[Q] Can't unlock HTC One GPE that is RELOCKED

I bough a GPE HTC One from the Play store. I used HTC Dev to unlock it, had enjoyed custom roms and recoveries. I wanted to learn how to revert back to stock so before the 4.4 OTA update I relocked the bootloader and restored a stock recovery (not my own original).
I received the 4.4 OTA update yesterday and I attempted to unlock the bootloader once more. I used the original bin file and went through the steps to do it again but am met with the same results. I can at times get a successful unlock command in terminal, but not the screen that is supposed to appear and unlock the device.
I've seen some threads that sort of have the same problem but none that have resolutions that work for me. I've attempted flashing RUU's but am always met with signature verification failures. I've tried fastboot oem unlock but that doesn't work either.
Hoping someone might have an idea.

Hopefully someone with actual knowledge will come to help you, but why don't you try to S-off? that will give you more solution options.

From what I've been able to determine I'm unable to achieve S-OFF with HBOOT 1.54, or else I definitely would.

There are no RUU for GPE. The conversion RUU is not properly signed and was made from a system dump.
The GPE should be unlockable without a token or using htc dev.
fastboot oem unlock
what do you get?
You can't S-OFF on the GPE rom. you would have to flash a sense rom and then use rumrunner. You can't flash a different rom without unlocking and flashing a custom recovery...

That's old information. There has been an S-Off exploit for 1.54 for over a month. I've done it on a GPE just like yours. Search for Rumrunner S-Off.

This is wrong. You CAN S-OFF a GPE. Although you need root access or unlocked bootloader.
Do you have root?
Rumrunner S-Off http://rumrunner.us/

No root, sadly. And probably can't get it with locked bootloader and s-on either.

interesting.
Last night just for fun I relocked the bootloader on my GPE converted AT&T one. I then attempted to unlock using fastboot oem unlock and got the exact same results. I suspected it had to do with my phone being converted instead of legit GPE and also having a custom splash screen.
I'm s-off so I just unlocked using a a few quick commands while booted.
Try re-flashing the firmware.zip from the 4.4 ota for good measure. that will re-write your hboot and recovery and other firmwares.

Well the firmware flash worked just fine. But then I tried flashboot oem unlock and I got the same error as documented earlier. I even tried the HTCdev method again, got a successful result but no unlock screen.
So I'm still stuck on relocked. But I'm encouraged that your file was able to flash with no error. Do you think there might be more files I could attempt to flash in that manner that could help?

Hi @ipfreelytech
If fastboot oem unlock didn't work for you, how did you unlock the bootloader?

When I first got my phone I unlocked via that HTCdev method by betting the unlock_code.bin file and flashing it. I wasn't aware until today that there was a different method for GPE that didn't require that. The problem now is that the oem unlock doesn't work, and HTCdev method says it works but doesn't complete.

Yeah this a new issue that we are seeing being reported more and more after 4.4 GPE update.. Unfortuantely no fix yet.

OK, understood. What do you suggest I keep an eye out for on the forums?
A new S-OFF method for 1.54 with a locked bootloader...a new firmware update where it might work again...or updated drivers for the hardware/adb? Appreciate your input.

This method that you used to unlock and "relocked" phone, is there any way to do it with S-On? I had previously rooted, and am now stuck, as the others (I have been posting on other threads).
I'm wondering, hoping that there is line code like this one that would allow for us to recover our phones....

doubtful. s-off is required because your modifying a "black box" partition. The solutions used to gain s-off in the first place require using an exploit to write to that partition. What i posted is just directly modifying it using dd.

Hi I'm replying to you on this original thread instead of starting a new one. I received the 4.4.2 OTA update this morning and I still cannot unlock bootloader, getting the same error messages as documented earlier in this thread.
I am checking to see if you've heard of any success stories for people on a stock GPE HTC One (s-on, relocked, no root) getting their bootloader to unlock after 4.4 or 4.4.2. I've checked the forums regularly but most other people seem to have root, s-off, or customer recovery which I have neither of.

Im getting this same issue after updating to 4.4.2 after i got my phone back from repair. It is completely stock now and when i try to unlock the phone it wont show the screen that asks me if im sure i want to unlock my phone, which is the last step on the htcdev site.
Im thinking its a kitkat issue.

You need to be S-offed and boot loader should be unlocked in order to flash ruu

No, S-OFF is not compulsory if the HBOOT version of the phone matches the RUU version. Bootloader HAS TO BE LOCKED/RELOCKED

Not really, With S-ON you can flash signed ruu of same or higher version with bootloader LOCKED or RE-LOCKED.
S-OFF is only needed to flash unsigned RUU or for downgrading, and with S-OFF you can flash a RUU with a locked/relocked or unlocked bootloader.

DId you MD5 check the ruu before flashing? error 152 is for ''image error'' and the four triangles with exclamation marks means the ruu did not flash completely.
Edit: So you were on 4.19.401.11 before flashing 4.19.401.9 ? You can't downgrade with S-ON

DId you MD5 check the ruu before flashing? error 152 is for ''image error'' and the four triangles with exclamation marks means the ruu did not flash completely.
no i've downloaded this ruu from htc1guru 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

The issue was that before flashing the RUU, the phone firmware was higher than the RUU firmware. The phone was 4.19.401.11 while the RUU is 4.19.401.9. S-OFF is required to flash a lower firmware
Your solution:
1) Unlock bootloader
2) Flash TWRP 2.6.3.3
3) adb sideload ARHD
4) S-OFF using Firewater
5) Then relock/lock the bootloader. Remove TAMPERED if you want. Then flash the RUU
(you can set the bootloader to LOCKED and remove the TAMPERED flag if S-OFF)

OP is stuck in ruu mode after an incomplete ruu flash from 4.19.401.11 to 4.19.401.9. S-ON, bootloader relocked (not able to unlock again). THe only option in bootloader is RUU in orange.

Yes, @nkk71 might have an idea. Im just sharing what I know- If you cannot get into fastboot also, you really have a serious problem. Your only option (not 100% sure) is an RUU based on 4.19.401.11, which doesn't currently exist. If there is another solution, I don't know. But I think you will have to wait for an RUU based on your version.

That screenshot does not look nice!
you're firmware is in limbo... from the looks of it, you did the first flash, but didn't do the second flash.
So first make sure the RUU you have is not corrupt, the MD5 should be 9AD4111CE86981E3DFFCCE6D9EE80551
Second, do you still have a custom recovery installed, or a rooted ROM?

I've stock recovery , i'm sure
Before i've a stock rom by grureset
I can use ruu 4.19.401.9? Or can i flash rom.zip with fastboot?
Inviato dal mio GT-N8000 usando XDA Premium HD app

Finally i've found a solution!!!!
i've downloaded the ota 4.19.401.11 extract firmware.zip
flash it with fastboot 2 times and now i can access to bootloader!!
Thanks for support

Sprint HTC One S-OFF/sim ulock on HBOOT 1.57 OS 5.03.651.3

Hello everyone,
I was trying diiferent Roms and kernels for many days, but no luck with s-off and sim unlock till today (5 days passed). I hope my gide will help you with your phone as well.
I have Sprint HTC One M7 HBOOT 1.57, OS 5.03.651.3.
1) Unlock bootloader
2) Flash "recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-m7spr" or "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.2-m7wls.img"
3) Install Super user
4) Flash "m7wls_Stock_Rooted_5.03.651.3_DeOdex_Full" Rom using recovery
5) Flash kernel "ElementalX-sprint-m7-13.1"
6) Use "Firewater", instraction 1 worked for me link: http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/. Now you must be S-Off
7) Downgared to Hboot 1.44. This one worked for me "hboot_hexed"
8) Install Sprint_HTC_One_m7wls_1.29.651.10_RUU
9) Flash againe "recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.8-m7spr" or "openrecovery-twrp-2.8.0.2-m7wls.img"
10) Install Super user
11) Follow all steps in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2386703 and you are done.
Thank you.

thanks for sharing the steps, i just got s-off tonight on hboot 1.57 by htc dev unlocking, flashinging twrp recovery which installed super su root. Firewater didn't work at that point, so i flashed CM11 nightly and then firewater s-off worked when "opening bottle 1".
I then installed the firewater hboot, but i'm not sure why is there an advantage to downgrading to an older hboot version? is it just so you can potentially install older RUUs?

it's work for me ) ) thanks your solultion ! very good

so now my HTC one camera not work ) maybe because downgare softwave ... everyone help me ! thanks

Hey, do you have a link to the rom you flashed in step 4? I downloaded this but they said you need s-off to make it happen.
UPDATE: Was able to flash the rom via recovery and flash elementX kernel, the same one you mentioned. After getting to the firewater step I get this error after the first chug:
Kernel contains HTC anti-firewater patch!

UPDATE 2: Followed to Step 5, tried firewater and it failed. Tried SIM Unlock and it failed. Replaced HtcOMADM file and tried S-off via firewater and it failed. Tried SIM Unlock and it did everything fine!
Now I just have to find a SIM that works.

I cannot get this to work for me. :\
I get to Android OS, Unlock the lock screen, get a white screen with green HTC letters and then phone reboots.

[Q] Can't use my HTC phone, no system

Hey, I was stupid and missed up my phone. I wanted to update my phone, but because It was rooded I wasn't able to do it. So I decided to begin from start. So I downgraded my Hboot to 1.44 and also stupid to set s-on again. But then I could not install the stock rom 1.29.651.10. So I decided to try a custom rom. So I would be able to set s-off again. But non of them worked. I think that the old Hboot 1.44 is why the roms didn't work. But I can't change my Hboot before my device is s-off.
I'm able to use adb sideload and twrp recovery
Bootloader information
Tampered
Unlocked
M7_WLS PTV SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.44.0000
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
eMMC-boot
May 8 2013.16:30:08:-1
Does any one have any suggestions ?

If I remember right, the older s-off techniques like rumrunner should still work with that hboot. I'd look into those first.

I've have already tried rumrunner, but it didn't work for me. I was able to get Viberone 8 to work, but it was very slow. Tried to get s-off but did't work with the Viberone rom. So now i'm trying another one to see if it will allow me to get the phone s-off. But thx for your respond

1.29.401.12. is not a Sprint rom.

While booted to fastbootusb open a cmd window (from your platform tools folder) and type:
Code:
fastboot getvar all
Then copy and paste the results here...make sure you remove your IMEI from the results.

Thx it worked for me. First I replaced the TWRP recovery with the stock recovery 1.29.651.10. After that I relocked my bootloader "fastboot oem lock" and the device rebooted. I used the 1.29.651.10 RUU exe. and it worked. So thank you, have a nice day

[Q] HELP needed, HTC One Soft Bricked and RUU's wont work

hello guys.
i had an htc one m7 ul for a while and all was great until the network stopped working.
so i decided to flash an RUU exe for my device which is HTC___J15
the process did not finish and it gave the error "failed zip" on the fastboot screen.
i rebooted the phone and it went back to the fastboot screen and it never got back in the system, this was two days ago.
yesterday i tried to flash the htc___j15 ruu zip file and it gave me the signature verification failed error.
it says tampered and reclocked *security warning* and my hboot version is 1.61 and os-7.19.401.51
after some reaserch im discovering it says s-on .
is there any way to put it to s-off or downgrade the hboot from 1.61
tried revone,rumrunner and all those did not work

If your version main is 7.19.401.51 then the only RUU you can flash is the 7.19.401.51 version. You don't need S-OFF to flash this RUU and fyi, S-OFF can only be acheived using the Sunshine S-OFF exploit on this hboot version. Hboot can only be downgraded when already S-OFF.
If you need more help, pleas post the output of "fastboot getvar all" with your next post (hide imei/serial)
The 7.19.401.51 RUU can be found here at post #2 and instruction how to flash at post #1.

At first you need a running system cause sunshine is an app based service. After that you can download the latest sunshine app and install it, then the app will test your device if it is possible to make it s-off. If it can, in the second step you have to buy a license for your device within sunshine (about 20€/25$). After sucessfully payment your device will reboot and sunshine will set it to s-off.(The license is bind to your device and you can use it on this device as often as you want, for other devices you need to buy another license)

If after flashing the RUU your problem isn't fixed, it's probably an hardware problem.
