[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonestarmedic:
Morning everyone,

I have been reading for days trying to get a handle on downgrading my phone to JB 4.3. I am s-off, unlocked, rooted, with current TWRP installed. I also am using SuperSu. I suspect I am just not using the right combination of programming. My first thought is that I need the correct Hboot to go with the ROM I want. Currently I am on Android 4.4.2 with sense 5.5. Software is 4.18.502.7 CL302626. I have loaded a custom Hboot which removed the developer red text. and have also removed the tampered warning with a bit of help from here. I am quite happy with remaining s-off and unlocked. I am decent with ADB commands. I understand Linux fairly well, and can even use a hex editor in a crude way.

The last 4.3 RUU_exe and RUU_zip would not complete. The EXE stated not compatible. The ZIP failed looking for the Android-info_txt. I looked in the ZIP file thinking it might need modified and did not find the Android-info file at all. Lead me to believe that I may not be hitting the correct file for my use. So, at the risk of asking a repeated question I have finally come here for a push in the right direction.

I have not messed with all of this since I modded my old EVO 4G from Sprint. The new Android system worked well in stock form. I started down this road because of my desire to move back to 4.3

And I did attempt to use the search function but did not find exactly what I want. Appreciate any help I may be able to get.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
No! you don't have to flash hboot to be able to flash a rom, you can flash a 4.4 Rom even if i.e you are on hboot 1.44.

I hope so, never turn S-ON with a modded hboot or you will probably brick your phone. Anyway,

never

S-ON!

What version of RUU.exe and zip? Please also post the output of fastboot getvar all except IMEI. What was the error code of the ruu.exe and what was the output when attempting to flash the ruu.zip? you were in fastboot ruu mode right? Did you md5 check both the zip and exe?

android-info.txt should be inside ruu.zip, however if you have the correct ruu for your mid/cid you should not have to modify the android-info.txt
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonestarmedic:
Answers

Will do my best to answer.

1) Your example was a newer ROM on an older Hboot. I am going to older ROM on newer Hboot. Any difference.

2) No intention of turning S-on. Understand risks of modified Hboot. I do have stock Hboot if needed.

3) The RUU.exe is RUU_M7_UL_SENSE 5.0_MR_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3_Radio_4A19.3263.13_10.38j.1157.04_release_334235_signed_2

4) The RUU.zip is RUU Zip M7_UL_JB43_Sense50_MR_Cingular_US_3.17.502.3-decrypted

5) I did not copy the prompt screne on the ADB failure. I believe it was a parsing failure 24 on the Android-info.txt

6) Yes, using fastboot mode. Showing Fastboot USB and entering into the screen with the silver HTC logo.

7) I am honestly not sure if I checked both items for md5 sums.

8) I have to copy and paste the get var yet.

Working on the rest.

Reflashin

I was using the stock Hboot from the OTA via AT&T. I put in the modified one to drop the ugly tampered stuff. Though that might have had something to do with my problem. And tried again with the modified Hboot.

Checked both md5s and good to go there.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonestarmedic:
Back to 4.3 succsessfully

Ok, long process of learning. Found my problem was with the RUU that I was using. The md5 was ok. It just was not what was needed for using via fastboot.

Do not know what it is, but it has the following inside the zip file:

1) META INF folder

2)system folder

3)boot.img

Sure does not work for fastboot!!! I found a zip on here that had the right file name and was odexed. Downloaded, checked the md5, then unzipped to read the Android-info.txt file. All looked right. Made a backup of phone and loaded it on in.

Succsess!!! Of course I had to put TWRP back in and root the phone.

So, brief sequence of what I did:

1) OTA update from 4.3 to 4.4.2 caused problems with applications

2) Phone in stock form with Hboot 1.56

3) Unlocked phone - HTCdev website used

4) Rooted phone with SuperSU and installed TWRP

5) Played with ROMS and did not like any of them, decided to revert back to 4,3

6) Phone would not S-off with stock ROM using Rumrunner

7) Ended up with the combination of Android Revolution HD and Firewater. Used my UBUNTU Linux to perform S-off.

8) Back-up performed

9) Used zip file and fastboot to load 4.3

10) Now have Hboot 1.56 with 4.3 unlocked, stock Hboot, and S-off.

Thanks for listening to my rantings.

Maybe this will help someone else with an AT&T HTC One.

[HTC Tornado] KINetics:
Sorry to post in the Tornado forum guys, but I'm trying to solve a problem and I think only you guys can help me. I've got TomTom 5 installed on the Moto Q but after starting the program, the screen is oriented in portrait mode, however, the Q is natively in landscape.

Unfortunately, the displayed images are unreadable and just jumbled. I know that there is an option within TomTom to rotate the screen but without being able read the screens, its a practice in futility.

Can someone that has TomTom installed on their Tornado do me a favor. Can you walk me through the exact steps and button presses from the launch of the program to the rotate screen option. The button should look like an upside down smiley face.

I'm hoping that if I correctly hit the button sequence, the screen will rotate and that I'll be able to make the menus and program legible. Cheers.

So my htc one is stuck in what i think you call the boot loader. I powered it off the other day and now it is stuck in the boot loader. Every button I click on the boot loader always brings me back to the boot loader. I have rooted my phone and it is unlocked with s on and running a custom rom.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Truth6199:
Hard to say what your issue is as you are vague on the rom and what you mean as in boot loader as people use it interchangeable with the boot screen and or the actually boot loader (Hboot) menu. Either way, Try to enter recovery (Power and volume down buttons at the same time and or hold volume down button as phone is restarting until you enter recovery). You should also enter fastboot and erase cache and restart and see if that works. Make sure the rom you have is Correct for your phone as well.

So my problem is I can not go anywhere but this menu every option I click always brings me back I the same menu with boot loader reboot reboot boo loader and power down. I can't get Into recovery or power up in my rom. And when I plug it in to charge it sows a charging symbol for a minute then it goes away and back to the menu.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
then if you are on a mac, open a terminal windows, change directory to the folder where you have adb and fastboot.

./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot

or

./fastboot-mac erase cache
./fastboot-mac reboot

depending if your fastboot is named ''fastboot'' or ''fastboot-mac''

anyway I don't understand why you don't know how to do these commands. You said in your 1st post you have unlocked your bootloader, rooted and flashed a custom rom... so you should know how to use fastboot and adb commands right?

So your phone is correctly recognized by your mac.

You can either flash a custom recovery for you phone M4ul (htc one mini) + a custom rom

Flash the recovery and clear cache:

./fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img
./fastboot erase cache
./fastboot reboot-bootloader

push or sideload the rom using adb from twrp recovery

then install the rom

or

wait to have a pc and use the ruu.exe to reset your phone back to stock.

relock bootloader:

fastboot oem lock

run the ruu.exe

Btw you should ask your thread to be moved to the htc one mini forum (M4UL).

Superuser app has this error "There are currently no superuser app policies." then "Superuser binary must be updated" attempting to update results to error "There was an error installing superuser. "

I rooted the phone again with the same CWM ver. file. attempted to flash superuser but it errored and aborted installation. I rebooted and installed rom manager so that I could update CWM. That errored out as well. Root verifier confirms there's no root on the phone. I have installed busy box but it has the same error message no root access.

I thought to root with CWM ver 6.0.4.6 but installation aborted. I tried TWRP but it aborted as well. Only CWM 5.5 works which my normal routed is then to flash superuser, install rom manager and then have it update to CWM to ver 6.xx. But his time none of these is working. How do I regain root?
