I am using HTC one M7 801e since Feb 2014 in US and it is an international unlocked version. It was working fine until I came back to India. After it is auto updated to Android Lollipop 5.0.2 and Sense 6.0 version , it had stopped working with 3G and I have been running only with 2G/E. I tried to debug the devices through various options available in internet. I have noticed that the bootloader is unlocked and have locked it by mistake through some adb commands. Now I would like to unlock the bootloader without the help of HTC dev or Sunshine and with out wiping out my data. Is it possible? Then I have noticed that the CID is HTC__621 and I wanted to update the CID to HTC__038. Can someone help me on this?
Here you go with some more details of my device.
Locked, S-On, Hboot: 1.61, CID:HTC__621,
Software number: 7.18.709.151, Baseband version: 4T.35.3218.16
I have very limited knowledge on debugging the devices and I am just a beginner started learning about Android devices and debugging through various threads available in this forum.

Hello everyone ,
I got a HTC one m8 (sprint) from US and I want to use it in Chile. It was previously android 4.4.4 and I updated to 5.01 lollipop (directly from the phone). I'll try to be clear.
My Target: Unlock the SIM and locked bands to use it in my network (movistar) witch works on 850 and 1900 Mhz Bands GSM. : (I now if it work on AT&T it will work for me also)
I saw several tutorials to sim unlock M8 Sprint running 4.4.4 but nothing with lollipop 5.01. Is it that possible nowdays? if is so, can you please provide the link?
If is it not, how can I come back to android 4.4.4 if I am S-ON? I tried RUU .exe files, but they didn't work.
I also try to S-OFF with sunshine and firewater but both fails (looks like they don't support android 5.01).
I tried to unlock the Bands with QPST but I can only see 800Mhz, 1900Mhz and US Bands to choose.
I have my phone rooted with TWRP.
I have spent a lot of days trying to do it by myself but I realize that I definetely need your help!
Please help me !

I tried another method and it work:
1.- I had to S-OFF my device with lastest Sunshine App Version 3.0.12 (you can get it fromHERE)
2.- Then I had to go back to the stock android kitkat rom 4.4.4 with a RUU ROM
"RUU_M8_WHL_K444_SENSE60_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_3.31.651.2_Radio_1.08.20.0916_NV_SPCS_1.52_003_release_403241_signed_2.exe"
3.- Just then I could unlock all the bands following the instructions HERE
I hope this can help someone else :good:

Did you lock the bootloader when you ran the RUU im contemplating doing the same im simlocked but unlocked via sunshine running a custom rom. I'm sure you did but to be sure, when you went back to 4.4.4 you had to run sunshine again correct?

When I had the RUU rom installed, everything was back to stock but my phone still was S-off (So you don't need to pay twice ).
Then you just have to follow the instructions HERE and you will have finally your sim unlocked.
When you finish, you can install any custom rom ( I tried BadBoyz and Viper) and everything will work fine :good:
I hope this can help you!

Hi everyone, I currently have an HTC One M7 running Android 4.4.3 on ViperOne 7. H-BOOT is 1.54 and phone is S-OFF. I have a couple of questions regarding firmware update and latest Android versions:
1) Is there an official update from HTC to Marshmallow? I was thinking of unrooting the device and updating to Marshmallow if that is the case. From what I've read the Marshmallow ROMs on xda are not very stable. What's the latest official update for unlocked M7? On the HTC website (http://www.htc.com/us/go/htc-software-updates/#device-content) it says it's Marshmallow.
2) Can I get S-OFF and update my firmware using a Mac? I could not find a guide specifically for this. I think I am currently on 2.24.401.1.
Thanks!

The latest official version is Android Lollipop 5.0.2 with HTC Sense 6
If your phone is already S-OFF then it will stay S-OFF forever, unless you turn it back S-ON manually using the appropriate fastboot command. Upadting the firmware on a mac isn't a problem but flashing the latest RUU (if you want to update firmware and software) will requires a Windows PC since it must be done using htc_fastboot.exe (not the regular fastboot) which is, afaik, only available in .exe for Windows.
Hey, its me again,
Yesterday I removed some 4.4.2 rom from my HTC and now I cant get install any.
Informations from previous ROM:
HTC SDK API level: 6.20
PRL verison: 55015,
Software number: 5.11.661.8,
Kernel: 3.4.10-xiaoxiang8002-soul1.0, SMP PREEMPT,
Baseband version: 2.03.30.0109,
Build number:5.11.661.8 CL334166
Informations from Bootloader:
M7_WLS PVT SHIP S-OFF RH
CID-11111111
HBOOT-1.57.0000
OpenDSP-v26.120.274.0202
OS-
and its GSM version.
I tried to flash (TWRP) some stock rooted 4.4.2 - after flash, only HTC logo appears a stuck in there.
ViperOne gives me status 7 error.
GPE stock and plus failed too.
I want some lollipop ROM, but can I flash lollipop ROMs without official update from kitkat to lollipop?
Do I need to update baseband or hboot etc. - and if so which versions?
Can i flash RUU exe lollipop file from official HTC website? (http://www.htc.com/cz/support/updates.aspx) I dont want to lose my sim unlock/s-off.
Please let give some overall informations, im really confused of all those articles and threads. I would even appreciate some stock ROM, the only thing i dont want to lose is S-OFF, because its sim unlocked.
Im desperate.
EDIT // OK. Its always like - im despereate, going here, creating a thread and then i suddenly work it out. :|
I managed to restore it using official RUU. I used Sprint version 6.23.651.10, works normally but at startup it is doing some Hansfree Activation without succes, telling me its not working on GSM, no big deal. And it keeps telling me some **** about improving my connection with location service.
Should I try AT&T version 7.23.502.9? And whats the difference betweeen 6.23.651.10 and 7.23.502.9?
Thanks.

M7wls in the bootloader = it's a CDMA (sprint) variant, not a GSM variant. You can only use roms compatible with this variant (version number x.xx.651.x), roms for the GSM variant (m7ul) won't work. 6.23.651.10 is the latest official version that will work on your phone.
You can bypass hands free activation by deleting the htcsetupwizard.apk file from your phone. It can be done from twrp recovery (make sure to flash the sprint version of twrp). Boot in twrp, mount /system. Use twrp's file manager and go to /system/app and delete the file. Unmount, wipe cache and dalvik and reboot.
