I recently acquired tasker but whenever I try to scan using cell near it does not find any cell data. I'm wanted to use it to turn my WiFi on so I'm wondering if anyone else is having this problem and if there are any fixes.

I have been having call issues with my phone and need to send it back to VZW.

This phone was Rooted, with S-Off and Unlocked in the Bootloader, I started researching today how to put it back to stock and in the process I have simply soft bricked my phone and have tried and exhausted everything I could find.

When I reboot into RUU and try to flash the Decrypted file for my 1.10.65.10 it fails:

C:\fastboot>fastboot flash zip M7RUU.zip

I am not able to go into or load any recovery files either, I am only able to do fastboot commands and no adb commands.

I really have searched all over xda forums and have not found the answer

My HTC currently will not boot and is able to fastboot only.

It is Displaying:

Your all good. So why are you getting it replaced after we just got it to stock?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tomwatez:
Been having lots of issues with breaking up and dropped calls, not to mention the speaker is crackling..Verizon exhausted the troubleshooting and said we will send you a replacement. I wanted to try putting it back to stock to see if those things were still happening... So now that it is stock and I had s-off previously should I be good to go to redo s-off and rom, root it if I chose to keep it and it works better :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
Hope it all works out...I fear the supply of pre-4.3 phones is dwindling
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tomwatez:
The directions and link that was listed worked perfectly and I'm back up and running.

Thank you All! Lets see if the one I get is pre 4.3 or not.. I may just send it back if mine is working better.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tomwatez:
Got the replacement today, sounds and looks great.. Best of all it was on 4.2.2 and 1.10.605.10, s-on, however the hboot is on 1.54.

I'm trying s-off right now and it seems to be going good so far, will report if it doesn't unlock...

recovery doesn't work. so far I'm trying to get something to work with fastboot, in other words, searching for RUU which will flash and make it work. if you have something in mind and can help me, please do so. THANKS!!!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
How did you flash a custom rom without a working custom recovery? ......and you realize that rom you flashed is not for a verizon HTC One. But you should still be able to enter recovery and flash the correct rom after pushing it through ADB. What did you do to break the recovery?

Edit - /sigh. It seems every single thing you did was for the wrong phone. You used stuff for the international model, not the VZW model. You are probably screwed until someone can post an encrypted 4.4.2 RUU. And you are not s-off, so you can't downgrade to the proper VZW ruu.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Gizmoe:
Furthermore how did recovery even work with s on and locked boot loader. Your phone is in a bad state. No RUU will work until you have s off and you need to unlock your bootloader in order to use recovery or fastboot flash a boot img.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
returned s-on in order to flash stock ruu but didn't happen. also when it was s-off and now when it's s-on it gives same errors like "too many links for example". is there a way around it? I read that have to try stock signed roms and that way it can work but so far no luck. every time is this error for too many links...

Edit - /sigh. It seems every single thing you did was for the wrong phone. You used stuff for the international model, not the VZW model. You are probably screwed until someone can post an encrypted 4.4.2 RUU. And you are not s-off, so you can't downgrade to the proper VZW ruu. - so encrypted 4.4.2 RUU is the only way? and for example for the HD2 there is task29, is there something like this for HTC ONE?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
you NEVER need to return to s-on. It only prevents you from working on stuff. The reason you can't use a VZW RUU is because you have 1.56 hboot which is part of the 3.11.605.1 OS, and that RUU is not available. If you were s-off, you could flash any of the VZW HTC one ruu's and it would work. You screwed yourself by turning s-on, which means there is only one ruu you can flash, and it is not available.

---------- Post added at 04:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:06 AM ----------

As far as i can tell - the only way to fix your phone is to wait for an encrypted 3.11.605.1 VZW RUU file.

Edit - and in the future.........use the correct forum to get your info lol. You are in this mess because of not using the Verizon HTC One forum. Hopefully someone publishes the encrypted 4.4.2 m7vzw for you sometime soon.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] aer0zer0:
Sounds about right
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
Okey, I udnerstand. One thing I don't understand - when it was s-off and I tried to install other roms (verizon ones also) it kept giving same error for example "too many links"?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
Install other roms??? You install other roms from recovery, not RUU mode. RUU mode is only for stock RUU which replaces everything, boot image, recovery, system, etc.

If you were s-off, there were 4 or 5 ruu''s you could use to restore your phone. the 4.2, 4.2.2, 4.3 version at the very least, i believe there are more that only changed firmware. Custom roms - install through recovery.

....and I question which forum you got info for those from also, because both things you linked in this discussion were from the incorrect forum. What RUU from verizon did you get that error from? Do you have a link?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
Yes, I got that I was in the wrong section. I downloaded RUU files but when I try to start them, they didn't worked.

edit: ...and obviously the ones I've downloaded were not the correct ones also...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
I'm guessing you got the wrong RUU files. Do you have a link to the ones that failed when you were s-off?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
I'm searching them right now again. Yes, they were wrong. The thing is that I didn't even manage to start them. I run them as admin and nothing happens. My pc is fine, working, no problems. Thank you for your time and help. Please let me know if I can try something. I really appreciate all that right now. THANKS!!!!

edit: when do you think this RUU will be available and where should I look for it?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
Heh, VZW RUU's are not exe files. So yea, wrong files. VZW RUU's have to be run through fastboot oem RUU mode, you need adb/fastboot binaries installed, and have to push the RUU through command lines in windows or linux.

You can try pushing this, the 4.3 RUU, but i don't think it will work.

http://goo.gl/JEkyCk

Here is how -

Place the zip in your fastboot/adb directory on your computer.

Put the device in fastboot mode

(Volume down and power until menu appears, select fastboot using power button)

Connect the device to the computer

Enter the following commands from terminal/command prompt in the fastboot directory, one at a time:

fastboot oem rebootRUU (this puts the device in RUU mode)

fastboot flash zip rom.zip (rename file to rom.zip)

It will say that the update did not finish, to flush again, so repeat the above step:

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

It always fails and asks you to flush on the first attempt as it redoes partitions, so that is why you have to run the flash command twice. After the command window says "finished" you can use "fastboot reboot" to end RUU mode on the phone.

Edit - i have no idea when the signed RUU for 4.4.2 will be available, if ever. Verizon sucks. The only thing i could find was an OTA which won't work unless you had a working version of stock 4.3 on the phone.

Just so you know - NEVER turn s-on unless you are sending your phone in on warranty, and never do that until the very last thing. Once you go s-on you rely on exploits to do anything except flash the matching RUU file. S-off = being able to flash any RUU for your model, not just the current one, plus if you had s-off you could just flash firmware, recovery then a rom and be done with this.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
I'll do it right now and let you know after that what happened...

edit: do you think it's worth a shot to try or no?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
May as well. It won't hurt anything.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
how old is the phone? It is s-on and locked, you can probably get warranty replacement. Just don't tell them how it got to that point.

NM, forgot the tampered flag. You could try to hardbrick it though, then get warranty lol
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Gizmoe:
Lol yeah hard brick might do it. Though without s off or bootloader unlock you can't even do that. Best bet may be a Jtag.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
What do you mean?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Gizmoe:
http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/htc-one-m7-jtag-s-off-modification-service/

May be worth a shot. If you can at least get s off back you can fix device.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
Do you think they can make it s-off?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Gizmoe:
I know jtags can recover hard bricks so I would guess probably so. Just get in touch with them and see what they can do for you. Maybe they will s off and install a Rom for you.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ccarr313:
Jtag can do it, but it means shipping your phone off and having them disassemble it. Or spending over 1000 bucks on a card and doing it yourself.

My idea - open up a charger and short circuit a capacitor, hook it up to the phone and let it fry it. lmao

Then just say it stopped working, you have no idea what happened. Won't boot up, and you used all stock accesories with it. :) (assuming you are under warranty!)

Mind you - this is a last ditch effort. But I know for a fact if you hardbrick a phone they will replace it on warranty no questions asked, I've done it twice. =X
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dohcvtec:
hahaha that's a nice way of looking to things. it's not in warranty. about Jtag, just checked the prices. for 75$ they'll give you s-off. shiping is free depending if you rush or no - your choice how fast you want it. I got in touch with them and I'm waiting for response.

edit: 03/31 - today I sent my phone to Jtag. looking forward to see what happens!

edit1: 04/19 - I still haven't received my phone back since I sent it. They said it will be ready on or before 8th April, now it's 19th. On the 9th they told me that they are running little late on schedule and were suppose to send it on 10th - obviously they ddin't. I sent them a couple of emails but nobody answers back...

edit2: 04/29 - still haven't received my phone but I got email from them that they had some problems. They told me: We hope to have your order completed by the end of day on Wednesday April 23.

edit3: 05/01 - wrote them again - so far no response, tried to call - nobody answers

edit4: 05/07 - still no development, no package, no answer from them by email, no answer from them by phone. will try calling them again today

edit5: 05/07 - I did called them today, they answered, told me that tonight they will fix my phone and send it back to me tomorrow. They told me that they will send me email about it with the tracking number. Lets see what happens!

edit6: 05/12 - called them today and after couple of hours received email that the device is shipped and I have tracking number from USPS which when I just checked it says it's not found but will check tomorrow before making conclusions!

Yesterday I spoke with them over the phone. The lady explained me that this night (which was Wednesday because that's when I spoke with her), they are going to fix my phone and they were going to send it today. They were suppose to call me or email me that they have sent the phone and they were suppose to send me the tracking number. So far - nothing, still waiting. Was all day at work seminar and tomorrow again but I will find time to see what is going on. Feel free to share your opinions. This is the reason why I am writing here.
