I have searched, tried rumrunner, revone, and to no avail. I cannot get my S-off. I am running HTC Stock with Goodies, 4.3 with 5.5 Sense ROM. I read all over people with the HTC One for Sprint have gotten s-off but there is no definitive procedure that works.
Can someone please point me in the right direction because I am going in 20 right now.
Thanks!

Check your firmware version. If yiu are on 1.44 you have to s-off with revone, if you are on 1.55 you have to use rumrunner. It definitely works, you have done smth wrong

Try the Moonshine S-Off. It worked good for me.

Can someone please finally find a way to S-OFF the HTC ONE?
I've tried revone and moonshine and nothing is working.
I'm currently running Android revolution 40.3, TWRP 2.6.3.3, Hboot 1.54

You may need to search VERY hard for something called rumrunner.

hboot 1.54 = firmware 2.xx = ROM based on 4.2
40.3 is already 4.4 and 31.6 is 4.3, it MAY work and maybe it won't.
and "the last part doesn't work" isn't very specific, is it?
Not trying to be an a**, but saying things like "i'm on latest version" doesnt really say much.
Versions usually have numbers for a reason.

Ok, as far as i know not sure if you can s-off while on kitkat..so for the sake of s-offing, flash ARHD 31.6 (ive used this to s-off my device twice on hboot 1.55 and it works) it should work for you too. and for revone and moonshine won't do since you need to use rumrunner for hboots 1.54 and 1.55
Now, im assuming you already have adb set up and know how to use adb and fastboot commands, so go on n check out this thread and then go to www.rumrunner.us and download the universal version 0.5.0 and remember to follow all the directions (most importantly disabling all firewall/antivirus, as this is what plagues most people). and then you should have s-off
thank you, I've tried this again and this time it worked!
You can close this post
I'm on ARHD 70.00 and am trying to achieve S-Off with no luck. I've tried both revone (which used to work before I updated) and Firewater (which I've never tried before). I'm currently downloading rumrunner to see if that will work.
Has anyone had any success with S-Offing 1.57? I can post a getvar if needed.
Try firewater on arhd 53.0 (or any sense 5.5 rom) like i did. It worked like a charm.

I tried it, but no dice. I think it's because downgrading the ROM doesn't downgrade the hboot. Thanks for the help anyways, though
I think Firewater is the only one that could work with that version. What's the error message?

I've searched far and wide and tried and tried but cannot get the s-off on my new -to-me HTC one m7 for at&t. I have tried firewater which has given me various results from the "whoops" to opening bottles and whatnot then saying it failed. I have also tried rumrunner. I am currently running insert coin 4.4 with sense 6 and sunshine says I am not compatable. is there any way to maybe downgrade my hboot to 1.55 or something as that seems to be the problem to me. or is there a ROM that runs a Google style android and will work with a rooted s-on device? Thanks

Downgrading hboot require s-off so no you can not downgrade hboot to achieve s-off. If you have tried all the suggested rom/kernel combinations known to work and sunshine is also not working, you might want to try a java card s-off service like proposed at http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/, not sure if it still working on 1.57 hboot, better to ask them before.

You must be on stock Rom-kernel if you want SunShine to work. If you don't have a nandroid backup of your stock Rom then you can install Maximus HD (or a stock Rom) as its closest to stock and then you can come back to your preferred Rom.
hello dear friends, maybe someone can lead me in the right direction here. I have a sprint Htc One m8 Harman Kardon with badboyz 4.4.2 rom installed. I have tried rumrunner S-off and Firewater S-off to no avail. I then read about Sunshine S-off and was ok with parting with $25- to have my phone unlocked but when I run the compatibility test in sunshine it says that my htc isnt supported! My htc M8 currently has the BadBoyz rom in it, I dont have a nandroid backup to get back to s tock and i havent been able to find a stock rom that i can flash in TWRP. I have only found RUUs, but to use RUUs you have to have s-off so I really dont know what else to try at this point.... any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
RUU's do not require s-off.

sorry about that....could you please tell me which is the right RUU to use in my case then? thanks!
I had some similar issues in the past, try flashing thoughtlesskyle's stock rom. It may show compatability then. Hope this helps.
U need to be running a stock Rom.

Thanks for your help, after flashing a stick Rom sunshine worked just fine and I'm now unlocked
I currently have my M7 unlocked and rooted, now fancy a try at getting s-off for my M7.
I am currently running the latest Insertcoin rom with the default kernel that comes with it. I've currently tried Rumrunner and Revone that come with the Tookkit from Squabbi but both fail. I am assuming this is because 1.57 is a tricky one to gain s-off.
Anyone had any luck with this verson and running Insertcoin?
Thank you.

With that hboot your best free chance of S-OFF is firewater. I don't know about that combination but you can search the thread and see if someone has made it. It seems each phone is different and what works for one doesn't work for another. If you get the "whelps this sucks..." message then you will need to use sunshine but it cost $25.
Ok, tried the Firewater method, first bottle chugs then I am informed my kernel contains an anti firewater patch. So, I googled around and it shows Elemental as being firewater friendly. I flashed this kernel, tried Firewater and I get the same results.
I am running the latest ARHD and obviously now the Elemental kernel.
Thanks.

use an older rom + bulletproof
you can also check here for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2632351
if you are already on firmware 6.xx, then most likely firewater will fail anyway (even without giving you the "whelp this sucks" message)
Older rom, as in perhaps a Jellybean rom? Sense or aosp?
Yep, on a 6.09 build number.
Thanks.
I tried many different ways to get s-off on HBoot 1.57. All failed.
Only option working is SunShine, which costs me USD$25.
But it is surely fast and effective.
Check your emmc chipset. If it begins with 9001, you won't be able to s-off without Sunshine - if it's any other you should be fine. I managed to s-off with OnePlus One CyanogenMod 11S rom.
