Sorry if it is a n00b question.. But can I update my firmware WITHOUT S-Off? Right now I can't afford the only method which costs $25usd :/
[One (M8) Android Development] Alttu:
You can via official OTA update, otherwise not..

3.28.401.9 to 4.16.401.10

Hi guys,

Think I'm in a similar position to lukatluke a few posts up. I'm still on ARHD 22.1, with firmware 3.28.401.9. Was waiting like many others for exposed framework on lollipop.

When looking at the directory listing of firmware for ARHD I noticed just the 4.16.401.10 for the 4.xx series. Have all firmware updates for 4.xx series been merged into one zip?

I remember there being a few updates over the past couple of months, and you would have to install each firmware update rather than just the latest one, otherwise you would have wifi problems. But with there now just being one in the series, is it ok to update 4.16.401.10 straight from 3.28.401.9? Just want to double check before I go ahead with the change from kitkat to lollipop...
[One (M8) Android Development] Alttu:
NO!

You remember right!

You need to flash all of them incrementally! ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
That's actually not correct: I'm S-off and I updated my firmware flashing the signed zip.
[One (M8) Android Development] DLG187:
wow... a couple days away and there's been a ton of updates! [MENTION=1631739]mike1986.[/MENTION] do you ever sleep???

Getting my stuff over to 34.6 asap.
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
Which firmware did you have before flashing the one you wrote?

Remember to flash them incrementally.
[One (M8) Android Development] lukeatluke:
OH NO....'great news'.

I only flashed 4.16.401.10, what now? Before it was probably 3.xx?!
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
If it was 3.28 etc. no problem.

Should work now.
[One (M8) Android Development] mike1986.:
Rarely mate :p
[One (M8) Android Development] jackbrom:
That's what I thought, but there is only one firmware to download in the 4.xx series, hence my question...how can i flash them incrementally when there is only one? Wondered if all updates were now in one zip, which is possible as it worked for lukatluke flashing just the one zip from 3.28.xxx
[One (M8) Android Development] JonasL1:
Yes you can, but only if your CID and MID match the one from the firmware. Just show us the results of fastboot getvar all. (Don't forgot to hide you serial and eid number if I'm not wrong.) Then we can help you to see of there is a firmware for your device.
[One (M8) Android Development] lukeatluke:
Unfortunately it doesn't.

I flashed TWRP recovery, installed 34.6 ROM, under "About" sas:

Build number: 4.16.401.10 CL448934 release-keys

Baseband version 1.19.21331147A1.09G_20.57.4196.01L_F

Kernel 3.4.0-g6af28ec

Android version: 5.0.1

Software number Android Revolution HD 34.6 by [MENTION=6119185]Mike1986[/MENTION]

I don't even know what i'm doing wrong.

How can i go back to 4.4.4 - 22.2 ARHD? :confused:
[One (M8) Android Development] JonasL1:
Just flash it, it will work with the newer firmware.
[One (M8) Android Development] lukeatluke:
"Great" and alsow stuck in bootloop after rebooting for first time. Seems i'm getting out of date :|
[One (M8) Android Development] rvangers:
Certainly not Rom related...

Still on ARHD 22 and same things for me....

Honestly, don't now when it happened !

[One (M8) Android Development] zebidybob:
No. They are signed zips from HTC so you have to flash them incrementally the same way you would get ota's. Else you might get a mismatch and that can cause lots of problems.

If you are s-off then I recommend [MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION] wipe fuu. Yes I meant wipe - safest option. But back up everything.
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
As I said before, post your "getvar all" results here. If not me, surely somebody will help.

Btw, if you're in a boot loop you did something wrong. Please specify which recovery you're using.

If anyone is so kind, PLEASE describe the correct way.

...my way was:

Lock bootloader,

Flash firmware(4.16.401.10)

unlock bootloader,

flash recovery (i have TWRP 2.7.0.2 Team win Recovery Project)

flash boot.img,

flash ROM.

I tried 22.2 HD ROM and with 4.16.401.10 it won't turn on wi-fi :(

EDIT: it changed firmware to 3.28.401, but wi-fi just greys out when i want to turn it on.
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
[ROM] Android Revolution HD 34.6 • ART • High Quality &amp; Performance • 4.16.40...

Did you PAY ATTENTION while flashing the firmware? At certain point it asks you to quickly reinsert the command to finish the update. Did you do that?

The fact your "version main" is empty is VERY strange...
[One (M8) Android Development] .Ryker:
I think it might be the Facebook HTC Extension to blame. Seems a lot of people are having an issue with it.
[One (M8) Android Development] JonasL1:
You have the latest firmware that is on [MENTION=6119185]Mike1986[/MENTION] firmware collection. I don't know if lollipop is already released for AT&T carrier model. If yes you have to find all the signed firmwares and flash them, since you are on a very old firmware. If no, then you are stuck on the latest kit kat release. You can always return to stock rom and flash the OTA updates. If you have lollipop then on stock, you can safely flash the latest ARHD.
[One (M8) Android Development] mike1986.:
I would try with older service pack anyway.
[One (M8) Android Development] p5wdh:
Hi! how to get rid of optimizing apps every reboot? What do i need to format in twrp? I dont want to lose settings and data...
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
Try a cache wipe from recovery.
[One (M8) Android Development] lukeatluke:
Didn't see anything to re-insert :confused:

I hope this will fix my problem and many more users in future.

I'm waiting for phone to charge a bit.

Interesting question is why doesn't then work 22.2 HD ROM, if i didn't flash new one over...
[One (M8) Android Development] p5wdh:
Already done wipe dalvic and cache still same problem.. it happens after installing xposed installer
[One (M8) Android Development] mike1986.:
how many apps are there?
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
I guess 'cause something went wrong flashing the firmware. I'd try again and check the results.
[One (M8) Android Development] p5wdh:
4 apps... i even tried to removed all modules still same problem..
[One (M8) Android Development] Zulake:
Kernel is lurking quite a big amount of power here, about half of all the battery goes towards it. I did a clean install not too long ago (like 6 days ago) but it's still sucking too much to my liking.

I also disabled as much apps as possible, also freezed some and deleted a few things here and there. Pretty much most HTC/Google things I don't use are gone.

I'm running 34.4 by the way.

Anyone able to tell me why it's sucking so much battery here?
[One (M8) Android Development] tomiga:
Unfortunately still a lot of wakelocks. I updated GMS/Google Play Services to the latest version manually, so I'll see if that has any results.
[One (M8) Android Development] jackbrom:
P.S

I understand what you are saying. Is there a link with all firmware updates for 4.16.401.xx? If there is, it's pretty straight forward I guess. Whereas at the moment all I can see is 4.16.401.10
[One (M8) Android Development] lukeatluke:
Unfortunately I don't know everything. If I knew the answers, i wouldn't spend 20hours and counting for toying with phone, which I desperately need...I'm sorry to bother all of you, but someday, somewhere all of us will need a little bit of help...today is unfortunately my day! :(

Is there a way to change CID without S-OFF?

I don't have paypal...

Getvar results while flashing firmware - if i'm thinking correctly, error "42 custom id check fail" because my CID isn't in .txt.

[One (M8) Android Development] ultimatepichu:
Questions:

0. What is/are the firmware file(s) that you are flashing?

1. Did you "fastboot oem rebootRUU" first before you flash?

2. Is your firmware file(s) that you are flashing matches your CID, which is VODAP120?

note:

1. You are S-On, that means the CID must match.

2. You can't downgrade firmware because of S-On.

I can't find any firmware which could update my phone - my cid VODAP120.

Thanks, have a great day guys!
[One (M8) Android Development] lukeatluke:
Thanks again for your time!

Firmware which i wanted to flash was 4.16.401.10 - now i see, that it doesn't match the CID, which i can't change because I can't get S-OFF(can't pay via paypal).

Is there a way to get ARHD 22.1 ROM, which matches my old firmware, so that my phone would be once again functional?
[One (M8) Android Development] Souldrinker:
No, having an empty version-main is not strange since he's using an ancient recovery that had a bug that messed up the version main. So I suggest he should update his recovery before further flashing.
[One (M8) Android Development] McAlister:
Sense 6 toolbox beta doesn't work as well as expected (unable after the first boot then disable after the other boot, no way to make it unable except after a cache wipe) THAT 'S WHY I am now very ready for sense 7!

Have a good Wednesday everybody.
[One (M8) Android Development] karluk:
Sense is not only about the Blinkfeed it's also about the visuals. Sense 7 will have more visual customization options (themes app), navigation control options, new widgets (sense home), new photo editor and some other new catchy apps :p
[One (M8) Android Development] maxito71:
Didn't know that. Btw we surely know now that he messed up with the wrong firmware but I agree with your suggestion: first things first ;)
[One (M8) Android Development] Talal916:
Been asking this for several days. Still no answer. Everytime I try to flash, it fails on creating additional symlinks. I think it might be because Verizon firmware (4.17.xxx.xx) is higher than the 4.16 this ROM requires.
[One (M8) Android Development] y2kbadbug:
Thank you sir for explaining that.

[MENTION=6119185]Mike1986[/MENTION] I saw someone ask this earlier but didn't see an answer. I remember awhile ago you said you were going to drop Verizon support, is that still the case?
[One (M8) Android Development] zebidybob:
If you use sneakyghosts FUU you can just flash the latest one as he has made them full updates, but you have to be a-off.

[One (M8) Android Development] stathis95194:

[One (M8) Android Development] navid0308:
you'll need to update firmware, do some digging and find the correct firmware that MATCHES your MID and CID and flash it

BUT if you're S-ON, go back to stock and wait for official OTA to 4.x firmware; also with S-ON, you'll need to lock up bootloader again for flashing RUU or taking OTA I think. Better safe than sorry!

HTC sdk api level is 6.55 I think but it's shown as unknown even on the stock lollipop for M8

[One (M8) Android Development] datoch:

[One (M8) Android Development] rickylambert:
Kernel?

Are your flashing a Verizon compatible kernel right after ROM(no reboot)? Your firmware is OK, I´d recommend Elite or Hypernova from the Verizon M8 thread.
[One (M8) Android Development] Electronic Punk:
Thanks mate, I have been running modless, soul searching for a replacement -- okn ot quite that bad, but glad to see it back!
[One (M8) Android Development] rickylambert:
Yes it does. Just be sure to flash a compatible kernel right after ROM(no reboot). I´d recommend Elite or Hypernova from Verizon thread.
[One (M8) Android Development] Captain_Throwback:
It takes more than a kernel for the ROM to work fully on Verizon. That'll get it booting, but not fully working. Verizon isn't supported by the ROM, not until some pulls the proper files and provides them to [MENTION=1631739]mike1986.[/MENTION] so he can add it.
[One (M8) Android Development] zosopage:
Yeah, what he said is true.... I tried it and found out the hard way.... I must have missed that in the op page... sigh...
[One (M8) Android Development] rickylambert:
Yes, I know ARHD does not support Verizon out of the box and changing kernel is by no means warranty of full compatibility. However we´re several VZW owners who are outta Verizon network and happily using ARHD. The "flash ROM, then kernel" method proved to be good for me on every release for the last 4-5 months, no issues at all. And tried that on ViperOne and Skydragon successfully, too -before they added native support.

Far from being an expert, just sharing my experience. And of course we´re waiting for official support.
[One (M8) Android Development] KID_1194:
Mike personally told me that this rom will work fine on verizon (just GSM) without the need of a kernel other than the stock. Have anyone tried that? What did you face when you flashed this rom?

Is there a way to update ARHD without having to run the full installer and reselecting everything again?
[One (M8) Android Development] navid0308:
after using the current arhd you can tell that mike is probably a vampire or sth who never sleeps and always works

because a custom rom developed by mere human(s) could not be this stable and perfect :p

so as much as im jealous of the RU's, im sure we'll get 40.x pretty soon (that too very stable)!
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:

[One (M8) Android Development] zosopage:
I read the op and no where in there that I saw, stated that if you were on Verizon, you needed to use another kernel.. not blaming anyone, just making fun of all those trolls that state "did you read the op?". I got in a boot loop back to bootloader. Not a huge deal, I just got back into recovery and flash restored my backup.. I was on this ROM way back when I got my M8, but stuck with another one for the customization options that it offers, but I thought I would try Mike's again just for the hell of it. I can wait for official support for verizon, I am in no hurry as my phone works extremely well, has 2 days of battery life and very smooth...

If it points in the wrong direction, try slowly flipping over your phone and then back. That works for me.

By flipping I mean turning it over to the left or the right, so that the screen faces the ground instead of your face, then put it back.

Do this while using the compass.
