I inadvertently posted this on the wrong forum. Just re-posting this in the correct location and adding some notes.
Hi all,
I started down a slippery slope which was what I hoped was an easy task of upgrading a relative's android phone to a later version into a several day ordeal with a broken phone.
I have a Vodafone from germany HTC One S. I wanted to upgrade to android 4.3 which seems to require a firmware update, but I'm having a very hard time finding the correct version of the RUL to apply.
Can someone help me if you happen to have that wonderful file laying around.
Here's my device's: fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) version: 0.5

I'm currently running:
Android 4.1.1
Software Number: 1.14.709.16
Kernel: 3.4.10-gf987dcd
I would really really appreciate it if anyone had the correct RUU or could point me in the right direction.
Thanks so much.
The reason my bootloader is locked is because from what I read it needed to be locked in order to perform a firmware update. If that's not the case I can easily unlock it again.
Older thread for reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/help/looking-correct-ruu-vodafone-t3440997
Did the RUU u got from "alray" work? (cant post the androidfilehost link, but the file name is PJ40IMG_Ville_U_JB_45_S_Vodafone_UK_3.16.161.10_Radio_1.15.50.05.29_10.30.50.08L_release_314501_signed.zip)
Edit:
OH MY GOD... it works, after 20 hours of serching in this Forum i found you and your Link. Now i have a working OS for the first time. I got this Phone without OS,S-on and twrp was not working properly (unable to mount SD-card) Now I have a Base and I can proceed my Plans, unlock bootloader again, get SuperCID, S-off, a recovery and a custom ROM with root. Thank you so much!!

Hi guys!
So I had a fun adventure unlocking, and installing a custom ROM on my HTC One S, however, looking back I miss the stock phone features, and sense UI (don't hate me). Looking through these forums I've found a few tutorials on flashing a stock RUU, however, I can't seem to find a proper RUU for my phone and carrier would love if someone knew where to get one?
Here are some deets

Any help would be amazing. I know that Virgin Mobile is basically Bell Mobility here in Canada. But I'm having trouble matching up the right baseband, radio thingy
Thanks

Woah! Fellow carrier user.
There is no Jellybean RUU for BM.
Download this OTA.zip and flash using the method given in my signature to get stock.

OMG Thank you so much I have been looking for this forever. I actually ended up flashing to TrickDroid 10.3.2 and it's amazing! But at least now I have a OTA to go back to if something goes funky
Thanks again!

Hi there,
The mission of XDA Assist is to provide basic help to those who have tried searching but can't find what they are looking for and need assistance.
This is not a "helpdesk" providing technical assistance but more to point you in the correct direction with your problem.
So, you already posted your problem in the right thread here and you only must wait some answer from the users who know how to do it.
Or read this guide and follow the instructions: [GUIDE] How to Return to 100% Stock or [Guide] Firewater S-Off (thanks to @Perseus71)
Good luck
Hi! so I bought an Factory unlocked M8 from amazon to upgrade my M7, I check for updates and none, go to HTC see there is marshmallow for factory unlocked phones. I made a post on android forums and a guy helped me with info on my phone apparently it was an LRA phone a variant of verizon, I have T-Mobile as my carrier and the phone works on the network. I have loaded custom recovery, changed the CID, have SU and S-OFF. I read that I can turn this into a Dev edition and get marshmallow, and I couldn't get the firmware to flash (Thank god because I might have bricked my phone) If anyone can help me with the correct firmware or point me to a guide to do what I need to do it would be greatly appreciated. I can also provide any information you need.
Thanks in advance!

ok since no one has responded, here is another question, do I need to flash firmware on this phone to use a rom?
You can't flash dev edition firmware on Verizon variant device.
You can flash Verizon latest firmware. I'd link you to it but I'm on my phone. It's easily found however.
Edit: here ya go
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...zw-m8-master-ruu-firmware-collection-t2946473
As for using T-Mobile - no idea so can't help in that area. Idk if u flash T-Mobile ROM or verixoy and edit APNs.
But I do know u want to flash Verizon firmware I linked above.

Awesome, just wanted to make sure I wouldn't damage my phone, otherwise i would have to go back to using my m7. Thanks for the link much appreciated!
one last question, if I flash t-mobile radios would it interfere with anything since I use their network? or just keep the APN settings.

No idea about using T-Mobile on Verizon. I'd stick to the firmware meant for the device.
Others may be able to chime in.
were you able to find firmware for your device?
I also have LRA__001, I had flashed the wrong one and i have no signals now, using it as a TAB
Hi Guyz,
I am really stuck and I have tried every possible solution online but unable to solve it. I have HTC Sensation Pyramid stuck in boot loop. Although I am able to boot into bootloader but unable to do anything else. Its board was replaced so default HTC Dev Unlock don't work. Every other solution require to boot into the ROM and enable debugging for ADB like JuopunutBear S-OFF and Rumrunner.

According your current device status your device should have been S-OFFed before.
As I can see you have SuperCID and your hboot version is higher than it should be as long as you probably had installed a European RUU and it should have an earlier version of hboot.
So the only solution for you will be to flash an official pyramid RUU for any carrier you like with version-main 1.45.401.3 or greater.
You can find Pyramid RUU's here.
I would sugest you to install the lattest RUU for the carrier of your choice.If you want a European RUU you can download a 3.33 fireware and S-OFF your device.
Juopunutbear S-OFF [NO HTCDEV UNLOCK]
Rumrunner S-OFF [NO NEED HTCDEV UNLOCK/NO WIRE TRICK]

Hi Gatosbil,
Thank you so soo much for the reply and to be honest, after trying everything on net, I put my phone in my "history box" lol... but you gave me hope that I might resurrect it back to life. Well, it does came back to life!! RUU 1.45.401.3 gave me Signature Error so I tried downloading and install 3.33.401.6 with success. And its alive now!!! Thanks to you
Now the S-OFF part, Juopunutbear require Ubuntu and I had a very bad experience with that as by running windows 10 and ubuntu on same system, my hard drive crashed and I lost a lot of data. Yes Live CD might work, but my laptop is 2 years old and I haven't used DVD-Rom for a long time and its not reading data from any CD or DVD. And Rumrunner website is giving Database error so I can not download anything from there until they fix the website. I will keep checking and as soon as its back, I will try Rumrunner to S-OFF and will let you know how it goes.

i will send the juopuntubear files(windows) for S-OFF via pm
but know this i don't think it will work on win10
Sorry if I am posting this in the incorrect forum. This is my first posting,
Anyway, I have a T-Mobile HTC One S ville and have been trying to set s-off so I can install the Lineage ROM. I rooted and unlocked the phone and installed the CM-12.1 Rom without any problems. Unfortunately, when I tried to run the Sunshine app, I discovered (too late) that the phone must be running its stock rom or near-stock rom. After many attempts to find a stock rom, I successfully installed MaximusHD 10.0.0, but am unable to install the firmware, so I am unable to obtain a wifi connection due to authentication problems. I then tethered the phone to my laptop and was able to gain internet access, and the Sunshine app ran successfully for the first set of tests. When Sunshine attempted to run the next set of tests, it disconnected the tether. So I am stuck on how to proceed.
Here are the getvar readings:

You're in luck my friend, I'm in the same boat as you trying to get this thing running good to play some old Android games.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=95832962473394309
Let me know if you get S-Off, there seems to be carrier resrictions on our TMO devices. I've thought about extracting the ROM.zip of a Global RUU, and flashing it through fastboot manually, but don't want to brick my phone haha.
