Did you apply the Sense 6 OTA to your phone? If you did, then the hboot is a higher number than the RUU you are trying to re-install. The same thing happen to me and I had to install a lower hboot. Check @nkk71 SuperGUIDE to returning 100% back to stock for instructions on how to do install a lower hboot.

All,
I have the Dev Edition with S-OFF and CID111111 running ARHD 13.3. With the latest update to the Dev Edition to 4.3, can I just flash the RUU for the latest of the Dev Edition? Will it work with TWRP custom recovery?
Thanks for any info.
Emh, the RUU isn't a zip, but an exe that you have to flash with the pc...
However, you can flash it
You can flash an RUU when S-OFF with Super CID, I've done it a number of times
The RUU is a complete update so it will overwrite the custom recovery anyway
Awesome guys....with that being said, I have a few more question. Since I'm S-Off and Super CID, you said I can flash any RUU, but it will wipe the custom recovery. That is fine, but when I want to flash a ROM in the future, I will have to reflash a new recovery correct? Will this mess with my HBOOT? I'm on 1.55 right now.
Also, I'm on the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39588860 looking at the collecdtion of RUU's...do I flash the ZIP, EXE or the Decrypted RUU's?
Again, thanks for your replies!
Download the RUU from HTCDev directly so you know you've got the right file, then flash it with the phone connected in fastboot. It will downgrade the HBOOT and put the phone back to 1.29.1540.16 and be just like it was out the box (except you'll still be S-OFF with Super CID). You can then get the OTA to .17 and then the OTA to Android 4.3...after that, you can flash a custom recovery and do what you want (but I'd take a nandorid first of course)
EDDYOS,
Thanks for all your info!! I will do exactly that!
One last question, I promise...since I am on S-OFF I should not be worried that flashing the RUU and downgrading to HBOOT 1.54 and not be able to achieve SOFF again? Cause isn't 1.54 having issues with SOFF? Or does that not matter to me since I have the Dev Editoin?
Again, thanks for all your advice.
You'll stay S-OFF so it's irrelevant...the only way you'll go S-ON is if YOU make it. RUUs/OTAs don't touch it
Example:
I'm currently on 2.24.401.8, HBOOT 1.54 and have S-OFF (as I did it when I could ages ago). I recently went back to 1.28.401.7 using the RUU and was still S-OFF. I then got the 4 OTAs to get back to 2.24.401.8 and I'm still S-OFF

Thanks alot! Gotcha!
Hey guys
My htc one was s-off and 2 weeks ago because of garanty purposes I got back to s-on but with a wrong build number via a wrong ruu.
I flashed a 4.19.401.9 ruu and then did s-on without problem.
Its on hboot 1.56.
now I want to s-off it but no method works.
Even I cant re flash 4.19.401.9 ruu exe because of MID error.
I tried firewater with CM11 and ARHD 71 without success.
Now I wonder how to get s-off or change the OS version or Hboot version??
Help me please if you can.
Thanks in advanced.
★☆HTC ULTIM8☆★
I flashed stock firmware and I could update OS AND HBOOT Version
But no luck to s-off.
Its complicated.

do not take ota updates! When the hboot is updated, it contain patches to block the s-off exploit! Easier to s-off on 1.44 - 1.54 - 1.55
now try to s-off using arhd 31.6 or 53 + firewater and also post the output of "fastboot getvar all" except the imei and serialno
report any error code displayed by firewater
Thanks man.
At the moment I gave up because Im very busy.
But in if I did, I'll inform you to guide me.
Thanks a lot.

here are some links, if you're going to use a signed/encryped ruu, then you'll need to downgrade hboot first https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407580580

considering you are s-off,
very little, but even with s-off, you will first need to downgrade hboot to same or lower version than the signed ruu.exe/ruu.zip
on the other hand, a decrypted ruu.zip doesn't have that restriction

So my process will be...
1. Downgrade hboot to 1.44
2. Change back my cid to HTC__002 (when i flashed the RUU from the GPE i changed it to GOOGL001)
3. Flash the RUU zip
Is that right?

you don't have to go back to hboot 1.44
If your RUU is 4.xx flash a 3.xx firmware first
or 3.xx RUU a 3.xx or 2.xx firmware will work.
you may also need the MID change tool if you changed it also

The 1.28.401.7 is Jelly Bean it's equal to a 3.xx.xxx.x RUU
So the Firmware you would want is this http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/HTC/HTC_One/401/2.24.401.8.zip
Hi!
I've already read like a million tutorials on how to do that, but I think they won't work on my phone. I have the international unlocked version that I later converted to Google Play Edition. So now I have a GPE bootloader, TWRP recovery and root. Below I include a picture of my bootloader. My hboot is 1.54 so I can't use revone to relock the bootloader and make it s-on again, right? I really need you help guys, what should I do?
Edit: I downloaded this RUU "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 " - will it work on my phone? I'm not doing anything yet, because I don't want to brick it.
Edit 2: I downgraded my hboot to 1.44 and my phone still hasn't blown up so I guess that's a good sign.

if your phone was on a x.xx.401.x version originally, then use the 1.28.401.7 ruu, then remove *tampered* and *relocked* banner using guru bootloader reset tool by booting a custom recovery using "fastboot boot recovery.img". You can then turn back s-on and send your phone. Everything is described in nkk71's guide linked in my signature.
Don't forget to set back your original CID and MID if you have changed them to convert your phone to GPE before running the ruu
Can't I use the RUU I downloaded? It's 4.19.401.9. I'm not sure what the original number was, but according to the download page it's compatible with my MID and CID.

not for warranty purpose cause you must be on hboot 1.44 or 1.54 to remove the "tampered" and "relocked" flags form bootloader.
4.x.401.x ruu is hboot 1.55
1.x.401.x ruu is hboot 1.44
@alray I didn't know RUUs could also update hboot. Thank you for the information. So the 1.x.401.x files are Jelly Bean RUUs, but I'll be able to update to kitkat over the air when I'm done restoring to stock?

Ruu update everything, firmware and software.
Yes you'll be able to take ota update after but don't update before you have removed tampered and relocked from the bootloader. Follow instructions in the guide.
@alray Alright, thank you very much. Will I be able to return to a full GPE after I receive it back from the service?

If you are able to achieve s-off again yes.
They will probably update your phone so it might be more difficult to achieve when it comes back.
@alray I'm having a problem with the guide you linked. It says to enter CWM recovery and use adb commands to remove flags and lock the bootloader, but I can't use any adb commands inside CWM. How do I fix this?
Edit: OK, I fixed this by using TWRP instead of CWM. Can I leave S-OFF and update the device normally, then restore it to GPE after I receive it back from service?

do not update the phone now, just turn back s-on and send it for repair. Its easier to get back s-off on lower version so better not to take any ota, however they will maybe update your phone at the service center (hopefully not).
Hey Guys

Is your phone on the at&t network? If not you willl not receive ota updates and flashing ota update manually requires S-OFF. Try rumrunner S-OFF. Once S-OFF change your CID so you can flash the Dev edition RUU and receive ota updates normally.
My phone is AT&T but I can't update because I am not using the same carrier. Rumrunner will not work because my hboot 1.44.000 even revone didn't work. So please help me to make s-off

Then update your hboot to 1.54/.1.55 using a RUU
this one for example: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/ruu_m7_...3_10-38j-1157-04_release_334235_signed_2-exe/
Once the RUU is flashed (and hboot updated) unlock the bootloader, flash twrp recovery, root the phone and achieve s-off using rumrunner
Or you can buy sunshine s-off for 25 if you want to make it simple.
I tried with RUU flashs but also not working

What is the problem exactly when flashing the RUU?
Error 158. It doesn't flash. Taking in consideration that I'm choosing the right flash.
Is there any way to flash hboot alone or change cid with s-on,?
