Nothing. Just like they say it won't work. The old Firewater versions won't work either. The difference with the newer ones is that it checks that your phone can use the exploit. If it won't work it just won't try. The older versions would keep trying again and again and again. But it would never work. That's why it was updated. So you would know straight away whether it would work on your phone..unless someone comes up with something new you just can't s off

S-off caught at boot loop

Dear All,

Desperate for your help.

I have my friends HTC one M7 at &T mode. My friend has meddled with it and now it is in a nasty boot loop.

I would like to install a new rom to make it work, however we are not sure if he has enabled debugging mode. When ever we try install a rom through SD card it gives me an error signature verfication failed.

My objective is to make phone work again, i though the first step is to s-off. Can you please help me how to s-off and also how to enable debugging mode without switchin on.

Looking forward for you reply.

Regards

Vijay
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nateboi81:
You need a working Rom for debugging mode. Plus debugging mode only works when the Rom is running so it is useless anywhere else. Your recovery probably has an option to disable signature verification somewhere in the settings

Has anyone out there who got the "whelp" message in firewater, or "pouring" eight times in rumrunner gotten S-OFF after changing something? I'm afraid that those of us who this is happening to are basically at a dead end, unless there is something that can possibly work.

Hey guys ,just stubled upon this thread i see you guys have the same problem as i am. I tried every solution from every thread. From what i know those who have CID number that begins with 9001 it is imposible to gain S-OFF. I am too in the same position. You could check this fact using eMMC checker from playstore. Anyone with this combo of hboot 1.56 + CID number : 9001 gained S-OFF ? let me know

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scath:
I was having similar issues on 1.56 with my AT&T HTC One. I still have not achieved S-OFF but I switched to a laptop and used a ubuntu live cd to install everything needed for adb etc. I then tried Viper Rom, now it says Wait 30 seconds, power on device, pray, run rumrunner again.

- instead of it saying something super negative like last time.

I really believe configuration T has to do with the computer you're on as well and what OS it is running. I would seriously just get a VMWare Player or something and try multiple virtual machines like linux distributions and install whats necessary. Try many different roms.

So far I've tried 2 different ARHD roms 31.6 and 71.1 with Elemental Kernal 14.10 and 14.12 on Windows 8.1 Pro and it kept failing I tired for 6 hours. Then today I installed ubuntu 14.10 and I have been tinkering with that, so far much better responses since switching to Viper Rom latest for AT&T. Now it is a matter of finding the right kernel by elemental. the 14.10 caused issues.

I will update people and creeate a thread, not for s upport, and let everyone know what I did that might work.

I have two HTC Ones both AT&T but one is 1.57
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luccos:
I want to share my experience with S-off hboot 1.56 I have tried dozens of times Rumrunner with W7 and W8 I even installed Xubuntu 14.10 on an Eeepc 1005 and the result has always been more or less the same as 1.2, 3.4, etc and at the end using a Kernel Unsecure fit your Rom ... this morning I wanted to try again ... Firewater time a copy and paste of the instructions and in a flash I said ..... Ok if now S-Off, I could not believe I went to the Bootloader disbelief, and there was real S-OFF. In fact I had already tried Firewater but a few months ago and with other roms (Sense). My current setup is CM11 Version M7 (M11 not because I do not work with the hands-free microphone) Kernel teamseven-CM11 v.2.3.6c10, OS, PC and W8.1-64Bit

I apologize for my English is translated by Google
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] halfevildruid:
This was quite the job finding out what works. I finally achieved s-0ff at&t m7 4.xxx.xx using Ubuntu 14.04 64bit LTS, viperROM / elementalx kernel / TWRP 2.8.0.1. All windows and ubuntu 32bit failed as well.

Rumrunner continued to fail along with firewater over and over regardless of rom/kernel combo. Key was using terminal with the proper SU permissions. This is NOT simply sudo ./soju! 14.04 requires sudo typed at every command. root must be installed and then logged in and enabled at the user terminal. The proper switches must be tripped to allow ALL commands and executes during that term session before opening adb shell or executing soju.

install root to system ubuntu with sudo apt-get (google is your friend)

install 32bit libraries

from your command line cd <your directory>

sudo -i

sudo -l

(you will see output containg ALL/ALL)

Once you have done this you should see root@blahblah/directory# (# important - is root)

you can then follow firewater instructions...

firewater (preferred) and/or rumrunner don't really care about what hboot you are running, in general they care about having

1- a rooted ROM

2- with unsecured kernel (ie w/p off)

3- ^^ (1)+(2) close to your firmware

4- adbd su granted

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nkk71:
you're just making things hard on yourself!!

if you really want to test everything, then you have to:

1- go to bootloader, verify "fastboot devices"

2- boot up custom recovery, verify "adb devices", if OK, then check "adb shell" gives a # prompt

3- boot up ROM, verify "adb devices", if OK, then "adb shell" gives a # or $ prompt, issue "su" and check for any su access on your phone, and after su make sure the shell gives a # prompt

4- to check unsecured kernel, edit something in /system/build.prop, reboot, if your edit sticks = unsecured kernel

5- remember you need "Settings -> Dev options -> USB debugging enabled", and "Settings -> Power -> Fast boot disabled"

this is really overkill

a few notes to remember which may help, 1 make sure debugging is enabled, 2 make sure you accept the request in superuser (I made this mistake by not seeing it to allow) so set superuser to accept all incoming request automatically IMPORTANT otherwise rumrunner and firewater will fail halfway trough as they need superuser permissions, 3 make sure the time out on screen is never or max and there is no lock, ......and last look out for the key on the phone screen to allow communication between phone and pc and select allow always. ... hope this helps because I overcome these obstacles in when rumrunner and firewater never work and failed in the same way you are describing... good luck
