Couldn`t work as you are S-On. I think you`re stuck bro afaik. Maybe someone else knows a solution. Good luck.

That's odd. It shouldn't have run at all since you can't downgrade using a RUU without s-off. It should have prompted a RUU error noting that you were on a later version.
Is your phone rooted and unlocked yet? Did you do anything to it besides run the RUU?

Can't you just use fastboot to push a custom recovery and then sideload a custom or stock ROM?

Looks like his only option. Surprised that the RUU wiped his device before getting the error.
There's no way to downgrade hboot with s-on atm.

I'm gonna be 'that guy'... What the heck were you doing flashing an RUU on S-on with 'limited IT knowledge'...
There's a reason RUUs aren't released. It's to prevent this.
On a side note I would try another RUU download. Where are you getting the error at? What's the phone doing?

I'm wondering now. Did you actually try to fastboot flash the 1.44 WWE firmware.zip in RUU mode despite being s-on? Because if you really did that, the phone is dead. You're getting a signature error because the phone is s-on and you managed to corrupt something important. Being s-on, I doubt there is any way to fix it.
An expensive lesson, but maybe you'll be more careful next time. Gaining s-off isn't worth bricking your phone.

This is confusing as the official RUU's (exe's and zips) will simply not allow you to downgrade the hboot or to flash an older version of the firmware without having s-off so my thoughts are exactly the same as iElvis.
I cannot see how you managed to do what you did.
So questions....
Are you running a custom recovery?
Is your bootloader locked or unlocked?
Have you tried holding vol down and power for about 15 to 30 seconds to see if you can get into the bootloader?
Did you do something like reboot into bootloader, fastboot oem rebootRUU and then fastboot flash zip firmware.zip?
TELL US the exact steps you went through so we can try to help you and worst case scenario you have bricked your phone.

I am having a similar problem only i have S-off but i cant find the right RUU or the right recovery.img to fastboot it .
If you have rumrunner_HTC_0.5.0.zip you could gain s-off very easy .

Sorry m8. Hate to break it to you but I accidentally did this too and I've found no solution for it. Ended up buying a new One...... I don't think there is a fix for this at all.

Please state exactly what is your problem and how you got in the predictament. Also, post a fastboot getvar all and remove the imei and serial number of your device. Your phone is probably different than the previous persons phone.

As for yours, your version-main is all messed up, probably caused by the riffbox, but there was no need to do that, the 155 error you got was just a bad download, try and download this ruu and run it, otherwise, get the firmware for it and flash that first, im basing this info on the radio (baseband) which matches this ruu.
you will need to change the CID to HTC__001 or add superCID to the android-info.txt file before running

HTC One Can't S-Off

Hi Guy's
I am running a HTC one M7, Bought outright in Australia unlocked
-When I first got the phone I got rid of sense and rooted it and loaded up Bigxie Google rom 4.3
-I decided today to try upgrade to 4.4, I made a big mistake and went ahead and did it without S-Offing
-Long story short I had to side load 4.3 again after getting the Bootloop with 4.4 I assume due to no S-Off
After getting the phone back up and running again on 4.3 I have spent the last 8 Hours trying to S-Off
So far I have tried RumRunner, Firewater, temproot then firewater and Revone. All seem to fail or just finish with
no error, Rumrunner mentioned something about an Unsecure Kernel I am running kernel "3.4.10-ge22f38b"
Im running HBOOT-1.54
SuperSU v1.94
CWM 6.0.4.8
Anything you can suggest? is it possible to change kernels and if so what to?

hmm, no version-main.
anyway, hboot and radio would indicate a 2.24 version, so find a custom ROM (such as http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407589210 )
which is rooted and has an unsecured kernel
then try firewater and rumrunner
But please remember S-Off allows you to do a lot of things, including hard-bricking your phone, so do this only if you feel you are good with the idea of S-Off and have done some research about the various components of your phone.
.

Thanks, I will try.
Really the only reason I want S-Off is so I can load
"[ROM][m7]Android 4.4 KRT16S Google Play Edition - Rooted/Busybox/Odexed (11/26/13)"
Seems easy for most users phone but not mine

Hello All!
At first sorry for my bad english but i think you will understand it!
I got a S-off problem to!
My phone is HTC-Dev unlocked and my phone is currently running Viper.
Now i wanted to S-OFF because i wanted to run Android Revolution HD 6.1
Google Edition.
With Firewater i get a error.
With Rumrunner it's keeps running till 8 and stops
With Moonshine its keeps also running till 10 or something...

Just an update, I finally got S-Off, at first I wasn't going to bother with continuing my Quest to S-Off my HTC One after how much difficulty
I had however after having glitchy issues with my Google 4.3 ROM I delved in again and ended up flashing the Latest ViperOne venom Rom, after this I tried RumRunner again and after a while it successfully S-Off'd, now going to retry loading Google 4.4, maybe I should give the Viper ROM a go but I just like the look of the google rom more I think
Thanks a bunch for all the help in this post and the forum

I tried everything i could find to go back to stock. I tried restoring a nandroid backup and then updating, i tried flashing RUU for my devices but that gives me an error everytime. I locked the bootloader and updating but that didn't do anything. I tried Stock ROM – Guru Reset but after OTA update to 4.4.2 the phone doesn't boot anymore.
Must be something i'm missing, there is allot of information about the One M7. Maybe there is a official rom that i could flash and go from there. Just want to have a stock rom with KK.
Thanks in advance.

you cant use the guru-reset file because the version is too low for your HBOOT, the updates are failing causing a boot loop because they are trying to downgrade your HBOOT, not possible with s-on.
the RUU is also a lower version than you are currently running, and as you are s-on, you cant downgrade.
the only way you can get back to stock now is too unlock your bootloader, flash twrp recovery 2.6.3.3 and download stock odexed 5.11.401.10 rom from here: http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.co.uk/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html
flash it through recovery, after its installed and your phone is set back up, if you want to be fully stock, download the recovery from the same page and flash that.

U can used firewater to get S-OFF and then used RUU.zip to return to stock

I will try the solution Seanie280672 recomended. I can't get S-OFF for my device.

s-off is very hard with 1,57 hboot, some people are having success, most arnt still.

Yep. I'm one of those that get this: whelp, this sucks, firewater can not work on your device no amount of reflashing, retrying, or ruuing will fix...
BTW, thank you for your qiuck reply.

Yup, I used to get that message too, I got s-off in the end with a java card by taking my phone to these guys, they also have a mail in service if your in the EU and can live without your phone for a few days:
http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/Unlocking/htc_s-off_service.htm

Well if i can get it stock i will leave it like that. I had so much headache in last 2 days with this phone. :laugh:

Worked like a charm. Seanie280672 thank you! You saved me.:highfive:

change your mid to the Tmo mid using this, flash it in TWRP recovery https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712469376
change your cid to the Tmo Cid T-MOB010
find the corresponding firmware to the RUU you are trying to flash, we do recommend though as you are on an old 3xxxxxx firmware, you first find a 3xxxxxx firmware, then a 4xxxxxx then a 5xxxxxxx and finally a 6xxxxxxx, flash them all 1 at a time and now run the RUU, heres the 3 xxxxx and 4xxxxx ones to get you started: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2355814

Thank you! I did exactly as you said and installed all the firmware files one by one until I got to 6xxxxxxx then I was able to install the tmobile RUU with no problem!
