You can get S-off with Sunshine method /cost 25 dollars/

For now, there is NO confirmed ROM - Kernel combination that always work with your device / eMMC 1501, h-boot 1.57.. I'm in the same situation..
[One (M7) General] strontium38:
I have hboot 1.57 and tried the method mentioned in this thread with no luck.

Then I tried flashing the unofficial CM12 rom too but while executing the last command "/data/local/tmp/firewater" I get following error:

error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported.

Did you not get the error? If so how did you fix it?
[One (M7) General] Droidcore:
What if it fails in an attempt can be S-off impact bootloop or brick?

Your device is not a root >>> existing characters its $ . If the device is root >>> when you type SU and enter >>> existing characters #
[One (M7) General] strontium38:
I know what you mean. I had to execute su couple of times to get root.
[One (M7) General] ancola66:
In the rom, you had root ( you can run the Root explorer, Titanium backup application ....) But that does not mean you have to be full root. I also encountered cases when CM rom used as OP guide, applications need superuser rights are performing well but when you run Terminal emulator application and type SU >>> expression characters $ >>> Root has not been fully ( I also updated su and su binary ). Then after flashing insertcoin-m7_4.0.4 >>> I type SU >>> expression characters # and in adb tool is also # :D >>> Its full root. I have conducted initially favorable but as you can see above I get an error when typing Yes:(

Sorry for my bad English :D
[One (M7) General] strontium38:
Well I give up with firewater. I used sunshine instead (happily paid $25). And now I am finally s-off.

Any ways big thanks to all of you.
[One (M7) General] djmeex:
Don't waste your time with firewater, it won't work on your device...(eMMC 9001)

Your only option get s-off is Sunshine (cost 25$)...
[One (M7) General] Rubman:
But how about on a device with a 4501 eMMC, I tried virtually every combination possible but nothing seems to work.

Even tried Sunshine but that just keeps giving an internet connection error and try with either Wi-Fi or 3/4G (tried both)
[One (M7) General] djmeex:
Difference between 9001 and 4501 is that on the first one,at the beggining of the process firewater write to you that geting s-off is imposible with it in every situation and do not try again, it wont work!!

And for the 4501 (1501 also) the process going to proceed completely but without success and they write "sorry, try again..." , so there is a chance to gain s-off but with proper combination of ROM and Kernel (and firmware)...
[One (M7) General] viraj071:

[One (M7) General] WiseManWhite:
I have HBoot 1.57 and was unable to get this to work. If anyone else is in the same boat, I recommend using Sunshine. As opposed to taking me 2 unsuccessful evenings to get it working with the directions in this thread (which are very good by the way, they just didn't work for me), I had S-Off within 15 minutes using Sunshine. It's $25 but I'm sure we've all gotten our fair share of free things via XDA. Sometimes we just have to stop being cheap and pay developers what they deserve.
[One (M7) General] Rubman:
And thus I tried about every combination mentioned to have effect on Firewater to no avail.

The only thing I noticed is that my OS on my Bootloader is empty and I can try to flash a new OS directly via ADB?

firewater is not working any more

yesterday when I open firewater website,I found out that firewater is not working any more. is there any way to gain s off??

htc one m7_ul PN071000

htc__j15

hboot 1.57

6.09.401.5

TWRP 2.8.0.2
[One (M7) General] djmeex:
There is an option but it is not free, Sunshine, it costs 25$...
[One (M7) General] mojtabaghanidel:
s off

that means there is no way for me to gain S-OFF. but in this thread at post #477 I read about revone. I tried that,and after "./revone -P"command, my phone reboots and goes into recovery and doesnt boot into android and when I press reboot to system, reboots to recovery again and I have to restore my back-up.

do you have any suggestion for that?
[One (M7) General] Rubman:
Revone only works on lower HBOOT versions, since you have HBOOT 1.57 there are options possible using different roms and kernel combinations but the chance that it will work is small.

Sunshine with a stock kernel and rom should in theory always work.
[One (M7) General] mojtabaghanidel:
s off

I tried revone and got success result, but when I booted booatloader it was still s on!! I have flashed SlimBean 4.3 and unfortunately I cant flash any ROM on my phone.

hboot 1.57

os: 6.09.401.5

TWRP 2.8.0.2

I also downloaded a Nandroid for my device but it was a zip file and when I tried to unzip it, one of them didn't extract.
[One (M7) General] Klejdi90:
Probably a false result I havent seen anyone s-off with revone on hboot 1.57 with os 6.09.401.5

Even firewater cant as far as I have seen, unfortunate it had to be discontinued..

and revone is meant for an older boot.
[One (M7) General] mojtabaghanidel:
yes,I found out that it is a false result.

any way.

friends, would you please help me a bit? I have a problem.

I have rooted my m7 and some days ago,decided to unroot it,during the process I had to flash an unsecured ROM to gain s off ( in that time,firewater was still online).I wiped my phone( without backing-up) and after that I couldn't flash any ROM but SlimBean.I tried to flash ARHD82,Viper,Stock ROMs, but I faced errors.

finally I downloaded a zipped nandroid back up matching my frame-ware 6.09.401.5 and downloaded it but it doesn't extract.

my recovery is TWRP and it doesnt id the zipped file.
[One (M7) General] Newbie_ID:
nice
[One (M7) General] kRYySTy:
so at the moment the single option to s-off hboot 1.57 is sunshine?
[One (M7) General] Klejdi90:
It would appear so
[One (M7) General] genseng:
Yes. And if you look through the thread it has been the case for most M7 phones on hboot 1.57 anyway because the firewater exploits have all been patched in software and more recent hardware.

[One (M7) General] cyrusct82:
Read this http://firewater-soff.com/
[One (M7) General] Rubman:
Firewater needs an internet connection to check something, probably on the site.

Since everything has been suspended the files firewater looks for are no longer present resulting in a non working firewater patch.

I suggest using Sunshine Yes it costs $25,00 but the devs have put a lot of work in the exploit and people tend to take things for granted.

[One (M7) General] glgehman:
Can someone update the OP then?

If Firewater exploit has been discontinued and no longer works for any bootloader/EMMC combination, then can someone please update the Original Post to indicate that it is no longer effective? It shouldn't have to be necessary to read 21 pages of a thread to learn that it has been obsoleted.

Doing so would save many users who only read the first three posts in a thread before undertaking the procedure from wasting their time and potentially damaging their device.

Maybe starting a new thread like: [HBOOT 1.57][S-OFF][Only Sunshine] with a link to sunshine.

Phone reboots on HTC logo over and over again. I can access bootloader menu - this what I see. And that's it, no rom, no recovery. Is it totally dead?

There is no recovery available right now if tried - phone says entering recovery - and goes to reboot loop.

All guides or posts state that you need to upload RUU - must be S-off. To S-off you need active bootloader or ROM/Recovery.

Any other solutions or maybe some had same issue?

Which is very clever of the developers of sunshine off course I can't blame them.

[One (M7) General] alray:
Firewater is discontinued. This exploit used some online resources that are not available anymore.

Using firewater is like calling a phone number that isn't in service anymore, you can still dial the number (use the Firewater app), but no one will answer you at the other end to talk to you (to give you s-off) ;)

If your phone is on a recent hboot version, your only option is Sunshine S-OFF.

Ive tried the same method n change date to previous year

[One (M7) General] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
firewater doesn't work anymore for a Long time man...Servers are taken down.

to get lollipop working fine Flash a lollipop for your CID or just try to Flash the Rom, get the right recovery which supports 5.1 and try it...if it doesnt work just get the right Firmware for your phone and Flash it...be sure to save all data from phone to pc since it will wipe the device as Long as you are still s-on, since you can only Flash signed Firmware.

Updating the Update-Binary

If you receive a status 7 error when flashing a zip in recovery, pull the update binary from the latest CM nightly.
