[Q] Boot loop converted GPE - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI,
I've converted my HTC one into a google play edition, but this morning i wanted to convert it back to stock HTC rom and I guess I messed it all up.
Whenever I turn my phone one it loads into android but then reboots after a second or two. The only way to stop this loop is to press power and volume down and enter the bootloader. From here I can shut down the phone. I'm not able to do a recovery or a factory reset.
The phone says tampered and relocked. My question is how to unlock it again? the htcdev method don't seem to be working neither does the fastboot oem unlock command.
fastboot getvar all gives me the following:
version: 0.5
version-bootloader: 1.54.0000
version-baseband: 4T.21.3218.21
version-cpld: None

partition-layout: Generic
security: on
build-mode: SHIP
boot-mode: FASTBOOT
commitno-bootloader: dirty-5d4c562c
hbootpreupdate: 11
gencheckpt: 0
the fastboot oem unlock commands returns the following:
(bootloader) [PG_ERROR] htc_pg_part_traverse(839):
(bootloader) invalid traverse range
(bootloader) [PG_ERROR] htc_pg_part_read(1029):

(bootloader) ead error!
(bootloader) [DISPLAY_ERR] Can not load custom splash!
(bootloader) Loading custom splash failed!
OKAY [ 0.538s]

I've searched high and low but without much luck. Hope someone is able to help me out!

[Q] "Phone bricked, stuck at loading" after attempting to install busybox

Hi guys,
My phone bricked after I rooted my htc one 801e and attempted to install busybox. When I entered twrp recovery, most of the actions I did resulted in "unable to mount system"
Browsing around online, I came across some guides to restore stock ruu. i went and fastbot oem locked my phone and now I'm stuck. Lost recovery, (any attempt to access recovery only resulted in returning to fastboot menu) re-flashing recovery and/or ruu results in "FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)"
Does anyone have any solution(s) to this?
my info is as follows:-
(bootloader) version: 0.5

You need to unlock bootloader. What RUU you tried? Sounds like it was not official.

I tried to re-unlock bootloader but it doesnt work. Gave me signature error. as for the ruu, i tried both http: //www .androidruu .com/index.php?developer=M7 and Guru Reset versions. Both gave signature errors. Basically, trying anything seems to give signature error. Hence I cant install recovery nor can I unlock bootloader.

I was trying to factory reset to remove device encryption and I am just dumb, really really dumb...
I typed in: fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
So now my device is on 1.54 with S-ON. I can't run rumrunner as it wants access to ADB, my ATT HTC One was the latest GPE and encrypted and now for some reason will not boot into the OS. I've tried unlocking via htcdev and I get a success message in fastboot but nothing changes. Factory reset does nothing, and I can't install the RUU.zip or use the RUU.exe, I get an error stating the signature verification failed. I get that sig verification failed with an insertcoin ROM as well. Can anyone help me?

Do you have stock or custom recovery installed?
I had TWRP installed but now it will not boot to it via the recovery option in hboot, it just goes back into the loading google boot loop. I just tried to repush TWRP to the device but got FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
Brought the phone to ATT and they actually gave me another one. Lesson learned.

[Q] Full Conversion of HTC One to GPE 4.4 Relocked Bootloader

@nkk71
I have been scouring the internet for weeks, and trying many different thing to try and resolve my issue, but to no avail.
I thought I would start again..... Completely!
I live in the UK, I bought and HTC One from Three (Sense Edition), upon using this phone for a month, i grew tired of the uninteresting interface and lack of vigour. So i decided to convert it, to 4.4.
All went well for a while, then I decided I wanted to do a full conversion and get the Google Edition OTA updates. so here is my predicament.
I unlocked my bootloader from HTCDev originally, and only S-off'd my phone for the conversion.
Code:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
[COLOR="Red"][B](bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.54.0000[/B][/COLOR]
[COLOR="red"][B](bootloader) version-baseband: 4T.21.3218.21[/B][/COLOR]
(bootloader) version-cpld: None
(bootloader) version-microp: None
[COLOR="Red"][B](bootloader) version-main: 3.58.1700.5[/B][/COLOR]
[COLOR="red"][B](bootloader) version-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON[/B][/COLOR]
(bootloader) serialno: REDACTED

(bootloader) battery-status: good
(bootloader) battery-voltage: 4198mV
(bootloader) partition-layout: Generic

(bootloader) build-mode: SHIP
(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT
(bootloader) commitno-bootloader: dirty-5d4c562c
(bootloader) hbootpreupdate: 11
(bootloader) gencheckpt: 0
Now. I S-offed, and fully RUU flashed the 4.3 Google Play Edition RUU from the HTC1Guru.
Upon completion I sreset S-on using
Code:
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
and finished with
Code:
fastboot oem lock
ok So i guess its not all that bad, I have a working phone with OTA updates, as it updated to 4.4 with no problems at all, However... I play around with my phone quite a bit and decided i want to make a backup of my phone so I can try a new ROM.
At first I tried to unlock my HTC One again with HTCDev - and after googling why it didn't work i felt like an idiot.
so i used
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
to receive the following
Code:
(bootloader) [PG_ERROR] htc_pg_part_traverse(839):
(bootloader) invalid traverse range
(bootloader) [PG_ERROR] htc_pg_part_read(1029):
(bootloader) htc_pg_part_traverse failed
(bootloader) [DISPLAY_ERR] sp_custom partition: unlock_disp_buf.img_buf r
(bootloader) ead error!
(bootloader) [DISPLAY_ERR] Can not load custom splash!
(bootloader) Loading custom splash failed!
OKAY [ 0.531s]
finished. total time: 0.531s
I cannot unlock, I cannot S-Off, I cannot flash RUUs because i get either
Code:
Main-Version check failed or Signature Verification Failed
All I want to do is unlock the bootloader, and I cannot seem to do so. I defer to the experts here and hope you would impart some wisdom on me

My friend told me to root my phone, so I did, and then it didn't really do anything, so I wanted to unroot it. It was my first time, and I was stupid, and my phone is still S-ON. It is unlocked, and it says tampered at the top of the bootloader screen. When I try to turn my phone on regularly, it gets stuck at the HTC ONE loading screen. (HTC ONE M7) I typed in fastboot getvar all in the cmd and this is what came up:

So I managed to flash the original rom.zip. But when I typed in fastboot reboot, it is stuck in the htc one white start screen.

boot the phone into fastbootUSB mode in the bootloader and plug it into the computer then run these commands:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
the phone should now say relocked at the top..................next follow the manual update instructions from here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-att/news/ the file to download is at the bottom of that same page.
be warned this will completely wipe your phone.

Trying the HTCdev unlock path also fails, the code is written to the device, sure, but it never creates the unlock splash confirmation screen.
Kind of at my wit's end with this device at this point - I've seen threads here (from 2014) regarding this, but nothing much in the period since.
Any ideas on where I should go with this?

If I remember correctly, this problem affected all GPE m7 since 2014 when they pushed the 4.4.2 OTA update. They never (Google or neither HTC) solved this in later updates.
If you really want it to be unlocked, you could try to achieve S-OFF with the same method used for the Verizon variant. Once S-OFF achieved you can flash and boot TWRP recovery even if the bootloader is locked. Boot the recovery and unlock the bootloader using TWRP command terminal
Code:
echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=33796
