[MENTION=4620395]pyrocide[/MENTION]

Thanks for the reply. I've been working through your post. First I wanna point out that the phone is in a working state know running the MagioRom and I can boot into TWRP recovery.

Here is the output for fastboot devices:

SH24PW402945 fastboot

I'm sure it is an s4. It is says Z520e and 1.5 ghz on the box. I got the phone from ebay, so I'm not 100% which carrier it was on, but there was a T-Mobile sim still in the phone :silly:. The CID reads H3G though and the phone is not locked to a carrier/network since my giffgaff sim works fine.

I got adb to work. Thanks for that :good:.

I relocked the bootloader with fastboot oem lock (it know says 'relocked'). Running the suggested RUU ends in an error 155 during the veryfiying signature step.
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
And you ran the RUU while you were in fastboot usb mode?

based on Google

"ERROR [155~159]: IMAGE ERROR

One of these error messages will appear when you use the incorrect RUU to update and the image file size is larger than the Flash ROM size. In this case, download the correct RUU version and try again."

So the RUU is wrong, we need to find out specifically what version of OneS it is.

run this command while in fasboot usb mode

fastboot getvar all

post modelid: XXXXXXXXXX
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
The output of that:

Guy had the same problem and same modelid

Used this RUU and was able to go back to stock.

Hopefully this works.
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
Thanks for the help. Appreciate it.

That RUU ended in an 131 error, unfortunately.
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
At this point i would suggest doing all Euro RUUs. That should have worked considering the modelid is the same for that guy and it worked. Sorry man but I don't know what else to suggest other than to do each RUU. If none of them work then something is definitely wrong.
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
Would I need to reflash a/the stock recovery to make for a successful RUU flash?
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
The list of the RUU's I tried. Non worked... Really frustrating.

[HTC One S] pyrocide:
No, running the RUU erases custom recovery & flashes stock recovery.

Did all of the downloads MD5 checkout correctly?

Also, just to make sure we are ruling everything out. Did you run the RUU by double clicking or right clicking and Run as Administrator? If you just did it by double clicking rerun the one I posted that fixed the other guys issue by using Run as Administrator. Again be sure to be in fastboot usb mode and that "fastboot devices" command shows your device in the output. Make sure you use a usb 2.0 port in case of compatibility issues and the cable that came with the phone if possible.
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
I used another laptop. Running the suggested RUU again resulted in the same 131 error. I ran as admin and did an md5 check. I'd say the other RUU's will also result in an error again... :rolleyes:
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
Did some digging.

Error 155 - usually wrong recovery.img /wrong boot.img

Error 140 - wrong bootloader / bootloader unlocked

Error 131 - wrong RUU for your device

So, if one is giving you the 155 error then try with the stock recovery and do the RUU.

The phone does say relocked in bootloader right? Try doing fastboot oem lock again and run the RUU that gave you the 155 error.
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
Wow, that still didn't work.

So I flashed stock recovery and relocked the bootloader. Then I tried three RUU's, both the H3G RUU's and the HTC Europe RUU mentoined before. The H3G's ended up in a 155 error, the HTC Europe in a 131.

So, still no succes. This is getting annoying, right... :p? Any other suggestions besides flushing the One S down the toilet?

Regards.
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
Im at a loss man. At this point I would email HTC with the getvar all info and see what they say and which RUU they give you to try. If nothing else itll help narrow down exactly what model phone it is.
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
Just a thought. Since the 155 error could point to both a wrong recovery.img or a wrong boot.img, I could try flashing another (stock) boot.img. Maybe the custom rom's boot.img is in the way. So what boot.img would I need?
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
So I did that. I extracted the boot.img from de H3G RUU and flashed it. I also extracted the recovery and flashed that. I then tried different scenario's with the H3G, the HTC Europe and the O2 UK RUU's. Non worked. The H3G ended up in 155, the others in 131.

Anyone else any ideas on this besides emailing HTC?
[HTC One S] pyrocide:
You could try to decompile the 155 error exe and fastboot flash boot boot.img but I am very nervous that might screw something up. I still suggest contacting HTC directly to have their input on what exactly RUU is needed and if you do have the right one, why it is not working.
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
<T133845><DEBUG><OUT>FAILED (remote: 44 hboot version check fail)</OUT>

Got the line above out the RUU log files. This is the 155 error RUU.

This raises two question:

Is it possible to get the expected hboot version number out the decompiled RUU (decompiled = the stuff placed in user/temp)?

Is it possible to down/upgrade hboot with any of the hboot versions posted here or would I run the risk of softbricking my One S then?
[HTC One S] tominozh:
Don't flash any of that hboots. You will brick.

Just try to s-off, follow facepalm method in dev forum.

After that you can flash any ruu.
[HTC One S] H2Oxide:
Muchas gracias.

Will that be flashing an RUU by just running the executable (so that I end up with an hight hboot as well)?
[HTC One S] tominozh:
Yes, ruu will change your hboot, radio and so on. Getting your phone s-off means that all your partions have any security set off. So you can flash any ruu. That can be tricky, make sure you will run ruu corresponding your original cid, other ones can not work properly. I.e. if you flash tmob US ruu you may have bad receptions or so.

On the other side. I remember when I was trying to run ruu I got 155 error. After I rebooted phone to bootloader ( fasboot USB) and restarted laptop everything went well. But you probably already tried that.
[HTC One S] edmun:
Guys. Basically I will dig out this topic because this is the only one that proves that I am not the only one here.

This is what I had yesterday and I was trying to find the correct RUU for my Htc One S (S4) / aka Ville.

Today I have ended with:

And just to clarify and make a small summary.

I don't know what is mine version-main.

H-Boot is the 2.13 version

Baseband is 1.11.50.05.28

I was able to unlock the bootloader with unlock.code

I was able to install TWRM Recovery (currently I have v 2.6.0.0.)

I was able to install su (superuser) priviliges

I don't know exactly how - but rumrunner has made the job (after 2 days of a fight with it) and I have S-OFF

And also - I was able to use revona to remove TAMPERED info (thank you for that)

Yesterday I had CID: H3G__001 (H3G_01)

I was able to change the CID to 11111111 with fastboot as I have found on xda (yupi!).

And ok.. now let's slow down.

I am almost 30 years old, I have degree in IT but I am not a big a phone geek (ok.. maybe a little when I was flashing Samsung i-780 with Windows Mobile 6.5).

To understand what people are talking about in threads regarding One S - I had to spend a lot of time, reading, reading and reading.

So please - do not use so many shortcuts or slang words in replies - I will get lost really easily.

I have now couple of questions and please correct me if I am wrong.

I should be able to install any RUU I want, because I have S-OFF and CID 11111111?

(sorry for such a question but wherever I will check with question: which RUU I can use to recover my phone from a disaster - I am getting some different misconfusing answers)

If I would like to update HBOOT - what precautions I should take and should I update the HBOOT?

I believe that updating HBOOT to at least 2.15 will provide me ability to install Android 4.4.1? (currently I am on Android 4.3.1 CyanogenMod 10.2.0-ville) - is that correct?

And final thing - I have read a lot removing this bloody red information from the booting screen saying:

This build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside of htc

But I am lost. I have a list of files which can be used to remove it - but none of them is matching my model ID (all files are for modelid: 0P3P51000 when I do have PJ4010000)

Is this relevant?

I am hoping to hear from you guys!

If there will be a chance that I can help anyway (because of my different phone details - I am happy to help)
[HTC One S] edmun:
Guys... I know it's not an emergency situation but is there anyone that could point me into the correct directions?
[HTC One S] Rapier:
You can change the model ID (MID) and CID in the text file inside the hboot zip. So it can mach your model ID and won't give errors.

Hi Mate, would you be able to help me s-off. I've literally been trying for a week! I have the same phone boot, model etc as yours from your description but i've not been able to get rumrunner to S-off. It just deletes the file and doesn't run any commands.

[Sony Xperia L] Sparksys:
You can update without locking bootloader,, just flash a .ftf from flashtool
[Sony Xperia L] drganbds:
Will flashing .ftf locks bootloader?

How do we lock bootloader if I don't backup my Ta image?
[Sony Xperia L] ZN6:
Flashing .ftf doesnt lock your bootloader. AFAIK, you can always lock you bootloader even you didnt backup your TA before unlock it.

But even you lock you bootloader, OTA update will brick your device and break some functionality like download music info or Bravia Engine (for device that have BE I mean) because you have lost TA forever. Locking you phone back just in case you want your warranty back.

And yep, this thread should be in Q&A section.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
put in a new SSD and got Windows 8.1, did a fresh install on a new hard-drive, everything's been working great, My nexus 4 has worked with with ADB./Fastboot and I've been able to transfer files to and from it in MTP mode. Been like that for about 4 days until about 3 hours ago, I had Windows Explorer crash, had to run Task Manager, end the process, and then manually restart explorer.exe My device was plugged in when this happened, and afterwards, I noticed that I could no longer see my Nexus 4 under the Devices & Drives section of "This Computer" (My Computer had a better ring to it lol) First I tried rebooting both my laptop and my Nexus 4, then I tried uninstalled the drivers, rebooting, re-installing, and then rebooting again. Did that like 4 times now, each time re-downloading the drivers, and doing an MD5 hash to create a Checksum, and checking them each time. Also to no avail. ADB shows my device serial number when i enter : ADB Devices, but says it's unauthorized, so if I try anything like: ADB Reboot Bootloader, it says Device is not authorized.

So ! I don't understand wtf is going on. Was working fine before. The drivers are up to date, I just flashed the Official OTA image, and was on the leaked image prior to that. Then earlier this evening I switched to the newest version of the Nexus 5 Port, and everything was still working fine, hadn't made any changes in a couple hours before this happened. When I install the drivers, It acts like it worked. Instead of saying "NEXUS 4" under Other Devices in my Device Manager, it says Composite ADB Interface under Android Devices and MTP under Portable Devices. Sometimes tho the MTP entry will still show the Yellow Exclamation Point. But goes away. Don't know whats up with that either.

Also, it wont let me install drivers unless I am in MTP mode, which Usually you can install them regardless (tho I never tried in Camera mode, I am just assuming about that one) Usually I install drivers without MTP or Camera modes checked, but now if I try it, it says that Windows Cant find the Drivers, even tho I am obviously browsing for them myself and selecting them. And just now I tried updating instead of re-installing them, and it keeps saying that Windows has determined they are the most up to date.

So I am out of I ideas. I even updated windows media player cause that's what fixed my issue on Day 1 of running Windows 8.1 when it wouldn't recognize it at all. So I don't know. Sorry for the long post but I wanted to make sure I got everything in there so hopefully someone can narrow down what the issue is. Cause I've been at it for 3 hours, haven't slept yet, my Nexus 5 gets here today, and I need to get this fixed before I sell it to my buddy. Its brand new, only 15 days old.*

Any thoughts ?*
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
First, connect your Nexus 4 and use Device Manager to uninstall both MTP and ADB devices, make sure to check the box to delete the driver files as well. Then uninstall any other usb or adb drivers for other Android devices.

Then disable USB Debugging on the phone and get MTP to work first, Windows should be able to install it automatically.

For ADB, Windows 8 will not allow to install unsigned driver. To install unsigned driver, reboot Windows 8 into Advanced startup and press F7 at the menu to disable driver signature (Google it if you don't know how). Although you could install Google USB driver which is signed I think, I recommend using Universal Naked Driver (link in sig.)

You need to authorize it from your phone, when you connect your phone to the PC with USB Debugging turned on, a toast message on the phone will ask you to authorize the device.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
ok I am gonna try that now. And as far as the part about my phone being unauthorized. I already knew about the notification that pops up, i was waiting for it to happen. Never did tho. Maybe it will happen after I do the rest of what you said. thanks, i will post my results in a min
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
no matter what i do, i cant get MTP working. When i uninstall the ADB entry in Device Manager it gives me the check-box option for removing drivers as well, but not on MTP. And now it wont even give me the option to uninstall, update, or anything at all, even tho I uninstalled it already so it should at least give me the option to install drivers. Even tho it's showing up in Device Manager as a Portable device, if I look in Printers and Devices, it shows up as unspecified device. Disabled USB Debugging, and all that. it says its working but it wont show up in My Computer>Devices and Drives still. For some reason ever once in awhile it will pop up with the Yellow Exclamation Point tho, only for a brief second tho. other then that, its shows it like it's running correctly. Also, nothing pops up saying that windows is installing drivers when i plug it in. Which in Win 7, XP, etc, it always did. Does this not happen in Windows 8.1 ?

Also, under Driver Details, which is the only option it lets me click on MTP, it says the drivers are from 2006 lol

Update - Just reinstalled the drivers for ADB and enabled USB Debugging, and everything is still saying its working even tho its not. But when I take my phone out of MTP mode it shows up in device manager under "Other Devices" as Nexus4, with a Yellow Exclamation, and it gives me the option to update drivers, so i tried, but it says Windows Can't find my driver. This is very frustrating.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mumaster20:
Had this problem aswell, which was caused by the N version of Windows 8 versions.

These versions dont have Windows Media Player istalled, which is needed for MTP to work.

So to fix your problem you need to download that latest Windows Media Player (WMP) from microsoft and install that.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
I dont have the N version, I have WMP installed, i mentioend your fix in the OP. Had to update it, and it worked. It was working fine for the last few days, then it stopped working suddenly

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gt-kingz:
Vouch. Since I use win8.1 (no n version) Mtp doesnt work. I tried all known drivers, disabled driver signature and so on. The only working combination for me is Usb Debugging + PTP. Then I use file manager to cut the files. Airdroid would be an alternative as well.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silicon Knight:
update - SOLVED * Kind of.....I say kind of cause I still don't know what caused it but apparently Flashing to the Nexus 5 Port fixed the issue lol. I am assuming something pertaining to the way USB connectivity is controlled by Android got corrupted, and a fresh install was in order. Whatever it was, it worked and i am back in business. thanks to all those who attempted to help.
