[TIP] Remove "Tampered" Warning in Bootloader - HTC One S

Not sure if this is really a tip or not, but this worked for me. I hate seeing that "Tampered" warning in my Bootloader.
Now that I am S-OFF, when I flash a new radio via fastboot, then reboot my bootloader, the "Tampered" warning goes away. Can anyone else confirm this? Thanks.

I attempted to flash the new 1.13 radio, but it failed, however, my "Tampered" warning disappeared.

Flash the radio.img via fastboot, not the zip.

Here's exactly what I did:
Downloaded the new OTA that Behold provided yesterday.
Unzipped it, then unzipped the firmware zip that was inside.
Pulled the radio.img from inside the firmware folder.
Flashed the radio via fastboot, (it will probably fail depending on your HBOOT) then rebooted my bootloader, and the "Tampered" was gone and hasn't came back.

Ya I trying to be lazy lol but will try that in a bit.

Writing radio with fastboot flash radio fails here, doesn't matter which one. hboot is 1.06, device is s-off.
D:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash radio radio.img
sending 'radio' (34345 KB)...
OKAY [ 2.590s]
writing 'radio'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 2.621s
fastboot reboot-bootloader right after didn't do the trick as well. ****

This didn't work for me either with hboot 1.06/s-off. I understood we needed and engineering hboot to flash a radio from fastboot.

I have hboot 1.06, before s-off i can flash radio with fastboot without any problem, with S-OFF i can't flash with fastboot.
But i can flash on recovery with this Sense-Radio-Installer-V4.zip

The link is in the General thread named "Just another 50mb update"....I am on HBOOT 1.14
Again, the radio flash failed, which is what I expected, but the warning did disappear for me.

Interesting. I'll try this method on my HTC One XL. So far it hasn't worked, but I'm very curious now. My HOX has HBOOT 1.09 so I guess it might not work. Regardless I'm going to experiment.

You need to add your CID and MID into.android-info.txt in the zip file.
fastboot getvar cid
fastboot getvar mid
Those are the commands I think

Gotcha. At that point, I should be able to use fastboot to super cid then flash the new firmware, correct?

Won't be able to use fastboot flash because that is an extended fastboot command and the new hboot doesn't support extended, only basic so you will have to flash the PG58IMG.zip through hboot
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio Z715e using xda premium
Okay. (Intermittently doing work right now. Thanks so much for the help.)
I add my cid and mid info to the zip that rolls me back to 1.17. Have that on my sd and boot into bootloader.
Now, I'd be 1.17, which should allow me to use fasboot to be super cid.
At this point, I can use an update zip for the new firmware, again putting it on the sd card and going into the bootloader.
Am I missing a step?
you can use fastboot on hboot 1.20. just supercid your phone and then flash the zip without changing anything

[Q] HTC One XL - Telstra

Hi All,
I am fairly new to all this, I have read countless posts and done everything I can but I am stuck.
I have a HBOOT 2.14 currently with S-ON.
I have installed TWRP in recovery but no custom mods work due to the HBOOT version.
SuperCID is 111111111 and is already set.
I want to be able to S-OFF my device so i can downgrade the HBOOT and use the custom roms.
I ran through the facepalm S-OFF procedure, it all runs correctly, although upon reboot it still says S-ON.
Does anyone know why this would be? Is there something I am missing?
I am doing this some the TWRP recovery mode as that is the only place I can access adb commands currently.
There is no working ROM currently installed, CM 10.1 is installed although it can't be used because the touchscreen doesn't work.
Any information people can provide me to get all this working would be of great help.
Happy to donate/pay someone to help me via teamviewer or whatever.
Thanks,
Tabmowtez

Yes that's the one I posted, it still requires S-OFF.
It seems all the fixes need S-OFF and that is the one thing I can't seem to get working as there is no ROM installed so I can't use supersu?

I will download ViperX3.4.0.zip and use the boot.img to flash it from adb and see how it goes.
I have tried AOSP and CM Roms and all have had the same issue of the TP not working though.
I'll see how this goes.
Just to confirm, it seems all ROMS based off of the 3.17 kernel and higher work with S-ON.
I have the HatkaXL-evita-v4.2.5_Sense5Elements ROM working after I did the following steps:
Place boot.img in sdk platform tools folder
Boot phone into fastboot usb
open your command prompt from the sdk files folder. (shift+right click-select open command window)
type: fastboot erase cache
type: fastboot flash boot boot.img
type: fastboot erase cache (just to be safe)
On phone select bootloader, then recovery.
Once TWRP loads (I'm using 2.4.4.0) go to wipe and select factory reset then wipe system and both caches
Then install the rom and go through setup
once setup is complete, UNCHECK restart now so it leaves the rom and goes back to TWRP.
Click on clear cache/davlik and then click reboot
Settings application keeps on crashing so I am going to try the aokp_evita_jb-mr1_build-4 ROM now after a backup.
I still have issues getting adb to recognise the device once the ROM is booted but that's a separate issue for now...
Are you sure your getting error 92 and not 99 when you flash the zip for s-off cause if your getting 99 you need to fastboot write your cid then reboot and try again
Sent from my One X using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
I'm definitely getting the error 92. My CID is already a SuperCID so would I have to do that again?
I have the ViperX ROM running now so I am happy, would still like to S-OFF though so I can try CM etc. after a hboot downgrade.

When I did the s-off to my One XL, the error 92 is normal and I just followed the steps in this thread and it worked fine

All good, I successfully S-OFF'd my device and downgraded my hboot to 1.09. Hopefully this means I can put any mod on now without flashing from fastboot first and having the touchscreen work!

If your bootloader is unlocked just flash twrp 2.3.3.1 or under. Then you can flash su or wipe everything and flash a ROM.

I've unlocked bootloader and installed twrp also flashed su and tried to flash CM10. I wiped cashe and and then installed CM10.1 and now it freezes on "HTC quitly briliant" screen and some warning notes under it.. what to do?
Is it necessary tu S-off?
Wipe everything not just cache. Then fastboot flash boot boot.IMG right before or after flashing the ROM. The boot.img should be extracted from the ROM you're flashing.

No. RUU doesn't "lock" anything. If S-on, you typically need to relock the bootloader to run an RUU (but as mentioned, running the 3.18 RUU with S-on and SuperCID will brick the device).
But with S-off, it doesn't matter if bootloader is locked or not.

Help with RUU'ing to 2.20

I've been running AOSP ROM's on my evita for a while now, but apparently with the 3.4 kernel you now need hboot 2.14 or higher and mine's at 1.09. My phone was unlocked with S-ON, but I did "fastboot oem lock" this morning because I read that it's necessary for an RUU. I downloaded the 2.20 RUU and tried to run the installer but I always get an Error [170] USB Connection Error. I have the HTC and adb drivers installed successfully and have tried to run the RUU as admin in both Sense and fastboot (bootloader). I'm a bit stumped and would really like to get AOSP back on my phone.
You need to S-off first.

Should I use facepalm for that then?
EDIT
I got s-off, but still no go. Still the error 170.
I know on my old Incredible I was able to rename the rom.zip from the RUU as PB99IMG.zip and put it on the root of my sdcard. Then in hboot it would detect it and ask to flash it. This isn't happening on my evita though. Is there a way to do that, or is that only for older htc devices?
Put phone into fastboot and try again. Check error log to see if it fails to identify your phone.
Open command prompt and type adb devices, if it does not see it then try installing new drivers. If it does see it then enter " adb shell reboot oem-78" that will reboot your phone in to RUU ready fastboot. Open ruu and try running it again.

Where can I find this error log? It did see my device, I did that command (which ended at the black htc screen) and I ran the RUU again but I still get the error 170. I'm also using this RUU http://bugsylawson.com/index.php/fi...320911-2-101053225l-release-271865-signedexe/

Okay, I think I found out what I've been doing wrong. I found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119610 and it turns out that the file I've been trying does NOT include the 2.14 hboot that I need. The one I need is the latest JB release, but someone said that if you flash it with superCID and S-ON that it will brick your device. I have superCID but S-OFF, does anyone think that will brick my device? Should I flash the RUU with the 1.09 hboot (which I'm running) first, and then flash the newest RUU? Also, it looks like the link I provided offers flashable OTA's of each update. Would those work/be recommended for TWRP?
Change cid to cingular "cws_001" I think. Super cid can cause brick.

Well I didn't do that...haha.

I tried booting and it didn't get to the boot animation so I rebooted to recovery and restored my backup. I'm going to try a stock zip without the modified updater-script and restore my CID to normal and try again.

The RUU will return your phone to completely stock, so of course you will not have root anymore. But, your unlocked bootloader and s-off status will survive the process so all you need to do is flash TWRP again and then you can flash a rooted ROM.
