Here we have the RUU for the Sprint HTC One 4.06.651.4!!! This RUU is for the Sprint One ONLY to restore your phone back to stock. If you are S-ON, you MUST relock your bootloader prior to using this RUU.

HUGE Thanks to the dude who hooked me up, you're awesome!

credit to @-viperboy- for decrypting, thanks!


***IMPORTANT NOTE*** you must first update your hboot to 1.56 to flash this 4.06 RUU, see full firmware below ( I recommend being s-off before doing so)






How to use:

-Download Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_4.06.651.4_RUU.zip
-extract zip to a folder on your pc
-boot into bootloader (various ways)
-using fastboot, type this cmd: fastboot oem lock this will relock the bootloader (S-ON ONLY)
-from pc, run ARUWizard.exe from the extracted folder. it will run the RUU utility & flash back to stock



DEVs, here is the Decrypted version!

Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_4.06.651.4_RUU_decrypted.zip

These new RUU's now have the system.img split into 3 imgs. You must combine prior to extracting. Copy all 3 to a folder, then...

Use this cmd for Windows:

copy /b system_1.img + system_2.img + system_3.img newsystem.img

Use this cmd for Linux:

cat system_1.img system_2.img system_3.img > newsystem.img


credit to @-viperboy- for the cmds, thanks!



Here is the extracted Firmware:


Full Firmware from RUU (fastboot flashable): http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407568410


Modified Firmware w/ Radio....removed hboot, boot, recovery (fastboot flashable): http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407574146


some basic instructions for flashing the modified firmware....

-rename firmware to firmware.zip
-copy firmware.zip to your sdk folder
-boot into bootloader
-plug in usb
-select fastboot option (screen should say fastboot usb)
-type Fastboot oem rebootRUU
-when u see the black screen w/ HTC, type Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
-when it's done, type Fastboot reboot

Here's a nice video from @thoughtlesskyle showing you how to flash the firmware:

This is what I get every time. After following this guide I am normally able to use fastboot/adb just fine.

I am on rumrunner hboot 1.55.5555
Let me know what other info I can provide.. Please help!

Edit:

I ran the utility on my XP computer, and it gave me a little more info: "The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again."

Is the RUU different than the OTA?
The end result are the same.
The OTA will update the the version of android you are on and keepall of your data intact
The RUU will wipe everything on your phone and reset it as it was when it was brand new but with the latest version of android or the version of the RUU you are using.

Can you confirm the windows 8.1 drivers are installed?

Thanks... knew that part but was wondering why anyone would rebase based on the RUU then.

when u install an OTA, alot of files are "patched", RUU is just cleaner. When I diffed the 4.06 dump against the RUU, most of the files were binary equal but there were 250+ that were not.

OP updated with 4.06 firmware, which includes the radio & much more that were not in the OTA....this will be especially handy for users that are on older versions of JB that need to get caught up.

i updated to kit kat and now I don't have simultaneous voice and LTE which I used to have...anyone else notice this? I know that simultaneous voice and 3G was never an option(unlike the EVO 4G LTE) but I always had simultaneous LTE + Voice...this sucks!!

I'm trying to run the RUU but I am getting an error 158. The installer runs and gets my phone to the black HTC screen then it fails. After exiting the installer my phone does a reboot and I'm back into my ROM (Bad Boys 4.4.2 v1.1). My phone is running unlocked HBOOT 1.44 and is S-OFF. Any ideas? Searching has netted some hits on other device forums but nothing terribly helpful for the One specifically. Should I take the Rom.zip out of the 4_06_651_4 folder and try to flash it with fastboot? If so is that ok to do unlocked or do I need to do an oem lock first?

You run this RUU from your PC not fastboot.

Understood, apologies if my post wasn't clear. When running the RUU installer from my PC I get an error 158. I was asking if anyone knows what is causing this/how to fix it or if I can work around it by manually running fastboot flash zip rom.zip and if that was safe to do unlocked.

Thanks for your help!

Unless I am mistaken, you have to relock your bootloader to run the RUU.
