[Guide] S-Off no PC using terminal. (Easy)

YouTube S-Off
How to S-Off HTC One without a PC.
As you can see from the video I am running ViperRom with stock kernel, from what I understand some kernels will cause S-Off to fail. Must be rooted to use this method. Also this will break Hot reboot, but doing an RUU will fix this but also wipe all your data.
Download Revone here http://revolutionary.io/revone OP is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582
Once its downloaded move to data/local/tmp
Then open terminal
Type the following
su (enter)
cd /data/local/tmp (enter)
chmod 755 revone.bin (enter) (some users may have to remove the .bin if thats you remove it from all of the lines)
./revone.bin -P (enter) (Capital P is needed)
Reboot
open terminal
cd /data/local/tmp (enter)
su (enter)
./revone.bin -s 0 -u
Reboot.
To remove "tampered"
open terminal
cd /data/local/tmp
su
./revone.bin -t

works great! now S-OFF.....

Worked for me too, however in one of the first steps to enter -p, I got an invalid command error. It worked once I made it a capital P instead of lower case. Just sharing in case it helps someone else.

Sweet! S-off in about 5 minutes.

Go to the play store and download Android Terminal Emulator. You also have to be rooted to do this.

Try the FX File Explorer app included with ViperROM, you need to browse system as root, and hit the lock in the upper right hand corner to mount your system as r/w. Remount system as read only by tapping the lock after you're finished copying the revone file to /data/local/tmp.

I see no lock on the top of Fx explorer

HELP!!Stock ROM on HTC One on Carrier!

Hi,
So I got a HTC One today, and I'm lovin it so far!
However, I want to have 4.2 ROM on my HTC One, but it's Three (3) Carrier branded!
I bought a code so I could use my own SIM from Tele2....However, when I boot op my HTC, I still get the Three Carrier Bootanimation.
But what I think is the worst, I can't get the 4.2 ROM on my HTC!
Is there any possibility that I can magicly get the official 4.2 ROM on my Three branded HTC One?
Do I need to unlock the bootloader or something?
PLEASE HELP!:crying:

yeah unlock your bootloader, flash a custom recovery and install the odexed ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224752
OR

First i suggest you get S-Off with revone.
adb shell ; cd /data/local/tmp ; ./revone -s 0 -t
Reboot in bootlader mode: adb reboot bootloader, then you type fastboot oem writecid 11111111
Now you can flash anu RUU or rom you want
Then copy superSU zip to the phone and flash in recovery http://download.chainfire.eu/339/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.41.zip.
Then make a backup in CWM recovery before you flash any custom rom.
Don`t forget to hit thanks button

I`am running that one too, an excellent rom which is fast and stable.
I urge you to get S-Off, you`ll regret it later if you don`t do it now on Hboot 1.44.000. You cannot downgrade the bootloader so you cannot install a RUU later if you should have to turn it in for repair.

Use any operating system you like, you only need adb.
1. Download revone (above) and push it to your device: adb push revone /data/local/tmp/
2. Open an adb shell and:
* cd /data/local/tmp
* chmod 755 revone-0.2.1
3. (optional) If your device is unlocked and rooted please switch to root using su.
4. Prepare to gain S-OFF by running the command: ./revone -P
4a. If revone reports success reboot the device and proceed to step 5)
4b. If revone reboots the device (we'll pretend this isn't an undiagnosed random crash) please wait 2 minutes then try again from step 2.
4c. If revone reports that you need to reboot and try again please reboot and try again from step 2.
5. Now that revone has successfully prepared your device for S-OFF please open another adb shell (as per step 2) and change to
the /data/local/tmp directory.
6. Instruct revone to grant you S-OFF and unlock status by running the command: ./revone-0.2.1 -s 0 -t
6a. Other optional command arguments:-
* -u - Unlock the device
* -l - Lock the device (as if it was never unlocked)
* -r - Relock the device (mark the device as relocked)
* -t - Reset the device's tamper flag.
7. Presuming revone reported success please reboot the device again, this time to the bootloader (adb reboot bootloader)
8. You should now observe your device is S-OFF (and the lock status changed if you invoked that option).
9. (optional) Re-run revone to remove TAMPERED from your HBOOT screen: ./revone -t
Type the red text in cmd.

You have no root sign which is # instead of $.
Do You have adb installed correct, is you serialnumber visible if you type adb devices.
Command: cd /data/local/tmp , don`t forget the space after cd.
Is usb debugging enabled in developer options on the phone?
Do you have fastboot in settings/energy disabled?

You don't need to RUU. From that tool click install HTC drivers. And see if that works if not unusual the HTC drivers and install universal naked htc one drivers (Google it you will find it).

this thread will let you unlock your bootloader without htcdev,or let you change your hboot watermark from relocked or locked back to stock.
originally,we used a zip file flashable in recovery. i have found it to work on gsm devices with 1.44 hboot and CW recovery. it did not work with twrp. if the following is too scary,feel free to test the zip files. that thread,info,and downloads can be found here. since not all recoverys are working,these values can be changed with simple adb commands.
advantages
-no hassle with htcdev,tokens,or unlock codes
-no submitting your phones personal info to htc
-the ability to get back to 100% stock without any visual traces or records of having been s off or unlocking your bootloader.
you do NOT need to downgrade your hboot. this simple adb command works without any scary hboot downgrades.
*you must be s off.
*you must have superuser installed(see this thread if you need help installing superuser. use the keep bootloader locked directions)
read this:
this will not work if your s on. its not a way to magically unlock
the usual disclaimers:
use this info at your own risk. if it melts your phone into a little pile of aluminum goo,its not my fault.

IF you are an advanced user with adb/fastboot set up and some basic knowlede of the cmd window,you can skip to #2
1)set up adb
-download this file
-install drivers: if you have htc sync installed,you should allready have drivers. if not,you can install htc sync,or install these modified htc drivers from revolutionary (driver mirror)
-unzip your miniadb_v1031.zip file. this is native funtionality in windows 7. you otherwise may need a utility such as "7-zip" to extract,or unzip it. place the unzipped folder onto the root of your C drive on your PC. root means the top level,not inside any folders. so just copy and paste,or drag and drop the folder onto C with everything else that is there. you may want to rename it to "miniadb_m7" since youll be putting some device specific files in here.
-open a command window. on windows 7,click the start bubble in the lower left and type "command" in the search box. xp i believe is similar or the same. doing this should open a small black command window.
-change to your miniadb_m7 directory. type the following at the prompt in your cmd window:
cd c:\miniadb_m7
your command promt should change to "c:miniadb_m7>" provided you: 1)unzipped the miniadb_v1031 zip file,and 2)put the folder on your c drive,and 3)entered the name of the folder correctly ("miniadb_m7" in this case)
-now make sure usb debugging is checked in developer options(you will need to turn it on first),and plug your phone into your PC with a usb cable
-make sure your phone is being recognized- type:
adb devices
if your drivers are installed correctly,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,then enter this command:
adb reboot bootloader
this should take your phone to the "fastboot" screen,wich is white with colored letters. this is one mode of your bootloaders interactive modes. at the top youll see fastboot devices as confirmation youre in fastboot.
now enter:
fastboot devices
again,this should return your phones serial number. you should hear the "found device" noises when you plug your phone in. if it starts installing drivers,wait for it to finish before typing the adb devices command.
if you get your serial number back,you can enter the following to boot back to the phones OS:
fastboot reboot
and now,youve installed adb/fastboot and tested youre phones drivers. if at either spot,you have trouble and dont get your serial number back,there is some sort of connection issue. use these steps to troubleshoot:
troubleshooting connectivity issues:
-try a reboot of the PC
-try different usb cables and ports
-dont use a usb hub
-dont use usb 3.0
-make sure nothing capable of comunicating with the phone is enabled and running. htc sync,pdanet,easy tether,and even itunes have all been known to cause issues.
-windows 8 has been known to have issues. try a windows 7 or older machine
failing the above,
-i use these drivers for fastboot and adb(donwload and run as admin): http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe (mirror)
failing that,try manually updating the drivers in the following manner:
-put the phone in fastboot mode(select fastboot from the hboot menu)
-open device manager on the PC
-plug in phone,watch for it to pop up in device manager.
-update drivers with device manager,pointing the wizard to the extracted
driver download folder from above
note that you can check the connectivity of the phone,and make sure drivers are working by in the following manner:
-open cmd window. change to directory containing adb/fastboot utilities
-adb with the phone in the booted OS,usb debug enabled,enter:
adb devices in a cmd window
-fastboot with phone in fastboot,enter:
fastboot devices in cmd window
in either case,a properly connected phone with working drivers installed should report back the phones serial number.

2)reset your "lock status flag"
to LOCK your bootloader,enter the following:

adb shell
su (if needed to get a # prompt)
echo -ne '\x00\x00\x00\x00' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796
(i would very strongly recomend you copy/paste this)
exit
(exit a second time if you need to to get back to a normal > prompt)
adb reboot bootloader
verify you are now locked
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
to UNLOCK your bootloader,enter the following:
adb devices
adb shell
su (if needed to get a # prompt)
echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796
(i would very strongly recomend you copy/paste this)
exit
(exit a second time if you need to to get back to a normal > prompt)
adb reboot bootloader
verify you are now unlocked
*i have tested this on my gsm htc one. if someone wants to test on vzw,ill add you to the credits

Can not find the way to root. I'm s-off, I have android 4.3 and I have hboot 1.44. To flash the recovery by fastboot tells me failed: not allowed.

you might be in hboot,not fastboot,or are making some other error.

lol,as youve found,nothing to wory about. locking and unlocking is as easy as setting the flag to the proper values,so the rumrunner tool prolly locked the bootloader in the process.
you can leave it locked,youll just have to install recoveries a bit differently than youre used to,no big deal. if you do want to unlock just use this thread

Hi anyone tried this on a RELOCKED bootloader, or if know it works?
to UNLOCK your bootloader,enter the following:
adb devices
adb shell
su (if needed to get a # prompt)
echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796
(i would very strongly recomend you copy/paste this)
exit
(exit a second time if you need to to get back to a normal > prompt)

Yes. It works fine on a relocked bootlloader to lock or unlock

It works perfectly and does not reset your phone as htcdev does. Quick & painless.

Firewater does NOT Open or Execute.

Heya Guys and Bros,
I got a Sprint HTC One and im Using it here in Germany, since i have SIM unlocked it.
Problem is im at the Newest Firmware, Rooted and Bootloader unlocked, but i cant gain S Off.
I did try Firewater and USB Debugging is on, Device has No Plattern lock, or any lock at all.
When I gain SU permissions in ADB it asks for them on my device. I acceot them and after that i copy paste the two lines (i think simething with Chmod or so) but nothing Happens. I did try everything but firewater doesent even shows up in The Terminal.
What to do bros?
Should i try it with an terminal emulator on The Device?
Thanks in advance

are you running it from your computer? are you booted into android or bootloader, it runs from booted into android.
don't use terminal emulator

I've made an attempt. Software info:
TWRP v2.7.1.1
SuperSU v2.02
Software Version: 5.03.651.3 (Using this ROM with many system apps removed)
"adb.exe" is in my Windows environment path and "firewater" is located in the "C:\m7root" directory. ADB Shell has automatic granted access in SuperSU.
Console Text:

I will probably re-lock my bootloader and try again with the 1.29.651.7 RUU.

After the '/data/local/tmp/firewater' command, the console should print around 25 blank lines and then print a warning prompt that states that the authors of the software disclaim all liability if something breaks as the result of running their software.

Tried it again just a second ago
, nothing happens. Or must i press 25 times enter?

Have you updated your android sdk lately?

Yep i did. Still everything works but firewater does not execute
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Free mobile app

i was having same issues fought with it for days then something told me well maybe the firewater file was corrupted to delete it and re download so thats what i did and it worked so maybe some of you are having the same issue so re download it btw i used the weak sauce method but on an already rooted and unlocked device and without the weaksauce app .... and instead of adb wait-for-device push firewater /data/local/tmp i place firewater file on my desktop and used this command instead adb wait-for-device push desktop/firewater /data/local/tmp

Thanks Mate, I will try that as soon asim Home Tomorrow evening.
