Its for different htc phone bt may work

As far as I'm aware the **tampered** flag is there in the same spirit as the yellow triangle on Samsung devices, exactly so they can tell you've unlocked and modified it. Unfortunately, I do not believe there is currently a method such as with triangleaway to get rid of this on the One yet. You'll just have to chance it and send it back as is

That's probably why I don't find anything about how to fix that, However if this is a dev phone this should be allow that's part of what developers do I think.
If is like that I guess I'm fu..ked damm..! I never care to read more before I root my cell because I didn't though I'll have to return it
now I'm gonna pay the consecuenses.
Thank you guys

RUU
If you download and the One's RUU from HTC's website, it erases the tampered. I discovered this when I had to restore my device to stock with the RUU.

Should be to download the RUU, run the RUU. The bootloader needs to be relocked.
After you set set it back to factory, just unlock the bootloader and you're free to go.
If the exe version doesn't work, the fastboot version should.

Both Brightstar US listed above is the Developer Edition. The CID is BS_US001 (I think they should of used a better CID letters!!). The first one is the EXE, the other is the ZIP for the fastboot version.
I have the Developer Edition as well and have used both EXE and ZIP versions.

Thank you guys IT WORKED.....!

You need to open a new thread for this, that is an entirely different phone model. Also, list exactly what you did that caused the problem. People will help, but you need to be in the right place.

[Q] How to update to 1.08? RUU won't work.

I already rooted my First on 1.05 and want to update to 1.08 since I want to go S-OFF and I saw in that thread it's for 1.08.
I tried the RUU dozens of times on 2 completely different Windows 7 x64 PCs. It sat at the Sending...... step for awhile with the phone on an HTC logo screen, and then ended in Error 155. I also tried booting into FASTBOOT USB and trying it. Same thing. Has anyone got the RUU to work? If so, what's your MD5 hash? Mine is 425MB and I would think it's a good copy since it was able to extract itself into Appdata\Local\Temp folder with no errors.
I saw in the RUU thread there's also just the OTA .zip. It won't install with TWRP. I'd have to flash to stock recovery to install it, but I couldn't find any place to get the stock recovery.
Any solutions?

I have a related problem, after bricking the phone I flashed the RUU and I cannot re unlock the bl again, anyway try to flash cwm instead of twrp and then retry with the Ota.zip. I don't know if this can solve your problem, but I've noticed that with twrp some roms did not work to me. I think also that the RUU does not work with unlocked bl, so you have first to relock, but if you do this you could have the same problem I have, that is you can't re unlock the bl... I am not an expert so I cannot assure you that these procedures are ok...

Thanks, that was the problem; I had to relock the bootloader and then the RUU worked. I was able to re-unlock the bootloader with no problems though. I used the All-In-One kit to do it and reused the Unlock_code.bin that I used on 1.05.

I must be blind, I swear I looked for flashable zips but couldn't find them. Too late since I already flashed the RUU, but hopefully that will help someone else who runs into this issue.

So the kornklown69 theory that also mine is correct, is S-OFF the problem. To re-unlock probably the phone must be S-ON.
So the procedure could be: Relock -> S-ON -> Re-unlock -> S-OFF.
But I don't understand how to obtain S-ON again.
Anyway my phone is Relocked and I can install custom roms, kernels and root it... Very strange!

That makes sense. With my original Droid Incredible, an S-OFF hack came out before HTC official BL unlocking and there was never any reason to unlock it since S-OFF was all you needed to install custom ROMs and root. So if you're S-OFF, there's probably no need to re-unlock it.

Having the same issue. In another thread, jmz said:
In my stock Rom thread there are new files up. They are the ota roms. So if you are running stock, download the odex one ending in 1.08 and flash in recovery, no need to wipe data. Then pull boot.img and fastboot flash it. You now have the ota software. I will post instructions to upgrade the firmware that came with the ota

I know what the odexed rom is, but can someone explain how to get the boot.img and fastboot flash it? Or should I just relock the bootloader?

[Q] Need help getting back to stock

Hello, I have rooted (s-on) my Htc one m8 Harmon/Kardon edition. I have seen a lot of threads and guides showing how to do this but none of them seem to apply to my specific cid, which is SPCS_004. I haven't been able to find any compatible nandroid backups. I think maybe im just in over my head and I don't want to mess anything up....can anyone point me in the right direction?

Yes it will wipe your phone just like it came from the factory, so backup anything important to your PC.
Yes there a HK RUU's and non HK RUU's in the thread I linked.

You can download the RUU directly from HTC:
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-harman-kardon-edition-sprint/news/
It is located at the bottom of the page. But you might want to wait a few days and download the Lollipop RUU when it releases. It will replace the current KK version once approved and FOTA is pushed out.

Here are some things to try.
Did you re-lock your bootloader?
Try a different USB port (USB2 work best)
Try a different PC.
To get back to bootloader press power vol up until the screen turns black then hold vol down.
If you know how to use adb/fastboot commands you can open a cmd and type
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Make sure the rom you are on is as close to stock as possible.
Downgrading to a KK rom = yes
Downgrading firmware = no
Easiest way to run Sunshine is to RUU.

I'm not a Sprint customer and never have been and it's been a while since I have had an HTC product.
My problems would be solved if I could downgrade the firmware, I did install a unsecured Kernel but it did not matter.

Use the most recent sprint ruu to return to stock
I just went through this yesterday. I was having the same problem.
I'm on sprint so my solution should apply.
1. Return to stock with the sprint Lollipop ruu
2. Get unlock from htcdev - - > unlock your bootloader
3. Flash the latest version of twrp
4. Boot into twrp, then reboot system.
4a. Twrp should prompt you to install su and obtain root
4b. Let twrp root your system.
5. Let the phone complete the su install via twrp
6. Get sunshine s-off
7. Pay $25
8. Enjoy s-off

I was able to reach the hidden screen and select the "sim lock" but backing out and rebooting from the sim unlock helper screen did not work.
I had to select "reboot" from the same menu located just a couple of items up from the Sim lock selection. Make sure "Data" is on and GSM is selected.
I was successful only on the "Viper 1.0.0 rom.
I now have a working T-mobile connection..

[Q] Stuck on black screen after updating

So the other day I got the update for 4.25.654.14 but found out I couldn't update without relocking my bootloader and reinstalling the stock recovery since I'm S-On. Today I got to reinstalling stock recovery but I forgot to relock the bootloader before installing the update and now I'm stuck on a black screen after the initial HTC splash screen. I was able to get back into bootloader and relock the bootloader, but that didn't do anything. Anyone know how to fix this?

The RUU contains the whole software(including firmware and ROM) so it should work, but it MAY wipe the whole SD (most of the time it does), so backup everything on a computer. You will need the proper RUU file and a re-locked bootloader ONLY if S-ON.

You can run a RUU but doing so will wipe your internal storage so make sure you back it up to your computer first. Also, if S-on you will need to re-lock your bootloader using the command fastboot oem lock prior to running the RUU.
