Guys, I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I was trying to flash an RUU to downgrade but unfortunately it gave me an error code, so now I'm stuck at the fastboot which is RELOCKED and S-ON, with no Recovery or Rom. What are my options? I'm unable to install any recovery as I'm S-on. My HBOOT is 1.44.
Unlock bootloader (yes you can with S-On)
Install custom recovery (yes you can with S-On)
Adb push or adb sideload or use OTG cable to install a 4.2.x based rom.. Do NOT install 4.3 or higher sense.
Good luck!
Could you please give me details of how I can unlock the bootloader? As per my knowleddge, Revone & Moonshine wont work. How else can I unlock the re-locked bootloader?

Hi,
Trying to install TWRP on my phone after gotten it back from service.
The bootloader is locked, the phone IS S-OFF, hboot 1.44.
When I'm trying to flash the recovery.img, i get Remote Denied when running the fastboot command.. I guess this is because the bootloader is locked?
Is there a way to unlock the bootloader WITHOUT using the htcdev method? The solutions i have found requires root, and i don't have that.. but to get root i need the recovery to flash superuser in right?

use revone with hboot 1.44: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2314582
I think it's "revone -l" (lowercase L)
EDIT: but with s-off you should be able to flash it, can you copy/paste your command prompt
The other way is to create a ZIP to flash in rebootRUU mode to flash a customer recovery. Can't remember off the top of my head how to do it, though
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then I'm getting "FAILED (remote: not allowed)
I can't use revone since i don't have superuser and therfor can't "su"
Yeah creating a zip file would be a way to go, but don't know how.. But if anyone have a guide for that it would be appriciated
You can't flash in ruu mode without s-off.
So if revone doesn't work you, you don't have any other choice.
Also revone won't work if your hboot is newer than June
As i said, i do have S-OFF so flashing in ruu mode should work
I would suggest to try... download the 1.44 Hboot RUU package (we need the android file from it) and twrp or clockworkmod
Unzip 1.44hboot zip, remove the hboot file, and move twrp/cwm and rename to recovery.img. Edit the android-info.txt to match your specifics (see MID changing thread to get an idea) and zip it back up. Flash in fastboot!
No guarentee of this process working is implied.

revone has temproot exploit, so should work.
Summery:
Hboot 1.55 - S-Off attempted with Runrunner. Stock RUU; unlocked boot loader. Failed due to lack of unsecured kernel and root. Fastboot commands crash Hboot. Can't install recovery, can't relock bootloader.
Details:
After researching for a few days how to properly S-Off, trying to be absolutely certain to execute it properly, my S-Off attempt failed leaving me with an Hboot that crashes when using Fastboot.
What I did, and why:
I had been installing and using TN's GE 4.4 roms. When it updated to 4.4.2 S-Off was required in order to update.
Began to research Rumrunners S-Off solution. Learned a Sense based ROM would be required. Attempted to flash Viper but for some reason touch was unresponsive.
I read all the instructions and prerequisites for rumrunner and learned/assumed that you only need to be unlocked.
From rumrunner.us:
"5. Your device must be HTCDEV unlocked or rooted unless using rumrunner with a device blocked by htcdev (e.g. m7wlv)"
So, I relocked the bootloader, flashed HTC's RUU exe, then re-unlocked bootloader. Assumed that would be sufficient.
Got Fastboot and ADB working properly and ran runrunner. About 5-10 mins in to the process it returned an error that said process had failed due to lack of root and lack of an unsecured kernel.
After that, I attempted to reinstall TWRP. Fastboot starts to send the img and halts Hboot. Any and all fastboot commands sent to Hboot crashes it. OS still boots and works, but I'm stuck as far as flashing anything custom. And I'm stuck unlocked, "fastboot oem lock" crashes Hboot to.
I'm I permanently stuck?

For warranty to be valid, you must be 100% stock which mean stock software and firmware including LOCKED (not RE-LOCKED) bootloader and no TAMPERED flag in bootloader. Removing both of them require S-OFF so upgrading firmware was a really bad idea (s-off is harder to achieve on newer version).
Now for your adb issue, it looks like your drivers are not installed correctly (triangle in device manager) install drivers correctly so you can have adb connectivity.
You should take a look at nkk71's guide linked in my sig below.
I solved with adb drivers now i have another problem. I pushed with sideload revolution stock rom (One_6.09.401.5_odexed) and when i try to install it from TWRP i get this : E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/sideload.zip'. What can i do ?

When we are asking "what version" we are expecting an answer with version number
You might want to try to flash your rom with twrp 2.6.3.3 as this is the most stable version.
you can check md5 using WINMD5 app (windows app)
just download it and you'll understand how it works (just drag and drop the file you want to MD5 check)
MD5 checked. 9164269273eb0038b6ae54b3cf61b73c i dont know what is this... im gonna install twrp 2.6.3.3 right now.
EDIT. THX SO MUCH GUYS FOR HELP I INSTALLED 2.6.3.3 and i insalled via sideload stock revolution rom 4.4.3. Now how can i install stock recovery?
L.E. I solved with stock recovery 2. Now its a chance to get relocked and reset tempered status?

with s-on only thing you can do is to have RELOCKED bootloader and TAMPERED flag will still be there. to relock (not lock) the bootloader:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
if you want the bootloader to be LOCKED (not re-locked) and TAMPERED flag to be removed, you first need s-off (hboot 1.57=firewater or sunshine) then use the guru bootloader reset tool from Crushalot (htc1guru.com). Tool must be used from a custom recovery but the tampered flag should be only removed on hboot 1.44/1.54 or it may reappear after a few reboot.
You can look nkk71's guide, everything explained there

Hy my htc on is stock in bootlop when i enter bootloader i cannot execute nothing it frezes no recovery no fastboot it is locked s on
Now when you say is stock does this mean you have your Hboot locked, is it rooted? Are you s-off or s-On? what were you trying to do prior to getting to a loop?
Hi all,
i was s-off and unlocked and need to go back to stock.
I flashed RUU Zip M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.20.401.1_Radio_4A.13.3227.06_10.27.1127.01_release_308001_signed_2_4.zip from fastboot,
then installed TWRP and rooted, then used revone to lock boot loader, and then i did
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
to s-on.
at this point i expected to be able to use an RUU exe to clear up the recovery and then do OTA updates.
But, the RUU fails each time with an unknown error.
So i have rooted again and attempted to s-off again with revone, but revone fails with error -1.
My boot loader screen now shows TAMPERED and UNLOCKED, and i have boot 1.43
Im not sure how to proceed. I've now got an old rom, s-on and am unable to update to anything newer.
Anyone have any ideas please?
thanks

yes 1.28.401.7 is hboot 1.44
I;ve managed to flash that RUU ok, but:-
revone still didn't work (-1 error), so I want to try to follow the instructions i was linked to above (flashing android revolution).
However, my boot loader is now RELOCKED. I've tried to unlock it again with fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_codebin and it appears to work, i.e. i get the warning screen and choose "YES" but when i reboot back into HBOOT, it's still RELOCKED>
any ideas?
