I have Sprint HTC One M8 Hardmon/Kardon edition.

When I try to flash the full firmware (I'm S-on) it gives me the "FAILED (remote: 99 unknown fail)" error.

Using the liquid rom since nothing else was working for me and I needed an OS. :L

Here is logs of what cmd shows since I can't post outside links to the image:

Don't worry, I'm an expert with Android. I am the one that loves to purposely break things! Thanks for the info!! :)

Make sure your firmware version matches the software version of the rom.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Relock your bootloader using the command fastboot oem lock. Download the latest RUU for your device from the first post in this thread, and follow the instructions posted on how to install the RUU. Your Hboot & firmware are outdated.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draymond1987:
Can somebody PLEASE post a ROM.ZIP for me? I cannot RUU because I'm on Linux. I tried using Wine and that doesn't help. I tried using OpenRUU and that's not working. It copies the ROM.ZIP but it's corrupt.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
Which one? H/K or non H/K?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draymond1987:
Non, please. I have tried just a firmware flash, but I wanna flash a whole RUU, to correct some issues. Plus, I wanna be stockish. Thank you!!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
They are both uploading to http://softronix.com/misc/

The H/K is already up and the Non H/K is uploading now. You'll know when it's done when you see it's around 1.6GB

I suspect they are probably already uploaded somewhere, but I couldn't find it any where.

Note that these are still Encrypted (you cannot unzip or browse them). I believe they can be flash while encrypted. There are tools out there for decrypting as well which is how developers get their initial ROMs.

I believe it can be flashed the same way as described for firmware only. But I've never done it.

Tons of information on extracting (which does require Windows), decrypting and flashing the extract ROM.zip. But the decrypting might normally be done on unix. Google for it.

Non H/K is 1.57 GB (1,691,924,918 bytes)

H/K is 1.58 GB (1,702,294,264 bytes)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draymond1987:
You're freaking amazing!! Thanks so much!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
No problem.

I had to restart the Non HK one again.

I think the file names are too long and it keeps thinking the file is already there and aborts halfway through.

So I moved it to sub folders.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] imLIT_:

I guess my firmware and HBOOT are outdated but I was told to run this and it's stuck :/ what's up ?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
The Non HK refuses to upload. I even removed the HK one in case I hit some quota limit.

So I put it my dropbox.

Are you S-Off (not required though)

Does your SuperCID match the RUU you tried to Run? Did you ever change it?

Did you Relock Bootloader?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Arcurus:
Don't have the money for S-Off, not sure how to check superCID, and I did relock the bootloader.

Here's what it says now:

HBOOT-3.19.0.0000

RADIO-1.08.20.0610

When I attempt to update firmware to the one in this thread the FUU says it can't update my firmware but it shows the update to the current OS or firmware I have so I feel like I'm up to date - but I still have no wifi with lollipop.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
CID is in Bootloader Screen it will say CID-SPCS_004 for Harmon for example. And I would HAVE to download the Harmon RUU if I had that for CID.

I think the non Harmon is CID-SPCS_001 and for that I'd have to download the Non Harmon RUU.

Are you trying to run the RUU or the FUU? I have no experience with FUU but I assume the requirements and procedure are the same as RUU.

If you have that all correct, I'd suspect your computer. HTC Drivers out of date, USB ports (stay away from USB 3.0 ports, don't plug into a Hub), HTC Sync Running, Anti Virsus etc.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
You have the most recent Hboot but your firmware isn't up to date. You should have radio version 1.08.20.0916 :confused:
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] benny3:
Being you are s-on you aren't supercid. Your best bet is to use a RUU and not use the firmware. S-on people been having a hard time with trying just the firmware.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] walterado:
Thank You

I Installed the RUU by Re-locking the bootloader and it installed fine and everything is working fine. Sim is still unlocked. Recovery is gone but that is expected.

Thank you.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draymond1987:
Thank you for all your help man! I couldn't flash in RUU mode, but when I changed the zip name to 0P6BIMG.zip , it flashed,well is flashing now, via HBOOT. Yay!!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Arcurus:
No idea what happened me and my friend messed it up installing stuff left and right, but I managed to run the RUU successfully after flamethrowing my whole phone. Thanks for all your help and sorry for all the nooby questions.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
No worries, glad you got it fixed.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
I successfully uploaded the H/K one yesterday but had trouble getting the non H/K one up so I removed it. I never could get the non H/K to upload and used Dropbox.

I'm putting the H/K back up now. Since I don't know why the non H/K failed I'm not sure what will happen.

Don't attempt to download it unless it shows around 1.6GB. It still shows another 30min to upload.

If it fails I'll use Dropbox and send you a PM.

EDIT: It just failed I guess I was lucky the first time. I'm sending you a PM with Dropbox link.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] reinaldistic:
Where do I find the 3.31 roms? Or did ota not mess with the Rom?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
I finally got both RUU ROM.ZIPs uploaded to a location I don't mind sharing. I don't want my DropBox closed due to excessive bandwidth which is why I used PM links.

http://softronix.com/misc/

I'd appreciate if someone would confirm that these indeed do flash just like a firmware only would. They ARE still factory encrypted !!!

I figured out why I saw duplicate files on earlier attempts at uploading. My timeout on FTP was a bit low and the connection was slow. So it would disconnect and reconnect. And try to overwrite a partial "duplicate" filename. I uploaded from home instead of work and they uploaded 3x faster with no issue.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] thanosart:
I'd appreciate if someone would confirm that these indeed do flash just like a firmware only would. They ARE still factory encrypted !!!

Not sure what happened, but I got a failed message on the image file when I flash from the boot loader. Renamed the non hk file 0P6BIMG.zip. Stuck on the white HTC screen. Does the factory encrypted ruu need to be decrypted in order to flash properly?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
I don't know. I'm sure OMJ or Benny knows. If you google around I saw threads on prior HTC phones that extracted it like I did and fastboot flashed the encrypted ROM.ZIP FROM the PC.

See this thread on HTC One (M7 I assume) which states to use the encrypted ZIP (but again this if from the PC still) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2251800

But I'm not sure if you do it direct from phone if it can stay encrypted or not.

Maybe there is a reason OMJ didn't post the encrypted ZIP's because things are different on the M8.

Reading the link above I just gave, it might take a couple passes (flashes) depending on your state. I suspect if it updates hboot, you may have to reboot and flash again. But I'd wait a GOOD while before aborting, just in case.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
The zips need to remain encrypted to flash properly.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] thanosart:
Thanks for the info. I did search and read that hboot decrypts the ruu when it runs. I downloaded the 2.12 ruu 0P6BIMG and ran that through hboot and updated firmware afterward. Up and running?

Kinda sucks not having a working computer at home, but will be getting another one with my tax return.

Thanks again.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
So did you end up using the zips I posted? It's not clear from your reply.

I don't want to steer people wrong if the files I posted are not useful to anyone.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] thanosart:
I did use the use the one you posted , but after getting the image fail message I used the 2.12 ruu that OMJ has in the previous ruu section. Only because I needed to use my phone this morning for work. And I knew it would work.

I might try double flashing the one you posted when I get some extra time this weekend, if it's advised that it'll work.

Hey, I've been having some problems with my network lately (prl and profile) won't update. I've done some googling and from what I've found, I need to install a factory ROM and perform a Factory reset.

So my plan is to use this ROM here and I wanted to know if this is something iI can do from my phone or do iI have to have a computer?

Sorry guys if I sound like a newb but I am. Any help is would be appreciated so much.

My phone is the HK model and I do have s-off via Sunshine method and I also have an external sd card.

This is a Rom Update Utility, it encases a stock ROM, stock firmware, and stock recovery among a few other things, this is usually used to fix problems that clean flashing a Rom wouldnt do. If you want to use this, use a computer.

Follow the same directions as flashing firmware from the phone to flash them. The directions are in opening post.

being so close to Lollipop, we had no plans to build 3.31 stock rooted ROMs....I think for the most part, 3.31 fixes the ItsOn battery drain, which we removed in our BB ROM. I posted a flashable zip to manually remove ItsOn, if you want. Also, to disable to update notification, just long press the notification, go into info, then disable

You can enable HK and disable boomsound in the ACC/default.xml if you have a HK phone or firmware. You could also swap it out with the one from BB rom
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] welshwarriorsf:
When someone attempts to update their firmware to the latest, currently: "3.31.651.2" for Sprint NON-HK users I believe, is this what their hboot should change to? I have S-Off'ed and have changed my CID to: 11111111, but my hboot remains at 3.19... after trying a few times to update my firmware and my wifi is borked on the latest bad boys (I know you need the latest firmware for this to work which is what I'm trying to do) and I couldn't send texts on the Jan.18th CM nightly but my wifi worked pretty well except for very large downloads.

So basically to sum it all up, what is the hboot version (and if possible the radio version) associated with firmware update: "3.31.65x.2"?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Hboot 3.19. Hit the second link in my sig. I have all the software & firmware versions broken down by Hboot version for both the regular Sprint M8 and HK M8.

What is your current firmware (radio) version? Keep in mind that software and firmware are two different things, and the only way to get both updated at the same time is with a OTA update or RUU. Flashing a ROM won't change your firmware version. Likewise, flashing firmware won't change your software version.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] welshwarriorsf:
My radio version is: 1.08.20.0612_4

Is that what it should be? I tried the ViperOne rom which I'm on right now and still a no-go on the wifi although everything else looks good. I couldn't get music to play on Bad Boyz but I think that was probaly because I didn't flash the adsp firmware, but music is working on ViperOne though so that's good. Still no wifi though, I hope I didn't flash the wrong firmware and mess it up. I know software is differnt than firmware btw I just thought originally that my hboot should change to 3.31... but apparently 3.19 is current.

edit: I'm now thinking that ViperOne and Bad Boyz are meant for 3.30 firmware and I'm now on 3.31 firmware and that's why it's (wifi) not working and I should have probaly held off on updating to this version of the firmware. With that in mind I'm now downloading the 3.31 rom in the 4th post and I'm gonna give that a try. :)
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
The latest radio is 1.08.20.0916. That's why your WiFi is jacked up. Are you S-off or S-on?

Also, your Hboot version is a totally different number from that of your software or firmware versions.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] welshwarriorsf:
Wow that's not good. I'm S-Off. Any ideas?

Btw as you likely guessed, the stock 3.31 rom did NOT help the wifi situation.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Use the modified firmware from the 3.30.65x.2 update. The 3.31.65x.2 firmware didn't include a radio update.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] welshwarriorsf:
That did the trick! Thank you so much!! All the contributers to and in, this thread, are AMAZING!! :) :highfive:

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
It might be Sprint, I have heard a few members says they are having data issues but they disappear after a few days.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draight:
I followed the steps from:

Flash Firmware via fastboot, no ext sd card needed....

with a few of the firmwares. They went though and I thought everything was going well but when I entered the fastboot command to reboot, it restarted to the white logo screen and stayed there. The music plays like its booting but the screen doesn't change. the phone screen even gives feedback when touched but the screen doesn't change. I VOL UP + POWER to force reboot and vol DOWN + power to force bootloader and now im stumped. I've tried all of the firmwares on the top post in this fashion but I never get anything other than the white image.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
Sounds to me like you downgraded your hboot and it does not match the rom you are using.

If you have an older hboot it's my experience the newer roms will not boot correctly.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draight:
I see. Show how would you suggest one fix such a situation? Should I try update the hboot? Is there a way I can just replace both the hboot so it matches the rom?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
At this point I would use the latest RUU...reason being messing with firmware can be dangerous.

Backup anything important to your PC
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draight:
Gotcha. Bummer, I don't have a PC so I'm limited in what I can do at this point I guess. =(
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Sloth:
Are you sure you are flashing the correct firmware?

HK Firmware for HK device and Non HK FW for Non HK device.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draight:
Yeah, i'm sure I was using the right version
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Trident:
I would appreciate a little help. I haven't played with an HTC device in a while.

I followed the steps to unlock my bootloader and flash TWRP and that seemed to go well.

I'm now trying to get the new firmware installed (which is what I assume I need to have in order to flash a custom ROM).

I got the correct firmware and tried installing it using the FUU and then FASTBOOT. Both are failing.

FASTBOOT gives me the following error:

Question #1: Do I really need this or can I use TWRP to flash a ROM?Discovered that I don't need this to flash a ROM.

Question #2: If it is needed, can someone give me a clue as to what I might be doing wrong? I'd still like to know what I'm doing wrong. And what is this used for if I can flash using TWRP?

Thanks.

Please.

I've now tried just about everything I could find.

I can't change my CID to 1111111- it just fails. My CID is stuck at SPCS_001.

I've tried flashing firmware with the RUU/FUU. I've tried with FASTBOOT. All the numbers say I'm on the right one, but every time I try to flash a ROM (I've only tried Android Revolution v22 & 32), it says it completes but will only boot into FASTBOOT or recovery. I'm using the latest TWRP (confirmed). I've wiped the heck out of the entire internal storage and wiped both sd cards I've been using. Fresh everything. At this point, I'd be happy to back to stock, not rooted (I tried using the HTC RUU, but that also failed).

I really don't want to have to take this thing back to Sprint.

Final Update:

So easy I'm embarrassed. I finally went to a different forum and found a thread where the person was asking something very similar. The easy answer was to relock my bootloader and run 3.31. RUU. Bam. Next time I read more thoroughly.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] draight:
Hey just wanted to post a follow up. I'm not sure what the issue is still but I was able to enter recovery and load a rom so its working. I'm just going to leave it at that. thank you for your response though. Cheers
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Bradh024:
Quick question for you guys, I haven't really messed around with updating firmware since the middle of last year, so I can't remember, but I can run the latest ruu w/out going in order but not the OTA correct? And how do I find out what the latest firmware I have on my phone? I've looked in settings and the boot loader and can't seem to figure it out.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
Your firmware version is the same as your baseband, or radio version. You can run the latest RUU without having run the previous ones.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Mathman85:
I hate to ask this, but after mysteriously (i.e. I wasn't even in the process of flashing anything, I was trying to reboot my phone) bricking my One M7, I'm paranoid about causing problems with my girlfriend's M8 (non-HK, S-On) so I want to make sure I know exactly what I need.

She currently has ViperOne 2.5.0 (build number is 2.16.654.4), but I want to put her back to the most recent stock rooted build for stability purposes (all the tweaks she wants can be achieved through Xposed).

Is the "Sprint_HTC_One_M8_non-HK_3.31.651.2_RUU" all I'd need? Will it re-lock the bootloader and replace the recovery, as well? (I have her unlock.bin file, but I'm sure I'll have to seek out the newest TWRP.) Will I need to flash a stock, rooted ROM, or couldn't I just flash superuser from TWRP and go from there?

Thank you very much in advance, from both of us!
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Magnum_Enforcer:
That's the RUU you'll need to use. You'll need to relock the bootloader before running it since you're S-on. The RUU will install the standard Android system recovery so you'll need to reinstall TWRP. Afterwards you can install SuperSU for root privileges.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] benny3:
You could also just flash this stock rooted non HK rom after you unlock and re-install TWRP
