When i bought my phone it had 1.31 on it. Its now unlocked and rooted running a 4.3 ROM. Can I use the 1.29 RUU to return to stock or do I need to wait for a 1.31 RUU? I tried searching but I'm still confused. I'd like to install 1.29 to gain s-off. Thanks in advance.

S-Off using Revone and also use Revone to return bootloader to Locked and not Relocked or Tampered. Then you can run RUU to anything you want. Once you run RUU don't bother returning your device to S-On because in case you ever want to run a previous RUU again you can without issue until you return to S-On and at the same time you don't need root to return to S-On

Thanks for the quick replies. So revone will work on 1.31? Or do i have to follow the instructions in the link posted above? I thought I had to relock my bootloader then flash the 1.29 RUU to be able to use revone. One of the posters in the link above said he didn't have to downgrade from 1.31 to get s-off. My main reason for wanting s-off it to flash radios and firmwares. If i can use revone on 1.31 it would be much easier.
No, you do not need to downgrade from 1.31 to get S-Off using Revone. Just use the instructions in the Revone thread to get S-Off then use Revone to utilize the -t -l command to remove tampered and lock the bootloader instead of relocked and then run RUU. Flawless.

Thanks everyone. I tried revone with my phone running a 4.3 rom and it didnt work. I kept getting error 1 so I flashed ViperRom and went throught the steps again. I'm now s-off. Now I just need to learn how to flash the firmware and radios included in the 4.3 update. I'm used to my evo lte where i could just flash through twrp.

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

im on hboot 1.44 and used revone for s-off and then back to s-on. ive relocked my bootloader and on stock 4.1.2 rooted.
just want the tampered removed so i can get the speakers sorted out on warrenty.
cant send it with tampered displayed, they wont touch it.
would doing the over the air to 4,2,2 do this?
if its the recovery how do i flash stock recovery?

Upgrate will not help you to remove tampered tag.. are you on hboot 1.44 now?
And does ./revone -t work on it?

I'd like to return to 4.1.2, but I have updated radio and firmware. Can anyone give me a link to the old firmware? How can I downgrade my firmware, the same way I updated it?
Edit: I finally found the old firmware. You need to be s-off in order to flash it. No need to flash RUU and relock/unlock bootloader
It contains firmware 3.04.651.2 radio and modems and touch panel driver.
Go to fastboot and rename it to Firmware
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip Firmware
fastboot reboot-bootloader

First you will need to root, use Revone to gain S-Off with their tutorial in the Development Sections(All Steps Except For "-P" Command) and then you will be able to Downgrade Firmware through an RUU. If you are planning on staying stock then I suggest using Revone to also Lock the bootloader and remove tampered instead of having Relocked and Tampered on there. If not then just use Revone to remove tampered.

I am already s-off using revone. I was wondering if I could just flash the old firmware without flashing the whole ruu? After downgrading I will flash a custom rom. My question is where can I find the old firmware( without hboot in order not to loose s-off)?

You won't lose S-Off. RUUs do not mess with the Bootloaders Security Flag
Ok so i have searched but unable to find an answer to my question.
I want to downgrade my Hboot from 1.54 back to 1.44. I do have s-off. I s-offed when my hboot was on 1.44 using revone. My hboot was upgraded after doing a firmware update.
So i need to send my phone in for repairs (the infamous purple camera) and i want to downgrade so I can return to stock, remove "tampered" and relock.
As stated I am currently S-off and have read its possible to downgrade if you are s-off, just need to be pointed in the right direction

I wouldn't downgrade and s-on for warranty, it isn't necessary, they won't check and you will regret it because you will get back your phone s-on and upgraded to hboot 1.54, so non-s-offable for now. I did it too without any problems.
Just make you phone stock again (install a stock ruu is it is available), lock (not relock) your phone and remove tampered flag (running an ruu would remove it, if there is no ruu do it first because revone won't work without root on hboot 1.54)
BTW purple camera is just software whitebalance problem not a hardware problem
You just need to downgradethe firmware. It contains the hboot.
But as @godutch said, it's not necessary.

Ok cool, thanks guys, so I just need a flash a firmware zip containing 1.44 Hboot and im good to go?
Basically i just want to get rid of the tampered flag.
Iv done the 4.3 upgrades with supposedly fix the camera but its made no effect on mine :crying: so the only other option I have to try and get them to change the camera module.
Thanks again guys. Much appreciated. You will get a thanks each
you don't need to downgrade. h-boot 1.54 is normal and considerated STOCK for devices who made OTA update.
don't do stupid thing's
i removed tampared flag with revone -t

I had my phone repaired twice and they didn't say any thing about the boot loader being unlock. However, since that I have s-off and the phone needs to go to repair for the microphone not working and I wonder if I could either s-on and lock the boot loader with hboot 1.55? If you have any advice, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

not recommended, as far as i've seen, going from s-off to s-on (on 100% stock everything), after a few reboots, has a high chance of resulting in "tamper detected - rebooting" and the TAMPERED sign is back.
i was running custom rom but decided the blue haze on the camera wasn't doing it for me and turns out htc are able to repair it once i send in
I got to relocked s-on only showing no tampered or anything by flashing ruu
running latest sense rom and hboot 1.56 atm
need to get back to just [locked] showing s-on
this is frustrating me I need help
i unlocked this originally through htc if that matters
You will need s-off to reset the bootloader back to locked instead of re-locked

S-OFF the phone. Then, use the flash the Guru Bootloader Reset zip in TWRP/CWM. From there, you can set it to Locked. But, HBOOT 1.56 has a lot of problems when trying to S-OFF. Its a hit and miss chance. Try using Firewater to S-OFF

what is the best course of action I take?
im running latest android not 4.3 with an m7 not m8 and unrooted
i tried temprooting using firewater just to get s-off didn't work since i have newest android
can someone tell me what to do from here? flash 4.3? root again?!
Hi,
Here is the situation.. I have an HTC One..
the hboot is still on 1.44 with s-on.
I want to flash the latest firmware, which is only possible with s-off.. problem is that I'm running a 4.4.2 ROM and trying revone throws an error as the ROM doesn't match the hboot.
Is there anyway I can get s-off easily? or do I have to hunt down a 4.1.2 ROM and flash that before trying to update the firmware?
You can try firewater
I had the same situation, trying to S-OFF with HBOOT 1.44. I was able to get revone's method to work.

The only issue I ran into is at step 4
4. Prepare to gain S-OFF by running the command: ./revone -P

It wouldn't work without root. I used firewater's temp root and it worked perfectly. I did not need my bootloader unlocked or my device rooted.

firewater was the first one I tried cause I'm accustomed to using it with the 1.55 and 1.56 hboot..
didn't work on this run.. and revone keeps failing..
Thinking i'll relock the bootloader and flash the stock ruu with the latest firmware and see if that gets me up to hboot 1.56 and then unlock the bootloader and try firewater again..
any thoughts on this procedure before I try it?

I would try a 4.1.2 rom before you wipe your device with the RUU.
