[help] back to stock

hello! I have to send my HTC One in for warrenty:
I am now s-off, bootloader locked, super-CID, custom Rom, HBoot 1.44.0000, custom recovery.
What do i have to do bevore sending it in? My One is from T-Mobile germany. Firmware version 1.29.111.11
If i runn an RUU does it flash stock recovery? or do have have to do this manually?
Instead of running a RUU (i cant find an t-mobile germany ruu) is it possible to flash a stock nanadroid backup (http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/444-m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-t-mob101-1281116/ ?)?
how do i get S-on again?

OK, now i am back to T-MOB101 cid! Am i now able to flash this nandroid backup (http://bugsylawson.com/files/file/444-m7-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-t-mob101-1281116/ ) ? Or is there anything to do before?

does anyone know where to find stock T-Mobile germy revovery? or can i simply use the 401 one?

yes since you have s-off you can use revone again to "lock" your bootloader and remove "tampered" flag after this, don't forget to go back to s-on again. then you should be completely stock.

no, use "revone" to "lock" (first link), after this use the toolkit to s-on (second link). root is not needed for these steps.

i can't say for sure. i'd recommend you to use revone, it's safer in my opinion. you've used revone to get s-off, didn't you? so just do the same again and use the instructions in the revone thread (i already postet the link for you)
the s-on function should work fine, but WAIT, first "lock" the bootloader..

[Q] S-OFF Through HTC Dev with 1.54 Firmware

Hi guys,
just one quick question. I have my phone stuck in S-ON after upgrading into new firmware (HBOOT 1.54). It is clear that revone (the one I used to S-OFF the first time) is currently unable to S-OFF my phone right now. Therefore now I'm considering S-OFF through HTC Dev. Will HTC Dev S-OFF work with 1.54 HBOOT?
Another question would be, apart from getting wiped and lose some application, what disadvantage will S-OFF through HTC Dev brings?
Thanks for the help

you can unlock the bootloader and install custom roms/kernels but no s-off, which might be a problem if you need to send your phone to warranty because they could deny warranty on the re/unlocked status of the bootloader.

Why did you s-on in the first place? You can't s-off, you're stuck for now. HTC Dev can only unlock your bootloader.

I didn't S-ON it on purpose. It went S-ON automatically after firmware update and few resets. I have no slightest idea why it went S-ON. So... it seems I'm doomed for now...

With the HTC ONE toolkit you can unlock your bootloader and flash a custom recovery.
Very easy. I'm in the same situation at this moment. hboot 1.54.
I also got a question about this.
When I'm in the toolkit and I want to use the mainver error fix I always get Device not Found. Is this also because i'm on hboot 1.54 or maybe not a correct setting somwhere (adb?).

But through the toolkit, the unlocking process will use the HTC Dev method which erases the phone's internal memory and some part which contains some apps right? Any other cons which shouldn't I unlock through HTC Dev?

Here it is but be careful

Go there, register an account
http://www.htcdev.com/
after that click on the "developer center" button and right in the middle you will find a "unlock bootloader" button
click on it, follow instructions, but make sure you have a full backup of your storage cause it will be erased
S-OFF is a security flag that gives you permission to "play" with organic partitions of the devices system in a way
you don't need it for having custom recovery, after you unlock you can flash a recovery the exact same way you did with S-OFF or restore a backup you did before reverting to complete stock
S-OFF for most users is only a solution to not losing warranty after unlocking as unlocking actually voids your software warranty and in a way the hardware warranty as HTC can claim that the unofficial software you used actually damaged the device.
If I helped to make you understand in any way I am glad but please if you don't understand what these procedures do or how they work in a general sense it's better not to use/perform them, if you are in any way like me who spent the better part of a salary to buy this phone it would be a shame wasting all that money bricking it out of ignorance, if not, it's still a shame.

Yea it wipes everything so I suggest you back up anything important to you before you unlock... And there aren't any other cons except the fact that it will wipe EVERYTHING (apps, contacts synced with phone, music, pictures, etc.), thats the only con to it

I think there is some confusion here for the OP.
First, S-off and unlocking your bootloader are 2 completely different things. To install custom recoveries, and therefore custom Roms and kernels, you need an unlocked bootloader (I am not sue what all the talk of relocking was about). The only way for you to unlock at this point is with HTCdev, and this will wipe your device unfortunately. Their are guides to unlocking and rooting your phone in this very forum

[SOLVED] Achieve S-OFF with 4.3 GPe Rom

Not first time flasher, I installed a stock GPe 4.3 rom on my One and now I want to fully convert it. Right now, the device is:
- CID = TELUS001 (Telus in Canada)
- Bootloader: Unlocked
- HBoot: 1.44
- S-ON
My attempt to achieve S-OFF with Revone, in order to proceed to the first steps of the conversion, was unsuccessful because of my 4.3 rom. My question is about my next move. As I am unable to recover a non corrupted Telus RUU, I was wondering which option would best suit my needs:
1. I flash any 4.2 rom and then achieve S-OFF using Revone.
2. I get it back to stock using the Easy Stock Reset tool. Although I guess it won't work because of my CID but I probably miss something here.
3. Anything else.
I would like to have an advice/thought/coment on that.
Thanks

Okay, seems it didn't take long for me to become needy. I am simply having a hard time trying to find a 4.1.2 Sense 5 rom since everyone seems up to date, which I understand is the best thing in the World but just inconvienient for me right now. So if you would have to chose that kinda rom, what would be your pick ?

Use Guru Reset ROM: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-62-401-1-zip/
flashable through CWM or TWRP, select WIPE, select ROOT, unselect "stock recovery"
then use rumrunner to get S-Off

[Q] Uhm I need help!

So I was running stock rooted and decided to run the Google Play Edition rom the latest one. It isnt in a bootloop but when I get to the home screen the screen is black, blinks for a second and goes back to being a black screen. Was wondering if I should just let the phone die and see if I could still boot in recovery and maybe flash a backup. But as of now I dont have a phone and would appreciate someones help.

Are you S-ON? If so, did you fastboot flash the boot.img?
Also if you're S-ON, you should S-OFF immediately to avoid these types of situations in the future .

I guess I should add instructions to my guide on how to fastboot flash kernels, huh?
Quick question, Cap. Is fastboot flashing the kernel only required for GPE when S-on, or is it AOSP in general? Reason I ask is I haven't seen much mention of it elsewhere.

While S-on you need to fastboot flash the boot.img. Hit the second link in my sig and read down to the portion on S-on kernel flashing. Once S-off you can just flash like normal and ignore the info above.

There are other reasons to S-off. Perhaps you should read the entire Hboot guide I wrote for the M8, not just the portion regarding flashing kernels while S-on.

[Q] need help getting back to stock on hk version

hey yall I been searching and reading all forums on going back to stock. theres only regular sprint htc m8 version and nothing on the hk edition so I can get the new ota and remain on stock. ive lost my back up file when I upload a custom rom. ive tried a bunch of things like using ruu and that but kept getting an error like a 32 and a 99. I cant get the s-on to turn off to get more. idk if im doing something wrong or what but im hoping someone can shine some light this way and help me out. yes I tired the sunshine apk but it pops up need based rom etc. so.........

You have to relock to use an RUU when you're still S-ON, and you must make sure that you're using an HK RUU.

not to seem stupid but this is a learning process for me coming from iphone to android. so when u say relock u mean bootloader? n do I need to have original recovery. and when I do the ruu im using fastboot it wont cuz me to have an error again right?

Yes, relock the bootloader (fastboot oem lock). That'll prevent the error 92 or whichever it was. It doesn't matter what recovery is on there, as the RUU will overwrite it with stock.

Did you review the instructions on how to flash it? I believe you extract the 0P6BIMG.zip from the larger zip file, and put it on your external SD.

You can try Firewater, but most likely you'll need to use SunShine.
