[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
what was your cid? this was only for developer builds I redid my device twice with it...flashed a complete nand back up and then this ota through stock recovery... did you do the firmware upgrade to 1.54 euro? or any other firmware related flashes?

1 fastboot oem writecid BS_US001

2 fastboot oem readcid

3 fastboot reboot-bootloader

4 fastboot oem rebootRUU

5 fastboot flash zip nameofzip.zip

6 fastboot reboot-bootloader
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
Are you not super cid? When you say hard bricked what is your m8 doing now? Can you get to bootloader. You can't even flash unless you are soff or have true developer edition phone so I would assume you made your phone super cid too?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] guyd:
CID was BS_US002 on a Developer Edition. No firmware upgrades, it was original!!!

I was S-OFF with custom ROM, custom Kernel, and custom Recovery. That's it.

I removed the boot.img and recovery.img out of the zip prior to flashing.

The flash process appeared to work, and nearly all pieces installed successfully.

But after I issued a fastboot reboot, it was dead! No screen, no led, no nothing.

Computer doesn't see it as a device, thus adb or fastboot no longer work.

My first hard brick ever, and I hope my last!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
Hate to hear that. I'm sure you have already tried this but just in case you haven't. Vol up and power for 10 sec then immediately vol down and power for 5 seconds. Even if you don't see bootloader try fastboot command. Try with and without phone plugged in.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Well sorry to hear this,probably reason it borked your device is it needs the stock recovery i think to finish flashing,didnt look at it@scriptong but that would be my guess...I always flash stock recovery before flashing an ruu or firmware zip.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] guyd:
Tried those like fifty times! My device is is bricked harder than a diamond...

Wish I knew what exactly happened so I don't do it again. As I said in my previous post, I've done this same thing on my M7 several times without a hitch. Only difference I saw this time was that the RUU flash routine didn't stop after flashing the hboot like it did on my M7 and make me run it one more time to get the rest of the firmware flashed. To be sure I got it all, I flashed it a second time anyway. That was the only difference I saw!

---------- Post added at 09:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 AM ----------

I've ran the RUU flash command on my M7 with a custom recovery several times without incident. Didn't see why it would be any different on the M8, but something is. Wish I would have had an MD5 to verify my download, but it extracted fine so I think it was good.

Only one thing I found that was different from the M7 to the M8.

In the M7 it used hbootpreupdate:3

In the M8 it used hbootpreupdate:12

Wish I knew what this does different.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
how did you remove the boot and recovery out of zip? Mine says corrupted when i try to unzip which usually means its encrypted. If you just manually zipped it back up that could be the problem. I don't know what happened and am interested to figure out. At least it is just dead and htc should swap it out no problem.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] skhullar:
I'm curious. Sorry if this a silly question, I'm still new to all of this...

Wonders_Never_Cease, So I should flash back to the recoverydevm8.img you provided previously in the A_T_T_Test_1_12_1540_17_ISIS ROM you created first?

Thanks.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Safest way I would suggest is do a restore of a nand backup to completely stock developer build including recovery(1.12.1540.17) and then flash this via stock recovery if you havent gotten the notification after you revert to everything stock...You do not need to relock bootloader if s-off'd...as long as everything else is stock itll flash just fine...Hope this answered your questions about flashing this file.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] skhullar:
Thanks for the guidance.

Lets say a newbie, in his infinite wisdom excitedly rushed to apply a great ROM and failed to create a nand backup of his stock setup... Where would such a bonehead be able to get his hands on a complete nand backup of the stock developer build?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] an0ther:
I would suggest you make your phone super cid before you do any flashing.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Hes already running my rom....Not needed,using brightstar cid works fine as att and developer builds are same mid
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:

Thank You!
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] P05TMAN:
So no definite way to convert to Dev Edition then I'm guessing, right?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
surely is...you have an att variant telephone?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] GSLEON3:
Do you know if the "brick" guy ever was able to recover? Just curious if I should be looking at a de-brick solution for him.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] P05TMAN:
Yes I do, but I couldn't find any threads on how to do it. Is it just not in our forum?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
If you wanted to flash a ruu for developer build you could change your cid to brightstar cid (if one was available) or flash a full nand back up(still change cid to brightstar)....I just gave skhuller a complete stock nand backup with instructions....if interested pm me
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Unsure,I think it was dead and he returned it,havent heard either way.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] guyd:
I still have my Bricked Dev M8 sitting in the box. I've not found a service that can de-brick, jtag, (or whatever you call it) my M8. It's too new I guess, and a pain in the azz to take apart. I'll keep it in the box until I can find someone reputable to bring it back to life for me. In the mean time, I had to bite the bullet and purchase another one. Costly mistake, which I care to never repeat. :eek:
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] garyd9:
I just "converted" my AT&T M8 to a full Dev Edition M8. Here are the steps I followed (these are actually my own notes that I followed.)

assumes unlocked bootloader, S-Off.

1. Change to a TWRP recovery... and do a TWRP backup (to internal sd card) (The backup isn't really needed, but this step ensures that the proper directory is created and is a good step for paranoia)

2. Use this thread to download for the BS_US002 (1.12.1540.17) TWRP nandroid and stock recovery: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701376 (by getting the 1.12 and not 1.54 - I was able to test getting an OTA)

3. Boot your phone normally.

4. Unpack the TWRP nandroid and place the folder into the proper directory on your phone's sdcard (TWRP/Backups/SERIAL_NUMBER/)

5. reboot into fastboot mode.

6. change CID to BS_US002: fastboot oem writecid BS_US002

6. reboot the phone and get back to TWRP recovery

7. Restore the kernel (boot) partition from step 4. (not the kernel/boot from step 1)

8. Use TWRP to "factory wipe" the device. Do NOT wipe the "internal" storage. Only wipe the data/cache/dalvik cache partitions.

9. Use TWRP to do a full restore from the backup directory created in step 4. (Honestly, you could probably just do the full restore in step 7 and then skip this step.)

10. Reboot the system. (Do NOT accept any OTA's) After the phone comes back up, reboot to fastboot mode.

11. In fastboot, flash the proper STOCK recovery (from step 2): fastboot flash recovery filename.img

12. Probably not needed, but while in fastboot go ahead and run this: fastboot erase cache

13. Reboot from fastboot to the normal system. You can now accept OTA's and they should work.

Some more notes: This worked for me... it might work for you, or it might not. If you don't enjoy restoring phone partitions by hand, I'd suggest NOT doing this.

After performing these steps, you'll lose AT&T's fancy visual voice mail. After I did all this, I'm leaving my recovery as "stock" for now. I did need to boot into recovery to install superSU... this is easily accomplished using fastboot's "boot" parameter to boot to a recovery image that's not actually installed on the phone.

Oh, and thanks to [MENTION=5345690]Wonders_Never_Cease[/MENTION] for the PM's putting my fears to rest...

Take care

Gary
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Can also be set to cid BS_US001....
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Jarheadflip:
What is difference with bs_us001 and bs_us002
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] garyd9:
The 001 is the (SIM) "unlocked" version and 002 is the "developer" version. They both have the same software, however.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Jarheadflip:
Okay thanks
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] P05TMAN:
Do you loose Isis too?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
As ISIS is a carrier thing,yes isis will be lost...but there are work arounds if rooted...
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Nothing really...either way both can be used
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] P05TMAN:
As it backing up the apk and reinstalling it? Could it be the same process for Visual Voicemail?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] hack14u:
For now, the easiest way to get to Dev Edition was to convert to a GPE, and then convert to the Dev following this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2721435

Hope that helps those that seem lost. Until we actually see a full RUU from HTC, it's going to have to work.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
No theres some other files needed for isis on developer build
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Wonders_Never_Cease:
No that puts euro firmware on your phone,for those who havent flashed eveything under the sun and just just want to convert att variant to developer variant it is very easy.No firmware needed,only one line of code to change cid.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] cmaguss:
I can not flash the stock recovery recovery.img 1.12.1540.17. tells me that the file is way too big. any help
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] garyd9:
The first piece of help I'll offer is this: Don't quote the entire damn message. Some of us read on a mobile browser, and having to scroll through pages of "quoted" material is a royal pain. If you're too lazy to trim down the quote, why should someone else take the time/effort to help you?

The second piece of advice I'll give is to delete whatever you downloaded and start over. The recovery isn't too big, and the partition for the recovery image is the same size for all the M8 devices. You either got a bad download or you made a mistake typing one or more commands. The size of the stock 1.12.1540.17 recovery image should be 25,165,824 bytes (24MB)
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] cmaguss:
thanks for your help, successfully converted my HTC One M8 to a Developer Edition version.

One more question, If rooteo and return to install the recovery image, I get the update OTA normally
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Texas_Dave:

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Alaris:
Do you get the red writing with this method under tell HTC? Something along the lines of it being a test unit and they will collect data?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] cmaguss:

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Alaris:
Under about in settings there is something called tell htc in it in red writing saying that are able to collect info and that it's a test device

Help me please

Good Day community, I have a question to see if you can help me or someone who has already done.

I have my M8 (CID CWS_001 was originally AT & T) and I have SuperCID, I'm s-off, I have unlocked the bootloader, I installed the firmware 2.22.401.5 and TWRM 2.7.1 rom with 7.1 HD Maximus, good now my question is: I want to make the official Developer Edition version of HTC (CID BS_US002 and firmware 2.22.1540.3) the idea is to stick with OTA updates and all could help me with what I want? thank you very much to all.

greetings,
[Samsung Gear 2] DigitalJEM:
I use the Mailbox app for managing my gmail.. I've noticed that several times a day, an email will come in and I'll get multiple (usually only 2, but sometimes 3) alerts/notifications of that same email on the watch, all in succession. And when I go into the notifications folder, it shows the same email multiple times (as many alerts as I got)... when I check on the phone, sure enough, I only have one copy of the email in my inbox.

I just switched notifications off on Mailbox app, and turned on notifications on gmail app, and switched notifications in gear manager from mailbox to gmail also to see if it's somehow the app that's doing it, or if it's a bug in the gear manager software.

Was curious if anyone else is seeing this issue?
[Samsung Gear 2] DigitalJEM:
After 2-1/2 days of having absolutely no duplicate email notifications on the gear 2 watch (using the gmail app as notifier in gear manager), I switched back to the mailbox app a couple hours ago and it's already sent duplicate notifications to the watch several times.

Not sure how the app has anything to do with the notifications being sent, but it is apparently the app that's causing the problem.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aarix:
My attempted search ended up applying for lock screens with pins and a bunch of other irrevelant issues. I noticed since I rooted I get a BUNCH of random issues like the rotation breaking and a solution is to add libgnustl_shared.so in a directory and reboot which makes me think this has a stupid simple solution but long story short:

My s4's stock music lock screen widget is missing and everything from its built in sound picker and its regular widget are still there. I've done an Odin restore but that didn't help, its not the launcher and it didnt appear in safe mode either.

Having installed SJPhone 3.20b for Windows Mobile 5.0 (download from: http://www.sjphone.org/preview/ce/) I experienced very choppy inbound audio.

The solution is changing SJPhone's advanced audio settings as follows:

buffer size: 80 ms

input queue length: 10

output queue length: 5

RTP jitter queue length: 5

Audio quality through WLAN is quite okay now. As soon I'm in a place with 3G coverage I'll try to place a VoIP call over 3G, if O2 Germany hasn't blocked VoIP ports yet.

Btw, x-lite ce 1.01 has better quality than SJphone, at least on my TyTN, download here:

@Poof

Hi Poof,

Sorry for the trivial question but I geuss that answer isn't that obvious as it seems. YOu've mentioned that you're using X-Lite with some specific settings. I've downloaded the software using the link you had provided. I did manage to specify the SIP proxy and other SIP related settings during the first run of X-Light.

My question is: HOW DO YOU CHANGE OTHER SETTINGS? In case I need to change SIP IP HOW DO I DO THAT? I didn't succeed with finding searate file responsible for configuration nor I cold find settings changes option in the application itself.

I'd appreciate if you could advice me on these mattares.
