Not sure if it's permanent, but at the moment, I'm unable to download the GPE RUU from here. Once that's available again, I'll re-download and try everything out.

Edit: Found a copy on my work desktop. I'm flashing the RUU now and I'll get a getvar all in the state it's in once it's complete. Then I'll document the whole process of me getting it back to stock Sense.

This is my getvar all immediately after flashing the non-rooted GPE RUU from here.

Once that custom HBOOT was installed, I just did the following:

I left the phone in fastboot and ran the RUU.exe on my desktop.

At the time of this update, I'm at 5/7 on the RUU update and I see no reason it would fail now.

Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] renn9420:
Yes that is what I did. Used the TWRP back by restoring it. Booted up my phone. Did not root it. Flashed stock 1.12 recovery. That left me unlocked and s-Off only. Installed OTA and waited for home screen. Then flashed TWRP recovery. Rebooted to recovery and rooted when TWRP asked if I wanted to install Super User

Totes forgot these steps for flashing the HBOOT:

fastboot erase cache

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip hboot_firewater_<XXXYYYZZZ>.zip

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Which is the reason why it wasnt working for me originally. My apologies for the lack of attention. Disregard my private message too.. Im a mess..lol

Ill let you know how this unfolds. :) thanks for your time!!

EDIT: I cant get passed the agreement part. After I agree to the terms and click next, the exe just shuts down. I unblocked the file as recommened and also ran as administrator.

I'm on windows 7 64bit. Could that be the culprit?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] dave.michael:
I think you've found the problem! And no bother at all. Happy to help. I think it should work out for you now.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Jhoopes517:
I have been having the same issue. I can't seem to find a way to do it and I've re-downloaded and un-blocked the software many times.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Tidbits:
has to be something else.

I used Windows 8.1 Pro and it worked out fine. Do you have some type of virus protection like Norton or similar?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Jhoopes517:
If anything, Just windows firewall. I don't care for virus protection. I'm more of a "Oh.. It's running slow? Okay.. Wipe and start fresh" kind of guy.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] dave.michael:
I also ran it without issue on the latest version of 8.1 x64 (at the time of writing this, of course) and three things come to mind if you don't have any 3rd party software inhibiting it from running.

Make sure Windows Firewall isn't blocking the application

Check your UAC settings

It may simply be best to run this as a local administrator. I noticed each time I run the RUU, it creates a log file on the system root and it may simply be an issue of it not being able to write to that location that it's failing. Check your root for a directory called ruu_log. If it doesn't exist, that may be the problem. Just a guess.

As a matter of fact, open up that ruu_log directory (if you do have it) and open the most recent log entry in it. Scroll to nearly the bottom and it may tell you what exactly is going wrong for you. I'm guessing the message will start with the word "error" or "failed" but I could be wrong. Feel free to post the log too. I enjoy guess work. :) Just check through it thoroughly and ensure it contains no information you don't want made pubic such as your IMEI or your device serial etc.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] sojizy:
is there any way you can post the ruu file generated from the ruu.exe program?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Behold_this:
What do you want to do with it? Its encrypted and split into seven parts.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] sojizy:
I thought I would be able to flash the Rom.zip file that was was being discussed before

"When you run the installer it extracts the rom.zip to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\

Look for a folder that is recently modified and is something cryptic like {FF070330-D71A-4A58-B292-41FB431C7529} - look in the subsequent folders underneath that for Rom.zip

When you've found Rom.zip - copy it out to your desktop or somewhere else that is outside of that folder. Then you can close the RUU.

Now run:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip Rom.zip

**You'll likely want Rom.zip in the same folder as your fastboot executable for ease of running the commands)**"
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Behold_this:
That's why I asked what you wanted to do with it. If that's all you want to do with it just extract it yourself from the RUU, since you know how to. That would probably be quicker than waiting for somebody else to extract it, then upload it, then you downloading it. Just cut out the middleman grab the RUU and extract it.[emoji106]

I was thinking perhaps you wanted to build a ROM with it or some other type of mod. That's why I mentioned that the rom.zip is encrypted and then once you decrypt it its broken into 7 different zips with 5 system.imgs that need to be combined.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] sojizy:
Thanks. I was at work and didn't have a PC. Heading home to try and flash now
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] otariq:

Can anyone give me any insight? I did relock the bootloader before going into ruu to flash the zip
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Garmig:
What about restoring the 1.12.531.19 nandroid backup, or SuperCid before using the rom.zip?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Tidbits:
I got exactly the SAME message. To fix my problem I had to flash the offical firmware first and then run the RUU and install that way. It worked that way for me.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2754063 Official firmware found here.

Changed the CID back to T-MOB010(I believe) and locked the bootloader as well before flashing the RUU. I am S-Off still so that's still nice.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] otariq:
I ended up restoring my backup and flashing stock recovery. Also restored the missing apks then unrooted and flashed ota. Now I'm 100% stock with soff and unlocked bootloader.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Garmig:
Just FYI the RUU posted here in OP is the official too, the first link takes you directly to the htc server and the second one is a mirror in AFH.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Tidbits:
correct, but running the zip wasn't working for me and threw the same error. So I had to flash the official firmware first, and still wouldn't let me flash the rom.zip. So I just ran the RUU.exe(which didn't work either initially) and let it do it's thing and that finally worked.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ClausMontoya:
Will this method work for me? I'm unlocked and rooted on T-Mobile. Here's a quick pick...somehow I tried something with S-on and I was suppose to have S-off. Now I want to start fresh.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ClausMontoya:
I'm not having any luck doing any of this...LOL! I need some serious help or a real "for dummies" tutorial. The only reason I'm trying to return to stock is because sometimes my data is strange. It will work then an app like instagram won't refresh....then I reboot and things are good. So I'm not sure what's up. Help?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] s7ormcrow:
Thanks a bunch.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Garmig:
You can return to stock running the RUU too, just backup your pictures and files to your pc first because the RUU will wipe the internal storage.

Miguel
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ClausMontoya:
Thanks. I've tried that before but it didn't work. Is that because I wasn't S-off? Now I am, so I'll give it another shot and report back.

-Claus
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Garmig:
Give us more info about the error when you try running the RUU and no being S-On was not the problem. My device is S-ON and I was able to update it via RUU without issues.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Behold_this:
As [MENTION=1131176]Garmig[/MENTION] said we definitely need more info from you about your setup, but make sure at the very least your bootloader is relocked as the FINAL step before running the RUU.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ClausMontoya:
Well I've seemed to been able to run the RUU update. Things are working now I just hope my data issue is gone. Thanks guys!

Just tried flashing the latest radio. It goes through and flashes in recovery but when I reboot, radio didn't change.

Read through the last 4 pages. Is S-Off required for radio flash?

Im having same issue as You.did u get it fixed? my data stops working and i have to toggle airplane mode to work again
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] sapplegater:
Any one else having an issue getting the RUU to start? I start the program and i'll get past were it has you accept the terms and agreements and then it just stops and doesn't load. I've tried all the recommendations with virus and the firewall but still nothing.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Garmig:
Try with the rom.zip extracted from the RUU.

In fastboot mode:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

and again after the error

fastboot flash zip rom.zip

and last one

fastboot reboot

rom.zip

If you have issues using your regular adb, use the one below for larger files. Unzip it to your desktop, copy the rom.zip to your new adb folder and open a command prompt.( Open the adb folder, while holding the shift key right click on a blank space and click "open command window here"and start the steps posted above)

adb for larger files

Try this zip from mrjaydee82

[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] dave.michael:
Quick question to those who used the RUU to convert back to stock from a FULL GPE conversion: Have you noticed a difference in network speed? In areas I got 50Mbps with the GPE, I barely get 20Mbps. I noticed this too when I first switched to this device and used it for a bit. I noticed faster downloads after converting to GPE.

Do you guys know if we run the RUU.exe we will be able to receive OTA updates from HTC or T-Mobile?

I still have bootloader unlocked and S-Off after the RUU installation. I thought this would completely set my phone back to factory.

Yes, you should be able to. I'm S-OFF and Bootloader Unlocked and got the OTA no problem.

Things that will break OTAs are missing/changed /system files, non-stock recovery, etc.

My phone ran out of battery on the way home this evening after charging it up i turned it on and the device is just sat on the Motorola 'M' boot screen

i have tried a soft reset (power and lower volume button) but it just comes to the same screen, i have taken out the sim and SD card and it is still doing the same how can i fix this?
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flacid Monkey:
You need to get into the boot menu.

Turn on and hold power and Vol down. Release power when it does the first vibrate but do not let go of the volume button.

Its a bit temperamental until you've done it a few times to get the timing right.

Leave your Sim and sd card in.

If battery is dead the led only shows green when trying to turn on so that seems fine if you can get to boot logo.

It's probably having a hissy fit like windows does on a hard shutdown and needs safe boot to fix
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skupi20:
Nothing to worry m8. Something ****-up with system files maybe :) There is a lot of threads about such bootloop :)

As far you see any logo your phone is fine :) you need enter to fastboot and flash stock firmware with rsd-lite. How enter fastboot you can find on forum.

Going out on a limb and saying no.

It'd have to be at the kernel level where you have a magnetic trigger to input the screen to wake but not if your device is powered off and unable to be powered on to install the kernel.

Hope you find a power button and try to stay away from areas where your tablet can be dropped in water?

Good luck.

yeah, first thing i accomplished successfully tho not without a lot of wiping an rewiping and installing and reinstalling stuff, was unlocking the phone, then i put in the aio and it did it's thing on it's own and connected wonderfully. first time trying to go back to tmob, it started this misconnection issue. it's basically intermittent closer to non operational, tho i did get a random text tonight from a friend i was unable to respond to, because im like kinda connected for a sec, sometimes i'll see the opposing 4g arrows working in the notification area, but not long enough to get info set in the apn settings, you know where i'm talking about. half of those settings work only when you have a signal, for ex. i do the manual part correctly, hit the save apn button ... nothing saves, nothing happens better after that.

i bet you i need to update that radio huh? just tried to flash a newer rom and it said no because my radio was too old. i could have sworn my stock rom, which is supposed to be the latest... which maybe was old right? its in the threads here, first stock you'll find. probably that rom was cool with the uvle1... confusing stuff. okay, til someone answers otherwise i'm just gonna keep trying to update this radio. i guess it is only good now for unlocking...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] juntjoo:
okay, so i just flashed jedi mind trick which updated the radio, but the stock rom didn't. so does that mean that some roms will not touch the radio while others will? and what was wrong with the radio before? was it made to work only for the associated older versions of android?

Hi, basically i use the App "Voxer" for voice messages, but when im hearing a Voice Msg if i accidentally activate the proximity sensor, the app Crashes...

I dont really use the Proximity Sensor for anything (as far as i know) and id like to totally disable it.

I used this method:

Using ES file Explorer

1. Navigate to /system.

2. Click the button at the top that says Mount R/W.

3. Open the file called build.prop.

4. At the bottom of the file add a line that says:

gsm.proximity.enable=false.

5. Hit menu, save and exit, reboot

But it didnt work (i open my build.prop file and the line is there) so im really at a loss, i also tried the app "Proximity Screen Off" and id didnt work either...

Any ideas how i can disable the sensor (in app or totally)

Thanks!
