[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] URDMOSTWANTED:
The Stock Rom Doesnt appear to be stock

I have successfully installed the ROM and have Lollipop up and running.

But the rom doesn't appear to be exactly as the official GPE M7. The app drawer and home screen was not updated to the lollipop build. Why is that? Is it the ROM or did i do something wrong?

I have unlocked the bootloader

S-OFF

Changed MID AND CID

Finally installed RUU unrooted but the app drawer and home screen bugs me out

I have stock Recovery as well but with a red triangle and a dead droid. Holding volume up and power button simply restarts the phone

Things that I haven't done

1. Flashing Firmware

2.Flashing hboot

3. Fashing stock recovery

I have attached some screen shots

Please help me. Should I try Flashing everything is this it?

These may be silly questions...

Would I still receive OTA updates if I dont installed the 5.01 Stock recovery?

Also which is advised for me to install, the Unrooted or rooted RUU?

Does going from 4.XXX to 5.XXX actually brick the phone? ( From the #2 post)

Howdy everyone,

Long time lurker... finally decided to start an account. :)

I was wondering if anyone can provide some input. I'm running into an issue here where I previously converted my phone to a GPe edition. However I sent it off for service and attempted to return it to stock. They sent it back claiming it is repaired and so now I'm trying to reflash it with 5.0.1. I am currently at 4.4.3 GPe, hboot 1.54. However, I am running into an issue where it wont flash the OTA and I cant seem to successfully download the RUU from graffixnyc's website (keeps killing the connection or so).

Any recommendations?

Thank you

First of all thank you for this ROM. I had been struggling for days and this has been a life saver.

I am facing bluetooth connectivity issues after upgrading, the phone connects to the car but no voice comes from the speakers. It comes from the phone instead, I have route the voice to phone and then back to car. It takes about 5-10 seconds of setting unsetting and then I get voice in car speakers. I have tried un-pairing and re-pairing but that does not help. Is anyone else having same issue? Is there another update that I was supposed to do after this? I just flash the ROM, I did not do any OTA etc.?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jacky1017:
Sorry if this has already been answered, but I couldn't find any working solution. Basically I went through all the steps all the way up until Flashing the RUU and I had a problem. I know that I was supposed to Flash twice, but my phone was stuck on the HTC logo screen after the first attempt and I had to reboot the device. After rebooting the device, my computer no longer recognizes my phone in fastboot mode, but I still see it on my device manager with an error message. When I am connected in normal mode, the computer recognizes it. Has anyone encountered this problem or know how to solve it. The phone is still fully functional and all my HTC drivers are updated. Thanks in advance!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gehess:
Hi. First, a big thank you as I converted my HTC One M7 to GPE via the 5.0.1 rooted RUU and it works fine.

Second, when the 5.1 OTA becomes available, will my current GPE setup notify me there's an update? And will this notification be a persistent thing until I update?

Reason I ask is it's my understanding that if I unroot my device, put a stock recovery on, and apply the OTA it may be possible that the 5.1 update may prevent me from subsequently rooting and putting a custom recovery back easily.

Does this sound right/likely? If so, I'd rather not update via OTA (I'll apply the 5.1 rooted RUU when it's available), but I'd also like not to have a persistent notification telling me to update. Is there an option to disable GPE from checking for updates, or at least from notifying me about them?

Thanks again for all your work and help.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gehess:
So does this Q&A thread just exist for the lulz, or is there a different thread I should have been redirected to?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Instead of complaining, you can bump your question

yes you'll be notified for the update.

Phone will update fine if everything is stock.

Don't think 5.1 will prevent to root. You'll need to put back a custom recovery and re-root with the latest su binaries

Disabling the system update notification require root, afaik.

Agree, sometime these kind of threads "devDB- Q&A" are not really good for asking question, not everyone read them. You can bump your question or post directly in the Q&A forum for more visibility.

I'll keep that in mind. That said I have been on a few forums where double-posting/bumping is frowned upon.

Also, while I'm grateful someone answered my question, it is a shame it's evident that it takes being a bit snippy to do so.

Hi,

I did this conversion out of curiosity and then upgraded to 5.1. Regardless of how satisfied I was with the ROM, I like SENSE to much so I decided to go back, but then I got some issues.

I followed the return to SENSE guide from the second post, but with no luck. I am S-OFF, unlocked.

I can update the Hboot to any version, but when I try to install the rom for the specific version I get the following errors:

HI Guys

Does anyone have the 5.1.1 RUU for the HTC One m7 ?

I have tried to flash the RUU for 4.4.2 then updating normaly (without flashing the OTA with recovery).

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
As official HTC updates for One M7 ends with Android ver 5.02, I decided, as many of you, that is time for GPE conversion. I want proper GPE conversion including OTAs, so I assume that this (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2358781) is the only correct way to do it. I'm already s-off and unlocked (via Firewater not via official HTC DEV) and not-rooted.

Here are my current device informations:

I have read carefully instructions from the conversion post, but just to summarise all for may case (my version of One M7 with latest stock software), here I my questions :

I only need to:

- Instal proper version of TWPR (is twrp-2.8.6.5-m7univ.img OK?) I assume rooting is not needed? ** THIS IS ONLY NEEDED IF I NEED BACKUP? ** IT IS NOT NEDDED FOR CONVERSION ?

- Change CID to GOOGL001 (to be able to receive OTA later)

- flashing according to this guide (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2358781)

- take the 5.1 OTA, prosper and donate :)

FIRMWARE, HBOOT, RADIO QUESTIONS:

Will RUU also change Firmware, HBOOT version and appropriate radio? Or should I do this manually? Currently I'm on HBOOT 1.61 and 4T.35.3218.16 RADIO.

Is current HBOOT 1.61 problematic for RUU conversion or is OK?

Thank you in advance for your answers!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Change your CID

Flash the ruu

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
fastbppt flash zip ruu.zip
fastboot reboot

update your phone

Keep the bootlloader unlocked and s-off

yes

No, even if it was, you have s-off so you can downgrade it.

Thanks in advance!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
If you want to go back to Sense later, you don't need any nandroid backup, just use the 7.19.401.22 ruu
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Thank you very much alray.

It seems simple enough.

Do you know where can i get 7.19.401.22 RUU zip?

As here is not available:

http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/

Thank you for your help!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
in the general section there is a sticky thread named (Collection - lollipop signed RUU). Look my post (#2) first file is the 7.19.401.22.

Oh and another thing, if you want to revert back to Sense later you will need to flash the 7.19.401.2 firmware before being able to flash the 7.19.401.22 RUU.

So if you want to return to Sense:

Change back your CID to HTC__032 or any other compatible CID like HTC__001

flash the 7.19.401.2 firmware:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader

then flash the 7.19.401.22 ruu (using htc_fastboot.exe, not the normal fastboot.exe):

htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
htc_fastboot reboot
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Thank you!

I assume exe executables are for win os. Any option to go to Sense with Mac OS X? Otherwise I will need to borrow Win PC to make exe usable.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
afaik, no. you must use Windows with htc_fastboot.exe for all 7.xx.xxx.x RUUs
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Just to clear up:

Convert to Google Edition can be done on MAC OS X just with adb and fastboot commands.

Convert to Sense can be done only on WIN (WIN7 preferred).

And, just to double check:

So 7.19.401.2 firmware is correct (it is not some kind of typing error?), or should be 7.19.401.22 firmware?

Please confirm.

Thank you 100x !

Update:

For Windows adb and fastboot exucatbles are ok if obtained from here?:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

Plus of course htc_fastboot.exe
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Yes you'll need windows to go back to Sense because 7.xx.xxx.x RUUs can only be flashed using htc_fastboot.exe. 7.xx.xxx.x RUUs are bigger than older RUU and normal fastboot from the android sdk tools can't handle 7.x RUUs file size

If you really can't use a windows computer then you can always use your mac to convert back to Sense but you'll have to use an older RUU that doesn't require htc_fastboot to be flashed (e.g: 1.28.401.7 or 4.19.401.9) and you'll have to update via ota. 7.19.401.2 and 7.19.401.22 ruu must be flashed using htc_fastboot.exe

Its not a typo: to flash a 7.xx.xxx.x ruu, your phone must be at least on a 6.xx.xxx.x firmware, otherwise the ruu will not flash. I have suggested 7.19.401.2 firmware because I know this one will work (already tested myself). In theory you could flash a 6.xx.401.x firmware and the 7.19.401.22 ruu will flash fine. You just want your firmware to meet the minimum requirements to flash the 7.19.401.22 ruu, anyway after flashing the RUU, the firmware will also be updated to the same version (7.19.401.22).

Just make sure you don't use a firmware.zip extracted from an ota update.zip, these firmware.zip are only patches to be flashed over the correct firmware version. For example, if you flash a firmware.zip extracted from an ota.zip over your GPE firmware, you will brick your phone. Flashing a complete firmware (not from an ota) is safe. The 7.19.401.2 firmware linked above is a complete firmware so it is safe to flash it over GPE firmware to convert back to Sense prior to flashing the 7.19.401.22 RUU.

Everything you need attached below
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mirkuma:
Great, many thanks for your kind help & tips & very clear explanations.

Due to many versions, many old guides etc. stuff gets easily from clear to "complex & blurry" and is very easy to make mistake and brick a phone (aiming to your hint about not taking firmware.zip from OTA...for sure I would make this kind of mistake, and brick my phone.

Will convert my One M7 it during weekend, hopefully all will be ok.

Something else:

- I will install custom recovery TWRP + root, so I was wondering what steps do I need to follow in order to apply future OTA updates?

As I understand I need to to restore the system first and then unroot.

So in fastboot to do the followings:

adb reboot bootloader

then in fastboot

fastboot erase system
fastboot flash system system.img

Then I should be stock again, then I should put the phone back in Recovery mode (stock one) and go the the Recovery Menu and choose Apply Update from ADB.

Then from the adb console I will apply the update?

adb sideload update.zip

And after finishing the updates I will install back the TWRP recovery and install back the SU (root).

Are the above steps the right one?

And the most important question where do I get that stock system.img ?

Option 1: - being stock, and after installing the TWRP recovery (but before applying any root) should I backup my existing system and use that as system.img ?

Option 2: - use the system.img from the above published sources like PN07IMG_M7_UL_L51_STOCK_UI_MR_Google_WWE_6.04.1700.16_LMY47O.H16_Radio_4T.36.3218.06_10.33R.1718.01L_unsigned.zip ?

Please advise guys, I would like to know all the steps required before root-ing the phone.

If you cant feel them with finger nail, use some high quality polishing compound and buffing wheel on dremel.
