Hi all,
I am a noob so please excuse my ignorance.
I have a UK Vodafone HTC One and want to convert it to a Google Play edition. I've read a few guides that require me to install moonshine but I'm not having much luck.
Has anyone managed to do it yet?
Can someone help me please?
thanks

I sent the request to add the 2.15.970.1 firmware, not realising it needed to be unlocked first, but a bg thankyou to the dev anyway.
After i researched a bit I realised that to simply flash cusom roms s-off is unnecessary and a simple unlock is good enough.
Anyway i found this great guide htcsoku.info/htcsokudev-news/au-m7-215to105-downgrade/ on how to downgrade then s-off or unlock with revone.
I managed to unlock the sim by following the guide as as far as gaining root shell then used this guide htcsoku.info/htcsokudev-news/au-m7-device-sim-unlock/ to simply unock the sim without touching anything els.
I then used theguid to downgrade and unlock anotherday, although it may be possible to follow the guide as far as gaining root then trying revone without downgrading,
Sorry this is my first so xda prevented me from attaching actual links, hope this helps some people.

Thanks a lot dude!
__________________________________________________________________________________
Thanks also "kirkintokyo" for the sim unlock link.. this will help a lot too. highly appreciated dude!
Im also having a very hard time with something.....
I really hope somebody here can help me. I'm desperate and have tried everything. I purchased my AU HTC J One and it had 4.1.2 (1.07.970.4) on it. I was anxious to start playing around with it so I followed an instruction on how to install TWRP. So I unlocked , Installed TWRP, then rooted. Everything was great until an OTA came out. I wanted to update but found out very quickly that without stock recovery I cannot do OTA. Well here is the real problem. I do not have the stock recovery any more and cannot find it. Another user gave me what he though was the stock recovery, I flashed it and then tried thee OTA. All I get is a picture of the phone with a big red triangle with an exclamation point. If I hold up volume and hit power I can see where it started the update and immediately aborted. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would really like to update to system 4.2.2 and hopefully in the future to 4.3 , 4.4 but as it stand now Im stuck with 4.1.2... I know there are some smart guys out there that could give me a hand with this. PLEASE>>>>

I tried using HTC dev site to unlock bootloader but it failed
Error Code: 170.
Error Reason: CID Not Allowed.
You have to s-off and get super cid before you can unlock the boot loader
Your software version should allow you follow this guide
Following that you can try the same steps I did, but well most likely need a different version of recovery, the non 4.2.2 version

How'd your do this? this is the first report I've seen of successfully getting s-off on 1.56. This gives me hope.
What method and how many attempts did you make? Mac or Windows?

I tried all kinds of methods best known to me but none worked while I was on kitkat version 4.06.651.4) using firewater.so this is exactly what I did,
I upgraded to software version 4.06.651.9 (kit kat) before firewater actually worked.So if you really want to achieve s-off using firewater,then you have to upgrade to the latest version number of kitkat.
1.Upgrade to the latest version of kitkat(4.06.651.9)
2.Unlock boot using htcdev.
3.Install custom recovery and superSU to get root access.
4.use firewater to achieve s-off.
Infact firewater worked the first time I tried after installing the latest software(4.06.651.9)
So I advice you to install the latest software and keep your eyes on the phone to grant super user access.
hope this helps.
Hi there, sorry for my first post being so needy...
I am trying to root my HTC J One and it seems that I first need to S-OFF the device. I'm trying to use Rumrunner as my bootloader is at 1.54 unfortunately...but I get the error "looks like device is not rooted AND lacks an unsecure kernel. su or FU!!"
I'm using the HTC Universal version of rumrunner as there doesn't seem to be a device specific version for the HTC J One.
I've uninstalled HTC Sync Manager and uninstalled my virus scanning software and turned off my firewall. Anyone have any suggestions on where to go next? Thank you for your help!

Firstly, only the Verizon HTC One needs to be S-OFF'ed prior to root. All other models need to be bootloader unlocked and rooted to get S-OFF.

It seems as mentioned here that Revone / Rumrunner are needed to unlock the bootloader, but neither seem to be working (revone doesn't work as my bootloader is version 1.54, I did try it anyway though...and rumrunner gives me the error mentioned above...
Or is all of this unnecessary to root it? I kind of hope it is!

Hi everyone! I've been searching this forum whole day about 8 hours, and couldn't find any tool that would S-Off 1.57. Even latest Firewater doesn't help.... Any suggestions? Or is it possible to downgrade from 1.57 to lower? Thanks in advance.

downgrading hboot require s-off so no, its not possible.
firewater is the only tool that could s-off your phone. have you tried firewater + arhd 31.6? If you get the "whelp" message when trying to s-off there is nothing to do.
last possibility is to s-off the phone via a java card like they are doing at fonefunshop.com
No, I'm on 4.3 Google Play Edition, I had problems with ADB Authorization, I didn't get pop-up message when I connected the phone in debugging, so I had to install that rom, now everything works fine, but I want 4.4 Google Play Edition, so I heard it needs S-Off .. How do you think , should I wait for for 1.57 support or change rom and try this? This HTC Bloatware really annoys me ..
just try a 4.4 rom from the development section. you don't need S-off, just unlock the bootloader, install recovery, and flash new roms.

I am using a M7_UL running stock 4.4.2 with hboot 1.57 and I followed the steps mentioned and managed to get S-OFF.
Edit: realised that you were the one who shared in the other thread. So thanks for sharing man!
Yea I found it but couldn't test it I wasn't at home, will try later. So it is possible ) I want to convert my M7 into Google Edition, so I hope that helps me also.
