According to this thread, software/firmware number for rogers is 631. So

none

of the firmware zips on the ARHD website will work.

To update your firmware with s-on, your best bet is probably to return to stock ROM and stock recovery with the files and instructions on the stock nandroid thread, then OTA to Lollipop (as a Google search tells me the Rogers update rolled out early Feb): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

To return to stock, you can restore a stock nandroid that corresponds to your presently installed firmware. What is your hboot number?

what i meant was, i tried to wipe my phone back to factory settings through TWRP, but i think my data was corrupt or something and it couldn't mount or something, whilst looking through the internet for a fix, i foolishly tried to find a alternative method and in the wipe section on TWRP there is a format phone or something like that button, i pressed that and here i am

my carrier originally was fido (ROGER001 or something) but i switched it to SuperCID (i'm assuming you mean this)

S-off

it does not come on at all and i cannot boot into anything

the computer still reads it when i connect it but it just makes lots of local discs popup and the com tells me to format them

my hboot number is 3.16.0.0000

Everything was working before on android 4.4.2 with the android revolution custom rom. The wi fi didn't work after updating to 4.4.4, and by trying to fix it the twrp and os itself doesn't work anymore
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Yes, that hboot number corresponds to 4.4.2 firmware. You can restore a 4.4.2 stock nandroid, and WiFi will work. Then you can restore stock recovery, and then it should go through the updates to get you up to Android 5.0 (including corresponding firmware). After that, you can flash custom recovery, and be able to run any 5.0 based ROMs.

Alternately, restoring a 4.4.2 nandroid, or flashing any 4.4.2 based ROM will get WiFi working again. But you will be limited to those ROMs, until you update the firmware.

If you hold power for 10 seconds or more (also try holding power + vol up; and also power + vol down) you get nothing?

If you internal storage was corrupt, and you selected FORMAT DATA, I believe that was actually the right thing to do. And shouldn't have caused your present dilemma.

Help with bootloop? Where did I go wrong?

I have an AT&T M8. "Unlocked" S-OFF Running Skydragon GPE 4.4.4 current last November. I haven't updated since until now. Went to install the newest Skydragon ROM Downloaded SkyDragon+M8+v+40.0+WWE+International.zip and left it in my /sdcard/Download folder by accident.

Running PhilZ Touch Recovery 6.26.6, Clockworkmod v6.0.4.8

Did a backup using PhilZ Recovery to /sdcard

Wiped Dalvik, Cache, Data/Factory Reset

Installed zip using Free Browse Mode so I could access it in my Downloads folder

All selections went well: Full wipe, installed the Skydragon Kernel V-3.1.5, sound updates, etc

Then it says

"Installation Failed

Went back in to recovery to restore and it gets stuck in the boot screen.

Please help! Where did I go wrong? Anyone know how to resolve this?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fizbanrapper:
Thanks for the reply, but that's not what I mean. Sorry for not being clear. BlissPop is very nice. I've been building the ROM for my device since it started as Bliss Stalk.

Here is my fear. I buy the Kardon, GPE variant or other "X" variant, then discover that there are significant differences in the variant, and half of the custom ROMs out there say "this works on all M8's except for X". I want to avoid buying that X variant, if there even is one.

I'm proud of the progress I've made with development. I've even built my own custom kernel, but I'm still very very new to this. It would be disrespectful to the community if I called myself a developer. I'd love to contribute something to the community by continuing to compile ROM's and eventually do some kernel work. If others can't get builds to work on Kardon, GPE or other X variant, I'm not skilled enough to be the one to crack the code and do it. I don't want to get stuck with a device I can't even compile a ROM for.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _purple_:
Hello everyone. I'm new owner of HTC One M8 and I used this guide (http://www.phonearena.com/news/How-to-completely-block-in-app-ads-the-proper-way_id52292) to get rid of ads. I thought I would read carefully and proceed and that would be ok but there were no warnings. As a result I installed an Xposed version meant for KitKat on Android 5.0.1 The Install/Update button is not tappable and the Uninstall button gives the error message of the second screenshot I attached. So I cannot uninstall it the proper way and I read that I'm not supposed to remove it from Settings -> Apps either. But because of the first screenshot I have the impression that the installation of Xposed did not make any changes to my /system or anywhere.

How do you suggest I remove it safely?

HTC One M8 (Taiwan) Return to original stock rom

Hi.

Can you teach me how to return my HTC One M8 (taiwan version) to return its original stock rom like fresh from the box again?

My CID is HTC__621. My past problem is that 1 update was interrupted, means it didn't finish as a result I lost access to my main camera. So now Im planning to return to KitKat if possible if not as much as possible to a rom where can I update upto to the latest OTA because it was on KitKat before I updated it to lollipop and I'll just update OTA upto lollipop again.

What tools do I need to have to do this?

What steps should I do?

What files should I download?

How would I know if what should I download?

Do I need an SD card to do the process or I can just us PC?

Fast boot is not present anymore in the Settings>Power because of the update lollipop 5.0.1

Custom ROM installation

Hi there, I have never done anything to my phone before, so even after reading all the useful info on XDA, I'd like to make sure I understand what's going on.

What I'd like to do: install a custom ROM (specifically, SkyDragon Sense 7 ROM).

Status of the phone: stock, unrooted, bootloader locked, S-on, Lollipop 5.0.1, hboot 3.19, CID T-MOB101 (as in German T-Mobile), no SIM lock.

Procedure as I understand it: 1. unlock the bootloader via htcdev.com; 2. Flash custom recovery, say TWRP; 3. Make a nandroid backup; 4. flash the ROM.

Question: with hboot 3.19 I'm staying S-on for the time being, then my CID can't be changed. Does it mean that the ROM I'm flashing should correspond to that particular CID? The good folks behind the SkyDragon ROM have several variants of their software, but none specifically for the German T-Mobile. Or I can flash a ROM for any other CID, say WWE? Why do they bother with different variants then?

Thanks in advance.

You got the basic process correct.

Not positive why they have a T-Mob US specific version. But my guess is that it includes WiFi calling, which is a carrier specific feature, and a fairly popular one.

Just flash the WWE ROM. ROMs in general don't need to be CID specific. AT&T isn't listed, but I flashed the WWE version and its been working flawlessly for a few days now.

---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 PM ----------

HTC removed that option with Lollipop (or maybe earlier? Not positive).

In any case, if the option is not there you can skip the step. Even if it was there, its not that important. The "Fast boot" option selected just prevents you from booting into bootloader (power + vol down) from a power-off condition (since the phone is not really "off" when the Fast boot option is selected). But it always works from a

reboot

condition no matter if "Fast boot" is selected or not (its a "true" reboot no matter what).

If so, flash stock ROM, stock recovery, then you can OTA update. Unlocked bootloader is okay.

Or relock bootloader (not required if s-off) and run the appropriate Sprint HK RUU. PC required, and backup your personal data before RUU, as RUU will wipe the phone.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you are just trying to flash back to a Sense ROM (after "fully converting" to GPE) , you can't do that because of the partition size differences between GPE and Sense.

RUU is what you want. But if it doesn't detect the phone, you have a USB connectivity issue and you need to address that. Try to install/re-install HTC Sync and/or HTC drivers. Check USB type (3.0 often does not play well with RUU), and try a different cable and different USB port on your PC.

Also, some folks have had to flash the Dev Ed firmware, and then RUU. But you still need to resolve your USB connectivity problem first.
