Ah.. i see, then no. i'm currently looking for S-OFF HBOOT 1.57 without sunshine
Sunshine is the only way to achieve s-off on 1.57+
Ah.. i see, then no. i'm currently looking for S-OFF HBOOT 1.57 without sunshine
ok... its a little bit confusing, you are aware that sunshine is the only method available to s-off hboot 1.57+ but you are looking to achieve s-off without sunshine... So you are developing your own exploit?
i know that sunshine is the only way to S-OFF if the HBOOT version is 1.57. And i was looking for a way to downgrade to earlier version of HBOOT, so i could use other exploits that used to work.
downgrading without S-OFF was doable on other HTC devices i owned, so i thought there could be a way.
Hi there, Thanks for your helpful information. I found and downloaded "PN07IMG_M7_U_L50_SENSE60_MR_hTC_Asia_WWE_7.21.707.121_Radio_4T.35.3218.16_10.33Q.1718.01D_release_431111_signed.zip" for my HTC One M7. My phn details are as follows:

As per your instruction, I checked the MID and CID which matched exactly. I performed the steps enumerated by you. But I faced the following issue:
fastboot oem rebootRUU - the process was successful
First time flash was failed, as told by you, as my firmware was firmware than the RUU. But CMD is not allowing me to do the same command again. It says "sending 'zip'.......(50277 KB)" and then nothing happens. This is what I am getting:

What should I do now. Please help
I need help please. I relocked htc m7 now i cant turn it on. its stuck in bootloader. Its was in a custom rom. please help me to go back to previous rom or to stock rom
If you relock the booloader with custom software installed, it will not boot. Unlock the bootloader again or flash a ruu on your phone.

You need at least hboot 1.57 (version-main 6.xx.502.x) to flash a 7.xx.502.x ruu. Best way imo is with s-off so you can convert to another version and get rid of the AT&T software and receive ota updates (dev edition or unlocked wwe)You will need a Windows PC to flash any lollipop ruu.zip because it must be flashed using htc_fastboot.exe (.exe = Windows only) because the fastboot version from the sdk-tools can't handle a 1.5gb file. This will solve your first problem
Second problem to come, you need at least hboot 1.57 and the version-main to be at least 6.xx.xxx.x to flash a Lillpop (7.xx.xxx.x RUU) so you'll have to update your firmware before flashing the RUU. Flash this (Sorry I had to omit your link so that I could post. This is my first post.) and then flash your 7.xx.1540.xx RUU.
Hey All. Hey Alray I hope you are still monitoring this thread and can help me. I have had my One M7 AT&T variant for just about two years now and don't ask me why but I juuuust decided to update it. This all started with me trying to update it to the official RUU 7.23.502.4 from HTC's website. It kept failing with a 158 error message. It was completely stock 4.1.2 JB locked bootloader, unrooted and S-On. I managed to run the RUU 3.17.502.3 exe successfully, which the phone is still running. Next I tried to run the RUU 4.18.502.7 and got a 155 unknown error. Same error message also when I tried to run the RUU 7.23.502.4 exe. I have been trying to flash the rom.zip files for the KitKat and Lollipop RUUs via fastboot which keep failing with the same "Invalid sparse file format at header magi" error. However since I saw your advice that you have to use htc_fastboot to flash the large rom.zip files from htc, I tried using it with the extracted rom.zip, android-info.txt and htc_fastboot files from the KitKat 4.18.502.7 RUU but I now have a new error (See below):
