So I've been communicating with HTC people via their support chat, I know my phones been screwed for a long time but they said they want me to send my phone into the repair center which would cost up to $200, so initially I said no way because my contracts almost up so it's not worth it.
So pretty much when I power down and hold home my screen says:
***Tampered***
***Relocked***
***Security Warning***
M7_WLS PVT SHIP S-ON RH
Hboot- 1.56.0000
My question is how do I fix the re-locked since that's the part they want me to send my phone in for.

only way to get it to say locked instead of relocked is to get s-off on your phone, and for that you need a working rom and also will need to use sunshine s-off tool which will cost $25, but this wont help you as HTC already know you once unlocked your bootloader.
on a different note, why do you need to send your phone to HTC, whats wrong with it ? its nothing to do with the relocked status, I can lock, unlock or relock all of my HTC's in 5 mins, but that would explain why they will charge you for any repairs, shows it was once unlocked and that voids your warranty.

lets get straight to the point, what is wrong with your phone, or what do you want to do to it, does it work now, does it boot etc ?
---------- Post added at 07:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:18 PM ----------
you have many options, you can post your fastboot getvar all now as it is with relocked status and see if we can find an RUU to flash to your phone
or
you can unlock your phone, flash a custom recovery and then flash a custom rom, choice is yours, but all depends on whats wrong with your phone, why you want to send it to HTC.

My phone refuses to let me go into recovery mode, it just sends me back to the fastboot screen I want to update it, I have the RUU but the problem is since it says re locked it refuses to let me update or reset. I don't want to send it to HTC, their support chat told me to send it to them because it wouldn't let me update. Which was the reason why I wanted to speak to them to see how I could update it.

couple of things first of all, if you have the full RUU for your phone, then it needs to be relocked to flash it, can you post a link to it or the full file name.
if you have a custom recovery on your phone then relocked is why you cant get into recovery, your phone needs to be unlocked to enter anything custom, stock recovery will look like a big red exclamation mark on the phone screen to start with.
you also need to be using M7_WLS Spirit files, GSM files wont work.
now the downside, if you do have a custom recovery on your phone, you wont beable to unlock it, that requires stock recovery, only way to get stock recovery back on there is either flash the correct RUU for your phone (if there is one) or flash the firmware.
can you post your fastboot getvar all without imei and serial number please.

easier way, in your bootloader where you got the other information from, does it say os version at all ?
---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 PM ----------
I'm going to have to go in a min but have a look here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-sprint/news/ read the manual update instruction on this page and follow them, if your current OS version is a 5.xx.651.x then use the RUU that HTC gave you, again just follow the manual instructions on that page linked above.
if your current os version is already 6.23.651.6 then use the RUU at on that page, the download link is at the bottom, again just follow the manual update instructions.
Your phone will work fine again after either of those.

when you plug your phone into the computer, make sure its says fastboot usb on your phone screen inside the bootloader and then go into device manager on your computer, see if your computer can see your phone, it should say at the top of your device manager - Android Devices - MyHTC, if you have a yellow exclamation mark in there somewhere that says "One" or something like that then you will need to manually force the driver.

Hi All,
I tired to go S-ON after upgrading to ARHD 11.5 and flashing the 4.2.2 firmware. I initially put in the command :
./revone -s 0 -l
to lock the phone.
Then i though i should go S-On and not just lock. So i entered the command :
* ./revone -l
* fastboot oem writesecureflag 3
Now my phone doesnt boot into system or into recovery, it falls back to bootloader everytime and will display ：
*** TAMPERED ***
*** LOCKED ***
*** Security Warning ***
Please help me recover my phone , i do not want to wipe sdcard.
I didnt do Super CID

I`am sorry for you but this is not easily fixed imo, only HTC can repair your phone and that off course isn`t covered by warranty. You`re stuck and there is nothing you can do imo. Maybe someone else has a solution , or you might look around for a JTag service and ask if they can fix it.
ALWAYS lock the bootloader and go S-On AFTER you flashed a RUU.
BTW this: ./revone -s 0 -l is for S-Off and UNlocking the bootloader.

Hi mate, failing to see what he did wrong here though? Can you just explain
With revone you can unlock the bootloader without losing any data, but since you aren't able to boot into the system I don't think that's a viable option.
The only solution I can think of at the moment is searching for the proper RUU for your device and installing it. That will wipe your data, however.
By the way, since you can access bootloader, your device is NOT bricked. The misuse of that word pisses me off. Sorry for the rant. And ugh, may I ask why you wanted to go S-ON? lol

- OP didn`t make backup the original rom that came with the phone.
- Then he unlocked the bootloader and got S-Off
- He neglected to write supercid or one like HTC__001
- THen he locked the bootloader and got S-Off
- And now recovery, also a custom recovery is not functional
- The RUU he needs to flash is most probably not availabe.
So, this is an impasse till he finds the right RUU.

Maybe, but you can`t flash anything that is custom software like a rom or something because of the locked bootloader and S-On. Only the identical RUU can help you out of this.
Wiping will not help, the custom rom that is loaded cannot load and you don`t have the RUU you need to flash. CWM is not accessible.

I know superCID , but just didnt think there was any need for it , i upgraded my firmware twice by adding my cid to the list. well this was a nice lesson.
Can you point me to a link that would show me how to extract RUU from my phone , would be good knowledge for future.
Also any ideas where are the wallpapers stored , somehow , my wallpaper is still present which is a pic i captured 2 days back , atleast will have 1 memory from that trip
for anyone else who is wondering where the current wallpaper is stored
/data/system/users/0/wallpaper
the filename "wallpaper" is actually a PNG file without file extension. just copy it and add .png to the file name.
Stay S-Off.. Stay Unlocked on Bootloader.. Nuff said. One should not tamper with this unless you REALLY Need to.. Which is.. never. A bootloader can never be *Locked* again after unlocking it.
I've searched the Forum but I'm so over-my-head that I'm not really finding my exact issue and I'm kinda trying things willie nillie which I know is going to leave me with a bricked phone.
I tried following the rooting guide at http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/ and booted into my Sprint Rom successfully with the SU installed. Then I added the Android Revolution rom and tried to flash it. Since that point I've had boot loop issues.
Android Revolution will boot loop to the bootloader and not even attempt to get into the OS. When I tried installing Viper Rom, I could get to the unlock screen, but when I'd unlock, the screen would display a white page with "htc" on it, then eventually reboot. I then tried to flash the stock Sprint Rom. It will load to the lock screen, but not unlock, and will reboot eventually. Finally, I tried following the instructions here from a similar situation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2411137. When I go through the first tutorial the [SOLVED] post refers to, I get the error that warning: seek lseek64 failed when I try the second step. I also can't get RUU to work because when I turn my phone off and plug it in, it automatically turns on to the bootloader.
Presently the bootloader reads:
tampered
relocked
security warning
m7_wls pvt ship s-on rh
hboot 1.55.0000
opendsp-v31.120.274.0517

It looks to me like your not unlocked anymore. Your Bootloader should say Unlocked, not Relocked. I would go through that process again before you do anything else.

Chose "Yes" to unlock bootloader
Allowed phone to reboot

--Will reboot periodically if left alone
Now in hboot it says *** unlocked ***, does not have the security warning, but still, I can't seem to get the rom to ever boot properly. Also I still can't RUU because the phone won't shut down (and because I'm unlocked again).
Thank you for your help - any other ideas?

Ok, so after some pretty extensive research here is what I have found. First you are on a newer HBOOT version than I am (not sure how this happened was pretty sure I updated, but who knows), so the only way for you to achieve S-Off is using rumrunner. You can find that info at the link below. Do that first, then after that you should be able to complete the rest of the steps in the [SOLVED] forum you found earlier. Fingers crossed this works for you.

PM me your google username, and I will chat with you on Hangouts. Maybe we can figure it out that way.
I was speaking with a friend and he thinks that this may have started because I flashed a GSM rom accidentally instead of a Sprint-designed-rom. Also he said my hboot might be the wrong version to go through the fix that MrFixIt and others have posted where you use fastboot to go through the oem recovery to sideload a rom.
Any ideas would be welcome at this point.

BigDaddy's guide (above) solved my issue. I had run the steps before but I tried to sideload the rom at the end and that would fail.
I'm now running Slim Bean rom w/ GPS and radios working and I'm so happy. THANK YOU BIG DADDY AND THIS GUY FOR ALL YOUR HELP!!!

i cant access adb
it always gives an error and says no devices found
Please guys help me get my M7 Up
Look for the all in one toolkit and adb sideload.
You May need the new drivers it has.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
Try to return the device to stock. So the first thing you want to do is install the HTC drivers on your computer. Next find the RUU (rom) for your device here: http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-file-downloads/
Next thing is you want to boot into the bootloader menu and connect the usb. It should be in fastboot mode now. Now since you have S-On you will have to relock the bootloader before you are able to flash the RUU. I'm not 100% sure how to relock the bootloader but google is your friend. Once bootloader has been locked you need to boot the device in fastboot mode once again. once there you will have to run the following commands in command prompt.
use cd to change the directory to where you downloaded the RUU zip. ie if its on your desktop then it should be (assuming its windows):
cd C:\Users\"your Username here"\Desktop
next you want to run
fastboot oem rebootRUU
then once the htc logo pops up run
fastboot flash zip "the name of the RUU zip file".zip
The first time you run the previous command you should get an error like this:
FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)
Once you get this error run the previous command immediately. The RUU should now just flash the phone back to stock and you should be good to go!

you can change the CID to 11111111(SuperCID) and MID to PN0710000, that way any RUU would work. These forums should help

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2305490
sometimes my m7 can not be detected by my computer so giving commands to it is impossible.
then i restart my computer and its all ok.
you should try that
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
that is the error i got when i tried flashing the ruu "RUU Zip M7 HTC Google Edition_3.06.1700.10"
Did you change your cid as in the previous post? To flash the Google play edition ROM you will need a the super cid or the Google one

Since your phone is unbranded I would go with the developer sense ROM. This might also need the cid change as well, but the developer ROM is the brightstar US one

you are in a conundrum at the moment. In order for you to change the CID you need S-off. So that would be the first step. Find a way to get s-off then everything should just work smoothly
*****Edit*****
Don't know why i didnt mention this before, but the google play edition rom needs s-off to work which is why it didnt work. So like i mentioned before try to install the brightstar US developer RUU. Also what is your CID ATM? You might need to install an RUU specific to your CID
---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------
you can get your CID by booting into fastboot and running this:
fastboot getvar cid
The biggest thing you need right now is to get back to a running rom. From there you can root, get S-off and then run any sort of rom you want. With S-on you are severely limited.
---------- Post added at 01:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:51 PM ----------
on second thought lets try and get you back up and running with viper rom as that seems easier at this point. As long as your bootloader is unlocked i think we should be able to do it. Do you by any chance have a USB OTG cable? It will help immensely if you have one.
The first thing you should do is get twrp custom recovery. from here:
http://techerrata.com/file/twrp2/m7/openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-m7.img
next you want to flash this recovery using fastboot
so navigate using cd to where you dowloaded the file as before
then type in command line
fastboot flash recovery "NameOfRecovery".img
after this you should now have TWRP recovery installed. Next you will want to boot into recovery and if you do not have a USB OTG cable then follow the instructions in this video to load the viperrom zip file onto the phone
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CivvxcM1PCY
Once the file is on your phone. You will want to do a data wipe/factory reset in recovery. Now you can finally flash the rom and will hopefully get you back up and running.
Guys,
take it easy a bit, flashing RUUs, changing CIDs, Kindle Fire sideload youtube etc. is rushing things a little, especially with S-On!! ... and S-Off can wait.
especially without a "fastboot getvar all"
at OP, please start by
1- posting a "fastboot getvar all" (excluding IMEI and s/n)
2- what recovery you are running (name and version)
3- what does Windows Device Manager show (while in custom recovery) -> "Unknown Device" or "Android USB .. -> My HTC" (if it's the former then check my guide FAQ #2... disregard the guide only check the FAQ!!)
lol guess what guys, i jus got my device to accept the sideload command...i unplugged my device and plugged it back in and now it wont pick up sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok so im back in adb devices trying to push the rom, i reached as far as this command "adb push Rom.zip.zip /data/media"
but it says Permission Denied..why?
THANKS A BUNCH GUYS FOR UR HELP, I finally succeeded in doing it , i done it by sideload and nailed tht ****!!!!!!!!!!but cudnt do it without u guys insight, patience and help thanks
Not a problem. Glad to be of some help.

You could try it multiple times. Reboot the phone, computer, change USB ports, etc.. Who knows, maybe it'll work.
I know the M8 I got S-Off on took the 1.54.651.8 OTA before I even bothered to actually mess with it (unlock bootloader, root, and S-Off) and it was perfectly able to do all of those things.

If Firewater says it won't work on your device, then you can't get S-OFF for the time being. There's nothing you can do about that.
Don't flash anything above 1.54.651.8 without being S-Off

I'm running into the same problem and I need it badly.
If you do flash .13 without S-off you basically will have no way to flash the firmware and could be without audio from the stock music app.
Wow it's been a long night. This is a learning process for me. I've never come to a new phone so quickly so I'm getting used to the fact that development takes time and I need to be patient. I pretty much soft bricked my phone last night. Ended up deleting my system partition and had to pull some tricks to even get back into a bootable rom. I took one of the TWRP stock restores and reverted all the way back to 1.12.651.17. Then I fastboot flashed the stock recovery from 1.54.651.8 and took the OTA update so now I am completely back to stock....FEW...avoided a trip to the sprint store. I now understand that since I don't have S-OFF yet, I should flash any software versions over .8. In order to have a fully working .13, I'm sure the firmware is required as well (most likely the reason why my audio wasn't working for some of the ROMs). However, I'm still stuck with the issue in the picture below. I need to get S-OFF so I can flash the firmware 1.54.651.8, including the Hboot, Is it possible to flash an Hboot.img without being S-OFF?
#firewater is the IRC channel for the S-OFF by the way.
Also why is my radio and open dsp showing invalid-ver-info?
Anybody please help?
And something is really messed up because now my vibration won't work. No idea what is going on I just badly need s-off.
@mhuffer
So what is your current issue? It sounds like you have a working 1.54.651.8 setup, which, without S-OFF, is the most up-to-date. You might not be able to run the Harman Kardon ROM, as that may require the HK firmware, but besides that is everything working (outside of the invalid entries showing in HBOOT)?

Well it seems like my Hboot isn't recognizing my radios and somthing tells me the firmware is borked somehow because my vibration feedback isn't working. I am currently on 1.54.651.8, rooted, dev unlocked, fully stock. You can see from the picture my Hboot doesn't look right. My vibration was working fine yesterday but i cannot pin point when it stopped working. I'm guessing when I accidentally deleted the system partition through TWRP 2.7.0.7. I am currently running your version of TWRP (2.7.0.7). I'm also in the firewater IRC asking for help. I think my best bet would be to get s-off somehow and hboot the framework from 1.54.651.8 with unmodified hboot so I can get back to stock (if this is possible). At some point in all my confusion last night I did change my CID version to 11111111 and try to run the RUU for the HK version (.13) this might be where it all went wrong. I have my phone up and running and everything is working except for vibration and the Hboot looks out of whack.

Well if you're not S-OFF, you couldn't have changed your CID. And if you ran the OTA to get where you are now, then you're firmware is already stock.
You can try flashing the stock firmware from the 1.54.651.8 OTA again and see if that normalizes your device.

I need someway to revert my Hboot while being S-ON. I was hoping somebody that had some knowledge could make and RUU with the proper CID to revert EVERYTHING back to stock. I mean I want to start from the bottom up. I don't know if this is possible without HTC releasing anything.

I figured that, is there any way to create a flashable zip with signed everything except for the recovery so I can possibly push it through TWRP. You have to understand I want to try everything possibly before returning this phone to sprint. I have a feeling they will want to ship it off to HTC if the vibration doesn't work.

Relock Bootloader, then fastboot oem rebootRUU, then fastboot flash zip firmware.zip.
Then you can unlock again if you want and flash custom recovery. But you can at least see if the firmware zip gets everything working properly again.

I never got a message of "You are out of luck" on my failed attempts. But....
First phone took me like 3 tries. Windows 7 x64
Second phone took like 4 failed attempts Windows 8.1 x64 (same computer) (timing out with over 2 minutes of dots......) using the exact same version of firewater as previous phone.
I was not sure if it was a Windows 8 issue.
Then I tried downloading the latest firewater and it was different from what I downloaded a month ago and worked the first time.
I agree. Try multiple times. Try with phone on WIFI vs Mobile Data. SO that Data is available quickly after adb reboot.
Try rebooting computer and try even another computer another USB port. Some computers have internal "USB Hubs". Try front vs Back etc.
I was able to do it on Windows 8.1 x64. I install latest HTC Sync. Then uninstall everything but the drivers.
I also had flashed Bad Boys 1.1 (Unlocked with S-ON) to get my rooted OS instead of manually rooting it. Then Factory Reset it. Turned on WIFI then did S-OFF.
Most rooted ROMs remove a lot of baggage that might interfere with rooting.
I'm still running all stock firmware though except for Recovery.
Thanks for all your replies. I keep trying, even with wifi on, and get this message every time (see attached picture). I really need s-off for wifi tether and so many more things. Please, someone must know a work-around?

Ouch, pretty blunt message.
You don't need S-OFF to get wifi tether. All you need is HTC Unlock and Root.
S-OFF mainly allows you to flash firmware. You can only flash complete and signed firmware without S-OFF.
And each time you do, you'll have to reflash recovery.
I believe you can install several ROMs with S-ON that support Wifi Tether.
I ran "Wifi Tether Router" from Google Play ($1.99) with S-ON (HTC Unlock/Root) before S-OFF was available.

The Captain is right. I got on the IRC this morning and talked to the firewater guys. They didn't really say why but they were at least a good amount of help. I can't say I blame them for not releasing any information on why. I just wish I knew about bootloader exploits.
Also, I'm on windows 7 pro 64-bit. I have a laptop with win 8 64-bit, but am afraid to try on that PC due to ALL its USB ports are 3.0 (and firewater says to avoid 3.0 ports).

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.

Thank you Yatindroid and Majmoz
Well "fastboot getvar all" can't be processed since fastboot works with the bootloader (need the USB).
But 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
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

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
