Did you have your antivirus disabled when attempting this? If you didnt, it will fail...I know from experience.

I don't think that exploit works on hboot 2.49. But I believe you maybe able to use sunshine. Just Google it.

You are correct, I was going to mention Firewater (I believe it's called), but then noticed that he can't even get the phone to boot properly...or at least that's how I understood it.

Why the **** will this image you linked NOT flash my phone?! It loads, checks then just dumps me at the hboot screen! Ive got hboot 1.5(obviously) and the latest software 2.17.651.5. Even the .2 RUU exe will NOT work, continuously gives me hboot version error. I believe its error 140. I NEED to unlock this thing...or get pissed and hit it with a hammer.

HTC unlock method will not work. I flash the token and it just sits there...Im trying to revert to .2 so I can actually unlock, like I have with two other 3d's but the friggin RUU exe tells me bootloader version error which is 140, I believe. I should know, I saw it 356 times last night.

Tried that a million times last night. And just now, just because.
I took a video of the process because I couldnt read what the RUU was saying. After updating signature, very quickly it says Checking Header...then it says checking MID/CID and then I get the screen that is attached! [Expletive deleted!]

It is locked. Its new. That screen comes from the .2 RUU exe.
I havent tried anything with adb. I havent used adb since the Evo4g. Have a link?
I have tried running the RUU with windows, I have tried PG86IMG.zip's, Ive tried RUU's while already being in fastboot. When I try using PG86IMG's through hboot, it loads the file, checks the file then dumps me back at the Hboot screen.

Adb is what most folks use to do all there stuff. You have to have adb installed to do the HTC devs route from what I have read. So the phone is locked and your tryin to root it. But are gettin errors ?
So your phone now is hboot 1.5 and is currently up to date and your tryin to root it HTC dev route but get errors?

Yeah exactly. But posted on xda, you cant htc dev it with any software other than 2.08.651.2, which for some bizarre ass reason, I cant downgrade to!
I tweeted the other day "when the **** did adb move?!". so thats how long ago I used it. Im familiar with it, I used to delete all my bloat with adb, which was a painstaking process.

Thanks dude. Hopefully we can unlocked and junk. Did I mention I also love the reaper? Multiple reaper tattoos inspired by children of bodom album art. But I digress.
It would be nice if HTC updated their bootloader unlock method but frankly, I dont see that happening. I called them today and they dont support anything.

How did you do it???? Please help me/us out..I have the exact same problems, tried using the 2.08 RUU's and get an error 140. And when I try the HTC unlock method at step 12 when I flash the unlock_code.bin nothing happens, no disclaimer shows up. I am on 2.17.651.5 latest OTA and HBOOT 1.5.
Sorry if the answers im looking for are somewhere else but i cant find them. Im not new to the rooting game but it has been awhile, last phone rooted was the original evo and ive fallen behind on the new software and such. anyways ive rooted successfully and am running hboot 1.19 with s-on. for some reason i get the same error message when flasing a rom saying that sdcard cannot be found. do i need to be running s-off with 1.19 to flash roms? Thanks!

Hopefully that all that is needed... but S-OFF is the way to go if you can do it. It will save you so many headaches in the future. HTC is making it harder on s-on people to do anything to their phone, this started with the 3.15 JB update and will probably get worse. S-OFF my friend S-OFF

Hold the phone. Flashing TOO new of a recovery (like TWRP 2.4.1) can also cause problems. There's something that the dev has to place in the ROM in order to be compatible with 2.4.1. May I suggest you try 2.3.1? It seems to be the "sweet spot" and works with most ROMs out there today.

alright so heres the deal. im on my second one max after selling my first one foolishly! anyway this one has hboot 2.49 and it has been a NIGHTMARE to s-off. NOTHING has worked. drivers installed, uninstalled, anti virus uninstalled, installed, everything i can think of. anyway i did some searching around and found this..http://androidcure.com/unbrick-htc-one-max-stock-firmware/ i do assume this is a european rom but the guts of the phone are the same. im wondering if this will lower the hboot to previous version as well.
thoughts? am i gonna brick my phone?
prompt replies appreciated
Always remember on a HTC one m7 if you tried flashing a hboot to down grade without being soff I think you ran the risk of bricking. Any more info on phone is it rooted boot loader unlocked. Are you using firewater. if you enter adb devices does the device show. Is it on a stock Rom. Have you tried temp root and firewater route. Etc

I have tried several rooms but all of them fail to install.
Can someone please tell me the steps I need to take to go back to either stock or have another ROM working? (RUU fails as well, however it does detect the phone)

First, this should probably be in the Q&A section
Second, gonna need WAY more info about your phone. I assume you're rooted? S-off or S-on? What hboot version are you on? What version of TWRP are you currently using? What ROM are you on now? What RUU are you trying to use? Gonna have to give a little bit for us to work with.
Edit: Your signature also says you have the Evo Shift? Are you on the write forum?

Is your goal to flash another ROM or to go back to stock?
If you're going to be trying to flash another ROM I'd highly recommend running rumrunner and getting s-off. Otherwise there are a lot of hoops you'll need to jump through in order to flash ROMs (for starters, you'll need to flash the kernel separately).

Whichever one is faster, I just want the phone up and running again.
So it's not running at all now? I'm assuming you can boot into bootloader and recovery but nothing else, right? You can run an RUU while in fastboot if I recall, which will give you at least a usable phone. That's also probably the fastest thing to do.
After that I'd highly recommend using rumrunner to get s-off. Otherwise flashing new ROMs will be a bear.

D'oh! I bet your bootloader is still unlocked. It needs to be relocked before running the RUU.
Fastboot command 'fastboot oem lock' ought to do the trick.

someone please help
im not sure what part did the damage. but i was trying to flash a new rom. it screwed up. didnt work. kept trying a few things. but long story short i accidently formated my external containing my back up, and nothing else worked on my phone.
end result, phones not recognized by Adb but can be seen on fastboot it has no OS and somehow its now S-ON and im stuck with out a phone.
i just redownloaded all my sprint drivers, sdk including, also have a fresh version of htc sync manager.
im lost. dont know what to do. this is my last resort till smash it and claim insurance

Well...since you are Sprint you probably unlocked via HTC dev. You can flash your unlock token again which will allow you to flash a custom recovery. You can then flash the current rooted Rom and use sunshine to s off again. The hard option is flashing an older Rom to use firewater as doing so will make your phone reboot about every thirty seconds because of the firmware mismatch. I can help you get it done that way if you want...up to you. Six of one half dozen of the other. You can almost always fix a phone that still boots to hboot and is unlockable. You won't have adb in the current mode either btw....

You are on the current firmware... So you would need a current ruu to do that. Does your phone show unlocked now?

hi
if you're bootloader showing unlocked try to install twrp recovery image
and then try to download stock nandroid rom for you're Sprint mobile then place it in you're mobile using adb push command then restore the the rom that you have placed at the end flash the image boot from the bootloader and you're done.

yeah im fairly sure it says unlocked and tampered at the top of hboot, and it also says s-on some how. i tried fastboot command oem unluck and that didnt change it, i feel like this s-on nonsense is my main problem.

Don't wipe system especially. Reboot to boot loader. Choose reboot boot loader. Go back into recovery and flash. Don't wipe anything
