Hi, I converted to a GPE edition. Mine's AT&T model. I have the Google CID and the stock gpe recovery. But I went to manually apply the update through the recovery and got this error " Package expects build fingerprint of htc/m8_google/htc_m8:4.4.4/KTU84P.H/35649:user/release-keys or htc_m8: 5.0.1/LRX22C.H5/434277:user/release-keys; this device has htc/m8_google/htc_m8:4.4.2/KOT49H.H16/326432:user/release keys. Installation aborted." When I converted I used this thread and at the time it was a 4.4.4 RUU. So idk what I should do at this point. If anybody could help it would be appreciated.

Hi,

Thank you for the guide and the link to the downloads.

I've been attempting this for the last few hours but with no joy. I keep receiving the following error when trying method 2:

[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
I'm looking into this now. I see something very similar on mine. I don't have zero but close to it. I just flashed back the 4.4.4 RUU and am taking the OTA. I will do a DF after the ota and see the size.

EDIT: ok coming from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1 taking the OTA my system partition only has 7.5MB free so it appears they made it smaller :-/ I don't think they want us messing with the system partition anymore..

[MENTION=4021385]Heisenberg420[/MENTION] ok coming from 4.4.4 to 5.0.1 taking the OTA my system partition only has 7.5MB free so it appears they made it smaller :-/

If there had been more free space I would have thought it was a problem with the image.. but it appears that's the way it is. On my rooted version I think I have 5MB left but I had added an apk to priv-app (which never showed up in my app drawer) I don't think they want us messing with the system partition anymore.. I'm going to run the rooted RUU again and see how much I have so check back to this post and I'll update it
[One (M8) Android Development] Heisenberg420:
Ah I see that's unfortunate. Thx for confirming

What's the best solution to install more system apps? Are some gapps like g+ and drive OK to uninstall to free up space?

I noticed after flashing firmware from Sky Dragon thread the top of my Hboot says *** Software status: Official ***, it was not there on Kitkat firmware, and I Ruu'd this Lollipop RUU to switch from Sky Dragon to official and it still stays there, is it simply a new indication/feature in the latest bootloader/hboot?
[One (M8) Android Development] svassh:
I know no questions hopefully this simple one is ok.

Do I need to flash the new firmware first or will the full RUU take care of that?
[One (M8) Android Development] graffixnyc:
Yeah they are safe to delete however the next OTA will fail if they are not there.

[One (M8) Android Development] erichung_13:
Hey everyone this may be a silly question but

So far I have s-off and changed my cid to GOOGL001

If it flash this RUU now to complete the conversion, will it change my radio to GPE as well?

Is it better to have GPE radio or WWE?

thanks in advance :)

EDIT: also is it better to have the stock GPE recovery or will the sense one work just fine? and will I still get the official OTA updates if I install the rooted version?

Sorry for all the questions just want to clarify it all in one go. Cheers
[One (M8) Android Development] iJekyll:
If you flash this RUU, of course it will change the radio as well.

I think the whole radio thing is kinda depends on your version of the phone and where you live. For me, as a European device, the radio of this RUU works great for me.

Worst case scenario, if you don't get signal after your flash this RUU, you can always grab the radio.img from the Sense firmware and flash only that.

About the recovery - You don't have any good reason to flash the sense recovery after you flash this RUU. In order to get OTA and install them, you need the stock GPE recovery. The sense one won't help you.

And yes, you suppose to get OTA updates if you choose the install the rooted version. (Just make sure you don't flash other recovery so you could install those OTAs).

[MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] or anyone else that can shed some light on this matter.

I just converted my device to GPE(First time converted to GPE) but I can't seem to get the latest Lollipop OTA? When I go to check manually it just tells me that my system is up to date and that's it.

Did I do something wrong along the way that I'm not aware off? I did change the CID/MID to Google's before I even did the RUU .zip flashing in RUUmode(Method 2 in other words).

Is it region specific as well? I'm in South Africa....

Or perhaps the problem I'm having is the same I had when I converted to developer Edition from the International version. Before I could do any OTA's I had to manually update the firmware + OTA FIRST before even receiving an OTA update notification in the system. If that's the case...I looked at [MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION]'s site and the oldest RUU I see there is the one I downloaded in the first place(Build: 4.4.4 - 2.12.1700.1 Stock non-rooted). How can I roll back one more version to manually update to 2.12.1700.1 and check to see if I hopefully get the lollipop update?
[One (M8) Android Development] nageshmodhvadia@gmail.com:
Tried that, had an error when enabling & downloading host files on this version. System partition too small.

Hi.

Did the conversion to 4.4.4 earlier tody, and got a message about the 5.0.1 update, but i forgot to do something on the sense room, so i restored it and did a backup etc. And then when i converted back to 4.4.4 again, i dont get the 5.0.1 update. Any idea?

Edit: Dont know what was wrong, but after the 3. reinstall it came to my phone :)

And yes, i checked my cid and mid every time i installed the 4.4.4 RUU.

[MENTION=3537886]graffixnyc[/MENTION] I found a link to your dev-host which has the RUU for the 1.16.1700 busy downloading it now, is that one still good to go? I tried doing conversion again, Tried with both methods again, still I can't seem to get an OTA update notification for my device. I take it I can just flash it like I just did(Either method should be fine). Afterwards I can download the OTA for the 2.12.1700 and do it manually along with a manual flash of the firmware and hopefully get the OTA for lollipop(As this is how it worked after I converted to Dev Edition).

Hopefully the RUU you have at that link is still all in order, like I said I couldn't find earlier versions for it on your site.

I can't really help you but I'm in the same positioning as you and as other people as well. Everything is correct on my side including the CID/MID. I flashed the 4.4.3 and got the update for 4.4.4 instantly. I live in Canada and I still not getting the OTA for 5.0.1. The best you can do is just wait it out for a few days and see if you get the update... (Which I'm going to do) If not just flash it manually.

[One (M8) Android Development] CoLiran:
Actually I think it does has to do with the RUU (not specifically with the flashing part though) as in this rom Waze won't start, but after I flashed SkyDragon 4.2.0 on top of it (meaning after the GPe conversion with this RUU), Waze running flawlessly, so I guessed it's something to do with the RUU :(

But I'll ask in the Q&A anyway.

OTA Updates after fresh RUU

Hoping someone may have seen this issue. I converted from a TMobile version of the M8 to GPE using 4.4.3 a few months ago. I changed my CID to GOOGL001, and tried to take the 5.0.1 OTA, but am getting an error due to release key issues. I wiped my device and went through the RUU process again with 4.4.3, 4.4.4, and 5.0.1...I continually can get the OTA issues with release keys. The challenge with this is there is no way to update my device, even manually flashing updates in CWM or TWRP. Looking at the release key's in the "About" section of settings, my release keys are KTU84P...

My goal is to have a device that can take an OTA. So, this is where I am at....

1) Wiped device

2) Went through graffixnyc's install process using 4.4.4

3) Attempt to flash 5.0.1 OTA (md5 checks out)

3a) this is the error I get (inside of Philz CWM):
