In November, I helped my friend unlock and root his T-Mobile HTC One S using Hasoon's All-In-One-Toolkit.
He left the ROM as stock, and hasn't uninstalled any apps or bloats.
A couple weeks ago he got the OTA message to update. When he hits the notification to proceed with the update, the following happens:
phone resets
clockwork mod recovery v5.8.3.1
finding update package...
e: unknown volume for path [internals dcard: download/OTA_Ville_U_ICS_40_S_TMOUS_2.35.531.10-1.84.531.2_release_2978576yp8mjiw19tsxxey.zip]
e: can't mount INTERNAL SDCARDownload/OTA(tons of numbers).zip
His current software version is 1.84.531.2.710ORD, and he's on Android 4.0.3.
What needs to be done to enable the OTA update? I'm not near him, but I can talk him through it with Skype. I'm just not used to the HTC environment and terminology.
All he needs is to relock bootloader and install stock recovery, here is a link to download it from my dropbox..

Put the phone into bootloader.
Type in the following command in a command shell, opened in the adb directory: fastboot oem lock

Your friend will need to have the phone drivers installed and an adb/fastboot folder set up (similar to the "data" folder from Hasoon's All-In-One-Toolkit with fastboot, adb, etc.). Get the phone to the bootloader then go to fastboot mode and connect the USB (it should say "fastboot usb"). Now flash the stock recovery by running the following command in the terminal:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery stock_recovery.img
then lock the bootloader with this command:
Code:
fastboot oem lock

Unlock your bootloader, download this backup (2.34.401.5) drive.google.com/file/d/0B5LDnn44r6-JYlNOaXJGa2NmZkk/view and restore it in TWRP. When backup is restored, flash stock recovery and do factory reset/wipe. When it's done you can boot into android

You need to flash it through computer. Use this drive.google.com/open?id=0B4Og2FG3PR_XNTZVYldvS0ZkaGM&authuser=0
Open the folder, hold left shift and right click anywhere in folder, open command prompt and type in "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". You need to place recovery.img in that folder or it won't work, and your phone must be in fastboot mode.

Use fastboot & ADB guide for beginners. Download all required files so your PC can Connect to OPO VIA USB from PC. What PC OS do u use? Windows or Linux. Watch how to unlock boot loader, root, & install recovery tool or Return to stock OnePlus one YouTube video. Easiest start. Your phone will be OK. U need to down load drivers so u can use your PC to talk to your phone - pass instruction & activate 1+1 options. Install CM 11 or whatever ROM u want to use, as well as, 1+1 tools u may have lost is Recovery Tool.

You don't need a recovery to unlock the bootloader. Just boot it into fastboot mode, connect it to your Mac, and type 'fastboot oem-unlock' on the Terminal. Be careful, though, because you WILL lose ALL of your data!

Hmmm no recovery? When u hold down volume + power ?
Did u find the fastboot & adb tools for Mac?
What happens when u hold volume key up + power button at same time after turning device off?
What happens if u $fastboot devices -
Can u issue cmd "$fastboot oem unlock"
Know its frustrating but have to keep trying till u get in. Just have the rom files unzipped on your Mac ready to flash 1+1 when u get in. Its how I did it. When I wasn't able to but into recovery. Get on fastboot go thru OEM unlock, then flash 1+1. Follow the install script manually. Open script w plain text reader & just issue cmds following script. I don't trust scripts I + automation to get things unstuck.

Use Google, there are plenty of guides available online. Once you have fastboot working the best thing to do is to flash the stock images with fastboot. I have detailed instructions in section 8a of my guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2839471
Please note that fastboot commands are slightly different on a Mac but you'll see that when you view a guide on how to set it up and use it.

There's no point in duplicating my guide when all that's needed are a couple of extra characters prefixing each fastboot command.

You definitely can't boot into recovery? Most times not being able to get into recovery it's a case of user error. Hold volume down, then hold power (so you're holding them together), when you see the OnePlus boot logo let go of power but keep holding volume down until you reach recovery.
Hello,
Can someone please direct me how to go back to stock after rooting my phone and flashing RR with Franco kernel. I need to give it back to google. Also is it possible to lock bootloader again?
Thank you.
Simple process download factory image for your device, put it in bootloader mode, extract the .Zip and run flash-all.bat
Wait till it finishes setup device.
Then boot back to bootloader and use the adb command to relock bootloader

What's the command for relocking bootloader?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/development/pixel-image-t3477107
Is this the link for the image?
Google pixel factory image. And look the code up, the more you research the less you will have to ask, it will make doing things alot easier, adb commands are very easy
Hello,
I have MIX 3 Chinese version, unlocked bootloader, flashed latest global. Fine
For security purposes, tried to lock bootloader with fastboot - I knew it may be risky- now the device is in Mi recovery 3, refused to reboot even after erase data.
How to bring it back to life.
Thanks
Use the XiaoMiTool V2.

Fastboot is fairly simple. Download the latest Chinese from from miui.com, unzip it, connect your device in fastboot mode, and run the flash_all.bat file. It will take a while and the command prompt window will close when it is finished and your device will reboot.

I am downloading the ROM.
Please can provide step by step instructions?
My understanding is to:
1. copy the rom in minimal fastboot directory
2. unzip all files in that same directory (or should I create new one?)
3. Execute the command below:
fastboot flash_all.bat
By the way, can I use fastboot with locked bootloader?
Thanks again

If you have ADB installed system wide, then it doesn't matter where you unzip the full image to. The best way to have ADB installed system wide is through this method.
You don't need to type anything. Just open the folder the ROM was decompressed in, right click the flash_all.bat, and run it as administrator with your device connected in fastboot mode. It will literally do everything else.

Did you install ADB 1.4.3 from the thread linked to? Do you have your device connected to a USB 3 port or USB 2 port? Are you using the cable that came with your device to flash it? Were you booted into the bootloader when trying to flash?
Edit: Read that post wrong. You need to download the fastboot version. You can't flash the TWRP image using fastboot.

Won't be possible with the Mi unlock software as the phones been wiped - no account, no OEM allowed ticked etc.
in that case, your only hope is: sending it back to china

In UK. Gray import. I really don't understand why a manufacturer should let this be possible. Why not just make it unlockable with global rom? This will avoid such unwanted situation for everybody. Pissed off by Xiaomi
