What is the actual problem?
No drivers for 8.1 or script doesn't work?

I tried rum runner and its says at the end failure(I tried many times with different roms) and I think it might be because of Windows.
P.S I have hboot 1.57 on international htc one.
That doesn't have anything to do with windows 8.1. The only issue you might have is with driver signing and you can workaround that by shutting off driver enforcement for when you go to install. After that you can boot normally.

Hi all,
I have been having issues getting Win 8.1 to recognise HBoot? However ADB seems to work? Tried all sort of drivers.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Windows 8.1 only seems to recognise hboot 1.55 and above using the latest htc sync and drivers.
Very strange, oh well looks like I'll have to wait for the official 4.3 update and root from there. Thanks.
Hi, I'm trying to unroot my phone and put it back on stock. However, I have S-On and my PC is on Win 8.1 Pro which makes fastboot broken (i ran fastboot devices and nothing came up. On ADB, it sees my device) so I can't run Rumrummer to give me S- Off. Can't do the RUU because I need to relock my bootloader but to do that, I need S-Off. What can I do to get around all this to get unrooted and stock?
don't remember where in forum I seen it but if you search a bit you can find the drivers for win 8.1. search and read!
edit.....nice post count!!!!

Hahaha just noticed the 666 But I forgot to mention that I did search for the Win 8.1 drivers but in one thread i saw, they used the win 7 64 bit htc drivers to get it to work. Obviously it didn't work for me, so i'll try finding official win 8.1 drivers. I did see a thread about switching the usb 3.0 drivers to the microsoft intel drivers but my pc uses AMD :/ Any links that anyone finds or extra advice and info is appreciated.

Next milestone is 6,666 ? lol. I found a stock rom reset here This should take care of me getting on stock unrooted. Next problem is to get rid of the tampered sign on the bootloader. Gotta be S-off to do that. So many issues with fastboot though. I"ll try running Rumrunner again when i flash this rom. Not sure if hboot is a prob, it's still 1.44. Actually, would going to stock 4.3 unrooted make the fastboot work again so i can run Rumrunner ?

I have heard updating your hboot to 1.55 will allow the drivers to work in fastboot on Win 8.1

I read that too. On Rumrunner, it requires you to have S-off before you can flash the hboot zip. Unless you know another source that can do it without s off.

Hi, I want to flash my HTC One again since some time. I've downloaded the recent synch tool from HTC. Unfortunately I can't get fastboot working if I'm in the Bootloader. Fastboot works if my telephone is on but it doesn't if my htc is in the bootloader.
I need some help.
I'm using Windows 8.1 x64

to use fastboot in windows 8.1 your hboot must be 1.55.000 or up
or 1.54.000 android 4.4 GPE
Try this to get your firmware updated

Thanks for your reply. I would like to know.. is there no other way than that? I don't want to S-Off because I'm afraid to brick my phone.

I am having an issue with my phone in fastboot mode. After changing my CID to GOOGL001 from CWS_001, I was in the process of flashing the GPE RUU, but it got interrupted and it was stuck on the HTC logo for a while. I ended up rebooting the device and now it is unrecognized in fastboot, yet it still works in normal mode. In fastboot mode, it is a black screen instead of the normal white screen. I don't think anything is wrong with my drivers because everything was working alright before. Phone is still fully functional and I would like to either change my CID back to normal or continue with the GPE RUU. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
I have tried using USBDeview to uninstall all drivers and reinstalled all HTC drivers, but I still cant get it to connect on fastboot. Has anyone had a similar issue with their phone or know what I can do?

my guess is that you are using windows 8 or above and your phone is on hboot 1.44.
try with windows 7, linux or mac.

Yeah I am on Windows 8.1, but my phone is on hboot 1.54 if that makes a difference. I will try to get on a computer with windows 7 next weekend when I get home. Really hoping that it works out because this has been stressing me out these past two days.

hboot 1.44 is not compatible with windows 8.1. You can use windows 7, linux (ubuntu) or MacOS

You can try this method using the "old dirty solution", it has worked for some.
