Hey guys I had to send my HTC One back to ATT. So I stupidly tried to get it back to stock, so I first flashed an Odex-ed Stock Rooted Rom, then flashed stock recovery in fastboot, then locked the bootloader and am now trying to run the RUU. And it doesnt seem to be working..what do I do? I just keep booting into the bootloader straight. Im so lost.
So your bootloader is locked, you start the ruu and what happens?
I had a similar issue. For some resason all of my laptops had issues with drivers. If you go in device manager in windows, check to see if you see exclamation mark on my HTC.
I tried different drivers, sync app from HTC and even fresh virtual box environments on MacBook to no avail. It always shows that yellow exclamation when in bootloader.
Anyways, didn't mean to hijack your thread but just trying to see what's in your device manager. Try hansoon HTC one app?

it either says "Phone not found" or the RUU wont even open .. will say issues with drivers
Damn, I hope you get it figured out. I wish I could help. I know I better keep my htc one stock for the time being. This could of happened to me.

HI. I have a big problem... I tried flashing an OTA file with CWM recovery, and now I get to the HTC white screen with no Quitely brillant below
My hboot is unlocked and I am s-on
I could probable y access fastboot, though I cannot tell right now I cannot use it on the computer I have, but if I access fastboot I have the regular options, and the buttons works. if I choose recovey , I see a android CWM and a small bue progress bar and it reboots back to "Normal" wich is being the white HTC screen right now
I am able to access Hboot which makes me think that I can probably get out of this by flashing back my original RUU.
Pleasae tell me that i am right:
I thought of trying a factory reste to start with , but I am not sure this will work because of the recovery I installed.
My hboot is unlocked.
is it bad Doctor?:crying:
try flashing the stock recovery, then flash the ruu again.
it seems to be leading to something like this ... I'll try
And it worked!!!
I was able to relock the hboot prior to running videotron Ruu executable file. This worked like a charm... I have learned my lesson. I'll wait for my turn to be pushed. Thank you all.

no, the bootloader needs to be locked to flash any ruu file
Dude flash stock recovery relock boot loader then flash the RUU most recent one. And if your gonna unlock boot again and flash another custom recovery us 4ext its the best one in my opinion a lot of options very simple nice user interface no troubles as of yet. Plus it basically like having S-Off cause of smart flash it flashes kernels together with rom. Its 3.00$ on market or you can get it for free from internet or other apps. If anything feel free to pm me

Thanks, but right nowi'm kind of being chicken. Anyway, the OTA file came in anyway, by regular means, so my goal has been acheived.. but I'll chek it out eventually.

OK so I used the bootloader to flash the 3 option in Haus's thread and every thing is working. But....
Now on the bootloader screen it says locked tampered then S-off.
I was told the locked was just wat it was saying and didn't matter.
So do I have a locked boot loader? And does that even matter for anything or was it just required to get root plus S-off?
Did I mess up getting the newest hboot from the firmware? I was told I needed it to run meanbean.

I'm not sure what u flashed but it sounds like you flashed the whole thing which means you have stock recovery now. Either fastboot flash recovery image or download thru goo manager.
Once you have a custom recovery installed your all set. Don't worry about the locked on your bootloader

You should have flashed the first file the one with no kernel,hboot, or stock recovery that would have updated everything you needed to be updated
So did I mess anything up? I was able to flash mean bean without any issues.

No you just did the same as taking the OTA as far as I can tell. As long as everything is working you should be fine

Hi everyone,
I recently tried to flash a new ROM and had to upgrade my HBOOT. After i did so, I continued to flash the rom but probably made a noob move along the way because it got stuck at the HTC boot logo. I turned my phone off and then booted into recovery again but then got the error that 4ext was booting into safe mode because it could not mount the sd card. I did a bit of research and came across a thread that said to reflash 4ext and so I did. Now when I'm trying to boot into recovery, I get stuck at HTC boot logo again. At this point all I can boot into is HBOOT. Is there anything I can do or is my phone pretty much bricked?
My HBOOT version is currently 1.93.002.
Thanks.

If 4ext boot in safe mode it means your system partition or some other partition is corrupted the safest way to fix it is by running a ruu since your t mobile you won't face much trouble just lock your bootloader and run a t mobile ruu R2 is the latest

Well i cant get into 4ext at all now.
But i do have a few questions if you dont mind:
Would i lock it simply by doing fastboot oem lock in command prompt?
So the ruu would be the first one under tmobile on this site: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1617644?
And could you link me to or give me a quick tutorial on how to flash the ruu without being able to get into 4ext?
Sorry im kind of a noob at this.

Yes that's how you relock it.. Ignore the s off and super cid thing... Just follow from step 6 onwards and it's linked to the r2 ruu so download that.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38516167

Hi guys,
my hox+ seems to be bricked. I got a boot loop with the htc logo, but can still access bootloader, fastboot and recovery. But I am unable to flash the RUU image, cause of a high main version. Here are some pics that tell you more.
If I try to flash the new RUU I get the a new error now, that says "no device found" - I used the tool from hasoon2000.
Please help me, because the guy from the vodafone shop said, there's no way.
same problem with u but with AT&T , waiting for help >:<
Hope we get some help. Cant believe that the vodafone guys is right.
I dont know, why I cant use the "fix mainver error" function on masoon2000's tool.

Relock your bootloader and try the ruu again or you can sideload a Rom via twrp recovery
Your phone should be ok

I was in a similar situation. I just relocked my bootloader and the phone booted into my earlier ROM.

Hey guys, I am unable to flash the RUU with relocked bootloader, cuz my mainver is very high. How can I get it down, if "fix mainver error" from masoon2000's tool does'nt work (device not found)?

What you need a backup stock RUU. I need one myself.
How can I restore my hox+ if I have a backup. I found one (I have less than 10 Posts, so I can't post links) for vodafone, but dont know how to restore it.
I flashed the CWM recovery image and tried to load the zip file via sideload, but it doesn't work. After the upload the process aborted. Can anyone explain how to restore a stock rom backup?
You need to flash stock recovery, relock your bootloader and then run the ruu

.. and what can I do, if I get the error 140 bootloader version? My hboot version is 1.40.
