What are you sending it in for to be repaired?
To use firewater, you should flash a custom ROM like arhd 81.0 and bulletproof kernel. It doesn't contain the anti firewater patch
For repairs, it's better if you have removed tampered and the bootloader as locked, not relocked. Being s on isn't really that important but to get rid of the tampered you MUST be s off
By the way, if you do go s off, do NOT do the command fastboot writesecureflag 3 to go s on again (if you achieve s off) as this will reset your bootloader to tampered again
the reason for sending it back is the purple camera issue

i have several issues that i want anyone to clarify please:
1- my phone is HTC ONE M7u with MID PN701000, But the CID is HTC_BS001 wich i've known that this CID is for the developer edition version
and my phone is NOT a developer edition, and i don't know what is the proper stock rom for my phone since i've installed custom recovery and custom rom and i want to get back to 100% stock
tip: the phone downloaded this OTA once i opened the phone for the first time
(( OTA_M7_UL_JB_50_BrightstarUS_WWE_1.29.1540.17-1.29.1540.16_R_release_322965_signedanlz8jm3dy4gzqgi ))
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2- about the S-off and S-on, if i have S-off and i reverted to 100% stock rom and recovery will this prevent the phone from updating to 4.3 via OTA ?
------------------------------------
3- can i execute S-off while using custom Rom ? or i have to be stock ???
-----------------------------------------
4- i tried to download some stock Ruu.exe from (Bugsylawson "which is unavailable now,htc1guru and androidruu.com) but i've never been able to complete the download or even pass 30% and i don't know why..is there any website other than those that supports resuming !!
-----------------------------
thank you guys
Wait, if your phone is an M7u, there is a prob, because the MID and the CID of this version aren't right.
So, are you S-OFFed or you're S-ON?
If you're s-off you can revert back to 100% stock and get the ota update by HTC
yes it's M7UL and i didn't S-off the phone yet
can anyone provide help please
Which hboot you have?? You can do the s-off??

You can acheive the S-OFF.
Do it
Ok so i have searched but unable to find an answer to my question.
I want to downgrade my Hboot from 1.54 back to 1.44. I do have s-off. I s-offed when my hboot was on 1.44 using revone. My hboot was upgraded after doing a firmware update.
So i need to send my phone in for repairs (the infamous purple camera) and i want to downgrade so I can return to stock, remove "tampered" and relock.
As stated I am currently S-off and have read its possible to downgrade if you are s-off, just need to be pointed in the right direction

I wouldn't downgrade and s-on for warranty, it isn't necessary, they won't check and you will regret it because you will get back your phone s-on and upgraded to hboot 1.54, so non-s-offable for now. I did it too without any problems.
Just make you phone stock again (install a stock ruu is it is available), lock (not relock) your phone and remove tampered flag (running an ruu would remove it, if there is no ruu do it first because revone won't work without root on hboot 1.54)
BTW purple camera is just software whitebalance problem not a hardware problem
You just need to downgradethe firmware. It contains the hboot.
But as @godutch said, it's not necessary.

Ok cool, thanks guys, so I just need a flash a firmware zip containing 1.44 Hboot and im good to go?
Basically i just want to get rid of the tampered flag.
Iv done the 4.3 upgrades with supposedly fix the camera but its made no effect on mine :crying: so the only other option I have to try and get them to change the camera module.
Thanks again guys. Much appreciated. You will get a thanks each
you don't need to downgrade. h-boot 1.54 is normal and considerated STOCK for devices who made OTA update.
don't do stupid thing's
i removed tampared flag with revone -t

it does but you need to be s-off and rooted for it to work but you don't have to do what you are trying to do and you will regret it later....
just try with 1.54 , multiple times
hboot 1.55

I had my phone repaired twice and they didn't say any thing about the boot loader being unlock. However, since that I have s-off and the phone needs to go to repair for the microphone not working and I wonder if I could either s-on and lock the boot loader with hboot 1.55? If you have any advice, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

not recommended, as far as i've seen, going from s-off to s-on (on 100% stock everything), after a few reboots, has a high chance of resulting in "tamper detected - rebooting" and the TAMPERED sign is back.
I'm currently S-ON , on insertcoin , bootloader shows TAMPERED and UNLOCKED...
And the htc courier is coming in 6 hours to send the phone in for repair for the camera tint...
I'm Desperate
Rumrunner on insertcoin or flash this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358738 and then runrunner to s-off and remove the tampered
in bootloader?
I think i read that tampered is there because i have a custom recovery , so the above stock rom with stock recovery will remove that logo? Or it's like knox that once tripped cannot be reverted?

You need to S-OFF, Unlock, Set your CID to 1111111, Run a stock RUU, Then set your CID back to what it was before you changed it, Lock the bootloader then S-ON, Probably take an hour or so to do, there is a few guides around.
S-off on 1.56 is not working with CM11 or stock Rom.... I was using before 1.55 and with same rom & setting Rumrunner was working & but now after update 1.56 no s-off with Rumrunner ????

Why are you s-on if you used rumrunner ?
Because after I install custom rom you told me guru reset , I got all the OTA then I run guru tool to removed temporary & then I bring back S-On by fastboot oem writesecreflag 3 & then I run again guru tools to bring back lock. So phone was on S-on , locked , un rooted & on stock rom & recovery ....... Like out of box
Just do that to see if I can bring back all normal incase I want to sale this phone later &
after all this I unlock again and instal Custom recovery & restore my Custom rom by recovery restore & all come back like you told me, my setting lock home screen , lock screen , all apps , themes ???
Thanks for your help for back up issue ...
Now the issue is I got update 1.55 to 1.56 hboot & rumrunner , firewater ... revo... etc etc not let me S-off ????

i was running custom rom but decided the blue haze on the camera wasn't doing it for me and turns out htc are able to repair it once i send in
I got to relocked s-on only showing no tampered or anything by flashing ruu
running latest sense rom and hboot 1.56 atm
need to get back to just [locked] showing s-on
this is frustrating me I need help
i unlocked this originally through htc if that matters
You will need s-off to reset the bootloader back to locked instead of re-locked

S-OFF the phone. Then, use the flash the Guru Bootloader Reset zip in TWRP/CWM. From there, you can set it to Locked. But, HBOOT 1.56 has a lot of problems when trying to S-OFF. Its a hit and miss chance. Try using Firewater to S-OFF
