Description
Verizon HTC One Plug-In for the RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer is now available!

WARNING: YOU MUST BE S-OFF TO USE THIS TOOL AND PLUG-IN

This plug-in will allow you to use the RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer written by regaw_leinad.

With the tool and this plug-in, you can easily create a custom HTC firmware zip for the Verizon HTC One containing a custom bootloader image. You will be able to edit the *** UNLOCKED *** text on the top to whatever you want it to say, change the S-OFF to S-ON, change the bootloader's minor version number, update the bootloader's date and time stamp, and either hide or customize the splash screen disclaimer. Using this tool to change S-OFF to S-ON changes only the text on the screen, it does not change your s-off status of the phone. Same goes for "locked"/"unlocked"/"Relocked" so be careful to remember the correct state of your phone.

Choosing the "Stock" option, the tool automatically sets your banner to say *** LOCKED ***, changes S-OFF to S-ON and hides the HTC Development Splash Screen Disclaimer.

This program will NOT flash the zip for you, but it will create a PN07VZW.ZIP file and save it your computer. From there, you then need to flash it via fastboot.

The process (flashing a new bootloader) is dangerous and may possibly brick your device if done incorrectly. You have been warned

This plug-in is based on the stock 1.54.000 hboot (v.10).


How To Flash A firmware zip (Devices without a removable sdcard)

  1. Reboot the phone into the bootloader by either:
    • Powering off your phone completely, then hold Volume-Down and Power until the phone boots into the bootloader
    • If you have the android sdk set up, type 'adb reboot-bootloader'
    • Use the RegawMOD Rebooter
  2. Connect your phone to the computer (if it isn't already) and issue the fastboot command
    Code:
    fastboot oem rebootRUU
  3. To flash the zip, issue the fastboot command
    Code:
    fastboot flash zip <[SIZE=2]YourZipName>.zip[/SIZE]
  4. The device's progress bar may not be complete, but when the fastboot command says it's complete, issue the fastboot command below to see your changes
    Code:
    fastboot reboot-bootloader
  5. To complete the process, issue the fastboot command below to reboot your phone to normal operation
    Code:
    fastboot reboot



As noted in #4, the progress bar may not reach 100% when flashing this, and the the progress bar will likely look like this:

Just be sure to get the success response from the fastboot flash command and reboot via fastboot. Do not remove your phone from the computer until it has rebooted from the fastboot reboot command.

Who wants me to change it to F*ck Verizon and then go into a store and have their "tech support" check it out?

will this v.10 hboot work correctly when I am still on firmware .8?

The answer is likely yes as long as you stay s-off, assuming only decryption keys were updated between hboots which is likely considering the hboot version number didn't increment between OTAs. Really though, the safest route is to install stock and let the v10 OTA apply. It is mostly just a radio update I believe, and then you're sure to have compatible firmware. You can stay s-off through this whole process.

Make sure you have the latest main program. You will get an error loading plug in with earlier versions. If your main program is current and you have only one plug in, then the program will automatically load the single plugin in the same directory.

Also double check the md5 signature of the downloaded plugin.

Update: Main program needs to be version 2.2.3, not 2.2.2 as originally stated. Thanks to jmotyka for finding that. OP Updated accordingly.

Im running windows 7 64bit Home Premium. .NET is installed.

That's strange. I have tested this on both 32-bit Windows XP and on Windows 7 64-bit (Professional) without any issues.

For the sake of troubleshooting, try downloading a different plug-in to see if it loads in the main program. Don't actually make a zip with the test plugin if it loads and absolutely do not flash it to your phone if you do make a zip... you'll end up with a brick. Be sure to delete the "other" plug-in after testing.

Can you post a screenshot of the error message?

Update: On my XP machine, I have the following .NET installed: 1.1, 2.0sp2, 3.0sp2, 3.5sp1, 4 client profile, 4 extended, and 4 multi-targeting pack. I can not check my Win7 64-bit machine for a while.

Right click on the plugin dll file, and in the General tab, click on "Unblock". You need to do that since the dll was downloaded from the internet. Doesn't the error message tell you to do that?
