Since you are s-off you can put twrp recovery.img in a firmware.zip and flash it in ruu mode with fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. No need to unlock bootloader.

Also need android-info.txt in the firmware.zip, that's it.

Also, if you really want to unlock bootloader, downgrade to hboot 1.4.4 and use revone to unlock. Then reflash GPE ruu.

Here is a firmware.zip containing TWRP 2.6.3.4 for m7ul that can be flashed in RUU mode with s-off: firmware_twrp.zip

Note: This firmware flashes TWRP recovery only, nothing else. All other firmware files (hboot, sbl, radio, etc.) will remain untouched. It does NOT factory reset, or erase /system or /data partitions.

To install, reboot into bootloader and then:

Code: 
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip firmware_twrp.zip
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader

Device will reboot into bootloader; select recovery and it will reboot into TWRP, then flash superuser/supersu to root.

Hi, thank you very much i did it but received this error:

C:\Users\SONYMANIAC\Android\Rom\adt-bundle-windows-x86-20131030\adt-bundle-windo
ws-x86-20131030\sdk\platform-tools>fastboot flash zip firmware_twrp.zip

sending 'zip' (9271 KB)...
FAILED (data transfer failure (Too many links))
finished. total time: 235.678s

It keep sending zip whitout answer...
I think so it is because the bootloader are locked but can't fine a effective method to unlock it.
I downgrade hboot from 1.54 to 1.44 and have installed KK 4.4.2 google edition if this information can help to solve...
Thank you again.

So you were able to flash the RUU-HTC_One_GE-2.14.1700.15.zip conversion RUU in fastboot, but not the firmware_twrp.zip ? That doesn't make sense, since with s-off bootloader lock state shouldn't matter.

From what I've read the 'too many links' error can be a corrupt zip, or USB port/cable problem.

Have you tried to flash the recovery.img directly with: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

You could just unlock the bootloader with revone: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2497712

The zip you created was intended for ruu mode if i read correctly, and the OP didn't "fastboot oem rebootRUU" first.

I'm not sure that's the case; the error from attempting to flash in 'regular' fastboot mode is:

Code:

Also fairly certain the error isn't caused by a locked bootloader. I just re-locked my bootloader and was able to flash firmware_twrp.zip in RUU mode just fine.

As far as I know (and tried... not this but other stuff), with a locked or relocked bootloader (I'm S-Off) any "fastboot flash ....." command will result in "FAILED (remote: not allowed)" or similar.

Basically, my conclusion:
A) "fastboot flash ...." (in normal mode) won't work unless UNLOCKED irrelevant whether S-On or S-Off

B) "fastboot flash zip ..." (in RUU mode) will only work if: LOCKED/RELOCKED with S-On, or S-Off and then lock status doesnt matter.

If you downgraded hboot to 1.44 then use revone, @cschmitt gave you a link. Since you are having issues unlocking bootloader using fastboot, use revone to unlock it should work since you are on 1.44.

    Since you are s-off you can put twrp recovery.img in a firmware.zip and flash it in ruu mode with fastboot flash zip firmware.zip. No need to unlock bootloader.

    Also need android-info.txt in the firmware.zip, that's it.
