[Q] How do i get busybox on the stock rom ?

i kinda already got setup, unlocked, and everything on the stock rom, since this phone (and other htc phones) is/are "system locked" how do i get busybox on this? i figured they would stick through recovery but i cant seem to find a flashable busybox xbin/bin, and i know there USED to be a way to bypass the system lock but it used to cause kernel panics, what do i do ?
ive tried using moonshine but as i posted in that thread it just freezes after Test 2 at ERROR: ADB failure
You need to have S-OFF to install busybox via the actual app or you can just manually flash it via recovery.

Moonshine is the only way, just do it lol it's extremely easy. I've ruu'd my first countless times already and turned s-off many times too no problems.
Here's the thread I used to flash busybox before I turned my s-off though.

First I downloaded busybox from the playstore then I flashed it.

Turn off your anti virus and make sure your android sdk is up to date.

I used something called RUMRUNNER , I believe the url is something like rumrunner.us , anyways it uses similar commands as moonshine and similar website , but anyways since moonshine didn't work they recommended rumrunner on the irc and it worked perfect , the only thing though is that it caused a soft-brick which the only solution is to Relock the bootloader , which is fine because even with a lock boot loader you should still be able to flash roms and I think flash recoveries (I don't know just pick a custom recovery that you like just in case you can't later) and yeah that was it.
Oh another thing, if for some unknown reason you DONT wanna relock the boot loader (which keeps S-off after locking) then none of the roms based off stock will work, only the sense ports worked while unlocked and s-off for me.
But yeah this may not happen to everyone, just sharing my solution to a boot loop / soft brick if it happens to anyone who reads this as well.

[Q] Phone stuck in bootloop after trying to get back to stock

Hey everyone,
The time has come for me to sell my phone so I needed to revert it completely back to stock, Was using the latest Viperone rom with elemental X kernel. I downloaded a stock rom, moved it to my phone and flashed it, however the phone is now stuck in a bootloop on the HTC logo and I have no idea how to proceed.
I still have access to recovery, but the phone does not show up in windows no more for me to move files to and from it.
I've included a picture of my bootloader to help. Really at an ends with how to get my phone working again even after looking through these forums for the past two days, so any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

push a rooted custom rom with /system writable functionality to /sdcard using adb push from recovery
flash the rom
s-off the phone using rumrunner or firewater
remove the tampered flag and set your bootloader to locked
restore your phone back to stock using the correct ruu. (probably 1.28.401.7 in your case)
better to keep the phone s-off

Have you tried to reflash recovery and then use it to install DragonROM?

Re-lock your bootloader, install the Boost RUU, then reinstall DragonRom.

Sorry. Unlock your boot loader again, root, install TWRP, then re-flash DragonROM.

1.61hboot revert to stock

Hello all, I rooted my m7 a few weeks ago. For whatever reason I lost my backup after installing cm12. Now CM 12 is all I can get to work. Sense roms either reboot randomly every min or so (never made it through setup) or bootloop, or won't activate with sprint HFA. I want to ruu, but I've read I need to relock the boot loader and everything I've seen to do that requires s-off.
What do I need to do to get back?
1.61 hboot
Rooted
Unlocked/tampered
S-on
Also, why can't I get any sense rom to run?
cant get s-off with sunshine (what i have been told i need for my hboot vers) while im stuck in cm12...help plzzz

You don't need to be s-off to re-lock or RUU and you must be on a stock rom for Sunshine to work.

[Q] Tried Returning to Stock, now stuck in bootloader

So about 6 months ago a friend wanted to root his sprint m8, i had a tmobile one at the time and rooted it and s-off'd it successfully so i did his phone for him, however firewater didn't work for s-off and he didn't want to pay the 25 for sunshine. fast forward to yesterday and he wanted to go back to stock to turn in his phone for an upgrade, so i tried to restore his stock nandroid, but he deleted it. so then i attempted to relock the bootloader and flash the ruu. The ruu failed, and now im stuck in fastboot, twrp is gone, so i can't get a backup restored. I'm hoping their is some other way i can can return his phone to stock. I feel stuck and out of my depth, so i'm hoping someone can help, thanks.

You say the RUU failed...
Any error message?
As much info as you can give would be better.
Yeah it boots into the black screen with silver htc logo and it starts to run and then the error pops up and says "Error 1555 unknown error the rom update utility cannot update your android phone. please get the correct rom update utility and try again."

Sounds like you are trying to use an older RUU.

No, that's where I initially got the first RUU, when it failed i tried to use an older one and the same thing happened. I used this one. http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_..._NV_SPCS_1.52_003_release_426232_signed_2.exe Which was the very top one for sprint, non hk. and I locked the bootloader again so it would work.

If the phone is s-on you cannot flash an older RUU.
Make sure you drivers are installed correctly.
Make sure you are using a USB2 port.
Post the info from bootloader please...really just the hboot version.
Post a copy of getvar all also please.

ok so hboot version says 3.19.0.0000, i am on a usb 2.0 port, i am not sure how to paste my copied text from the cmd prompt into this box so i just pasted it to a .txt file and attached that and it has all the getvar all info. thanks for the help.
Everything is current according to the getvar...go ahead and remove it as it contains the imei #
The latest RUU should work.
Maybe try downloading Sync Manager to update the drivers or try a different PC/usb port.
Low and behold i was in a 3.0 port lmao... smh... so you just saved me beating my head against the wall for god knows how much longer, thanks for the help, the ruu is working fine now:fingers-crossed:
