You can't. If you go back to S-ON and flash stock RUU, there will be " RE-LOCKED" sign not "LOCKED" when you go into bootloader menu. And that's the reason you will not be able to repair the phone under warranty.

Try relocking the bootlaoder that should work

Tried that, still didn't work, I went through the log at and its some weird cid error, it doesn't authenticate, I'm searching for a method on how to skip that step during the ruu flash process, but I do have the correct ruu, also the phone does not let me change cid so other then thatbtheres nothing I can do:/

To install RUU:
SW version of RUU must be newer or the same as max version ever installed in the phone(including fota).
CID must match.
Bootloader MUST be relocked.
That is basically it. No point of skipping anything, the bootloader in the phone performs the check there is no way to fool it. Making it s-off is also pointless since RUU flashes new bootloader first, then reboots the device to flash everything else, your phone will become s-on.
How I fix this? JTAG.

Back in the day that I had major issues I did s off and everything then flashed GB ruu and it went fine. Ofc you will still need the correct cid or follow the guide in Dev section on how to flash a ruu with different cid.

It think it is much easier to flash CWM stock rom, then kill recovery and relock bootloader and wait for newer RUU. The phone will be "stock" basically.
And also this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26318550&postcount=2
I could not get to work on the phone after latest FOTA.
Making the phone S-OFF if it does not boot is also a pain in the but))).

Yes s off needs a booting system usually it will fail otherwise. Perhaps using dd commands from recovery or boot loader will do the trick but from me its untested.

I did solve this problem with a purpose brick then riffbox JTAG (full wipe, s-off, deleted recovery partition and relocked boot loader) also i noticed after tagging my phone, i was still curious about why it wasn't flashing the ruu, i downloaded the one dazz provided(ics) and i got an older version (GB) i tried ICS first.. Fail! I tried GB... Success i think it might be a corrupted ruu file, but then again the link that anders gave The ruu didn't work either...

you need to relock bootloader before you use rru,
fastboot oem lock
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
also you need the correct rru, or change your cid in phone, download the latest rru for your CID
also are you on vodaphone?
the latest rru is ICS 2.31.401.2 this may be slightly different for ausie
austrailian cids are:
023 htc
001 hutchinson 3g, optus
021 vodaphone austrailia
The ruu is the correct one (VODAPO21) and it does not let me install ICS based ruu

[Q] HTC ONE back to Stock (Locking bootloader and removing root)

So i need to sell my phone because of several cash flow reasons. :crying: The person who is buying off me doesnt want the phone to be rooted. I tried looking for a back to stock thread but found nothing so far, or i am not looking hard enough.
So i just need the root to be gone and the bootloader to be locked as it was. How do i do that? Your help is greatly appreciated. I got a day to settle all this

Go to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582 site and get S-Off and then you will be able to downgrade to 4.1.2. Up date it and then go S-On and lock the boottloader. All is written in the OP of the mentioned site.

can we get this on a mac? All i see is on windows
On top of that, some of the RUU's are in exe and some are in zip. I downloaded an .exe one. Can i use that to flash in recovery?

I know that if you can get a Windows Vitual machine running on Mac you can do it.
Then when the RUU is running you can search for the ROM
Check it out. I know if you use the HTC one AIIO toolkit you can flash the extracted data to your device. Even the recovery.img from a stock RUU.
Let me know how you get on

Lock the bootloader with revone and flash a RUU (European or WWE), like this one http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/1...13323127-1031113105-release-310878-signedexe/, then run revone and remove tampered message (if you have that) in bootloder but i would keep S-Off if i we`re you forever.

Unfortunately it comes up with this, and then fails at updating a while later. Turns out my hboot is 1.54 so I can't use revone right?
I remember there is a method of tricking the ruu in to thinking the device is older.if I'm not mistaken it's the changing of the cid
But someone would need to verify that one

You probably need S-Off for that right? I'm on the 1.54 hboot and the s-off method only works on 1.44 I think.
The thing is, I just noticed factory reset did not remove root.. So i'll try to unroot it first and then run the update agaib.

Returning to stock for warranty

Hi.
Here's my problem.
I work in the steel industry and keep getting fine metal particals on my HTC one speakers. I blew them only with my mouth so no real force behind it to get rid of the crap build up.
Now both my speakers are crackling really bad. Even at low volume.
Rand HTC this morning to arrainge a repair.
Problem is I'm rooted, s-off and running android revolution hd.
Wasn't planning on running back to stock. What's best prosedure to do this?

If you can use revone to relock and remove the tampered from your H-BOOT.
Then use an RUU to flash back to stock, and that should then have you back at stock with S-On and no tampered notice
Cheers mate Il try that.
I'm gutted. 10 days it's gona take.

If i'm not mistaken you will need to flash it first with the RUU and then relock it.
this is what i did
lock bootloader
revone -t to remove tampered and revone -l to change relocked to locked
run RUU
then fastboot oem writesecureflag 3 gives you s-on
back to stock, bootloader says locked, no tampered and s-on

I've managed to restore a backup of stock 4.1.2 firmware I had that I didn't realise.
Can I not just relock and s-on now without the ruu?

Yeah you should be able to relock now and gain S-On again. If you are completly sure that its stock.
But keep in mind the recovery will need to be flashed to stock.
So I would still advice doing the RUU to be on the safe side.
ive managed to relock bootloader and use revone to gain s on again.
having issues now removing the TAMPERED label.
keep getting an error
revone failed (error code = -2)
any ideas

Tampered means you have unsigned software installed, probably recovery is not stock.

Tempered means you have unlocked your bootloader, revone doesnt work with other Hboot version but 1.44
That why you're getting that error.
Also, you cant get s-on by revone

1. This is the wrong section you've posted in.
2. Hold volume down and power for around 10 seconds to enter your hboot screen. This will say s-on or s-off at the top, along with hboot 1.44 or 1.54. If you have 1.54 you can't get s-off yet.

Sending HTC One to warranty repair due to purple camera issue.

I will send my HTC One of service to Regenersis Poland but do not want them to see that I have S-OFF, what can I do to make them not to see that I have S-OFF?
I dont want to lose S-OFF if possible.
The reason why I'm sending mobile in service is due to purple camera issue.

You can just put s-on back when you get your phone back.
Can you just keep s-off but relock boot loader and restore stock Rom? Then just unlock when you get phone back....this way you retain your s-off.
I've heard that some HTC phones ship with s-off.
I think being locked and stock Rom and stock firmware should be sufficient.
