HELP Soft Bricked HTC One M7 (Sprint) S-ON, No OS, RUU Not Running

Brycery91 · May 14, 2014

So I got my HTC one and rooted it immediately and Installed Cyanogenmod 11. I love Cyanogenmod but my SMS and MMS messages were all screwed up. I booted back up from my backup and noticed that It was running Android 4.3, 4.4 is available so I tried to install the update, It failed so I realized this must be because I was rooted so I went about going back to stock HTC Sense. I relocked the bootloader and ran RUU but the program crashed. After that I was only able to get to the fastboot page, recovery would crash. I ran a few different verisons of RUU but each one failed (error 155 being most prevalent). I unlocked my bootloader again and cyanogenmod started to boot up but never got through. I wipe data and cache. CM still won't boot. I reflashed the CWM recovery and tried to load the back up that I had. I get multiple errors about not being able to mount /system, /cache everything. I installed TWRP and tried to do sideload, not working. I have a USB OTG cable and I tried to load files that way, no good. I don't have S-Off and I can't boot into a rom so I can't get S-Off. I've exhausted google, not sure what to do now. Here is a breakdown.

I've tried to run my exact version of RUU, found here.

The Ruu window won't even open, I've run as administrator, in all sorts of compatibility modes. I've run it on my windows 8 pc, windows 7 pc and from mini-windowsXP. None of them could start.

Like I've said I've exhausted my resources. I appreciate any and all of the help I can get. Thank you!

Did you check the MD5 on the download?

Did you disable all security ( anti virus etc) on your PC.

Use Windows 7.

Did you relock your bootloader.

I Will check MD5 when I get back from work. I have all security disabled, not even firewall is enabled, I've used windows seven and I have relocked my boot loader. I was able to find an alternative version of The RUU I needed on the same thread I downloaded from. Here is the working link to the thread/download http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2576995.

That is official RUU, your BEST hope! http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_..._NV_SPCS_4.38_003_release_348053_signed_2.exe

Lock your bootloader, put the phone in bootloader mode where it says FASTBOOT USB on your phone screen and run the RUU package. IF It is NOT working, please post back with screenshot of the error!

Ok i'm not sure if this is the same RUU from the thread I linked, but on the page 5, "Ph33zy" linked a working exe. I ran that and it went through! What a relief! My phone is running again! Thanks everyone for your help! I worked on this for hours and I feel so embarrassed cause I feel like a noob!

Glad your up and running again.

Mine would do the same thing eventually I would get an error on the PC. When I finally found a RUU that matched my exact system "version-main: 3.05.651.6" It ran very smoothly. Make sure the RUU you have on matches your version number that is shown when you boot to bootloader.

How did you get it to have no OS? If the phone is off and you first hold down the volume down button then the power button (keep them pressed till the screen lights up). Make sure that you've also had it charged.

what rom version have you tried to flash? What twrp version are you using? Do you want to restore your stock rom or you want to install a custom one?

I have flashed TWRP 2.8.1.0 (latest version)
I am S-ON
I tried to unroot my phone and firewater told me that my kernel contains anti-firewater files.
so i decieded to flash ARHD, while flashing, I wiped my phone and after that I couldnt flash any ROMs. ( ARHD and a ROM that HTC has sent for me)
I want to flash HTC sense rom and return to stock.
thanks
