boot into fastboot and run the command
"fastboot getvar cid"
if says CWS__001, and not 11111111, and you haven't previously unlocked your bootloader before. You may not be able to root.
Did you take an OTA or flash a ROM?
I bought with an OTA

OK, what's the cid?
I can't get onto the computer right now so I'll check the cid later, the and by the way, and does downgrading the OS to ICS make it able to root? Because the ones I've seen on the Web are all for ICS....
Oh and ecexcursion I checked both of my root checker apps, and they both said that it isn't rooted

You can't downgrade without root or an unlocked boot loader.

No you can't flash a rom without an unlocked boot loader.
This is all over the forums and has been asked multiple times, just do a quick search for your answer before askin the question.

You cannot search, you cannot root, in fact this phone cannot even make calls.Return your phone and exchange for an iPhone. Then go to iPhone forums and post many threads asking how to jailbreak. Thank you.

What if I'm on 1.84 after OTA? Where can I get the 1.84 RUU?
There isn't one unless u pay for it. Try an older Verison ruu for your country might still work
Edit
Use this link and try download the latest ruu update there is on that page make sure its your country if you do download the wrong ruu don't worry nothing will happen it will just come as an error on pc saying you got wrong ruu does not Mess your phone

I thought I can't use an older RUU because the 1.84 OTA on T-Mo upgraded something?
Also, I've already looked at that. No 1.84 RUU.
What other choices do u have ? As I said if it does not work ull just get an error won't hurt to try
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
I believe there is a stock nandroid of 1.84 floating around. Flash that and relock the boot loader and then delete any superuser apps, that should cover you.
Edit: Also the fact that was stated above about someone charging for the 1.84 RUU is f*cking ridiculous. This is supposed to be an open source community and it sickens me when people do that crap.

Use the all in one tool, relock the bootloader, then run the RUU.
I was on 1.53 ull need to wait until 1.84 becomes free its true google and HTC would be very annoyed if they found out people selling their software football is the dude that has it ask him

You should check with the person from whom you got the phone. Or may be you can try getting new unlock file from htcdev.com

Check your software, if it's running 2.20 there is no root. if your lucky enough to have 1.85 you can root.

You cannot root as you are on 4.0.4.
Also a bit of searching can help A LOT.

Ok so you went to HTCDEV and unlocked the phone and flashed the unlock code and in your bootloader it says tampered and unlocked?
The reason I ask is the 2.20 method won't even come close to working on 3.18

You can lock and unlock or even relock your bootloader. It's just htc's security. And also flash ruu.
