That ruu will not work for your phone :( as I say there is no ruu for out H3G phone.

When the bootloader was unlocked it will have wipe some preload data from the phone which will prevent the OTA from working.

After you flash the reset.zip everything will be back to stock and ota updates will work but you will need to unlock the bootloader again. I'll assume You don't have the original unlock token since you didn't unlock it in the first place.

So you need to go to www.htcdev.com to get a new token. You will need register an account if you don't have one. Then follow the procedure to unlock the bootloader. Then flash a custom recovery if needed and install the reset Rom. You don't need the radio though as you already have the same one. ;) then reboot the phone you should start receiving ota immediately. If not you can use the check for updates option in Settings>about to force it.

And yes it's fine to take ota's with your bootloader unlocked, good luck let me know how it goes or if you need anymore help.:good:

It is a while ago that I tried to get my HTC one to stock android. I was hoping that OTA would work.

Yesterday HTC rolled out the 4.4.3 update in the Netherlands, and I can report that my OTA did the job and was enabled to grabb the update with OTA. So I have the original HTC android back on my phone right now and it runs superb. I post this because I read a lot of people who want back to stock.

update hboot

Dear Members

I have received message for ota update to 4.06.1540.3, but I'm afraid to do this, because I have HBOOT 1.44 and it's probability risk of brick after update, or I am mistaken?

Whether you can advise about steps of the updating HTC One ?

I cannot make right choice the version of firmware for update Hboot, from ver.1.44 to newer, as I understood , at first is necessary to install intermediate FW in avoiding the risk of brick, and secondly: root and data of my phone will be recovered after update to latest version of Android?

I will be grateful for assistance.

[One (M7) General] thedan55:
Ok thank you so much that worked perfectly!! On 442 now.

So he wants to root right so when L comes out I'll have to reset it again correct? Is there one for kk reset? Just so that I can keep it on hand.
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Just make a nandroid of the Stock Rom before rooting. Then when android L comes you can just restore the nandroid, reflash stock recovery and your ready for ota's again ;)

So reflash custom recovery (TWRP 2.6.3.3 Recommended)

Boot into recovery and make a backup.

Then reboot twrp will ask if you want to root the device, say yes. Once the phone boots copy the backup to your pc for safe keeping until it's needed.

If you need stock recovery I can link it for you but won't be untill tomorrow.
[One (M7) General] CamoGeko:
Can you run fastboot getvar all and post the output here after you remove the serial no and imei no.
[One (M7) General] thedan55:
Thanks so much for the help. I genuinely wish there was something I could do in return.

if you could link it that would be helpful

[One (M7) General] thedan55:
ive been setting the m7 up for him installing xposed etc but just realised theres another update for sense 6!!!! obviously its not going to update due to the custom recovery and possibly the root??

ive checked here for the recovery but i cant find one that matches the phone http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2545227

once i flash the recovery can i update without going back to the nandroid?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
No you need the stock unmolested Rom for ota to work, but assuming you have installed a sense 6 Rom any way you could just update the firmware manually but to be honest I found the sense 6 H3G firmware 5.xx was not that good anyway. I had much worse mobile signal so ended up reverting back to the 4.xx and it was better.

I can provide a link to the firmware.zip for 5.xx if you want it but once you update you will need s-off if you decide you want to go back to an older firmware. Personally I would wait soon the new 6.xx firmware will be available which I hope will be an improvement.
[One (M7) General] thedan55:
no im still on stock, just rooted. ok so for ota i have to put the nandroid back on and the stock recovery, cool. link me the stock recovery and the 5xx firmware, ill ask my nephew if he wants it. im assuming that i flash it via twrp ?

edit: yeah he wants me to update it.
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/771/

Download the 4.20.771.17.zip from the above link. Open the zip on the pc and extract the recovery.img and put it in your Fastboot folder.

Then restore the nandroid stock Rom. Reboot the phone to the bootloader and flash the recovery.img with Fastboot.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

After that you should be able to take the final ota. Which will also update you to 5.xx firmware. Don't forget to make a new nandroid before rooting the phone so you can get next update.
[One (M7) General] thedan55:
Brilliant thanks. Also why do you recommend TWRP 2633 when 27xx is out
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Because some newer versions of twrp write a bad instruction to the misc partition for bootloader messages, that inadvertently wipes OS Version information from the getvar and the bootloader. And the ones that don't I have had problems installing roms with.

2.6.3.3 just works it's rock solid stable ;)
[One (M7) General] thedan55:
Last question, the stock recovery in 4.20.771.17.zip , now that ive take the last ota, when i want to go back to stock i should still use the same stock recovery thats in 4.20.771.17.zip . i dont need to use one from this one 5.12.771.3.zip
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
The 4.20.771.17 will work but it may hang during the update and you will need to reboot with power+volume down to get the update to continue.

So it's much easier to use the correct recovery for your firmware. Which I assume is now 5.12.771.3.
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
Will flashing an older (but correct) Guru reset also downgrade Hboot/radio/etc on an S-Off device?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
No. Guru Reset will reset Rom recovery and radio. But not hboot or firmware.

But since your s-off you could flash reset zip. Then manually downgrade your firmware to match with the reset.zip.
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
Thanks for the info. But I flashed it and it won't touch at all...? Same with any Rom on 1.29.651.10 for my Sprint M7. It just won't touch at all...
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
What do you mean by "it won't touch", touch screen doesn't work?

1.29.651.10 is fairly old have you tried this one http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_sprint_3-04-651-2-zip/

Matching firmware here

http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/651/
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
Yeah it wouldnt touch at all as if they killed touch if your Hboot is too advanced with a super old firmware or something. I'm trying to get on 4.1.2 in order to unlock the Sprint One for domestic use. As far as I understand, the work can only be done on 4.1.2 for domestic.
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Do you have an otg device? If so you can connect a usb mouse to operate a non function touch screen. Update through ota after that your screen should work.
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
I can recover the device just fine it's already working but what I mean is when I downgrade the firmware from my current one to 1.29.651.10 it will not touch on THAT version specifically. I need that version to work in order to unlock the device for domestic use. Neither the Guru reset, nor the flashable rom nor the custom viperboy Rom that is based on 1.29.651.10 will have touch when flashed. I'm not trying to unlock for international, but for domestic.
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Have you tried ruu?

http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu-zip-m7_wls_jb_50_sprint_1-29-651-10_ruu_decrypted-zip/
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
The RUU is an actual zip file that when unzipped just has a setup file, a .cab file and a bunch of other files, not a regular. Exe RUU. When I run the setup I get an error that another setup is running which is false, I rebooted my PC and verified via Task Manager from Windows that there aren't any setups running. In short, the RUU gives me an error. If it was a one .exe RUU as usual, I could run it fine like I did to my One S.
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
You have to flash it in ruu mode. Rename the ruu to ruu.zip and put it in your Fastboot folder.

Boot your phone into the bootloader

fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU

Your phone will boot to a black screen with silver HTC LOGO.

fastboot flash zip ruu.zip

The first flash is just a pre update so flash again

fastboot flash zip ruu.zip

The progress bar on the phone won't reach 100% this is normal. As long as the command window has finished it's out put it's done.

fastboot reboot-bootloader
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
hmm that's new going to give it a shot; downloading the RUU now. Does the RUU downgrade Hboot, etc?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Yep complete ruu should downgrade everything. Hboot 1.44 I think. Could be wrong though as its for Sprint. Good luck k :)
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
I was JUST about to begin until I remembered, I'm supposed to lock the boot loader first correct?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Not with s-off should flash unlocked with s-off
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:
Alright here we go...lol
[One (M7) General] Crossvxm:

[One (M7) General] thedan55:
Brilliant. Any idea when 4.4.3 will be ready for the h3g Variant?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
I used to check here but now it says updates for M8. http://www.htc.com/uk/go/htc-software-updates/

I assume the update will be pushed to both devices at the same time. This is the best indication we have at the moment.

When the status for Three changes to "push to customer" it should be avalible.

[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Ok so the firmware.zip, where did it come from? Downloaded direct or Extracted from OTA and what is the version your trying to flash. I assume it's from 4.xx to 5.xx.

Either way you need to complete the flash your bootloader shows your stuck between 2 versions.

Judging from the locked status of your bootloader, your phone is completely stock yes?
[One (M7) General] oneinwww:
it is 5.28.605.2 zip file, and it come from llabtoofer.com webisete, one of them guys tried to flash it remotely but didn't succeed. he said that it was official firmware signed by htc.
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
The guy who tried to flash remotely, did you inform him your phone is Unmodified stock?

I'm not sure you should be flashing firmware only, as you will have a mis match between firmware and Rom which may cause this issue. You would have been better off installing the full ota.

Do you have warranty on the device still? If not you may need to unlock your bootloader to get this fixed.
[One (M7) General] oneinwww:
yes I have informed, before flashing I first filled up a form, so he was informed, I haven't warranty. ok and is it possible to unlock bootloader in that case? and how of course and how do you think is the phone still fixable?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Ok first download this ota file. Then open it in your pc and extract the file called firmware.zip and try to flash it. If the flash is successful, check to see if the phone boots up.

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712466856

If not then we can look at unlocking the bootloader. Once unlocked you should be able to boot with the mis match version no. And install the ota manually. As long as you can access the bootloader and fastboot is working we should be able to unlock it with htcdev.
[One (M7) General] oneinwww:
happened same again, see pictures. fastboot doesn't complete flashing process. sorry I am wasting your time, I am very thankful for your help. and what now?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Hey it's cool I don't feel your wasting my time if I did I'd have stopped trying to help by now ;)

This is not an everyday problem so it's safer to troubleshoot before we do anything drastic. Plus Verizion phones tend to be trickier than others anyway.

Sorry if I seem to ask a lot of questions but the more I know the easier it is form me to give quality advice.

So have you tried doing a factory reset with stock recovery, may be worth it to reset partitions before flashing the firmware.

You can do this by selecting recovery from the bootloader, first you will get just a black screen after some time you will see a picture of a phone with red exclamation.

Hold Volume up and press the power button to reveal the recovery menu. Ignore the can't mount sdcard errors it's normal in stock recovery.

Do a factory reset reboot to bootloader and try flash firmware once more.

Edit:- One more thing have you tried using a different usb cable and/or usb port?
[One (M7) General] oneinwww:
ok now feel better. so I tried, but get same. and now unlocking bootloader is only way? also could it be a hardware problem?
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
I Wouldn't like to say it's not hardware related at this point but personally I'm not convinced it is.

So just a couple more things I'd like you to try if possible.

Do you have htcsync installed, it's known to cause some problems when flashing RUU's And technically were trying to do that but only with firmware. So uninstall htcsync but leave the drivers installed and try this driver alongside them

https://www.dropbox.com/s/nm9igbliqqk69p5/HTCDriver.exe?dl=0

If possible try a different computer for doing the flash. And make sure you don't have an anti virus program running.

If these fail I think we'll go with unlocking your bootloader if your ok with that. With no warranty you've got nothing to lose really.

What version of Windows are you using?
[One (M7) General] oneinwww:
good news, uninstalled htc sync and it flashed and got message completed successfully, but green line on phone didn't complete. and what is next step, also in bootloader menu is shown just os-5.28.605.2. see pictures
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
Great :) it normal for the progress bar to stop short so no worries there.

Does the phone boot now? I suspect not as we still have a version mis match bit that's ok

[One (M7) General] Danny201281:

you will need to unlock the bootloader.

Register an account and follow the unlocking procedure.

Once that's done the phone should boot, don't worry if it doesn't well cross that bridge when we get there.
