Hi
I think i screwed up BIG TIME! Please help me if you have an idea!
i tried to flash the latest ARHD, comming from the lite version, i decided to go for the full package.
followed the guide, fastboot boot .img, clear chache etc. but when i got to the flashing part, recovery wouldnt run the .zip file (bad)
Now i dont have any nandroid backups or any other roms to try and flash. I've superwiped, so theres no roms installed, so i guess i cant access my "sdcard"..
And also, i have OSX, so i dont know how to do the sdk stuff
Are there any way to fastboot a new rom? or any other way to get my phone running again?
thanks
see this thread or follow these steps
flash stock recovery
relock bootloader
flash ruu
flash recovery
unlock bootloader
thank you..
as i cant run an exe file, is is nessesary to do that to get the boot.img from the zipfile? it says in some guides that you have to make sure that the exe is running before getting the boot.img
or is it possible to download the boot.img directly?
im downloading the ruu now

why can't you run the .exe? what you can do is extract the boot.img from the rom.zip and flash it through fasboot

I come from the SGAce forums where flashing is just download-and-flash method and now I wanna try the HTC One X and use ARHD Rom (used it on my friend's Gnexus) And I really don't know what to do! It's just too complicated for me
My bootloader is already unlocked and it's only a test phone I borrowed cause I'm not sure what to buy yet
If anyone can help Here as well as ow to flash the rom and the .bat file
THANK YOU A LOT
First you need unlock bootloader to flash custom recovery. Follow this guide for example how to do it.
After recovery, make a backup of your current rom.
After backup, download ARHD 5.1.0 and superwipe script to your sdcard, after you got them both flash boot.img from ARHD thread. (Download this & run "install-boot.bat") This is mandatory because without S-OFF one can't flash boot.img from recovery, and without boot.img flashed one can't boot their device or it won't work properly.
Then to the basic flashing process, boot to recovery and flash superwipe script and afterwards flash ARHD and you're good to go!
BTW, you don't need to flash firmware files

In which part? When u flash boot.img you only need to run .bat file and press any button when device is in usb fastboot mode

Download the boot.img from ARHD thread, it has instructions inside
I have tried a search but can't find what I'm looking for. I am rooted but want to do the OTA update. I have downloaded the correct stock recovery .img file but what is the procedure to flash this?
Thanks, Craig
Rename the stock recovery to recovery.img and place it in the fastboot folder ..... Put the phone in the bootloader and flash it from the command prompt on the pc
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Fastboot erase cache

Hi Craig
I've seached and cannot find a suitable stock image download for a UK HTC One on the Orange network (if that makes any difference).
Could you post where you downloaded a stock image from please?
I've found plenty of M7 RUU links but it seems a bit crazy to reflash everything including the radio just to reset the bootloader.
Thanks in advance

Recovery is present in RUU. If u have found the correct RUU then just extract the recovery image from Ruu and then flash it. When u click the ruu a temporary zip file is created in c drive (windows pc). There is a file called "rom.zip" . Extract recovery from this rom.zip
No luck with this..

Hi
I've spent several hours trawling through forum posts and trying suggestions but I'm having no luck getting back to stock.
This is what I have:
HTC One on Orange UK
Bootloader locked
S-On
CWM Recovery
Stock ROM
What I've done is unlocked the bootloader and flashed CWM recovery. I then relocked the bootloader.
I've searched for hours for a stock recovery that is compatible with this model but to no avail. I've also tried to find an RUU for Orange UK but again, no luck.
I've tried to set S-Off using revone but get an 'error: device not found' when running 'adb push revone /data/local/tmp/'. I've also tried to run 'fastboot oem unlock' but that also errors.
The phone works but I'm unable to OTA upgrade which is quite frustrating.
Anyone have any recomendations as how to get this back to stock?
Many thanks in advance

why did you relock the bootloader with custom CWM recovery on your phone? u need to unlock the bootloader again..what errors are you getting while unlocking again? and ask for stock recovery in htc one forum.. someone will have it
for example htc rezound if you rename the rom name to PH98IMG you can reboot into bootloader and flash the rom automatically. how do I do that? asking because I don't have a rom on my phone (I wiped everything) now trying to get a rom loaded on it

Your Rom can be named whatever you want as long as you write the name the same in the command and Idk if there is an automatic way like that, I doubt it.
This cant be done with roms, only with ruu's and firmware images. You would need a usb-otg cable, a fat32 formated flash drive, and the correct name would be PN07IMG.zip
im so stuck now. the htc resound was so much easier.
im s-off but stuck with no rom at all to load.
I kno how to adb sideload a rom to my phone but non of them are installing.
how can I return to stock?

more information would be nice. I cant not find a ruu zip or exe downloadwith vzw_001 thats my cid I believe.
so I will have to get that ruu and adb sidload it and then install from twrp? or fastboot oem rebootRUU install it that way?
detailed information would be greatly appreciated my hboot is the dreaded 1.56 I am s-off tho unlocked.
You can get the ruu's at the bottom of this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46506621
You can direct flash thru hboot as i explained earlier, or use
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Code:
fastboot flash zip nameoffile.zip
You do not sideload the zip to the phone, but put it on your pc in the same folder as fastboot.exe.

hmm thank you so much. and for some reason encrypted ruu doesn't work? but isn't that like how stock comes from the factory? I would like it to be factory stock to the max. then im gunna just debloat it.
For encrypted to work you must relock your bootloader. Either way you are getting the exact same thing. Encrypted / decrypted refer to the flashable file it self, not the files it contains or how they are put on the phone. Once you do the ruu and take the ota, you will be compleet stock other than being unlocked and s-off.

Your welcome. You can extract the recovery image file from the rom.zip of the RUU. You run the exe then enter %temp% in the Windows search bar. The files that show up numbered (one of them had the rom.zip in it which contains the recovery image.) copy recovery image , unlock bootloader, flash stock recovery, lock bootloader, run RUU executable, done !

I go to extract the ROM.zip file and it says that the zip file is corrupted. So I tried running the RUU without doing that step, it puts an HTC logo on my phone, and soon after it says the update has failed.
I tried using USB debugging, I've tried booting it in Fastboot and Hboot, I've tried booting it from the Bootloader. It doesn't work. I've searched everywhere on the internet for the Stock Recovery and that doesn't exist.
Is there just a backup I can use or something?

It's been awhile since I copied my stock recovery from my RUU file but I believe I used Winrar or 7zip. So you would rather flash some random persons stock TWRP backup with God knows what done to it before they even made the backup than a clean pure stock RUU ? Most people don't do the TWRP backup right after flashing TWRP. most do it days or weeks later after they have modified their system playing with root. I would never flash someone else's TWRP backup to my device unless it was an absolute last resort. We're one of the few devices (a5_chl)that HTC gives us stock RUU's for . It's all the poor dual SIM users who are having to flash these random TWRP backups and many still have issues after that. I know you think it's easier but it is not as long as you still can flash back the stock recovery. Try to extract it again using Winrar and if that doesn't work( it should) then here's a link to FoxyDrew's forum with the stock recovery for our device linked and flashing instructions ( albeit for kit Kat I believe.) Don't give up on this method cause your almost there ! First link is a step be step tutorial on getting the recovery image extracted from your RUU. Try it first because it's best to copy the RUU's recovery image. If you can't then the 2nd link below has a link to a copy.
