Hey everyone, I'm having an issue unlocking my bootloader after updating the firmware.
When preparing to install the newest version of Android Revolution HD I thought it'd be a good time to update my firmware before switching to the KitKat based ROM. I used the firmware and instructions from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182823
All went well until I tried to unlock the bootloader. I can complete all the steps through sending the Unlock_code.bin to the phone, which is successfully sent via fastboot, but I never get the notice on the phone to unlock. Nothing happens.
I believe my best course of action is to flash an RUU but I can't find any that are 4.06.1540.2 or higher at the moment and with S-ON and a locked bootloader, I can't load anything earlier.
If anyone has any insights I'd be most gracious, I'm currently without a phone and have to lug around a Galaxy Tab 3 for mobile connectivity.
Here's my getvar:
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.56.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 4A.22.3263.14

More info
I'll also note that I've tried two different computers, three different cables, and I've probably tried at least 20 different Unlock_code.bins.
I'm really at a loss here, I can flash both 4.06.1540.2 and 4.06.1540.3 to the device from Mike's firmware link; the device has no problems communicating via fastboot. It's just not asking me if I want to unlock after a successful code transfer.

So i have my htc one (m7), and i was trying to get it back to stock htc sense, because is was on cyanogenmod and i didn't really like it. i have used the tutorial from htc-one.wonderhowto .com ... I followed all the steps (relocked bootloader and downloaded HTC program), but the RUU wasn't compatible, i didn't know that at the time. So I was searching for another RUU, but I coudn't find a one to fit my device.
This is what *fastboot getvar all* gives me:

As you can see, i currently have s-on, and i can't find a proper RUU. So i tryed if there was a way to set my s-on to s-off. but i can't do that with rumrunner, since i am not able to uncheck *fastboot* in android settings, because i can't boot. Note: i have Clockworkmod Recovery installed. I live in the Netherlands.
Can anyone help me with this? i'm new to all this info so i dont know if there is an other way to simply install the stock htc rom.
I have recently decided to root my HTC one m7 to install stock android and failed, i installed kernels and roms but i didn't know i had to have s-off now my phone is in a boot loop.I have tried too install the ruu files but with no success so i am asking for someone to help me.

You don't have to S-Off to install custom roms and kernels, it just makes it easier to install. To install while S-On, you must extract the boot.img file from the rom zip and install via fastboot while in bootloader mode. If you are trying to restore to stock with an RUU, you must relock the bootloader or the RUU won't run properly and fail.
Repy
I have re-locked and tried to install my ruu file but it always fails saying that my phone got disconnected .Also my "version-main" is blank.
I managed to fix it thanks for your reply es0tericcha0s you have finished my 3 day ordeal.

Here is a RUU 4.18.502.7, your bootloader must be locked to run this. All you have to do is download this to your computer and with the phone on connect it to the computer. Double click the file and follow the instructions on the screen.

If that RUU gives you problems try flashing just the firmware first. It's here >https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407580581
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
fastboot reboot
thanks for the help, the process of the firmware was successful!
but unfortunately the problem is not solved.
I recently dropped in the water this phone (but after drying the phone even a week worked without problems).
probably in the phone spoiled, not part of the software ...
but if there is any way to revive a phone - please let us know ...
Hi All,
After around with my phone for many hours attempting to flash the latest android I have managed to break my WiFi, as I can no longer turn it on. I believe this is due to flashing an incorrect firmware file but I am not sure.
Currently I am running Android Revolution HD 30.1 but I also had the same problems with 4.X roms as well. My recovery image is: openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0. I was previously on 4.4.3 stock image which was rooted.

The last firmware file I flashed was: /db_mirror/Firmware/HTC/HTC_One_M8/401/3.28.401.9.zip (xda7.androidrevolution.org)
Any help with either what firmware to flash or another way to fix the WiFi will be most appreciated.
Just realised I have posted this in the wrong section, my phone isnt A&T I am UK based and I bought the phone SIM free. Unfortunately I cant seem the delete the thread...
I read in multiple places that you need firmware 4.16.401.9 for htc sense lollipop. For now try to use CM12 and see if your wifi works that way. If so then it is just a matter waiting for a signed firmware to get it to work with sense lollipop.
I have a bone stock M8 on Marshmallow. It suddenly started having com.htc.contacts errors and the phone becomes unavailable. I've done multiple recoveries, resets and cache clearing. Sometimes it comes back for awhile but soon eras out. I chatted with HTC support and they suggested reloading the rom so I downloaded the AT&T version and did all the steps per the instructions and started the update. It gets stuck on the "sending" stage and never completes. Reading the forum I saw Sync Manager can be a blocker so I didn't do it through that but no go. Am I missing something? Thanks I searched but didn't find this.
I assume you actually have the AT&T version M8?
If so, RUU stuck "sending" is common. You may need to find a Win7 PC with USB 2.0, which has the best chance of compatibility.
