Firmware 3.28.401.6 with Viper 2.5.0 ?

Can i flash Viper Rom 2.5.0 on M8 with Firmware 3.28.401.6 ?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneakyghost:
Yes. Works perfect. Best battery life ever, signal also good (for me at least).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelo.bautista5:
i also flashed the 3.xx update. im on s-off, supercid and my custom rom was viperone 2.5... when i was flashing the update, error 24 appeared. im already on supercid so i wonder why would it fail. so i reflashed the previous firmware which is 2.22.401.5.. it went well but then when im alrady on my homescreen, i notice that i don't have a signal from my mobile network and after a few minutes the phone restarts. could you help me?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneakyghost:
yea well depends... a 401 firmware did previously work for you? The new 401 firmware should then work too.

Looking at my error code list i see an error 23 which is a zip error and another close number which is also a close number and also a zip error.

I suppose there was an issue with the firmware zip you flashed. Did you verify the MD5 hash before you flashed it?

It might have been damaged during download and the zip wasn't actually flashed?

I suggest you choose the ZIP flash method and manually reflash it, then post the console window content here. It will tell me which images got flashed and what error occured (maybe). If there was no error, it means the new radio probably just doesnt work for you or the ROM and Carrier combination or something like that....

anyhow... without knowing exactly what happened, it can not be diagnosed properly.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angelo.bautista5:
thanks. the 2.22.401 did work for me but the new 3.x.401 update after i flashed, caused (maybe) the no signal problem. i already dealed with the error 23 problem but unfortunately, as i mentioned, the signal was gone. all the method i used for flashing was fastboot. i already tried to revert to the stock rom and stock recovery that matched the original cid. what i noticed was the imei was unknown. tried to fix it but i guessed i just bricked my phone. now it is not turning on :( . i don't know if there is another way to unbrick it other than using jtag.

Hello sir, in order to use my firmware you'll need to S-OFF first.

As stated in post #1, this is not for S-ON users.

Other than that, if your CID is HTC__044, this firmware is for your device as well.

I can see some people mention 3.28.401.7 FW, but you have the 3.28.401.6. Any reason to use x.7 instead of x.6?

P.S.: i love your FUU ?

/ Sent from my phone /
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneakyghost:
No mate. All i know is it contains a fix for croatia. Its been rolled out to other countries too though, so i made FUU's and ZIP's because i guess there are more fixes in there. Just don't know what yet.

This was a totally blind update. Tested, yes, but not taken apart and looked at like i usually do. I have NO clue whats inside. Only thing i checked is Recovery and whether or not it was updated. Yes it was.

Anyhow, HTC often doesn't do much more like build date changes. Sometimes, hboots or recoveries get pushed out that are just newer, but not changed.

They have a streamlined building process and if they update one major thing, they often just automatically build a RUU or OTA Firmware and all files get new build date stamps. At least that is what i have seen occasionally in the past. Files that are 100% identical in hex view except the file header that contains the creation date.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I believe you need to use a custom kernel that supports Verizon. There are other folks around here that know a lot more about the Verizon version (its not the version I own, I'm just passing along what I've read). So you might browse around for relevant threads, particularly in the Verizon M8 section.

And you can only flash ROMs and kernels if you can obtain s-off and bootloader unlock with sunshine.

Going back to Sense from GPE (converted)

Hi there.

I converted my phone to GPE following the graffixnyc thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708589) with no issues but now I would like to go back to sense to try Sense roms with more tweaks.

is it safe to use the RUU zip file posted in your thread using the ADB commands? same as GPE convertion

Please advise.

There is no RUU zip in Sneaky's thread afaik.

You can find RUU zips here though.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneakyghost:
Like xunholyx said, my zips aren't suitable to return to Sense. GPE conversion's most annoying problem is that the GPE RUU reformats the NAND and makes the system partition smaller. It does so by writing imaged raw data (the .img files in the ROM.zip) to the NAND. Those are the partitions, basically. So, since my zips do NEVER have a system.img file in them, my zips would not return your device to the bigger system partition size.

Or so my theory. Never actually tested that. I might be wrong too. Feel free to test with my zip if it works or not, and if it does not work, you can still flash the RUU.

Restore to sense successful

Restore to sense successful

I used the zip file posted on this link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B17s...B3NWxoNnM/edit

and follow by the next steps:

1.-change the CID to HTC__032 and the MID to 0P6B10000

2.-Re-name the file to 0p6bimg.zip and put it into the external SD

3.- adb reboot bootloader

4.- Phone will prompt if you want to apply update, say yes.

5.- wait around 10 minutes, everything will be erased

6.-After that you will have all the set-up process (g-account, etc, etc), if you want to stay on European version that's it.

7.- I'm living in the US so I changed to sense developer version CID:BS_US002 and MID: 0P6B12000 by following this tutorial , this will take you to android 4.4.2 but you can get the OTA updates as soon you do the first boot.

http://htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-...edition-for-super-fast-sense-updates-0156524/

Your phone should be s-off, unlocked and rooted.

I'm not responsible for any damage that you may cause to your phone!

I have been playing with this and that and finally I got sense back., a few soft-brick issues were faced during my playing but finally I got it.

At the end I went back to GPE, I missed it!!!smoother interface and better battery

Hello guys.

I'm a newbie at most of this stuff so I just thought someone might want to help me out so I don't turn out doing something I'll regret. I'm currently on android revolution hd 34 and thought it would be nice with an upgrade. I've read that it's recommended to flash the firmware (i am currently on 3.28.401.6) to match the rom firmware so thats what i'm about to do. I've downloaded the "M8_6.12.401.4_WWE_TWRP2870.zip" which has a matching model id. I am though on cid number "11111111" but if i've understood correctly i can just modify the "android-info.txt" like in the example below and then follow standard instructions? I have s-off.

"cidnum: HTC__001

Hi all,

Maybe someone can help me. I did not found a post with the same issue, i guess.

I want to upgrade my One M8 GSM with S-off, unlocked, SuperCID (previous HTC_002) and Android Revolution HD 11.1 to Firmware 3.28.401.7 with FUU_3.28.401.7_WWE_FullStock_Wipe_M8.exe and FUU_3.28.401.7_WWE_TWRP2803_NoWipe_M8.exe (only to get TWRP 2.8) and afterwards ARHD 21.

While in Bootloader-USB the FUU Tool do not show the current Firmware and the One M8 is blank in the OS-Line.

However the FUU Tool shows Firmware 2.22.401.5 when i'm in normal “Phonemode”. Maybe its the ROM Version from ARHD 11.1?

Is that normal?

What time do i use the FUU? In Normal Mode? Or in Bootloader-USB?

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

That's perfectly normal. In bootloader, the info is being read from the misc partition. That info got damaged from TWRP 2.7.xx. I explained that In post 5 of my main thread.

In Android, the software version is being read from build.prop and hence you'll always see the ROM version but not the firmware version.

The FUU is meant to run in both fastboot mode and Android. However, sometimes it errors out when launched in Android due to issues with adb for example. Then it's a good idea to boot into fastboot and try again.

Hope this clears it up.

Rom.zip or Firmware_xx.zip ??

I've downloaded your M8_xxxxxxxxxx_rename_to_ROM.zip

In your first post you say I have to rename that file to ROM.zip.

However, in method #2 you say I have to run the command: > fastboot flash zip Firmware_xx.zip.

Should it be 'ROM.zip' or 'FIRMWARE.zip' ??

Why? It's two differing methods. Got two headlines. The FUU requires it to be named ROM.zip. I think I did write that.

The other method, the manual zip flash without the FUU, does not require the renaming. Of course, you still could though, because typing rom.zip into console is easier than typing such a long name...

If you used my full zip, there is no point flashing the previous. My zips are full updates. You didn't miss any important part.

Your issues sound like a ROM issue much rather. Or like you didn't flash the ROM new after the firmware update - that is very often required to even out some quirks.

Hi. I'm currently on 3.28.401.6 but want to change to the 3.33.61.9 because of fixes for EE network. Is this possible? I'm supercid.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneakyghost:
I am totally unsure what fixes EE got implemented. If it is solely radio related, it might be a good idea to flash this firmware only. If the fixes also concern parts in the updated ROM, like the ril files that communicate with the radio, or settings, or whatever, this FUU thread is not enough for you, it will only update your firmware. To get the rest updated, you will need to find a ROM that has the .9 patch files already integrated.

If i may tell some super secret stuff from the internal Viper works, our devs found some changes to camera and audio, but not much else. So, chances are, you get your expected fix by just flashing this firmware. If you do not see any improvements, you might want to search for a ROM that has already integrated the patch. Team Venom is working on it.

Seeing the busy times we experience lately, that patch-up of ViperOne might still take a while. But it will come.
