Using your toolkit, I was able to Unlock the bootloader. Now I am unable to get the toolkit to flash the recovery or get Root status. I have the USB Debugging on. What can I do?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Do it manually.

Download TWRP from here. Rename it to recovery.img and place it into your fastboot folder.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Then download the SuperSU.zip from here.

Transfer it to your phone's internal storage, and flash the zip with your new custom recovery by choosing install and the SU.zip

Issue with radio after root HTC ONE M8

Hi all,

I have rooted the phone with a help of the toolkit from this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2699065

After that, wiped all, and when phone boots, network doesnt work. With *#*#4636#*#* i managed to fix the issue by turning radio off, and then turning it on. Phone then recognizes network that I use. The problem is that when I reboot the phone, I have to repeat the process with radio button. Does anyone have a clue what should I do to fix this permanent?

Ditch the toolkit and follow the advice that xunholyx gave to another in Post #34 above (for virtually the exact same question asked in Post #33).

The Toolkit hasn't been updated for a long time, and the TWRP version it tries to install is

very

obsolete. Old TWRP versions are known to have various issues (not installing properly, being one) with newer hboots. So my guess is that the old TWRP version is the problem.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
The toolkit hasn't been updated in a very long time. Its also just a needless middle-man, and all the steps are rather easy to perform "manually" without the toolkit.

Simply:

1) Unlock the bootloader via HTCDev.com (if you haven't gotten that far yet)

2) Download the latest TWRP version from here (the version included with the toolkit is horribly obsolete, and will fail on Lollipop).

3) Flash TWRP in fastboot

4) OPTION 1: If the goal is to stay on stock ROM and root: Download the latest SuperSU zip from here and flash with TWRP. The toolkit will also fail you here, as older versions of SuperSU won't work on LP.

OPTION 2: If the goal is flash a custom ROM, skip Option 1 above. Just put the desired custom ROM on the phone and flash in TWRP.

In regards to the power settings "fast boot" option (not to be confused with adb/fastboot): its correct this is no longer an option (it boots pretty fast anyway, without tricks) and therefore doesn't need to be disabled. It was never really that much of an issue, as it only prevented booting into bootloader from a "power off" condition (since it wasn't a real "power off" - just a deep sleep trick) but did not affect getting into bootloader from when "Reboot" was selected.

OTA Update?

Will i still recieve the ota update if i root it with this method?

It will change any system folder or smthing?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Nope, root doesn't prevent OTA. As long as you yourself don't modify the system partition (after root).

You also will need to revert to stock recovery to OTA.

And if its the Toolkit you are referring to, unless the software on your M8 is very old, the Toolkit won't work. See my post just above yours.

How to fix/workaround some problems

Okay so I ran into a few problems but I was able to fix them all. Here are some fixes/workarounds that worked for me.

I would give links but I'm new to this website and I'm not allowed to.

1. The link to download the toolkit is not working.

Use this mirror link provided in the original download post.

2. The link to install HTC drivers is not working.

Download Sync Manager from HTC Website. It will download the latest drivers for you.

3. When I try to get the Token ID, my device isn't found.

Make sure you're using a USB 2.0 port (not 3.0). Also make sure the HTC Drivers are installed

4. Program gets stuck when trying to flash TWRP 2.7.0.2.

Try installing ClockWorkMod instead. Works just as well as TWRP

5. SuperSU needs to update binaries.

Google search the phrase "SuperSU update 2.46". Click on the chainfire website and download that zip file. Use your custom recovery(TWRP or ClockWorkMod) to flash it.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
You're better of skipping the toolkit. Its hasn't been updated in a very long time, meaning most its components won't work on any M8 with remotely current software. If you are on Lollipop currently:

1) Unlock the bootloader at HTCDev.com

2) Install TWRP 2.8.7 via fastboot

3) Flash SuperSU 2.46 in TWRP

4) You have root. Drink beer.

for me i always remove not needed apps by deleting them from it's directory or using titanium backups ( great app with powerful features )

this tow apps are safe to remove ( all gapps are safe to remove )

however sense apps may effect the system so be careful with sense apps

you can always flash a stock debloated rom to have the most of the device

that's great advice,

can i flash a stock debloated rom now or will it require something else like s-off or something?

can you point me out to such a rom that's debloated and better on battery?

s-off not needed to flash a rom ( you can flash roms with s-on )

a little hard to suggest a rom ( basically you have to try all of them until you find the one that fit your usage )

do you have sprint or verizon device ??

if yes you need to find a rom supporting your device variant

if no all the roms here will work on your device
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jafferkhan:
I have an unlocked phone without any carriers
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahmed.ismael:
you need sense,GPE or AOSP/LOS ( CM )

it's a little hard to know what do you prefer

the battery life on all roms nearly the same with some additional tweaks,mods and features

take a look at the development section and read about all the available roms

https://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/development#romList

some sense and GPE roms not supported any more

I'm doing the advanced exchange, where they overnight you a new device and you send yours back. From what I read online, it's highly unlikely they'll reject my claim for the bootloader being tampered with, but with $599 on lock down I'd prefer to play it safe.

Is there a way to lock it back down if you're S-On? I tried the free S-Off method but it does not work with my phone all that's not an option.

Let me know please, or share experience if you have done the exchange like how I am and had no issues.

Go download it from http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads and follow the instructions. At the top of that page you select filter by M8, T-Mobile, USA and v4.4.3 (assuming that is all true for your phone). Look for the download link with a type of RUU.

You will download a windows .exe program. Run that on a windows PC and follow the prompts.

I found it worked better with my M8 if I put it into fastboot mode first.

I flashed the RUU but it still says RELOCKED. Was hoping it would go back to LOCKED but without S-Off I guess I can't accomplish that. I'll have to send it back as is and hope for the best.

Oddly, though, I got the replacement phone today and when I checked my account they had already refunded my $600 hold and I'm not sure why. I obviously didn't return my phone yet. I was told by the rep they would inspect the phone and if anything needed to be repaired they would deduct that from the hold and release whatever the remaining balance is back to my account.

Not sure why they'd refund me before ever inspecting (or receiving for that matter) my phone.

Maybe the credit card hold expired. I'm sure they have the card info on file in case they need to run a new charge.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fabecoool:
Hi!

I'm no dev, but I got a GT-S5690 yesterday from someone who no longer needed it. I just ordered a replacement battery, and I was looking to find some custom ROM for it, but it seems there hasn't been much interest in developping ROMs for this device. Too bad, because even if the specs are not top notch, the fact that it is IP67 makes it a great companion for all kinds of activities (I'm fond of kayaking).

There seems to be lots of people wanting CM for that phone. I'm just afraid it might be impossible, otherwise I guess someone would already have published a zip file to flash.

Anyway, here's what I've found:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2441912&page=2

I might give it a try when I have some free time. But I will first have to learn how to compile CM. It goes without saying that if I get it to work, I'll share the file.

Let me know if you find something on your side!

Rought translation of post #79 which did the testing part before releasing the ROM.

Due to the high demand they rush it out, there are a couple of minor problems

1. Faster. When comparing with the stock WM6 the cooked WM6 start menu and windows respond faster.

2. Test with 15 software and they all work.

3. The add-on programs all work except:

TCMP can't play the new WMV pro codec; however, "that can be fix by copying the wmadecoder.dll wmvdecoder.dll from your WM5 windows and replace it." You can download the codec from the following post

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=290176

4. Camera works good, but they forgot to map it to the hardware button which you can do it under settings.

It's faster without the need to OC although they have installed more apps in the ROM.

This is just an initial release, they will release the update with more built-in free software (if requested) and/or bug fix if requires.

Disclaimer: I am not the one who cooked it. You can report the bug and I might pass them a long in VIETPDA forum. I am not responsible if you brick your device. I am just the messenger :)
