Why are you keep mentioning word "Update" for this RUU.

You can't use it for "update" as it will wipe everything?
[One (M7) Android Development] gehess:
English can be such an inaccurate language.

You're right. This will wipe your device. It's also a more up-to-date version of Android L, hence calling it an "update".
[One (M7) Android Development] dinoc:
The way I update this without wipe (while having root and custom recovery):

1. Do unroot from the SuperSU app

2. Extract the recovery_signed.img from the RUU (for instant you are on H17 update and you want H18), download the H17 RUU and extract the recovery img

3. From ADB "adb reboot bootloader"

4. From fastboot " fastboot flash recovery [the image you extracted from RUU in step 2]

5. Done - reboot phone

Now you are stock and can do the OTA update to H18.

If you want root again, revert the steps, first install custom recovery (TWRP) then apply the root.

Possible Firmware Trouble?

Hi everyone,

I want to try this conversion on my phone. I am wondering if I will run into any firmware issues. I think I still have what was on the phone when I bought it three years ago. It was Sense based but I've experimented with several custom ROMs.

Below is the result of 'fastboot getvar all'. Can I just go ahead and flash this version - 6.04.1700.19 LMY47O.H19 RUU without problems? Thanks for the help.

problems with google app

After running LinageOS for a time I decided to switch to the GPE. I flashed successfully. The phone ran fine for the first 24 hours as I continued to get a series of OTAs. The last OTA that I received was the LMY470.H14 release keys. Since then the google app as quit working. I have cleared the cache and data on the google app and google framework services, but the problem persists. That does not seem to have helped. Any ideas what could be causing this?
[One (M7) Android Development] houston_:
Hey there,

I have re revive my htc m7 since my new phone is in repair.

So I was digging trough a few threads and found out the GPE hboot is much newer than the sense one, even if the version number is lower.

Sine I am not planing to return to a sense based rom, I should go for the GPE hboot, right?

I am just talking about the hboot, because I don't want to use the last GPE-Rom, but a AOSP based nougat/oreo rom.

Is there a way to update my hboot without flashing the whole GPE-Rom?

My device:

S-off, HBoot 1.61, superCID, latest TWRP

Flashback

Ok...this may be my first post ever but I am here often...lurking...reading...learning :) Anyway I thought I would post my findings in case anyone is curious.

I have an AT&T HTC One, s-off, SuperCID and relocked bootloader.

I just wanted everyone to know that I was able to fully convert to the Google Edition and then fully convert back to Stock Sense without any issues at all.

Obviously to get to GE I RUU flashed the zip file from the OP which worked perfectly.

To get back to stock Sense ROM I had to RUU flash the firmware package from 2.17.401.1 RUU first and then just ran RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_Cingular_1.26.502.12.exe. I did attempt at first to run the RUU.exe without flashing the firmware back and it errored out.

Anyway that's my story. I hope this helps someone

Probably a good idea to edit the original post with the very latest file from ucon when you can OR mention that people can simply change the txt file and reflash with the sbl stuff (or without?

Question

Developer Edition - unlocked - hboot 1.44 s-ON

Want to S-off (brings boot to 1.54) flash the latest zip file to go to a pure Google phone

as others have done.

Question is this:

After I S-OFF and flash say the pure Google rom, which changes the hboot from 1.44 to 1.54,

I can only flash (go back to Sense Stock Rom) via an RUU when the phone is in the unlocked state.

Once I lock the phone you cannot go back to a firmware that has the hboot at 1.44. You will be

locked at hboot 1.54 until this is sorted out?

If this is true, how do you flash back the original ruu? When I flashed the HTC STOCK SENCE RUU it would not

flash unless I locked the device. So it seems you are screwed. Am I understanding this correctly?

Please advise

Well that's good news.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
I never thought you wouldn't be.. And in all due respect the people who thought you might not be able to are dumb. You have a bootloader that's unlocked. The phone doesn't care what system it's running as long as the system is built for that device's HW which both the Sense ROM and the GE are. They have all the drivers and such for the HW. The phone couldn't care less if it was running sense, GE, or even webos or ubuntu as long as those systems are built for the device. Hell I remember some people getting windows phones to run android..

OK, This download is really slow for me in USA. I was wondering if it would be OK with you or the OP to upload it to Dropbox or Box and provide a mirror for the file for those of us getting slow downloads on this. Thanks! If not it's cool. I just thought I'd ask.

When doing the conversion do I have to flash the bootloader then the RUU, or just the RUU? Also do I have to have anything else other than s-off to do this conversion?

If you are using the full RUU, then only flash that. S-Off and SuperCID is recommended. Good luck.

Now I have a question. Once installed, I'll have to reflash recovery and reroot the device right? I'm 99.9% sure this is the case and I don't mind doing it. I just want to make sure.

Bootloader worked fine for me [AT&T Unlocked S-Off]

Holding off on the Recovery until you guys dump everything else so that I can flash via Recovery first.

How did you figure out the problem with the Recovery anyways? I had a very similar problem with my first One; no matter what custom recovery I flashed, it would go black and then boot into Android. I flashed back to the Stock 3e recovery at will in testing and that worked, but none of the custom ones did. I thought maybe the partition was borked so I returned it and never got to the bottom of it. Sounds like you had a similar experience with the GPe recovery on your phone.
