Your link doesn't work.

What's your current firmware version? You can find it in bootloader under "OS", or you can hook up to your PC and get into ADB and do adb getvar version-main or fastboot getvar-main in fastboot (obviously)

Google Play Services

Currently I am having issues with Google Play Services, "gps has stopped working." The pop ups are nearly non-stop. Yesterday it was working fine with no problems. Since yesterday I updated my ROM to the most recent version of CyanogenMod 12.1 (from 12 via the CM updater). I've tried updating it (other than google play store as it does not work due to play services crashing) manually with many different versions even double checking that the apk i was downloading was for Android 5.1. Nothing has worked at this point and I am trying to avoid a full backup, wipe and reload. Anyone have any ideas?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Einwod:
A full backup at this stage will not help, as if you restore it later, you will restore the fault again. I suggest you save all your photos etc. and wipe the data partition in TWRP. You must confirm this by typing the word "yes" when prompted. Any other wipe will not do. This will format the data partition on the internal storage, you will lose everything. Then re-flash the ROM. If you are restoring apps from Titanium, I suggest you restore just the app and not the data until you are satisfied that the phone is working correctly. Afterwards, you can restore the data to the apps. Not what you wanted to hear, I suppose, but it's about the only way to fix the ........................... has stopped errors.

I'm confused about RUUs. On an S-On device what are the requirements to run an encrypted RUU? Stock recovery, locked bootloader, relocked bootloader, official status flag in bootloader? Which of these are necessary and which not?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Einwod:
Locked/relocked bootloader only. The RUU itself will flash the stock recovery. The RUU must of course match your CID/MID otherwise it will fail. You cannot use an older RUU on a device unless it is S-OFF. That is of course RUU.exe files. .zip extension RUU's are a different matter.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _purple_:
So, when S-On, even if I have root, even if I have a custom recovery, all I need to do is relock the bootloader and I'm good to go, correct?

Another question, if I soft brick my device and have never activated usb debugging, am I screwed? Will I be able to run fastboot commands while in bootloader?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rusty-ragster:
i have a rooted m8 display unit i want to go back to stock sense but can not due to the display unit software i can not even use a stock sense rom as the software pops up however i have noticed that on a gpe stock rom the software was nowhere to be found and did not pop up...anybody have any ideas about this? i am thinking to convert it to a stock gpe edition if that darn display unit software would go away.

by display unit i mean the demo mode that is usually displayed in stores for people to check out.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Einwod:
Good to go as long as the RUU file is RUU.exe (and matches your CID number) and not a .zip, yes. Better to activate USB debugging, not now, RIGHT NOW. You'll be screwed.

---------- Post added at 20:43 ---------- Previous post was at 20:39 ----------

Does the phone function as normal otherwise? Can you unlock the bootloader? Can you flash a custom recovery? If so, why don't you wipe the internal storage and flash a sense ROM of your choice? Of course, if you wipe internal storage, you lose everything, so backup pictures etc first. Can you find your CID number and firmware version?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rusty-ragster:
sorry i should have mentioned that in my post....

yes it does function normally...it is rooted, s-off with twrp and currently running candy5 rom i am super cid'd and my current fw ver is 4.16.401.10 i would also like to add that i have an international unlocked variant..yes that is what i have been doing till now but now i am about to give this phone to someone who is not tech savvy and could not do the regular maintenance that is required with custom roms...i did do a full internal storage wipe a few months back, by wiping internal storage does the demo unit software go away for good? because my friend had the same phone as mine and i flashed a stock rooted sense rom on it but the demo software came back i did not however wipe everything before i flashed it...another thing i would like to add is that when i got the phone it was running a stock GPE kitkat rom and there was no sign of demo software on that so currently i thought of 2 options..either i convert it to a fully functioning GPE device which i have no idea to do yet or just flash a stock GPE lollipop rom on it on and keep the custom recovery.i am open to flash a stock sense rom too as there are no wifi issues etc but have no idea if that demo stuff would come back..any suggestions? thank you for your help and i would appreciate it if you could point me to some good stock sense,gpe roms that i could flash with twrp..

Guys i have just bought my M8 today and i tried to root it and somehow i have lost my custom rom and i cannot find it anywhere is someone out there who can help me or already have it and can send me the link to download it ? Now if i realized well after looking and spending all day on youtube watching videos i would need to relock or lock my bootloader in order to install my custom rom is this correct ? now my carrier of the phone is unlocked but at the moment i am using GSM as i am in cyprus now .

Please help and advice what i have to do to return to Stock Rom 5.0.1 sense 6 or 7 ( i don't mind about the sense )

The reason i wanna change back to stock rom the official one is cos i wanna have a back up and plus the camera with this 5.0.2 lollipop version the frames are low i am not an expert but the camera is not good

Orange/Red led doesn´t flash - low battery

I have noticed that my LED doesn´t flash when the battery is bellow 15%. It only makes sound that the battery is getting low. Does anyone have the same problem? I have stock ROM, unlocked bootloader and root!

Thanks in advance!!!!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _purple_:
I don't recall apps being able to control the led but I might be wrong. If it is not a software issue then it's a hardware issue. Since both orange and red aren't working then it might be that red led is dead. There is a hidden app that can make various hardware tests but I can't remember how to start it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jurathesinner:
Sorry M8 doesn´t have red notification light only orange. When I charge my phone the orange led is solid. That means the led is not dead. Strange is when battery is low and I restart/turn off my phone to bootlader and then choose reboot the orange led start to flash when the phone is on!!! I think it must be a software problem (maybe after some HTC software update).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _purple_:
In leds the orange color is a result of a green and a red led turned on simultaneously. But since the orange led is on when charging then it definitely isn't a hardware issue. Sorry, I have nothing else to offer.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morrrido:
Hello.

I just bought an HTC One M8 in second hand.

It comes with Android 4.4.2. After investigating why I am not able to update it to Lollipop I found out that it is due to my phone beeing from Hong Kong and I live in Europe.

I checked and it has bootloader locked and S-ON.

This is my first Android phone ever. And I would like to have it updated to the latest version of lollipop officially or not. I would prefer officially but don't think I really can (correct me if I'm wrong).

So I have been reading about the SkyDragon Lollipop firmware.

I have lots of questions\doubts since I am a true begginer with android.

Can someone give me some pointers on what I have to do to install that firmware? If it's not possible, please tell me so.

I dont need a step-by-step, I can find those on my own. I just really need some pointers like:

1. Unlock bootloader.

2. Turn S-Off

3. Do this

4. Do that.

From what I read on the SkyDragon website: "HTC ONE M8, M7 & M9 All models currently supported".

So I guess this means It includes my Hong Kong version. Which one is it from the list he has on his signature?

**GPE**Sense 7 All Variants**Sense TMO**Sense ATT**Sense Sprint**Sense VRZ**Rbulled**SD Them

But if someone knows of a newbie friendly guide on how to do this I like to know please.

One last (stupid) question, can I "convert" my Hong Kong version to a European version in order to update it normally via OTA?

Best regards
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Device from Hong Kong and live in Europe doesn't stop OTA. Unable to update mostly due to wrong CID/MID combination.. such as EU CID but HKG MID won't work for OTA. So first thing to do is to find out current CID and MID.

fastboot command fastboot getvar all helps.

You need to S-Off the device in order to covert it to fully EU version. And for this, you need "SunShine" - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2792487

then we talk how to convert.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morrrido:
I'm having some issues running that command on both sides (PC and Phone).

PC Side - I don't think I have the required drivers, although I installed the following:

jdk-8u60-windows-x64.exe

installer_r24.3.4-windows.exe

setup_3.1.54.2_htc.exe

HTC_BMP_USB_Driver_x64_1.0.5375.msi

HTC_Driver_4.16.0.001.exe

MT6575 USB VCOM drivers.zip

HTC One M8 Toolkit 2.0.2.1.zip

It always says <waiting for device>

Phone Side - I boot holding volume down and pressing power. It states HBOOT, I am able to use volume down key to select an option. When "Fastboot" is selected I press the power button and the screen goes completely blank. Pressing power again, it restores the menu to select an option. Pressing volume up once also makes the screen go blank, pressing it again boots the phone.

I managed to get the command "adb devices" to work. "fastboot devices" returns nothing.

Anything in mind i'm doing wrong?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You don't need to install so many things. Just install HTC Sync Manager and then uninstall it (if you don't need it) but leave the drivers.

Then install fastboot/adb - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

If you can't go to bootloader then you'll have problem to install recovery for example.

What happen if you run adb reboot bootloader. Can it go to fastboot page ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] morrrido:
Tried on a different PC what you said. HTC Sync is also unable to find the phone.

However, with the command you stated, I managed to force it into fastboot mod.

With Titanium backup or Root Uninstaller, you can freeze or even delete this app. You must be rooted, though. OTA updates can not be installed if you have TWRP recovery on the phone.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Your understanding is wrong. One of the privilege of S-Off device is NO NEED to relock bootloader to run RUU or flash firmware.

If you re-unlock bootloader with HTC unlock_code.bin, yes you will lose data.

You can unlock bootloader with this this guide : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708571

BUT .. you need root for that.

What you can do :

1. find an unsigned firmware.zip that work for your device region, open the firmware.zip with 7-zip and remove everything except android-info.txt

2. rename TWRP.img to recovery.img and drag that in above firmware.zip

3. rename the firmware.zip to 0P6BIMG.zip

4. Put the 0P6BIMG.zip on your microSD (I believe you have one)

5. Boot to bootloader/hboot - it will ask you to update, volume up to accept

6. let it do its stuff

7. once finish it ask to reboot, then reboot

8. remove the file from microSD

9. Now you have TWRP installed

10. Download SuperSU zip : http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu and place it on your microSD

11. Reboot to recovery and install SuperSU zip

12. You can now unlock bootloader with the above guide without losing data.

hi all, welcome to my nightmare.

I'm on Orang001 and whilst trying to install the new OTA update, I bottled it and rebooted too early.
