Hey guys, I have S-OFF on hboot 1.55 with 3.09 firmware (I s-offed on hboot 1.44 before flashing the firmware), SuperCID, along with rooted ARHD 20.2, what is the proper sequence to return back to the latest official stock os and radios (everything stock) without all the warnings and stuff (tampered and unlocked)?

search is your friend
i was wondering if there is a way to get s-off with hboot 1.55 on kit kat. i tried using rumrunner and it said to download an updated version of rumrunner at rumrunner.us. however, i was already running the latest version of rumrunner. is there something i am doing wrong? I am on the at&t htc one with unlocked bootloader and root running sense 5.5 4.4 insercoin rom
I'm pretty sure you need to install an older ROM first. There are lots of threads covering this.
I hoping I can get some clarification on this subject. I may have to take my phone into Sprint for either repair or new phone since it will not connect to the newly added 4G network in my area. So going back to stock my be needed for me to do so.
Since the RUU for the 4.4.2 update isn't available yet, is there a way to downgrade back to 4.3 so I can return back to stock? I did the OTA update in stock, then gained root access.
Does the process require me to turn S-Off? I'm currently S-On running Running Bad Boyz Sprint ONE KitKat v1.0.
If I go S-Off, is there a way to turn it back S-On? Not sure if Sprint will look at this setting.
Also, I have the update radio and hboot
HBOOT- 1.56.0000
RADIO- 1.00.20.1108
OS- 4.06.651.4
Will I have to downgrade my hboot as well?
Any help will be much appreciated

You're S-On. Your only option is to perform a factory reset, flash the stock recovery and re-lock your bootloader.

hi I just came across one of the Sprint HTC Max on 4.4.2 with 2.49 hboot. I'd like to unlock the phone but can't find a hboot file to downgrade. Currently s-off, rooted, TWRP and unlocked. It would be great if you could help a brotha out...
Thanks,
Sonny

I am currently running 4.06.651.4 with baseband 1.00.20.0315 and Hboot 1.44.
as I undertand, the only way to remove root on Kitkat is to flash a RUU which unfortunately also comes with the updated Hboot 1.56
I do not want to update my Hboot to 1.56.
is there anyway I can unroot the phone?

If you're S-OFF you should be able to run an older RUU
Technically if you want to remove root, you can just delete the su and busybox binaries from the /system partition.
Hi,
I am running latest lp stock rom with hboot 1.57, bootloader unlocked and s-off. Its all running fine but do i need for any reason to update hboot to newer?
