This thread is a placeholder for all possible firmwares we can get from official HTC OTA's.
Your CID number must be exactly the same. If it's written "HTC__001" it means you can't flash it, if your CID is "02__001". The whole text must match!


Please READ this small F.A.Q. before continuing!

What is firmware.zip?
Firmware.zip is a part of each OTA update from HTC. It contains important part of the firmware like radio, bootloader, recovery, kernel etc..

Why it's important to flash firmware.zip and when should I flash it?
It is recommended to have flashed latest firmware on your device for best modem performance and system stability. Sometimes it's necessary to have latest bootloader flashed because otherwise your device might not work well with new system update.

Does firmware.zip contains radio?
Yes, it does contain radio, and for S-ON devices the only method to update radio is to flash latest firmware.zip

Why it's important to flash it before flashing custom ROM?
Because firmware.zip contains boot.img (ramdisk and kernel) that will replace custom boot.img from any custom ROM you have. That's why you have to flash firmware.zip first, because otherwise boot.img will be overwritten with stock one.
If you already flashed firmware.zip after flashing custom ROM, just flash this particular custom ROM again.

Does firmware.zip contains recovery?
Yes, it does contain recovery image, that's why after flashing firmware.zip you will have to flash custom recovery again, to be able to flash custom ROM afterwards.

Can I flash this firmware.zip on any HTC One?
Not if your device is S-ON. To be able to flash it on S-ON device, your modelid (example: PN0710000) and cidnum (example: HTC__001) must match the firmware.zip version you are about to flash.

If my modelid or cidnum doesn't match, can I brick my device if I try to flash firmware.zip anyway?
As long as your device is S-ON flashing firmware.zip with non matching modelid or cidnum will result in error and nothing will be flashed, so there is no risk of brick.

Do I need to have locked, unlocked or relocked bootloader to be able to flash firmware.zip?
Your bootloader needs to be relocked.

If I can't flash newest firmware.zip because of wrong modeid (MID) or cidnum (CID) does it mean I can't use custom ROM based on the latest HTC update?
In most cases you should be able to run any custom ROM as long as hboot update is not mandatory.

What if there is no firmware.zip for my MID/CID?
Try to find latest OTA update for your original stock ROM and send it to me. I will post firmware.zip here.

How to flash?
(bootloader needs to be relocked)
  1. Re-lock your bootloader (this will most probably wipe content of your device)
  2. Copy downloaded .zip to fastboot.exe location (e.g. c:/SDK/platform-tools/fastboot.exe)
  3. Re-name .zip file to firmware.zip
  4. Open command prompt
  5. Boot your device in fastboot mode (vol down + power ===> fastboot)
  6. Connect device to the PC
  7. In command prompt cd to fastboot.exe location
  8. Make sure you have correct modeid and cidnum (type: fastboot getvar all)
  9. Type: fastboot oem lock (if your device is not relocked yet)
  10. Type: fastboot oem rebootRUU and wait for device to reboot
  11. Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
  12. Sometimes flashing for the first time doesn't work, so flash firmware.zip again just to make sure.
  13. Type: fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and wait for process to complete
  14. Type: fastboot reboot
  15. Unlock your bootloader and flash custom recovery if you are going to use custom ROM.

Custom firmware



Overview​

  • Custom firmware - firmware.zip package built from RUU with the changed content (adsp.img, rpm.img, hboot.img and others).
  • These packages are not signed, so you need S-OFF in order to flash it.
  • I take no responsibility for any damaged caused to your device, you flash it at your own risk.
  • Flashing process is the same as for official firmware.zip taken from HTC OTA package.

Firmware package from 2.17.401.1 RUU​
  • There are new touch panel drivers inside this firmware that breaks touch in custom recoveries. You can flash it and use only hardware keys in custom recovery or you can remove tp_SYN3202.img from inside the package before flashing.
  • This device should work with no issue on any M7_UL PN0710000 device, however it might work on others too. You flash it at your own risk. More details here - HTC One variants [U/UL/WL]
  • If you want to add more modelid or cidnum open and edit android-info.txt inside firmware.zip package. Be careful with adding different modelid because you might end up with a bricked device.
  • Basically there is no clear reason why you should update this firmware, because it seems that all 4.2.2 custom ROMs are working perfectly fine with old firmware.
  • Read this and this
  • By default android-info.txt comes with the following modelid and cidnum:
modelid: PN0710000
cidnum: 11111111
cidnum: HTC__001
cidnum: HTC__E11
cidnum: HTC__102
cidnum: HTC__203
cidnum: HTC__405
cidnum: HTC__Y13
cidnum: HTC__304
cidnum: HTC__032
cidnum: HTC__A07
cidnum: HTC__J15
cidnum: HTC__016​

Hi mike, If my cid is htc_001 but i am coming from 1.28.401 firmware can i still flash your attached firmware to get back to stock or will it brick the phone due to a downgrade?
 
C:\Fastboot>fastboot oem rebootRUU

(bootloader) Start Verify: 3
OKAY [ 0.041s]

Mike, I'm confused.

This is what I have from my device:

C:\>fastboot getvar cid
cid: HTC__001


So, my CID is HTC__001 but in the first post you say:

If it's written "HTC__001" it means you can't flash it, if your CID is "02__001".


So, I can or can't flash this radio???


Also, I'm on ARHD 5.1. is it possible to flash this radio while I wait for the 6.0 rom???


Thanks in advance mate :)

Mate, is your CID 02__001? :) Does your CID match the one in firmware.zip? If yes, then you can flash it :)

Yes, you can flash it while waiting for 6.0 of Android Revolution HD.

    4.19.401.8 firmware added. have fun!
    9
    Guys, I have S-OFF, Super CID 11111111 (changed from HTC_001), relocked my bootloader, typed fastboot oem rebootRUU and it just gets stuck on the black screen with the silver HTC logo... I have tried it 3 times waiting upto 5 minutes and nothing.

    Any ideas what I am doing wrong.

    If you have S-Off, why you go through all the hazzle and relock your bootloader? With S-Off and Super CID the whole process is ready within 2 minutes.

    1. Extract 2.24.401.1.zip (IF you want WWE) and remove recovery.img and boot.img (if you are on XDA, I trust you use a custom ROM and have a custom Recovery...)
    2. Open android-info.txt and add your CID, in this case "cidnum: 11111111"
    3. Zip now to 2.24.401.1-custom.zip (make sure you don`t have an additional top level folder) and move this new custom zip to your fastboot folder
    4. Boot into fastboot (no need to relock)
    5. Connect your PC and type "fastboot oem rebootRUU"
    6. Now type "fastboot flash zip 2.24.401.1-custom.zip" (1rst run only copies files)
    7. When ready immediately type again "fastboot flash zip 2.24.401.1-custom.zip" (this will actually flash the firmware now)
    8. When output is successfull type "fastboot reboot"

    That`s it - fast and easy.
