[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mentize:
If this is posted in the wrong place I apologize in advance :angel:

Scenario:

I currently own 2 HTC One M7's -One is my daily driver, which is running stock (Lollipop) which works fine with no errors. Never been rooted / anything done to it.

The second is a 'Spare' one which I purchased from a friend rather than having him recycle it for cheap, as there's no hardware fault, he just wanted an upgrade.

This 2nd device is currently rooted -Looks like with TWRP, running a HTC Dev version.

It does not show as "Tampered"

It does show as "Unlocked"

From the BIOS<? screen it is currently S-OFF

Phones original carrier is O2 UK

The only issue with this as far as I can see is that is fails to update, so its running Android 4.4.2 Sense version 5.5 - When installing any update from the 'software updates' area the phone crashes and resets/wipes itself.

What I'm Seeking:

Can anyone link me to a word by word / specific guide in restoring this to (Unlocked) factory stock? Or how to take an image of my first phone and duplicate it onto the second.

End result I would like the phone back to stock, UNLOCKED to accept any SIM so it can be updated and used like a 'normal' phone (To me normal means that nothing has been done to the phone at all relating to rooting -If that makes sense.) with the ability to update and do whatever my 1st phone can without error or major intervention :victory:

I've tried to find an online guide for the past week or 2, with the required software/file however everything I find is either out of date (So it's links no longer work) or expects me to already have all the tools and know how to use them (Which I don't, at all! :crying: )

Reason: I've never been a fan of rooted phones/doing anything I don't fully understand, and don't want the hassle of having to update it manually. That and I don't like old-android.

Love anyone who takes the time to assist me (No-Homo) :highfive:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
can you post the output of "fastboot getvar all" from the phone you want to restore back to stock (don't post the imei# nor serialno#)? Is that phone already sim-unlocked? (btw ***unlocked*** in the bootloader doesn't mean sim-unlocked but bootloader unlocked). If yes, it will stay sim-unlocked forever if no you'll need to unlock it.

Wait for your "fastboot getvar all" then we can start reverting back to stock.

[MENTION=4654136]alray[/MENTION]

I have downloaded both the RUU and Fastboot exe - the fastboot file was not called "HTC_Fastboot.exe" it was just called fastboot.exe, i assume this is correct?

5. Also use the htc_fastboot.exe not the normal fastboot.exe

get the htc_fastboot.exe here : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934539737

Rename htc_fastboot to fastboot or if you don't rename the htc_fastboot.exe, then the command will be htc_fastboot flash zip RUU.zip

6. htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU -done

7.htc_fastboot flash zip RUU.zip -when doing this I am told "Cannot open file RUU.zip"

Ideas?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
can not open file error is caused by fastboot not finding the ruu. the ruu must be in the same folder as fastboot (htc's fastboot) and must be name "ruu" or "ruu.zip" if file extension are not hidden by default by windows.

And yes the file linked as htc_fastboot.exe is now named only fastboot.exe.Make sure to use this one.

Can you post a screenshot of your fastboot folder please?

[MENTION=4654136]alray[/MENTION] - see attached screenshot
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
You have double file extension at your ruu file. See how the .exe extension of adb and fastboot are hidden? Its the same thing for the zip file. Zip file are considered "known file type" by windows so by default the extension (.zip) is hidden. By renaming the file "ruu.zip" you have double file extension (ruu.zip + the hidden .zip = ruu.zip.zip)

So delete the .zip from the file name and try the command again. Should work fine.

To avoid this kind of problem in the future, you can change windows settings to never hide files extension

did you started your command prompt from the same folder where fastboot is? I see in your command prompt screenshot that you are working from the folder C:\User\Jason> when fastboot and other files are in C:\User\Jason\AppData\local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>

thats probably why fastboot is giving you the "can not load" error. Its not finding the file because you did not changed directory of your command prompt...

Double checked the fastboot is the HTC one, and is in the correct folder, along with the RUU file.
