Hello xda,

I have run into some trouble with my O2 HTC One M8. First, my readout from fastboot:

all: Done!

I have been running CM11 for some months and am pretty happy with it, but I want to upgrade to Lollipop. However, the phone won't let me do that, as hboot is only version 3.16.0.0000 and Lollipop need 3.19.

But now comes the kicker: To upgrade hboot, I need to return to stock (or set the CID to SuperCID), right? Now, I cannot return to stock, because there is no RUU / nandroid backup for my CID (O2___102). As I don't have S-OFF, I cannot install any other RUU. To get S-OFF with SunShine, I need to be on stock though, because right now I get the following error message: "Your device has a debuggable ramdisk (ro.debuggable=1). You need to flash a non-debuggable boot.img, stock would be best."

So basically: I need to get back to stock to go back to stock, or am I reading this wrong?

Is there a way out of this?

Thanks in advance for anybody who can help me.

Download this file https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934518148.

This is RUU (stock android 5.0) Put it on ext sd. Relock your bootloader with all-in-one-toolkit for HTC one m8. Rename downloaded file to 0P6BIMG and go to fastboot in bootloader ,press volume up to confirm installing and wait for end.Next you can unlock bootloader and root device again.Enjoy your android 5.0! :) Did you understand everything?

I've now gotten the phone to boot into twrp. I then used adb to push the insertcoin ROM onto the phone and then installed that. The install process went all the way through, but when the phone rebooted, it went straight to TWRP. If I go to "reboot" in TWRP, all the options (system, recovery, bootloader) all reboot into TWRP, and not into the system.

EDIT:

I've now gotten into the bootloader screen somehow. It says the following at the top:

Hold down the power button plus vol up untill you phone reboots (up to 20 seconds). IMMEDIATELY after the screen goes black to reboot, slide your finger from vol up to vol down. This will take you to your bootloader.

Hello,

I am having some troubles with stock Camera. It randomly forcecloses when launched.

It doesn't happen always, it actually happens rarely, but sometimes it did while I was in need of a quick pic.

It happens both in landscape and in portrait mode, even if launched with quick setting (volume down button).

I've looked for similar issues around xda and the web; most of them were solved in Lastpass settings, which I don't have.

This is happening recently; before Christmas I updated my firmware to 3.28.401.7 and flashed Android Revolution 22.1 and everything works fine since then except, occasionally, camera.

The last HTC Camera official update didn't fix the issue, which occasionally still occurs.

Thank you for help :)

I'm using HTC One M8x Taiwan CID 621. I'm running Stock Android 4.4.4 and firmware 3.28.709.6, using custom recovery TWRP 2.8.4.0. S-Off.

I got the Lollipop update downloaded, so I'm going back to stock recovery, but it says that I need to have the same exact number when doing it on lollipop.

The only stock recovery given here is 4.16.401.10.img, while my update is 4.16.709.09.img. So how do I update mine? Thanks in advance!

Edit: After some page scrolling on the Stocks thread, I found a 4.16.709.9 stock recovery img. I have 3 questions.

1. I can flash 4.16.709.9 stock recovery when I'm in Kitkat?

2. This 4.16.709.9 stock recovery will work when I update mine to 4.16.709.9 from 3.28.709.6?

3. How do the first guy got this 4.16.709.9 stock recovery if they came from Kitkat too?

I know these questions are lame but I'd like to know, I'm confused or something.

Hi I have a m8 running 4.4.4, rooted with a custom recovery.

I have appradio unchained installed, which needs to be converted to a system app to run properly. I did this on my old LG G2 by copying it to the /system/app folder no problem.

But I can't do the same with the m8. I tried several times using different methods (including ES file explorer and terminal) and copied the .apk successfully but the app crashes when I try and open it, and following a reboot the .apk is missing from the /system/priv-app directory.

I searched across the forums and can't find anything related, is there something I'm doing wrong? Thanks

Hi XDA Community I'm currently in stock Android with the M8 model No. Of OP6B120 from use of Google and my Carrier it is the international model. I've had it for under a year and got fed up with all the data mining from my apps and the 6 hours of life just from either using browsers or FB. I have the Liquid Smooth Rom, the GAPPS for Lollipop. My laptop with required drivers to root and unlock, what I'm torn between is going the route of a toolchain with HTC DEV or sunshine. My phone has stock 4.4.4 with Sense 6. And if I were to use the tool kit would I have the ability to s-off with moonshine/rumrunner etc? I know that these work with certain hboot versians mine being hboot 1.57. I've already made sure I know how to root the One with my older M7.

Returning to Stock

Good morning guys.

I am wondering if anyone is able to help me before i go completely nuts trying to work this out. (I also hope its in the correct thread.)

A few weeks ago i rooted my M8 following the steps on this website (htconeroot. - how-to-root-htc-one-m8/) with no issues at all. Unlocked the boot loader and also there is the software tag saying modified (my understanding is this is normal). Installed the custom recovery with no drama.

A couple of days ago i got the OTA notification that i can now download 5.0.1 (Happy days) however this is where i seem to be running into problems. I know that i need to revert to the stock recovery from TWRP and then from here need to relock the boot loader to install the OTA update. I think my main problem is that i don't know what version of the stock rom i need to install. I have tried a few but none of them will boot into recovery from the boot loader.

So this is where i am.

Boot loader works fine and will run fast boot and boot to custom recovery - does state that the OS - (Blank)

I have a swisscom locked phone (VODAP110) the software version is (3.29.166.9 from phone) however the main-version is blank, another website said i need a stock recovery (x.xx.166.x - Vodafone CH-DE (Switzerland - Germany))

The last stock recovery that i put on the phone was (3.29.161.5 recovery.img) this then would allow me to start the phone and run the OTA update. From here the phone will restart and start the update but after about 20/25% the phone will crash displaying a picture of the phone with a red triangle and upside down exclamation mark. I read somewhere that if this problem happens to erase the cache and it should fix the problem but it didn't.

Could anyone please point me in the correct direction or help me solve the problem i am having.

Do i need to ?????

1) install the correct stock recovery (if so could someone please help me find the correct version)

2) Flash the stock rom from HTCDev (no clue how to do this with fast boot and if it will restore the recovery)

3) Give up on OTA and look for a custom 5.0.1 flash and use TWRP to flash from recovery.

Thanks so much for any help.

Hi.

I upgraded to Lollipop a few days ago, and I'm experiencing some trouble with WiFi. IT simply doesn't work.

I was running a custom ROM beforehand, and the WiFi would disconnect at weird times, and then it wouldn't reconnect until I restarted the phone - now I just get "Error" under the WiFi tab in settings. I can't do anything at all.

My CID is _Y13, and I'm located in Denmark.

Is there any fix to this? LTE is a pure battery drainer, even with the better battery time with 5.0.

Thanks in advance. :good:

About OTA update...

Hi all, some days ago, i resoted a nandroid backup and the stock recovery to receive OTA because I can't go in S-OFF... Now i've got a (strange) problem, I installed the OTA update from 2.22.401.4 to 3.xx and after this I directly installed OTA from 3.xx to 4.xx... My phone may bricked after the last update so i restored another time the nandroid backup with 2.xx firmware and cwm recovery... Once I reboot my phone (with cwm installed) my phone tells me that I can receive OTA... I was thinking that with a custom recovery OTA will not be received but this made me think again... Now I'm installing the 3.xx OTA but for security I restored the stock recovery corresponding with the 2.xx firmware (another thing, the recovery has not worked giving me a triangle with a exclamation mark but I decided to download OTA anyway)... The real question is if I get 3.xx update can I install Android Revolution 30.1 without problem? I really don't want to risk installing another time stock 4.xx OTA!

Verizon HTC one m8 on straight talk horrible reception in good reception areas

I just recently bought an HTC one M8 (had an m7 in the past and loved it) and this one is right up there on my list of loved phones, however I am using on straight talk and it works, but I get horrible reception in areas that is not to be expected...

Areas that I usually get full bars and 4g LTE if I am using an ATT branded phone with straight talk or that friends using Verizon are getting I am lucky to pull one bar and E for internet.

I do know that there are options on which mode to kick into (GSM, CDMA, LTE/legacy/3gpp or LTE mode) and I use GSM.

I think in total the most bars that I have pulled has been 2 and in stores such as walmart or the grocery store I get no service whatsoever.

Wondering if there is anything that I can do for this (perhaps rooting or custom roms, not sure if that would have any effect) or am I best off selling my verizon one and switching to an ATT?

Thanks all.

Lollipop on HTC One M8

So I have a HTC One M8 that was originally on Rogers (Canada) but I unlocked it and am using it on Wind Mobile. The thing is that lollipop started rolling out for Wind phones a few days ago and I did not receive an update. So I waited till today, Feb. 2nd, when the update was supposed to begin for Rogers and Telus customers. I still have not received the update.

Should I just keep waiting or is there a special process I have to undergo because I unlocked my phone? If not, should I expect to be updated with the Rogers customers or the Wind customers? The phone has never been rooted if that makes a difference.

I'm sure there are, but I'll make it easy for you.

If you haven't yet, visit www.htcdev.com and unlock your boot loader. This will wipe your internal storage and void your warranty.

Visit teamw.in and download the latest recovery for the gsm model (not sprint or Verizon!)

Download the ROM, place on sdcard or internal storage, reboot to TWRP, backup your current system if you wish, then, wipe everything (system, data, cache, and dalvik cache), then flash the ROM. Boom, you have viper one installed. Enjoy.

GPE->Sense lollipop firmware

I know that this has been covered in various permutations, but I'm seeing some conflicting posts and want a definitive answer. I have an S-OFF AT&T, I did the lollipop GPE RUU conversion. I am ready to change to Sense 4.16.1540.8. Do I need to flash an old firmware first? Do I even need to flash a firmware if its already on lollipop? Does sense lollipop have a different firmware than GPE lollipop? Can I just use the latest WWE RUU without flashing a firmware? Confusion is enhanced by some posts saying that I should use a DEV edition RUU. Thanks for your time.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beats4x:
You HAVE to run a Sense RUU, as the GPE conversion changes your partition size. No ifs, ands, or buts, you have to. Grab the dev edition RUU, back up your stuff, and run it. Sense != GPE, firmware or ROM side.

Also, for future use, firmware is included in an RUU, the system image is included in an RUU, basically every single partition you can think of is included. Any other firmware packages you find on here are parts if the RUU, if you will.
