Rumrunner may work for you with some tinkering. Have you tried it with a stock Rom that matches your hboot version?
[One (M7) General] sToRm1nG:
I didn't mean to offend you. ;)

It is just the way it is. I don't think that firewater will work any longer and that won't change in the future. Beaups and Jcase made that really clear on the firewater web page.

With that said Sunshine would be the only way to S-OFF if your HBOOT is version 1.55 or higher. You can give rumrunner a try like Danny201281 mentioned in the post above.
[One (M7) General] 12reza12:
yes i tried it with my stock rom before i flash the vipers

and i get kernel problem i think !!

i can use my backup and try Rumrunner again ?! :rolleyes:

or can i try Rumrunner with this rom? maybe worked ?

is it so necessary to s-off for vipers rom ?

edit: can i s-off my phone with revone ??is it posible ??
[One (M7) General] matekaneve:
Try rumrunner, if doesn't work, the only option is Sunshine. Revone doesn't work on your device!
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
I don't think you do need s-off the flash Viper Rom. S-off is not a standard requirement for flashing any Rom.

What exactly is it your trying to do. Update Firmware?
[One (M7) General] 12reza12:
i has sensation xe with s-off and super cid bootloader

Now i buy a htc one becuse my sensation broken

i think if i make s-off my phone it will be easy to use this rom options like bootup sound and update things

Now , when i selected the boot sound my phone will be reboot :( i think it is about s-on !?

Or can i select boot animation with s-on phone !?

[One (M7) General] horsetastic:
You do not need S-OFF to change anything like that.

If I were you I'd take some time to learn about S-OFF on the One before even bothering with it. The only real reason for it would be if you wanted to flash alternative firmware, change your CID or MID. But you really don't 'NEED' those things. Hardly any custom ROM user actually does. The number of people on the One forums wanting S-OFF and trying to gain it without actually knowing what it is or what it's for is scary.
[One (M7) General] Danny201281:
So are you saying that when you try to install the bootanimation or sound the device shuts off (as screen goes instantly black then reboots)?

Could be a partition error easily fixed with e2fsck.

Assuming you have an M7_UL (if you have Verizon or Sprint you need different partitions so come back to me) Boot the phone to recovery. Go to Mount options and unmount all partitions. While still in recovery connect usb cable. and in the command window type

adb shell

e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk0p35

e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk0p36

e2fsck -fvy dev/block/mmcblk0p37

exit

Then reboot the phone and try to install the bootanimation/sound again

[One (M7) General] BinaryXeroMedia:
Use Sunshine. I used it and it worked first time without error. Way better than Firewater. Though it isn't free. But it was worth the money IMO. No need to download anything either. Everything is done from within the app on your phone. When yoy start the app it checks to see if compatible and if it is it will send you to payment screen which is PayPal, make payment and phone then runs checks again, ask you to confirm if you want to go ahead and then does everything without you needing to do anything. Phone reboots and S-OFF is complete.
[One (M7) General] hacka247:
i will be getting my phone back from the repair shortly.

im currently s-off could i use this guide again to root my phone again

my phone will be locked and s-off . i used this guide the last time to unlock/s-off and root my phone last time but because i will be s-off already im not sure if i can use this same guide again to unlock and root my phone?

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi there,

Just wondering if you can help. I'm stuck and dumbfounded and still wondering why when I flash and execute firewater nothing happens. I don't see any notes about agreement and saying yes. when I type the last command /data/local/tmp/temproot nothing happens. I'm rooted running custom ROM and flashed with TWRP with Hboot 1.57. Trying to get back to stock. I have Super_SU installed and still not go. I was running Venom before and flashed another ROM. This is my third custom ROM now. Please help. Drivers are all installed and I can see my phone in ADB. I also can run adb reboot no problem. Please give advise. Thanks!

[One (M7) General] beaups:
In your work, do you take a pay cut on a regular basis? When you've met your goal of total income?

We spend every minute of our free time on this project. Not to mention countless costs for phones, software, hosting, etc. If you think the price is too high, fair enough, don't buy it. Or you can spend years of researching and create your own product.

But the opinion that the cost should go down because "a certain goal" is ludicrous.
[One (M7) General] justion:
Don't judge me ! He said if the limits are reached and the costs are covered etc. the price should decrease a little because the project (here:sunshine) reached the no. of users who use they product and entitling their attention to others projects. just a personal guess.
[One (M7) General] beaups:
Who's judging who here? You're the one that apparently thinks they have the right to dictate our business model.

Could we get a mod to edit the op to reflect it was reliant on a host server and it is taken down. It was not even clear to me on firewater site i had a old version of the file and came here for help if the website was more clear about it being not only "discontinued" but then made "inoperable". Most would think it might still work on hboots that were exploitable at the time. I came here from trying to update my buddies phone with a FUU and finding i can't use a hack that did work at the time and still would with host server, but his waiting cost him hehe.

[One (M7) General] mattplo:
Whats stopping them?

Out of pure curiosity, what exactly is stopping anyone from decompiling Sunshine-latest.apk and ripping out the PayPal requirement? Is Sunshine serverside as well? And even if so...whats stopping someone from grabbing the server side response and mimicking it? I mean...we've already seen it done with dozens of other services, whether it be Windows activation(KMSPico) or iOS App Store hacks, etc.

I'm simply asking for academic reasons. With all the back and forth between NO FAIR and THEY WORK HARD battles. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't already been done. All it is, is smali and java. So is there some server side component to SunShine other than the PayPal payment? I ask because theres some hesitation that it may end up in Firewater like scenario. Where the server side is taken down and thus removes the ability to run SunShine to S-ON+Relock. For warranty sake or whatever other reason a user opts to do it. Just being pragmatic.

Personally, I had taken issue with the price myself. I felt like "Oh well this kind of shatters the spirit of XDA". But I've kind of taken a U-Turn regarding my opinion. Unlocking the bootloader flat out voids your HTC Advantage warrenty. Which is actually a very generous warranty. One year screen protection, hardware faults etc. So having to make that trade off of an Unlocked bootloader via HTCDev and bye bye to your warranty OR paying $25 to maintain your HTC Advantage warranty while also getting all the benefits of S-OFF+Unlocked bootloader. I understand the logic.

I'm a pretty hard sell and that $25 price tag almost made me vomit. But then stepping back and thinking about the benefits it awards the user? Honestly, free is awesome, but SunShine at cost makes sense. And not for nothing, but hearing "All the hard work we put into this" and "The number of sacrificed devices" and "We need to recoup our losses" are all very valid, however the SunShine devs are not alone in that dilemma. There are plenty of very hard working and devs on XDA who have put in the same amount of hours and sacrificed the same, if not more devices for the greater good.

In my opinion, SunShine selling point is the fact that you dont void your warranty. To some that may seem negligible. However, I feel that is short sighted thinking. Drop your phone, crack your screen. Did you use SunShine? Then it's just paid for itself. Dat Warranty.

Just my $0.02USD

Edit: I'll be purchasing SunShine later today. Sorry for the rant. This was just a volley back and forth inside my head and thought maybe others haven't given it much thought beyond the allergic reaction to the price tag.
[One (M7) General] beaups:
I can think of a number of reasons that people haven't stolen SunShine as you suggest. These come to the top of mind:

1.) it's hard. If you're good enough to work through SunShine's obfuscation, you're good enough to find your own unlock exploit, and your time would be better spent there. Partly because:

2.) it's illegal (yes, SunShine is a commercial application).
[One (M7) General] mattplo:
I wasn't suggesting anyone stealing it. Like I said, it was simply an academic question. And looking through someones code isn't perse "illegal". It's a slippery slope. And maybe I failed to make my point clearly. I actually support SunShine being a payfor App. Which would be contrary to someone stealing it. Maybe you've been defensive for so long regarding this whole debacle that you perceived my words as combative as opposed to supportive. Which is understandable. :confused:
[One (M7) General] beaups:
I'm not sure what debacle you are referring to, but I'm certainly not being defensive. I rarely need to be, we have lots of supporters of SunShine.

Digging through code is one thing, but decompiling, modifying, and simulating server responses is a bit beyond "digging" in my opinion. Further, your example specifically mentions how Windows and iOS app have been pirated. If your post was just an "academic question", then I hope I'v answered that question for you :P

Anyhow, no biggie. We can move on.
[One (M7) General] mattplo:
I do have one more question. I have a 32GB M8 arriving via UPS in the next hour. So straight stock fresh out of the box, no mods. Is this the best conditions to run SunShine in or is there a more optimal set of conditions to run it on on. I.E. flash a diff kernel via ADB prior? Any tips?

( Also the debacle I was referring to was the " teh omg how darez they charge for this" nonsense.)
[One (M7) General] beaups:
depends on carrier, but stock is best. if < 4.4.4, just run sunshine on the device as-is. if it's 4.4.4 you'll need to unlock bl, flash recovery, and flash root (assuming non-verizon device).
