Sorry, I just edited my above post. I am no expert with HTC Devices but I read that the process includes flashing a Sense 5 based kernel that eventually enables this S-Off to be accomplished. So there has been quite a lot of stress on the point of being Stock in order to accommodate the kernel. Considering it fails after fastboot, my guess is that maybe it fails after flashing the kernel? Sorry but my knowledge is limited and I myself have run into a few kinks... Just a few steps ahead of u though :P

in which percent must be the battery that the program can run? under 50%?
[One (M7) General] fareed_xtreme:
There is no such requirement that I am aware of. Just need enough battery to stay on as u will be on USB the whole time.

Well that link didnt help me out alot, lol ... What am I suppose to do with it?
[One (M7) General] firaX:
Has anybody sent them 2.24.206.7 (O2) OTA file? I can't do it, cause i am already on that version (after a repair..), but if you update your phone manually, the file will be on your SDCARD... Please somebody send them the OTA zip file.
[One (M7) General] fareed_xtreme:
If you read the thread patiently, you will come across a procedure on how to request rumrunner support for firmwares not on the list.

If you mainver is not listed, please contact [email]rumrunnerdevs@gmail.com[/email] with firmware version AND a link to the corresponding RUU and/or firmware ota package.

All the best.
[One (M7) General] exocetdj:
ok, meeting all the requirements for s-off i.e stock rom etc

rumrunner does some checks on adb automatically after t&c and then reboots into bootloader to check adb then back from bootloader to main rom to adb at which point my computer does not recognise adb anymore, furthermre adb doesnt start functioning until a reboot of my laptop. has anyone else experienced this/ knows a workaround?
[One (M7) General] manups4e:
I'm in 2.24.901.1 CID TIM_401 and i'm s-offed using 2.24.401.1 thank youuuuuuuuu!!!! :D :D :D
[One (M7) General] firaX:
Do they actually mean FIRMWARE, as in firmware.zip, which we cannot change without S-OFF, or do they just mean "ROM VERSION", which we can change simply flashing a different rom after HTC Unlock?
[One (M7) General] Stephen:
Yes your rom version needs to match the file you download because of the partition layout. I would check the firmware you are on and see what it is, then download the rom to match your firmware version.
[One (M7) General] sopaj96:
There is no ota or rom or ruu for that version (2.24.771.3)

Can I use a stock 2.24.401.8 and flash it with root (recovery) and then do it? Is that possible?
[One (M7) General] firaX:
I am on Stock 2.24.206.7 + 2.24.206.7 firmware.zip, all official, nothing changed. I cannot change the firmware.zip. Question is can i just unlock the phone, install a stock 401 Rom and get S-OFF? It's a bit unclear. If it's only about the unsecure kernel, then FIRMWARE shouldn't really matter?!
[One (M7) General] Nightf0x_007:
i am on 2.24.707.1 i found a frimware.zip about 40 mb is that file what they want ?
[One (M7) General] fareed_xtreme:
Seems like the Post 464 shows that this method that you suggest is possible. If I was you, I would wait for the OP or any other experienced dev to comment on this as I am new to HTC and shuffling firmwares like that is something that I have no idea of.
[One (M7) General] Jonny:
Settings > Developer options > enable USB debugging

the default setting of adb is false (off) for htc and sometimes turning it on does not make it persistent over a reboot.

Mine is persistent... But I end up having loopie loop loop 8 times before it fails.

Pouring didnt seem to help me understand what it was trying to do at all. Just that the device reboots 8 times
[One (M7) General] Jonny:
what mainver are you and what ROM are you using?
[One (M7) General] fareed_xtreme:
Fastboot Mainver command returns 2.24.401.8

As per the requirements/Pre-Reqs, I have done the following

1. Completely stock Firmware

2. Disabled Firewalls and Bypassed Antivirus Software.

3. HTC Sync Manager was never installed

4/ HTC Drivers are installed as I fastboot kernels and adb install and uninstall apks quite often.

[Additionally I am on Windows 8, using a custom recovery and kernel (I believe kernel gets flashed to execute this hack) and also rooted]

Tried twice, This is what is happening for a while.
[One (M7) General] Jonny:
Yep, same here... my theory is htc rw protection but do not take my word for it, that is only a theory. A lot of people seem to be having problems with the guru reset ROM so I'm hunting around for a ROM that works.
[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
When I did this, uh.. When beaups did this for me in Teamviewer. I was first on InsertCoin 4.3 with a custom kernel, and that threw bootloops so I flashed mike's stock 2.24.401.8 and I was already on the 2.24 firmware and then it worked like a charm. I had root.
[One (M7) General] fareed_xtreme:
Ok... Mike's Stock 2.24.401.8 FTW... Gonna head down to the Search Department for a bit...

I have a question for Linux, fastboot only works when i put sudo in front of the command like

sudo fastboot devices

Without nothing happens. Does this "Soju" thingy use "sudo" in front of every command its using?
[One (M7) General] maarawoe:
Using sudo can't hurt but I believe soju does have its own fastboot binary packed.....
[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
It's because you haven't set the proper permissions for the adb and fastboot binaries.
[One (M7) General] exocetdj:
ok adb drivers working fine on mrs's laptop, ran rumrunner and got past pouring (8) and it stopped and said to run again, am doing that now, hopong will work!
[One (M7) General] Atrax_:
Do you know how i can do that?
[One (M7) General] exocetdj:
do we also need htc drivers on top of fastboot and adb??
[One (M7) General] Theshawty:
chmod a+rw should be enough, methinks.

You need latest drivers but no sync :)

Ok, so with FIRMWARE 2.24.206.7 & same ROM it doesnt work under ubuntu, gets stuck after pouring 8 times. I installed ROM 401.1, same result. I think FIRMWARE 206.7 simply doesnt work with the atm available tools. I hope someone can send them the OTA file for O2 Firmware.

[One (M7) General] Jonny:
I didn't need to change ROM as the exploit isn't in the ROM per say, its the mainver thats important and a mainver (firmware) of .8 caused excess liquid to be used but mainver .1 is just right :cowboy:

What must really matter is last digit. We need a .7 build, as .1 and .8 don't work on that firmware. I can't use 401.1 either cause cid doesn't match :/

There seems to be an issue on 2.24.401,8.

Mine is a few days old with root and TWRP recovery and unlocked bootloader (HTCdev). Other than that it's an unbranded stock phone on 2.24.401,8.

I get no errors at all other than the pouring (9) then the exit and wait. No damage at all. I went down the check list a few times just in case I missed something but all the boxes were ticked. Tried Windows 7 and 8 both with no FW or AV and certainly no other phone software other than the needed drivers.

Someone mentioned a stock version of this from Mike 1986 (Revolution HD) but I can't find it. Can you link to it please?

I'm at work now so I'll gather the files and give it a go tomorrow, it's beer night tonight so might be best not to try it after a few ;)

Thanks again for all the hard work.

EDIT: Just noticed an updated version on the rumrunner site for 2.24.401,8. I'll try this shortly and report back.

if it's not working you need to try and totally re-flash everything. RUU is best but as we know there's no 2.24.401 RUU's so you have to do best you can to match what it would do.

ahh ok so you need to use google translate from now on to translate lol....

this is the English for your post, or closer to anyway "So when I open runrunner, I click yes to start the process but it does nothing keeps asking me to say yes or no. please do that?"

And the answer to your question is you need to type Yes exactly as it's written in order to start the process... You can't click select anything in a terminal window....

In French "Et la réponse à votre question est que vous devez taper Oui, exactement comme il est écrit dans le but de lancer le processus ... Vous ne pouvez pas cliquez sur Sélectionner tout dans une fenêtre de terminal ...."

Hi guys,

i m on h.boot: 1.54 & International GSM. Recently i flashed ARHD 30.0 by mike@1986.

Build Version: 3.57.401.500

Android version 4.3

I have seen that there is a new exploit to get S-Off on Hboot 1.54 by rumrunner.

I wanted to know the following as i m confused:

- In order to get it done we need to be on earlier firmware version may be 1.29 or 2.24 so how to go back to previous version? I have taken nandroid of my stock when i flashed TWRP, so can i just to restore of my stock nandroid to get back to the previous version?

(3) Understand that irc support IS NOT A GENERAL HELPDESK

(4) Are able to identify and download the CORRECT package for YOUR device

(5) Know how to enable USB-debugging on YOUR device (Yes, do that now)

(6) Understand that you may NOT repack or redistribute rumrunner S-OFF
