I have been stuck for days now trying to get my HTC ONE on AT&T back to stock so I can upgrade to KitKat
I am at the point where I got the bootloader relocked and I'm trying to install the RUU zip. Everytime I try to install it I get an error saying signature failure. I thought I may have been using the incorrect RUU file and have tried several both zip files and exe files and no luck. (phone is at a black screen with the HTC logo going across it ) also I am unable to access CWM

I am running a stock 4.1.2 HTC sense 5.0 software number 1.26.502.12

Try this file
http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo....20_10.40.1150.04_release_326691_signed_2.exe

followed by s-off with Rumrunner
then flash this RUU..
http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...3_10-38j-1157-04_release_334235_signed_2-exe/

you should get the kitkat OTA after that

OK I downloaded all the necessary files from the links ( thank you )
I went to install the exe from the 1st link and it goes through all the motions but then I get a message saying ERROR {155} UNKNOWN ERROR The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android Phone Please get the correct ROM update utility and try again

I rechecked the bootloader and it was unlocked, not sure how it got unlocked again, but I relocked it. I ran the ROM upgrade and it went through with no problems. I ran rumrunner and it failed after the 2nd test and said device is not rooted, and the last exe file launches and throws up an error right away. I tried an OTA and it says no updates
I went back into the bootloader and it says relocked and the tamper is gone, so progress was made
I can get into the stock recovery mode. I select apply from phone storage ( where kitkat zip is located ) but then the phone reboots instead of giving me a menu to scroll through so I can select the KitKat zip file.
