Thanks for the info Danny. But I have relocked my bootloader as part of rooting to stock ROM. What to be done here next??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
To unlock you need to flash the Unlock_code.bin you had from htcdev the same way you unlocked it originally. You can just flash the same one if you still have it. Or if you need to you can just go get a new one from HTC dev.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzvaibhav:
Got that Danny.. I just Unlocked it. But How do I S-off my phone. Is it mandatory that I S-off. Because I see S-on on my bootloader
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
The phone needs to be booting to a Rom before you can s-off, s-off is not mandatory unless your going to downgrade firmware or run an older ruu. But first you need to get the phone booting.

Try the recovery from the link I posted and try to flash a Rom for your device first ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itzvaibhav:
Phew!! Didn't know it was this simple. All I need to do was find the right version. Thanks a ton Danny.

Now can I install anything like themes or any roms??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
So your recovery is working now? :) if so you should be good. Just make sure any Rom you install is compatible with your dual SIM phone.

As I say I don't know enough about your dual SIM device to recommend anything you'll need to do that research your self. :good:

Question, I'm S-off on Sprint running a ported M8 Sense 6 ROM.

Does the ability to go backwards so to speak, apply to me as well? Boot loader is 1.56 and I've been told you can't go backwards after 4.4.2 OTA which I did.

---------- Post added at 06:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 PM ----------

See above screen shots for details..
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
You mean, can you downgrade after 4.4.2? Yes with s-off anything is possible. Unless Whoever told you that can supply a credible link or source. As far as I know downgrade should be possible.

I downgraded from 4.4.2 to return my phone for warranty (purple camera tint) no problem.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DSR_1106:
Thanks! Could I trouble you for a link or a video you followed or any info to get that downgrade done? I'm pretty knowledgeable so it can be to the point and brief. I just need the basics. Note; I grabbed a few " RUU zips " ranging from 3.xx to 4.651.2 and only the 3.xx RUU would run and it disabled my touch screen. It did actually downgrade the firmware technically though it was not a useable device until I got it into boot loader and did a side load..

Thank you in advance for any information at all.

Frustrated!!!

This is the guide I used to downgrade and return my phone to stock. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2541082

It looks a little daunting at first glance but once you've got your head around how the guide is set out it's really easy.

It just looks complicated as it covers different scenarios depending on the device. Some people can't get and RUU at all (i was one of them) so I had to use the Stock Nandroid method which is a little more trouble than the RUU methods but still works just as well. I also used the RUU Method on a friends phone which is a lot easier.

Hi,

I have a noob question, and I'm sorry that this not where i should post :o

I have an International HTC One M7 (4.4.2 and Sense 6). Since HTC is committed to provide OTAs for Android L, which I don't want to miss. But I want my phone to be S-Off and Unlocked bootloader. I've read a post saying that we are still eligible for OTAs if we have stock recovery, stock rom. So I just want to Unlock my bootloader and S-Off, thats it I dont want to install any recovery or flash any roms. I only want this because, i will be frank, i need that pan360 feature in my camera (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JU28g9yxzN4) as you can see at 14:45 in the linked video. So what should I do? And unlocking bootloader, getting s-off and relocking the bootloader qualifies us to get OTAs? how exactly does the HTCs OTAs check in my phone before it decides whether im eligible for OTA or not.

Thanks in advance! :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Ok so as long as you have Stock Rom and recovery you will get OTAs. Unlocked bootloaders and s-off will not affect it in anyway.

But unlocking your bootloader with HTC dev will wipe your device including some preloaded apps from your phone and these need to be replaced before you install the ota or it will fail.

Posting your getvar would be helpful you may be able to get a reset zip you can flash when the ota is available, this way you can do pritty much anything you want Rom and recovery wise then flash the zip when your ready for ota and install it with no problems.

Theres also the sunshine app, it costs $25 but will unlock your bootloader and give you s-off without the need to use htcdev.com i don't know if it will also wipe preload apps though.

To get your getvar info you need to use Fastboot if you need further instruction to do this just post here and I'll help you.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phsetaknev:
Thanks a lot :) Apart from Sunshine is there anything else? :D And can you tell me how to get my getvar? Im not rooted at all (I have Locked bootloader and S-On as of now)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Adb/fastboot are the most important tools in any android owners arsenal. There are a few ways to install it but this is probably the easiest way.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

Download and install the package from this thread on your pc. To use Fastboot you need to locate the folder the package installed and hold Shift and right click on the folder and select "open command window here"

This is your Fastboot command line. Now boot your phone into the bootloader and select Fastboot from the menu. Your bootloader should now say Fastboot in red. Now connect your phone with the usb cable. Your computer may need to install some drivers so just wait for that to finish.

Your bootloader should now say fastbootusb. Now you can issue commands from your pc to your phone. In the Fastboot command line you opened earlier type

fastboot devices

you should get an output showing your phone's serial no. This confirms its working. So now type

fastboot getvar all

this will show all the version information about your device, copy it and post it here but edit out your serial no. And imei no. Before posting.

Do t worry nothing in your phone will be modified by this process ;)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phsetaknev:

And when i connected it automatically didnt say fastboot usb, i had to change the focus onto other options then it appeared/changed above to fastbootusb. weird. Thanks for your reply!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
In regards to s-off Sunshine is definitely the easiest way to do it but as I said it costs $25 but is fully automated you just install the app then run it pay when prompted and let the app work it's magic.

firewater also could work and it's free but requires the bootloader to be unlocked and the device to be rooted. It's also a little trial and error involved with firewater. You may need to try with different roms and kernels before it will work and in some cases will not work atall.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
Please stop cross posting. You already have a thread open on this. A search would have saved you time and effort. with the right kernel you can turn the screen on with volume buttons or double tap to wake.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ali.cr7:
no one reply my question in that thread. i dont want to change kernel, i just want the application
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zelendel:
First off this is not a support forum. Many questions never get an answer as it can be easily found with a google search. Second what you want to do needs kernel support so if you dont have a custom kernel then there is no app to do it. All this could have been found on your own with the proper research.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Well it looks good, there is a reset file avalible for your device unfortunately the site that's hosts it seems to be having some technical issues right now so I couldn't grab a link.

www.htc1guru.com is the main site go to the download section and look for "Stock Rom Reset .zip Downloads"

Your looking for this one. You'll notice it matches the mid and cid from your getvar output.

Edit:- it seems to be up again here's a link to the reset file http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-63-707-4-zip/

Also all the avalible firmware.zips can be found here

http://xda7.androidrevolution.org/db_mirror/Firmware/index.php?dir=HTC/HTC_One/707/

so regardless of what you do once s-off returning to stock for ota's should be fairly simple.

Just flash the reset zip (you will need a custom recovery to do that) and restore firmware 3.xx707.xx to match the Rom and your done back to stock only with s-off and unlocked bootloader. Take the ota's up to the latest and sit tight for the 4.4.3 and android L.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rapraga:
sensei, i have some question :

just got my htc one from my friend last friday :)

with this condition:

- s-off

- hboot 1.43

- FW 5.11.401.10

- ROM ARHD 71.1

- CID_001

my question:

i want flash another rom base FW 6.xx (Example : maximus 44.00)

should i upgrade my firmware to 6.xx? and hboot too?

can i flash FW 6.xx with outdated hboot like 1.43?

with 5.11.401.10 it should be run with hboot 1.57 right?

if i want upgrade my hboot, that must be one-by-one (1.43,1.44,1.54...) ?

thankyou sensei, sorry for my english :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Well since your already s-off almost anything is possible, your correct about your hboot with the 5.xx firmware you should be running hboot 1.57. I expect the previous owner has installed a custom hboot amongst other reason to remove the red text warning from the splash screen that comes with s-off.

Personally I would just flash the new Rom as you are and see how it performs. Running the latest firmware is not mandatory, so unless you get problems after flashing the Rom I would leave it for now.

If you do flash the latest firmware it will probably replace your hboot with 1.57 I don't think you need to update through all hboot version, fairly sure that only applies to firmware. So you should be good to update from where you are. But you'll want a firmware without red text warning or it may comeback after the update.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rapraga:
thankyou sensei :)

just flash the new Rom, and it run so good. firmware has changed to 6.xx automatically but hboot still 1.43

is the rom included new firmware? (insertcoin Rom)

maximus Rom come separately, firmware and Rom

honestly, i dont know about custom hboot, but the red text warning still there
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
no your firmware won't change with the Rom. It will show new version in the Rom settings because that's what the Rom is based on. But your firmware is probably still the same.

You can check with fastboot getvar all.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phsetaknev:
1) So inorder to s-off you need your bootloader unlocked right?

2) And what if i dont install any custom recovery but just keep s-off and unlocked bootloader (which is foolish :D) and try for OTA updates? will it be successful?

3) I now have a firmware of 5.12.707.105 (?) and once i flash a custom rom it will change, im guessing and so in order to get an OTA i have to restore it to which firmware from guru reset tools?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Ok how you get s-off depends on weather you need to unlock first.

If you use firewater you need to unlock bootloader and root before you can s-off. But firewater may fail. You can check if firewater will work by downloading emmc brick bug app and checking your emmc cid. If it begins with 9001 firewater will not work. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.vinagre.android.emmc_check

Sunshine is very easy to get s-off it will also unlock and root the device for you. The entire process is automated. But it costs $25. If your emmc cid does start with 9001 Sunshine is the only way to get s-off.

Unfortunately unlocking the bootloader with HTC dev will wipe some preloaded stock apps from your stock Rom. This will cause the ota to fail. I don't know if the same applies if you unlock with sunshine you'd need to ask that in the sunshine thread. But if you flash the custom recovery then the reset.zip I linked that will restore everything you need for ota's. Stock Rom including preloaded apps and also Stock recovery.

Flashing custom roms will not change your firmware you have to do that manually through Fastboot which requires s-off. Or by installing otas.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phsetaknev:
Thanks for your patience. Yes it does start with 9001. So if I dont S-off and lets say I just unlock my bootloader using this link (http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/) which involves HTCdev and install TWRP recovery. I have 2 more questions now

1) Now (since using htcdev to unlock removes the necessary checkpoints to accept the next OTA) if I want to install OTA i just have to use the reset zip from guru reset and flash it and Im ready to install the OTA??

2) In this video (http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-tutorials/how-to-get-s-off-on-htc-one/) they used rumrunner, is it ok to do so??
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
1) correct the reset.zip will completely prepare your software to accept OTA updates. I don't know if firmware will cause an issue though as your on a newer firmware than the reset.zip to downgrade the firmware to match you will need s-off

2) to be honest I don't think it's worth wasting any time or effort with rumrunner to s-off. If your emmc cid is 9001 Sunshine is the only method developed for that.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phsetaknev:
Yeah but I am a student and I cant afford sunshine :( so trying to get to different ways. I read that S-Off is only useful if we want to upgrade the firmware or to install a new radio and stuff like that right? So if i dont s-off and i just root the device, unlocked bootloader i can flash custom roms until and unless........(is there any condition?)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Yes I understand, in fact you don't even need s-off to upgrade firmware that is possible with s-on.

You only need s-off to downgrade firmware or install custom firmware.

The reset.zip may still work for you I don't know for sure that the firmware will interfere with the updates. I used one before with higher firmware but was only one version different. Where as yours is 3 versions diffrence.

If your planning to unlock and flash custom roms anyway, then I would say it's worth trying other methods to s-off (except firewater it will not work with your emmc) but either way you can still flash the latest custom roms and update firmware with s-on.

But if you need to return to stock for warranty purposes at any point you will need s-off.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phsetaknev:
Ahh cuss it :) I don't really care about HTC OTAs, I have awesome developers in this community and I can get the latest versions anytime :). And my device is already out of warranty so I don't worry about it either :).

Your welcome happy I could help and if you want my suggestion see my Sig, but it's better to experiment yourself, different people like different roms.

I like ARHD because it close to stock and has no bugs but you may want something with more customization or added features, just enjoy trying different roms from time to time eventually you will settle on a favorite. :)

S-off is possible. You can try rumrunner, firewater and Sunshine App. Sunshine is by far the easiest as its fully automated and works best with stock Rom and kernel, but costs $25.

Firewater and rumrunner are free to use but can be a little bit trial and error before they will work. You may need to try a few different Rom + kernel combinations to find a good one.

hey guys

I have an HTC One (M7) AT&T Unlocked is it safe to flash a rom on it or will it lock again??? :confused:

and if is it safe what kind of roms shall I flash on it??

thanks :)
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danny201281:
Flashing roms is perfectly safe it won't effect the lock status of your bootloader, nor will it change your firmware or the contents of your internal storage.

To know what types of Rom you can use you first need to know what type of m7 you have.

Boot your phone to the bootloader and connect fastbootusb. Then in the Fastboot command line type this.

fastboot getvar all

Then post the output here. Please edit out your serial and imei no. Then I can point you in the right direction. :)
