last set of questions i hope

yes awesome, thanks for the help and sorry for the noob, but i set up the fast boot and adb to my C: like scottys post. my question is will this work with what i said. Tampered, Locked, security warning, s-on with the new rom.zip? or will i be okay if my phone will go into the oem rebootruu?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kdj67f:
Yep, looks like knights665 had the same issue and got the ruu to flash successfully.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] drblast:
awesome. i will try it out when it downloads and ask questions as they come. thanks again
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kdj67f:
Good luck!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] scotty1223:
yes.

you cannot use the decrypted ruu

while s on!

use the SIGNED ruu for .10 ( http://nosroms.com/getdownload.php?...6_NV_VZW_3.71_002_release_334098_signed_2.zip )

and make sure its md5 sum is:

B5C5F869F0A9B946695D08AA5ACE9740

and if you just asked "whats an md5sum?" google it,then google "free md5 summer" pick one,download it and install on your pc so you can check the integrity of your files from now on.

sim card in or out during this process?

should i have the sim card out? does it matter?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kdj67f:
Either way, should not matter.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] scotty1223:
doesnt matter. you can take it out for some peace of mind if you want,but it will work fine either way. :)

I'm just glad that some folks here have verified the RUU's are good, signatures intact and flashing complete. This will definitely benefit all of us verizon users who may make a mistake trying to get back to stock!

How do i know if i need SU ?

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kdj67f:
If "adb shell" command doesn't return a # in the command line, simply typing "su" will return "$ #" meaning you have root access. See the screenshots and zoom in on the command line and look for the #.

Does this have to be done with the 605.8 RUU? I used the 605.10 and now Im stuck in the bootloader. Anyone help out here?

Cause now im stuck in the bootloader
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kdj67f:
Should work if your firmware versions matched. Are you bootlooping or just stuck at the ruu (black with HTC logo) screen?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] luniz7:
No boot loop. Just straight up stuck in the bootloader screen. Rebooting does nothing but boot back to the bootloader.

Ill upload a photo. Im thinking the issue is from going back to S-On?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kdj67f:
Did you use the links Scotty1223 posted to the SIGNED RUUs? Flashing the signed .10 RUU should put you all back to stock, including recovery. What steps did you perform to get to where you are at right now? What files are you using?

---------- Post added at 12:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------

And for future reference, I think the steps to turn S-on should be taken from the OP. So many people have inadvertently soft-bricked by turning s-on while locked with a custom recovery. Luckily we have signed RUUs to help this now.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] scotty1223:
Yup.

---------- Post added at 12:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 AM ----------

I agree.

The .10 ruu should be the savior until the next ota raises the main version and bootloader,and folks start getting stuck on that.

Not that I need to lock s-on but I do follow this forum one question I used JAVA CARD for s-off. Can it turn s-on?

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] one4thewings:
If you turn S-ON the Java Card makes no difference. You're back at square one. You either S-OFF by sending it back to Sonic or you S-OFF using Rumrunners. But it's not like the Java Card is some magic (always S-OFF) deal. It's a one time deal until you flip that switch back to S-ON.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Tigerstown:
I was asking cause seems like people are breaking there phone or were breaking. seem like using java card would have been better for them then f-up there phone is all . I know what java card is an how it works for turning s-off.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] scotty1223:
the bottom line is that people need to stop turning s on for no reason. even legitimate warranty claims,IMO its fine to send in a phone s off as long as its stock firmware/software and locked

s-off does not hinder any of the phones normal operating processes. it will boot and work fine,OTA just fine,etc. there is absolutely no advantage whatsoever to being s on.

if you java card s offed,and have not changed your funky MID back to stock vzw,then you likely wouldnt be stuck in the situation. you should still be able to get an unlock code and re-unlock. here is one situation where having used the java card and not changed you mid may work in someones favor.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Tigerstown:
I agree I have never wanted to go s-on lol as my setup is perfect I was simply asking. I changed my MID 1st thing before unlocked my phone. As I said I'm not in no situation I only wanted to know if java card could turn s-on instead of dping this process.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] agp423:
I can't find an app called "fastboot" or "adb setup" in Google Play store. Do those apps refer to "Fast Reboot" and "ADB Toggle"?

Also, what is S-Off, how do I know if my phone is S-Off, and if not, how do I make it S-Off?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kdj67f:
Fastboot and adb are programs that are run from a computer to communicate with your phone. They require drivers, command line interface and some knowhow. They are not horribly hard or complicated, but can hose your phone if you don't know what you are doing.

S-off refers to the security check the phone performs when loading software or booting up etc... S-off means security off. If you power off your phone, then hold the volume down button while powering it back on, it will bring up the bootloader. The screen will tell you software version, s-off (or s-on) amongst allowing you to select different boot states. Most useful being fastboot mode (where you use the fastboot program) and recovery (where you load roms and such).

Check this thread, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=46183050 , first post where Scotty1223 has some instructions on setting up adb and fastboot. Very good instructions. Scotty is the man.

But before you load your phone using ODIN try wiping the cashe partition and do a factory reset from 3e recovery first and see if it helps.....to get into 3e recovery you need to power off the phone and then hold the volume up, power, and home buttons till you see blue letters in the top left of the screen then release the buttons..it will take you to recovery
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kroke22:
thanks malebornin69;

although I think it is the same as already installed with Odin. I have done the reset but does not work for 3e.

I think the 3e is wrong (see photo)
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] malebornin69:
I dont understand what you mean it does not work for 3E.....there are 2 things you need to do use the volume buttons to move down to wipe cashe and then press the power button...once that has finished use the volume buttons to move down to factory reset and press the power button again and wait for it to finish then reboot the phone
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] kroke22:
I installed this md5 and not work, it stays in the same place.

Also comment that if I try to do "wipe cache partition" always fails (see photos)

I'm baaaaack

I might have a solution we can actually use...

Download and install Samsung Kies 2.6.1.13105_6, and after installing plug in your SGH-I527 while in Download mode (Switch off and power your device in Download Mode by pressing and holding Volume Down + Home + Power buttons together until you see a Warning screen. Then press Volume Up button to enter into download mode):)

If Odin detects your device, it’s ID:COM box will turn yellow and show a port number. If not, then try reinstalling USB drivers or plugging your device into a different port

Download and extract Odin, inside you will find Odin3 v1.85.exe along with the .pit file (Partition Information Tables) Samsung_I527_PIT.PIT. Run it as Administrator. Click on PIT button and browse to the .pit file and hit 'open' or 'select'. LINK TO DOWNLOAD FILE

Download the included ROM file named something like I527UCUAMK2_I527ATTAMK2_I527UCUAMK2_HOME.tar.md5. On Odin, click on PDA button and browse to said file.

Make sure that the Re-partition, F. Reset time and Auto Reboot boxes are checked in ODIN.

Once everything is set, press the Start button to begin flashing procedure. *****DON’T INTERRUPT THE FLASHING PROCEDURE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, OTHERWISE YOUR DEVICE MAY GET HARD BRICKED******

IF FLASHING FAILS FOR ANY REASON, TAKE OUT THE BATTERY AND POWER IT BACK UP INTO DOWNLOAD MODE, THE PLUG IN THE USB TO THE COMPUTER AND START KIES, THEN GO TO TOOLS-EMERGENCY FIRMWARE RECOVERY

Now hand over the bounty!!! Lol!

Thank me if this works, and puff puff pass it on!

NOTE: CURRENTLY UPLOADING THE FIRMWARE TO MY GOOGLE DRIVE, THEN YOU CAN DOWNLOAD IT SINCE ITS OVER 1GB.

If it fails, try without the PIT file and uncheck the repartition box in ODIN.

Yea and by updating to it right now you will be locked down worse than before. Seeing as close as there are to unlocking boot and recovery availability it might be wise to just wait.

== Introducing modstrings! ==

Modstrings are a way to modify the exploit parameters for your obscure phone.

This is only if your device can't be towelrooted.

Click "welcome to towelroot v3" 3 times and enter text.

1337 method(0-3), align(0-1), limit_offset(0-8191), hit_iov(0-7), temp_root(0-1)

method: which syscall is used in the blocking thread, try them all

align: which alignment to use for the iovs, try them all

limit_offset: 0 is probably the right value here, otherwise close to the samsung value and a multiple of 4

hit_iov: which iov to overwrite to cause block

temp_root: do a temp root putting su and daemonsu in /sbin, good for HTC and Motorola, doesn't fix exploit

To fix, align and method are probably your best bet(4*2=8 values), hit_iov maybe, limit_offset if you are desperate.

== Examples ==

Most phones: "1337 0 1 0 4 0"

New Samsung: "1337 0 1 7380 4 0"

Temp root: "1337 0 1 0 4 1"
