I used the RUU to revert completely to stock a couple of weeks ago which reverted my rumrunner unlock and S-OFF to re-locked and S-ON status. Today I tried to gain S-OFF and unlocked so I could flash one of the new sense 6 roms, but I cannot get it to work. I used rumrunner to do it but rumrunner only S-OFF my device. My HBOOT still says relocked. Fastboot is not allowing me to flash a new recovery so I can gain root and I get an error when I try to fastboot oem unlock.
When I flash recovery I get "FAILED <remote: not allowed>" error.
When I try to fastboot oem unlock I get "<bootloader> [ERR] Command error !!!"
If anyone has any solutions to this it would be greatly appreciated.

The solution to this problem can be found here, just install ROM Manager and flash CWR from there. Fastboot commands still don't work however.

Working on this for 2 straight days. I was previously running ViperRom and decided to switch over to SolidRom. I tried everything to get Solidrom working. "fastboot flash boot" command doesn't seem to flash anything for me and gives me the FAILED (remote: not allowed) message.
As of now i'm running:
Hboot 1.58 "locked"
S-off
Installed the link on SolidRom's forum: /RUU_Shooter_ICS_35_S_Sprint_WWE_2.89.651.2_Radio_1.09.00.0706__NV_SPCS_1.43_release_271101_signed.exe
When i try to get into recovery (revolutionary cwm) it just gives me the htc error screen with a phone and an exclaimation mark.
when i boot my phone up, it looks like its on a stock rom: htc sense 3.6, android 4.0.3, kernel 3.0.16
SOMEONE HELP I'M DYING!

It is like that because your HBOOT doesn't allow some fastboot commands. I think you unlocked your phone with "wire-trick", so all you need is to use some HBOOT (like JuoponutBear HBOOT for your phone - CDMA right?, which you can find on www.unlimited.io, or other ones which allow those commands). When you do that, you will be able to use fastboot flash, erase etc...

When you flashed the RUU it replaced your CWM recovery with the stock recovery and your Revolutionary hboot with the stock 1.58 bootloader. You need to reflash your Revolutionary bootloader and CWM recovery, although it might be worth considering an upgrade to 4EXT recovery.
Edit: This post is a guide to change your hboot and you should be able to flash a recovery with fastboot after that.

the command by the way is
"fastboot flash boot boot.img"
try that and if not try back
but that wont fix the recovery screen problem....you have to bkot into hboot ad then go to fastboot ....hook up the usb cable and then type in this : "fastbotr flash recovery (name of your recovery).img"...no spaces...
from there you should get to your old recovery screen
So I was on Mean bean but I was told I would need to go s-off or relock to get caught up with 3.16
Since I'm on win8 64Bit I chose to relock
So This is what I did
I booted into fact boot
Via ADB I rean fastboot OEM lock
It would then only boot and reboot into fastboot?
I ran the 3.15 RUU and it completed successful but it will not boot only into fast boot.
Any ideas?
Should mention
****Tampered****
****Relocked****
HBOOT 2.09
Progress so far
I unlocked phone again via htcdev.com
Phone is rebooting to Meanbean?
Ok it finally rebooted and looks like all is ok!
Using Hasoon's tried to flash 4EXT recovery. got error message:
(Bootloader) Signature Checking
FAILED (remote:signature verify failure)
Read I can do this with s=on and relocked bootloader.
Can anyone explain this? Thanks.
stock
s=on
bootloader relocked
You need to unlock your bootloader
hello all,
I recently got an htc wildfire(s-off from stock) but i want to unlock the bootloader but fastboot gives me an error whenever i type fastboot oem get_identifier_token .pls i dont know what to do. The RUU update keep failing i cant update the hboot, even my stock recovery was deleted now i dont even have recovery again:crying:
I am rooted with an unlocked bootloader (went from TWRP back to Stock recovery a few weeks ago). I was reading about the RUU, but someone said you need to be S-off to do it. Is this true? And if not, how can I use the RUU then?
need to know this too mine was rooted bootloader is unlocked but for some reason its s-on
I cannot use firewater cause my phone won't boot past htc logo and when I true ancestor thru twrp it says failed .
I'm pulling my hair out some one help
I don't think you need to be S-Off. But I think you do need to re-lock the bootloader though not sure on that.
relock the bootloader and flash stock recovery, then use the RUU if you want an easy way to relock the bootloader and flash the stock recovery use HTC One 2014 (M8) All-In-One Toolkit from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2699065 by hasoon2000
or enter recovery , fastboot, then try running the RUU
fastboot oem lock will lock bootloader again...make sure you have stock recovery, you can boot into bootloader, connect via fastboot mode and run ruu from there
