make sure correct firewater file and temp root file

Sheetzie03 when you say

( Edit:

Well I dl on my pc, I clicked on it and it immediately asks what I want to open the file with).

what did you download?

anyways don't know if this will help but on the second method when you go to download link and it takes you to the site in question their are two places you can download the two files which are firewater and temp root.make sure you download the firewater and temp root files from the instructions/download page as ive noticed that if you try and download from another part of the site it will take you to some other link and thats not what you want.

also make sure the two files temp root and firewater are in the same folder as the adb file.

also you may be prompted on your phone to agree with usb debugging which may appear on your phone when you start the command prompts.just accept or ok if that appears on your phone when you start the command prompts.

may need to try method again again after usb debugging prompt if any error.

Good luck

check in device manager still showing your device ?

Try update driver manually for locating programs folder / HTC folder

Or try naked Google driver

If you worried for your data make sdcard backup internal data make adb backup then

Then try 1 st method

[One (M7) General] Sheetzie03:
Ty for the reply.

At first I didn't know what I was suppose to do when I downloaded the firewater file.( from step 1 directions) but I quickly realized the download simply a 'file'. At first I thought the Firewater download was like an .exe file where you click on it and 'run' it after its downloaded lol But I'm almost 100% I downloaded the correct thing.

Secondly, you mention about option 2 temp root option. I was under the impression that option 2 temp root option was for those who are not already HTC dev unlocked rooted, which I already am. So how would trying the second option help in my case?

Like I said above and showed in the pic, it lets me Run all the proper commands, and I get to where it says about opening bottle number 1.....chugging, and then that's it(in pic from my original post)

And I tried 3 times in a row all with no luck.

Again thank u, I hope to figure this out eventually in the next couple days.

Hello sir, thank u your help, helps me out so much.

One thing I didn't think about is if the drivers were installed or updated correctly. I didn't physically go into device manager while I was doing it, but it appeared my pc was recognizing my pc as it should. I will try what you said regarding updating the drivers manually. I don't know what naked Google driver is tho. I will Be giving it a 2nd shot either later on today or tomorrow, I will post back. Again, ty for your help. I KNOW. I won't be able to get this done without help from this community.

Just to be clear I am on hboot 1.55

And already HTC dev unlocked and rooted.( as I understood because I'm on 4.4.2 and unless I want to go back to 4.2 , Firewater option 1 is what I need to get S-Off)

[One (M7) General] ac3kill:
So I had to unlock and root for Forrester to work .

Temp root worked but wouldn't s off with fire water or Att stock Rom oh well i dont care bout warranty I'll never send my phone. In to HTC ever again after doing 3 times to get a new good camera and unit just to have battery crap out 3 months later my new one oh serial ht42

Old one was ht34 so I think I'll be good camera is way better in this one even after old one was fixed .

Aparebtly it works for some and not others from what I have seen you have a better chance with second method if you dont have Windows 8.1 my brother did his on his Mac no problem on complete stock . I'll get another phone of this one craps out or claim warranty before I send to htc and have to deal with them

Also stuck on 1.57 from o2 repair centre, firewater wont work :(
[One (M7) General] rfgamaral:
Here's my report on this tool:

I want to make two points first:

I just got my device from warranty and before unlocking or try to get s-off I looked into the bootloader and it said *** TAMPERED *** and *** LOCKED ***. Which I find really strange because I sent it to warranty locked and not tampered.

Before this I used Rumrunner (firewater was not yet available) and that worked successfully for me.

Now, the results from this tool... I have Android 4.3 with HBOOT 1.55. I had unlocked the phone through HTCdev before but I didn't want to go with the cumbersome process of unlocking the bootloader by the official method (I'm well aware they probably have me on their database as unlocked) so I went with method 2. The first push of firewater (with the wait-for-device) was not successful, it said protocol failure. I ran the command again, success. It took a while to temproot device, didn't time it, but it really took between 5 to 10 minutes, so just wait. I got my device s-off after the

first chugging

.

Soooooo, in conclusion... AWESOME TOOL GUYS!

HTC Rezound using this method HELP

I'm just wondering if this method would work using HTC Rezound. I have been trying for hours maybe i'm doing something wrong? I'm unlocked and rooted running Evervolv 4.4.2 with ADB up to date all API's on 4.4.2. I'm using a Mac and have no access to a PC and am not able to install Linux Ubuntu or Windows successfully (please don't ask why). I'm starting to get beyond frusterated!!!

update adb to latest version and be sure to uninstall htc software from mac before triing

Already did this and theres no htc software on phone or mac. I've checked twice. Im on version 1.0.31 ADB.
[One (M7) General] mirkuma:
:(

Usually "killing ADB server" means that there are two ADB sessions running. Check your processes with Activity Monitor on mac and kill all adb processes and then start adb command again via terminal to see if this helps. You can also try "adb kill-server" command.

I had problem with adb version running in the background with HTC Sync manager, and the one that i run trough terminal. After killing adb and uninstalling HTC Sync Manager and then update adb to 1.0.31 all went fine afterwards.

what cause some phones to be un s-off?

Looking at the different reports, I see that the tool works for some of the folks while others (including me) can't s-off their HTC ONE. In my case, I'm on T-Mobile US, Hboot 1.56, 4.4.2 tried everything, including Stock ROM, ARHD, CM 10.1 / 11, ViperOne, different kernels, different root methods including the latest WeakSauce and still no success. it will be nice to understand what cause some of the devices to be so stubborn.

Hey thread,

HTC One M7 rooted with weaksauce, trying to firewater s-off.

Read through entire thread, still haven't found a clear/appropriate fix to my issue.

Like others, get to part in cmd prompt where firewater has opened second bottle and is chugging...

Then phone powers down, cmd prompt reverts to original directory. I have tried multiple times, as well as triple checking all pre-requisites (as well as verifying root after 'adb reboot' and preceeding any other commands entered). Running windows 7, usb 2.0, all drivers in check.

Any help would be awesome, this is my second root and I'm a little lost.

Cheers.

[One (M7) General] brownbuffalo:
Question:

I Weaksauced my HTC One M7, had a little bit of trouble, but was finally able to S-OFF the phone with firewater.

However, I then tried load into bootloader, and then tried to go into recovery.

At that point, the phone turned off, and then the little phone with the red exclamation point came on my screen.

I held my power button down and eventually was able to turn the phone on but it said "safe mode" in the bottom left, but several apps were simply gone.

I rebooted it again, and this time was able to get back in, but it's been acting weird.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
[One (M7) General] mDaniel:
Tried many roms and couldn't get S-OFF working.... till now.

What I used:

Latest CM11 nightly (from April 1th)

teaMseven_v57 Kernel

Enable su for adb in cyanogen settings and enable the usual stuff in SuperSU

.... worked for me after the 1st bottle :)

DO you just install the basic cm build and then install the kernel or are there any other steps to go through?

Just install rom then kernel zip straight after and reboot. Check supersu settings over adb. which is in system settings.

You're welcome :)

I forgot to mention: I also unlocked the Bootloader via HTC Dev.

Just flashed the regular CM11 zip after full wipe. Then rebootet. Back to recovery and flashed the kernel. Then gave it a try (after MANY attempts with diverse other custom roms) and it worked :) :)
