Thank you. Yes, I read quite a lot yesterday and found out that I have followed the steps properly. So I am wondering if it has got anything to do with the boot.img from the PA ROM? :confused:

And yes I did a nandroid backup previously as well, however, I was not aware of how to restore it because I couldn't access the recovery mode. Can I do the restore using the FlashTool? or some other tool in such a scenario?

I downloaded "pa_togari-4.5-BETA1-20140805.zip" available in this link: http://aospal.hostingsharedbox.com/aospal/roms/togari/ . Should I try the last stable release rather than the beta one?

I am sorry for this noobish question, but what exactly is the purpose of "boot.img"? Is it the kernel of the new ROM that I am going to install? or is it something else? I kinda think that the problem might have been with the way I flashed the boot.img previously. I used the option "SELECT SYSTEM TO FLASH" under the fastboot of FlashTool in order to do so. Is it wrong? Should I use the "SELECT KERNEL TO FLASH"?

Thank you again :)

EDIT: I used the "SELECT KERNEL TO FLASH" option in the Flashtool, to flash the boot.img and I was able to flash the PA 4+ successfully! :D..Thank you!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] blueether:
Good to hear you got it sorted, but I'll run through what you did wrong...

So you now know it wasn't the boot.img :laugh:

Normally the way to recover would be to flash a boot.img that works and then enter recovery rand restore, easy when you flash the boot.img correctly

The boot image is the kernel and recovery backed into one (it's a Sony thing :rolleyes:) and it belongs on the /boot partition

I think you have figured that one out now :cyclops:. So what you did was write the kernel and recovery to the /system partition, not to where it belongs ie /boot

You can also use the "select kernel to boot (hotboot)" (or what ever words it uses) to boot a kernel/recovery and not change the one on the /boot partition - can be handy at times

I hope that helps you understand some bits about your new Sony ZU

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
hey guys,

i just wanted to go back to stock with my HTC ONE. I flashed the Guru Reset M7 3.62.401.1.zip on my device but now it won't find any system updates. Also the recovery seems to be broken. Even after flashing the recovery seperatly the phone only shows a red triangle when i try to enter the stock recovery.

It also does not find any updates with the SuperCID.

Do you have any idea how to fix that?

I have the international Version of the HTC ONE.

Thanks in advance!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
post your fastboot getvar all please without imei and serial number, be sure to remove these two items before posting, there have been a lot of users on here lately looking for replacement imei numbers etc, I just had a PM asking me for one, with that info they could clone your phone.

next, are you sure the 401 ruu is yours, that's why I want your fastboot getvar all.

are you s-off ?

the red triangle is stock recovery.

if you are s-off, change your CID back to HTC__001, super cid is not in the 401 ruu's or OTA's

Why not run this RUU it should put everything to stock since you are S-OFF?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
thanks fpr your help!

i tried to install the RUU but "fastboot.exe" crashes during the installation :/
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
What exactly do you mean ? The RUU crashes in the middle of the installation ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
This is waht happens
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
the text says htc_fastboot.exe doesn't work anymore
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Try uninstalling and reinstalling HTC Sync drivers. Or you can also try downloading the updated Android SDK and recreate the fastboot folder
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
didn't change a thing :/

here is what i do:

0. deactivate anti- virus/firewall

1. start the RUU.exe

2. put my phone into fastboot mode

3. connect my phone via USB 2.0

4. start the flash progress

then after a few seconds htc_fastboot. exe crashes and the programm stops
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Which OS are you using ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
windows 8.1 64bit
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Dont start the RUU first. First put the phone in fastboot mode, get the getvar to check if all's in order.

Once you getvar shows, it means the device is connected. After that, try the RUU

If still no luck, use RUU.zip
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
again no change... it always crashes within the first second :(

do you think it could work on ubuntu? i have a portable version! but my linux skill is -10.. do you think you could do that via temviever?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Im not sure that the portable version will work. Because even in Vmware, i couldnt get the adb drivers to work. Live CD would be a much better option IMO
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
sounds great! ...what is a Live CD and how does it work? :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
A live CD is basically an OS running on a USB/CD. Instead of the portable version which runs within the Windows OS, you will boot directly from the USB containing Ubuntu. Nothing will happen to your existing Windows; once you're done with the RUU flashing process, just shut down the computer and unplug the USB

To get it running, download the Ubuntu image and click Download:

http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/

Then, to prepare the bootable USB stick, this link:

unetbootin.net

Download that software. Choose the correct Ubuntu version and create the stick. Once you're done/ have doubts, let me know
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
okay i'm as good as done.. what's next? ;p
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Cool. Now, you have to change the boot priority to the USB as first booting option. If you know how to do so, then proceed

If you don't, then there are two ways to depending on the pre-installed OS on your PC

Did your computer come with Windows 8/8.1 pre-installed or did it come with Win7 or older ?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
i know how to change the priority :p

it's custom built :)

and i first installed windows 8.1 on it.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Good to know :)

So once you've booted from the USB, choose the option to 'Try Ubuntu without installing'

Once you have Ubuntu up and running, open terminal and paste these commands one by one:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
for some reason it does not want to start from the usb stick... give me a moment pls
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
okay i am on ubuntu now and did everything as you said ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
good. Now check whether the drivers are properly installed.

To do that, enable usb debugging on the phone. Then, open the program 'terminal' (press the windows button on the keyboard to search)

Then, type 'adb devices' in terminal
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
it says that adb is not installed an when i follow the given instructions to install it, it says "package android-tools-adb can't be found

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ adb devices

The program 'adb' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:

sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

You will have to enable the component called 'universe'

what now ? :D
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
why are you doing all of this, there's nothing wrong with the guru reset file you had, ive ran it a million times without any problems, just make sure its run from twrp 2.6.3.3 recovery, and you select wipe data, install stock radio and install stock recovery during the aroma installer, you should get OTA's after that, its always worked for me.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
for me too but not this time and i don't know why :/
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Now, you'll have to flash the RUU.zip
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
I think the OTA's arnt working at the moment as HTC are currently upgrading their servers, their is another person on this forum who is also having problems getting OTA's.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
okay that would be an easy answer! is there a way to install OTAs manually? an if yes.. how and which one do i need to install?

thanks for the info!!

waht zip? Oo
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
easiest way for you is do this as you are s-off this should be easy, you need twrp 2.6.3.3 on your phone:

download stock odexed 5.11.401.10 rom from here, push it to your internal storage and flash it: http://www.androidrevolution.org/downloader/download.php?file=One_5.11.401.10_odexed.zip its full stock rom.

then install stock firmware from here, download 5.11.401.10 from here and flash it, don't forget too flash twice:

http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/401/

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip (name of firmware).zip
fastboot flash zip (name of firmware).zip
if successful then:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
if failed, report back here first.

you will then be full stock 4.4.2 android kitkat with sense 6.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Alright, if you're going the other route. But just FYI, the RUU.exe wont work in Linux for obvious reasons. So, on Mac and Linux, the RUU to be flashed is in the .zip format

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Im really sorry......... But your phone is badly messed. Its currently "hard bricked". I have no experience in repairing firmware-messed phones.

But im really baffled as to why an M7 firmware would mess up your phone. Did you run the command twice ?

Because it will fail the first time. Second time will actually flash the firmware.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
is Unbrick_M7_UL.tar.gz the correct file to downlaod?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
yes, then extract it and run retrieve or revive, I forget now which one it is, you also need to have adb and fastboot installed, the rest is automated, just make sure you phone is plugged into the computer.

did your battery die whilst flashing the firmware, with the trouble you were having with RUU's etc, I wouldn't be surprised if your phone was dying anyway, a lot of people experiencing dead phones seems to be just over a year life expectancy.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
what does he mean bz Run revive.sh AS ROOT? how do i do that?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fabivons:
with which command do i run revive.sh?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raghav kapur:
Root in Linux is the same as Command Prompt as adminstrator in Windows

To get root elevation, type this command in terminal without quotation marks "sudo su"

Then itll ask you to enter your password. Type the password and hit enter
