DOES NOT WORK WITH INTERNATIONAL DEVICES THAT ARE ON HBOOT 1.54! DONT EVEN BOTHER TRYING. I WILL NOT SUPPORT YOU IF YOU'RE NOT SMART ENOUGH TO FOLLOW THIS GUIDE OR ARE USING AN INTERNATIONAL VERSION OF THE DEVICE
Hello, here is a very simple guide to be able to use revone or moonshine to s-off on the US variants of the HTC One
Make sure you have dev unlocked and you flashed a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP both work fine)
make sure you have also grabbed an appropriate RUU from androidfiles.org
AT&T - http://ruu.androidfiles.org/getdown....13_10.33.1150.01_release_318450_signed_2.exe
T-Mobile - Need RUU link - Working on getting it
Sprint - http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=22979706399752930 <-- Extract zip and run RUU.exe
After that, you need to make sure adb works (if you can't figure out how to do any of this, I will not help you. If you can't find out basic things about Android, then you shouldn't have s-off)
So, as we all know, HTC has made it so with newer bootloaders, you cannot downgrade to older firmwares. Well, this is true except when the software version changes but the hboot version doesn't. So all we need to do is this:
Boot into recovery
echo 1.00.000.0 | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 bs=1 skip=160
adb reboot bootloader
start the RUU EXE, wait for progress bar to finish for extraction then it opens a new window with a checkbox, next, and cancel
after that, open windows explorer and goto %temp%
back out 1 directory then search for rom.zip
move that to desktop
then close the RUU
fastboot oem lock
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip PATH\TO\DESKTOP\rom.zip
it'll flash hboot then tell you to flush
just re-run the flash zip command (just press up and enter then it should flash again)
Will this return the phone stock
Will this return the phone to stock and therefore allow moonshine to run correctly? Currently I am running cm10 and therefore cannot get moonshine or revone to work.

That's some scary **** right there. But awesome find if it works.
Is 0p19 the hboot partition or does it just contain the hboot version? Or is it some other version number we are changing with this?
Why wouldn't this work with the international version? Can't you just flash the WWE RUU instead?

hboot is p12. p19 is a "misc" partition where mainver is stored (I think).
As the OP states, this doesn't work if your hboot is 1.54, for reasons that don't need to be repeated again here.
Can you just use the At&t RUU if you're on T-Mobile, then updat radio after soff? Or is that crazy?

OP can clarify, but what I believe he means is the international carriers that have rolled out 4.2.2. If you took that OTA, you're stuck. No US carriers have rolled out 4.2.2, so no stock US devices have hboot 1.54, but there have been OTAs that blocked s-off.
But this method does not work on US devices that are rooted and upgraded to 1.54 either, because you cannot downgrade hboot without s-off.

How this works is that due to the fact that radio / sbl doesn't protect the misc partition which contains version number for the rom / firmware but doesn't contain the hboot number. If it did, this would allow a full downgrade from anything.

Nope. Just makes s-off easier when they don't bump up hboot version number.
ROM.ZIP access
Is there any other way to get the ROM.zip for the AT&T variant? I cannot get it using the process listed.
Sorry for the noob question.
I have a Wind-Mobility HTC One (that shares the same MID as T-Mobile but has a different CID), will this RUU method work? It does have a 1.44 hboot version and not a 1.54 hboot.
Does this not include verizon?

See tweet here: https://twitter.com/#!/htcdev/status/169946512019816448 and official booloader unlock page here: http://htcdev.com/bootloader
The Eris can now have its bootloader officially unlocked. Mine already is, so I haven't tried this myself.
Wow... Talk about too little too late. ROFL
Sent from my Sabotaged Droid Incredible 2.
Interesting process to say the least. According to this:
http://htcdev.com/bootloader/preview_unlock_process
you register an "account" with them (email and password), send them your device ID, and they "give you instructions" and a passcode of some sort which is unique to your handset.
(A PC with working drivers and fastboot is required).
Also, from the link which doogald provided, note the asterisk after Droid Eris indicating that a "a bootloader upgrade is required".
Also note this interesting tidbit from the HTCdev FAQ (See the very last item):
[SIZE=+1]Why is my security still on (S-On) after I have unlocked my bootloader?[/SIZE]
Your device is shipped with Security on (S-ON) to protect your system software configuration (such as the bootloader, radio, boot, recovery, system and others). After you have unlocked the bootloader, however, you will have lifted the restrictions on boot, recovery and system. This means you can customize boot, recovery and system images on your phone as you desire. You can easily see that you have successfully unlocked the bootloader by looking at the top of the screen when entering the bootloader screen. Security is left on to protect things like the radio, and SIM lock.

Well, I am going to register, and we'll see what we get...
It delivers an RUU with ROM version 2.41.605 - that's useful, as I believe that's one nobody has had before.
[edit] Scratch that - the RUU is 6.1 MB, so it must be just the bootloader and not the actual software
Also, the instructions for installing say that you must install HTC Sync first, and give an HTC web site that is supposed to have it - but they do not list the Eris in the models on the site.

Perchance did you start the RUU and pull the "rom.zip" file out (of the temp folder)? We can probably find the bootloader version number easily from there.
What is the use? I don't see it....
That's what I was thinking. The super one click method for the Eris is the best rooting and s off method I have seen for any phone.

No, let's take a look, though. Back in a bit.
Bootloader file name is hboot_7501a_1.51.0000_111229.nb0
So, I'm thinking that makes the bootloader version 1.51.0000?
I guess the next thing is to extract that and fastboot flash it, huh?

From the FAQ on the HTC site, it would appear that it is going to be a S-ON bootloader, so reversing that flash back to 1.49.20000 may be impossible.
I've got a spare eris with a wonky digitizer that I don't care what happens to it at this time.
But - as others mentioned - it does seem a bit academic at this point.
Can you post the rom.zip file? I'm betting it's small enough to be a post attachment.

Right. I'm not quite sure why they bothered - the current bootloader is rootable, doesn't block kernel flashes - what's the point of a new BL with S-ON? I was curious, though, to see what they were going to deliver. I'm going to keep stock on the phone to see if they ever deliver an OTA update, though.

Right. When you run the RUU it goes through all of the steps and then fails at the end, with an error message that says that the current ROM is not supported (my phone had the latest March 2011 OTA installed), but that an update would be available soon that will be supported. It says that there will be a message on the phone, so I assume it's a new OTA.

Ok I did some looking and the Eris did get s off and mine is s off. There is a specific h boot that has to be flashed but you have to have a specific version starting to do it. Plus flashing a bootloader is very risky and is the easiest way to brick your phone.

You shocked me. I was thinking if htc really changes itself to be more user and dev-friendly. All of those are obsolete kernel sources( except the GE ones), and htc, it seems, will never release RUUs of regions other than Developer Edition.

Wheather it's true or not. I installed the update for AT&T and am now on h-boot 1.55. I'm a noob at android and didn't know how hard it it is to get s-off considering how easy I got it the first time. So i Locked my bootloader and got S-On to install the update. Now i'm stuck on custom rom and can't get s-off. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
So I thought it would be better to bring the chatter here rather than further cluttering the S-OFF threads.

I am probably the most guilty of filling the S-OFF dev threads with my ideas and trials and thought last night that the poor people that just want to S-OFF using especially revone have to trawl through far too many pages of useless and unnecessary information to find the answers they're looking for. I think it might be a good idea for the mods to have a really good clear out of the threads. Specifically revone to reduce the amount of junk..... Mostly my junk lol.

No no you misunderstand I think. We can use a signed firmware with 1.54 hboot inside, rename to PN07IMG.zip and it should work. The hboot needs to start writing then we stop it half way causing it to be corrupt. Then we can use the tool swapping the hboot and misc images inside to ours and downgrade hboot.

Hi The War Horse & Theshawty,
I have been following your adventures regarding S-Off closely. I have tried everything to get S-Off on 1.54 hboot myself (War Horse our minds work the same way – tried everything you did myself haha). I have also been trying to downgrade the hboot. In regards to your plan to brick the hboot please be careful. I successfully bricked my hboot by entering RUU mode and flashing a firmware.zip with 1.54 hboot (cid and mid matched my phone). I timed it perfectly by holding the power button 1.5 seconds before I ran the “fastboot flash zip firmware.zip” command. The phone reset at exactly the point hboot was writing. The trick was to flash a firmware.zip that includes 1.54 hboot (must be for your phone cid and mid). Anyway, the downside of this is that because the phone was reset while the hboot was writing the phone obviously won’t boot and is stuck in QHSUSB_DLOAD MODE. Anyway if you know how to use QPST maybe you can flash 1.44 hboot that way. I don’t have QPST so my phone is now bricked. No matter, I tried everything else so it was worth a shot.
---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 AM ----------
Guys I think you can upgrade using the new DE RUU. You will have to use Windows for this. It will not work with fastboot. There is a way to bypass the cid and mid checks for an RUU. Also since the new RUU has a newer hboot the hboot check won’t fail. To do this you need:
-ARUWizard.exe (get this and the accompanying version of adb and fastboot plus all required config files/dlls etc. from your Windows temp directory when you run the ruu.exe – copy them all to the same directory)
-ROM.ZIP from the 4.3 DE RUU
In the ARUWizard.exe directory update android-info.txt to include your cidnum and modelid num. Then run ARUWizard.exe. The reason this will work is when ARUWizard.exe runs the cid and model id check are performed using android-info.txt and not by reading the phone. These steps should pass now.
If you upgrade this way OTA’s won’t work because your cid and mid won’t match the OTA.

im sure you'll be able to find something after googling around.
I have run threads like this in the past for several other devices.
Here I will be covering all sorts of guides and how to's for the HTC One M9! These guides will all be in Video form. Expect S-Off, Root, Recovery, and Rom videos. Check back often for updates to this thread!
How To Root:
How To S-OFF
Unboxing and First Impressions:
Also be sure to subscribe to my youtube channel to be the first to see these videos when they come out! http://youtube.com/droidmodd3rx
Exactly what I was looking for. Will you be making a video on how to unlock the boot loader as well for the unlocked version???
Mine is already unlocked so no, but I'll link to one

Humm yeah
How do I restore stock system so that I can accept an OTA?
Copy the system.emmc.win from your TWRP backup folder to the folder containing fastboot on your PC (or any folder, if fastboot is in your PATH). Make sure your Android SDK platform-tools are up to date!!
Reboot the device into Download mode (adb reboot download) and connect to PC.
Fastboot flash the backup file* (fastboot flash system system.emmc.win).
Fastboot flash stock recovery (fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img)
Reboot to system, install OTA.

The S-OFF is permament right? If i'm making any updates to the ROM it won't change it to S-ON?
Yes, S-OFF is permament!
I was wondering if Sunshine supports the Sprint HTC 10, and if so, is there a way to debrand the phone/ convert to unlocked edition? I saw a thread saying to get the unlocked version to work with Verizon, all you had to do was flash the radio. Could the opposite be true?

Yes and Yes, you need to look in the HTC 10 Forum.
Any links please? I have been searching the HTC 10 forums, and found references of Sunshine working with Sprint to achieve S-off, but I have not found anything that says someone has converted their sprint phone to an unlocked version with a sprint radio for HTC OTA updates, or the opposite, that someone has converted an unlocked phone to work on the sprint network.
I searched these threads and the HTC 10 forums as requested.

Not much on this topic shows up. Maybe I missed something?
Well, no...
Well, i don't think so... this is my sad history... i get this phone cheap but i dont live in USA...
Well, thinking like "All HTC 10 has the same Hardware, i just need change ROM or RUU for my phone are Unlocked Version" well big mistake!
Bootloader Unlocked.
TWRP Recovery Installed.
Flash Rom with SuperUser.(Viper2.1.0)
Sunshine for S-OFF
Change CID and MID for Unlocked Version.
Flash RUU Unlocked US Version.
Well, all work very well but just a little thing happen, the Baseband and IMEI disappear, on OS but not on Download Mode, in a simple words, not recognize any sim.
I back to RUU Sprint and all works perfect but now, my phone has Simlock... damn it...
i really hate when the carrier touch our devices...

You have a Sprint phone right? After you flash RUU for US Unlocked, you need to flash the Sprint radio to get service.

Go ahead and flash the unlocked RUU again, I am extracting the Sprint radio from the Sprint RUU, which may take some time, probably less than 5 minutes.

Flash the radio before booting.
You are using the ruu on the Windows right or through download mode?

for Flash radio is in Bootloader, not Download Mode.
and you are a good person my friend, but not work, still saying "Install a Sim" and my IMEI and Baseband are in Unknown.
And i hope to flash radio wih original RUU Sprint for Unlock my SIMLOCK, but it has some bug, and the HAND FREE ACTIVATION trying to activate, the phone always restart after that...
Again... I am with hands tied...

I would just flash the Sprint RUU, then unlock SIM....u can easily remove all the Sprint apps, and it will be just as good as unlocked
to bypass HFA...while in twrp, use file manager & delete \system\priv-app\HtcOMADM_SPCS
@Rodoful Here...I built a script to remove all the Sprint apps including the amazon apps. It also copies the stock boot up/down animation from the unlocked version...I verified the script bypass' the HFA, it will make your Sprint 10 look as close as possible to the unlocked version.

Man, I'm really glad I got bored and decided to poke around XDA. I checked in when I got the phone but didn't find anything specific to Sprint and didn't see any BadBoyz stuff. Glad I found you guys again.
Sorry I am off-topic.

Stupid question but does unlocking the SIM stay permanent or do you have to re-do the process each ROM flash?
