[Verizon HTC One (M7)] rmaccamr:
We've offered well incentive for the developers working on unlocking our bootloaders, why would they release anything less than a working alpha/beta exploit for us to tinker with beforehand? Kind of defeats the purpose of offering a bounty for what they know we're looking for. Plus if you're a developer, I imagine you take pride in your work, why release a sloppy pre exploit to get flamed to death for? I'm sure if they can offer a fool proof method to debloat without potentially bricking 1,000s of devices they will.

Again, patience is key and just knowing that there are two temp root methods is a gleaming light in the tunnel.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Indirect:
Too bad that with modern htc devices, there is not only the real write protection on the device controlled by the [MENTION=983917]secu[/MENTION]flag, but that there is also a built in write protection to the kernel that kills system (causes reboot) whenever something gets written.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] thecrazy88:
We went throug the same thing with the DNA. Don't worry people it will happen it looks like there are some of the same developers working on the one that unlocked the DNA.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jcase:
its tpd i believe, not the kernel that causes teh reboot. It also reboots if permissions on /data are changed. Easy way around it, nuke tpd
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cbrown245:
How ?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jcase:
su -c "stop tpd"
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] strikeir13:
[MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION], in your opinion, what is the likelihood these temp roots become permanent? Not bootloader unlock but perm root (or isn't that how it works with HTC phones?)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] pmterp:
Has anyone been trying the HTCDev unlock lately? I got mine on day one but I'm curious if HTC may start allowing it again. I previously got a Rezound at launch with a locked bootloader and one day, all of the sudden, HTC began allowing the unlock (even though the device wasn't listed at the time). Wouldn't that make life so much better!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Wyveryx:
I've been eagerly waiting for the ability to root, I'd love to be able to send it to get a Java fix, but I just don't have the time.

Couple of questions if someone could clarify.

Is the Identifier token unique to each phone or just a particular model?

I suppose if it is unique then it will anwer the rest of my questions, and it likely is since we haven't seen a mass unlock. But hey can't keep a guy from dreaming :)

If they aren't, can you use a token from another phone to access the HTCDEV site and unlock?

Again, I doubt this already but I'm just asking :)

Finally, if tokens aren't unique but the site is refusing to accept the tokens to gain access to the Unlock_code.bin is it possible to use a .bin file from someone who managed it from day one to unlock the bootloader?

I was just curious when I was on the site and inserted a token from a post about a One X, and it sent me the email with the .bin file. That's why I'm curious about token uniqueness. I did try and scour the web about this, but with all the different variants of the ONE out there, it's hard to narrow it down.

Thanks :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Lykarsis:
Tokens are unique to each phone. Otherwise, unlock would be as easy as someone who unlocked on the first day of release sharing their token. This is unfortunately not the case.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sanders539:
They are unique for each phone. Devs have been trying to compare different tokens to see if they can figure out how to create tokens for the public, but that is looking impossible. Right now all we can do is send our phones off to sonic so he can work his javacard magic to get s-off.

Sent from my phone using an app
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Wyveryx:
I figured as much, but I guess it couldn't hurt to ask the question anyways. Too bad there's no way to edit the .bin file.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] 123421342:
You can but it's signed and editing it breaks the signature.

Somehow they are able to lock out vzw phones. The info in your phone would ID it as vzw. The One x would would have

info from another carrier.

sure look next to their name, it has an icon to show if you are online or not.

or click on their profile it tell you in there as well.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] one4thewings:
I can understand wanting an answer now. Often, I'll think of something to ask and wish I could immediately pick someone's brain. While I'm waiting for an answer sometimes my brain will just gravitate to that question. What if-this or What if-that.

With that being said there is someone here on the XDA forums that has a signature that says, 'Ask the questions in a thread, so everyone can benefit from the answers'. And I can understand his point. A private message only enlightens you. A forum post can benefit many.

Not to mention that it's common courtesy to give someone who helped you a THANKS, and you can't do that in PM.

Just my 2 cents.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jbizzle:

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
not HTC blocking us.

VERIZON is blocking us.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
I'm getting a weird issue (I know none of this works anyway but I want to make sure I can still use my PC to comm with the phone when root is ready) where when my phone is on, it's recognized in ADB, but when I'm in the bootloader, I get a malfunctioning USB device notice on my desktop and I can't access the phone anymore? What the hell is that? Any ideas?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] isdnmatt:
Sounds like the diagnostic driver is damaged or corrupt? Maybe uninstall the HTC drivers and reinstall? I switches from the ADB drivers to diagnostic drivers I believe when you enter fastboot.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
alright I'll try that. Thanks for the suggestion
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] replica9000:
Wish we had a tool like unRevoked that I used on my DInc. Unlocked and S-Off in one step without wiping the phone.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
Are you on latest SDK and have all that stuff up to date? also do you have the latest HTC drivers, I'm sure you do but, ya know, gotta ask and no one else did so don't kill the messenger. :cool:
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
ah the good ol' days haha.

unREVoked was the best
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] 123421342:
HTC got better at patching holes, so did qualcomm and everyone else involved. exploits are hard to find now dont complain and remember unrevoked took a long time(to research it), required a specific bootloader and used a good exploit that afaik is still a secret to most

I think you are:

1. Trolling

2. Lost

3. Not serious

4. Trying to get to 10 posts by posting the same thing in different fora

I just called a friend and options 1 and 3 are gone from the table, so you are either lost or trying to reach 10 posts...

Since I am feeling good today, I will assume that you are #2 and let you know that this is not the right forum. In fact, I am pretty sure we do not support that device on xda nor does it have a dedicated forum.

Having said that, there seems to be a thread about rooting and adding CWM on it

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40918233

You may want to ask the OP of that thread. Please don't post again unless the post has an actual purpose or else you will be infracted/banned.

Thank you.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Commmett:
Just got my HTC One about 2 - 3 weeks ago. Went to root it tonight and got to the token cracking stage on HTCDev.com

I know we've all tried this, nobody wants to hear my story. But, it didn't work in the end. Error code 160. I know we've all mentioned this and know that HTC or Verizon is blacklisting the tokens. Just wanted to contribute considering the last note was a couple months ago.

To sum it up, HTCDev.com is still producing Error 160. (For anyone who scrolling by this post)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] abrego47:
if you did rumrunner it unlocks it within the process! no need to go to htc.dev
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Commmett:
I tried rumrunner but it reported failed at downloading the update. I think that was the part. I assumed that I was using the program wrong...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] abrego47:
some people have reported that you may have to run it again and make sure firewall is disabled and htc is uninstalled! i have not used rumrunner yet because i sent mine to someone to get s-off via javacard. i was able to get it unlocked thru htcdev due to supercid. but when 4.3 is official and works with rumrunner i will go back to stock and root it again
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Commmett:
You said make sure HTC is uninstalled, what HTC?

Thank you, I'll give it another go tomorrow. Appreciate it.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] yojoe600:
They meant make sure HTC Sync is uninstalled.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Commmett:
Just tried it again. Last time I wasn't using the Verizon specific version. So, I downloaded that, disabled firewall, I have no ativirus. Uninstalled Samsung Kies. I never had HTS Sync, so that wasn't a problem. But, for some reason, I keep getting stuck here

FATAL: Download updated package at rumrunner . us
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Commmett:
I tried running Rumrunner on my laptop and it worked up to the packaging the rum. Then it said there was unexpected behaviour. I fixed that by switching to another version of Rumrunner. I should have been using the M7 versions. Whoops.

My bootloader is unlocked now!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alpinewil81:
Rumrunner - SU or FU

So, I've been trying to unlock and root my brand new HTC One. I'm having no luck. Tried the HTC Dev page and got to the MID Not Allowed error and that was that so now I'm trying the Rumrunner. When using it, it boots a few times then I get to a certain point on the that tells me I do not have an unsecured kernel and to "SU or FU"...

Is this due to a ROM version? I am Verizon and have heard of great success of the unlock in the previous versions. Not sure if it is something I've done or the version causing me heartburn. All I know is every phone I've had prior was cake... this thing is just giving me grief.

Any input is appreciated.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brholt6:
HTC Dev stopped working on the first day the phone was released. If you're on 4.2.2 there's rumrunner. If you're on 4.3 there's firewater. If you're on 4.4.2 you'll have to wait a bit.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alpinewil81:
Yeah, I was afraid of that. I am 4.4.2 with Sense 5.5. Software number is 3.11.605 1. :crying:

Why would HTC stop this anyway? They offered a Developer Edition 64GB phone because they pride themselves in providing a phone that an end user can modify and have some fun with. Outside the box thinking, that's what keeps me an HTC customer.

Is there a way to flash back to a previous version, say 4.3? Especially if you cannot unlock and root?... My mother-in-laws one is the previous version, maybe I should play with her phone. I doubt she'd let me...
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] brholt6:
It's Verizon that wants to keep the phone locked down. And unfortunately the only way to downgrade software is if you're s-off. I'm sure Beaups will have an updated method soon though.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] alpinewil81:
Man I hope so. I'm totally bummed that I couldn't do some customization to the unit. Don't get me wrong, it has much less bloat than any Verizon phone I've had in the past, but man... I just want it to be unique and not like the others I see around. I love the ability to minimize storage and clear the cache(s) at the push of a button. I currently miss it. My ReZound wasn't exactly a fast phone by today's standard, but at least it did everything I want.

I await a savior for root salvation :angel:

Thanks for chiming in guys! Much appreciated!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] trojanbrutha:
I just received an unlock.bin file earlier this week, so it worked for me recently :good:
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
Wow, blast from the past when this showed up in my subscribed list.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] abezzilla99:
So is it now possible to unlock with htcdev? How did you get that?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
Gonna guess you were super Cid or super mid.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] trojanbrutha:
True, I was super cid and I changed back to VZW__001 yesterday :o
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
Can't see how when it was Verizon that told HTC dev to stop unlocking their phones.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
His mid and cid didn't indicate to the site he was vzw
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
Ah makes sense
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
There is no external storage on the One. There is only one SD card.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] slacka-vt:
Derp, thanks for the clarification. At any rate, it sounds like you can't mount the phones storage to your PC while in recovery. That is what I was trying to convey to the other user.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Syn Ack:
Worked for me. Confirmed.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jfp2004:

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] slacka-vt:
I seriously hope that is not true. Getting mine tomorrow. Maybe try to prevent any update.

Sounds bogus to me. Its HTC that blocks it, not VZ. The Inc 4G was unlockable for about a week before it got nixed
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
How do you block an OTA?

---------- Post added at 08:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:26 PM ----------

That would totally suck.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] slacka-vt:
You got to click OK to allow the phone to reboot to install the OTA. Just don't click it until you've unlocked. Carefully that that the VZ rep doesn't do it for you in the store. Getting mine in the mail tomorrow. Was shipped overnight today.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
Bootloader unlock blocks OTAs right?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] 123421342:
This is correct. All new phones sadly use MTP and cannot be mounted as a mass storage device :( Has anyone tried running revone-p with root? i.e (after doing step 1 and 2 or whatever) get shell, su for root, then run ./revone -p?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mattmns:
I'm not very phone savvy but I just unlocked my Verizon HTC One 20ish minutes ago using the HTCDev site.

Now to figure out how to root :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] slacka-vt:
Thanks for the update. We should be good for at least a week before they pull the plug. *finger crossed* *knocks on wood*:eek:

You should be able to simply install superuser from the play store now. If not, you'll need to flash recovery and install the su binaries. Not too complicated.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mattmns:
Thanks for the info! Unfortunately just installing superuser didn't work - guess I'll look for the binaries and see what I can do.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Aeroscholar:
Just picked up my phone and unlocked as well. Very easy!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mpetruzz:
Took me about 5 minutes!! Wanted to do it before something changed and I'd be locked out, friggin Verizon!!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Syn Ack:
Somehow I managed to unlock it WITHOUT the tampered flag in the bootloader menu!

Whereas it always flagged "tampered" on the other HTC One's.

Anyone else?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Aeroscholar:
Same, mine just says unlocked :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GrayBoltWolf:
Doesn't tampered usually come after you flash a custom recovery?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Syn Ack:
You are correct. False alarm.

Hopefully we get S-Off for this relatively soon though.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] DaFunkyMex:
I am getting the same error. I did notice my phone was downloading something without me willingly downloading it. I'm afraid an OTA locked the bootloader
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jfp2004:
Another question:

If, for whatever reason, someone needed to take their phone in for warranty reasons, is there a way to de-root/relock the device? Mostly just curious. I haven't encountered any problems but it'd be nice to know for future reference.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] karn101:
That looks like the VZW One tokens have been blacklisted... Yikes.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] toronto_fuze:
Getting the same error here, no OTA! Guess Verizon blocked us already!!!!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GillRigged:
WTF. I ordered it right away over the phone but probably won't get it until Monday (live in a rural area). So, no S-OFF and now people aren't even able to use HTC Dev? I wonder if trying to unlock before even registering the phone would work. Damn it. I'm gonna be soooo pissed if I can't unlock it. And for what I want to do I'm gonna need S-OFF.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
Just fastboot oem lock... or relock. Should tell you the site.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] MultiDev:
Well, there is no S-Off from HTCdev, period. And you probably won't be able to unlock, since even the people who got it later in the day today, like myself, can't even unlock it.

Also, you can't register without the phone, cause you need the identification token, which you can only get from the phone during fastboot.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] GillRigged:
No no. I think you may have misunderstood me. Once I get the phone and having it register to the Verizon network, Fastboot and unlock (if that is possible). Unless, it is on HTC Dev's side then we're all SOL.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jntdroid:
I know a handful of great devs were not getting their One for a couple more days. Not that this is a surprise, but I wonder if this will discourage them from doing much on this device.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] slacka-vt:
Mine was shipped early yesterday afternoon. Should be here noon today. Before I do anything, I'm going to boot directly into the boot loader (power+volume down) and have a go at it. I'll report back.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Indirect:
It's not going to work. It's not an OTA that blocks it. It's on HTC's side. >_>

Why the hell do people always come up with crazy assumptions without any proper information?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:
Because nobody knows for sure... Link or lie pretty much. I can claim to be Barack Obama. Doesn't make it true. This is a society of pessimism.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] namsek:
Pardon my inexperience with HTC phones and rooting/unlocking in general... but with the HTCDev site no longer working, do we anticipate other ways of being able to unlock the phone, or are we basically dead in the water? I understand it only came out yesterday for VZW, I'm just curious :)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dspcap:
Just depends on whether devs work on it and they can find a solution.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] NotATreoFan:
I can only speak from my experience with the S3, but it seems that if you piss the developer community off enough, then workarounds come that much faster just because it's fun to cram it down their throat.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jova33:
Yeah, but check out the VZW S4 community. This is disheartening. I thought for a second VZW had given up their battle with the power users.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Indirect:
I'm trying to work on it but I need someone who has root to let me use teamviewer to get some files.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] overlord727:
No, I just sent him the code I got from HTCDev when I unlocked yesterday before the crackdown.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jova33:
Will that work? If I went out and bought an HTC One today, could I just use someone else's unlock code?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] overlord727:
No it wouldn't work like that. I forgot to say that I sent him the code because he wants to compare some peoples codes via a Hex Editor or something. If you try to use someone else's unlock code, it won't work.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] calebspronk:
If I can do something to help

I was one of the guys who unlocked the bootloader before the crackdown based on this thread saying it wouldn't take Verizon long to block it. If there's something I could do to help (as long as I won't be under too much risk of bricking my shiny new phone), don't hesitate to tell me what to do. Also, if there's a bounty anywhere for full S-Off, I'd be more than happy to pitch in. I just want to make sure this device won't be ignored by the hacking community now that the HTC Dev Unlock no longer works.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jntdroid:
No - that code is somehow tied to your unique device ID
