I was in the same boat last night. Don't give up - I can vouch that it works for Win 8, as I am running Windows 8 64 bit myself. I asked earlier about driver versions but nobody confirmed. I went ahead anyway and it worked flawlessly.

You can get just the drivers from Scotty's post here - look under part 1 - Set up ADB. No need to mess with HTC sync.

I am finally s-off. I am getting the message "this build is for development purposes only..." Is that from flashing the boot.img? Is yours doing this?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Aggies1288:
Yeah im stuck right now ive been searching and looking for help but havent had any luck yet maybe we will get some good news soon.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] pRuben:
For everyone that have issues with the patch, some phones just don't play well with it. I think. I guess some kinks will be iron out soon.. can't wait for my s-off :)

( so far, tried 4 computers, win 7, 8 and currently Ubuntu Live CD. Multiple usb cables, all prerequisites either turned off or on, no lock screen, format of the os from the fastboot level.. everytime it hangs on Waiting for fastboot (8/120). If anyone has suggestions, they will be warmly welcomed )

yes this happens to everyone when i wrote my guide to go back to stock it went away so i believe if you flash the decrypted ruu it will reflash hboot leaving you s-off and unlocked but with the normal hboot with out that message

I'm really fed up, unable to even get the pouring message. I tried downloading Andy's Odexed rom but it fails during flashing so I'm using Bonestock 1.1 because there are no other stock roms available, I flashed boot.img and recovery_signed.img but I always get stuck on the second adb/fastboot...and says "ERROR: run rumrunner again." For the MD5 for the odex I have 504cb25d74de5964ee60a0c7745e749a

Here's the error I get flashing Andy's Odexed Rom

Tried this to the penny but didn't work (saw this in another forum)
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] andybones:
If you are so fed up, please

feel free to make your own stock based ROM and your own S-OFF exploit.

If ROM failed during flashing, I put money the ROM didn't download fully.

I'll add an MD5 to help make it easier.

this exploit works

if the user (you) can't get it to work,

who's to blame?

..you..

Posts like these have got to be so annoying to the creators, I had nothing to do with this project and it ticks me off.

You are just trying to get S-OFF, these guys created this. You are using work from free from people who use THEIR free time to accomplish these things.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] thewahlrus:
Works great. Easy just follow the directions and wait. Thanks!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
It's a known fact that any exploit used there will be people to have issues with it. Problem is it's hard to tell what's causing the problem as most likely it will be different for each. Same goes with roms it's hard to say what the issue is. Why when I have an issue I redownload it or if there is a mirror site I try there.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] AznInertia:
Okay, finally got it to work. I downloaded Andy's DEODEXED rom and used this instruction. Everyone kept saying use the odexed rom but I wasn't able to flash it and its frustrating because there aren't any stock ROMs available. I tried Andy's bonestone using this instruction but doesn't work.

Use this method if you did HTCDev unlocked first day like myself. Sorry to sound like a whiner but it was frustrating to do all this after 4-5 hrs of trying. Feel free to PM me if you need links to the deodex vzw rom/boot.img/stock recovery that I used.

Flashed stock deodex vzw rom

Flashed stock boot img

Flashed stock recovery

Made sure usb debugging was on

Made sure verifying apps was off

Made sure fastboot was off

Made sure no lock screen was selected

Actually I paid my $20 bounty to Sean. I think I earned the right to complain a little bit if it isn't working for me.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] AznInertia:
Yes, the issues I heard from are typically the dev-unlocked because its not apparent which stock rom works or not (I believe I tried around 4). On top of that there were some stock threads that we all found prior but all those links didn't work. Thankfully andybones has a deodexed stock version that works which is the one I used to get S-OFF. People kept saying flash boot.img or recovery images but trying to search through all the threads to find it was time consuming but thankfully with the help of various people I was able to find all of them.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] fronc:
Just finished the process. Worked on the second attempt. Brought a lil' tear to my eye when it was done. This.... is glorious.

I will be unlocking this weekend so I can have my wife's phone to tether beings you need an internet connection. Would take the laptop to mcd but doubt they want to hear me cuss when it doesn't work right and I have to grumble as I troubleshoot to make it work lol.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] beaups:
Perhaps people are missing it in OP, but support for this exploit is available on IRC. So, there is free support available for those who need it.

The pouring 1: wtf issue seems to be common for .10 users and I still haven't been able to 100% identify the cause, but we WILL get it fixed. It's certainly some crappy code compounded with conditions on pc/device. Most users get past that by using 1.) linux 2.) factory resetting the device. Further support can be had on irc.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dobo84:
I did mine on a windows 8 64 bit... No issue installed adb fresh on to the C drive. Installed java.. Unzipped the rumrunner tested it first to make sure it opened no phone connected. Verified adb could see my device vice versa.... Did a test reboot into recovery.. Disabled fire wall.. And let rumrunner do its thing. My drivers came from PDA net but PDA was never actually installed. The batch file does what it says... If you still have a issue it might be between the chair and keyboard

Finally worked weird. Did same steps yesterday just flashed twrp and I guess it worked
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sacnotsack:
If it isn't working for you there might be something you're not doing right. Just because you donated doesn't really give you the "right" to complain. As stated earlier just because an exploit is found and works for most doesn't mean it will work for all. Too many variables in play that can make things go wrong. Besides that not every phone is going to respond the same way. Just my thoughts.

Sent from the HTC One and only
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Dark Jedi:
Just want to add if it's not working it's on your end. As the exploit itself has been proven to work. So don't come on here saying the exploit doesn't work.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] chip.hughes:
I have it downloaded. Will it wipe the phone? I unzipped it, has anyone tried just flashing the boot_signed.img that is included?

Just One Question sorry if this a noob question, but this is my first HTC Device that i will root and try this method, i have rooted and unlocked other devices before, but im confused if "S-OFF" is required to be rooted first?:confused:

I have everything ready (ADB,SDK).

Im on 100% stock rom with no root and bootloader locked, is it safe to do this? :rolleyes:

Thank you!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] cstrife999:

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] fullmetal509:
Worked on the First Try!!!!! Thank you team for this! just a silly question? do i have to unlock the bootlocker? or did this method unlocked it for me? i know how to root just asking!

Process took about 10-15 minutes long had "pouring" at 6 times, if that helps anyone, just be patient

:victory::highfive:
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dashbored:
I believe the process unlocks your bootloader and roots it too in addition to S-off.

ok just a quick question , if i restore my backup of day one on stock rom and do this can i then restore my back up of bonestock that i made today . in other words do i have to set my whole phone up again , i tried doing it the way it is now and it didnt work so i will try going back to stock and see if that works
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ppd0526:
Just wanted to give a heads up on the steps I took to use this on two different HTC One devices using two different computers. One computer was running windows 7 64 bit while the other was running Windows 8 64-bit. I followed the same steps on both and it worked flawlessly. Before following these steps, I spent the better part of yesterday trying this on two HTC One devices. I could not get the soju to run properly. I was getting either the group of .......... on one HTC One or stuck at pouring(3) on the other HTC One. I also got the pouring(1) straight to WTF what are you doing?

Step by Step:

Uninstall any existing version of HTC Sync/HTC Drivers/etc. And be sure to unplug your phone and keep it unplugged.

Install the HTC Sync Manager from here (http://www.htc.com/www/software/htc-sync-manager/)

Uninstall everything from the HTC Sync Manager except for the Drivers.

Install minimal adb and fastboot from (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=42407269) and make sure to install to C:\adb

Extract the attached proper version of the soju tool to C:\adb as well

Start command prompt as administrator (start button, type cmd, hold ctrl + shift and hit enter, click yes on prompt)

Navigate to C:\adb by typing: cd C:\adb

Keeping the command prompt open from here on, plug your phone in and wait for Windows to install drivers.

Once Windows finishes, type: adb devices in the command prompt. Make sure that your device shows up.

Type: adb reboot-bootloader

Once your phone is in boot loader mode again, go to your phone and scroll to Fastboot and hit the power button to boot into fastboot.

Once in fastboot, back on the computer, wait for Windows to install drivers again

Once Windows finishes, type: fastboot devices in the same command prompt. Make sure your device shows up.

Type: fastboot reboot

Wait for your phone to back into normal mode

Run soju by typing: soju.exe

And now simply follow the instructions for soju

Let me know if this helps you.

Thanks. I'll try this out and let you know if it worked. I've tried on linux (64bit ArchLinux w/ [multilib] packages and 32bit Ubu 13.04) and windows 7 (64-bit) and I get the same error every time. The WTF: What are you doing? right after pouring(1).

It must be my phone so I'll do a full factory reset, skip setup (I think that's what's getting me), turn off "Fast Boot" and "Sleep Mode" in Power settings, turn display to 10 minutes in Display, turn off lockscreen in Personalize, disable any kind of lockscreen lock, turn on "Untrusted Sources", turn off "Verify Apps", turn off Daydream, and then follow your instructions on my Win7 64bit.

If this doesn't work, I might even go so far as to wipe an old laptop and reinstall windows on it just to get a clean environment to do this all from. I NEED S-Off like now but, if it comes to it, I can, of course, grow some patience and let [MENTION=711482]beaups[/MENTION] and friends to iron out the bugs in soju; after all, they deserve a freaking medal for getting us to this point in the first place.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] ppd0526:
I didn't have to wipe my phone or anything. Using those steps, I was able to do it on my current phone keeping everything.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] bericp1:
From a software developer's point of view, I assume it's so that the tool (soju) can update itself so that there are never any bad/old/buggy versions lying around for people to accidentally brick their phones with. I am kind of interested though so I might do some Wireshark sniffing when I get home.

---------- Post added at 08:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

Yea, I'll try it without wiping first; I just feel as though there's one app I have installed that's interfering with the ADB as Android boots and it's tripping up soju.

So I just uninstalled and re-installed all of my drivers for adb and HTC because they haven't worked right for about a year now. I confirmed adb and fast boot devices show my phone. If someone could answer this in the next few minutes I will try running the tool before bed. Do I NEED internet connection to RUN the tool? If not, I can run it now. I do not have internet at my house yet. All I can do at the moment is tether from my phone.

I've been at this for about 10 minutes. I checked adb devices and fastboot devices, and they both showed my device. Is there something else I might need to do?

It's weird, when the phone is in fastboot mode, the device manager shows a yellow triangle with an exclamation point, but it's also showing correctly when I do fastboot devices.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] TidusWulf:
It doesn't hurt to try. the program is smart enough to back out if weirdness happens. the only way this can screw up your phone is if you sever the connection to the phone at a critical moment (unplug phone, shut down the PC, etc.).
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Antny6:
Go into '/system/app' from a file explorer, and if your on an odex rom, there will be " *.odex " files for each app (in addition to " *.apk " files-- if there are only " *.apk " files, your ROM is deodexed.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] crazyg0od33:
thats where I was stuck. I would recommend EVERYONE at least TRY a linux live usb. you dont need to worry about any drivers or outside software interfering.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] tedescop:
^^^^^This is the best advice for anyone with issues.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] sanders539:
Tried running it this morning to no avail. The tool checks for updates. That is one of the first things it does. I tried using pdanet for it check updates with, then turn it off after that step. That didn't fool it. Oh well, I will just have to carry my PC to my in-laws and hook up there...

And thank you devs for this! This is very much appreciated in this community. This post is by no means a complaint, as I know the OP says to have internet, it is more for reference for other users.

I also agree with this, I ran RR with Linux Mint 15 without any drama or problems. I ran it once and 10 minutes later it was done without 1 problem. I would definitely encourage everyone with problems to boot with a Linux live USB and give it a try.

If your not familiar with Linux here is a small guide.

-boot into Linux Mint via boot-able media (Live USB/ Installation CD- "just select try it out-don't install"

-Plug the One into the USB, make sure it sees the devise. "now on mine it would bring up the internal storage window followed by an error window disregard the error box"

-Download RR for your system version.

-Once downloaded leave it in the Download folder.

-Right click--- select extract the archive in the current folder.

-Once all this is done bring up terminal

-Enter the command cd download/the name of the unpacked folder goes here

-Then enter sudo ./soju

-Follow the on screen prompts sit back and relax.

-As the One reboots for the exploit the error window and internal storage window will keep propagating this is normal let them go or close them out either or.

-Mine took 3 pours

I did this with Mint 15 but Ubuntu will work the same since Mint uses Ubuntu's base.

Just wanted to pop in and say thanks to beaups for getting the .2 version out so quickly after I forwarded him some info from my One.

I did a factory reset, ran rumrunner for .2, factory reset again, used the decrypted RUU do bring myself to .8, relocked and put back s-on, factory reset, ran rumrunner for .8, took the OTA, relocked and s-on again, factory reset, and ran rumrunner for .10...

Overkill, I know, but I will confirm that all 3 work, and on Win8 x64. HTC Sync is still installed, but I don't use it. MS Antivirus and firewall are at their defaults. I put the rumrunner files in the same directory as the adb and fastboot executables in my Android SDK installation. I guess my setup was already perfect otherwise... I had no issues.

I did encounter an issue while loading the RUU. Taking my phone out of the Mophie JuicePack case took care of that. I would recommend that anyone with a battery case who is having issues also do the same, just as an extra precaution.

Stuck on 'really dumb issues...'

I seem to be stuck in a sort of no-man’s-land. I ran the tool 3 times, getting stuck on ‘pouring’ each time. Then I tried again and got ‘really dumb issues you have. you suck.. ERROR: run rumrunner again’ (attached). Each time that I’ve tried since then, I get that same error.

When I boot to recovery, I can see that I’m unlocked and have S-OFF (attached), but I don’t have root access. So it seems that the tool ran part but not all of its process. Now something is preventing it from picking back up.

I think the best thing to do is to get myself back to where I started, which was stock and unrooted, and start over. The trouble is that I’m not sure exactly how to do that. I was thinking of following part of bmt626’s guide here, although I’m not sure exactly how much of it or what parts apply to my situation. I was trying to do this without wiping my phone, but that may not be possible.

I’ve tried three Windows machines and they all say the same thing. I have a Linux box that I could try next. In the meantime, any suggestions would be appreciated.
