Hi. I'm new to the HTC One family. I bought a used rooted unit on Swappa and flashed the Google Play Edition on the phone, which was great, until I installed an over-the-air update, which was unavoidable. I'm now running Android 4.3 Build # JWR66v.H10. When I go to Bootloader mode, it says the phone is unlocked and tampered. When I go to use superuser it tells me the phone is not rooted.
How do I get the bootloader to not be tampered? Do I need that to be fixed to root again? How do I re-root? I'd like to not receive these OTA updates as well, to avoid problems in the future.
All help and suggestions are appreciated!
just reflash SuperSU for your device and you should be rooted again, for the tampered i believe you have to flash the RUU to get that back to stock android and stock bootloader.

Its gonna say tampered if you have tampered with the stock recovery haha.
You can either go s-off to get rid of that or go back to full stock.
And ya just flash latest superSU and you should be rooted.

Hmmm ya that's weird. If you looking for the Google edition experience I'd recomend sinless rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348176
In my opinion no other GE rom even compares.
I believe its on the most current GE base so you shouldn't have any ota isssues.

Just a question will I need to be unrooted to receive and or download/ install the ICS upgrade when it is made available?
Sent from my rooted HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk
From what I recall, you need to relock the bootloader to install OTA updates... So, I would assume you would need at least to relock the bootloader if they do not give us a zip to upgrade to ICS... And even then, to update from zip, you have to relock the bootloader, it will also delete your superuser on the rom, so you will lose root. It will probably also overwrite your recovery at the same time, so in the end, it's best to relock the bootloader before you upgrade to OTA to prevent it from bricking your phone.
With the last update we did not have to relock our bootloader however we did need the stock recovery. We've only had one OTA update since we've obtained root so it's difficult to say what a totally new build will require.
In most cases with various different phones, you can download the OTA to the phone but it will not install if the /system partition has been modified and you have a custom recovery installed. In order to properly update with an OTA, the ROM would need to be returned to stock and you would need to flash the stock recovery back to the phone as the OTA does checks against the system to ensure it's okay to flash. You do not have to be relocked in order to install it, however.
The best idea would be to wait until the OTA has been modified to ignore /system modifications and can be flashed using CWM, but of course that takes a little time until it is available.
I found the Stock Roms forum but will that relock my boot loader as well. I'm thinking it won't but doesn't hurt to ask.

No, the only ways to relock the bootloader is to run the Relocker script in the dev forum, or manually type "fastboot oem lock" in fastboot. Flashing ROMs will not relock the phone for you.
However, it is worth noting that you cannot flash the official stock ROMs without having the phone relocked first.

Not true. we did flash the stock roms the last time ota update came out and we didnt relock the bootloader. it only required to have stock recovery because you lose root once you flash the stock rom.

You must relock the bootloader to flash the RUU file.
i think i will wait until one of the developers or x makes a ota rooted build, usually when all the major ota comes somebody makes a rooted flash leak about it,

I can assure you that you did not. What I'm talking about is the RUU stock ROM file. But the point is moot because you're wrong.
Hi everyone,

right. need to be re-locked and stock non rooted.
I do not understand why you would want to unroot and unlock to get the OTA "when released". In about a day after it is released I am sure a Dev will have a flash-able version posted.
Maybe but since we don't have s-off don't we have to relock to flash the new firmware and radios? Hopefully we have s-off before official update comes.

Wierd, I read a few posts in another topic that said you had to be locked or relocked in order for the new radio to flash...
What about me?
Well my bootloader screen at the top says ***tampered with*** and then under it says ***re-locked*** and rom is a "clean rom" (ICS based). I purchased (expecting a stock device) and it turned out to be rooted/flashed. What I'm wondering is when Verizon HTC releases the "official" ICS update, will it come to my phone? If so, this would be the quickest fix for me to get stock again. I'm not concerned with "bloatware" etc, I just want things Verizon/HTC stock. I don't download enough apps to be concerned about bloatware and internal space etc. So from what I'm reading here, being "re-locked" and having a flashed rom that's close to being stock should allow me to still get the update, am I correct?
In short, what I mean is, will the update come to my phone like it has done previous android devices (that weren't flashed)? Or will I have to flash another OTA based cooked rom AFTER the official one comes out and someone "cooks" it?
You will not get the OTA if you are rooted, that's for sure. If it's the stock ROM, you'll get the option to update, but it'll fail during the installation. I've seen it happen on a few HTC devices and even my rooted Xyboard tablet lol. But, just to be safe if you DO want the OTA, install the stock ROM (If you're on an ICS ROM, you're going to have a tough time getting back to stock. It's bricked a lot of people's phones. You have to restore the firmware yourself, I think.) and relock your bootloader. Don't be worried if it says **Security Warning** this simply means that your bootloader has been unlocked at one point in time.
Just make sure your phone is on a stock, non-rooted ROM with your phone locked to make sure you have no issues. Better safe than sorry.
lol?

you could try installing the Xposed Framework installer, and then grab that mod (the longpress back button menu option) and enable it. I think it should work. correct me someone, if I'm wrong.
Personally, I just went ahead and flashed ROMs from the WWE HTC One forum here on XDA dev - [HTC One (M7)] since they have the mods I want, and they work fine with our AT&T model. LTE working as well. I do think there's probably a slight issue with mismatched FIRMWARE and base version, because my LTE reception is like 2-3 bars on ROMs like ARHD 5.1 or TrickDroid 4.0 (based on 129.xx.xxx.5) whereas it's full-bar on the stock AT&T ROM.
hope I helped.. hit me up with any questions. the Xposed framework stuff you can actually find a link to in the ARHD thread (careful, don't install ARHD 6 right now, there's some issues people are having. 5.1 is good). Paul Obrien from MoDaCo hosts all the Xposed stuff.

Tell me about it... I'm not very excited to see that Sprint has fallen to the bottom of the list!
yup.. .got the OTA for my T6UL today morning. It downloaded alright, but couldn't install. Guess I will revert to stock recovery and check. Need to research now as to how to install stock recovery,
and if that will remove my root or S-off!!

Updating will most assuredly remove your root but it's not a huge deal to re-root. It won't change your s-off. Hopefully you did a full Nandroid before you installed your custom rom, It will only take you a couple steps and a few minutes to get back to where you started. If not you will have to hunt down the stock rom and flash, which shouldn't be all that difficult either. Whichever you end up doing, I would perform a fresh titanium backup of JUST your apps. This way you can get right back to where you are after you update! Good luck
I didn't even know the update was out...

Verizon could be out any day. Sprint probably a few more weeks
I'm not a staff so I have no idea about release date
but HTC just declared the future products and including last year New One series have 2 years update support, I guess US carrier will release it soon, the KitKat now is standing at front of a door, shouting "LET ME OUT!" =P

Ok, so i put in custom recovery, and then tried installing the OTA. A red exclamation came, and after 5 minutes, it rebooted. No other messages nothing! Still at 4.3 only!

you are trying to install the official update via custom recovery? I bet this won't work ( tell me if I'm wrong, new to One max )
find the stock recovery, flash it, then let the phone install it itself.
I met the same error when I using older HTC phones, too.

You need stock recovery for T6UL that you can find in CWM thread.
its so easy to flash it, just in case... fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I suspect the device needs to be LOCKED for the OTA to be applied. That can be done from Scotty's thread or mostly you are already locked.
You can be S-OFF, nothing to worry about.
Try keep OTA keeper or Superuser's keep root option during OTA. - This mostly might not work because the OTA methods have improved on security, however worth a try.
Unlock immediately after OTA and then ROOT and install the SD card read/write MOD
Backup CWM and upload for us
Thank you!
