Custom Recovery?
Any mods?
Unlocked bootloader?
You need
Stock rom (as it was out of the box)
Stock kernel
Stock recovery
Bootloader can stay unlocked and root is also not a problem
Its running stock rom, stock recovery, but unlocked bootloader and rooted.
I followed the guide here.
Still getting error.

Did u change anything to the rom, remove bloatware or something similar
Being rooted and the unlocked bootloader is not the problem
Ah ha, I did disable some bloatware. Is this whats causing problem?

For what ? Did u read what we are doing here ? Hboot is not important (certainly not in this case)
None of the bloatware is disabled nor removed, and I can be sure the stock rom hasn't been tempered with. Recovery is checked to be stock. Yet still no luck with ota.
Might have to use ruu after all.

If it shows nothing at the top, then it has never been unlocked nor updated to unlock.

HTC added the unlock capability in a later iteration of hboot. I believe you need to update hboot before unlocking?

If you're just asking the same question, yes. Read the XDA rules.

Nope, but your apps will be erased using the RUU. So use the backup if you want to keep them.

Check if Your bootloader is un-lockable. You can Google how to check that.
