I currently have my M7 unlocked and rooted, now fancy a try at getting s-off for my M7.
I am currently running the latest Insertcoin rom with the default kernel that comes with it. I've currently tried Rumrunner and Revone that come with the Tookkit from Squabbi but both fail. I am assuming this is because 1.57 is a tricky one to gain s-off.
Anyone had any luck with this verson and running Insertcoin?
Thank you.

With that hboot your best free chance of S-OFF is firewater. I don't know about that combination but you can search the thread and see if someone has made it. It seems each phone is different and what works for one doesn't work for another. If you get the "whelps this sucks..." message then you will need to use sunshine but it cost $25.
Ok, tried the Firewater method, first bottle chugs then I am informed my kernel contains an anti firewater patch. So, I googled around and it shows Elemental as being firewater friendly. I flashed this kernel, tried Firewater and I get the same results.
I am running the latest ARHD and obviously now the Elemental kernel.
Thanks.

use an older rom + bulletproof
you can also check here for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2632351
if you are already on firmware 6.xx, then most likely firewater will fail anyway (even without giving you the "whelp this sucks" message)
Older rom, as in perhaps a Jellybean rom? Sense or aosp?
Yep, on a 6.09 build number.
Thanks.
I tried many different ways to get s-off on HBoot 1.57. All failed.
Only option working is SunShine, which costs me USD$25.
But it is surely fast and effective.
Check your emmc chipset. If it begins with 9001, you won't be able to s-off without Sunshine - if it's any other you should be fine. I managed to s-off with OnePlus One CyanogenMod 11S rom.

Can someone please finally find a way to S-OFF the HTC ONE?
I've tried revone and moonshine and nothing is working.
I'm currently running Android revolution 40.3, TWRP 2.6.3.3, Hboot 1.54

You may need to search VERY hard for something called rumrunner.

hboot 1.54 = firmware 2.xx = ROM based on 4.2
40.3 is already 4.4 and 31.6 is 4.3, it MAY work and maybe it won't.
and "the last part doesn't work" isn't very specific, is it?
Not trying to be an a**, but saying things like "i'm on latest version" doesnt really say much.
Versions usually have numbers for a reason.

Ok, as far as i know not sure if you can s-off while on kitkat..so for the sake of s-offing, flash ARHD 31.6 (ive used this to s-off my device twice on hboot 1.55 and it works) it should work for you too. and for revone and moonshine won't do since you need to use rumrunner for hboots 1.54 and 1.55
Now, im assuming you already have adb set up and know how to use adb and fastboot commands, so go on n check out this thread and then go to www.rumrunner.us and download the universal version 0.5.0 and remember to follow all the directions (most importantly disabling all firewall/antivirus, as this is what plagues most people). and then you should have s-off
thank you, I've tried this again and this time it worked!

Hey guys!!
I've been trying to s-off for a while now and no luck. I've tried firewater and rumrunner multiple times and no luck. I've tried using ElementalX and Bulletproof kernels with different ROMs. I've also tried downgrading to 4.3 and 4.2 ROMs but still the phone refuses to s-off. I have HBoot 1.56 so can't try moonshine or revone.
I have the black AT&T variant HTC One M7. I want s-off to be able to update my phone to newest firmware and am currently on ARHD 81.0.
What are my options?
Use SunShine, pay 25$, and then you will be s-off
I've searched far and wide and tried and tried but cannot get the s-off on my new -to-me HTC one m7 for at&t. I have tried firewater which has given me various results from the "whoops" to opening bottles and whatnot then saying it failed. I have also tried rumrunner. I am currently running insert coin 4.4 with sense 6 and sunshine says I am not compatable. is there any way to maybe downgrade my hboot to 1.55 or something as that seems to be the problem to me. or is there a ROM that runs a Google style android and will work with a rooted s-on device? Thanks

Downgrading hboot require s-off so no you can not downgrade hboot to achieve s-off. If you have tried all the suggested rom/kernel combinations known to work and sunshine is also not working, you might want to try a java card s-off service like proposed at http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/, not sure if it still working on 1.57 hboot, better to ask them before.

You must be on stock Rom-kernel if you want SunShine to work. If you don't have a nandroid backup of your stock Rom then you can install Maximus HD (or a stock Rom) as its closest to stock and then you can come back to your preferred Rom.
Hi, I have just bought an M7 for my daughter (used)
It is now unlocked, rooted and twrp installed. Can't get rumrunner working and after reading advice I installed elementalx kernel. Still no joy.
So biting the bullet I installed sunshine, however it doesn't like my kernel and yes you've guessed, long day, tired and didn't backup.
It's Hboot 1.57, 4.4.3, sense 6 build no 6.09.401.5 (UK, network unlocked)
Tried looking and I can't find the stock kernel to reflash
Plus while I'm here, with this combo is sunshine the only S-OFF option?
thanks in advance.

Sunshine is your best option. But you should try rumrunner or firewater with Bulletproof kernel.
If all else fails flash Android Revolution HD it is custom but it's very close to stock. Especially if you don't install xposed and any other tweaks. Sunshine worked for me on ARHD. MaximumsHd also has success with sunshine.

If you found my posts helpful, Please click thanks :good:
I'm using stock 4.4.3 with ElementalX kernel and Rumrunner does not work for me. It pours 8 times then it says, "Wait 30 seconds, pray, try again" Fast boot is disabled, no lock screen, SuperSU grants all root access, still no hope. People are saying that they used Firewater but its website says they discontinued the work so I can't download it either, any help would be appreciated.
Your viable and most likely option is now sunshine for $25 US if you can't soff with rumrunner. Rumrunner seems to work best with lower hboot, firewater no longer works, and revone is for 1.44.
You can run the test app from their website to see if it will work.
You could also try moonshine or revone, but I don't know if either will work. I used revone with the oldest version of ARHD I could find, and it worked great.
