Hey,
Just wanted to know if I could relock the bootloader on a HTC One because since I unlocked the bootloader and rooted my HTC One I am unable to update the device to Android 4.2.2 even though i have received the update it download's the update completely but doesn't continue with the installation process... Also on the screen that comes up when you continually hold down the volume down and power button at the same time I see a message that says TAMPERED ... so if you could please let me know hoe I could relock the bootloader or even help me in a way you think I could resolve the issue it would be great ...
Now I also do not want to unlock the bootloader nor root my older HTC One X because of this issue... But if you think its not an issue please provide me some link/help ...
Thanks in advance :good:
you need stock recovery and stock kernel for the update to work,
or just follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2423683
if you are on 4.1.2 at the moment i recommend you S-OFF the device before updating, because you will not be able to later

What happens when you go to the boot loader (the place it says relocked) and select recovery?

Since it says TAMPERED and UNLOCKED, somebody obviously unlocked it using HTCdev. I see you still have hboot 1.44 so you can s-off using revone and return it completely to stock.
BUT if you're new at this you shouldnt do it yourself, perhaps a friend of yours could help you out.

It's reasonable that's the store root it ? what interest they have for this ?

I have no idea why the store would do that, definitely not in their best interest. You should probably take it back to them and let them return everything to stock.
Hi,
I just got my phone back from repairs and I'm trying to get S-OFF. Naturally, the repair centre updated it to 4.0.4 and hboot 2.02, so I have to downgrade to HBOOT 1.13 in order to S-OFF using revolutionary.
I've followed the main downgrading guide stickied, (unlock bootloader, change main version number and run downgrade RUU) and everything is fine up to the point of running the RUU - it just stays at the "Sending..." screen (screenshot). I've waited up to an hour and it still seems to be stuck at "Sending...".
I googled around and searched xda and I found people saying I needed to have a locked bootloader with fastboot oem lock, didn't change anything and still stuck at sending (it's not frozen, the little dots are moving but it's not doing anything).
Help!
Bump?
Solved, I just let it sit for 3 hours in a row. Not sure why, but it must have just taken a long time to send.

This thread is just for lollipop 5.x M8WHL (sprint) based on SENSE roms
LET'S START
1 - unlock bootloader from htcdev.com
2 - flash TWRP HERE
3 - ROOT your device by flashing SuperSU v2.45
4 - flash 1-HtcOMADM_SPCS.zip and then flash 2-HtcOMADM_SPCS.zip
5 - Install SIM unlock helper.apk and do as usual
If the signal didn't appear do the last step in this thread which is number 6 -
So you get it , hope it works for you . :good:

Via TWRP press Mount and mount system , now go back to advanced and file manager
In file manager go to system/app/HtcOMADM_SPCS and delete a file called .fota_apk

I'm running 4.4.4, when i clicked start in the sim unlock helper, nothing shows up. What do i need to do?
not working on lollipop....
Tested with your method and it didn't work but this did work

I tried it and it worked. Just need to flash Kitkat and restore back the Lollipop after unlock.
hi , i needhelp with my htc m8 sprint
hi, i need help i got an HTC M8 sprint lollypop, from ebay i live in northern Baja In mexico , and i wanted to use it down here, i got an unlocking code but it does not ask for it, i have taken it to some shops that unlock cellphones but they cant do it
i love this phone but if i cant make it work i will have to re sell it,
can some one help???? many thanks
I have the same problem as arunkarnwal1981. I get the vdm client not responding error even after renaming the file in question (does it have to be deleted entirely?).
Also, SIM Unlock Helper just says "This device is not a Sprint HTC One." Odd, this is from an RUU dowloaded from HTC's site. So all I've got is a phone with the vdm client broken, whatever that is. Android is 5.0.2, Lollipop.
Oh - there's a brief message after "This device is not a Sprint HTC One." It reads invalid device htc-m8whl.
check my thread for complete Sim unlock on lollipop without s-off

htc m8 sprint,bootloader unlocked,s-off
hi there i tried this but it did not work, i have a htc m8 from sprint it has android 5.0.2
and i too want to use it out side of the US, mine its ROOTED,BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED,AND S-OFF, can you help me , it still does not accep my sim card....thank you
Well, it generates the vDM Client has stopped unexpectedly error as soon as I install the .zip. I'm running HTC's RUU of Lollipop 5.0.2.
And then the unlock helper says "This device is not a Sprint HTC One!" Process fails for me.
simple solution, works 100%
if u r on lollipop 5.0.1 or 5.0.2 on htc m8 sprint follow below steps to unlock ur phone
Unlock Bootloader
Flash TWRP RECOVERY
Flash Sim Unlock Zip file
Install Stock Rooted Deodexed 4.4.4 zip Rom file
wipe cache, dalvik cache and reboot phone, it will take some time to boot but hv patience...
Turn On the phone
Install sim unlock apk
Open and press 3 dots menu button and then wait for super user permission to be granted...
press back button and then start button... congo u will get ur sim unlock option at bottom of the page... reboot and then done... if u get vdm error then copy htc omad... file to system/apps and try again changing permission.. it really works i unlocked mine successfully...
In available networks I get an error message
Hi all. I have been following this post. I manage to get the sim unlock menu, then I go to GSM options and I manage to retrieve the lis of the following operators in my country, but as I select any of them, I get the message Your SIM card does not allow a connection to this network. Any clues on how to fix it? Thank you in, advance
Try to redo the unlock procedure and reboot the phone...i think it should work cuz its something related to unlocking,
Hello Guys,
I just lost my phone and a friend of mine gave me one that he is not using anymore because he did not know how to unlock it so he bought a new one. Now I have that phone and it happens to be an HTC One M7 from Sprint, it is running Android 5.0.2 with HTC Sense 6.0, Software 6.23.651.10. I booted in recovery mode and it says it is Relocked, S-Off, Hboot is 1.61. Also, there is one option that says simlock and if I click on it then it says SD init fail (within the recovery mode menu).
The phone is rooted, I managed to do it via Kingo App and I just need to get it working in another GSM network, I have been looking for information about this but all I have found is info for when we were back in Android 4.2.3 and tried to go with it but it does not work.
If anyone can please help me find a solution so I can unlock this phone I would really appreciate it.
