Thanks! Worked like a charm!
Is it a problem to have this firmware installed when I send my phone in for repair? I'm not sure if this is officially released yet?

I'm not sure abt that, but I think once u r s off, u can't repair ur phone for free.
I know for a fact that that is not true. I was just wondering if they will be able to detect the new unreleased firmware, or if there is a way to downgrade to older, released, firmware.
Okay thank you than the sensor from my camera now have that problem like other users had.
Just read it is a known bug, the HD2 and Desire had that problem too.
Next device will be no HTC anymore. The Ultra Pixel camera from HTC is not good from the beginning.
firmware / rom difference
Hi,
I'm on ViperOne 6.2.1, S-OFF, latest Radio and have a noob question:
What is the difference between base (in rom) and firmware version?
Will flashing 6.06 delete my rom? what does it change exactly? do i need to upgrade hboot?

ROM is based on firmware. Firmware is low level interface between software and hardware.
Firmware like computer BIOS. ROM like OS.
HBOOT and firmware contain unknown changes, usually best to update to latest firmware, but can have unexpected effects if not updated in order of release.

Hi guys,
I have the strangest problem trying to flash latest firmware
tried updating drivers, erase cache, updating recovery and nothing!
HTC One m7, S-OFF, Unlocked, TWRP 2.7.1.1, ElemantalX 14.12, Viper 6.2.1
This is what happens:
If I try to "fastboot getvar all" right when bootloader initiated i get:
After this, EACH and every command i try (including flash/reboot/getvar) gives "too many links" and my phone "freezes"
If i try to "fastboot getvar version-main" right when bootloader initiated i get this blank:
If i try to "fastboot flash zip ..." right when bootloader initiated i get:
and of course, trying to flash after getvar all would give me too many links
Anyone knows what can I do?

TWRP 2.7.1.1 is causing main-ver to disappear. Flash 2.6.3.4 of 2.6.3.3
For the other part, are you on windows 8, because it's not compatible with bootloader 1.44. Try on win 7, or linux.
If not, try reinstalling your phone drivers.
My 2 cents.
Thanks,
Actually I had TWRP 2.7.0.0 when trying this and failed.
Updating to 2.7.1.1 was just another step in trying to solve the problem
Is 2.7.0.0 not ok?

Did u used first the command:
fastboot oem rebootRUU ?
Firmwares are flashed in a special mode.
Please use vomer's guide.

You must be in this special mode to flash a firmware - RUU mode.
U can not flash a firmware in fastboot.
Read ALL the section 2 from vomer's guide: SECTION 2: FIRMWARE UPGRADE http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2365506 around the middle of the first post.
Read all the instructions and understand them.
To flash a firmware u will get in RUU mode, a black screen with silver writing.
There is allways some danger of bricking when you flash a firmware.
Good luck!

Here is the newest firmware for HTC One M7 without the red warning on Hboot. I did not change anything but removed the texts.
I created this thread because Google now requires the texts "Powered by Android" on new phones/firmwares, and the red warning overlaps it (as shown in the attachment below). This makes the screen ugly, so I removed the texts to beautify the screen.
Note: This firmware will not wipe your device. If anything goes wrong that your device is bricked, I am not responsible for that. Before uploading a new version, I always test it on my own HTC One.

Thank you!4
Flashing less-than-complete packages can potentially result in bricks. People bricked off the last upgrade trying to go from 3.xx to 5.xx. It's a best practice to always flash a complete package with the most recent versions of all files.
I would certainly not recommend flashing the latest hboot alone over earlier firmware. If you're already on 6.xx, flashing the modded hboot over the stock hboot isn't a problem (beyond the basic risks in using modded firmware, that is).33Would it be best to just post a zip of the modified and stock hboot_signedbyaa which we could flash with fastboot instead flashing the entire firmware package?
EDIT:
I attached the mini flashables for those who don't want to flash the entire firmware and just remove the red. hboot pulled from OP.
WARNING:
Only flash via fastboot if already on firmware 6.06.401.1 and hboot 1.57 and don't want to reflash the full firmware package again.
