I've changed my CID to 1111111, do I need to change my MID to flash a GPE ruu? Bit confused, simply flashing a GPE rom, that does still gain the benefits of HTC audio quality, camera, HTC apps or do I need to go the ruu route for this?
[One (M7) Android Development] LavLab:
For all the HTC stuff, you need a sense ROM.

I just meant the better audio and camera that comes with Sense roms, does GPE not have that? I was looking for the best of both worlds and I like the aosp look but the audio quality of M7 aosp/cm11 based roms is much worse as is the camera app.

Which leads me to, do I need to flash a GPE ruu or just a rom for the better audio/camera qualities?

Thank you.
[One (M7) Android Development] mitchst2:
You don't get the sense camera on anything but sense. I'm hoping that changes with the cameras appearance on Google play.

Oh right, I thought having a full GPE phone would allow the installation of HTC apps including the camera. Thanks for clearing that up.

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this in the 400+ page thread here, but I flashed a version 4.4.2 RUU Rooted version to my phone and upon booting, it already had the 4.4.3 system update ready to install. I was encouraged by this since I still had not flashed my recovery, but it did not install until I flashed the recovery in the firmware.

With all this said - If anyone is wanting to try this and stay with the rooted version, there is probably a good chance you will receive the 5.x update when it comes out. :)

The link for hboot 1.44 in the second post is dead. Has anyone a mirror for this hboot? Thank you.
[One (M7) Android Development] :
Ok i can get back to stock factory form using this method. But how can i get back to my current software version 6.09.401.10 ?

sorry i just want to confirm this thing before converting my m7 to gpe.
[One (M7) Android Development] liam_davenport:
Just flash the latest firmware which you want stock rom and recovery after
[One (M7) Android Development] danij3l:
install updates that phone offers via standard update
[One (M7) Android Development] 91ludesit:
The lollipop update update will not apply if the system has been modified in any way.
[One (M7) Android Development] :
it will show all updates incrementally ? really ? from the start ?
[One (M7) Android Development] danij3l:
yes, if you start from 1.29 RUU you will have a lot of updating to do :)
[One (M7) Android Development] :
we can do that ? i've flashed firmware before. But can i flash latest Stock sense firmware available (i.e. hboot 1.57) and the rom afterwards from GPE ?

If that's the case then why would one want to go back to 1.44 hboot ?
[One (M7) Android Development] Mucky2:
can someone send me the link of the latest GPE Firmware?

Some news: http://www.androidauthority.com/htc-one-m7-m8-lollipop-568022/
[One (M7) Android Development] jasalta387:
Probably you got this statement from this article http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...e-means-update-will-fail-system-modified-way/

However, last week I manually updated my Nexus 7 to lollipop. I looked into the updater-script and it does not verify the signature of the system partition. It still uses the old method of checking the signatures of individual files in the system partition. This means that your device may be rooted but the files being checked must be untouched.

My feeling is that the same will apply to other pre-lollipop devices, including the HTC One m7. Time will tell :o
[One (M7) Android Development] Mucky2:
can't find it???
[One (M7) Android Development] stefanorickeets:
Maybe it will only apply to future Lollipop updates (updates after 5.0).
[One (M7) Android Development] maritimesbob:
For going back to Sense, which I have done successfully. Is it better practise to go back to a stock Jellybean RUU or can I skip ahead and flash a Kitkat RUU and thus avoiding all those system updates (otas)? I was unsure so I went back to a Jellbean ruu and flashed hboot 1.44) and manually updated my way through (which took forever!!).
[One (M7) Android Development] panyan:
Will I be able to flash the RUU on my device? SuperCID, S-off Firewater, 6.09 Firmware, 1.57 Hboot

Or do I have to upgrade/downgrade something first?
[One (M7) Android Development] liam_davenport:
Nope you're all set to go :D

Unless you MID doesn't match one in the OP

sorry for the offtopic but bro can you PLEASE help me get S-OFF for my one with 1,57 hboot.. I'm not a noob but I tried so many roms/kernels but I cant get s-off with firewater.. IT everythimes shows me, its nasty in here need a chunk and then (REBOOT!!!!)...

Thanks alot man!
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
You might need to use Sunshine
[One (M7) Android Development] panyan:
I didnt get s-off with 1.57, i did it with 1.44 and then updated to 1.57

I *think*
[One (M7) Android Development] liam_davenport:
Have you tried CM11 an old release?
[One (M7) Android Development] Medfordite:
I had to use Sunshine on the HBOOT 1.57. I tried all other methods with no luck on my device and had no success. I downloaded Sunshine from their site and it did confirm it could S-off my phone so I went ahead and paid for it do so. It does not hurt anything to test if on your device.
[One (M7) Android Development] Guids:
when i flash the ruu zip file. Does this turn my recovery back to stock?

currently i have custom recovery, but I would like to be able to get the OTA for lollipop.
[One (M7) Android Development] liam_davenport:
yes it will replaces your Firmware/Radio Ect. Splash Screen, Recovery, Rom
[One (M7) Android Development] nickislauw:
Hi,

Yes I tried various roms + kernels including cm11.. but none of em worked. I guess I have no other choice but sunshine :) thanks anyway folks

You don't want to be flashing that... That's for the M8 and will either not work at all or cause you a lot of issues.

This is getting lollipop update starting tomorrow... Not long to wait ;)
[One (M7) Android Development] Kitser:
Oh my bad. Wrong topic. I own a M8
[One (M7) Android Development] shinji257:
I got my phone reflashed to gpe in prep for this. Hopefully it will come out tomorrow. I did get it as fine as 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 came to me fast.

EDIT: Do you guys think I should switch to ART pre update?
[One (M7) Android Development] saketh91:
it does not matter. until the system partition is not modified and you have a stock recovery, you can have OTA quite comfartably
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
It won't matter if you are on ART or Dalvik, the phone will take a long time to reboot regardless because the cache will be wiped and the apps will need to be recompiled.
[One (M7) Android Development] nickislauw:
Thanks bro, but it did not work.. I followed the exact same steps but its still not working..

bottle is empty, opening bottle 2 etc.

Then CHUNK (REBOOT!!)

If it is a recent unit you might have a chip that is incompatible with the way older methods. You might have to use sunshine to get soff.

Now, I wanna make a conversion. I downloaded teh files, however I read in the 2nd post about hboot 1.44 and backing it up. Can i just flash the ruu and firmware to get stock GPE and OTA to 5.0?
[One (M7) Android Development] maritimesbob:
I had the same hboot, mid and cid as you (I changed to 1111111111) and just flash the rooted ruu in the first post. All done :) Really simple.
[One (M7) Android Development] Sinistersky:
So the firmware needs no flashing, just the RUU? Does the RUU flash a stock recovery?
[One (M7) Android Development] maritimesbob:
Just flashed the ruu, it will downgrade the hboot I believe to 1.54. It will revert you back to stock recovery, which you'll need anyway for any OTAs.
[One (M7) Android Development] suku_patel_22:
Yes it flashes the stock recovery. I flashed the non-rooted version and successfully applied OTA from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4
[One (M7) Android Development] Sinistersky:
Thanks guys. Appreciate the fast response.
[One (M7) Android Development] suku_patel_22:
Well I can't seem to find the switch to ART. Was it removed in 4.4.4?

[One (M7) Android Development] maritimesbob:
I'm on supercid, s-off etc. To go back to Sense, can I flash a HTC kitkat ruu thus saving me from manual updating via OTA? I did do it one before but when back to Jellybean first and upgraded by OTA which took forever. I am in the UK, assuming I need find a European 4.4.3 ruu if there is one?

Thanks.
[One (M7) Android Development] xavierf:
GPE is not a sense rom...
[One (M7) Android Development] Jamalsid:
I think you have misunderstood what he said. It sounds like he is on GPE using the conversion RUU provided here but is asking about going back to sense based roms. You should be fine to go straight to the latest European RUU for the sense ROMs.

Might be worth installing all the firmware in order from Vomers Guide to make sure you get the latest drivers though.
[One (M7) Android Development] nickislauw:
I just installed the pre rooted version fine :) but whenever I open SuperSU it says that I have no binary installed and that I need to manually root it??? how can I fix this since I'm completely stock now (S-OFF)
[One (M7) Android Development] Jamalsid:
You will need to flash a custom recovery from fastboot and then use that custom recovery to flash SuperSU (which you can download from chainfire's website). To get the OTA when it drops though you will need to flash back the stock recovery.
[One (M7) Android Development] pet4a:
If I convert to GPe will I get the 4.4.4 and 5 OTA ?
[One (M7) Android Development] icephreaq:
Yes
[One (M7) Android Development] rijads:
1. What is exactly the difference between pre rooted and stock version ?

2. I flashed normal version, and updated to 4.4.4, once 5.0 comes out and I update, will installing custom recovery and flasing latest supersu be enough to obtain root back and (reflashing stock recovery for future updates) ?
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
1. Prerooted just means it's rooted already, stock has no root

2. No
[One (M7) Android Development] rijads:
So the pre rooted version has twrp or cwm including su and is unable to update with until stock recovery is flashed, and original one is vice versa (has stock recovery and can update but no root) ?
[One (M7) Android Development] suku_patel_22:
Yes
[One (M7) Android Development] kevindiehl:
I would have guessed both have the stock recovery and can obtain updates. Anyone know for sure?
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
A lot of people are saying that if you have root, the OTA will download, fail to install and brick the phone. Some people disagree with that so at this point there is no 100% sure answer.

It's up to you if you want to risk it with root.
[One (M7) Android Development] Darnell_Chat_TN:
Very easy to get root back. And flashing the latest SuperSU gives root without kernel mods. So there's plenty good reason to remove root and add it back fresh.
[One (M7) Android Development] madasahat:
I have updated and received OTA with root the main thing is to have stock recovery or the update will fail

stuck on google logo

Hi all,

I flashed rooted version of rom, but now, after CMD on PC said finished, I'm stuck at google boot logo, and its still restarting again and again...

I have sprint HTC One, I changed cid to superCID and MID to european version, after that I flashed rom... what i can do? I can go to bootloader, fastboot etc. but cant turn on system...
[One (M7) Android Development] icephreaq:
A Sprint HTC One is not compatible with this modification. You will need to flash a factory RUU to get back to working order. The Sprint One is CDMA not GSM and the One GPE is GSM.
[One (M7) Android Development] SkopiX:
thats true, but it support GSM WCDMA and European LTE... im using it here in the Czech Republic (middle of europe) so why it isnt working in GE ?
[One (M7) Android Development] Xeperu:
Probably before 5.0 GPE.
[One (M7) Android Development] icephreaq:
The GPE model to my knowledge was only sold in USA and is based on the GSM platform of the One. Some of the international versions and the CDMA versions of the One are different hardware revisions (different radios mainly). While there is some overlap in supported bands, the hardware is different and thus requiring different firmware. If you are not on a compatible model you will at best get bootloops and at worst a paperweight. Check the OP and see if your model is included. If not, you can probably find a GPE based port for your model that will run on top of the firmware for your device. This conversion is not ad simple as a regular rom flash as it replaced all of the partitions including low level ones like boot loader.
[One (M7) Android Development] JeffreyM:
I recently converted my one into GPE.

But now I installed custom kernel (elementx), twrp & root.

Will I get OTA update or do I have to flash it manually?
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
It won't install automatically unless you have the stock OTA, and a custom kernel might break the OTA installation.

My opinion, if you want the OTA to go well, be fully stock (stock recovery, no root, no custom kernel).

If you need root, wait for a ROM.
[One (M7) Android Development] JeffreyM:
What's the best solution?

Do it again all over (conversion)? Or just flash stock recovery and stock kernel?
[One (M7) Android Development] Nic2112:
Both should work, I'd flash the RUU just to be safe

Think how much effort the devs put into it, how much knowledge it takes to be able to produce things like sunshine (not only the exploit that made it possible but notice that sunshine is an app, and... Can you actually make an android app?) and how many times them devs were pulling their hair out of their heads after bricking a device. People are willing to pay 60$ for a game but 25$ for beeing able to to whatever you want with your device is steep? And I'm typing this form Poland when you get 1200PLN for month's work, used M7 like mine is bout 800PLN and 25$ is bout 90PLN. I paid for Sunshine and will pay for it again if I will be able to afford upgrade to M8.

Sunshine has been the easiest S-OFF ever!! I definitely don't regret paying the 25$. It's just the cost of a new shirt here!! For something I am gonna use daily, I don't mind that.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Exactly.. When I did the very first gpe conversion ruu for the m7 I bricked my device(just read the first couple pages of this very thread) So it cost me like was what? $5 or $600 to replace.. All for doing it for other people.. I didn't have to even attempt it after I bricked my first one (most people wouldnt) but I kept at it and risked bricking another device to give people a choice.. A choice that cost me $ but didn't cost them a dime.. So my response to his post was harsh but it's 100% truth. When I got my replacement m8 firewater didn't work.. I didn't think twice to pay for sunshine.
