If I'm on 2.22.401.4 with stock recovery and I still get the error when trying to install the OTA, what am I missing?

Wrong CID? I have BS_US002

Edit: Crap, I need 2.22.401.5 which I don't know how to get.
[One (M8) Android Development] bacon612:
Can anyone verify that these firmwares are carrier agnostic. I have a Verizon M8 with CDMA. I'm curious of it will work with my phone.
[One (M8) Android Development] jxcorex28:
Can I flash this over 2.23.1540.3 ?
[One (M8) Android Development] HC4Life:
First flash the firmware and then the nored text HBoot.

[One (M8) Android Development] enerGy:
Thanks mate, Ive added the Firmware, NoRedText and Recovery into 1 zip if any1 needs it. Its the same as what you have done and told me to only all in 1 file and flashed through fastboot.
[One (M8) Android Development] Dan Tekle:
I assume u can flash this on vzw m8 and if so can u flash via sdcard method?
[One (M8) Android Development] enerGy:
I dont know mate the NoRedText Hboot link he gave me was International/WWE or something. I took the stock 1 out of the firmware zip posted and also the recovery and added the custom ones.
[One (M8) Android Development] Dan Tekle:
It's OK. I'll hold off until I know for sure.
[One (M8) Android Development] Dan Tekle:
Anyone, will this work on vzw m8?
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
Only if you have a correct vzw firmware. If you don't it will give errors and not flash correctly.It clearly states in the post title: [OTA] 4.16.401.10 + Firmware + NoRedText HBOOT + RUU The red highlight is the important part.
[One (M8) Android Development] ryansc375:
Anyone else have this issue with the 4.16.401.13 firmware? Saw this video and now I'm hesitant to install: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0mwGijffMI

Posted about it in Viper forum but realized this is probably a better place. Thanks!
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
No problems here. Could be rom related. If you're s-off you can always revert back. All good with me on arhd 43.0.

Could you please share this zip?

---------- Post added at 11:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 AM ----------

ok guys, i just flashed the firmware only zip, and now phone stuck on htc screen maybe due to kernel included in firmware zip, also recovery has been replaced

ALL good now, had to flash my kernel as im using an old kitkat rom

I've uploaded the edited firmware files incase someone else has same problems like me, these zips dont have any recovery img or boot img included in them, so whatever recovery and kernel you are using should remain the same. just rename to 0P6BIMG.zip and place on the root of your ext sdcard and flash in bootloader. You'll need S-OFF, because i rezipped the files. No more signature.
[One (M8) Android Development] sym_m:
how to flash full ruu ?
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
If it is an .exe extension, just connect your phone to PC with cable and execute the RUU.exe file. Backup all important stuff as it will wipe your phone. Make a Nandroid backup also, in case things go wrong. Remember to remove it from internal storage before flashing the RUU. If it fails to complete, put phone into fastboot oem rebootRUU and run again.
[One (M8) Android Development] Debizzle:
Guys it showing the firmware took but I cannot doing anything at the moment it just keeps looping back to bootloader. I have tried even wiping the phone nothing!!! Anyone have anything? Also when I try to push twrp back the phone it will not boot into the recovery at all.
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
Are you sure you flashed it TWICE? Is it the right firmware for your device? What colour is the firmware numbers in bootloader screen?
[One (M8) Android Development] Debizzle:
EInwood i got it everything is working fine now man i had to actually put 401.10 back on it to keep from looping. So its currently showing the 4.16.401.13 in green. The only issue it when I run these stagefright apps its still saying vulnerable!!! Btw you rock bro!! Thanks for responding to soo many of us!!!
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
As long as the firmware/OS version is green, you have the latest. Don't worry about the stagefright apps. Updating the firmware will NOT patch the stagefright vulnerability. It was the complete OTA package that needed to be flashed to do that. Here is a link of just the stagefright patch that has been made. Thanks to [MENTION=830797]ckpv5[/MENTION]

[One (M8) Android Development] Mr Hofs:

I can't get the RUU to work. Trying to flash through adb method. It says "unable to load". MD5 also matches but Winrar also says corrupted zip. What should I do?
[One (M8) Android Development] enerGy:
If you need mate I have the RUU 4.16.401.10 to flash, I also have Firmware 4.16.401.10 + NoRedText + TWRP 2.8.7.0 or Firmware 4.16.401.13 + NoRedText + TWRP 2.8.7.0 to flash after the RUU.

fastboot reboot

[One (M8) Android Development] Pingu_3D:
I'd like to get my HTC One M8 back to a position where I can sell it (I have two) and whoever buys it gets any future OTA updates. I've been reading lots of topics and posts over the past days and some seem to contradict each other so I am not sure what to do.

I am S-On 4.16.401.13 with an unlocked bootloader and TWRP installed and have the red text. CID is HTC__001 and MID is 0PB610000

Is this what I need to do...

1. flash a matching stock recovery

2. flash a no red text hboot

3. reset factory settings and sell it.

Is this right?

or will it need to be on 4.16.401.10 to get the next OTA update?

Do I need to relock the bootloader or does that need to stay unlocked for them to get the OTA?

If I relock the bootloader won't that bring back the red text?

Any advice much appreciated.
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
The only thing you need is to download the 14th file on this list. Run that file from a Windows PC with your device connected. Wait until it finishes completely. You are now back to stock Lollipop for 4.16.401.10. Start the phone and check for updates, you will get the update to 4.16.401.13. Done. You don't even have to set the device up. I did this yesterday before returning mine for repair. The only thing you need is an internet connection for the download OTA. Bingo, the device is out of the box new.
[One (M8) Android Development] Pingu_3D:
Thanks but it didn't work for me. I got error 155 and the readme says...

ERROR [155~159]: IMAGE ERROR

One of these error messages will appear when you use the incorrect RUU to update and the image file size is larger than the Flash ROM size. In this case, download the correct RUU version and try again.

Bootloader screen says Security Fail! RUU
[One (M8) Android Development] zyborg:
Any significant changes between 4.16.401.10 and 4.16.401.13?
[One (M8) Android Development] Einwod:
Confirm you are on firmware 4.16.401.10 or 13. Are you S-OFF? Did the RUU file download correctly? What was the size of your download?

This from another thread:

For “Error 155 relock bootloader" do:

- Since my thread works only with S-OFF phones anyway, this error can be read as: you need to S-OFF first!

- Error 155 can mean that you need SuperCID. On a few occasions this was shown when the RUU/FUU refused to run because of a wrong region lock.

- Lately, Error 155 has occurred when a FUU was launched from within android. When encountering a FUU error 155 with the process stalling after the rebootRUU (stuck at black screen with silver HTC logo), please just restart the FUU and leave the phone in that mode, or reboot the phone, then reboot to bootloader, then do “fastboot oem rebootRUU” and then launch the FUU again (thanks [MENTION=2677046]anarchychris[/MENTION] for pointing it out).

- run the fastboot command “fastboot oem lock" - only applies to S-ON phones that want to update the firmware with a stock OTA package (not offered on this thread!!). Stock OTA files sometimes need a locked bootloader.

I know they talk here about FUU, but the principle is the same. Relock the bootloader if it's unlocked.
[One (M8) Android Development] Pingu_3D:
Thanks guys. RUU update worked a treat when I re-locked the bootloader. I'm happily back to Stock now.

[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
It'll saying: Software status: Modified
[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
Coming from PA or GPE needs firmware flash.

To flash firmware with S-off, you should have SuperCID.

If you have a s-on device, you have to download the ota file and copy out firmware.zip and flash this.
[One (M8) Android Development] Rjev07:
I have a s-on device completely stock Rom and unrooted with stock recovery...so I should flash that firmware.zip from stock recovery...

Should I re-lock the boot loader...

Thanks.

My device..cid HTC_038
[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
If you are complete stock, why don't you use Software-Update ? OTA should popup then.

I think you have to relock bootloader, if S-OFF you don't need to relock.

If Update does not popup, rename the ota file to update.zip, boot into bootloader, boot recovery, select zip from intenal storage, and let it flash.
[One (M8) Android Development] tominozh:
I don't think it has anything to do with firmware more software/system/rom. If you running stock it says official, I flashed this firmware and running maximus and I says software status: modified.

can i restore backup?

Hello, im new rooting user. I have Htc one m8 international version cid _032. I dont see new update in settings, so i download manually and flash it with stock recovery. I am s-off. Locked bootlaoder. In bootlader i see new write: sowtware official after update.

So i found in forum after new update we cant boot in recovery (philp, twrp) to backup stock recovery and do a full backup. only flash recovery.What is another solution for this? I downloaded the ota but in folder i cant find stock recovery.

And i have old nand 4.4.3 and stock recovery for backup.(philip) But this i have when i was in hboot 3.18. So after new update 4.4.4 hboot 3.1.9, can i unlock bootloader and flash philip recovery to restore old backup? Or this will cause problems? Thanks. Sorry for english.
[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
Yeah, new firmware does not allow to boot recovery files. You need to flash the cwm again and then you can restore your 4.4.3 backup.. Rom will boot with new firmware too.
[One (M8) Android Development] kirmonidze:
So after old backup 4.4.3 phone will boot with new hboot 3.1.9 from 4.4.4? Can i restore old hboot 3.1.8? I want wait for official ota then he came for me., not for manual flash. And how can i do backup of this new ota 4.4.4 stock revovery? Thank yuo!
[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
If you have S-OFF you can downgrade to 2.22.401.5 firmware again, sure. Pull the recovery.img out of the firmware package.
[One (M8) Android Development] kirmonidze:
Sorry but i cant found recovery.img in frimware package :( where he should be?
[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
I removed it from my modified ones.. you'll need to look into the firmware.zip from the official OTA in #1.
[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
if you have supercid or a compatible cid it will flash all required images that are in the firmware zip.
[One (M8) Android Development] boe323:
don't get why it says bypassed though, I would expect to still say successful not bypass. After changing my cid to HTC__001 instead of supercid ...sbl1 flashed successfully and now my phone boots so damn fast its unreal, don't even have fastboot checked, that's another thing that makes me think there not being flashed. I will lock my phone and try the firmware again to see if they say succesfull or not. UPDATE: Still says bypassed so it still knows its not the proper firmware, ive locked and changed cid to match firmware aswell. Oh well, at least I can get sbl1 to say successful, which as made my phone boot super quick.
[One (M8) Android Development] SoLdieR9312:
My phone boots quick as hell too.. and i flashed the modified firmware, it said bypassed but its got flashed anyway.

So it has nothing to do with speed or other things. Only bootloader related.

[One (M8) Android Development] mrcaligula:
You can always download the "System Dump", the odexed version, and flash stock recovery in fastboot. Then you will have no problem getting the latest OTA.

You will loose root , but its easy and no risk of bricking .

I did this , haven't bothered flashed a custom recovery yet.
