btw if you want to have a stock developer edition, unlock the bootloader! Dev edition phones are factory bootloader unlocked.

and if you are s-off, unlocking the bootloader is much easier and faster than using htcdev.com http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2470340

after flashing the nandroid or the odex rom you'll be stock rom and after flashing the firmware you'll be 100% stock including stock recovery

theres no need, i have an eu m7 and i got 4.4.3 today, my mid is pn07100 and i used super cid so if you have the eu m7 you are fine
[One (M7) General] ajua:
That's strange to say the least. European phones are now starting to get the 4.4.3 update and US unlocked models and dev editions stopped receiving it somehow. Does anyone know if the rollout stopped for some reason? I think it has but if it had a problem or a bug the European models should still be waiting too, right?

I did a clean wipe and went from the 4.2.1 RUU through every OTA (automatic updates from the phone, no manual installs) until 4.4.2 and Sense 6. That was about two or three weeks ago. My One is a US unlocked model, which is the same as the dev edition.
[One (M7) General] dd98:
the strange thing though, with my stock cid (HTC__001) I didnt receive the update, but changed it to super cid. why not change your mid to pn07100, get supercid, flash the stock 5.11.401.10 by mike1986 and flash the 5.11.401.10 firmware and see if that works
[One (M7) General] c5satellite2:
Rumor is that they are rolling the changes from 4.4.4 directly into 4.4.3.
[One (M7) General] ajua:
Too much hassle in my opinion.

I don't mind waiting as my phone is running perfectly fine but I wonder why the US unlocked and dev models aren't all updated already when the rollout started a month ago and apparently has stopped without any info from HTC or other sources.

It's not a rumor. HTC itself confirmed that when the rollout to the US unlocked and dev models started getting the 4.4.3 update.
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
Hi~hope you don't mind if I jump in here... Been following the many threads/guides for returning to stock (Canadian) to be able to receive OTAs. Honestly, have been reading x 10 hours/day on and off for weeks in order to get my head around all of this as it's all new to me.

I'm with Bell Canada and unlocked and rooted back in Jan to try and undelete some files. Since preload folder was wiped (I didn't know better then and had no backup first) I tried to add that folder back. Made some progress-first with SoundHound and then it was RingtoneTrimmer had unexpected content... So in SaHilzZ guide someone finally said 'screw it, flashed Dev RUU and OTAs are working' so I decided to go the same route. I don't care about all the Bell Bloat anyway. But I do want future OTAs.

I'm downloading Dev RUU mentioned in this thread from HTCDev (3.22.1540.1) and will flash it. My question is this: AFTER flashing is done and I get further OTA updates-will the phone still work with BS_US01 CID since my service is with Bell Mobility (Canada)? That's the part I'm not able to wrap my head around yet.

Does the 'actual' phone service depend totally on the SIM card in order to work properly?

Please forgive the noobish question. I got this phone last August and it was my first smartphone. I just used the phone until Jan when I had to unlock it as stated earlier, in order to try and find some lost files when I accidentally reset to factory state one night when turning the phone off/on.

I'm a little nervous that I'm going to get into a deeper hole than I'm in now. I NEED my phone to work as it is my only link to my family in the states and I'm totally on my own here in Montreal. My plan lets me call all of Canada/US and I don't want to screw it up. It's at least working now, just not able to get OTA.

I am S Off

Unlocked Bootloader

HBoot 1.56 (that I will downgrade to 1.4 before flashing)

Currently is 4.19.666.8

Sense5.5

Android 4.4.2

All these guides have been very helpful and I've learned a lot since Jan but this question now about do I keep the BS_US01 CID and still have service with Bell Mobility is my sticking point. Nkk1's guide has been very helpful as well but between reading both guides mentioned-every page, as well as a couple others, my brain is overloaded. I may just be over-reading or over-thinking everything but since I see you are also in Montreal and seem to be using the Dev edition I thought I would ask here. :fingers-crossed:

Thanks in advance.
[One (M7) General] alray:
You'll be fine using the Dev edition RUU with Bell, don't worry.

Change your CID to BS_US001:

boot your phone in bootloader mode, enter this command:

fastboot oem writecid BS_US001

then double check the CID is now BS_US001:

fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem readcid

the output must be BS_US001

If your MID is not PN0712000 change it to PN0712000:

use TWRP recovery 2.6.3.3 and flash this file the same way you would do it for a rom. Follow instruction from the GUI (Aroma installer) and change MID to PN0712000.

when done, reboot phone in bootloader mode and double check MID with fastboot getvar all or fastboot getvar mid

download the 3.22.1540.1 RUU and save it to your fastboot/adb folder, rename it to ruu (ruu.zip):

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
fastboot reboot

check for ota updates, latest version is 6.07.1540.1, there are 6 ota from 3.22.1540.1 to 6.07.1540.1
[One (M7) General] kartik.kayz:
I am downloading the update now. I changed the cid to 11111111 and It worked :) for those who didn't received the update change the cid to super cid (s-off is required) No need to flash any recovery or restore any nandroid backup.
[One (M7) General] alray:
nice! Glad it finally worked for you. Strange that supercid is needed, I was able to download it with BS_US001 in July.
[One (M7) General] kartik.kayz:
But it is August right now. :D
[One (M7) General] rcloke91:
Anyone who's bone stock gotten the update lately? If I need to S-Off and use SuperCID to try and see if that will work, I will, I just don't feel like going through the hassle.

EDIT: Nvm, just checked for an update it it's downloading now. Sweet.
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
Ready To Flash Dev RUU - Finally!

[MENTION=4654136]alray[/MENTION] THANKS so much for your rapid resonse. Am downloading the RUU again but this time from HTC Guru. At least on that site I can check MD5 as opposed to HTC Dev site. BTW, download speed is much fasater ATM on Guru as opposed to HTC Dev. Almost done in 10 minutes when it took about an hour on DEV site. My phone already is PN0712000.

Will continue to follow this thread to learn more; never hurts to learn. Although I have to say this has been quite an 'experience' in an already trauma-filled few months this site has been a real life-saver.

Will report back on my intented success.

I've hit the THANKS button. :D
[One (M7) General] alray:
so it looks like its not related to supercid (check post just below your last one)

---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 PM ----------

no problem mate

Good thing to check MD5 :good: ppl should always do that before flashing the file.

I'm sure everything will works fine. I'll be online till 4 pm if you still need help.
[One (M7) General] kartik.kayz:
I don't know if it is related to supercid or not. I checked before changing the cid there was no update to download but after changing cid I immediately got update, So it made me believe that it was due to supercid.
[One (M7) General] alray:
well this is strange! anyway thanks for reporting this. It worth a try for ppl stuck with no update :good:
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
One last quick question before I flash. I verified new CID is BS_US001

Should I downgrade HBoot to 1.4 or am I good to go with Hboot 1.56?
[One (M7) General] alray:
you should be good to go, hboot will be flashed during the process anyway. If it doesnt work then retry with the 1.44 hboot. dont forget to flash the ruu twice:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip [COLOR="Red"] ---> will say something like "failed flush image again immediately"[/COLOR]
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
fastboot reboot

and stay s-off and bootloader unlocked
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
[MENTION=4654136]alray[/MENTION] Seem to be experiencing slight difficulty here. When I issue the flash zip ruu.zip command my computer hoses up. Tried 3 times and had to hard restart my PC (it's an old XPS). Will try from a newer pc and see if that makes any difference. Before the PC froze, while in /adb folder after I tried to flash the zip it came back with stating the size of the iamge file...then the PC froze.

Ever heard of this happening before?
[One (M7) General] ajua:
I didn't change anything but when doing a random check for updates today just for the sake of it, the update appeared.

I guess the rollout is still going or just resumed. I'm installing it now. The file is the standard zip file so I don't know why the first users got an encrypted file with a different extension.

The OTA version is 6.07.1540.1 and is 485.34 MB in size.
[One (M7) General] ajua:
I was trying CM11 last month and I couldn't install the 4.19.1540.9 RUU even with HBOOT 1.44 already flashed.

The error was about the image was too big or something like that. I tried the very first RUU (Android 4.2.1 I think) and all went fine. From then I went from OTA to OTA until 5.11.1540.9 which was Sense 6 and Android 4.4.2.

Today I just received the 4.4.3 update.

If you can't install the most current RUU, try an early one and see if that helps.
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
Just got back in from an errand I had to run and saw your response. Thanks for the tip. Will try again with the earlier RUU and report back with my progress.

EDIT: I wound up doing the RUU.exe after downgrading to HBoot 1.4. It worked fine, flashed like it was supposed to and started getting OTAs. Several hours later and now updating to sense 6.(5.11.1540.9). Very glad I didn't have to deal with the nandroid backups and potential loss of touch screen that was talked about in returning to stock threads. I stopped counting the number of updates that were applied so far but seems like it was 6. No more Bell bloat, yeah!

The only down side I can see is I had backed up all my apps and data via adb and when I went to restore them I realized that some of them included the Bell stuff. Now I have to decide if I think it's easier to just reinstall the approximately 10 apks I had or restore the backup and then uninstall the Bell ones.
[One (M7) General] ajua:
It's nice to see you got back to stock and everything is running fine. I would just install the few apks you need and don't bother with uninstalling you carrier apps.
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
That's exactly what I did in the end. Luckly, I had backed up my SMS and call log to my Google account after reading about that. Then I realized I could just go into Gmail and look at my apps and it told me everything that was installed via Google Play so I just reinstalled the ones I still wanted.

I would say this about that...HELL YEAH!

Thanks so much to all of you! I am giving myself a pat on the back for what I have learned through all of this, lol. :o
[One (M7) General] alray:
glad it worked! FYI latest version is 6.07.1540.1 Android 4.4.3 Sense 6. We should get android 5.0 in a near future (HTC promised to push it 90 days after its release by google).

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 AM ----------

Could you please upload that zip file? Would be really usefull, I can not do much with the encrypted file I got in July...
[One (M7) General] ajua:
I always backup the OTAs but yesterday while the zip was transferring to my computer I received a call and unplugged the phone to answer it.

Needless to say, the transfer aborted. I plugged it back in after the call but the file disappeared as I used cut instead of copy. :(

Silly me, I know. So, if anyone can upload it for others to use, it would be great!
[One (M7) General] yatindroid:
Windows cut paste system work as copy file to destination after that delete source file so file will be there either phone or PC

But best way is make other copy inside phone so at least one remains after update
[One (M7) General] ajua:
I know how it works but I've seen files disappear if the transfers get aborted when the device is unplugged or something weird happens like a BSOD.

After that, the OTA disappeared from the phone and the file on my PC was incomplete and obviously, corrupted.

I always use copy for external devices but I guess the call during the few seconds the transfer should have taken caught me by surprise and I unplugged the phone thinking the file was already on my PC.
[One (M7) General] yatindroid:
I will download & upload if it is available as ota for my phone after conversion to US dev edition
[One (M7) General] ajua:
That could help users who haven't seen the update show on their phones yet. Regards!
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
I had read in other posts that Extreme Power Saving Mode seemed to be more like Extreme Power Draining Mode...

I did have Power Saver feature on but not Extreme PSM. Last night when I went to bed the phone was charged at 100%. When I got up at 9am the phone was completely DEAD. 0% battery.

Prior to this I only had to charge my phone like every 2-3 days. I don't do more than text, call and check FB with it as a rule.

Any Suggestions? :confused:

Thanks.
[One (M7) General] NorthNow:
Just realized something. I restored some voice recording files and videos to the phone last night after finding them again on my pc. These were what had been deleted when I mistakenly resete to factory back in January one night whilst powering down the phone. I didn't have my glasses on and the phone booted into recovery and I had never before seen that menu and when I pressed the power the reset to factory must have been highlighted (damn, getting old sucks). Anyway, I rooted in order to undelete and tried several different apps for that and retrieved several of the files that had been deleted. I need those files for an upcoming hearing so I was naturally freaked out when I turned the phone on the next day and saw the phone was in 'like new' state.

Since I tend to do things late into the night maybe I verified these .aac files were working after transferring back to the phone so the phone may not, in fact, have been at 100% when I retired to bed.

I usually just leave the USB cable attached to my old XPS and plug my phone in and charge that way but since I need to take the phone with me today I plugged it into the wall and it charged up pretty fast. When I turned the phone back on the latest update you mentioned is there so downloading that one now.

Will definitely keep an eye on it though and check battery consumption.

Definitely gonna stay glued to this thread for tips and to maintain my sanity.

Thanks everyone.:cyclops:
[One (M7) General] sl0519:
US unlocked or developer edition?

Your change logs seem to differ from European version. Do you find file manager along with the update?
[One (M7) General] ajua:
I haven't tried any of the power saving modes in a while so I can't comment on that.

I think I remember reading about drainage while power saving modes were active but it was a thing with a specific carrier, I can't recall exactly.

US unlocked model. I have a file manager after this update indeed.

how can i flash these OTAs if my CID is 111111111 - this is how it came when buying it... I ve tried and it says installation aborted... please help,
[One (M7) General] yatindroid:
You need S Off then change your

cid BS_US001

MID PN0712000

Then you can flash them
[One (M7) General] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
Yes actually am S-off.. the device came like this.. changing the MID is the trickiest for me now.. am trying to identify the one I have now...
[One (M7) General] yatindroid:
Original MID is written on back bottom of phone

And software MID at bootloader

Use " Aroma MID changer tool " best way
[One (M7) General] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
ok it is : PN07100

but I dont have any custom recovery and am not sure I want to have it... ( for Aroma MID tool)

this means I have to go via fastboot to change the MID & CID for those you provided me in order to install the OTAS.

if I unlock bootloader... will it be better? so now I could install any rom...right?
[One (M7) General] yatindroid:
so your phone is modified much as software version is 3.22.1540.1 cid 1111111 MID 710000

So you decide which way you wanna go

Try HTC UK Rom with just change cid HTC__001 no MID change required

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...0-38r-1157-04l_release_353069_signed_2-1-exe/

If you still want HTC US dev edition we can help you but better go short & sweet method
[One (M7) General] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
Ok so to recap...

Do I need to change CID only? My MID will work for that UK Rom? Is that what you say?

Or should I install TWRP to change the MID and use fast boot to change the CID?

And then update by OTA...

like that?
[One (M7) General] yatindroid:

My Htc One M7 has CID BS_US001.Software is 3.22.1540.1 and i followed the steps but cannot install OTA file OTA_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_4.06.1540.2-3.22.1540.1_R4_release_342621pwc1arsthngg08zv.zip. What i'm doing wrong?

I have try over wifi, phone is finding an update to 4.96.1540.3 but cannot install it, half pf process and red triangle on screen....Also i tries to run exe file on PC but got again an error.When i'm try to apply OTA file in Recovery it says:

"/system/customize/CID/default.xml" has unexpected contents"

"Installation aborted"

CID is BS_US001, before running exe file CID was 11111111.Phone is not rooted, when i access boot menu on top it says" Looked".

Please any suggestion is appreciated.
[One (M7) General] alray:
the installation abort fails because you have modified (or any other mod like a custom kernel, root etc....) default.xml in /system/customize/CID. You'll have to restore that file to its original content if you want to install the update. You could also flash a ruu, post your fastboot getvar all (no imei and sn)
[One (M7) General] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
I have the same problem and same specs on the device as you...and what experts here have told me is that 1st you need to know your MID # which is located at the end of the device... if its PN071000 then there is no way you can update with this firmware since it is for CID BS_US001 (as you changed) but for MID PN0712000 - and changing the MID is another story my friend...

What I'll be doing is to change CID to HTC__001 and run the EUROPE RUU.exe for this MID PN07100... it is uploaded few posts above...

let me know how it goes mate .. cheers!

I just want to update to 4.4.2 or 4.4.43 SENSE 5.5/6.0 but cannot do it over wifi or Recovery, nothing works.What I have to do?

Thanks in advance!
[One (M7) General] alray:
Changing MID is pretty easy mate! just need to flash a custom recovery (twrp 2.6.3.3) then use the MID Change tool zip and select which MID you want, all this from a graphical user interface (aroma installer). It takes 2 minute for an experienced used and maybe like 15 for someone less experimented.

Yatindroid suggested you the fastest and easiest way to update your phone (that a good thing) but if you really want the dev edition version on your phone, this is not really harder to accomplish. You have the choice. We can help you in both cases.

[One (M7) General] Lonzo_SGS2_506:
Yes mate this is it. All I want is to run the more stock possible.

So am thinking 2.options:

1. Flash the exe as suggested. With th HTC__001 Cid.

2. Installing TWRP and change MID for proper updates.

However this device doesn't suppose to be the developer edition since it is not 64gb..
[One (M7) General] alray:
unlock bootloader (if not already unlocked)

flash a custom recovery (twrp 2.6.3.3 preferred) (if you don't already have a custom recovery installed.

download this zip file, and copy it to your /sdcard folder

in recovery select "install" then "MID_Change_TOOL_v.1.01.zip" and "swipe to flash"

the Arome installer will start ( a graphical user interface), click "next" a couple of times and the select PN0712000 and "install"

reboot phone in bootloader mode

download and save this ruu to your fastboot/adb folder and rename it ruu (ruu.zip)

open a terminal window, type these commands: (this will reset your phone to 100% stock 3.22.1540.1, this will also wipe all your personal file before so make sure to backup important data if any)

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
fastboot reboot

now your phone will boot normally to the stock 3.22.1540.1 OS

go to settings --> about --> software updates and apply all ot aupdate from 3.22.1540.1 to 6.07.1540.1 (6 updates total)

Alray,

I don't want to root the phone. Who is the easy way please, don't want an developer edition- just to have 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 with sense 5.5 or 6. I'm using phone on Chatr. What to do now?
[One (M7) General] alray:
doesnt matter if its not 64gb, im running it on the 32gb version. Changing MID worth the time because Dev edition version get update faster than UK unlocked version. its up to you, you can do what yatin said or change the mid and run the dev ruu (instructions already posted above for the other guy)

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

you don't need to root, you'll just need s-off and i'm alsmot sure its already s-off because MID and CID of your phone doesnt match so it was probably changed by the previous owner. post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (except the IMEI and SERIALNO) se I can tell you if your phone is s-off or not.
