[Q] need help restoring htc one m7 to 100% stock - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys
i'm trying to get my htc one back to how it was when it was in the box
on my boot screen i have these stats:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID-HTC__001
HBOOT-1.54.0000
i've managed to get it unlocked and to s-off this evening (a lot of the guides seemed to require these before being able to flash anything, including stock roms)
the thing is, i don't know where to go next. is it a case of just downloading a rom and flashing it to get stock? how do i get right of tampered and unlocked? whats an ruu? do i need to flash an ruu? or is an ruu just a rom?
i'm totally lost :/
thanks for any help you can offer

Well first of all, whoever told you that S-off was needed to flash the ROM that came with your phone is wrong. I have no idea why so many people say this. Here's what you need to do.
1. To remove the tampered flag, use this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2497712
2. Now lock the bootloader. Use the same guide, but step number 7.
3. Now flash the RUU for your CID. If you don't know which one, just run this command and post the exact output here. "fastboot getvar all"

[Q] where is htc one factory shipped rom?

Hi,
Another noob question from me.
I recently bought a HTC One. I uploaded a custom ROM (was silly and didn't backup properly). I'd like to have the ability to restore the phone to a complete factory reset. I want the same, exact HTC ROM that the phone originally shipped with, and also no ***TAMPERED***, ***UNLOCKED***. I'll worry about the tampered and unlocked later (locking should be easy - but i want ***LOCKED*** not ***RELOCKED***).
My phone's info:
M7_U PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.44.0000
RADIO-4A.14.3250.13
OpenDSP-v26.120.274.0202
eMMC-boot
Mar 15 2013,22:11:42:-1
I keep on running into deadends thinking I've found the factory stock ROM, but when I try to install it, I get errors like 'could not install'...
At some point I relocked the phone and the install went further, but eventually failed with a 'wrong model' error or something. Based on the model info above of my phone can someone point me in the right direction to find the correct ROM?
Thanks so much. I hope soon to be just as much of a contributor as I am an asker...
First of all you cannot get it to state locked it will always say relocked until a s-off is achieved where you will be able to downgrade hboot and second of all download the app below and post the results.

Thanks...downloaded. A long list of variables with no cut'n'paste...but here is maybe the relevant info:
ro.boot.carrier HTC-Asia-SEA-WWE
ro.boot.cid HTC__044
ro.boot.mid PN0711000
ro.cm.device m7
ro.product.module HTC One
ro.product.name htc_m7
Any other details I can provide?
I think this original RUU should suffice.

[Q] preserve s-off, locked status on stock 1.54

Hi, I recently got a new HTC One sim free, shipped with 1.54 bootloader from HTC. I knew that revone/moonshine do not enable s-off with 1.54 so I shipped the device off for s-off to fonefunshop and got them to do s-off and supercid on the device. Before shipping it off I rooted and installed twrp recovery.
When I received the device back, it still has the shipped rom on it, along with a few apps I installed. TWRP is still installed its still rooted. The bootloader is showing that its locked (not relocked), but it still shows the tampered flag.
Q1. What is the best way of getting rid of the tampered flag and keeping s-off, and locked status (not relocked).
Q2. If the above is possible will I be able to get OTA's without loosing s-off or locked?
The bootloader currently looks as follows:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** LOCKED ***

I really dont want to lose s-off, or get to relocked status again if possible.
Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, I did search, but because s-off was not achieved with moonshine/revone I am a little unsure how to proceed.
Getting rid of the tampered flag is simple but fraught with problems
Flashing modified hboots is risky at the best of times..... if you try to go back to s-on or relock then you will brick your device. You will need to flash the original hboot if you want to go back.

1.54 s-off yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
Hi,
I fixed this with my funfoneshop buddies.
Just flashed an old RUU and after 5 OTA's 1.54, still s-off, locked, and no tampered flag.
Just in case someone else gets the same problem.
Was just gonna say use the 1.28.401.7 RUU and then OTA it until at 2.24.401.8 but you've sorted it out so it's all good

Help ! Keep on getting ruu error 155 flashing htc one back to stock

Thx for all your kindness, I'm completely new and noob here and i keep getting ruu error 155 while flashing my htc one back to stock.
I'm using an Asia wwe model, I have already unlock the bootloader and use both Asia wwe RUU from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860.
But i still can't update my phone. Here is the information shown in my bootloader screen:

I relock the bootloader , tick allow usb debugging in developer setting, boot into fastboot usb mode and run the ruu as admin, and it wont work. I really need help for this.
Your help will be much appreciate !!!
you need s-off and 1.44 hboot dude
Yeah, Ive just been through all this yesterday. My advice. Well, the safest option is to flash a guru reset rom through your custom recovery from http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/. It basically takes your rom and recovery back to stock. I think HTC must've built in protection to the RUU to prevent flashing under Hboot 1.55 to prevent failure of the touch screen........I didn't want to start messing with downgrading bootloaders so I flashed Guru's reset.....I'm now on stock with S-off and "Locked" bootloader.....which GURU also has a flashable zip for.... once again, flash it in recovery....also removes tampered flag if you've got that. Get that here http://www.htc1guru.com/guides/guru-bootloader-reset/
EDIT. Just noticed your S-ON...you need to be S-OFF to do all the above, sorry man.

[Q] Help, my XL is not booting.

Hey guys.
So I wanted to go back to SXL Stock ROM but somewhere it went wrong.
I re-locked the bootloader or whatever it's called, and downloaded Stock ROM called:
"RUU_Runnymede_HTC_Europe_1.05.401.4_R_Radio_20.5101.30.0822_3822.10.10.12_M_release_222101_signed.exe"
After I re-locked the bootloader, it didn't boot up again, it only comes to the white screen with BOOTLOADER, REBOOT, etc etc. So I ran the .exe file and it began sending the ROM but an error occurred, error 155 I believe. Something about "Hboot is older" I think.
What do I do? I'm really newb at this and need some help.
This info at the white screen.

Thanks!
[EDIT]
So I unlocked the bootloader again, and my phone restarted and my custom ROM booted again. So I got that going for me. But it's been restored, so everything's gone but that's fine with me. I just want to go back to STOCK ROM. It has Vertigo's Total Senseless v4.1.1 on it right now.
So it seems all you have to do is RELOCK the bootloader.
Find the correct RUU.exe (WHERE?)
Connect to PC, run .exe and wait for it be done, and it will be stock. That's what I've been reading on here. But I can't find correct RUU. Am I right or wrong?

[Q] Can't S-OFF, tried everything!

Hey guys,
I know there are threads everywhere like this, but all I want to do is take my M7 back to stock and sell it. I've tried everything I've seen and I'm frustrated. I have root with SuperSU and TWRP recovery. I had S-OFF with an unlocked bootloader and stock Lollipop, then used revone to set the lock flag and set S-ON and remove tampered. Then I hit factory reset in bootloader, which was a huge mistake because now it's S-ON and tampered.
Since then I've tried revone, and setting the -P flag does not work, and running ./revone -s 0 -u on my mac doesn't work either. I'm running revone with su. I've also tried rumrunner in Windows on VMWare, which never gets past the sanitizing stage (even though SuperUser is granting permission to 'id'), and it just displays TTTTT**************** and press Enter to Exit.
I've also tried both locked and unlocked, and I had a newer hboot before and it didn't work either.
Here's my bootloader:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***

I'm out of ideas and I just want the quickest way to be done with this phone and sell it.
Thanks in advance!
Lock the bootloader and flash the 7.x RUU and forget about it
Only HTC cares about the phone saying Tampered / Relocked no one else cares
Ok I guess. Was hoping there's a simple way to do it because the phone just sold and I hadn't posted that it has a tampered flag. Is this the RUU I should use? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658910. I need a decryped version I can install with Mac because I'm not having luck with the Windows RUUs in VMWare.
Sunshine s off is your only chance with hboot 1.60
How can I upgrade hboot to have more options? Also, is that that the right RUU to use? Lastly, trying to relock bootloader with revone and that's not working now.
Thanks for the help!
Sunshine is the only option for hboot 1.57 and up. Upgrading hboot won't give you more options. Revone is only to be used with hboot 1.44. If you want to relock then use fastboot oem lock. And no this is not the right ruu. It must be same version or higher when s-on.
