recovery 2.6.3.3
root
s-off using revone
flash the latest ruu (4.18.502.7)
manually flash ota updates from 4.18.502.7 to 5.12.502.2
update issue
Thank you for the info I don't have adb fastboot installed guess I'll need to start there, I am using the new cricket gsm network which if I'm correct uses AT&T towers but I guess that's why I was unable to get the updates because I'm not actually on AT&T. Will I still need to get s-off with the first solution or not ? Thanks again for the help, I'll get on it and let you know how it goes.

Could you tell me where to find the 5.12.502.2 reset Rom, I went to HTC guru and could not find it in the list, also what are your thoughts on the twrp 2.7, I read a few comments about it and seemed like people were having trouble with it on their One's, I wondered if it would be better to have the new version or if I should just stick with the other one. Thanks again for the help.

better to stick with 2.6.3.3 or 2.6.3.4 unless you want to experiment. there is a charging bug with 2.7.0.0 and it looks like there are also some other bugs with 2.7.1.0 for flashing roms, not sure if it was solved in 2.7.1.1. use 2.6.3.3 or .3.4 and youll be fine.
and no, you dont need s-off to use the reset rom. but a reset rom will not update all the firmware, you'll get an updated rom(software), on the hardware side, only recovery and radio will be updated (if you choose to flash stock radio and recovery at the reset rom installation). hboot will not be updated using this solution.
do a nandroid backup of your current config, just in case you need to restore if something goes wrong.

After lots and lots of research into this before doing I've decided to go with viperone custom Rom, if I understand it right I won't have to mess with s-off for this,please correct me if I'm wrong. But I have found some conflicting instructions, I read somewhere that I will have to copy the boot.img from the Rom and flash it before flashing the Rom then others without that step, so I'm confused, I wanna male sure I do this right the first time. Also are there any files that I need to have updated before flashing a 4.4 sense 6 custom Rom or will it all be included in the Rom?
Thank you

Hi there
Been a long time since I've posted and hope I'm in the right place. Did a search for my question and wound up here.
My phone is stock and s-on, I haven't done anything to it, it's exactly the same as when it came out the box, but I haven't been able to update the software in settings>about>software updates for a while now, it just keeps coming back with download unsuccessful. Any ideas how I can sort this, or do it another way?
Thanks in advance

Hi all,
When I first got my M7, I unlocked it and installed TWRP to make backups. I had experience doing this with my sensation and followed the guides posted here. When the Sense 6 update came out, I wanted to update, so I was tried using REVONE to remove the TAMPERED and UNLOCKED but it set it to RELOCKED. Apparently, it wasn't compatible with the android version 4.4.2, which I realized too late.
Now, I'm trying to get S-OFF and unlock the bootloader so I can flash an 4.2 rom, then use REVONE and go back to stock. I've tried using nkk71's SuperGUIDE to returning 100% back to stock, but neither Firewater nor Rumrunner will work with my device (HBOOT 1.56) - they both finish early and tell me I'm out of luck.
What's the next possibility? I'm in Asia with the TW stock rom. I can probably bring it to the store and let them handle it, but it'll take up to 7 days to get it completely back to stock. Is there anything else I can try before doing that?
tl;dr: Phone is Stock ASIA TW rom & recovery, HBOOT 1.56, *TAMPERED*, *RELOCKED*, and *S-ON*. Can't flash OTA or get S-OFF with Firewater.
EDIT: Nevermind. Seem to have soft-bricked my phone while attempting to install ARHD. Now no OS and can't load anything except TWRP. ADB Sideload doesn't work, ADB push doesn't work. Guess I'll bring it to the store and see if they can fix it.

If it's not too late, I have been in this situation before. I bought an OTG cable and downloaded a stock ROM guru reset. From there, I successfully S-OFFed my device with HBOOT 1.56 using the firewater method.
Hope this helps

Firewater is discontinued and will not work, rumrunner isn't for hboot1.57.
Sunshine is the only method available for 1.57
Hello, i have the Problem and Smilex posted for me.
The thing is, that sunshine makes some checks wether it is possible or not.
But alll sense-roms are crashing after teo minutes. So i cant usw sunshine. Only if i flash cm it doesnt crash. But i think it crashes because of the unknown imei und baseband.
So i ask wether anybody know a rom which is not as near to sense as Android HD Revolution and the others but use a kernel which is sunshine possible and dont let my phone reboot each two minutes...
ok, nobody can help me. bye htc one.

If youre trying to s-off with sunshine,you need a completely stock rom.i had a near stock rom & because the ramdisk was debuggable in boot.img,sunshine failed.i went back to 4.3 stock that i had a nandroid backup for.i would suggest using an RUU to get back to stock,if youre s on it shouldnt matter and i can confirm that the hboot for 4.3(1.57.xxxx) is compatabile with sunshine,because thats the hboot i had.
EDIT:my bad,i just found out you cannot use an RUU with an s-on device.im gunna see if i can find a zip without needing the use of an RUU.
Edit2: heres a link to an htc guru stock package for the m7.
You can flash this through fastboot,NOT recovery.
If you need commands or are unsure what to do,post back

Wow talk about mis information this is totally Wrong. A guru reset is always flashed with TWRP (2.6.3.3 Preferred)
And it's not really what he needs anyway it's too old
If your software is indeed x.xx.401 try this one >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358543706
thank you for chiming in.ive been out of the HTC device game for awhile.i appreciate the correction.
