no need to be locked.

the 15mb OTA you got was a minor update, the 4.4 is checking everything in the /system partition so if you deleted something or pushed something the OTA will fail.

mine failed because i pushed the stock AOSP browser the first time, root the second time.
[One (M7) Android Development] :
Noob question: I've been wanting to do this for a long time and converted my One a few days ago. Was a little disappointed and wanted to go back. I now have the firmware 3.62.401.1 again. But the start screen still shows the Google logo instead of the HTC. What did I do wrong?
[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
did you run the WWE .401 RUU? if yes you should have the bootsplash restored to HTC logo.
[One (M7) Android Development] Rocker19943:
yes, I understood that already, I'm worry about hboot, its kinda modded now or what, black screen and some other changes, now im asking:

Is it SAFE to use a stock RUU to get the One back to stock?
[One (M7) Android Development] :
I flashed the 3.62.401.1 firmware zip from vomer's thread. I thought that would do it.
[One (M7) Android Development] johnblundon:
I know this is a super NOOB question and I know I could maybe read the 324 pages of stuff about this and find an answer but... could someone tell me briefly what the advantages of doing this would be?? I'm running stock 4.4 GPE ROM now and it seems like everything is fine... what would be the advantage of going through this process?

Again sorry for the noob question but I'm very curious :)
[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
firmware.zip does not provide bootsplash
[One (M7) Android Development] :
Yeah, I know now. :D Searching desperately for the RUU you where talking about. Can you show me the right one please?
[One (M7) Android Development] RakOne:

Hey again,

I flashed the phone using the latest 4.4 RUU and it works perfectly. So many thanks and now, i know how to fixe it ;)

But i went further : i booted into bootloader and flashed what i think is the latest recoveries (tried both):

- TWRP touch recovery v2.6.3.0 from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2173870 --> worked

- ClockworkMod Touch v6.0.4.5 recovery from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2173863 --> did not work

And i managed to install the Android 4.4 KRT16S Google Play Edition - Rooted/Busybox/Odexed

so many thanks to all!

[One (M7) Android Development] RossLH:
I use the GravityBox module with the Xposed framework. Haven't tried it on 4.4 yet though.
[One (M7) Android Development] RakOne:
OK I will try it, and another question, how good are daylight pictures with GE Camera? I finished converting today very late and the livingroom-light-pictures are horrible :/

Gesendet von meinem HTC One mit Tapatalk
[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
install the 2.6.3.3 version of TWRP, is the latest :)
[One (M7) Android Development] kalapyu:
another noob question: what's the difference between this RUU and the ROM 4.4 Rooted/Busybox/Odexed ??

I just dont get it. I thought the ROOM had busybox / gravity box installed? It seems they are not. Can i install the Xposed framework on the GPE RUU?

Really lost here. Don't know which to choose...
[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
click me!

applies like the 4.4 RUU, fastboot oem rebootRUU and then write this one on your One to get stock Sense.

---------- Post added at 10:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:24 PM ----------

stock nonrooted RUU => clean system.img from HTC dump, in combination with GOOGL001 cid and stock recovery provides OTA capability.

bigxie's odexed rooted ZIP => custom modified system partition with some addons like root/busybox/init.d support or kernel, no future OTA from Google/HTC will apply
[One (M7) Android Development] kalapyu:
Thanks

Stock : i cannot install xposed framework and busybox because there is no root ? Or can i install xposed and busybox?
[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
you can manually root using a custom recovery and ther chainfire zip

you can install busybox using the app in the playstore

you can install xposed 2.4b1 from the apk in the official thread

:)
[One (M7) Android Development] kalapyu:
yeah so it's easier to use the ROM then...

I grants root immediatly and allow ti install xposed and THEN busybox.

eventually it comes to the exact same result

:D

Guys let's get back on topic.. A lot of these posts that are off topic are cluttering up the thread and preventing people who really need help from getting it because they are buried among the off topic stuff..
[One (M7) Android Development] tier~:
Just wanted to say thanks for this RUU. Just converted my One over to a Google Edition with minimal hassle.

So far so good.
[One (M7) Android Development] Deadeye*:
Superb thank you so much. A quick look at my home screen nothing special but i do like transparency from Nova

graffixnyc whats your paypal?, will donate for your hard work. Nevermind found it :) I transferred you directly from paypal and not using Donate Button, hope should be ok

For community is there a way to remove 3 page dot and have menu button, without using kernel? or is kernel for this RUU only solution? i'm guessing it will brake OTA?
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Thanks for the donation. Very much appreciated :)

As far as I know you need a custom kernel. While I think you can disable it without a kernel, you won't be able to map menu to another key without a kernel.

Hi guys

I need help!

Something went really wrong when I tryed return to the 4.3 RUU GPE.

I followed the procedure in the OP, but after the error that is suposed to happend (FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)), my pc lost connection to the phone.

After that, it never recognized my phone again in fastboot mode and I get this red line on the fastboot informations.

[One (M7) Android Development] ach1:
I've installed the Google Experience Launcher apk after 4.4, and noticed the phone responds notably slower - even as far as the screen waking up when I press the Power button.

Is there some sort of cache/temporary/dump files lol that I can clean out (in hope of speeding things up) after installing different recoveries and such ??
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Seriously.. Wtf does changing your launcher and it being laggy have to do with the topic/RUU? ? This isn't a stop in and ask your general kit kat questions/support thread.. If it's not about flashing the RUU or issues that arise from flashing the RUU it does not belong in this thread..
[One (M7) Android Development] IamFlynn:
Go back and read.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
It seems from the error you got that something happened with the zip. Did you check the md5? Could possibly be a bad download.. That's the first I've seen of that error. I know it's not the RUU because I have run it (each version) multiple times in testing..

CID for ota?

Used this on my AT&T HTC One and worked perfectly! However I have a quick question. Is it necessary to change the CID to google's in order to receive OTA'S (Currently on AT&T's)? Also, I flashed the 4.4 unrooted ruu, do I need to flash the recovery file on the front page?

Thanks!

GalaxyUser50
[One (M7) Android Development] RakOne:
Yes there is a way, you need to install the Xposed Framework Beta for KitKat and and than You can remove the dots :)

I don't think it mess up the ota update, coz it is an apk :b

[One (M7) Android Development] aanidaani:
So I've gone through all the posts in this thread and I can't seem to find a clear answer on how to get OTA working.

I flashed the 4.4 RUU on my AT&T HTC One and it works great. I also changed my CID to 11111111. My question is, will I get the OTA updates or do I need to flash something else? Thanks guys!

Btw, I searched for it and found your response. Which means I too am unable to search hard enough.
[One (M7) Android Development] RakOne:
Anybody?
[One (M7) Android Development] monkboy24:
Did u put the backed up sense ROM on your computer before running the GE Ruu? If u didn't it will be deleted after u flash the RUU. But to answer your question yes u can restore your sense ROM after converting to GE. U do not have to change your hboot or anything like that. Just flash twrp custom recovery and put the backup in the twrp folder and restore.
[One (M7) Android Development] RakOne:
Yeah I backed up my Sense ROM, thank you for answering mate :)
[One (M7) Android Development] RossLH:
....and this is why you should read the whole post beforehand. I just lost everything on my SD card. Oops.

[One (M7) Android Development] SaHiLzZ:
Yes it will work. But frankly if you don't know that bell was GSM for a few years and were not able to search for it. You should stop and turn around from this thread.

[One (M7) Android Development] jehowe:
And I received the full 4.4 OTA with root. As far as I know OTA requires stock recovery, regardless of root status.
[One (M7) Android Development] pigr8:
some people got it, some not.

i got the OTA having the prerooted but when it rebooted in recovery it fails to flash.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
You can be rooted and get the OTA. But only rooted. No other system changes, no system apps removed, no files modified.. Basically as long as you are rooted but the rest is stock you should get the OTA 's I've been getting them since 4.3 and I've always been rooted.

Now the debate is if you get this with super Cid. People claimed to get the 4.3 ota without changing their MID and without changing the Cid. From the looks from the update script in the OTA. It looks pretty much for all the US cids as being valid. T-Mobile, AT&T, Google Edition.. And even super Cid. You can see this by opening info. Text file in the ruu zip. It's kinda funny because that means Google and or HTC know that people are flashing it to devices if they are checking for the other CIds
[One (M7) Android Development] play1962:
graffixnyc what about the pre rooted RUU in the OP has anything else been changed, is it stock with root?
[One (M7) Android Development] xperia x root:
4.4 laggy?

Somehow 4.4 sucks compared to 4.3.

Battery pretty much the same but imo 4.4 lags more. Scrolling etc. is on my other m7 with 4.3 just a bit snappier.( especially in chrome). Big apps start faster and so on.... So for me this update isnt really an advantage cause i most care about performance.

Is it only me or what u others think about this less crunchy kit kat?
[One (M7) Android Development] play1962:
I agree 4.4 seems a little less responsive and I haven't tried ART yet
[One (M7) Android Development] astmacca:
Have just re-done the RUU flashing. Wanted as stock as possible to try out ART. I had installed this rom before, but for some reason it would not swap from Dalvik to ART. I had mucked around with kernels which may have had something to do with that.

ART swap over works now, and as far as apps, all but 1 or two of the old games i had on there for the offspring seems to work.

Will run this a while and see how it goes. Certainly i have no issues with lag or loading times. Battery life will be the interesting one for me.
[One (M7) Android Development] kveldrud:

is not only inside, without reason i must enter pin again

Nope, you will need to have stock recovery and be "unrooted" to get OTA updates.

So, what you can do is flash custom recovery and flash SuperSU. When there is an OTA, unroot and flash stock recovery.

i'm in the bootloader now but don't know what to do really. i'd hate to lose my voice memos and a few pictures, but if installing the 4.4 RUU is the surest bet than i guess i'll have to deal with it. it seems my 4.3 got borked.

I flashed the Stock(non-rooted) 4.4-3.58.1700.5 RUU Zip. Everything works as the instructions. Afterward, the build number is "KRT16S.H5 release-keys". Not sure why it has the extra "release-keys" in it. Another strange thing I found is in Google Now search box, the text is: Search, or say "Google". Should it be "OK Google" instead?

---------- Post added at 07:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 AM ----------

I was on the same boat. Then I download the 4.4 RUU zip file and flash it. Luckily, all my pics are backup automatically to Google+. The good thing is all my apps installed buy themselves. Only thing is the apps setup have to manually done. Still better than manually install the app one by one. Other side-affects are build number has the words "release-keys" at the end and the text in Google Now search is "Search, or say "Google". I believe the correct fraise is say "OK Google". I doubt this RUU file is the same as the OTA upgrade.
[One (M7) Android Development] graffixnyc:
You're doubt is wrong. It came directly from my device which got the ota. I pulled it myself and put the RUU together so please know what you are talking about before you make assumptions. The release keys in the build number is no big deal at all. Change it in the build.prop if you want to.. Don't know why they left it there but they did. Also are you using the Google Experience launcher to get the ok Google to work? I'm using the Google launcher and the updated search and "ok google" works for me from the home screen.
[One (M7) Android Development] toiday:
Thanks [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] for clarify and all your works for making this possible. About the "OK Google", I went in Google Now setting and downloaded/installed the latest language package and my Google Now have the fraise "OK Google".
