[Q] How to get back S-ON without fastboot usb :) - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
First of all sorry in advance for my bad english
It's first time i post in xda for asking help.
Actual state of my phone :
- charge only when is power off
- when power on, no usb connectivity at all
This issue for usb connectivity appears one day without a logical reason, after some messages like "your phone is running in usb host mode and can't charge etc.." , "your phone charger is not original .." (despite he is)
Of course i have already test in furthers pc and usb cables, already clean the usb connector, already test the stuff like push power + vol up + vol down during 2 mins in front of bright light for reset the battery... My other phone an HOX is running well in usb with the same cable and pc (mtp, adb, fastboot..) so this not the way to solve my issue. I think it's a material issue on the mainboard or the usb connector.
So i've decided to get back my HTC One to repair center but for warranty i manage to get it back to completely stock of course.
So, i set it S-OFF with revone (initial hboot 1.44 inside, very good tool for this hboot works like a charm), for delete "tampered" and set "locked" instead of "relocked" in bootloader.
After that, i have make all the updates and now i am on stock branded rom SFR (vodafone in France) up to date with original recovery and 1.57 hboot.
But i am still S-OFF and can't return the phone for warranty like that
So, somebody here have a great idea to get S-ON without fastboot usb who isn't working anymore on my device ??
I have one idea but really complicated : make an update.zip for downgrade the hboot to 1.44 with the original recovery + root (SU+binaries) with that i could try to use an old version of revone (0.2) which permit to use ./revone -s 3 as fastboot oem wirtesecureflag 3
And i don't know if i can do that with original recovery... but my S-OFF could perhaps help me in my bad situation i hope
Thansk in advance for all your ideas to help me to get back S-ON

I could not find a way to go S-ON without fastboot except revone. You could just take the chance that with it "Locked" and no "Tampered" banner they may not care if it is S-OFF. IMO, it would be the safer route than attempting something that might brick the phone in the wrong configuration.

You should have gone back to s-on before updating the software. If you go back to s-on now you risk the tampered flag returning. You need to set back to s-on before hboot 1.55 to avoid this.
I think your best option as @majmoz suggests is to send it as is with s-off. There more likely to ignore the fact that it's a-off than if its s-on with tampered. :good:

If you found my posts helpful, Please click thanks :good:

Thank you majmoz and danny201281 for your advices.
I know that i should use revone when i was under 1.44 hboot.. but now it's too late
I think i will try to send to warranty like that, i share your opinion it's less risky like that than with tampered and relocked ! So i will no more try to get S-ON with fastboot, if it's for have the tampered flag that will be worst
And HTC must have furthers returns for HTC ONE with the same issue like mine (i google it and many peoples have the no usb connectivity issue in average 1 year after purchase it's strange..)
Next one will be a Samsung phone, sorryt HTC
I will comme back for getting news about warranty and S-OFF of course, if it can help some others.

HTC VIVID bootloader will not unlock

Default HTC VIVID
Ok im new not sure where to post this question. Im new to androids and my htc vivid is giving me a headache have read countless threads and posts and still stumped.
***LOCKED***
HOLIDAY PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT - 1.85.0025
MICRO OP - 0360
openADSP - v 02.6.0.2226.00.0202
eMMc - boot
march 1 2012, 17:09:49
Thats what my hboot reads. I have followed directions to unlock bootloader and everything went smooth got file in email and everything then when phone asks me to unlock bootloader i press power on phone to select yes and phone turns off and have to take out battery and reinsert into phone to get back into bootloader and still says locked at top. My os is messed up so i tried doing ruu thing it just keeps saying booting into bootloader and stays like that for thirty minutes. Fastboot program recognizes phone so im not sure what im doing wrong or if phone is too messed up or what. Need some help wopuld be greatly appreciated.
My bootloader did not wanted to be unlocked too.
Until i gain S-OFF...
Prerequisites
- Must be on a stock ROM
- Must be HTCDev unlocked
- Must be rooted
Thats what says requires these things to do the s-off, with the hasoon allin one toolkit for s-off. I am not rooted and when i do the HTCDev unlock my phone wont reboot so i have to take out battery just to get into hboot. So my question is how am i supposed to go about that if I cannot even meet the prerequisites. Or is there another way to s-off. Also if I go ahead and try it anyways is it gonna make this phone totally not usable?
Well now its been two days and my phone wont boot into hboot or anything says its charging then go to boot into hboot and light keeps flashing like its dead. Even bought an oem cable and charger for it and same thing. Gonna buy new battery and go from there i guess.
Ok well got new battery can get into hboot now but that is it. All the same things going on!!! WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME???

Stuck in bootloader, please help!

hi everyone,
I'm new here but right now I'm at my wits end here...
Backstory: I rooted my One and installed a ROM on it. However, a problem with the mic suddenly cropped up. Calling has been a pain and people say that they can hardly hear me. Speakerphone, however, works but it's annoying and inconvenient if I turn on my speakers every single time.
I decided to contact HTC again and asked for a replacement. I told them that there is something wrong with the mic of the phone. They were able to placed an on-site replacement. However, after 2 days, they sent me back an email saying that the problem lies "outside of the warranty" and the charge to get it back to working condition is $200. I thought it was ridiculous so I googled around and most on xda forums said that it is a hardware problem not a software one so I figured it's not a ROM problem.
So yesterday, when I got the phone back, it is unrepaired and worse, the volume buttons do not work at all...I am reluctant to send my phone back to HTC again because I know they will say that it is "out of warranty".
Stupid as I was, I tried to relock my One and S-On it again in order so that I can send my One back to HTC.
However, my One is stuck in bootloader mode.
On the top it says "Tampered", "LOCKED", and "Security Warning"
The HBOOT is 1.56 and it is S-ON.
The thing is, the volume buttons DO NOT work so I can't get into recovery mode using the normal method.
I can still use fastboot commands but the fastboot reboot command always send me back into the bootloader mode which is annoying. Because I can't get into recovery mode I can't use adb commands. So now, I think my phone is softbricked.
Would anyone be so kind and guide me through this? If anyone could help me I would be forever grateful.

Really bad idea to S-ON on hboot 1.56. S-ON must be done on hboot 1.44 or 1.54 otherwise tampered flag will come back. + its really hard to s-off on hboot 1.56 and in some case its not possible. So you'll have to S-off and downgrade then remove the tampered flag, lock bootloader and s-on (hboot 1.44-1.54 only).
To boot in recovery you can use adb reboot recovery from the OS. if you can't boot inside the OS, I think you are stuck.

I know My phone was S-Off at the beginning of the "re-locking" process but as I followed the guides on Youtube, it had to be S-On and Locked again. I know it's a stupid move from my part
I can't do any adb commands because I'm stuck in the bootloader. adb devices returns no devices so i can't reboot into recovery.
Is there any fastboot command that will boot into recovery?
Which sucks the most is that the volume buttons do not work at all so yeah I'm pretty hopeless right now unless someone can miraculously come up with something to help
As of right now yes I'm hopelessly staring at the white screen on my phone...

HTC One M7 S-OFF (Fault USB)

Hey,
Looks like I've got the faulty USB not charging, connection problems, car mode, usb host mode and whatever other funny things that happen so it is warranty time for me.
Seeing as I am unable to connect the phone to the PC via USB (it starts up and stops, disconnects, etc) I cannot do the S-OFF to remove tampered and unlocked flags. What's funny is that it stays connected via fastboot mode.
Is there another way to do this? I've looked at the WIFI ADB but firewater would not work.
It needs to be restored to an AUS CID TELST001, which is firmware number x.x.841.x... there are no RUU's that I can find.
Thanks.

I should note that it has already once been S-OFFed... is there a command I can enter to reinstate it instead?
S-ON was done by "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3"

If you can not get the USB connection to work, then there is not much you can do. Since, you went back to S-ON there isn't any way to change the TAMPERED tag or back to LOCK without S-OFF! You might be able to find someone to force S-OFF using java card but I'm not sure they will be able to perform the procedure without a working USB port. Sorry!
Try another usb cable..it solved my problem though..
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Free mobile app
Try with SunShine new s-off method. Works like an apk without cables. But it's 25$.

Even if you Soff, still need that USB port working for rest of stuff, no?

No I managed to remove tampered and unlocked using wifi adb. But I needed to remove root so unlocked it again without thinking and the tampered flag came back.
Doesn't matter now though... Took it in to telstra shop, took one look at it and said no due to physical damage. It was dropped 6 months ago but it didn't affect anything. They will do anything to get out of it, even though it seems to be a defect (assistant told me he also had the usb problem).
I've taken it to a phone repair shop and should get it back tomorrow.

I don't think you can actually go to S-ON without the PC. However, you can get back to stock rom and recovery with a nandroid backup. You can even LOCK your phone using GURU Bootloader Reset Tool. Then you could send it in and hope they don't notice or care that it is S-OFF.

[Q] HELP to reset - Mobile without USB, without WIFI, S-on

Hi everyone
Hardware problem for me! :'[
Going from: Android_Revolution_HD-One_4.0_GE + S-on + Twrp 2.8.4.0 + USB KO hardware + WIFI OK
to :
Rom backup (restor) Orange France + S-on + Twrp 2.8.4.0 + USB KO + Wifi KO (bad firmware)
Right now my phone is almost useless because my WiFi can't be activated or set in the advanced settings. The backup rom (Orange) is really not efficient. I need to reset it totally to bringing it to my vendor for a repair assistance (microphone KO + USB KO + camera in purple colour).
Impossible to use Fastboot ADB because of the USB default.
I need your help PLEASE.

Under android system, I can only access the data through bluetooth (very slow) and 3G datas.
Under the bootloader, I can only access the data that I have been copied in the internal SD partition.
Please, what should I do now?
First of all we need
fastboot getvar all
Or version main atleast
As you installed ARHD Rom version main may be changed
You have 4.1.2 so it's 1.29.xxx.x or 2.24.xxx.x series you have to find out what is xxx.x for Orange France according to your CID then find a ruu or reset Rom zip or nandroid backup @ htc1guru.com
Then you can restore original Rom
Then make it S Off with moonshine or rumrunner tools
Then remove Tempered and set it Locked
Then you can give it back for repair
Second way is install ARHD again and try rumrunner S Off

You might try Guru Reset 2.24.73.1 to at least reset your rom back to something you can work with. Follow yatindroid's instructions to fully return back to stock.
Thank you Yatindroid and Majmoz
Well "fastboot getvar all" can't be processed since fastboot works with the bootloader (need the USB). AND SORRY it's my bad, the CID is ORANG202.
Anyway, I have done some update since yesterday
1 - Fortunately, I find out in my computer my old ARHD, thus I upload it to my phone with my "almost dead orange stock" via bluetooth. 400MB in 2 hours, not too bad hehe.
2 - Flashing ARHD4.0_GE successfully with TWRP. Finally could use my WiFi !
3 - With the WiFi, I have downloaded "HTC One MaximusHD 11.0.0" rom directly with into my phone, because it is an 4.2.2 Android base which is required to use HTC one Toolkit
4 - Reflashing "HTC One Maximus" with success. Checking Wifi OK. (why didn't I flash this before, because I'm stupid lol)
5 - Installing ADBwifi and SuperSu via Play Store
6 - Connecting my phone to my computer with ADBwifi , then opening "Htc one Toolkit" on my computer to S-OFF my phone
7 - Checking the status S-OFF and Unlocked in the bootloader, success
8 - I am (right now) downloading "Guru Reset M7 2.24.73.1" for Orange brand
I will flash it directly through TWRP, but I'm wondering if after the flash etc, is there a way to S-ON without fastboot in USB?
Thanks again.

A - if I should "UNtempered"' first with guru-reset-bootloader ?
B - after flashing "Guru Reset M7 2.24.73.1 ", should I do an OTA update to have a clean firmware with no "red-flag" (this build is for develop...)? Or is it useless because the "red-flag" won't show up?
C - will it be possible then to use "HTC one Toolkit" again to LOCK the bootloader and to go back S-ON?
D - I have never used "moonshine or rumrunner". Would it be an advantage compare to "Htc one Toolkit" to process all until success?
Thanks again.

Great link thank you!
The thing here is I read different notices :
- In your Major guide revision 8th February 2014 > RUU.ZIP section :
"Step 1: let's get rid of TAMPERED (if it's there) and set back to LOCKED (not relocked)
Step 2: Step 2: Flash your RUU.zip"
- In Guru website http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/ > Stock Guru Reset :
"Remember in order to be able to flash a recovery (stock or otherwise) your bootloader needs to be UNLOCKED.. So if you want to flash the stock recovery during the install you will need to make sure to have a unlocked bootloader."
So, my question is : should I LOCK or LEAVE UNLOCK the bootloader before to flash the RUU reset zip ?
Sorry if I misread..

Leave bootloader UNLOCKED
Download to your phone the GURU Bootloader Reset Tool
In TWRP install the GURU ROM Reset and select Stock Recovery & Radio
Do Not exit TWRP
Goto the Install Button and Install the GURU BootLoader Reset Tool and follow the directions select remove Tampered and Locked when complete
Reboot to Bootloader and check to see if Tampered is removed and it is Locked
If you have removed or copy all of your personal files and data then you can perform a factory reset while in Bootloader. This will wipe your internal SD-card.
Now to return to S-ON
Code:
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
reboot 3 times and make sure it doesnt say "tamper detected - rebooting" and then shows TAMPERED again

Goto the Install Button and Install the GURU BootLoader Reset Tool and follow the directions select remove Tampered and Locked when complete
Reboot to Bootloader and check to see if Tampered is removed and it is Locked
If you have removed or copy all of your personal files and data then you can perform a factory reset while in Bootloader. This will wipe your internal SD-card.
Now to return to S-ON
Code:
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
reboot 3 times and make sure it doesnt say "tamper detected - rebooting" and then shows TAMPERED again

Very clear ! THANK YOU so much.
I've just noticed this point below:
[*]Now to return to S-ON
Code:
fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
For the last point, let me know if I could do it differently using "Htc one toolkit" instead (after all your first points)? Because I cannot perform any fastboot command since my USB is dead. ADB only works into windows OS. I mean by that, will I have full access to "HTC one toolkit commands" after flashing RUUreset + UNtampered + Locked?
10:34 pm - Still downloading the RUUreset. 59% ........
11pm - Now almost 96% ......... Well meanwhile I am waiting the download to be finished, I have read many different post in different forums. Some people state that we are not forced to go back S-ON to return the phone to warranty. Is it true? They indicate that the phone should have an official rom and be bootloader locked only.
11:20pm - I've done it! Great success!
- Flashing the GURUreset (with installing root supersu option, just in case I would need it later for S-ON)
- UNtampered + Bootloader Locked
- Rebooting 3 times to check the correct status
- Booting my Orange system
- Checking various settings (wifi, bluetooth, 3G/4G, my internal Datas, can access OTA update...), everything is working
11:25pm - Just waiting your advise for S-ON without fastboot commands. Furthermore, should I need S-ON or is it useless for the warranty?

I have never used the HTC One Toolkit so I don't know if it will work or not. As far as S-OFF and warranty is concern I have read on the forum that it sometimes doesn't matter as long as it it LOCKED and no TAMPERED banner on stock rom and recovery. Which ever way you decide make sure you do a factory reset to completely wipe your internal drive and any tell tale programs you don't want someone to see. Sorry I can not be more help!

Well, do not worry, your help is very great actually
I'm about to try the S-ON in "HTC One Toolkit". If no success I will leave the phone S-OFF and will do a Factory Reset as you noticed me.
Thank you again!

in most countries htc don't look for S On / S Off if hardware fault they look only unlocked and tempered
if very known issue like htc one camera purple tint they don't even care about unlocked also
but carriers are different story because they send back to htc so carriers take precaution
this depends on carriers
if you still worried about having s off again ask your service canter to not update your phone they won't and on same software you can s off easily !!

Definitely agree with you Yatindroid According to different sources, carriers make the deal more complicated, and it is the same here in France :silly: With the same remaining time of warranty, sending back our mobile phone to HTC after-sales service, is easier than to bringing back to our carriers.
For the first choice, we pay the shipping charges. Then HTC tiers-maintainer, most of the time, doesn't care and fix the problem .
For the second choice, the shipping coast is for the carrier. Besides, those companies are eager for saving money, thus before to ship the mobile to tiers-maintainer, they try to look an find any "contractual fault" avoiding the warranty (S-OFF, unlock, etc).
Thus, I have decided to leave my phone S-OFF since I'm 100% full stock, UNtampered and Locked and I will send it to HTC.
Thank you so much for all your helps.
My phone is now :
***locked***
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID-ORANG202
hboot-1.44.0000
radio-4D.17.3250.14
opendsp-v26.120.274.0202
eMMC-boot
may 5 2013
Factory reset
USB dead + microphone dead + main camera purple
To summarize,
1 - with your computer (my WiFi is 'rom system' Ko on my phone), find and download a 4.2.2 rom such as "HTC One MaximusHD 11.0.0"
2 - transfer your rom via bluetooth from the computer to the phone (long process depending of your rom size)
3 - flash the rom in your phone with TWRP at least the 2.7 version
4 - boot the phone system, check if the wifi connection works (now MY WIFI IS OK) and leave it activated, install superSU and ADBwifi
5 - with your computer, find and download "HTC One Toolkit" (HTCOT) 1.9.3 version or more, launch it
6 - start ADBwifi on your phone (green colour), open a CMD window on your PC, change directory to 'HTCOT' and do : adb connect [IP of your phone]:5555 (you should see "connected", if not try again...)
7 - I did push revone before, thus I assume that you already have a root phone... So, with 'HTCOT', do the "revone S-OFF" steps. Should see SUCCESS if not retry ('HTCOT' only work for 4.2 android rom and some 4.2.2 such as MaximusHD 11)
8 - When rebooting in bootloader, be sure to see "tampered + unlocked + S-OFF", if so reboot your phone system, connect wifi
9 - 2 IMPORTANT DOWNLOADS from your phone - "GURU RESET M7 xxxxx" rom corresponding to your CID (for me CID-ORANG202 thus I downloaded Guru Reset M7 2.24.73.1) + "Guru reset bootloader" (! you need both files from htc1guru.com !)
10 - In TWRP, Flash "GURUresetM7xxxx" rom with options : wipe all + installing root (if need later) + stock recovery + radio. ! When it's done, STAY IN TWRP (thanks to MAJMOZ)! (Do step by step slowly here because the software could freeze)
11 - In TWRP still, install "Guru reset bootloader" with options : remove tampered + lock the bootloader (Do step by step slowly here because the software could freeze)
12 - Reboot in bootloader and check the status ***Locked***
13 - Go to fastboot, then ONLY IF YOUR USB IS NOT DEAD - do a "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" to S-ON your phone
14 - Reboot in bootloader 3 times and check that you read ***Locked*** + S-ON (no sign of tampered and unlocked). For those whom the USB is dead, you are still S-OFF of course :crying:
15 - Boot your carrier android system, if you need to backup your personal data, do it... then reboot to bootloader and do a factory reset (you will lose everything)
16 - Send your phone directly to HTC after-sales service for warranty repair if S-OFF or to your carrier support if S-ON (depending of your country)
LAST STEP :
I wish to confirm you in few weeks if S-OFF is a big deal for HTC after-sales service
