[Q] HTC One M7 Tampered, Relocked, Security Warning - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Everyone,
I'm a fan of XDA developers. I've solved many small android issues from the tips and tricks I got from XDA. This time it's about my HTC One M7 which is dead from the last 5 months. I've shown it many so called engineers here in Chandigarh but no one could solve the problem. There are many similar threads on internet but I'm looking for a zero to end solution. The problem is that I got my HTC One M7 from Philippines and it worked well since a bad day. I got my software updated over wifi and after two-three days my phone got restarted and got struck on the Bootloader screen with the following message:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** LOCKED ***
*** Security Warning ***

Then I tried some methods and phone started showing Unlocked instead of Locked and then further a friend of mine changed the same to Relocked mode and below is the current status:

The files you need are here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/stock-rom-6-13-707-1-asia-t2879487
while your bootloader is relocked flash the firmware first
you need fastboot / adb folder on a windows PC
Get it here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
to flash firmware you download it and place it in the fastboot folder and rename it firmware.zip
Shut down the phone and hold volume down plus power to get in to the bootloader / fastboot USB
open a command prompt and type
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot
After flashing the firmware the phone may boot up .. if it still hangs continue on
Flash custom recovery
first you have to unlock the booloader @ htcdev.com - just follow the instructions
next you download TWRP 2.8.4.0 here >> http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7
and flash it in fastboot
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now enter recovery ... you should see your phone from your PC
In TWRP choose backup and check only boot or cache something small - this will create the folders you need to copy the Nandroid you downloaded above too.
after the backup, check the sdcard on the phone from your PC, you should see a dir named TWRP
you want to extract the nandroid to TWRP/BACKUPS/YOURphoneSERIAL/backups go here
after you have it copied their go back to the phone and choose restore / you should see the Nandroid you just copied their
choose it and check all the boxes to restore everything (mainly System)
when it's done reboot to recovery / choose Wipe / factory reset / then reboot and your phone should be working again

Sorry for annoying you and i'm not hijacking the op . Mime htc one is in the same situation.

Yes - you flash the firmware / custom recovery from the bootloader screen
after those you will be able to enter TWRP recovery and move on to restoring the Nandroid

Hi,
I'm not able to unlock the bootloader from Relock. As soon as I put in the last details, the phone reboots with pink "Entering Recovery......." lines on the top and doesn't do any thing.
Moreover, below is also an error while flashing the firmware:
target reported max download size of 1514139648 bytes..
What to do??? Stuck again

you can't do anything until the bootloader is unlocked, Unless you can find a RUU that matches your exact software version (not likely)

Hi. I can reunlock bootloader and i installed twrp nobcb. And after that i can't only mount system. At that time, i saw a post that i can flash rom from usb-otg. So i downloaded viperone 7.0.2 and installed. After installing, my htc one in bootloop state and can't get into recovery mode. I flashed twrp 2.7 nobcb, twrp 2.8.3.0 and cwm 6.0.4.3. But nothing works. Ps . I flashed boot.img from viperone rom and erase cache
What should i do now? Active cmdline overflow reappeared. And what rom should i try now? Coz i have a very slow connection.

Several issues - Bootloop, can't unlock bootloader, can't restore to factory..

Hey Guys,
Hoping someone can lend a wee hand :
Got an HTC One from one of my friends to attempt to repair for him, getting nowhere. The symptoms all started when he did an OTA upgrade last night. I'll try best describe the issues :
1. The phone bootloops and almost appears to have factory restored. By this I mean it gets past the initial boot screen, presenting me with an "Android is updating, optimising 1 (through to) of 5 applications".
2. Upon completion of this cycle it will load to the lock screen. I then have roughly 10 seconds of life left until the phone restarts altogether, performing all of the above again.
3. I can't unlock the bootloader at all. It'll load to fastboot easily and stay there for as long as I want, however I've tried to use HTCDev about 20 times using the unlock token they have sent me (several times over) to no avail. The screen gives me the "do you want to continue?" message, I select yes, and it reboots. After rebooting and then going back into fastboot/bootloader, it's still showing LOCKED.
4. Booting it to safe mode gives me about 2-3 minutes of life, however I can't get ADB to load as it won't load USB Debugging or connect properly to the computer in safe mode to push a custom recovery to then try a custom FW.
Any ideas what I can do guys? Thanks in advance.
If it helps, here is the info on the bootloader screen of the screen :

As SaHiLzZ mentioned, send it in for warranty, because even if you get it unlocked and even if you get a stable ROM on it, you will very likely fail to S-Off;
3.62.771.3 H3G__001 and 3.63.111.6 (T-Mo Germany), are two variants that firewater and/or rumrunner don't work with.
So off to the shop! and good luck.
Thanks folks, appreciated! He bought it cause his other One was stolen, but bought it second hand so there's no warranty from a store.
HTC are picking it up tomorrow so hopefully they'll be able to do something
Thanks again!

This is what I am working with.
I have downloaded countless RUU files, both zips on my mac, and EXE on my pc. My theory is that I need to get S-OFF to flash the RUU on my phone. I can't reach recovery nor the rom itself. I always get the signature fails. All the time. Even when I take out a signatured recovery.img file from the RUU and fastboot flash recovery I can't get passed it.
Basically I need someone to help med with the question; How do I get from here to a completely stock rom?
Can someone please help me or even point me in the right direction?

Yep the ruu should work but don't forget it will not remove the tampered flag and will not set the bootloader to Locked instead of Re-locked.
Dont forget that this ruu will update your hboot to 1.56+ and there is no reliable s-off method for this version atm. So you'll be stock rom with a tampered and relocked bootloader with almost no possiblities to s-off atm.

Well I am just happy too see it working again. Have had it like this for the past 2 mounths. So I can wait for a S-OFF for the 1.56.
Thanks for the information though! I have just now downloaded the file. Will test it and report back.

yes but the tampered flag and relocked bootloader will void your warranty if you need to send the device for repair.

Well, in the state my phone is in right now, do I have any other options which maybe keep me in a unlocked state with a possible S-OFF? I just don't see it. Please tell me if you do.

You should flash a custom rom like arhd first and s-off then run the above ruu.
S-off is difficult to achieve atm on hboot 1.56 which will be flashed with the above ruu.
If something goes wrong with your phone and it must be send for repair, you'll need to set the bootloader to ''LOCKED'' not ''RELOCKED'' and remove the ''TAMPERED'' flag which require S-OFF. Then you'll need to turn back S-ON but it will cause the tampered flag to come back if its done on hboot 1.55+ So you'll also need to downgrade your phone to 1.44/1.54 before turning back S-ON, downgrading require S-OFF.
Just in case, its better to S-OFF before running the RUU imo, otherwise you might be stock with a tampered and relocked bootloader for some time.

Okay. It't seemed so hard cause of the signing problems I have had when trying to flash roms through fastboot. My recovery is screwed up and I have tried to flash TWRP on there but it won't let me change any of that stuff. Just signature failure. All the time! Tried the RUU exe file and it got an error saying it was the wrong one for my device..
If you have any suggestions to where I can find a recovery / which rom I would be very happy. :fingers-crossed:

Yes obviously you can't flash a recovery because your bootloader is RELOCKED! you need an unlocked bootloader to flash recovery.
And you can't flash rom from fastboot, only from a custom recovery!
Only an ruu can be flashed from fastboot when the phone is in RUU mode (fastboot oem rebootRUU)

Unlock bootloader
flash the recovery and clear cache:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
push the rom to your sdcard:
boot in twrp
adb push <name_of_rom>.zip /sdcard/
flash the rom:
In twrp select ''install''
chose the rom
swipe to flash
reboot after its complete

Thanks for everything! I have unlocked boot loader and flashed recovery. Launched in twrp and pushed the rom to the sdcard. But when I try to flash from recovery it just fails. Something wrong with cache. I tried to wipe cache / dalwik and do a complete clean install but same problem again. Can't even wipe cache. I will update you with exactly what says if needed.
Edit: This is exactly what it says when I try.
Updating partition details...
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/rom.zip'
Updating partition details
Well never mind the last post. The problem was in safari which always decompresses the zip file before it can be accessed. When I compressed it again and pushed it over to the M7 I got "failed flash" problem. I tried downloading through google chrome instead, the zip was intact, and I was able to flash the rom!
I just want to say thank you for your time and effort in this small problem. It literally took me 30 minutes to get my phone from f**cked to working again. Thank you sooo much! Next time I'm going to ask for help here at the forums instead of just reading myself blind and not getting anywhere.
Sincerely

HELP Soft Bricked HTC One M7 (Sprint) S-ON, No OS, RUU Not Running

So I got my HTC one and rooted it immediately and Installed Cyanogenmod 11. I love Cyanogenmod but my SMS and MMS messages were all screwed up. I booted back up from my backup and noticed that It was running Android 4.3, 4.4 is available so I tried to install the update, It failed so I realized this must be because I was rooted so I went about going back to stock HTC Sense. I relocked the bootloader and ran RUU but the program crashed. After that I was only able to get to the fastboot page, recovery would crash. I ran a few different verisons of RUU but each one failed (error 155 being most prevalent). I unlocked my bootloader again and cyanogenmod started to boot up but never got through. I wipe data and cache. CM still won't boot. I reflashed the CWM recovery and tried to load the back up that I had. I get multiple errors about not being able to mount /system, /cache everything. I installed TWRP and tried to do sideload, not working. I have a USB OTG cable and I tried to load files that way, no good. I don't have S-Off and I can't boot into a rom so I can't get S-Off. I've exhausted google, not sure what to do now. Here is a breakdown.

How did you get it to have no OS? If the phone is off and you first hold down the volume down button then the power button (keep them pressed till the screen lights up). Make sure that you've also had it charged.

[Q] M7 softbrick (or not?) - help needed!

Hi guys!
I've been trying to get my dear One M7 alive now for 4-5 evenings. Really thought it was bricked for good, but finally made some progress. Here's what happened:
S-OFF, rooted since always but on stock/OTA from HTC. Been updating through OTAs just flashing back stock recovery before update and then switching back. I've been using CWM. I was already on the Lollipop 5.0.2 with Sense 6.0 (sofware revision 7.19.401.2) but received another minor OTA couple of weeks ago. Didn't make note of the new revision, nor the reason for the update but just followed my usual steps. Everything seemed to go as usual, but once booting back up after the update the phone got stock on the boot animation (the htc one w/beats audio just after the sound).
Immediately tried a restore from a backup I have, but continued in the same situation. Tried several/different wipes (even the data partition in the end), but no luck. Tried the best I could to search for info, but all I could find was what I'd already done. Tried to download some RUU's but the files seems corrupted and I cannot get it working. I tried to switch to TWRP, taking a new backup (of my restored, but still not working CWM-backup). Same situation. Then I tried to flash a Cyanogenmod version, and was close to giving up when it didn't work as well. Luckily I tried a couple of times more (perhaps after throwing the phone in the wall a few times) and just out of nowhere it suddenly booted and seems to be working normally. Full of hope I tried a restore again, but back to boot animation. Tried to download a clean stock install file I found on XDA with the same version as mine, but just get stuck again. Once I restore the Cyanogenmod backup, it boots perfectly.
Perhaps I am missing something obvious, but I've been doing these things for many years know (starting with the Desire @ nikez), and this just seems odd. I could seriously need some help to get it back working again as I like the stock Sense 6.0 with Lollipop.

I have installed fastboot,adb(not working properly) by sdk tools on windows 7 32 bit pc and also htc sync manager and latest java.
I request you to reply me as soon as possible as i have just lost my all the patience doing all the methods suggested on the like fastboot,etc and
typing the commands.You are my last hope,please help me.

@alray - that freaking worked like a charm! Thanks a lot, a donation is on it's way, really thought my beloved phone was gone.
Installed the RUU version 7.19.401.22 as indicated, and that did the trick. I got an error message about HBOOT while flashing it, tried it twice since I saw it mentioned in several threads but the message continued. However, the phone booted normally afterwards so I couldn't care less right now
Code:
FAIL90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately
FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)
For "hboot-preupdate" response, restart the same procedure for device XXXX.
Also tried desperately to restore the data partition from my cwm backup, but then the phone wouldn't boot again. Last resort now will be to manually restore some of the apps through Titanium from my cwm - but what the heck, lost data is better than lost phone.
Although a minor update, seems like HTC did some serious changes since a lot of the normal stuff doesn't work. Any idea of what??
Anyways, thanks again - really appreciated!

Hi @rakeshrinawa,
I should probably leave it to the pro's to help you out, but I would suggest the following (sure somebody will correct me if I'm on thin ice here):
- Boot into fastboot, open a command prompt and write "fastboot getvar all". Then you'll see the same variables that I posted above, amongst other the version of your software, your CID and some other information that might be useful for the guys helping.
- Look at the selection posted by @alray here http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/general/lollipop-ruu-zip-small-collection-t3053944 (either first or second post).
- You need to find the RUU that fits your phone (correct CID and version), and keep in mind the note in the top:
When you update you must go one step at a time. For example if you are on 6.xx.xxx.xx then you can flash 7.xx.xxx.xx . But if you are on 5.xx.xxx.xx then you cannot flash the 7.xx.xxx.xx you must first flash a 6..xx.xxx.xx.

- The trick is to find the right file, but I'm not the right guy to tell you which one. Once you have it, just follow the "How to flash" instructions step by step and hopefully you'll have an almost new phone again just like I had.
- I see your S-ON, so take note of the instructions saying you need to relock the bootloader (item 4 in How to flash). Or perhaps you could just as well S-OFF it ​
I am sure it's possible to solve your issue, keep on trying! Good luck!

hello sir,
I have htc one m7 sprint manufactured in new zealand.The problem started when I by mistake deleted all the partitions like delvin cache,system,internal
storage,etc in the factory reset option of the bootloader.My phone has unlocked bootloader and latest twrp installed before the problem occurred and android
version 4.2 installed which i think has been deleted as it says when rebooting from the bootloader and it rebooted normally just stucks at hTC logo.
I have installed fastboot,adb(not working properly) by sdk tools on windows 7 32 bit pc and also htc sync manager and latest java.
I request you to reply me as soon as possible as i have just lost my all the patience doing all the methods suggested on the like fastboot,etc and
typing the commands.You are my last hope,please help me.
Htc one bootloader details are:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***

Relock your bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem lock
and flash the old sprint ruu:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip ruu_m7_wls_jb_50_sprint_1.29.651.10.zip
fastboot flash zip ruu_m7_wls_jb_50_sprint_1.29.651.10.zip
fastboot reboot
Then you should update your phone to latest version before unlocking the bootloader, flashing a custom recovery/rom (if you are planning to)
thanks for your reply dear
@alray
Actually this is the only info my bootloader is showing as I have formatted data in the factory reset option.The model no of the phone is PN072(SPRINT) and before this problem,ANdroid 4.2 was installed and now i have installed TWRP 2.6.3.0 and again formatted data and now adb sideload is not working,kindly suggest me the correct softwares which can make my htc one m7 work and do my normal things and can u send me step by step list of softwares to be installed like twrp and adb on my pc as i have 32bit windows 7 on my pc.
Thanks a lot for your reply dear friend and you guys are just amazingly helpful.Keep it on.

I think i have the wrong version of twrp on my phone so adb sideload is not working and i just download your files and simply flash them and will they make my phone work even when i have performed format data and by factory reset in the bootloader?

Step you need to do posted above
RUU also posted above
you'll also need adb / fastboot either by downloading the android sdk (SDK Tools only) or minimal adb and fastboot
Save the ruu in the same folder you have installed minimal adb and fastboot or if installed the android sdk, make sure the ruu is in \Android SDK Tools\platform-tools.
Start a command prompt: Start menu --> program --> minimal adb and fastboot --> minimal adb and fastboot.exe or if using the sdk, go to \Android SDK Tools\platform-tools hold shift and right click in the folder and select "start a cmd prompt here".
Reboot your phone in bootloader / fastboot usb mode (make sure "fastboot usb" is shown in red)
then type:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
This will relock your bootloader, required to flash the ruu
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
once rebooted in ruu mode (black screnn with silver htc logo):
Code:
fastboot flash zip ruu_m7_wls_jb_50_sprint_1.29.651.10.zip
First flash will report "flush image again immediately, so do the same command again:
Code:
fastboot flash zip ruu_m7_wls_jb_50_sprint_1.29.651.10.zip
Wait for the ruu to flash then when you see sucessful message:
Code:
fastboot reboot
HI
@alray
I have HTC ONE M7 sprint variant with model no.PN072 which supports both gsm and cdma and I Was not able to use wcdma or 3g mode when using Android version 4.2.
So keeping all these things,and spending 10 hours in downloaading your files,will they work on my htc and won't create future problems like in google updates etc?

Its says signature verify fail because you are trying to flash a rom (stock odexed) using fastboot, you must flash this rom using a custom recovery which will require to unlock the bootloader again so the simplest is to keep your bootloader relocked and flash the RUU

lol I think we have some communication issues here :laugh:. The RUU is in the same thread you linked me at post #10. All sprint RUU are listed at the beginning of that thread (in the first few lines of the OP), you need the 5.03.651.3 RUU, download it and lauch it (double click, its an .exe file). Make sure your phone is in bootloader when you launch the ruu.

So this is the broken phone you was planning to buy like you have explained in your other thread, why creating a new thread for this? You already have one with post #2 reserved by yourself for this purpose....
"your friend" probably relocked the bootloader with a custom recovery/rom installed. The phone can't boot custom software when the bootloader is locked. You'll have to unlock the bootloader or flash a ruu.
If a custom recovery was installed you'll probably not be able to unlock it since the unluck process requires the stock recovery installed on the phone.
This phone is s-on so you can only flash ruu same or newer version as the current version installed and unfortunately there is no ruu for this version. There's a way to bypass this but you'll need a custom working custom recovery......
Let's try to unlock your bootloader first using htcdev.com then report in your original thread and close this one.

The bootloader is locked, you can't flash the recovery partition on a locked bootloader.

Edit2: I tried unlocking the bootloader, but when i selected "YES", it got stucked on a screen with 3 androids and when i pressed the power button it vibrated. I will try again but i will give it some time, and i will tell you if it will work.
Alray's right, the problem seems quite difficult to walk around. Maybe you can send the phone to http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk I'm almost certain they'll figure out a way to fix it.
You can try to unlock the bootloader.. That ruu is unlikely to get you out of this mess cause it seems you're on a newer firmware version. But again, it won't hurt to try.. especially at this stage.
