Hey guys, so I got my Sprint HTC One M8 Harmon/Kardon Edition today, rooted it, and achieved s-off. Now I am just wondering if it is safe to install the custom firewater hboot since I am pretty sure that it was made for the non Harmon/Kardon edition. If anyone has any insight, that would be great.

There's a Firewater HBOOT?
EDIT: Well look at that. Didn't know that existed. Cool. Firewater HBOOT should be fine.

Awesome. would I need to super CID first? Cause I just tried to install it, didn't get any errors, but my hboot did not change.

I notice ENG commands aren't enabled though. In the custom HBOOTs I was testing, adding the ENG commands made the device unbootable. I guess they never found a way around that .

Very nice, I don't really care too much about it since kernels flash normally in recovery unlike the evo3D was a pain in the ass. Not that I flash kernels that often. It is nice to have though for updating radios without it being a pain in the ass or going back to stock without having the relocked flag.
Hi, I was wondering if there was going to be an RUU for 4.03.651.2 firmware. I tried to take the update with an outdated version of TWRP, and I would like to go back to stock and reroot. I have tried and failed to gain S-Off with Revone and moonshine. I am unsure of what to do. My phone is not recognized by ADB in recovery, so I cannot use the S-Off workaround to flash an old RUU. Any suggestions/responses are appreciated.
Thanks,
Vobeyo

Hmm... I just assumed that there wouldn't be an RUU for 1.31. Do you know of any way to gain S-Off so that I can flash the 1.29 RUU?
RUU
This can be very frustrating, I know.
I used Moonshine to achieve S-OFF, yesterday. Reason was because I managed to delete almost everything, I still don't know exactly what happened. However, if I remember correctly, you need S-On in order to run a stock RUU. There are several threads that pretty much will walk you thru the steps needed to flash the RUU. I was on them yesterday.
Good luck.

You don't need S-Off or S-On to run the RUU, but the bootloader has to be locked (or relocked). Believe that I read that HTC was going to not release RUUs any more because they didn't want others to tear them apart, etc. But don't quote me on that one...
From my understanding, S-Off is required to flash an RUU for a firmware version that does not match the version you are currently on. Could you please refer me to one of these threads? I would appreciate it very much.

I've also heard the same however how can I gain S-Off without mounting the internal storage? Or ADB? I can't get either to work.

I believe that if you have a custom recovery installed, you can use the workaround by accessing the terminal from the recovery, type the command, and then lock the bootloader. I am not completely sure on that, though.
If your on 4.3 there is no RUU and no s-off exploit at this time. This is why it's always recommended to root/s-off before you update.

If you have exhausted the many combinations for firewater and you are receiving the whelps this sucks message then your another alternative is the paid S-OFF Sunshine.

Is that a guaranteed s-off? I wouldn't want to waste 25$
It isn't wasted. It does compatibility checks before it does anything. Most important thing is to have stock kernel for it to work

Try flashing a newer firmware?
[Guide] HTC ONE Hboot 1.57 Root S-Off Change CID Downgrade Hboot & OS
Search the above phrase on google. The first result should be from the site forums(dot)gsmhosting(com) with the title same as search.
I am a new user so I can't post external links.
I used that guide to achieve S-Off on my HTC One M7 UL with Hboot v. 1.57.
I had to run the final firewater commands several times before firewater launched finally. Enough tries to make me memorize those commands so I stopped copying and pasting them and instead actually typing them. But it worked for me.
I hope it helps.

Have you checked settings to see what network mode is checked? Check each one separately to see which one gives the best results. Auto generally works best! Did you have a GSM or CDMA phone?
I bought an HTC One from a friend of a friend and everything worked fine the first day then today it started rebooting randomly. I would like to take it back to complete stock firmware. It is currently s-on with the 1.55 hboot and bootloader is unlocked. I need someone to explain what exactly I need to do to get back to stock. I saw an RUU but it said I must be on hboot 1.56 and I have no idea how to do that.
Thanks in advance.

Don't know if you're still interested in doing this, but flash http://download.chainfire.eu/450/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.00.zip in recovery and it might fix your rebooting problem.
Thanks, I went ahead and went back to bone stock though. I am fatigued when it comes to customizing my phone's. I even kept my Nexus 5 stock after about a month.
