Hi guys. I'm a noob
so I kinda need some help. My HTC One is the M7UL and its on S-ON. Its on an unofficial CM11 custom ROM. Could anyone please give me detailed instructions on how 2 go back to Sense 5.5 and how to remove the "Tampered" on the bootloader menu? Thx a mile

1- why not just flash a custom Sense ROM?

2- If you really need/want to go back to 100% stock (eg for warranty), you can check out my guide (in my signature), but you'll need go to S-Off first, and once you are, I recommend staying S-Off.

3- if you just want a quick and easy way just to get back a stock Sense ROM, you can also you a Guru Reset ROM, compatible with your firmware: http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/stock-rom-downloads/

Thx a lot. But I believe that I can S-OFF only if I'm on stock HTC ROM. Or if im mistaken, could you please send me the link to S-OFF while I'm on the CM ROM itself.
Thx again

no version-main, again :confused:

you're on hboot 1.55, HTC__J15, PN0710, so you're firmware should be 3.62.401.1, you can try one of the following ROMs, to get S-Off using rumrunner: either ARHD 31.6 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2183023
or Guru Reset: http://www.htc1guru.com/dld/guru_reset_m7_3-62-401-1-zip/ (select ROOT, unselect "stock recovery")

and try to get s-off using rumrunner

PS: remove IMEI and s/n from your post

it's your firmware version, been seeing quite a few posts where the number doesnt show up, but cant figure out why.

So you S-Off, all good?

Feel free to hit the thanks button if i've helped, and add [SOLVED] to main thread title if all is good. cheers
