Stock ROM (never rooted - unrooting won't work for OTA) and stock recovery are typically required for OTA.

Also, is Verizon your carrier? Pretty sure VZN is one of the ones (AT&T also) that require you be connected to their network to get OTA updates.

Might be a lol question but.. i am still downloading the rom due to unstable and very slow internet here.. man thats about 5-50kbps per sec hardly...

Question is.. i'm on win 8.1 with only 3.0 ports will all process will work i.e from unlocking bootloader -TWRP-Su.

And a issue i'm currently having on stock is no otg support after update and my htc earphones are not supported. I search much about it and tried many solves but still the earphones work for a few secs and if even moved a bit they stop working suddenly. Others are supported and mine is supported to other phones but not usable with m8.

Will changing rom to viper will fix the otg and earphone?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
MM ROMs seem to run fine with LP firmware. Its actually my current setup (Dev Ed LP firmware with Dev Ed stock MM ROM) as I haven't gotten around to flashing MM firmware yet. And its been running fine since I flashed the MM ROM around Christmas.

Although matching MM firmware with MM ROM is ideal. If you are currently on 4.16.401, then yes the 6.12.401 firmware would be what you want.

The TWRP number indicated by the firmware actually indicates what version TWRP is included in the firmware. So you'll be on 2.8.7 after flashing the firmware; and will need to flash TWRP 3.0.0.0 to get back to the the latest version.

Also, since I am on stock, how come my software status in the bootloader still says modified and why is it when I boot to recovery, it's just a red triangle?

I also cannot download anything from the Play Store.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dewzone:
Use power button + upper volume button combo for having recovery options.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Don't know about the wifi, but it says modified because your bootloader is unlocked, and the red triangle is stock recovery.

Flash TWRP, then flash a ROM, and your wifi will probably work good again.

If you don't want a custom ROM, and want to be on stock now instead, you could try running the official RUU for T-Mo from HTC's US website and see if that fixes your wifi problems.

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 PM ----------

Did you relock your bootloader first, since you are S-On?

In fastboot: fastboot oem lock, then run the RUU again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AnAznBoy9724:
So stock recovery is the red triangle, but to get the menu, follow Dewzone's directions. That's interesting. I'll see how the next day or two goes with the WiFi issue. If not, I will run the RUU. Thanks!

I spent like 5 hours yesterday reading all kind`a info about how,where,why etc ... and the more i read,the more confused i got :eek:

Things i got to find out about my M8 = *software status: official* *Locked* HBoot-3.19.0.0000 Radio-1.22.30306251.27G CidNum- HTC__Y13 Version Main - 3.33.401.6 (can provide with any other info ,if needed)

So the things i`m clearly too dumb to understand is STEPS from A-Z ,to get Android Revolution HD over Original(full with crap )ROM !?!

Would appreciate if some smartass could explain step by step what should i do first,and what last... should i get S-off first,or should i unlock it first,or make it bootable ...as i told, i read so many info ,and got rally confused about all that process :silly: ,

of course if it`s possible to get new ROM on M8-Dual SIM

Update Problem with M8

I live in Spain and bought a HTC One M8 from Vodafone here. Immediately after purchasing it, I was unable to update the software version. After multiple tries, I took it back to Vodafone and they sent it off to HTC. HTC returned it saying that the problem was not reproducible. I tried again, and after being unable to update once again, I contacted HTC. After going through the normal procedure of factory resetting and trying again, they told me that I needed to send it in again. I have been without my phone for the last three weeks and do not want to return it. I have no idea what to do at this point. After downloading the update, I receive a red triangle and then the following:

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You can't. The only thing you can downgrade with s-on is main version software (OS) which is not how firewater was patched. The patch most likely has to do with hboot, which can't be downgraded with s-on.

In short, if you've tried firewater a few times and it doesn't work, its not going to; and you should just follow the previous suggestion to just do sunshine.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] passion4tech:
My hboot is 3.16.0.0000 and its suppose to work with firewater so how can it be patched? I have to downgrade the software os to get firewater to work. I know downgrading to older software os will make firewater work.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I've read conflicting reports, some say you should be on stock ROM and kernel for firewater to work. Others say the kernel needs to be insecure. You can try both. But if it still doesn't work, you will have to pay for sunshine.

Software is just the ROM. All you need to do to "downgrade" is flash a different ROM in custom recovery, or restore a stock nandroid.

Here's what you do for the google play service FCs.

Go to settings > security > device administrators, and uncheck Android Device Manager.

Once that is unchecked, you will be able to uninstall gogle play services in settings > apps

Then dirty flash your ROM. Problem solved.

After that you can re-enable Android Device Manager.

HTC One M8 rooted stuck on endless loop after downloading Multirom My phone is an HTC

My phone is an HTC One M8 running Android Revolution HD and TWRP Recovery. I recently downloaded Multirom thinking that I could hold multiple roms just by downloading the app. The app told me to reboot into Recovery mode to finish installation, and I rebooted into recovery. The only roms that were available to boot in was Internal so I just chose that. Turns out Internal will always get me stuck into the htcONE boot screen even after 1 day of waiting. If I try to go into bootloader mode and go into factory reset, it brings me back to the MultiROM menu everytime. I cannot even access the phone from the computer to edit the files.
