Needing some help on this one. Basically i had my htc one which was locked to the three network running cyanogenmod for a while. I then decided to go back to stock and flashed the european ruu. Stupidly i flashed back the original 1.44hboot as i thought i could get rid of the tampered flag in the boot loader which i did but this has caused me even more problems. I'm now wanting to flash the european ruu as my phone is unlocked now anyway but cannot do so as i changed my CID back to H3G__001. Ive been trying for ages to get S off without any luck at all. Ive currently got my htc one on maximusHD 11 rom which is android 4.2.2 but i am having no luck at all with rumrunner revone or even firewater.. Revone throws the -6 error every time. Any ideas how i can get s off again so i can run the european ruu and change my CID? Any help will be appreciated as this is driving me crazy.

Hi, i am new here and after some help. Have just had my htc one repaired for the 2nd time (blown top speaker ee didn't repair properly so had to go to htc) so now want to go to stock htc_001.
I am on orange and been waiting for the 1.29 update (never going to come) so i carried out s-off on my phone this morning and changed the cid to htc_001. That all went okay and i relocked the phone and put it back to s-on. When i check the cid on the phone and with revone it says htc_001, so that all worked okay.
I downloaded the htc ruu 1.28 from xda and installed it, it when through the checking and installed it all (took about 15mins), i got no error messages it said update successful. The phone rebooted and was wiped clean and had to go through all the settings when you first get your phone. When i go to software version its still running 1.28.61.7 (the orange software) and when i check for updates it says none available. I have tried twice to install the ruu and both times it says successful but won't write over the orange software.
I am not sure what i have done wrong but some help to get my phone onto stock htc so i get timely updates and not having to wait for rubbish orange.
Any help would be greatly appriciated
Thanks Ashley
CID is HTC__001 (capital letters, double underscore). If you're not using that it might not work...can't see why not tho

Thanks for the quick reply, I have just double checked it is HTC-001 the only thing i can think of is its because the orange version is a higher number to the htc. Would i have to install a ruu for a different area (asia maybe) and then put it back to HTC_001 and try to update to the 1.28 htc version? I wouldnt want it to be stuck on the wrong country version if it still wont update to the europe version.
HTC__001, not HTC_001 - you HAVE to use TWO underscores...

Thanks for replying again, I looked and I did only have 1 underscore. So I s-off it again and changed it to HTC__001 and ran the ruu again, it still not overwriting the orange software even though it says its completed and phone is ready to use.
I am not sure what to do now to get it to overwrite it, you anyone has any answers or things for me to try that would be great.

I'm also having the same problem. Changed my CID to HTC__001 (confirmed in bootloader), the RUU runs all the way through successfully (takes about 10 minutes) but the update is not applied.
Not sure what I am doing wrong?

Looks like I'm having the same issue - did either of you find a solution?
I ended up applying a nandriod backup to get 1.28.
Change cid to super cid 11111111.

Cheers - guess I'll go that way too - don't suppose you have a link to the backup - unfortunately the BugsyLawson site is down
Sorry don't have a copy to hand, I also downloaded it from that site.

I had this very similar issue yesterday, What I was trying to do was restore my other HTC One back to stock before giving it to my nephew. It made me panic a little bit because after restoring my nandroid backup I proceeded to change the CID, lock the bootloader and have S-ON. But after doing that I just remembered that I forgot to change the MID back to the original and also I have the "Tampered" flag..
So I got S-OFF again and unlocked the bootlaoder and ran the 1.28.401.7 RUU just to start fresh before I change the MID back and get rid of the "Tampered" flag. Anyway even after I ran the RUU the the original ROM was still there and the "Tampered" flag was still present. I didn't get any errors at all when running the RUU.
So in the end after erasing the cache and dalvik cache I managed to successfully get the 1.28.401.7 on the HTC One and flashed the 1.29.401.12 OTA. I then locked the bootloader and put S-ON back. I didn't bother changing the MID back because I had enough of flashing for the day.
Up to now I still don't have any clue what I did or happened why the RUU won't overwrite the original ROM (nandroid restore). I'm just glad thatit is back to stock. It may have a different stock ROM but I'm sure my nephew won't even care what he has.

I managed to sort it out, not sure how I did it really. I tried to flash it manually which it didn't do as it was playing games with me. I tried the ruu with supercid which it didn't work. I put it back to HTC__001 and relocked it then tried flashing manually again, it didn't work so tried afew times but no luck. So I tried the ruu one more time and it worked, I got the 1.29.401.12 ota straight away too. I think trying to manually flash it corrupted something so the ruu was able to overwrite orange. The phone nearly broke me and was about to give in but glad I kept at it though as orange updates are ridiculous.
Thanks to all that helped me with my error of not putting 2 underscores in the cid.
I am just hoping the 4.2.2 updates on my phone okay when it's released soon.
Hello everyone!
I have an AT&T HTC One that is S-Off, relocked, SuperCID, black HBoot 1.54, currently on ViperOne 2.7 with stock kernel. I've been trying for the past day and a half to get the 3.22.1540.1 Brightstar WWE to run so I could have it back to stock with the most current OS. I also want to fully convert it to a Developer's Edition phone as well. I thought that with SuperCID you could run any RUU but so far every single time it ends in an error. I also tried changing the CID to the Developer's Edition CID (BS_US001) and still came back with the same error. So here I am on the greatest place in the world for Android phone assistance and advice asking for help in getting my phone converted to a Developer's Edition and/or on the 3.22 RUU. Thanks in advance for any help.
P.S. I already did try to search like crazy for the answers to my questions.!
Well you may need a stock recovery to run an ruu.exe. And I'd recommend going back to super-cid and then running the ruu as well. Be sure you back up all your information that you do then wish to lose, as the ruu will format the entire phone.

No need to relock boot loader because the developer edition comes by default unlocked. Unlock it to continue. You need to change your CID to 11111111 (super CID) and you need to flash the 1.44 hboot (I believe) the black hboot may be causing the problem.
Downgrade to the lowest firmware you can find for the Developers edition.
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
(Yes, twice.)
Check to be sure everything was successful.
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Make sure the bootloader is locked.
Run the ruu.
Let it do its thing.
Boot the phone and set it up.
Go to settings - about phone - software information - system update.
Allow it to download and update.
Repeatedly check for update until you reach 4.3

Hi there,
Did you get it work 3.22.1540.1 dev edition on your phone?, im still stuck in the same problem, got an HTC One AT&T, i got working the RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.29.1540.16.exe (dev edition), when i check for updates, there's an update of 17mb, after updating that one, i check again and found the 3.22.1540.1 OTA (around 550mb), i downloaded and agree to install it, but when reboot the phone, it got stuck in the HTC logo screen, did not go further, even trying to get into recovery, same thing, got stuck in HTC logo screen.
Another test i did, was installing RUU_M7_UL_JB43_SENSE50_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_3.22.1540.1.exe and even the zip version, both of them install correctly but same problem, got stuck in HTC Logo screen, right now my phone is Unlocked bootloader, S-off with supercid (also tried the BS_US001 CID, same problem), hboot 1.55, is there any chance someone can help me with it? thanks a lot

go into stock recovery and do a factory reset ..it should boot then
Hi. I had my HTC One unlocked, S-Off, Rooted and I was running ViperOne Rom and everything was running fine but I wanted to return to 100% stock so I could get my 40GB Google Drive. But now I can't get S-Off again, i've unlocked my bootloader and i've tried to S-Off using Rumrunner and various other ways with cmd but it fails everytime. Has anyone else had this problem or am I missing something. Cheers Alex.
Hi all,
When I first got my M7, I unlocked it and installed TWRP to make backups. I had experience doing this with my sensation and followed the guides posted here. When the Sense 6 update came out, I wanted to update, so I was tried using REVONE to remove the TAMPERED and UNLOCKED but it set it to RELOCKED. Apparently, it wasn't compatible with the android version 4.4.2, which I realized too late.
Now, I'm trying to get S-OFF and unlock the bootloader so I can flash an 4.2 rom, then use REVONE and go back to stock. I've tried using nkk71's SuperGUIDE to returning 100% back to stock, but neither Firewater nor Rumrunner will work with my device (HBOOT 1.56) - they both finish early and tell me I'm out of luck.
What's the next possibility? I'm in Asia with the TW stock rom. I can probably bring it to the store and let them handle it, but it'll take up to 7 days to get it completely back to stock. Is there anything else I can try before doing that?
tl;dr: Phone is Stock ASIA TW rom & recovery, HBOOT 1.56, *TAMPERED*, *RELOCKED*, and *S-ON*. Can't flash OTA or get S-OFF with Firewater.
EDIT: Nevermind. Seem to have soft-bricked my phone while attempting to install ARHD. Now no OS and can't load anything except TWRP. ADB Sideload doesn't work, ADB push doesn't work. Guess I'll bring it to the store and see if they can fix it.

If it's not too late, I have been in this situation before. I bought an OTG cable and downloaded a stock ROM guru reset. From there, I successfully S-OFFed my device with HBOOT 1.56 using the firewater method.
Hope this helps
Hello all. Bought my first HTC One (AT&T version, SIM unlocked) used on Craigslist and it's a bit of a puzzle.
It's got hboot 1.44, been htcdev bootloader unlocked, and was running CyanogenMod 11 from the Installer when I got it. It's still S-ON though, and for reasons relating to attempting to get warranty repairs, I'd like to get S-OFF, but haven't had any luck.
I can flash any recovery I like (currently CWM Touch 6.0.4.8 m7), and any rom that I've tried (so far only AOSP-based), but no s-off tool I've tried will work. I downgraded the phone to Cyanogen 10.1 (android 4.2) and tried revone, but it just reboots the phone when I try "revone -P". I've been too scared to just go ahead and try the "rev one -s 0" command.
Firewater and rumrunner won't work on this hboot. I have not tried moonshine yet.
I've read a lot of horror stories on the forums, and I don't want to brick this phone in trying to get s-off. I've heard that Android Revolution HD 31.6 works well with revone, but I've also been too scared to flash that incase I inadvertently update the hboot.
What is my best bet for gaining S-OFF?? I'm no newb to flashing and I am more than comfortable with a commandline, I just don't know what to flash.
Lastly, I need to go back to stock so I can send this phone in for warranty repair, but I don't want to lose S-OFF if I send it away. Is there a way to do this?
UPDATE: got it all sorted. flashed the maximusHD rom (android 4.2.2) from HERE and successfully seized S-OFF with revone. Going back to stock now.
