[Q] How to S-Off on HTC One M7, HBOOT-1.61 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a HTC ONE M7 purchased from T-Mobile. I rooted it and have CyanogenMod installed in it. Recently, I switched to different carrier. Now, my phone rejects foreign sim card and asks for Network SIM card lock. The unlock code provided by T-Mobile doesn't work due to rooting the phone.
I want to go back to T-Mobile Android stock ROM and try the unlock code. What's the process for it? Here are some details from bootloader screen:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***

I don't understand why you are posting on this thread. It has nothing to do with what you need. There's tons of info on how to restore your phone in the forum for your phone. It is specific to the carrier or region that you got the phone from as well. Basic guideline is that if you just want to return to stock unrooted then you will have to relock the bootloader and flash a RUU (Rom Update Utility) that corresponds to the specific variant of the M7 you have and must be the same update or newer. If you aren't sure, then just pick the newest one. If you want to use custom roms, then you will have to download one that will work for your variant, use adb to push the file from your PC to the phone, then use TWRP to install. Since you are S-On, you will need to use fastboot to flash the boot.img from the rom zip you downloaded.

Sorry
I was posting on here because i thought this was where i get help sorry if it is wrong place but i am not wanting to know how to simply reset the phone i know how to do that i am trying to figure out why it says no os installed and when i do any type of restore it goes too th twrp menu comes up and my friend said was working fine b4 son hard reset it so if you can tell right place to get help i will go there and not bother anyone here again and also it says i am S-off so that isn't problem

[Q] HTC One stuck in boot animation

Hi all:
I think I´ve definitely broken my brand new HTC One. The problem is that the phone is stuck in the initial animation (white screen with the HTC One logo. This screen) and I cannot do anything. I tell you the story.
I rooted the phone with this tutorial http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/
At first, everything seems to go fine, but the SuperUser app started to fail and ask for updates. I installed RomManager and I changed to CWM Recovery instead of the TWRP recovery installed while rooting. I unistalled Super SU and installed the Google Play version and everything was fine again.
Today I tried this mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251788 to remove the 3 dot menu and I flashed the file bkbtnmenu.zip with CWM. I flashed the file, I did a wipe cache and a wipe dalvik and when I tried to reboot, the HTC got stuck in the animation screen.
I cannot switch it off, neither entering in recovery or anything else. When I try to restart or enter in recovery it simply restarts to the same screen and cannot do anything but waiting for the device to empty the battery.
I´ve made something terribly wrong. Hope some of you guys can help me. Every little help will be appreciated. Absolutely desperated
For future reference I'd say not to use anything from zedomax because someone always has issues with his tutorials. Anyway, you said you're not able to boot into hboot?

Some progress
First of all, thanks for the advice.
After reading your reply I´ve tried again and now I´m able to start the phone in recovery mode. Sorry but cannot post images. I already can go into the HBoot screen.
But don´t know how to continue.
If you're able to boot into recovery try to factory reset, you'll lose all your apps and settings but that should work

No progress
I´ve done the factory reset, but after rebooting I´m still stuck in the boot animation screen.
Absolutely no idea of what I can do.
Try downloading an ruu if you just want full stock, otherwise try pushing a rom to the sd card and flashing it that should get you back up and running

I´m a bit newbie in this kind of things. Before the crash, I had Android 4.2.2 and even though I´m Spanish, I live in Singapore and I´ve bought my HTC here.
I´ve noticed that there are a lot of RUU and no idea of which to choose. I don´t have any problem in pushing a new rom, but how can I push it to the SD card? Please can you send me a link or two? I´ve found a lot of info in the forum but I´m a bit overwhelmed because most of the posts are for people with more experience than me and don´t know which one I have to choose.

Go to this thread, there you will find your resolution.
Sorry for bothering you again but it doesn´t work.
I followed the steps of the video. My HBoot screen now shows that it´s RELOCKED instead of UNLOCKED
I started the RUU file and it showed me that currently I have a 2.x.x.x. ROM and I´ll change to a 1.x.x.x. ROM. I clicked next and the software got stuck sending. After a few minutes, I received this message
ERROR[130]: MODEL ID ERROR
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
Maybe It´s something related to the drivers?

[Q] HELP! Restoring my HTC ONE

Hello all!
First of all, I think this website is awesome, lots of usefull stuff and information, you guys doing a great job. By guides on this site I was able to unlock my phone, root it and install all kinds of different ROMS. With those guides it was very easy! However now I seem to stupid to restore my HTC ONE (TMO-101) back to stock. What I exactly want? Just completly restore it to default. After hours of doing and reading stuff, I just gave up. I think I made it even worse as before. I used and restored an backup (old one) from original state. But! I cannot update with the OTA pushed. Seems I first have to put back the original recovery and unroot the device. I thought that an RUU would be the solution, however I cannot find any for my version or in other words one that actually works for me! Then I thought ok lets try the backups made by someone else and restore those, recovery tool is not working anymore... If you could provide me with the correct steps and tools to perform this, I would be very thankfull! Because I'm totally lost....
My HTC ONE current state:
***TAMPERED***
***RELOCKED***
***SECURITY WARNING***
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT 1.44
Android version 4.1.2
* Used Clockmod recovery before but it does not seem to work anymore, so basically no recovery atm.
Thanks in advance for looking in to my issue!

I was in the same boat as you last night, I thought I bricked my phone, but thanks to this post, I was able to do it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496074
First you have to relock your bootloader, it's quite easy. Go to your fastboot folder on your computer (the same one you used to unlock your phone) open command prompt there (Shift + right click) then type fastboot oem lock then run that RUU that I posted and it will restore you to 100% stock, like you just took it out of the box.
Thanks!!
Gonna try this right away:good:
It's not working. Model-ID error (130). Had this one before, it's the US version. But, I got the TMO101 (DE). This is the model also sold in the Netherlands.......
Any RUU available for this as well? Couldn't find it or
Other options?
Thanks!

[Q] m7 tampered and relocked

hello everyone!
new guy here... i have searched, but I don't know exactly where to start with this phone.
basically, my friend bought this phone, and wanted to install some fancy schmancy app, that i guess required it to be rooted? he did something to the phone, don't know what, he doesnt know either.. he just followed directions he found online. it worked, for about 6 months, until all of a sudden it kept rebooting constantly. he needed a phone right away so he bought a moto X, and gave me this phone bc its useless to him.
now I have it, and am trying to recover some info for him off it (some notes and email addresses), and then I would like to make it into a international version, so I can use it on my travels to Europe this summer.
its currently on the fastboot screen, and it says:
***tampered****
***relocked****

i have a tmobile HTC One myself, but have never rooted or messed with one, i would start from 0. i searched, but I got a bit confused, so I just wanted to see if I can save this phone. thank you all!
So I'm thinking that your friend went through the process of rooting his phone by the usual way...
Unlock bootloader > install custom recovery > flash a super user tool.
Seems like he wanted to return the phone to "stock" but instead of doing the process in reverse just simply relocked the bootloader. Which is probably why it's boot looping now, doubt it just started happening all of a sudden.
If you want to put an international Rom on the phone I suggest just unlocking the boot loader again. Though be warned unlocking the boot loader wipes the phones data so your not going to be able to recover your friends data.
There are plenty of guides in the HTC One forums on how to unlock the boot loader.
In order to do it your going to need the unlock code for the phone, which your friend must have received from htcdev.com you'll have to get it from him.

Sorry it took so long, but I finally managed to make something happen.
I followed your advice, and unlocked bootloader. After I did that, the phone tried to restart and after the HTC logo, the screen just goes black, and stays like that. I can see the screen is on though. I can restart it, by using power + vol down button, which makes the back and home buttons flash when I press those buttons.
is that what should happen?
wait nevermind.... i wasnt pressing the right button, so I wasn't going into the boot loader. slowly figuring it out... haha
opinion
in this cases be carefull avoid brick your HTC ONE unloke bootloader again an follor straight instructions and everithing should go otherwise
alright so I have a question for you guys...
the phone was an AT&T Phone... if i flash a Tmobile rom on it, and unlock the SIM, could I take advantage of 4G here in the US? I want to use it in Europe this summer, but now my wife wants to use it as her daily...
basically where im at now, as of a few days ago, i unlocked bootloader, installer TWRP, now trying to figure out what to do next... slowly learning the ways of rooting here.. you guys are of great help!

If you're on a stock rom, you could go to att website, then click on your phone and choose sim unlock. I believe it is an 8 digit code. For the 4g part, I don't know for sure but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

Hi there, I attempted to unroot and go back to stock after encountering tiny bugs while using my HTC One M7 but I ran into some problems..
this is exactly what my htc one says on the bootloader:
"Tampered
Relocked
M7_UL PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.55.0000"
How do I go back to stock from where I am?
I would really appreciate any help, the camera started showing that common purple haziness a lot of people have seen and I really want to send my phone in for repair... and the warranty expires on June 23rd 2014.

Does your phone work / bootup?
if so just copy this rom to the phone and reboot to recovery and choose install
find the file and flash it ... choose to do a full wipe in Aroma if you want a fresh start on the new sense 6

[Q] [HELP] First Timer. Stuck in Boot Loop. PLEASE HELP!

Hello, so basically today after owning my HTC Amaze for an year i decided to root it and install a ROM and it got stuck. I AM REALLY SCARED. MY PARENTS WILL KILL ME IF THEY FIND OUT PLEASE HEELPPP. The HTC logo appears for 5 secs then black screen for another 5
I used this thread to root my htc amaze :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426377
i followed all the steps EXACTLY as said till the point where it says "From here you can flash your custom rom or root files." in step #4 and all was going well. At that point i wanted a custom rom
after this i tried using the energy rom : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362759
i downloaded the file given here as Amaze.Stock.Kernel.Flasher.zip , unzipped this file and ran the file flash.bat with my phone connected through USB . After this my phone rebooted and got stuck in a boot loop, so i thought that i should continue and was hoping that maybe it gets fixed. The version given in his thread is of ICS, since i had GB i searched the thread and got a link to a file named "energy.3.10.2012.stock.kernel.amaze.zip" the GB version of this rom. So i downloaded it, went into recovery and installed this from my external SD card. The boot loop problem still persisted. So then i tried the FACTORY RESET in the HBOOT options and still there was no luck
I tried searching the threads and went through some terms like flashing RUU and relocking my bootloader. I DO NOT know what any of these are... so i don't want to create anymore problems for myself
I own the unbranded asian version, i think.
This is what it says in my HBOOT

[Q] No OS, no recovery and (S-On)

I have the International HTC One Max, first of all I tried to root it and I did it right after a while I tried to set a finger print and it doesn't work I googled it then I realize that "S" should be (S-off) so I can re-lock the bootloader, I tried to do it with "Revone" Failed, then I tried Rumrunner and at last stage It told me that I have to change my kernel I did and the phone was ok just on restart and I stacked with red triangle with "!" . I wiped the phone clean didn't work, Right now i can't go forward and i can't go backwards.
the Boot-loader is Unlocked, S is on (S-On), i have no Os and no Recovery. its the perfect trap. Please what do i do.
