In a pickle. I'm S-OFF, unlocked bootloader and was rooted and changed the CID to GOOGL001 and my MID is PN0720000.

I followed OP's instructions to a "T" and after the first fastboot flash .zip command, I must have waited too long to re-type it for the second flash. The phone disconnected from my computer. My phone froze at the HTC logo and the USB connection was no longer active (waiting on device).

Now I have Google's stock "FASTBOOT" (black screen with robot on it) but my phone image is still the developer Sense. I still have TWRP recovery. Rebooting the phone takes me into Sense, suggesting the flash was partially completed (because the fastboot screen isn't HTCs).

Am I in for a restart from the beginning stage?

Edit: I did a factory reset in TWRP and now it stops booting at the HTC quietly brilliant screen with a grey unlock icon at the bottom. Great.

Edit2: TWRP is giving me "No OS installed!" Yes, I'm 100% aware I shouldn't have changed the advance settings in TWRP when reformatting. Lesson learned.

Great, looks like the wipe I did wiped the OS. Now I have a completely dead phone.

What do I do? Please help! Will a RUU.exe work here? I was running the Dev edition firmware before changing my CID. Now it's:

CID to GOOGL001

MID is PN0720000

No OS on the phone at all and USB connection not connecting to my computer. Device not found.

I'm thinking the Developer Edition RUU will fail because my CID is GOOGL001.

My computer only has USB 3.0 ports (thanks Lenovo!). It will not connect to adb at all. Am I hosed?
[One (M7) Android Development] xperia x root:
1.)Hold "volume down" during boot to enter bootloader menu.

2.) plug in usb cable and boot in Ruu mode in order to reinstall the gpe Ruu. (Follow description on op)

As the description and cmd say , do not wait too long for second "fastboot install zip gpe.zip" otherwise phone may become unreachable .
[One (M7) Android Development] ericshmerick:
Thanks. That's all fine and well but my phone will no longer connect to my PC. It doesn't recognize it at all and I have no OS. I realize I waited too long between the first and second fastboot command (was like 8 seconds, but whatever).

Will try RUU.exe for the Dev Sense OS (stock) but if the phone will not connect to my PC, I don't know what else I can do.

Edit: RUU.exe doesn't work either. USB connection error. Tried all 3 ports. Is it USB 3 that's giving me errors? It simply will not communicate with my PC at all, so I can't reach the phone and have no phone OS.

Looks like my only two options are:

1. Try OTG

2. Uninstall HTC drivers, install generic drivers

3. Pray 1 or 2 works
[One (M7) Android Development] ericshmerick:
SHES BACK FROM THE DEAD!! I used another computer in the house with a USB 2 port. Installed the generic HTC drivers, then BAM, connected via fastboot.Nice.

Just got everything working again. Thank god.

Not sure if it was USB 3/Windows 8.1 or what, but it worked fine with Win7 and USB 2.0. Hallelujah!

I purposefully installed 4.2 to see if it would OTA...and it does!

That was a bit scary. Glad I figured it out.

UPDATE: spoke too soon I guess. The OTA that is showing is for 4.3 (it's 15.1mb). When I reboot to install the OTA, it installs fine and once my phone boots back up, it's fully wiped. I have to go through and re-set up everything. The OTA then appears again (same exact OTA), rinse repeat. Wipes every time.

Why?

UPDATE 2 (as if anyone is reading this). After the second OTA, it's not wiping...just upgrading! I must have had a very old OS that required a wipe. All is well again and I'm OTA'ing my way up to 4.4.2! Whew, again!

??!
[One (M7) Android Development] NxNW:
Just to review post 1 of this thread, S-OFF is a prerequisite.

What is your exact S-OFF status? What method(s) did you use to obtain S-OFF? Any unusual occurrences during the process?

According to Sneakyghost http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2316726 , error 99 is unusual and may indicate a problem with your S-OFF situation.
[One (M7) Android Development] AJ:
i have S-OFF , through rumrunner ,

am using usb 3 , does this effect anything ?
[One (M7) Android Development] NxNW:
Well, maybe. Someone else will have to chime in on that topic. An obvious suggestion would be to attempt it on a device with a USB 2 port.

Obviously make sure you have the very latest HTC Sync drivers installed...
[One (M7) Android Development] qixiixiq:
usb 3.0

as per 3 posts back Either usb 3 or windows 8 may be the culprit. try a usb 2.0 port and keep us posted.

any word on when GPE devices will be getting the 4.5 ota? i know its early but there is alot of mixed information on the web.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Just FYI guys.... I probably won't be updating the RUU anymore. While I still do have my One it will be either getting sold or something else very soon.. But it really doesn't need to be updated :) you guys get the ota's :P

It has been real and I hope to see you over in my m8 conversation thread once I get it going (and someone gets a gpe to pull the partitions from) hell I might even buy it just to pull the partitions and then return it :P
[One (M7) Android Development] !n!t6:
Don't want to complain about my battery life, it's good. But there is clearly something wrong with the stats. Screen has been on over 2 hours and should be somewhere on top with more than 50%. I keep on getting something at 10% and less.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Ok...... And that has to to what with flashing the RUU? This isn't a rom thread.. What you get is exactly what's on a gpe.. Without any modifications (unless you flash the rooted one which that's the only modification)
[One (M7) Android Development] njaustin123:
Hi graffixnyc and all,

First of all Thanks for all the help I got from here.

Mine was an AT&T unlocked HTC One and I started visiting this forum to get a Dev Sense or GE.

I made it first to the Sense Dev edition, everything was okay, but the battery was not really lasting. Then reading the OP here, I made it to GE (Pre-rooted 4.4.2). Got few questions here:

1) Just like the Dev when in LTE area, max I get is two bars. Is this really a problem? I mean will it affect battery and the LTE speed? If yes what can I do? Is putting it to CWS_001 the way to go?

2) I just RUUed the pre-rooted 4.4.2 GE and then took and flashed the recovery.img from the firmware given in OP. With this am I ready for the OTAs. I am really happy with the pure Android experience. So if I am sure to get OTAs, I will be happy and no more playing with the phone.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
You're very welcome :)

1. This is just the way AT&T reports the signal meter in the UI, it actually lies to you and makes it look like you have a stronger signal than you have. I know they have mods to report what AT&T would report.

2. You didn't need to flash the recovery. The pre rooted one is just rooted, everything else is stock. As long as you don't delete any system.apks or mod any of them an OTA will work fine even rooted. You will however have to root again
[One (M7) Android Development] njaustin123:
Thank you.

1) Forgot to tell that I am with T-Mobile. They show 0, 1, or max 2 bars when in LTE and mostly full range in 3G/H . But I think your comments still hold good. I am assuming I don't have to make it CWS_001 and can keep it GOOGL001 to be always ready for the OTA and my battery life is not going to get affected.

2) I did the recovery flash anyway. Maybe i just overwrote the same recovery. :) . And rooting again means, getting the OTA, flash TWRP and install SuperSU again and then getting and flashing the recovery.img from that OTA's firmware.zip and be ready for the future OTA - correct me if I am wrong.
[One (M7) Android Development] !n!t6:
Sorry for asking this, I thought someone has experienced similar problems. I don't know in which thread I shloud post this. I just flashed the rooted RUU from the OP and have made this puzzling observation.
[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
There are plenty of threads discussing battery life. You may post such discussion there. Search to find one. Look for them in the General or Q&A forums.

Your issues are with the GE ROM/Kernel and you should phrase it as such when you post. It's not the RUU's fault, the RUU is simply a means to load the virgin HTC One GE ROM.
[One (M7) Android Development] !n!t6:
Please help me to understand the process. If I flash the rooted RUU from the OP, my phone gets entirely wiped and I have a clean GPE on my phone. If you grab another M7 and do the same with that phone, what variables could be left that make both devices behave differently on android level? Could there be still someting left from previous installations causing such effects?

My post was not meant to start a battery life discussion here. I am very pleased and thankful that you guys make this all possible. I have absoluteley no battery problems, sorry if I didn't make this clear enough. I was just wondering about the confusing display I get. My logical thought was to report this observation here right after following every single step on the OP and replacing my phone's entire memory by flashing a rooted RUU file that is also linked in the OP of this thread. My intention was not to blame someting or anyone. My hope was to get a someting like "I have the same issue, its normal for a converted M7" or "never seen this before" to decide on the next logical step.
[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Thank you for helping make my M7 a full fledged GE HTC One.

The only reason I was against GE in the past, was because IR was not working yet and I needed an M7 compatible with all T-Mobile US frequencies. Ever since they IR working, I was running GE ROMs and seeking a means to get exactly what I have now. A true GE HTC One [emoji41] .

This is not the kind of project that requires ongoing support. Since once the conversion is made, we get updates directly from Google/HTC.
[One (M7) Android Development] lakyran:
I flahed this on my stock sense rom and it worked except for one thing. The phone doesn't seem to have a data connection. Wifi works, but no data connection, neither over 2g nor 3g.

Can anyone help?
[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Did you ensure your APN settings are correct? Any settings you previously had were lost during the conversion.
[One (M7) Android Development] PeteSeiler2010:
Thank you for giving us the GE HTC One, and i will definately be getting an M8 as soon as i have the funds!
[One (M7) Android Development] LinkinFanNum1:
So I converted my tmo M7 last year to GE and while I like it I want to go back to the original tmo version. How would I go about taking the phone back to stock?
[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Search for a copy of the stock ROM and flash it on. Then do the same for the stock recovery and stock kernel if you want to be 100% stock again.
[One (M7) Android Development] LinkinFanNum1:
Thank you Darnell
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Looks like s-off is coming for the M8 soon and I already havea gpe conversion zip ready for testing for the m8 :) So when you m7 users come over I'll have you covered ;)
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
I have been using this RUU a lot whenever I need a break from flashing. The only thing I miss after I RUU is double tap to wake.

Would there be a way to slide in a kernel like ElementalX in the RUU so that I could have the DT2W feature without the need to have a custom recovery?
[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
The Dev for this RUU has already moved on to the M8. So what is available now is all there will be.
[One (M7) Android Development] gorgo80:
If i do the flash of stock without root, will it mean that i can get ota update direct from google?

Skickat från min Nexus 7 via Tapatalk
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
If you use an RUU, yes because that will wipe your phone completely and put the stock recovery on which will allow you to install the OTA.
[One (M7) Android Development] gorgo80:
Thanks, then I will do the install of RUU of this later tonight.

If I take the RUU with root, will I still get the OTA? or do I need to take the stock without root?

Sorry for this silly questions :)
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
If you install the RUU that is rooted (which is what I'm using), you still have stock recovery which means the OTA will download and install. I don't know what will happen to root after an OTA though, I have never tried that.
[One (M7) Android Development] vviper:
You will loose root and have to re-root again after the OTA. graffixnyc said this to previous reply in this thread.
[One (M7) Android Development] gorgo80:
Sounds greate :) one last question, I will still have S-off I suppose :) and an unlock bootloader.
[One (M7) Android Development] vviper:
Yes, you keep so-off and the unlocked bootloader.
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
It probably won't be too hard to re-root after an OTA. Only reason I picked the rooted version is for greenify.
[One (M7) Android Development] gorgo80:
Sounds grate all this, I read that htc one m7 also will get the 4.4.3 :) hope we will get it really soon after nexus 5 got it.

Several fixis are made on 4.4.3
[One (M7) Android Development] Busted.:
sorry for asking, maybe it has already been asked several times, but i didn't read the whole thread...

I can't flash this on my HTC One (international | Sense Edition), can I ?

Or do I have to convert my phone into GE ..?
[One (M7) Android Development] jpcdeux:
That's what this does. If you're asking that, I wouldn't be messing with doing such things to your phone!
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Question for you guys not in the US who converted. What did you do with the radio in the ruu? Did you leave it in the zip? Remove it and use your radio? Do you get LTE? I'm asking because on my m8 conversation a lot of people overseas are flashing the ruu with the radio in and not getting LTE, but then I don't know how that will affect an OTA if the radio is updated.. I'm just asking here since you guys have more time running the ruu then the m8 guys...

So you guys not in the US please share your experience on how you dealt with getting a proper data connection with the ruu
[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
i have the M7 International in EU - Italy (m7_ul) fully converted and have LTE coverage with the included radio bump

atm i have the latest sense 401 radio and i'm on LTE, if you need i can switch back to GPE radio and make some screenshot, but i guarantee it's working.
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
I'm in Canada on Bell, left the RUU as it is, and I get LTE no problem, didn't even have to mess with the APNs or anything like that.
[One (M7) Android Development] GHE_1908:
In Australia, M7ul converted without changing radios. Checked that LTE worked fine on vodafone,
[One (M7) Android Development] Khoral:
Same thing in France. Kept the included radio, LTE works very well with different carriers.

Maybe some frequency problems ? (depending on the country and the operator, the frenquencies used may be different ?)
[One (M7) Android Development] PeteSeiler2010:
I am in the US and I did the conversion on my AT&T M7 and I left all the files as-is, I get an LTE connection with no issues.
[One (M7) Android Development] MrKaon:
Here in UK I converted to GPE with radio as well, no problem, everything is working including 4G.
[One (M7) Android Development] jorgemiguellopes:
Portugal here. Full conversion with RUU. Changed nothing. LTE works great!

Cheers

hi lads this was working perfect

but phone fell in water was working ok til battery died and now it keeps restarting

any idea

[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
put it in a little box full of rice for 1-2 days, it could help

if not, it's hardware damaged.
[One (M7) Android Development] Mohanned85:
doing that now

screen not damaged like

if not working by tomorrow i bring to shop to check
[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Wait a couple days before going to a shop. All the shop can do is the exact same thing you're doing. They'll tell you they need a few days to work on it. And they'll just have it sitting in their bag of rice [emoji1]

Here.. next time use it... http://bit.ly/1lu8CtS
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
That never gets old doesn't it :)

Thanks for the RUUs by the way, I don't know how many times I have used them when I get tired of flashing ROMs.

If only I could put the Elemental X kernel in the RUU for double tab to wake, I'd never flash again.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
If his kernel is just a boot.img you can swap it for the one in the RUU. If he uses special libs stored in system then it won't work.

However.. You can run the ruu, flash the kernel, then dump the system image(you'll already have the boot image in the kernel zip) and replace it in the ruu zip and bam.. You have an ruu with your custom kernel

You could even create a ruu that has mods as long as they are installed in the system.. Like I think having the xposed framework would work.

In terminal emulator just type

Su (enter)

dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p45 of=/sdcard/system.img

It will dump it to your sdcard, just take that image and replace the one in the ruu, as well as the boot image and you should be golden ;)
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
Oh wow, I didn't know I could do that (it's beyond my Android knowledge quite a bit).

I will have to give that a try, thank you!
[One (M7) Android Development] eradicator006:
Good info but isn't the system partition p35? You put p45.

[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
I'm looking forward to seeing an RUU for 4.4.3 there. Probably a few more weeks before the update
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
There won't be one... From me at least.. I no longer have the m7. You don't really need an updated ruu since you'll get ota's
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
Good point, we can always RUU the 4.4.2 and let the OTA do it's thing.

I just figured someone might grab tho OTA before it's pushed and make an RUU out of it. Although I think with stock recovery, you can save the OTA and the recovery will install it.

In any case, I will be waiting for the OTA, I was told I need to lower by blood pressure and compulsively flashing doesn't help me with that :)

Thank you again for making those RUUs. They allowed me to convert my phone and now that Google has a great camera app, there's nothing in sense that I miss.

I for one appreciate that you did that for us. :good:
[One (M7) Android Development] 4mynikka:
So I've completed the conversion but now my Youtube app is very temperamental, is there anything I can do to get that working 100%, it will freeze and will need me to reboot or clear cache just for it to work for a few minutes. This occurs more on Wi-Fi, thoughts?

Blink feed

Now that blink feed is on google play store can it be installed on a GE phone?
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
No idea. Give it a try and report back
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
Nope, not yet. The TV app works but not blinkfeed. In my opinion, if you like blinkfeed, stick to a sense ROM.

---------- Post added at 05:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 AM ----------

I have that problem regardless of what GPE rom I'm using, either an RUU or something like SinLess or ARHD. I reboot until it works and then I try not to reboot. I was never able to understand why GPE does that and it's one of the reasons I tried sense 6, I never have the problem if I'm on a sense ROM

[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Thank you for mentioning the HTC TV app is now working. I found it on Google Play. I'm really glad HTC made it more openly available. I used to enjoy how the HTC remote has Peel fully integrated. Now I've got it back [emoji2] [emoji106]

And yea, if you want Blinkfeed, you may as well go 100% Sense. There's really no need for Blinkfeed when there are other very similar apps out there. Such as Flip Board, Google News Stand and LinkedIn Pulse.
[One (M7) Android Development] UltraNoob:
I've had this problem since the initial KitKat update. YouTube works on a reboot on the first wifi network you connect to after reboot. Once you disconnect from that network ie leave your house etc. YouTube will not work on any WiFi network till reboot. Its a really really annoying issue that doesn't seem to have any solutions. I finally gave up and am now running a cm11 based ROM.
[One (M7) Android Development] speedyg0nz:
I realized that HTC TV requires the HTC Service Pack app. However, the app description is extremely vague. Can anyone shed some light on what the Service Pack includes? The main reason for converting to Google Edition is to avoid HTC bloat so I'm worried that this service pack would reintroduce them.

[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
I don't know that it's easy to return to completely stock, it completely depends what carrier you have and if there is a stock RUU for it.

Most RUUs you can find here : http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/

I know for me on Bell, there is no RUU so I can go back to a stock ROM, but not 100% stock as the day I bought the phone.
[One (M7) Android Development] erhangulsum:
I bought this in netherlands from a shop. i liked the phone when released, but there was no gpe here. i bought it when it was possible to gpe on any htc one.

now i want to try stock rom. maybe battery life is better. i download this right now: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...0-38r-1157-04l_release_353069_signed_2-1-exe/

do you know how do i have to install it?
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
It's an executable so you just run it while the phone is plugged in and it should do everything

Be 100% sure it's for you phone and your carrier. I don't know what will happen to your phone if the RUU isn't exactly for it.
[One (M7) Android Development] MrKaon:
You can start from here.
