Do I just flash back to stock, root and do the same procedure of obtaining S-OFF by doing Juopunutbear's method to acquire S-ON?
there's a guide here on how to return to S-on after S-off and return back to stock and lock back the bootloader

Do not do this!
If you obtained S-OFF via the wire trick, it will say "LOCKED," however, you still have full control.
Follow the guide to get your device's HBOOT down if you're S-OFF, since you are.

i dont know how to flash other rom, currently i'm using viper ics 3d beta 3.
how can i flash rom ?
what guide do you suggest?
Got an OPTUS HTC EVO 3D with unlocked bootloader S-ON, NOT rooted HBOOT 1.53.0007 with Stock ICS rom.
whenever I turn it on, it loads to the HTC logo and restarts, it also apply to the recovery mode, no matter using HBOOT, adb, fastboot mode are still the same(have tried to load different boot.img, recovery.img). I have read and tried lot of methods still doesn't work. Would relock the bootloader and load the OPTUS001 RUU the only solution to fix it? But the problem is that I don't have the NAND backup and couldn't find any of the ROM that is suitable. Any suggestion is appreciated. Thanks!
YES. Flashing a ruu will fix it.
For s-on users, lock bootloader with "fastboot oem lock" command. Download and run the RUU (it must be ics ruu). All RUUs are available from there -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2094402

Also, you must have adb drivers installed!

It is still with s-on and I couldn't change the CID, which is still remain OPTUS001. In this case, the only RUU that suits me is the OPTUS RUU, but I couldn't find any of them. Any idea?
Well, in theory it should be possible to flash any ruu even if the cid is not supported by default. If you download a ruu and run it, the ruu creates a temporary directory which holds both the stock rom and recovery. You need to add your cid in a file somewhere in the rom zip, then it can be installed. Don't ask me how and if it will work, since i don't know for sure.
Hey guys
First of all im a complete noob at all this.
okay so, my Evo 3D, i rooted it a year ago using a tutorial on xda, using a software Revolutionary.
Last week i had some problems with my battery, my phone wont turn on. I bought a new battery an now when i turn my phone on, it just gets stuck on the htc logo and then reboots. i tried many battery pull outs but none worked. Volume down + power does open the boot loader. here are the details:
SHOOTER_U PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

Please help me, ide really appreciate
if you dont mind losing your data then I'd recommend you RUU back to stock. I'm guessing you're on gingerbread judging by your radio so i would recommend you try an ICS ruu
---------- Post added at 06:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:31 PM ----------
RUU's are located here
I have my HTC One M8 running on the GPE firmware, and I'm trying to get back to stock. I tried with an unlocked bootloader, locked bootloader, ran the RUU as an admin, changed the CID to SuperCID and CWS__001 with no success. What confuses me is I've used this utility before to restore back to stock under the same circumstances with no problem. Hope someone can help, thanks

The GPE changes the partition layout and thus makes it more interesting to get back to stock. Just running a RUU won't do it. It could be not so hard, and it could be a nightmare as it was for me. Read, read, and read some more on this post, you will get it.

You posted the opposite information here (RUU will convert back to Sense from GPE) in Post #73: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2721435&page=8
What difficulties did you encounter with the RUU?
RUU should in theory re-write all partitions, so the fact the partition layout is different in GPE should not in itself make the RUU fail.
Also, the OP's error 159 is just wrong CID, so again I don't think its related to partition layout being different.

S-on or S-off (I assume s-on if you are messing with the CID in the first place). Also, you relocked the bootloader before running the RUU?
Did you make sure the CID was actually changed by doing adb getvar all?
So when I load into hboot, my phone says tampered, unlocked, m8_UL_Ca PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.16.0.0000
RADIO-1.16.21331931.LA11G
and other stuff. So i'm curious, is my bootloader unlocked? I can also get into twrp recovery, so idk if that means its unlocked. And I'm guessing its s-on, so how do you s-off? Also does s-on mean I can't flash any custom roms and kernals? thanks

Yes your bootloader is unlocked so you can install custom recoveries and install ROM's, you dont need to be S-OFF to flash most ROM's. To S-OFF you can try Firewater first, if it fails then you have to pay the $25 to S-OFF through Sunshine.
How do I use firewater when he discontinued it?
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app
You don't need s-off to flash ROMs or kernels. You do however need s-off to update firmware to 3.xx. And many current ROMs will have broken WiFi if you don't update the firmware.

Its not clear to me whether the exploit will still work if you already have (or can get) the files; or if its stopped working. Since an internet connection was needed for the exploit to work, I tend to believe the latter is true.
Since firewater wasn't working for most folks even before it was discontinued, its probably your best bet just to pay for sunshine if you want s-off.
EDIT: I have read on the firewater threads in the "international" M8 section, that firewater is indeed an online service, and is now dead.
