[Q] Get back S-ON with RUU?!

Hello there,
To day I'm getting S-OFFed I am sooo happy, but now I have questions.
Is the S-OFF for ever? If I flash with the RUU will it lock my device? Can I unwanted lock it with experimenting with roms?
Thanks a lot

It is forever man, don't worry

As mentioned in another thread since S-OFF/Unlocking my Wildfire S A510E with my XTC Clip I have performed two full RUU upgrades including hboot and radios.
S-OFF is still there. Perhaps other's results have varied...
Check out my signature to see what I'm up to and still S-OFF.

[Q] Return to stock

Hello there,
I need some help returning to stock since I've gone too far with the desire and no idea how to go back.
I have an orange branded desire which is rooted and S-off'd and I'd like to unroot it. I'm not too concerned about taking it back to orange branding, just a generic RUU would do (if it's possible, because I'm not interested in goldcards). Right now I'm on Android 4.4 and the HBOOT version says "6.93.1002"
I'm fairly competent with fastboot commands if necessary and just need help with taking this phone back to stock. If you have any more questions let me know and I'll answer.
Thanks in advance

Use the 2.3.3 GB RUU
If you want to be full S-ON unrooted, you may need to flash the alpharev downgrader first before flashing the RUU

I'm not too fussed about S-ON unrooted, quite happy to keep it S-off without going through all of that. Is this the file HTC_Desire_Android_2.3_Upgrade.zip
because I couldn't find the one you named in the stickied thread. This came from the #resources section.

Yes thats the one. Just extract the zip file and the ruu is inside. The one in bortaks guide i think he named it 2.3.3, its definitly there anyway

hi..
I do not know ..
But I did not work for s-off
Maybe the problem starts from here
And
I just need to have an official RUU ROM

there is no official RUU ROM yet.
check Desire 300 Android Development > Device Essential Material *** RUU,s / Recovery / Radio / Root / S-Off / Guides *** (can't post links) for updates, and ask there for the RUU ROM.

Doesn't your hboot still have fastboot?
You could try flashing a working recovery via fastboot.
That way you might have a chance to restore your backups or to try installing the repacked stock odex rom.
Congrats for aquiring a S-OFF'd Desire 300 btw. Let's hope you will eventually actually get to use it. :fingers-crossed:

Looking for firmware zip to flash for CM12

Hello all,
I've been looking for the firmware zip and I couldn't find anything I could use in order to be able to flash CM12. The few files I could find were ones that kept returning "signature verify fail." I'm on the HTC One M8 Developer Edition.
Help is appreciated.

If you don't know what it is, then you're right that its most likely s-on. You can check by booting into bootloader, and it will either say s-on or s-off near the top of the screen.
That being the case (s-on), I think you best bet is to run the 3.28 US Dev Edition RUU, which I've seen posted on the AT&T forum section. I'll try to find it, once I have a chance.

Backup your personal data before RUU, as your phone will be wiped. Also need to relock bootloader to RUU with s-on.

So you're saying I have to flash the stock recovery and lock the bootloader? Because right now I have Clockwork recovery and CM11 on the device. RUU.exe faied to update. Is there a signed ZIP for HBOOT anywhere by any chance? Or could I just change it to S-OFF somehow? Please advise.

You don't need to flash stock recovery to RUU. But you do need to relock the bootloader since you are s-on. If your bootloader is unlocked, this why the RUU is failing.

Took me a while to get back as I go busy.
So should I be using SunShine to unlock this? I found something called FireWater but that shows up as discontinued.

I never said to s-off. I said, since you are s-on, do this: relock the bootloader and run the RUU.
Confirm on the bootloader screen whether it says UNLOCKED or RELOCKED.
You don't need s-off to run an RUU for the Dev Edition, if you have the Dev Edition. And as long as the RUU version is not "older" than what is on the phone ("downgrading" not allowed with s-on). As long as you follow the rules (right CID and right version), s-on is fine to run RUU.
s-off certainly opens up more options, but not strictly necessary in your case. Yes, firewater was discontiued, and sunshine is your only option to s-off.

You didn't, you're right. I was thinking of another thing.
Well, I figured it out finally. Toolkit got things relocked and I had to get the unlock token (developer's edition comes unlocked) to restore CM11 with all the apps and use their updater from there.
Thank you so much for the help! I now have wonderful Lollipop running on my phone. Feels great

S-OFF for my M8 ??

Hello ,
I have an HTC M8 ( HTC__203 CID ) and i want to bring it back to fully stock. Lock my bootloader and install official ROM.
I follow this GUIDE but i have to be s-off in order to finish it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2735235
How can i turn my m8 to S-OFF from S-ON ?
I cant pay SUNSHINE 25$ ..
Is there any other way?
Or any way to lock my bootloader?

Without s-off you can put the flag from UNLOCKED to RELOCKED
only with s-off you can let it show LOCKED. sunshine is the only real (and cheapest) way to s-off the device. No other method available.
The nearest you can get to stock is to run the appropriate RUU with a relocked bootloader. Or restore the matching stock nandroid backup for your device and flash back the stock recovery, then relock the bootloader.
That's about it. Ow yeah and please post questions in the Q&A section next time. This is the GENERAL section.

The only real reason to return the phone to full stock with LOCKED bootloader is for warranty purpose. Is that what you are trying to do?
If so, then sunshine is the only way to s-off.

Yeah something like that. I want to sell it so the person who will take it to have full warranty access.
Thanx both of you. The problem is that in Greece ( where i live ) i dont have the access to my paypal in order to pay Sunshine because of Bank System.
We have Capital Controls so we cant buy anything from outside of our country.

So whats the proper RUU to flash. And how can i flash it in relocked bootloader ?
I tried this -> 0P6BIMG_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_4.16.401.10_Radio_1.25.214500021.06G_20.68.4196t.01_F_release_417809_signed
and this one -> One_M8_4.16.401.10_stock_system_dump.zip
but after i type " fastboot flash zip ruu.zip " in the end it shows me this error -> 12 signature verify fail
What does it mean ?
