Hello

How to install the new version without losing data?

I'm S-OFF
[One (M8) General] kalim_714:
Mine is on 3.28.401.9. But it shows"no updates available".
[One (M8) General] DeeZZ_NuuZZ:
DUDE didn't you read the last few pages? it is for now only for DEV edition not WWE...WWE comes a bit later...
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
how much longer do you think it will take for the eu version?
[One (M8) General] The Great Dane:
In 15 min. Come on man only future will tell[emoji12]
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
i had to ask for it :P

btw, on lollipop in dev/gpe version, does fb messenger lag like crazy?
[One (M8) General] The Great Dane:
All fine at my end. You could try to clear data inside settings/apps
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
i did. when i chat using fb messenger, keyboard typing stutters and freezes often

this happens ONLY with fb messenger

idk if its because i type fast

this does not happen in kitkat

maybe its a problem with messenger not being optimized for lollipop?
[One (M8) General] seadersn:
fb app and its messenger app is crap on android, and so is whatsapp, since they bought it (delivery delays of more than one day e.g.). but that's only partially L related, for fb/messenger it's ART related, happens on kk with ART enabled, too.
[One (M8) General] uoY_redruM:
C'mon T-Mobile update!
[One (M8) General] icyrainz:
My Venom rom usually reports 1.8gb/2.0. I always worry that this amount of ram of the m8 is not really future proof for a flagship phone. Is it smoother on Lollipop for the new update ? (I'm still on Venom Kit kat rom)
[One (M8) General] SpiritStealer:
Well i tried to update my phone which is unlocked, so i downloaded the 1.4 GB file which is named:

"RUU_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_4.16.1540.8_Radio_1.24.21331147A1.09G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_411207_signed_2"

and when I tried to install the update I Faced error number 130 " ERROR [130]: MODEL ID ERROR " after some searching I found that I should match the CID number along with some other stuff, but for me i didn't find the files to match the numbers with. so if u can help me find the right update i'd really be thank full.

[One (M8) General] Electronic Punk:
Did they ever figure out a way of opening these protected archives?

(they flash to phones fine but try and open them on a PC and you see missing files, or errors)
[One (M8) General] seadersn:
nope, you need htc's security key for that, maybe an special application too.

[One (M8) General] Neynge:

[One (M8) General] Electronic Punk:
I know he handles returning to stock via nandroid, but I can't see any tools for decoding stock roms from him.
[One (M8) General] clsA:
To be honest I have never asked him what tools he uses or where he gets the key's, but you'll notice all the decrypted RUU I have posted are all done by him. If I'm not mistaken it's all done in linux (I could be wrong)
[One (M8) General] seadersn:
a possible way to at least get the images could be to pull the images directly from phone after flashing the zip and do a selfmade zip.
[One (M8) General] migascalp:
It exists. HTC RUU decryption utility. But need to updated for M8.
[One (M8) General] clsA:
Well yeah the stock Rom or Guru Reset is nice to have but really not needed when you have both a RUU.exe and RUU.zip (Even if it is encrypted) and a Nandroid. Most coming to Lollisense are gonna want to be on a clean install anyway. I'm sure their will be plenty of Stock rom's available real soon.
[One (M8) General] nkk71:
not my tools, i just use ruuveal (well except the 3.28.401.6 ruu, which seems funky), the 1.12.401.17 decrypted just fine, the 3.28.401.6 had a weird-ish encryption. (don't think it's an htc signed one to be honest)

anything you need help with?
[One (M8) General] clsA:
Yeah the new DE Lollipop RUU for the M8

Rom.zip here >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95897840722644131

A Decrypted version is always a welcome addition :)
[One (M8) General] nkk71:
downloading.... should be done shortly (the download, i mean... a few hours at most :p :crying: )
[One (M8) General] clsA:
Excellent :good:, a link from your AFH account would be perfect. and remember the linux.zip is preferred ;)
[One (M8) General] SpiritStealer:
Guys which version is this ? is it the same one that's uploaded on hTC Site ?! "RUU_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_4.16.1540.8_Radio_1.24.21331147A1.09G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_411207_signed_2"

or is it another one ? and if not who can flash it ?
[One (M8) General] clsA:
It's the rom.zip pulled from the RUU ... it's needed by those who can't use an EXE file like on linux or MAC

Or just for those who prefer to flash their RUU in fastboot

nkk71 is decrypting it so it can be flashed by anyone with s-off by simply altering the android_info.txt to match their phone (not recommended but possible)
[One (M8) General] SpiritStealer:
oh, gr8... is that okay with all m8s or r there any thing to concider ?

Yup, M8x is an Asian build, most probably HTC__621, same as mine. No updates for me as well. Most probably Feb 1?

Yeah read back 2 pages [emoji6]
[One (M8) General] mohsinraza:
That depends. HTC has released update only for Dev version. The next wave of update is gonna come early next week, IMO. If it's for Asia .709 will be the first one to get it and we'll get lollipop straight away. If it's for EU then yes, it'd take a week at least, may be more.

Use TWRP 2.8.4.0 and it will root just fine, At least mine did.

Nice, thanks for testing :good: :good:

it's a secret :D :p

./ruuveal -K <keyfile.bin> EncryptedRUU.zip decrypted.zip

the newer RUUs will be decrypted into 7 zip files

01_decrypted.zip through 07_decrypted.zip (EDIT: you should check the integrity of those zips to make sure the decryption was correct)

the 02 through 06 will contain system1.img through system5.img which you need to concatenate to form system.img, then you just copy all the files into one folder and compress it

oh, and if you don't have the keyfile, you can get it using

./bruutveal corrrect_hboot.img EncryptedRUU.zip keyfile.bin

My apologies, but is this how you extend your personal invitation to xda, senior member :confused:
[One (M8) General] dany xe:
Well my friend we've all started as noobs one day :p anyway, to b brief each region has an identification number, wich we call cid, when htc begins to roll out an update, it does it on stages, starting with the dev edition one m8, than to the other unlocked m8's then to the branded ones, but not all unlocked phones have the same cid, and each cid gets it's ota (over the air) update at a certain point, they don't get it all together the same day, that's why u'll have to wait before enjoying lollipop on ur devices, if u wanna know wich cid u got, do a google search, i think there's some apps that can tell you, or there's the common way, u should have on ur pc a folder with fastboot and adb files, reboot ur phone to the bootloader, chose fastboot, connect ur phone to the pc with the usb cable, open a command prompt in the folder (using shift + right click - open command window here) type

fastboot getvar cid

Hit enter and voila, it will show up

P.S. i found the app:

I am currently on arhd 7.0 I have a nandroid backup of my stock but it has phills cwm recovery when I tried it found update and downloaded but when it tried to update it went to custom recovery and failed so in theory of I can install stock recovery as well and my nandroid back up I should be ready to go

What is the process for installing stock recovery can it be done from device only
[One (M8) General] EddyOS:
How to flash the stock recovery without a PC, you mean? I don't think you can. I've always just flash it the same way as you do a custom one - fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Nandroid, flash the firmware package and (maybe) relock the bootloader and you're good to go (although you're on ARHD 7 which is based on the new build so you could just flash the new FW package if you have an unbranded handset already)
[One (M8) General] neilmcd:
Yeah, you need the stock ROM to install an OTA. Mine is stock, bootloader unlocked, rooted and S-On. All I did was flash the stock recovery from here with 'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img' and it installed fine. Had to flash a custom recovery and re-root afterwards though.

Mine is a unbranded international m8 so how would I go around flashing the new firmware and radio while still on arhd sorry to be a pain I just want to get this right it's been a long time since I have had a HTC my last one was a hd2

Is there immersive mode on lock screen in the new update?
[One (M8) General] zolika1:
what will happen here yesterday LlabTooFeR for M8 released a new rom with Android 5.0.1 for Android 5.0.2 M7 so that the expected official update soon I hope?
[One (M8) General] Leon:
Should be soon :D but we already know that...
[One (M8) General] nkk71:
could you check if your version has:

"Htc@egi$" at offset 0x200 then followed by the version number a few bytes later

all the HTC singed/encrypted ones have that identifier, whereas the 3.28.401.6 and 3.28.401.9 don't have that identifier and look packaged completely differently.
