[Q] Can´t get S-OFF

Hello
i have htc one m7_u hboot 1.44 s-on rooted, and software version 3.62.401.1
I tried rumrunner but i gives me an error related to adb. Then tried revone, but in terminal it says revone failed error 1
Any ideas? i want to flash 4.4.2 roms
thanks

You need to go back to install older 4.1 rom that is compatible with 1.44. Right now you have a mismatch between HBOOT and ROM version.

[Q] S-OFF hboot 1.44 revone error=1

Im having a pretty tough time with revone and hboot 1.44. I'm almost sure my problem is because su is not a recognized command, though I am rooted. I've tried following guides for the past 2 hours... can anyone offer a solution?

Can I share his luck and get a PM too? I have been trying the whole day and nothing.
./revone -s 0 -u goes successfully. However, the -P does not and gives me an error 1.
I tried su ./revone -P just in case and still nothing.

Thanks a lot. I was just reading that one now. I have tried everything in order to sim unlock this device before I go to the caribbean. S-Off is required and is the only step missing out of all I have done.
Thanks again for the quick and helpful response.

[Q] Ran RUU - Now have S-OFF w\Relocked Bootloader

Would appreciate some advice before I move forward ....
I was running ViperOne 4.2.0 happily, albeit on a very old firmware version.
However on trying to flash a current firmware it failed with "FAILED (status read failed (too many links))" which left me stuck with the silver HTC on a black screen with the 4 warning triangles in each corner.
I then downloaded and flashed this: "RUU M7 UL JB 50 HTC Europe 1.28.401.7 Radio 4A.13.3231.27 10.31.1131.05 Release 310878 Signed" which got me back up and running ......

So you've done an RUU , and it got stuck in the RUU screen?
Try "fastboot oem restart*
Then boot intro bootloader.
Download CMW/TWRP
then flash the recovery
Turn Adb-sideload on in recovery, use adb sideload to install ViperRom again.

No, the RUU finshed fine and it rebooted back into the stock ROM with stock recovery, however when I try to flash recovery (twrp 2.6.3.3) it fails with:
"FAILED (remote: not allowed)"
Is this due to the bootloader being "Relocked"? If so, any idea how to Unlock it again .... I used HTC Dev to initially unlock it way back when and rumrunners to get S-OFF
Thanks for the help!

You can do what nkk71 has suggested or unlock using htcdev by generating a new unlock key.

When you run an RUU, i assume your bootloader has been locked, so if RUU is succesfull, your bootloader is currently locked/relocked.
Go to the HTC dev email you´ve received with the Unlock_code.bin . but this in your folder with adb & fastboot. Go into fastboot mode, and execute : ¨fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin¨
If you havn´t got this email anymore, go to the htcdev website and request your unlock code again as you did unlocking.
Then install TWRP/CMW, flash youŕe preffered rom
EDIT: Just read the other posts, use revone as
nkk71 suggested. Otherwise read up on the revone thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582

As suggested, I used my original HTC Dev token to successfully unlock the bootloader from it's "Relocked" state.
Then I was able to flash TWRP and reflash ViperOne ... So I'm back to where I started from thankfully!
The only problem I'm having is getting the right PC drivers installed to connect the phone to transfer files ...... That's going to have to wait until tomorrow now as it's late here!
Thanks to everyone for the help and advice

Do you have a working rom on the phone, If not the OTA is useless as its just that,( an update to the rom ) and not the full rom.
You need to download the RUU for your phone.
If you do have a working rom then you need to flash the stock recovery for your rom version and relock your bootloader,( your S-On ) to install the update.

Btw, your phone firmware is currently 4.20.708.10 (from your fastboot getvar all) so you can't use a 2.24.708.4 ruu because its a downgrade and you must have s-off do downgrade.

like i said above (post 13), you can't use this ruu because its a downgrade. S-OFF is required to downgrade so any RUU below your version (4.20.708.10) will not work. So trying to flash them = wasting your time.

this is a rom and you have to install it from custom recovery, no need to relock bootloader.
adb push or sideload it to your sdcard, then install it from twrp

[Q] Choosing RUU and returning to stock

Hello Everyone,
I have read multiple guides from here and want to emphasize what a great community this place seems to be!
I am a proud owner of an HTC One M7 with Miui installed.
I have CWM Recovery installed and am S-ON.
I have the tint problem of the camera and intend to bring it to the seller for a repair. This requires me to go back to the stock HTC Sense ROM.

I don't know how to choose the correct RUU. The only thing which comes close to what I have in terms of software version is this:
RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_HTC_Europe_4.19.401.9_R_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe
Should I use it?
Also, most of the guides start with the assumption that your phone is S-OFF (not really sure what that means exactly, but that's a different conversation).
Does that mean I can skip the steps for getting it back to S-ON from those guides and continue onward or I should get it first to S-OFF, do whatever needs to be done and then get it back to S-ON and continue with the RUU?
Thanks a lot, guys!
Best,
Wisher

That RUU will work for you, but it won't do any good for reinstating your warranty. You need to be s-off to return to 100% stock.
As you will need to set the bootloader back to ***LOCKED*** which requires s-off. With s-on the best you will get is ***RELOCKED*** and that's a sure sign the device was tampered with.

RUU_M7_UL_K44_SENSE55_MR_HTC_Europe_4.19.401.9_R_Radio_4A.23.3263.28_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353069_signed_2-1.exe
Should I use it?
Thanks a lot, guys!
Best,
Wisher

That RUU will work for you, but it won't do any good for reinstating your warranty. You need to be s-off to return to 100% stock.

this ruu won't work for you it's version is low you need same or higher version
Stock Reset Rom can help you but not 100%
S Off is only option

Good catch I didn't spot he was on .11 not .9 :good:

Thanks for your replies.
So how do I go about getting a newer RUU?
I am currently trying to get S-OFF with rumrunner... hopefully it will work.
If I get it to be S-OFF, what should I do from that point on?

The unbranded EU Lollipop RUU (in ZIP form) is here:

If you use that ruu you won't be able to get s-off, there is no working method to s-off hboot 1.60. You'd be better off finding a stock Rom to flash and get s-off with rumrunner. Once you update past hboot 1.57 you will have to pay $25 for sunshine to s-off and as I mentioned if you go to hboot 1.60 you will ha e to wait for a new exploit that will work with that version. No doubt that will also be an updated version of Sunshine

What's wrong with paying for S-OFF? Gotta show the Devs some love

So the current option is to find a stock 401.11 ROM?
Any ideas where to look for one?
I have found the original/stock OTA zip file for the 401.11 update from an article by Android Revolution HD.
Also the 401.11 stock firmware zip from the android revolution collection.
(sorry, I'm too new of a user and can't post the actual links but they can be found by googling "4.19.401.11 ruu" and seeing the android revolution blogspot article)
Am I correct in thinking that I should do the following:
1. Flash with this firmware (since it is the stock one).
2. Install the OTA zip with fastboot (I think there is a tutorial on how to do this). Will this work the same as installing a RUU?
3. Run rumrunner while still on hboot 1.56
4. Go to S-OFF
5. Return everything to stock
6. Apply latest OTA (lolipop etc.)
7. Pay the price if I want to have S-OFF later.
Best,
Wisher

No RUU, flash this inside TWRP recovery just like you would with a custom rom, only this will make your phone stock.

you cant manually flash OTA's whilst s-on, also you shouldnt need to flash firmware that you are already on.

Ok, I will be flashing with this guru reset file.
Then I should go S-OFF and follow the guide to get everything back to stock (no **UNLOCKED**, no TAMPERED, etc.).
Correct?

get s-off as long as you can, do not accept any updates.
after s-off you will need to flash HBOOT 1.44 and a very early RUU, then get rid of the flags and s-on before updating.
removing the flags and then going s-on with anything higher than HBOOT 1.54 and the flags come back on the next reboot.

Important Thanks

Got the following with rumrunner:
ERROR: looks like device is not rooted AND lacks an unsecure kernel. su or FU!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
However I can do "adb shell" and then "su" brings me to be a super user.
What is different to what the situation was when I was with MIUI is that now when I type "adb shell" I am not automatically root (don't have # but $ at the console). When I do "su", the $ changes to #, which basically means that I am root.
I guess rumrunner has a requirement that you are root by default when logging via adb shell.
Any idea on a fix?

There's nothing wrong with paying for s-off. I have purchased Sunshine myself when necessary, and made regular donations to other devs. but it's only fair to inform people of there options before you land them with a $25 solution not everyone has money to spare for that sort of thing. :good:

You should try rumrunner with the Rom @Seanie280672 posted to gain s-off. Not guaranteed to work as HTC started patching firmware at this point but if you need 100% stock it's your best chance to s-off without Sunshine.
If rumrunner won't work Sunshine is still cheaper than paying for the repair, and when you get your device back you can use Sunshine again for free, as long as it is the same device and not a replacement :good:

Did you select the option to install root when you flashed the rom?

Thanks for the info.
I did select to have the phone rooter.
However, I remembered that I forgot to switch fastboot off while testing rumrunner with the ROM from @Seanie280672.
I have now disabled this and am trying again. If it doesn't work, will reinstall the ROM again with CWM and *make sure* to have super user privileges (although I do have the Superuser app installed now just after flashing.)
I also remember that I had some super user issues when I was trying to install MIUI and had to install some zip via CWM. I still have that zip so will try with it.
Again, thank you VERY VERY much for helping me out!
Best,
Wisher

your better off using TWRP recovery to flash the rom, there should be an option to root during the installer, but if there isnt then TWRP will ask you if you would like to root before leaving recovery.

Did it via CWM, made sure to select to root the phone. Still, I can do "su" when in the phone shell via adb, but it won't be directly with root access after "adb shell".
Now will try with TWRP (since installing the guru reset rom also resets the recovery to the HTC stock) and report back.
Good thing is I still have the MIUI backed up to use with CWM.
I will write soon.
