If your device is s-off yes, but you can't downgrade while s-on. It won't brick your phone with s-on the flash will just fail.

Flashify for firmware update OK ???

Hi guys,

I'm on ARHD 81.0 now, S-OFF (HTC ONE M7, UL).

I have had big problems with USB drivers on my Win 8.1 Pro.

So, I found the "Flashify" app.

My question 1 is:

Can I use "Flashify" to flash the newest firmware ??

My question 2 is:

What of the firmware I shoud use ??

From this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2485651

Firmware 5.11.1540.9

or

from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2365506

Firmware 4.06.1540.2

I'm a bit confused with the correct choice and flashing way possible (considering my UBS drivers problems).

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thank you, pal.

Will give it a shot.
[One (M7) Android Development] snowblind2142:
wanted to say thank you

The problem: About 2 weeks ago I noticed whilst at home, my signal bar would go from its usual 2 bar, to full. I was well chuffed till I got a call and it bounced (like I killed the call) leaving a missed call, tried to call back, network busy = no call.

Looking for a solution: as it was a call related issue initially happening in and out the house, I assumed it was something I had flashed (probably a problem with a nightly or such) so reverted, nothing. Flashed a sense ROM, nothing, cm11, still the same.

You get the idea.

At this point I'm shrinking maybe its a radio/firmware issue? As I am on o2 I was reluctant previously due to the lack of RUU's out there for them to flash any firmware/radios, I came here.

Fantastic tut and had everything I needed :D thank you

Still no difference.... I was getting worried at this point..

So I found a RUU for o2 on htc1guru but struggled to get it to run on my HP netbook. Borrowing another laptop in finally managed to get the RUU to run, returning to stock I breathed a sigh of relief.

Boot and set her up, boom, there's the full signal again... Still no calls..

Furious I call O2 to see if they have any record of anything their end, only to find out..

"Yeah, we upgraded the masts in your area and are having problems. Were not sure what it is, but we will let you know when its fixed. Sorry..."

I was just happy to know I hadn't damaged my phone.

I wanted to share this with you as no where in my travels did a single post indicate the possibility it could your carrier giving you problems.

At least on the up side I've got a boot loader unlocked, super cid,rooted phone with no tampered text anymore!

I don't normally do cosmetic changes bellow ROM level. Seems unnecessary to me.

Thank you again for you're comprehensive thread (and your links -return to stock, radios, htc1guru)

In order to get s-off on my phone a while back I had to downgrade my hboot to 1.44. Since then I have treated anything that might affect hboot like the plague. However recently I have been getting some odd behaviour when it comes to MMS, and it seems like following this guide might alleviate those issues. Couple questions however:

If I already have s-off, is it possible to downgrade back to hboot 1.44 after completing this guide?

Perhaps more importantly, will there be any reason to do so?
[One (M7) Android Development] Danny201281:
Once your s-off your s-off unless you physically change back to s-on with fastboot command write secureflag3. Not even an ruu will make your phone s-on again.

And yes with s-off you can downgrade hboot anytime. And the main reason for doing so is for returning to stock 100% for warranty. You'll be fine with the new hboot you can just downgrade if/when you need to.

Can I S-off my HTC One?

Guys,

I need a little help. I want to S-Off my Phone and update the firmware. But I read in this topic that phones with eMMCs 9001 aren't able to S-Off. Is this true or didn't I understand what the guy meant? Is this hardware related?

Is there an other way to upgrade my firmware?
[One (M7) Android Development] rayporsche:
It's doable even with the 9001 numbers, did mine using 'Rumrunner'......

[One (M7) Android Development] warriorvibhu:
[MENTION=1363323]vomer[/MENTION] I am mentioning OP here as i want OP to quote me and put me in the first post this is an important piece of information as i know many people struggling with it::

I finally have ONE with no camera tint issues and or Mic / speaker issues ..It took me more than 7 replacements .. There was always one or the other problem while T-Mobile was great in replacing the phones, lately i had to get it replaced by HTC due to it being out of stock with my carrier .. now the main info ..... --

My HTC One was Bootloader unlocked and no matter what i tried to S-off i would get a Whelp message with Firewater and every other S-Off method failed, my HBoot = 1.57 .. I tried several kernels and ROMs including CM11 and failed ....I had to S-OFF to return it to stock .....when everything i tried failed ...I had to send my phone back and HTC charged me 200 USD .. I faced the same situation with the new ONE when i tried to S-Off ..then i used this ROM / Kernel Combo.... .. and SUCCESS .. Note that i used the ROM as is and did not flash any external kernels..

In short anyone failing to S-Off .. even if on HBOOT 1.57 .. use this ROM and Firewater and you will achieve the S-OFF....... Just go to http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/ and follow the Instructions (normal, rooted device method) and you would be good to go with S-Off
[One (M7) Android Development] Quistnix:
Sorry if this is a stupid question, I couldn't find an answer using the search: are those firmwares for the M7UL? Do I need to check other stuff to see if it's compatible? On my previous phone I had to check a couple of ID's to see if the firmware was compatible.

Thanks!

Hi guys,

i've been away from a while (since 4.3 latest release).

Hooping to update but need to clarify first some point to avoid any surprise.

Can I update firmware to latest 6.09.401.5 (can this be update direct from old version 3.62.401.1 (latest 4.3 base) or should pass from all 4.4 base versions to avoid any issue?)?

Another possible solution for S-OFF

Alright everyone, finally after researching and trying for hours I have now successfully S-off with the use of rumrunner + VMware 10. I was getting same error of failure many times on both rumrunner and revone. I am now mentioning my step by step method which i applied and its actually worked for me. :laugh:

1- You must have Windows 7 - 32bit to run any s-off method like rumrunner or revone (Highly recommend as I have tested on Win 8, 8.1 - 64bit and its not working even I had all drivers and files).

2- If you don't have Windows 7 - 32bit right now then don't worry because I did all the stuff on VMware 10 so its tested and safe. You can have VMware 10 and install Windows 7 - 32 bit over it and you are good to go. (Use .iso image of Windows 7 - 32bit directly when setting up VMware for the first time, its hassle free).

3- Install drivers of HTC from here: http://d-h.st/4LL (Link from OP)

4- ADB files from here: http://d-h.st/ja1 (Link from OP)

5- I have used rumrunner method as my Hboot was 1.55 but you can try any method from OP according to your Hboot version.

6- Now the important part. If you are using VMware then double check the data cable by right clicking on the usb icon placed at lower right bottom and select "Connect (Disconnect from Host)". The phone will now connected to VMware. Try

OR

If you are not using VMware and you have Windows 7 - 32bit installed on your system then move on to next step.

7- Test it with 'adb devices' command that phone is working properly.

8- Make sure you are not using any damaged cable or lose one. Keep your phone at static place before starting process and exit, disable any antivirus or firewall you have (Must step).

9- Now Follow instructions of s-off methods from OP ... If this works, just hit thanks ... :)

It looks like fastboot can't find the Unlock_code.bin, are you sure you've typed the path correctly.

Try this in the command line type the first part of the command leaving a space on the end

fastboot flash unlocktoken

then drag and drop the Unlock_code.bin into the command window. This will add the full file path to the command. Then hit enter.

Question. I updated to twrp 2.7.1.2 and my version-main is still coming up blank. I assumed that would fix the problem. Can anyone shed some light on this?
[One (M7) Android Development] Danny201281:
Once it's been wiped changing to a different recovery without the bug won't fix it. You need to flash your firmware to restore your blank version main. Then you can use 2.7.1.2 to prevent it happening again ;)

If you found my posts helpful, Please click thanks :good:
[One (M7) Android Development] papei:
Ok thanks. So I should just go ahead and flash and it should restore the version main again? Prior to flashing twrp my version-main was 4.19.161.11. I noted that that is not even listed in the OP. Would it be a problem just to jump to the latest firmware?
[One (M7) Android Development] Danny201281:
I don't recommend skipping firmware updates, it can brick your phone. You need to flash 5.xx.161.x then 6.xx.161.x to update.

Or you can just flash your current firmware to restore the version main without update. ;)

All I can find is the 5.xx.161.x firmware.zip here http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/161/

[One (M7) Android Development] Danny201281:
Firmware is flashed with fastboot in RUU mode, not in recovery.

Flashing signed firmware would overwrite a custom recovery with Stock recovery anyway. Unless it's been modified with Stock recovery removed. Then it would not be signed and and s-off would be required to use it. :good:
