[Q] updating to 4.4/s-off?/recovering to factory - AT&T HTC One (M7)

I purchased a ATT HTC One from one of my friends, it was rooted and had TWRP installed. It was also running Bigxie 4.3 GPe rom. I would like to go to the GPe 4.4 rom but the problem im having is all they ones I can find say they require S-OFF. My phone is S-ON and I have not been able to obtain S-OFF with revone or rumrunner. I tried moonshine but my phone would not boot after the fastboot process. Revone gives me an error 1 and rumrunner tells me to flash a unsecure kernal and try again. The phone is hboot 1.44. After doing a little research I found that someone pleople are saying to go back to the factory rom, the problem is im not sure if the guy backed up the factory rom before he flashed the 4.3 GPe rom. I have asked him and he can remember and blew me off... so my question is how can I find out if he backed up the factory rom, how to restore it or how to obtain S-OFF with bigxie 4.3 GPe rom. Thanks in advance for the help, btw im a noob at this so the more dumbed down responses the better

Rumrunner works just fine on your hboot. Reread the instructions and try again.
Also read up on how you make a backup of your soff when you are done.

If you have an AT&T phone - MID - PN0712000 - CID - CWS__001
just run this http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_1-26-502-15-zip/
Install the stock recovery and take the OTA Update... then just use rumrunner to s-off

Thanks cLsA, I restored that RUU and stock recovery, it was still not able to get rumrunner to work... error -6 this time. Im just giving up on getting 4.4... this is becoming a lot more trouble than its worth. I do have one more question though, is there a way to hide the system update is ready to install on 4.3 GPe ROM?

I used the developers edition and had the 4.4 updated in 30 min or so

I installed the guru with root off. rumrunner would not run unless I had root so I installed the newest TWRP and gained root access. Rumrunner then did get futher but still gave me an error. I tried tried with revone then but it gave me a error -6. Also when I installed the guru I did not have a OTA update ready. My phone said it was already up to date. So I used TWRP and restored from a backup of my 4.3GPe rom.
My phone is HBOOT 1.44
