BlackRose has an uninstall option and will replace it's S-OFF HBOOT version with the stock HTC HBOOT 1.13. Depending on which ROM you have installed, this may leave you with a phone that will not boot normally, so the next step after you uninstall BlackRose is to flash a RUU to return to stock.
For HBOOT 1.13, your best bet would be the WWE 2.30.405.1 RUU.

I found this one but my hboot is blackrose and it use a script from alpharevx to downgrade hboot. So will it work with my hboot or should i remove blackrose first and how ?

Sounds like you need to visit the BlackRose thread in the Development section and start reading and learning.

No because the BlackRose will prevent the RUU from overwriting it's S-OFF HBOOT and replacing it with the stock HBOOT.
With both AlphaRevX/Revolutionary and BlackRose you need to 'prepare' the S-OFF HBOOT so that a RUU can overwrite and replace it with the stock HBOOT.

You might want to read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541082
If you read, then you will understand that the RUU you want to execute need to be compatible with both your CID, MID and hboot version.
So yes its possible, but you need to be s-off to change CID/MID and to downgrade hboot if required.
and please don't start 2 different threads for relatively the same questions.
Hope it help

yes, use revone tool for hboot 1.44 or use rumrunner tool for hboot 1.54 and 1.55
This is the first thing listed in the thread I linked above.....
First you need to be S-Off, this will NOT work with S-On!!!
A) If you’re on hboot 1.44 use revone to get S-Off: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2314582
B) If you’re on hboot 1.54/1.55 use rumrunner to get S-Off: http://rumrunner.us/ and http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2487888

I can't answer that cause I'm not familiar with rumrunner since I s-off'd my One when it was on 1.44 hboot with revone. In theory rumrunner 0.5.0 should work on all international variant with hboot 1.54 and up except verizon model that need a different version of rumrunner. Maybe you should ask help directly on rumrunner thread for that step or search the forum for similar issue with s-off on 1.55. Hope you will find out.

I went back and forth with rumrunner and moonshine while using a rom 4.3 GPE ROM with twrp and it kept failing. ultimately installed a 4.1.2 stock then used revone and it worked wonderfully. I was able to remove the tampered flag, unlock the stock bootloader and flash the GPE 4.3 and receive the updates. I also only have a mac so i was limited in not being able to run .exe's.

Tampered flag is just that, a flag. It doesnt hinder anything, just a pop up for "Warranty" purposes. The flag pops up when you unlock the bootloader but when you get S-Off you can remove the flag.
Since you have access to windows i would go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2428276 and find the .exe RUU for your area. Just get into your bootloader, select fastboot usb and run the .exe. Pick the lowest firmware available so you can ensure that you get the 1.44 hboot.

The zip can only be used with S-Off where as the exe is designed to be used to return a phone to stock with S-On.
Just get into fastboot and run the exe, it should do the rest for you. It will wipe the entire phone, but as far as I'm concerned, a blank phone is better than an unusable one.
I'm not sure if the hboot makes a difference, but mine downgraded when I flashed an older RUU.
Once you get the older hboot and firmware, you may have to unlock your bootloader again through HTC Dev, then S-Off. Once your S-Off unlocking your bootloader is much easier.

If you want to run a GPE RUU.exe your phone MUST have CID compatible (BS_US0001) with GPE and MID: PN0712000
you can check that with this command:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
fastboot oem readmid
if they doesn't match, you MUST be S-OFF to change them
If your device is currently a DEV edition, you should already have PN0712000 as MID so the only concern is that CID need to match GPE RUU
You should post your
Code:
fastboot getvar-all
and remove imei and sn so it will be easier to see what options you have.

[Q] s-off htc one m7 hboot 1.55 just not working

Hey guys,
I have searched my ass off to find a solution and i just can't seem to find one.
I have spent more then 8 hours in the past couple of days on it and it is just not working.
My htc one m7 has a cid with tmob101 and I don't even have tmobile as a provider.
The *****es branded it after i inserted the my simcard for 1 day till my new contract whent live.
So what is the situation.
As said i have an HTC One M7 black.
It runs android 4.3.3 and has HBOOT 1.55
it has a cid tmob101 as said above
I also unlocked the phone through htc dev.
I have the single latest version of twrp recovery cause the latest doenst let me connect with adb.
Just not showing anywhere.
So I am running version 2.6.3.3
Besides that i'm still running the stock software (no custom rom or anything).
just the out of the box software.
What have o tried:
well everything i can think of.
1. i tried revone although i knew it would not work. (a man can dream right )
2. tried rumrunners through a live cd of ubuntu 12.04
rumrunners at first didn't want to work at all but now when i run it it gets to the point of "Pouring 8 ..........." and then says plays wait 30 seconds and but the phone , pray and try again.
3. then i tried firewater but that one said right from the start that no amount of hacking would do any good.
i changed permissions, ive tried doing everything through windows and linux alike but it just won't work.
Can someone help?
Please let me know what information you might need or want for you to help me.
I just want to get back to international version.
hope you guys can help

Ok this guy clearly didn't read your post. Is your cid T-MOB010 or T-MOB101?
You can s-off a phone with T-MOB010 cid, I've done so myself on three different M7s. I've used firewater. Most important thing to remember is to disable your antivirus and your firewall. Don't neglect this step.
Is it really hboot 1.55 or is it 1.56?

For either firewater or rumrunner to work, you need a custom kernel. Flash a custom Rom (just go with the older version of Android Revolution HD - Here's V53 which has worked well for me in the past).

Hey sorry for the late answer .
I tried that current running arhd 31 with android 4.3.
Also tried 53 first but didnt work
Running it atm but seems like it's not gonna work
only think i could think of is that i haven't run soju.exe in admin mode just now.
so gonna try that but I don't think it will make any difference

Did you get it to work? I'm stuck on the same issue.
Hboot 1.55 S-On

[Q] Returning full stock: some doubt about what to do

Hi everyone.
I need your help to figure it out about something
I've an HTC One with:
S-OFF
HBOOT: 1.56
CID: HTC__001
Firmware 4.06.1540.2
Bootloader: unlocked
I downloaded an old .exe RUU (RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_HTC_Europe_1.28.401.7_Radio_4A.13. 3231.27_10.31.1131.05_release_310878_signed) because I thought with S-Off I could install any kind of RUUs. I decided to download it because I already used it the last year and because I thought I could get the 1.44 HBOOT after installing it to be able to use Revone to make bootloader locked, tampered out, and S-ON again. When I try to install the RUU.exe, it says that my device is not compatible with that image.
Maybe I can't use it because I've the bootloader unlocked? I hope someone can help me to understand what's going on and what should I do. Thanks everyone

S-OFF Situation with last Firmware & H-BOOT 1.57

Hey guys,
i'm sending my One to htc at the moment and i think i'll get it back in a couple of days with new camera module and a firmware update .
At the moment my HBOOT is 1.4x, the phone was S-OFF via revone and i reversed it back to stock yesterday.
Are there any safe possiblities to S-OFF a 1.57 HBOOT device WITHOUT using htcdev?
From what i've read recently
- Revone isn't supported with HBOOT 1.57
- Firewater can maybe S-OFF but needs HTCDEV unlock and maybe the Bootloader is TAMPERED after that
- Sunshine costs 25 USD !?
So is the conclusion correct that an unlock via htcdev is absolutely necessary to S-OFF atm?
Is it also correct that i can't get rid of the TAMPERED flag when Firewater fails?
Thanks

Once S-Off you can revert the BL back to locked and remove the tampered flag anyway.

That's right but from what i heard some devices can't be S-OFFed with Firewater. Then the device is TAMPERED and you can't get rid of that because S-OFF doesn't work!?

sunshine does not require the bootloader to be unlocked, it does everything for you but like you said costs $25 however, it is a one off payment, after that you don't need to pay again to s-off the same device again.
all other s-off tools require the bootloader to be unlocked via HTC Dev.
if you are on HBOOT 1.56 or 1.57 and firewater fails then sunshine is the only way.

Okay, thank you very much for that!
Sorry for the question but can i install TWRP and flash ROMs via Recovery when just htcdev unlocked and S-ON? On the One X it was necessary to flash the boot.img from a pc. On the One this isn't necessary right?

yes you can flash custom rom's whilst s-on as long as the bootloader is unlocked and also correct, no need to flash the boot.img separately.

Does someone know what devices will fail with firewater? Is it a change in the hardware maybe? My One is from May 2013 so i hope it may work.
There has to be a change between the devices with 1.57 that fail and the devices that work!?

download emmc check from playstore onto your phone, if the number starts with 9001 it will fail.

if you sent your phone back to HTC to get the camera repaired, they will probably replace the motherboard, if they do then firewater probably wont work, all you can do is try.

Okay, i'll wait and report

Dunno if it's different but when I s-offed and unlocked and rooted my HTC one max I used firewater and used temp root method which in turn s-offed and unlocked bootloader which can be done on our highest hboot. I don't no if it's different for you guys but it might not be such a major problem but when I sent my HTC one m7 back for repair when I had it I reverted back to stock and left s-off present they said nothing about it.

if you request them to don't update software they don't do that
If it's camera problem they don't tends to update they don't waste their time if your phone motherboard s off once it can be easily again
