tried the splash zip then did factory reset still didnt work

tried flashing firmware of 3.28.401.6 and then factory reset and still it didnt work

how do i make it work with fastboot method?

how did you make the fastboot method work? i keep getting header error. i tried everything suggested in this thread(splash, changing cid)

im s-off and on unlocked bootloader
[One (M8) General] BerndM14:
Maybe try to unzip the .zip file(preferably with 7zip) and then rezip it. I can't say for sure that it's a definite fix but I have experienced that error once when it couldn't "unzip" the .zip for the device, it wouldn't even open or extract on PC. Until I used 7zip to unzip it and rezip it using 7zip again.

It then worked on both the PC and the phone(could flash the file then).

So, worth a try maybe :confused:
[One (M8) General] navid0308:
superCID is not a problem, use it

change MID to developer version from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708581

download RUU exe of developer edition because thats the build you're on from here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/

run the exe you downloaded!

fyi, in your build number notice how you have the number 1540? that means developer version. wwe versions have 401 instead of 1540.

if you wanna go to wwe fully, keep superCID, change to EU mid using the link i gave and then try the RUU in this thread

good luck

---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:34 PM ----------

mine works using the sd-card method so i dont think it's the zip's problem. i read somewhere that the zip's too big for fastboot so idk, maybe thats the problem
[One (M8) General] BerndM14:
Maybe, I don't know... It seems to have worked for some guys at least though.

I also did a bit of looking around and found this on Sneakyghost's firmware page:

I highlighted error 32 because I assume that was the one you got. You did however already state that it doesn't have an issue with the sdcard method, so I don't know...

I am on a full GPE converted Device . Now it is a Firmware Lollipop with V5.0.1

Current firmware (m8_google): Android 5.0.1/LRX22C

I converted from KTU84P to LRX22C

I want to go back to sense (Full Stock 100%)

I thought the steps are:

1-Change CID to 11111111

2-fastboot flash zip 1.54.401.5-W_Splash.zip

3-Put the 0P6BIMG.zip on a SD CArd and reboot in bootloader...

right ?

Well step 2 fails with error 41 (wrong Device). I tried CID HTC_0032 HTC__001 ...same error...tried may times..

Step3 : Can I put the file on OTG instead of SD Card ? I don't have one!

Guys any help ?

I need to sell my phone and I need to go back to sense...full stock !!
[One (M8) General] :
As I said many times before: in case of copy errors (file won't copy to sd card mounted in phone) pull out the card, mount it in card reader/another device (i.e. digital player) and copy RUU there. Then again mount your card in a phone with copied RUU and start update process again.

First of all change your CID to SuperCID: 11111111. After installing system you can revert to your original CID.

How can I install a TWRP on GE ?

[One (M8) General] :
Without sd card you are lost :D Buy a cheapest one, even 8 GB is enough. In case of reading problems format sd card to FAT32.
[One (M8) General] pierreammoun:
Ok. I got the SD Card issue.

It does not matter if I am on GE right ?

I just need supercid 11111111 and put the file 0P6BIMG.zip and reboot in bootloader... ?

Thanks again !
[One (M8) General] pagoweb:
There's no need of sd card, fastboot can do the job.

The step 2 you described seems to be your issue : you must be in RUU mode to flash a firmware ('fastboot oem rebootRUU' only then you can 'fastboot flash zip RUU.zip')

If you have already tried RUU mode, then the error message suggests a wrong MID : so have you modified your MID ?
[One (M8) General] Dominique96:
Here is what I did to go from fully converted gpe to stock sense. Changed my CID to HTC_001 . Changed my MID to european , connected my sd card to my pc and copied the 0P6BIMG.zip onto it.

You may also wanna look into this tool http://d-h.st/w9V which makes changing your mid much easier. Just copy it on your sd card enter recovery mode ( need a custom recovery ) and install the zip. An aroma installer will provide you with steps that you follow by just hitting next etc and selecting the mid you want and it will do it for you. Hope it helps

Have you renamed the file properly ?

If you've also got the file on a laptop, or pc, right click it and check properties. Make sure it's not got "zip.zip" as file name.

Hi All, I've got all messed up. My phone has no OS. I've copied 0P6BIMG.zip to my external sd (both tried working fat32 and exfat formats) and load it on HBoot. It loads the zip file and ask me to reboot after loading. But after reboot it stays on the white screen HTC logo forever nothing happens.

[One (M8) General] navid0308:
according to your phone's settings this zip should flash properly :\ you should probably download the zip again, rename and copy it to sd. DO NOT toy around with the zip, its encrypted and needs to stay that way! good luck man.

and idk much about which format the SD card should be in but if its able to detect the zip and flash it, then it seems ok

and also, be sure to put the zip in the ROOT of the sd card(NOT INSIDE ANY FOLDER)
[One (M8) General] devinceter:
Thanks for you reply. I did everything what was stated in option 2. But none if it works. I have two external sd card tried fat32 and exfat put the zip file(untouched) to the root but still got the same white screen with htc logo on it after finishing of the load and ask me to reboot. I have no idea what is going on so I thought that this zip file is NOT intended for my phone cid:HTC__J15.

Any idea what I can do next? Thanks man I do appreciate all your help.

Flash a "close-to-stock" custom ROM on your device and use Sunshine to S-OFF.

MaximusHD seems to work well going on discussions in the threads. Android RevolutionHD should probably also work.

Called HTC Italy to see if they know about any issues or do have any suggestion for the problem i have with the SD Card probably they do not even know for whom they are working for.....

[One (M8) General] seadersn:
true: the big sized sdcard problems are there since a long time, not to say ever. don't know which device it was but five and more years ago the best tip for sdcard firmware flashing problems was to use a small sized one like 4 or 8 gb. everyone who has these problems should try a smaller sdcard first (if available, or buy one for flashing only; ok, only interesting for flashing addicts :D but it helped almost every time).
[One (M8) General] 10rdan:
Interesting.

What is classed as big sd card ?

It worked for me using a Samsung 32gb, class 10 card.

Sent from my HTC One_M8
[One (M8) General] seadersn:
i think it started at 16gigs, an 8gb should be fine. iirc sdcards storage technology with 16gb or 32gb begins to differ from 8gb or 16gb technology, like sdhc and sdxc for cards bigger than 64gb.

my 32gb sdcard works well, too. production processes are better and smaller nowadays (40nm vs 22nm for example), so chips are smaller too and can hold more gb now w/o special techniques like mentioned sdxc/sdhc.

this post reflects my 'technical knowledge' some years ago, i didn't inform myself about anything phone, pc or anything related to that a long time now. have simply no time.

so, it may not be correct ;)

I changed the CID to what I had before HTC__32 and MID to european one. I placed the RUU(last link in the OP) and renamed it 0P6BIMG.zip , booted in HBOOT but get the messages No image / No image or Wrong Image. then It sais Update Failed. What did I do wrong?

I am s-off and running on a Full GPE RUU(with root and twrp)

Thanks !
[One (M8) General] EddyOS:
What does it do when you use RUU mode? Also, did you flash the FW package to get the right partitions first?
[One (M8) General] sherbibv:
I tried to flash the Sence RUU via SDCard method. And It's checking the zip, and it says no image / Wrong image or no image. And At top it says Fail .. smtng(I don't remember exactly). But afterwards asks me if I want to update and I hit volume down for No because I don't want to risk it.

No I have not flashed the firmware. I tried to follow a tutorial on how to revert, and that guy flashed a firmware "1.54.401.5-W_Splash" and after that he enters Recovery and the Stock Sence recovery appears. I tried that and when I entered recovery an android with an exclamation mark appeared and I couldn't do anything. So I went and flashed the RUU again to fix the phone because it was unusable.
[One (M8) General] EddyOS:
Yeah, you have to flash a new Sense ROM after you flash the FW and then TWRP to go back to Sense. Try using the Sense RUU by doing the following:

1. Flash the FW ZIP in the 'Revert to Sense' thread

2. Once flashed, go back to the bootloader to make sure you're on the stock white HTC one and not the black GPe one and change the CID to 11111111 (purely to make life easier)

3. Once in the bootloader, go back into RUU mode and flash the 3.28.401.9 RUU ZIP and see what happens

---------- Post added at 01:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 PM ----------

OK, I just tried the above and it doesn't work - you get a header error and it won't flash

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:09 PM ----------

OK, I flashed the 3.28.401.9 FW package, powered down the phone and then put the RUU ZIP on my SD card as 0P6BIMG.zip and it's flashing OK - the message saying it can't find a file is from the previous 0P file it's looking for
[One (M8) General] sherbibv:
So to be more exact the order of the steps is:power off the phone, boot in RUU fastboot, flash the firmware 3.28.401.9 in RUU fastboot, and after that put the stock RUU in sdcard and flash in hboot?

Also I would like to deeply thank you for your tine and help. You don't see such people that often.
[One (M8) General] EddyOS:
OK, coming from full GPe conversion...

1. Flash the FW package in the 'Return to Sense' thread in rebootRUU mode

2. Once flash is complete, use the command fastboot reboot-bootloader to go back to the bootloader

3. Once in the bootloader use the command fastboot oem writecid 11111111 to set Super CID if you're not already using it

4. Power down the phone

5. Insert a microSD card with the RUU ZIP on it renamed as just 0P6BIMG.zip

6. Turn the phone on whilst holding volume down to get into HBOOT. It should see the card and start to check for the file

7. When prompted to begin the update select yes and wait (it took a while)

8. Once finished, reboot the phone

9. Job done!
