VomerGuides [M8]: Bootldr Unlock, S-OFF, SuperCID, Firmware Upgrade & Custom Recovery

[GUIDE] Return your M8 to 100% Stock

HTC One firmware collection for different CID/MID

Guaranteed method to update from 2.22.401.5 nand to 3.28.401.6 via ota thanks [MENTION=4916603]ahsan64[/MENTION]

Ahsan64 wrote this small guide HERE but was closed as it was a offshoot to this thread, nontheless i will politely take this up in this thread.

Thank you [MENTION=4916603]ahsan64[/MENTION]

NOTE :

This is ONLY for S-ON International(WWE) with base 2.22.401.xx users ....... If you have S-OFF just flash the 3.xx firmware .

I am seeing lots of people want to update their M8 to 3.28.401.x firmware/software but most of the CID's haven't recieved the official update yet so this guide will do that and counts for ALL these WWE CID's

So here is the solution to get OTA if you are S-ON with main version 2.22.401.xx . Although i tried it on 2.22.401.5 but it should work for all 2.22.401.xx .

Download this nand(official CID Y13) from HERE and restore it using TWRP recovery .Then flash the stock recovery from HERE .

Search for the update it should be available , download, install and enjoy the new software/firmware ......

NOTE :

The list of CID's posted below are all compatible with this small guide to 100% succes of updating the phone to 3.28.401.x

Nice idea mate :)

Allow me to be the first then:

stock_1.54.401.5_odexed_2014-04-05

MD5: 3662eefd13d583069ff98fc5c31b95e8

ODEXED

OS 1.54.401.5

HBOOT 3.16.0.0000

CID HTC__001

TWRP 2.7.0.3

Just to clarify, I've zipped the backup for ease of upload. Download the zip file, extract the folder that's inside and place that in your TWRP backup folder on your phone (sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/<device id>/), then boot into recovery and choose that backup from the list.
[One (M8) General] Mr Hofs:
Awesome ! Thanks buddy :)
[One (M8) General] Robotic4:
Thank's for making this thread :) How do we install the firmwares from here?
[One (M8) General] SaHiLzZ:
These are not firmwares. But nandroid backups. You push them to sdcard and restore. ONLY use if they match your cid mid..

[One (M8) General] nintendolinky:
We can't restore stock recovery with these backups though, could you include stock recovery in the OP with an unlocked boot loader it should be easy to pull it off the phone onto the SD Card. Anyone who wants to go to stock with any of these backups and have full OTA update capability will need stock recovery. Also system partition has to be fully untouched, so no root or anything.
[One (M8) General] Mr Hofs:
I know that. As soon as i get them and the time i will provide the links. And as additional information.....you can update with root access and an unlocked bootloader as long as the rom is fully stock.

Don't worry i know what i am talking about here ;)

I just want to start collecting because it will be useful in the future. And the people that want to go back to their own stock rom with or without root can do that easily via this thread. So i hope many people will start uploading them !!!
[One (M8) General] Mr Hofs:

[One (M8) General] pablo11:
Can we still use fastboot boot "revovery name" to make a stock backup? I thought they had locked out this command in the bootloader.....
[One (M8) General] Mr Hofs:
How do you flash the custom recovery now than ?
[One (M8) General] pablo11:
No, I mean before you flash recovery - you used to be able to get a complete backup by booting off the image and then taking a backup.

Might have lost that ability now though.
[One (M8) General] Mr Hofs:
Ah you mean to backup the stock HTC recovery, haven't tested that as i don't have the device yet. But i will when i get it. Also the stock recoveries will be available through firmwares and ota files.

Edit :

From what i have read it's still possible
[One (M8) General] pablo11:
Gonna test it tonight. I'll let you know but I have my doubts..........
[One (M8) General] poczynek:
This is great because I am on arhd custom rom and need to go to stock. So I just restore via TWRP?

[General Questions and Answers] XanoZuke:
Maybe it's accessing Internet for word suggestion? Have you tried disabling it and see if it still tries to connect to the Internet?
[General Questions and Answers] isabelamoisin:
I had played a little with the keyboard from Settings > Language & Input.

I had unchecked all the options that I could find regarding word suggestions, spelling correction, dictionaries and such,

For a moment it had seem that the keyboard has "chilled down" a little bit, but after a reboot, and when configuring the build in email,

when entering the username and password I had another notice and another log from the NoRoot Firewall, with the same message,

"Internet acess detected - Xperia Keyboard 1 pending acces to 173.194.70.139:80 fa-in-f139.1e100.net"

I know that the adress that xperia keyboard is trying to connect, is google.

But I don't wish to send info out on the internet while typing stuff, who is wishing for that?

I don't even have an guarantee that the info which is sending is in an encrypted protocol.

Anyway, I do't wish to send info to Google on what I type on my phone, it is my own personal life and

intellectual property

.

Word suggestion worked pretty good while offline, with no data and no wifi on.

If it is because of some word suggestion feature I hope that Sony will illuminate me with the exact steps on how to stop this keyboard for sending info out in the wild and "phoning home", maybe I skipped some word suggestion setting by mistake or is well hidden.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wlhyatt:
So I royally borked this one.

Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T, I had rooted it a while back and unrooted by deleting the files. My work requires a non-rooted device for the BYOD plan using Airwatch MDM. It did not detect a previous root for months, and then one day it popped up and said "non-compliant" because it had detected the previous root somehow.

I tried factory wiping it, which did not fix it, then I ran the OTA update to 4.2.2 which is when things started to go south. After it booted normally and optimized all the apps, Airwatch was detecting a root still.

I figured I had to install a stock rom that overwrites everything. In the past on my old Captivate that was not nearly as hard as it is on the GS4.

I have I337UCUFNB1 on there now, and mistakenly used the odin Oneclick for MLD, which overwrote the boot and other things, but then failed when it came to the SW rev check.

I got it to boot by using the stock MK2 kernel, but now it says "failed to mount /system (invalid argument)" like the partitions are jacked.

Flashing the stock FNB1 image fails, after the "start" the download screen shows an error with "bar".

Do I need the .pit file to repartition then rewrite FNB1?

Where can I find the .pit file, if that is the case?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] jmjoyas:
http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51403662&postcount=301

This post has the PIT file for you. The best thing to do would be to somehow getting the stock FNB1 flashed to the phone, that way the bootloader, kernel and system are all of the same version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] wlhyatt:
That helped quite a bit, still not able to load a good fnb1 image but it will at least boot to the SGS4 screen now before it hangs.

I am now into the recovery, so I think if I can get a good system ext4 image I should be rocking and rolling. I think part of my problem is when the all-in-one FNB1 image is loaded it is overwriting my good kernel.

Any other advice?

Hi All,

I've tried various search strings looking for an answer to my issue but found nothing related. Anyone else have an intermittent problem whereby pressing softkey for "Messaging" yields no body or list, only a title bar and softkey menu as normal? When it occurs, I just see the Today Screen where either the message contents or list of messages should be displayed. After some fumbling and clicking around I can usually get the content/list to appear. I only noticed this problem when I first loaded summiter's ROM but now I have the official Cingular ROM loaded and problem still exists.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or solutions.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] freezor:
can you access the messaging if you go through the start menu or do you have the same problem there??

is your soft key mapped right to the messaging link?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] sunsurfh2o:
softkey mapped

Thanks for response, yes, softkey is mapped; as I mentioned earlier, when you launch messaging, I get only the top and bottom elements of the program (Title, New, Menu) but the middle content (message, list of) is missing)--you see only the Today Screen in foreground.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] gilbnx:
It happened to me as well once I started to force 'exit' on all the apps instead of just minimizing them. Part of Pocket Plus close button.

I'm not sure if this is the same case as you are experiencing but it looks like after the Messaging program is completely terminating, the softkey cannot launch the complete program. I was still able to launch it from the start menu with no problems (sounds very strange, I know).

The way I recovered from that is to put the "Messaging" program in the exception list of the close program; this way it stays in memory and I get the messaging complete program every time I press the softkey now.

I *Hope* that helps... :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] sunsurfh2o:
maybe???

interesting thought... well, i don't use that program BUT i am using smartkey and that likely shares the same process SO i will try that from now on after soft-reset and report back...

Thanks for the tip! It's definitely one of those hard to track down the cause kind of issues, how did you come about that as a solution?

Hello all,

I've been looking for a very specific case, with no success, i thought that maybe here I'll get some help.

the case i want is something similar to the TranSleeve Dual.

The main idea that I want to be be able to connect the dock with no issue, and work with the same case with and without the dock.

since i couldn't find anything like this - if someone found something similar or maybe a product that he thinks will be a good alternative, i'm open to suggestions.

Thank you!
[Asus Transformer TF701] mgullick:
I'd like a nice leather case that works well WITHOUT the dock. I don't have the dock and don't want the dock. I have a great Caseen leather case that was for my TF700 but I smashed the screen on that tablet and can't get the part to fix it. The case goes on the new TF701 just fine but the buttons and speaker are in different places which makes it far from ideal. The new version of the Caseen case seems to be designed for use with the dock.
[Asus Transformer TF701] caseenBrandon:
Thanks for the kind words :). Actually our PERFECTO PRO case works with or without the dock. Its been stitched in a way where it stays slim in only-tablet mode. The buttons and speakers have been updated so it should be great for you. New leather as well!

http://www.ebay.com/itm/360-case-fo...D-10-ME302C-Tablet-Stylus-F096X-/321235988340

That kind I find is not too bad. Looks cool. I don't know about this specific one though. Cheap. Hipstreet I think is the brand. Something to look at anyway.
[Asus Transformer TF701] mgullick:
Based on this (and the awesome 50% off Web launch offer) I ordered the Caseen leather case. It's great! It fits perfectly, looks good, is real leather, and the power and volume buttons are now easy to access. It also has a cutout that makes my "home" button easily accessible. The case from my TF700 just wasn't right for this new tablet. The new case is pretty much perfect.
[Asus Transformer TF701] caseenBrandon:
It was a steal at that price! I am glad you like it!

Yeah it was a long time in the making for this TF701T case, but definitely worth it!

[Asus Transformer TF701] YayYouFixedIt:
I think I'm going to go for this one:

http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/prod...spx?path=1960cc62d3410b2fc845d756779cb99den02

I'm only guessing it will fit a tf701t (Not too sure maybe someone knows). I have a hipstreet brand and it has decayed. Looks too be a fair price at under $20.

But it was second hand and different then this one. Does not have those things on the side. Actually it is so decayed it flew out of the case onto the floor and landed flat face down on the wooden floor. It made a loud noise when it landed. I thought for sure it was smoked.

I picked it up and and was partially outside its shell. I just snapped it back in. Not a scratch. I hope it is fine. Seems to be.

As it has just barely passed the sniff test I will have to get a decent case. After this happened I was looking at BobJ Gear but it doesn't look like they have anything suitable.

Edit: Actually I just checked the sticker inside the case. This will likely fit it. Made for the same model. ME301CAS2-BK.

But I'm still looking as well.

Edit: Here's an identical thing with PREMIUM LEATHER instead.

http://www.amazon.ca/Premium-Leathe...8&qid=1417872766&sr=1-10&keywords=me301t+case

Note the different in price and design of the similar tf701 version. One less set of holes for the speaker. I think ill go for extra holes and premium leather.

http://www.amazon.ca/Premium-Leathe...F8&qid=1417872630&sr=8-27&keywords=tf701+case

Edit: I bought the premium leather case me301. Not recommended compared to the hipstreet brand because the design is inferior although it fits tightly and snug to the tf701. The only problem is you have to pop it out to stand it up.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] gtcardwhere:
For the past week I've been having problems with my phone seeming locked in "wcdma preferred" mode despite it being actually set to lte/cdma in Phone Info menu. I'm in San Francisco and my daily commute path is completely blanketed with lte, and I have never had any problems connecting to lte until this past week. Usually as soon as I arrive in SF on the train, my phone immediately connects to and stays connected to lte. But at around the time tmobile rolled out their new plans (March 25ish?), my phone has been connecting to hspa 4g and remains on hspa until I force a lte connection by going into phone info menu (*#*#7696#*#*) and choosing lte only. This is particularly irksome because the 4g signal is only 2-3 bars while the lte signal is a full 5 bars. For whatever reason, my phone is clinging onto the hspa connection and passes my signal from tower to tower without actually passing it up to a lte tower. Once I force a lte connection, my phone will remain on lte and will pass back and forth between lte towers as it did before.

Anyone else notice this happenning recently?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] lampel:
Try setting it to gsm/wcdma/lte auto under settings -> mobile data -> network mode.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] gtcardwhere:
The gsm/cdma/lte auto setting is the default setting the phone shipped with, and changing it back to this didn't solve the problem. I use lte/cdma because I wanted to eliminate edge bands altogether since data is practically unusable when connected to edge, and the phone has an annoying tendency to fall back onto edge prematurely.

During the times affected, the phone seems to be locked onto the "wcdma only" setting, regardless of what was actually being selected.

I called tmo a few times and the issue seems to be resolved now. I'm certain it was an issue on their end, probably some software provisioning problem that came up when the new rates rolled out. For what it's worth I am on the now grandfathered $20 unlimited data plan.
