Hey O.M.J, I have an HK m8 and I really only bought it because it was $320 off from a Sprint sale. Anyways I'm not really a fan of the finish so I bought the gunmetal housing for it.

Please Help

Guys I need some serious help. I have been trying to update for over 13 hours now!!!

Ok so I am s-off thanks to sunshine with the faux bootloader which states official software.

I did accidently relock my bootloader so it says relocked.

I tried to unlock my bootloader again and it states command error

when I try to flash stock recovery or a different bootloader I get wrong id errors.

Tried usin RUU and got error 130 which is also an id error.

I am stuck can't flash firmware either in fastboot because I get wrong id errors all over the place.

I am spcs_004. Tried changing phone status to developer edition and that worked but changed it back recently to try and fix the mess I am in.

Can someone please help?? Don't know what else to try?

I also tried unlocking using adb codes and those did not work either. PLEASE HELP I cant update firmware or radios because my id is screwed up.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] OMJ:
you'll want to flash a 651 ROM also

the RUU you tried, was it the HK? I would work on getting the RUU to flash & start fresh
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] kirschdog1:
Help

I tried both the RUU's you posted here and the last RUU I used and they all give me error 130 unknown model errors.

I feel its because of the faux bootloader or the fact that the bootloader shows relocked and I have no way to unlock it now as fastboot codes and adb codes don't work.

Any other ideas OMJ?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Captain_Throwback:
Please paste the output of "fastboot getvar all" (this should still work as long as you have a good USB connection). Be sure to mask any sensitive data like SN & IMEI, and also use tags to hide/format your data, like this:

put the output here

If you changed your modelid somehow, that would explain your error.

Hey guys, hope all is well with everyone. My question(s) is this... I'm on 4.4.3 stock rooted and S-OFF... I was wondering, can I just RUU 4.20 or do I need to go in order(4.4.4 first)? If I can just RUU and be caught up, is the only advantage of the file posted in post 1737 is being able to bootload flash? Is one method preferred over the other? :confused:

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] AarSyl:
I'm sure that this was asked (I'm playing the lazy game today, I admit), but I tried to flash the firmware while S-On with both a locked and unlocked bladder, but nothing works. Must I be S-Off to flash?

And if so, why is there a notice that S-On users must use the unmodified firmware? Thanks to whomever responds. And you can blast me for not reading prior. I can take it.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] themuffinman:
Yeah, you probably should have flashed the rom first then flash the firmware, doing it the other way around can cause problems. Anyway, holding the power button and the volume up button should work, maybe you didn't hold it down long enough. I just had a friend that did the same thing and we got it back to the bootloader screen just fine, went in to recovery and just sideloaded the rom.

It's hold power + volume up for 10 seconds, actually.

I don't remember exactly, but I know that it was the same error message for both "S states."

He's right. Holding the power button alone has changed since the previous HTC devices, and for good reason, too. I can't tell you how many times that I restarted my Evos while they were in my pocket.

TWRP

Can I attach TWRP to the modified firmware and rename it Recovery_secure.img and it install the latest TWRP on my phone? I'm s-off and want to upgrade everything while I'm at it. Going to install the latest viper as well, but I'm good on that front. Just needed to know if I could attach the recovery or if I'm better off going another install route. FYI the installer program from play store doesn't work for me. I've always had to install via hboot for other versions.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Robbie_G:
When editing the quick settings icons, I noticed that "Fingerprint Scan" was an option, but it does not seem to do anything. Is it possible the new HK edition may in fact have different hardware and include a fingerprint scanner? I do not remember seeing this as an option in the stock ROM.
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] Ph33zy:
No. The code is there since the One Max will eventually get Sense 6. They are trying to use the same files across multiple devices.

For example, if you poke around some apks, you will see that HTC includes codes for VZ, ATT, and TMobile. That doesn't mean that our phones will be compatible with those networks.

[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
Might not have anything to do with Microsoft c++ installed.

You could try this.

http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...-side-by/7673bf12-87c2-48ca-b5ae-b8aa85e295dc

One other thing you could try if that does not help is TEMPERARILY (i.e. save the original path statement) and strip your system Path down to minimal.

A bogus install might have added a DLL to the system PATH that didn't know how to install/distribute correctly.

I am running the BB-HK Rom and I am running the modified .13 firmware. Should I flash the regular .13 instead of the modified? And if I do flash the full firmware do I need to reflash another custom recovery?

What will the difference be with the full unmodified firmware? I flash via hboot btw.

I also never changed the cid because I thought doing it this way in hboot I didn't need to. I've had no issues so I'm assuming that's all correct.

Hi there,

After messing with a few customs roms on my device, i decided to flash an RUU to start over, as I could get the sim-unlock to work.

However, i didnt relock the bootloader before beginning the process, and now the RUU is stuck at 68%, stating "(1/7) Updating system....".

How should i proceed to avoid bricking it???

Can I just disconnect the USB cable and start over? Will this kill the device?

Hello. Ok so I have 2 Sprint M8's...one HK and one non-HK...both were rooted and s-off running Bad Boy Roms...however I not too long ago on my HK M8 I accidentally accepted & installed an OTA update, not the Lollipop one, but the one before it....and now I no longer have root. I still have my non-HK with full root and s-off but it hasn't been connected to my account for awhile, therefor I haven't updated it in quite awhile. I am wanting to flash either the stock rooted Lollipop ROM or the Bad Boys Lollipop ROM. The phone is running Twrp 2.7.1.0 or 2.8.4.0 (cant tell for sure...according to twrp manager app, I have 2.7.1.0 installed currently but when I boot into recovery, it says 2.8.4.0) and its running an older Bad Boys Rom - v1.5 Art. Can I just flash from v1.5 to either stock rooted or Bad Boys Lollipop?? Or will I have to do something before I can flash one of those 2?

Update: Disregard everything I wrote above....I updated my firmware to 4.20.65x.10_modified_firmware_no_boot.zip first, and then flashed Bad_Boyz_Sprint_ONE_M8_Lollipop_v3.0.zip and my phone is rebooting now :)

Second question, I just go back through htcdev to unlock and flash twrp to gain root again right?
[Sprint HTC One (M8)] mswlogo:
Yes it will run on 8.1 x64

You probably need to install Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime 2008 or 2010. If you look in the Event Log under Application it will tell you which version is missing.

Google for it and download it from Microsoft.

This is a bug HTC's RUU's not to detect and install the pre-requisites. Some PC's already have them from other apps that installed it and it runs fine.

This is most likely what you need.

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555

I think the RUU needs x86 even if your computer is x64.
