[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savvas71:
I have a phone HTC One M7 that is still working very good. A long time ago HTC shared an update software.

I have a problem about phone upgrade and I need your help.

I downloaded the shared file: “OTA_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_4.06.1540.3-3.22.1540.1_R4_release_344323.zip” (about 866Mb)

After many tries to install it, the phone did not finish the procedure.

After online chat with HTC assistant (Fiona Chow) at Hong Kong she suggested to make a factory reset.

I made a factory reset but I saw the same results.

After new online chat she suggested to send the phone at Hong Kong

Fiona Chow: “There is something wrong with the phone Rom, needs to refresh it. We would like to suggest you please kindly send the phone back to Hong Kong for repairing.”

After that I asked the total price of the procedure and the duration of all this repairing, the responsible engineering (Eric) answered as below:

Eric: “The repair would take at least two or four weeks to complete.

1. Shipping fee and all shipment responsibility related will be on customer.

2. Customer should be arranged courier to send back after the repair complete.

3. If any payment may cause in the transition in the bank, the handling fee should be on customer.

After engineer checking the phone, if there only need to be refresh Rom, it will cost HKD$150.But if there something wrong with hardware, we will charge the parts fee as well. Please don't worry, before we start to repair, we will contact with you for the quotation.”

As you understand it better to throw it in trash and buying another phone instead of repairing it in Hong Kong. The final cost is very high!

But if someone could help me to fix it, this would be more than helpful.

Please can you help me? Thank you in advance.

With respect,

Savvas

Happy the New Year!!!

Why not just try flashing the last Official RUU/update available for that device model?

http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_7.17.1540.51.exe

That's what I would suggest.

I don't see the point in trying to take all the old OTA's incrementally...

Good luck!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savvas71:
Could you please tell me step by step what should I do? I am new here and I need some help.

Also, the phone is from Hong Kong. Is the file you suggested compatible with my phone? Do you need the IMEI to verify compatibility or there is no problem at all?

Thank you
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] santod040:
No, I don't need the IMEI, you should always blank that info out in a public forum, as well as serial.

Paste the terminal output here from the following fastboot command, while the device is in bootloader:

fastboot getvar all

Also this https://www.google.de/url?sa=t&rct=...r-htc-phone/&usg=AOvVaw3OSLmN3Qr_x7_Xm7zEGyXg

Short version, just install "minimal adb and fastboot" install HTC drivers connect phone to pc reboot into bootloader select fastboot and enter the command "fastboot get var all" into your cmd on your pc. After you have dont that, you get a longer list with informations about your device. Just post that here, but remove your imei and serialnumber.

Well you should be good with flashing the file santod gave you. And here in this link you will find instructions on how to flash it under "How to flash" https://xdaforums.com/htc-one/general/lollipop-ruu-zip-small-collection-t3053944

Sometimes you need to start the flash process twice in ruu mode
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savvas71:
Thank you for helping me. Also, I would like to give me some clarifications on how to make the right flash step by step.

The link you suggested says …

1.	Rename file to RUU.zip

Request: Developer “santod” suggested a file which is at (*.exe):

RUU_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_7.17.1540.51.exe

Is this the right file I have to rename? Why is at (*.exe)?

2.	Place it in adb folder

Request: Is “adb” folder the same one I used to unlock the phone with the files adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll, fastboot.exe and Unlock_code.bin included? I have renamed it as fastboot).

3.	Reboot phone to fastboot mode

4.	S On need to relock bootloader (fastboot oem lock), S Off lock not needed

Request: My phone is at S Off so I don’t do anything, right?

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

get the htc_fastboot.exe : Here

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

Request: I have an “adb” folder with fastboot.exe which I used it for unlocking. Is it a different one?

6.	Run the following commands from your adb folder:

6.htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU

7.htc_fastboot flash zip RUU.zip

8.htc_fastboot reboot-bootloader

Request: What are the above commands doing?

Thank you very much for your help. Please help me as more as you can.

If you have links with essential files could help me or/and any video (you tube) flashing my phone please suggest it.

I wish at a right flash. After that, I won’t forget you…

Thank you in advance.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saturday_night:
Ja

I have never used an ruu.exe so i dont know it exactly, but it might be much easier. Just Start the exe (like every Programm) it should tell you what to do. If its automated you dont need to mess around with adb and fastboot. Another Option could be that the exe just extract the ruu.zip, in that case you just need to follow the flashing guide. And if you need to flash it manualy you should use the htc_fastboot.exe (link to download it is in the guide) just replace the usual fastboot.exe and rename it from htc_fastboot.exe to fastboot.exe. This is very important because HTC changed something so that the usual fastboot.exe doesnt work in some cases.

The commands:first one reboots your device into a special ruu mode which is needed to Flash an ruu or firmware. Second one starts the Flash. Third one is rebooting from ruu Mode to bootloader so that you can check if it did work. If you are s-off you dont need to lock or relock the device.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savvas71:
I run the RUU_M7_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_7.17.1540.51.exe

on my laptop and appeared nonsense “Chinese” fonts.

Also, after run of the above file (*.exe) no zip file was extracted! So, I have no RUU!

Could you please tell me what to do next?

I just need to be sure before making flashing to avoid any error.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saturday_night:
I just downloaded it and tried to start it but the installer allways crashes, maybe its not compatible with windows 10. I dont know. You could try the compatibility mode or you need to search for a ruu.zip for your device. But i didnt see any chinese font its all in english, maybe your file was damaged while downloading it, try to download it again.

Any Help???
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Can you please post a screenshot of this

The only thing a factory reset is doing is deleting your user data and settings from /data/media/0, It doesn't reset the rom or fix anything.

It depends where the flash stops.

If the .exe version of the ruu isn't working on your side you can still try with the .zip version from a terminal window using htc_fastboot.exe

[NOTICE: see the last post for solution]

hi to all developers and gamers all over the world

its very very nice to have a pc hardware on xda. thanks.

guys i have a problem. recently i bought a second hand ddr3 ram (gskill sniper, 1600mhz) for a 1333mhz capable mainboard.

the thing is that when i insert the new ram into mobo it starts fine, but when booting to windows i get bsod's of 0x19, 0x7E, 0x01 and one more, i forget (edit: its 0x1a). i cant even get it into windows memory diagnostic or memtest86+ and i cant boot anything. but when i insert old ram (1333), the computer's working fine.

any help appreciated.

have a nice day.
[PC Hardware General] eurodiesel:
a screenshot from memtest86+ and a pic of old vs new ram

notice the black spots on the screenshot
[PC Hardware General] vidra:
I had broken ram in my PC a while ago.

The higher requency shouldn't be a problem, just don't overclock it.( try underclocking it)

What motherboard are you using?
[PC Hardware General] eurodiesel:
im not overclocking anything

it is an asboard h55 mobile with intel core i5-520m

i discovered that i can send it back and have a refund, so that is also an option.

thanks for reply, cya
[PC Hardware General] vidra:
if you are using this motherboard, the it is compatible (http://www.asrock.com/mb/memory/H55M.pdf)

so the only other option is that the RAM or mb are broken
[PC Hardware General] BIGWORM:
Is there any reason why you're using mixed pairs of RAM in your system? That can give you loads of instability.
[PC Hardware General] eurodiesel:
lm not using them both

the problem is that the gskill alone is not working

now im looking to return it
[PC Hardware General] garwynn:
I'd definitely look at RMA or returns, especially if the other memory is working fine.

If neither is working and you're still seeing artifacts (those black spots) that suggests it might be the motherboard or CPU.
[PC Hardware General] eurodiesel:
ok, so i just made a test run with all drives unplugged, and the issue presists. my conclusion is that mobo is incompatible and i should return it. whats your opinion guys?

edit: ive already sent it for refund. i will continue this thread as i will buy another stick, thanks to every one who helped me. stay tuned:good:
[PC Hardware General] garwynn:
Would agree. If you still have issues with whatever you choose to replace it with, let us know!
[PC Hardware General] eurodiesel:
okay, well, i got a new ram, everything seems fine with memtest.

***********the conclusion of this thread***********

if your RAM doesn't work for you, you'd better return it right away and buy another one.

Edit: if you installed a 2.nd identical module and system does not boot, you might need to clear cmos.

thanks for everyone involved.

Only other things is drivers again and try other usb ports as well as a different PC.

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Danno1975:
Anyone had any over heating or DVR issues?.

Recently after nasty traffic trip of 2 hours (longest trip so far with this unit) I noticed that the OBDII torque app wouldn’t work (not unheard of) but then the sound attenuation wasn’t snapping off after nav directions, so I tried the volume knob and guess what no response, buttons not working and within seconds the whole unit packed up totally.

Did a reset and it was still glitchy.

Then I realised it was red hot, pulled the trim away and touched under the unit and it was burning hot.

Since then it’s crashed a few times and Waze (normally rock solid) has acted up with issues around gps signal being slower than my driving and just hanging and crashing.

Ps is the uk and it’s wet and cold, also tons of space inside the dash as it’s installed in a Van.

One thing at the time was that I have the usb in the glove box and at the time I was using it to keep my phone charged. Not sure if that was a factor?.

Since the. I’ve stopped charging the phone off that as I now have the DVR and DAB(not used the dab yet). But I’ve found the dvr cottage is jerky and that when running the DVR it causes the Rev cam footage to jump a few times too (sketchy when reversing in tight areas in the van).

So any one experienced over heating?, could one overheating event have damaged the cpu?, and could the DVR issue be related this?. Or does the DVR take a lot of processing power?.

Not an expert but when Inlookednin settings the rams never been used beyond 50% since the DVR was hooked up and the DVR is digital and the Rev cam is analog so why would it affect it?, but it really does.

Had a nightmare with separate dash cams (3 off amazon in a row had faults) so was hoping the dvr would be the answer.

Loath to lose it just today coming back from the woods with the family a Z4 nearly Head on’d us on a narrow lane as he swerved off the main road!!.

I’ve already agreed to return it to audio tech direct after Xmas as the green phone buttons dead but should I complain about the overheating and demand a replacement?. It’s only 2 months old
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Cid6.7:
Give them a link to your post and google similar problems to find others with the same heat issue.

I installed 2 fans in my unit (not the same as yours) one directly on the cpu heatsync sucking the hot air off and another bigger pc fan that sucks the hot air out of the whole unit which is overkill but whatever lol
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Danno1975:
Hi, luckily they are replacing this one. Cooling wise I was thinking about sticking fans on the vent holes to suck hot air out and wire into the ignition so they come in with the radio, can attach on top externally and not void warranty. Won’t be able to add a heat sink though without opening up. Though I peeked into the Holes and there seem to be a corregated aluminium plate on top of the cpu, more ribbed than finned. Could that be a factory heat sink?

[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] alpha247:
I'm having exactly the same issue as you....

I have a PX5 Xtrons (GS) head unit and whenever i run Waze/Google Maps or any navigation app, after 30+ minutes , i get a "GPS lost, searching for GPS" message and the tracking starts to lag behind. Changing tracks/radio stations or volume at that time has a big delay. Today i got a "Temperature too hot" message and system shuts down.

How do i go about adding a fan/heat-sink onto these things? are there any tutorials etc?
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Danno1975:
Don’t know, there’s holes in top so I’m planning on a small 12v fan on top to suck the hot air out. Going to take a feed off the 12v power socket. Don’t want to open and stick heat sinks on as it’s under warranty but the fans can double tape externally.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] alpha247:
Can I ask how you powered your fans? I added a few heat-sinks to my system and although now it runs much smoother, temperatures do go up to 110-115 degrees Celsius. So now instead of becoming slow after 30 minutes, it now takes over an hour. I noticed a fan shaped hole in the back of my system which i am thinking about attaching a small fan on to to suck the warm air out.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Cid6.7:
I wired them to aux power in line and ground.

I plan on in the future finding a heat sensor so when the unit reaches a certain temp they'll turn on and off automatically
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] Danno1975:
So my cheap fans arrived from China and I’ve temporarily taped them over the vent holes on the top, after some messing around I’ve opted to push cool air in so have placed them to blow into the top holes, can feel air coming out of the opposite top vent holes, hoping this will help till I work out how to duct the permanent cool duct my van has into the unit. Terrible radio interference when the fans are on now though :( and ideas how to avoid that?
