Remove Tampered Flag - After Relocking & S-On - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need to send my phone back to Verizon. I ran the RUU, relocked bootloader, went back to s-on, and now I have a Tampered flag on bootloader.
Is there a trick for getting rid of this? I am stock across the board. Dunno why it is still showing tampered.

Can't do it without s-off. So s-off again and remove the banner.

I'm in the same boat. I tried using Sunshine to get S-Off again, but I'm left with a message saying unlock failed and SuperSU is missing binaries.

how do i get rid of the tampered and secruity warning flags

I had to turn s back on on my phone, but now i have three flags Tampered, Relocked, and Secruity warning, is there any way to get rid of the tampred and secruity warning and change the relocked back to locked?
Are you S-OFF if you aren't check if firewater it's compatible with your device and you can S OFF I don't suggest you do this if you don't have some experience with things like this..
Can I unlock bootloader and root and stuff using the AIO toolkit, then S-off from there?

Yes you can but no guarantee that you can get s-off
So is it correct to say that if I S-off before doing any modding with the phone, s-off is guranteed? And will HTC check for S-off during warranty check?

No its not guaranteed s-off depends on your phone international unlocked does not s- off and some others

Go back to unlocked, S-On, and not tampered for Dev Edition?

Is there a process to go back to stock software, s-on, unlocked bootloader, and not tampered from a dev edition that is currently rooted, bootloader unlocked, not tampered, and s-off? I know this was possible with the M7.
Thanks,
Y2J

No, you must leave soff, lock boot loader, but going s-on throws a tampered label again.

[Q] Confused about sunshine

What does sunshine do that HTCDev doesn't do? I'm really very confused.
Sunshine S-off's your phone, as well as unlocking the bootloader. HTCdev unlocks your bootloader but leaves security/signing on (S-on) Also, the method Sunshine uses to unlock your bootloader doesn't trip a factory reset.
You don't typically need to turn security/signing off unless you want to change your CID/MID (to convert your handset to a different region) or go back to an older version of firmware/software.

HTC dev only unlocks the boot loader, sunshine or firewater provides full s off which lifts restrictions to partitions that are normally locked down.
Check the below thread for explanations.

Thank link is invalid.
Also, I have got s-off previously without using this?

So in bootloader (or alternately, adb getvar all) it indicates s-off?
If so, and you didn't do firewater or sunshine, then its factory s-off. Its rare, but I've seen it here from time to time.

Unroot and lock bootloader and S-on for Warranty claim

How do you do the above for warranty claim
I need to send the phone in for replacement / maintenance
it is unlocked US version running Verizon ROM on Verizon network
How do I unroot, lock the bootloader, and s-on?
I know they might not care, I still would like to restore everything to prevent any surprises or rejection
please list the steps. Thank you very much

First thing to do is backup everything from your phone to your PC. Then run a RUU ( I guess that would be US unlocked, not Verizon). After RUU is flashed, go to download mode and issue a command "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" (without quotes). That will restore your security flag back to s-on. Then use Sunshine to set bootloader status to LOCKED and s-off (really the easiest way to set it to LOCKED, not RELOCKED). Finally, run "fastboot oem writesecureflag 3" once again, and done. You are 100% stock. It's much faster and simpler than it looks from my description.

Does this remove the red text on the start up screen? One look at that and HTC knows the phone has been altered. On Samsung devices once Knox is tripped you get a message saying so and it's permanent. Just curious.

Red text will be removed after you flash a RUU. HTC is much simpler than Samsung regarding that. Just to be on the safe side, check bootloader status after each step. It's a quick procedure, but you're safe
S-off should be ok just make sure its locked not unlocked.

Did all that (installing the RUU) and received only "re-locked" since it already was S-ON. Sunshine now cannot be used, because the RUU was installed. What did I do wrong, then?

You can use Sunshine. But, if I understood correctly, your phine was never s-off. If that's true, you need to unlock your bootloader again, use Sunshine to get s-off, and then follow my steps

I see, so the only way to have the phone LOCKED is to root it and use Sunshine?

Tecnicaly, you only need to unlock the bootloader and use Sunshine. No need to root, but, in general, the answer is yes
rooting without s-off

how do you even get a verizon htc 10 with oreo installed rooted in the first place if the HTCdev site is unable to unlock your bootloader, Sunshine is unable to unlock your bootloader or S-Off? There is nothing on the internet that has this "Solved" issue that I've read. However after reading your response, are you sure anyone can unlock bootloader and then use sunshine without root?

If you read the first post, you will see that OP is running an US unlocked with Verizon ROM. In that case my steps are correct. If you have Verizon phone, you can't even unlock bootloader, so this is of no use for you

No. Once you pay for Sunshine, it's free for you to use as many times sa you need, as long as you don't change your motherboard
