Any way to use an RUU in ubuntu without a VM - AT&T HTC One (M7)

Do you use wine or something or is there no way to do it?

scrossler decrypted the ruu.exe check it out in designgear's RUU thread in general.

What is a decrypted ruu?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Zip file removed from the exe. Should be flash able from recovery

Awesome, thanks for the tip.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

Ok the decrypted RUU is the img files for the OS install. NOT flashable. I should have checked before I said what I did.

So how do you install that onto the phone?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app

No idea off hand. I think it would install via stock recovery but don't take my word for it. I just use a vm on my mac to use ruu files

I think I'm just gonna go back to windows. I crashed ubuntu last night anyways.

[Q]How to make an RUU rooted

How do I make an RUU rooted? Meaning I keep the custom hboot and recovery. I'm s-off. I flashed the latest global RUU a while back after being on clean Rom for a while, and hated having to push the hboot and amon ra recovery again. I'm running Newts one XxX 3.2.1 now and I love it, but I just want to remember what stock was like I guess lol. Maybe so I can appreciate the devs more. Can I just delete the hboot***file, boot_signed.IMG and recovery_signed.img files from the ph98img.zip and all be good? Or will it bootloop or possibly brick my phone.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Yes you can do that, just removing the recovery will do the trick. If you remove the boot from it, it will bootloop. That should keep you rooted and keep your current recovery. Be sure to unzip the zip file, then remove it, then re zip it up and run it
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Thank you. So I leave the hboot in the .zip as well? Won't that flash over the custom hboot and remove the fastboot option?

Oh sorry didn't realize you had an engineered hboot. Yeah take that out too
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda app-developers app
Ok cool. Thanks. That's what I thought from reading on xda for a while, but I wanted to make sure before I did it so I didn't have any issues and have to start over anyway.

I suppose I do need the boot IMG too since I'm moving from sense 4.0 to 3.6 and ics maybe slightly different too like 4.02 and 4.03

Well since the ruu will replace your rom, you will need to keep the boot.img that comes with the ruu

Not really sure why you would need this being soff, when you install a rom the kernel is installed as well. Being soff you would just need the z image. Note this is for ICS not jb

[Q] Trying to root 2.04.605.2

I am trying to get HTC ROM EXTRACTOR from as i9000 to work on Ubuntu 12.04 but I'm not having any luck in doing so. I've done what it says at his post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2199638 and still no luck. Can anyone help me?
You can't root 2.04
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I know but I was looking at this program and it lets you get the Rom file from the Ruu and mess around with it. I was thinking that if I can't get it so that when you do the Ruu update that the system file would be writable and you can use adb to root or something to that effect.

You can't go around editing the ruu file. Unless you have a couple super computers in your basement that can break the encryption

There is an available tool that allows the extraction of the RUU exe to a zip for editing. The problem is the only available RUU is pre-ota, and post-ota devices don't allow downgrades.
Another problem is that the RUU's need to be signed by HTC. I'm not sure exactly how the signature shows up in an RUU, but HTC signs them. With S-OFF the RUU signature doesn't matter, but with S-ON, it does. If someone makes their own RUU, for example a post-ota rooted phone to make a 2.04 RUU that is rootable, it won't take unless you have S-OFF...
Basically, it looks like we need to wait for a 2.04 RUU leak that's signed, then maybe extract, edit, and recompile it.
Believe me if it was as easy as you think it is, the developers would have done it already. Its not currently possible to root it.

Return to stock AT&T warranty claim

So without the RUU, how do I reform it to stock so I can take it in and don't get refused a replacement?
Thanks IE.

Why can't you RUU? If you can't I guess you can use a stock backup and then flash the stock recovery when your done

Hello,
That is for the developers edition. You either are using a developers edition on T-Mobile's network or you changed your T-Mobile version to a developers edition at some point.

Hello,
No need to upload it as it can be downloaded right from HTC. Again this is for the developers edition HTC One.

If you are on stock ruu then it shouldn't let you install the developer's edition. Something is glitching but better a glitch than you install a version that isn't for your stock version. It could give you more problems than its worth. If your stock, wait for end of Jan, that's all there is to it.

I am not familiar with RUU. If I install this on a stock rom on HTC One. What would be the end result?
