[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
I just rooted and have a simple question: What is the safest way to manage this phone? Bootloader unlocked with S-ON and a custom recovery installed? I'm thinking the phone should be nearly unbrickable if I leave S-ON and never attempt to flash a bootloader or radio. In fact, I don't understand all the worry about bricking. A working fastboot/bootloader is all that's necessary to recovery a system from any failure except repartitioning. Am I missing something, or is this phone just as safe to mod as a Nexus device? (Note: I'm a HTC One noob, but Android-experienced.)

You may need to go to the "mount" options and mount /data or /sdcard. Once that's done, you can also try to look for the files in /data/media/0 instead of /sdcard (if CWM allows you to look outside /sdcard), because that link (shortcut) may not be working. And have hope! If this doesn't work, there are more interesting (and more reliable) ways to solve this problem, like connecting to a computer and using ADB to push a .zip to the right location.

Note: before you try anything, using CWM to clear the cache and dalvik cache would be a fast and easy first thing to try.

Was "recovery" one of the boxes you ticked? If so, you need to re-flash a custom recovery using fastboot, like you did the first time. And I hope "bootloader" wasn't one of the ticked options? Wiping your bootloader is the main way to brick your phone.

Thank you for the advice. That didn't work either, unfortunately. But I solved it by flashing in TWRP. It sorted out the whole thing. CWM is supposed to be full of bugs.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Travito:
The newest versions of TWRP have a wipe that will only do the standard three (data, cache, dalvik.) Don't use advanced wipe unless you know what it's going to do. if you can still get into recovery, then it sounds like you have only wiped your System partition, this is where the ROM itself lives and by doing what you originally did, you have removed the ROM from your phone. You will need to flash a ROM via ADB sideload, as it would seem that you wiped your internal storage too.

Put your phone into ADB Sideload mode in your recovery (sounds like TWRP if i were to guess. If so, that's in the advanced menu)

The easiest way to ADB sideload is to use the ADB Sideload option in the HTC One Toolkit

Otherwise, If you have ADB already, open a command prompt in the folder with ADB (shift+right click somewhere in the folder on windows 7/8 and pick the appropriate option. Otherwise, open a command prompt and navigate to your ADB folder)

Once a command window is open in the proper directory:

adb sideload (full path to your ROM, such as C:\users\Bob\Downloads\ROM.zip)

There can not be spaces in the Rom's name!

Let the ROM flash, reboot to system.

HTC ONE

Hello everyone. I have a problem with my HTC ONE, I have rooted and S-ON. Bootloader says tampered and UNLOCKED HBOOT-1.54.0000. I need a way to get back to 100% stock firmware 2.24.401.1 NORDIC. I live in Denmark. Is there anyone who can help me find the right RUU, and a how-to approach.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
I would caution you against recommending ADB Sideload in TWRP. TWRP turns the screen off, and if the ROM has an interactive installer, it may not work. (At least, it didn't work when I tried it. There was no way to get the screen back on, so I had to reboot and install by pushing the file to /sdcard/.)

Why does a noob want S-Off? (And just to be clear, I don't know the answer, sorry.)

There's a guide here and here. They link to RUUs and downloads.

Hi, complete android newbie here.

So i have a HTC one. And i want to do very little customizations (probably more in the future). My question is will i be able to hand pick the following features if i install a custom rom (arhd):

- swiping down the left of status bar brings up the notifications, swiping down the right area will bring up the switchers (instead of having to use two fingers)

- change folder background and how icon-previews in folders are displayed (like on nova launcher)

- scrolling wallpaper

- custom animations / effects / themes

- add "write sms" shortcut on homescreen

- restore to the original htc stock rom

I love my htc, just a few improvements that i would like to change. I just wanted to make sure that the above features can be installed on a custom rom, before i plunge in to messing with my phone, and before i spend time doing my research to achieve them.

I tried launchers from play store but i don't like the idea of a separate app running in the background plus a few minor things about them that I dislike.

S-OFF makes no difference, take a look at this guide
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
Your first and last request are the only difficult ones. The toggle bar quick-pulldown is probably only available in AOSP (built from Android source code) or GPe ROMs. These are not ideal if you use the camera a lot, because the drivers these ROMs use don't work as well as the camera code and driver in HTC-based ROMs. As for restoring to stock ROM, there's currently no way to unlock in such a way that it can be restored and made undetectable.

If you unlock your bootloader, you can make a backup of your ROM during that process. (Your ROM may be damaged before this completes, though--you may have the /data/preload/ directory deleted, and may lose the ability to receive OTA updates.) But you can restore that backup and have a stock ROM to use. You can also download it (flashable .zip file built by a third party, or official RUU if you can find one for your phone's CID). If you get the official RUU, you should be able to get OTA updates again.

All the other features are dependent on the launcher, and a custom ROM would not help. You can just bite the bullet and use the launcher that's closest to what you like. Popular choices are Nova and Trebuchet. An old but good choice is LauncherPro (this is also free). Some weird ones that have a lot of features are NextLauncher and Go Launcher Pro (also free, despite the name). I wouldn't recommend flashing a new ROM unless you really want to experiment, because it would gain you very little of the features you want.

Soft bricked my phone?

Hi this was my first time trying to root my phone and install a custom rom. I think I successfully rooted my phone but the problem came after flashing the new rom. My phone gets stuck at the Htc logo screen then it just goes black. I can get to the bootloader and to the twrp menu but I dont have a back up of my stock rom.

I followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2273376 i got up to the very last part about installing a custom rom and thats where the problem started.

I flashed the bulletproof-m7-6.2 which I got from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2233665&highlight=menu

it said I successfully installed the rom but after rebooting, it just got stuck at the htc logo.

Is there any way to get my phone to boot up properly? Even if it means I have to go back to stock

or is there a way that I can remotely flash a different rom using my pc? because I cant transfer another rom to my phone since it wont appear in my computer.

I really need help :(
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
You can either install a RUU (stock) using the bootloader, or you can boot into recovery and connect to USB and push another ROM to the phone that way. But the obvious first thing to try is to clear cache and dalvik cache, then factory reset if necessary. If that doesn't work, try another ROM by using ADB. You'll need to download it and configure it on your own, but the command you'll end up using is "adb shell mount /data; adb push /path/to/Some-ROM.zip /data/media/0" to get the ROM on your SD card.

Hello. I will receive an htc one from vodafone this afternoon. It has already got 4.2

I have been reading this topic, but please, can you confirm that I'm not wrong with this:

*if I don't unlock bootloader, there is no way to get root (that's the only thing I want for now, I want to be root so i can remove vodafone stuff, use titanium backup, etc)

*unlocking bootloader means losing warranty

*If I unlock bootloader there won't be any way to revert back to lock bootloader as i am not on 4.1.2

*question: Is there any risk of bricking the phone with no recovering if bootloader stays locked? And what about if i unlock it?

*is there any chance that with the next 4.3 version appears any new exploit that allows us to root our phone or something new?

Thank you very much :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matt95:
1 - that's right

2 - if you have issues that HTC will consider be caused by software then they won't recover your phone, but if you have an hardware issue then they should repair it

3 - that's right (if we do not find a way to s-off the latest hboot)

4 - if you are Locked you shouldn't have problems, if you unlock it then you have simply to pay attention and you won't brick it either

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
In theory, there's little or no risk. In practice, there are two things you want to do to protect yourself:

- You want to find a RUU for your CID (this is a file that contains the complete phone OS and firmware, released by either HTC or your carrier).

- As part of the rooting/unlocking procedure, you either install or temporarily boot into a custom recovery. You need to make a full phone backup when you do this, so you can get back to (your version of) stock no matter what happens. Copy this first backup on your computer.

Unlock problems

I've got a serious problem here...

I want to unlock an HTC ONE which is from Hungary and locked to T-mobile.... This is the case, right?!

I tried to unlock so many times with wrong unlock codes but i finally i'v got the the right unlock code, i guess... two of the sellers sent me this unlock code and both of them sad that the code is from the HTC database and it is definitely works....

BUT even with the right code my phone says: " incorrect unlock code"..... as i know there is a sim lock counter in my phone which is counting the tries... so i assume that i tried too many times to unlock the phone with wrong unlock codes so now even with the right code i am not able to unlock it....

i tried to flash the stock rom back to my phone because the seller sad it can reset this counter or restart whatever but it didn't work...

some of them sad if i wait 7-8days i will get 7-8 tries again....

none of this soluitons worked at all... iam totally sad now.... is there any chance to reset this counter or restart somehow????
