I'm confused about the deployment of 700mhz LTE in Canada and whether the M8 will support it on every carrier. The M8 supports 700mhz on band 17 if I read correctly.

I don't understand wireless much so please correct me if I'm wrong. Every carrier supports 700mhz LTE on band 17 as far as I know. But they're each assigned different blocks i.e. A, B, C, D, etc.

I don't know whether the different blocks matter. So if I'm on Telus, will the M8 support their deployment of 700mhz?

Thanks
[One (M8) General] LNJ:
It all depends if your area has Band 17 coverage. Some parts of my city does and the rest is band 4 and 7.
[One (M8) General] mattkroeder:
I'm in southern Ontario. Well, the Toronto are specifically but I travel around southern Ontario a lot. Do you happen to know what it is in the GTA?
[One (M8) General] LNJ:
Sorry no idea about Telus. I thought they were only using Band 4 at the moment. Bell uses 4 and 7 and Rogers uses 4, 7 and 17.

I could be wrong on Bellus though as I'm a Rogers user.

Rogers has a map of what frequency they use in their coverage area.

Somehow, my backup disapered from my HTC Telus M8 phone... the stock image on page 1 doesn't work. When trying to install it, it loads for a few seconds then quits.

Any chance of getting another copy??

Afternoon all

Recently picked up a M8 to replace my waterlogged phone. Loving it so far. One question....google cannot seem to give me a straight answer on what LTE bands this phone supports

GSM Arena says the AT&T version supports LTE 700 / 850 / 1700 / 1800 / 1900 / 2100 / 2600 but I cannot get anything concrete for Rogers.

Reason I ask..I spent a lot of time overseas and would like to enjoy LTE in New Zealand (1800/2600/700) and Australia (1800/850)

So my question is...next time I go over (it is already unlocked, etc. etc) when I toss in a local SIM, will I get H+ or LTE ?

Thank you

Hi im on 4.4.3 for my canadian (Bell) HTC one m8. I cant seem to get adb and fastboot to work on my phone.

Are you entering that command while booted into fastboot? ADB commands only work while booted into system. Try issuing the command fastboot devices.

Aah then I have reached the correct person to ask these question. i have installed the latest jdk and android studio. however android studio keeps giving me a weird error about setting environment.

First off, if you are trying to get the attention of a person trying to help you for a response, you have to use the reply button. That way a notification is sent to that person. I just stumbled onto this post by chance and recognized your name.

Okay, you probably don't have the drivers installed, or you have HTC Sync on your PC, and that does not play nice with ADB. If you have HTC Sync on your PC, uninstall it. You should already have the drivers installed through it, and it is mostly useless after that. If you don't have HTC Sync on your PC, you can get the drivers here.

You can see if the drivers are installed by having your phone hooked up to your PC, and going to Device Manager. Enter Device Manager it in the search box in your start menu, and if you see a yellow exclamation point where your phone is listed (either "My HTC" or "Android"), then you don't have the drivers installed.

Check it first, and if you see that yellow "!", get the drivers.

TWRP Version

Hi Everyone! My apologies if this was answered already I couldnt find anything through search.

I'm looking to install a custom rom (Revolution). To do that I have to flash new firmware. Apparently flashing new firmware also resets custom recovery so I need a custom recovery image. I'd prefer TWRP although I'd go for anything. I previously paid someone to root my phone and I have TWRP 2.8.03 installed, but I don't know exactly which version.

Here is my issue: I cannot find the image file for TWRP for my device. I have the Canadian HTC one m8 (M8_UL) given to me by Bell (CID BM__001). I got the product code from the recovery page and from doing fastboot getvar all (so I think I don't have M8_UL_CDN) but in any case, the TWRP website only seems to have M8, and two other versions for US carriers. Which image should I use?

Thanks for any help!

S
[One (M8) General] caanda45:
Ok here is the link for the TWRP image file....http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m8

Are you s-off? If not get s-off as it allows you to do anything with your phone. Sunshine is only the real option and it costs. Once that is done use Vomer`s guide to do the rest. Here is Vomer`s guide for the M8...http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727

This will tell you how to flash, get super cid, unlock, root etc....

TWRP 2.8.0.3 is a okay version of TWRP, only one newer which is 2.8.0.4. The numbers are the version.

Okay re read your question, this firmware can be flashed through fastboot, it does not havea img file or arecovery file and it will keep your TWRP recovery intact....http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=58237583&postcount=916.....has to be flashed in fastboot or as a RUU.

Not sure really what you have as per, unlocked, rooted , s-off etc.

But you have now some reading to do....
[One (M8) General] xunholyx:
There is no 2.8.0.4, but there is a 2.8.0.3 and three updates after that. 2.8.4.0 is the newest. Just sayin...... ;)
[One (M8) General] skilzorz:
version

Thanks for your help and to xunholyx. So that link goes to the GSM version of the phone... will that work with the M8_UL? My phone is S-ON. I'm reading a flashing guide from XDA for my phone and it seems to suggest that S-Off is not necessary so long as the phone is unlocked through HTC (which mine was).
[One (M8) General] xunholyx:
It should. I'm on Telus as well, and use International WWE firmware. (GSM)

[One (M8) General] adotkdotjh:
Hmm. I made a nand backup prior to and after the update. Would restoring the backup and downloading the ota again work?

[One (M8) General] :
It should work... But I've never tried, and not sure about s-on.... So I don't want to just say yeah. Lol

I'd wait for someone to confirm. ?

Why do you want the file though?
[One (M8) General] xunholyx:
Restoring the backup won't restore firmware. If you were S-off, you could probably revert to the last firmware version by flashing it or running an RUU, then take the OTA, but seeing as how you are S-on, you aren't able to go back to an older version.

Yes you should get the OTA downloaded again. Don't try to install it, just copy it off!

Rogers OTA?

Has anyone on the Rogers network seen the Lollipop update yet today? I know there was an article that said Bell and a couple others were getting it late last week and that Rogers and the rest in Canada were getting it starting Feb 2nd. Then I saw some articles about how most carries in the States were delayed. Wondered if Rogers fell into the same boat as them as we are usually very similar to AT&T on most devices.

I haven't seen anything yet but I know they sometime roll these updates out in waves though so maybe it's not my turn yet in the que.

The Rogers OS Update page doesn't indicate it's "Coming Soon" but I think when we went to 4.4.4 it just showed up as Avaliable.

Problems in applying OTA on M8

Hi everyone,

here is my situation, i Have an M8 from Rogers but i unlocked it and now i'm on Virgin Mobile.

i performed the following on my M8:

1) unlock Bootloader

2) Recover is flashed with TWRP

3) rooted the device

now i want to apply the new OTA so i flashed the device with the Rogers stock recovery as my CID is ROGER001, downloaded the OTA using my phone WiFi and the file name is OTA_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_Rogers_WWE_4.20.631.2-3.34.631.4_release_41994893s8m7752dj4px5o.

when i press install, the phone start to install the OTA but it stucks after 1 min and the icon to RED TRiANLGE :( and doesn't open,

i had to press POWER/VOLUP/VOLDOWN together to calibrate the battery and open my phone.
