Hi,

It's looks like HTC E8 India have Lollipop RUU, from ir-file.com shown as below screenshot :

picture uploading

If anyone have account on this server, perhaps we can tested.
[HTC One E8] DutchDanny:
File is not there anymore
[HTC One E8] RapidFly:
the file still there..
[HTC One E8] Silver.Shadow:
I'm glad to see that yes, the update for this device is under development at least. Hoping it comes by next month at least.

And that it's pushed for people with 1.25.720.3 software number too. We haven't got the 1.26.720.x yet. :/
[HTC One E8] lawandroid:
Well, I tried that also. I flashed succesfully ruu with locked bootloader. But unfortunately the same error still shows up when I try update to lollipop.

Any other solution maybe?

Thanks.
[HTC One E8] Eiad Ajam:
try to flash lollipop ruu for your software number

https://mega.co.nz/#!zVhkAAKJ!ay5S_osec1I8uDG9h2AMCILJw5kPfd-ib54MvRNh-f4

flash it with relocked bootloader

good luck :)
[HTC One E8] lawandroid:
Thank you very much. Finally I have lollipop installed. Everything went just fine.

Could you please help me to root my phone now?

Thanks.
[HTC One E8] Eiad Ajam:
good to hear that !

you have first to unlock your bootloader

then flash this recovery

https://dl.twrp.me/e8/twrp-2.8.7.0-e8.img.html

flash it using command

fastboot flash recovery recoverynamehere.img

after that log into the recovery and select reboot device

it will tell you that your device is not rooted

choose to root your device and then you'll find root app in your device
[HTC One E8] lawandroid:
Thank you very much. Successfully fully rooted.

Would I get future OTA updates?

If not, could you please provide link to follow new releases for my device.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One E8] Eiad Ajam:
No problem

Here you can find your device's ruu

1.Home screen keeps rotating .

2.Car mode become activated from nowhere.

I did some digging and found that one m8 had the same issues in past and some Other E8 users are also facing the same issues.

I performed following steps to get rid of these bugs but no success.

1.Car app uninstall

2.clear cache

3.Safe mode reboot

4.Hard reset.

My device : One E8(M8sd)

Unlocked boot loader

TWRP recovery

Status : Rooted.

Thanks In Advance.

I rooted my HTC one E8 dual SIM India a week ago and yesterday I got security update (stagefright) , I'm looking for ways to flash OTA without losing root access, I tried 'flashify' app, but I think I'm doing it wrong.

And if it's not possible to do it without losing root, I'd root again but where can I find stock recovery for my E8?

Current software number:- 2.33.720.4
[HTC One E8] Eiad Ajam:
take a backup of your system and boot only

and transfer your important data

do a full wipe, then restore your backup and your data
[HTC One E8] kunalol2:
I did the full wipe but problem still persists.

I flashed Dolby zip just now and problem is seem to be gone .but I know it's gonna come back after some time.

It's kind of annoying .

can you make a backup for your recovery? current version is 2.33.707.3 i'm using Dual SIM E8
[HTC One E8] Eiad Ajam:
you have to unlock bootloader

1. Unlock your bootloader

http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader

rigsiter and choose to unlock your bootloader

you may watch this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU7vi388dMk

2. Flash custom recovery

- download this TWRP recovery:

https://dl.twrp.me/e8/twrp-2.8.7.0-e8.img

then put your phone in fastboot mode ( power off device then hold volume down and power it on then choose fastboot ).

- make sure you put the recovery in the fastboot file (you get it from htc or download ot here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B5LDnn44r6-JNFJfZFVtZGN4clE/view?usp=sharing )

- flash it using command

fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.0-e8.img

3. boot your device in fastboot mode and choose recovery

choose to reboot in recovery

it will tell you that your device is not rooted

swipe to flash root

and you are done !
[HTC One E8] yourmate:
word of caution though as if you do this you WILL lose your warranty (not may, you will)

I had a problem with my speaker and HTC refused to help free of charge as my bootloader is unlocked - don't ask me how these two things are related it's beyond my understanding :mad:

so I switched to a G3 after more than a decade of using HTC devices...
[HTC One E8] Eiad Ajam:
ya sure they tell you when you unlock it that you will lose your warranty

i think unlocking the bootloader give you access to all of your device (with s-off)

so they are not responsible anymore about what you are doing to it

only htc do this

other manufactures don't ..
[HTC One E8] yourmate:
they don't

the wording is "you MAY lose" - there is a difference

and I'm still not convinced that by installing an EU ROM to a Chinese device I ****ed up the speaker ;)
[HTC One E8] Eiad Ajam:
is there a speaker difference !

good to know that

what about your g3

i don't like lg software

[HTC One E8] doesilver:
I'm from Egypt and I own the M8sd single sim variant, software version: 1.05.401.1 (Kitkat), haven't received Lollipop OTA yet. I was wondering if there's anyone with the same variant had received the update?

Also, I've gone through this entire thread and was curious about other E8 owners' comments about HTC not adding a native file manager, mine came with a native file manager out of the box that grants access to phone files (but not /system), SD card as well as USB sticks (I bought the phone brand new 4 months ago, not used nor rooted)
[HTC One E8] william tanaya:
that's really weird.. HTC's native file manager only worked with lolipop. I tried installing it when my phone is still kitkat and it doesn't work.

are you sure it's 1.05.401.1 not 2.05.401.1?
[HTC One E8] doesilver:
Positive, check screenshots.
[HTC One E8] william tanaya:
that's really weird... to be honset i don't even know what's wrong with it.

They say here that m8 and m9 will receive it before end of the year.

Considering the last update.. I say we will get it around april or may.

But then again. I won't be surprised if we get it around 2nd half of 2016.

Need help to get lollipop

Hi, guys, i am new to all this. I rooted my e8 (m8sn) single sim variant with the help of all you. But now i need to lollipop and by looking through different threads it seems like i have to unroot my phone and then flash the ota update. But i am not sure what to do. It would be great if someone would give me instructions on how to get the latest ota update. P.s There is no custom rom, its just unlocked and rooted thats all.

Hey there,

I've HTC one E8 india m8sd,rooted,unlocked boot loader.The thing is I don't have clean twrp backup of my stock Rom running on lollipop,I rooted it after getting p lollipop.Since marshmallow is hitting devices,should I wait for someone to share clean twrp backup?I guess ,in this way I will save efforts.

THE THING IS I HAVE ONE UPDATE LONGING FROM MONTHS (SECURITY UPDATE).SO IS IT FINE TO UPADTE VIA MARSHMALLOW AND SKIP THAT UPDATE?

ONE LAST QUESTION IS ,MY DEVICE IS ROOTED ,DO I HAVE TO UNROOT IT BEFORE APPLYING MARSHMALLOW TWRP BACKUP?

PLEASE DO REPLY.

THANX IN ADVANCE.
[HTC One E8] sanijsnj:
I had written a thread about this.. it might help you.

http://xdaforums.com/one-e8/general/fix-s-devices-bootloop-ota-update-t3206840

I don't recommend you going this way if you're not an advanced user tho.

also marshmallow is buggy.. wifi doesn't work... I downgraded mine. I have the m8sw china unicom varient.
[HTC One E8] kunalol2:
Hell yeah,I was searching for same ,I have read this ,way back,5-6 months ago.Well,I can perform those operations ,as I am definitely not a novice.

I've heard a lot about boot loader.Is it fine keep it unlocked?

I will save your thread until mm hits india and will give it a try if somebody doesn't share clean twrp backup.

Thanx for reply buddy.

I've read on Twitter that Marshmallow OTA erases all the data .Is that true or that was just for the sake of precaution?
[HTC One E8] sanijsnj:
Well I never had any trouble upgrading from an unlocked bootloader... I've noticed that OTA updates often causes error report because of an old stock recovery.. So I would recommend to flash the latest recovery from the firmware.zip in the downloaded OTA package.

MM OTA update comes in 2 part.. An interim update which prepares the phone for update.. You can flash the recovery from that package.. After updating you will be able to download the MM update which is about 1.08Gb

It doesn't erase your personal files or settings but it does remove old app which does not support the new API23. Still it's good practice to have a backup to be on the safe side :laugh:
[HTC One E8] kunalol2:
Tried your method. Performed each and every step without violation.Everything went fine.But when I flashed kernel zip,aroma installer said it's installed perfectly and twrp said unsuccessful .well,I still moved on .Then I stucked on boot loader mode.Managed to get past that and flashed ptt.zip successfully.There was no red sign showing that the zip isn't flashed successfully but instead I got bootloop.I waited for 20 minutes .But it wasn't getting past that HTC one TM logo .So I flashed twrp and restored twrp backup.

I guess I've to wait for clean twrp backup .:(

Any guess,what might have gone wrong?

I've xposed installer etc apks and I've made few changes .

I was really happy that When zip got flashed .

:confused:
[HTC One E8] sanijsnj:
Probably the custom kernel is not 100% compatible with your variant of the phone.. Were you able to boot up the phone after flashing the custom kernel and unroot as i described in my thread?

Also the link to the kernel has been updated, it's version 3.5 now. i was using version 3.3 and it did not cause any errors or bootloop. I've attached the one I had used. You might wanna give it a try. But it will be at your own risk.

If you still experience bootloop after having flashed this one.. Then probably it's something in the stock ROM which has been modified.. probably by xposed.
[HTC One E8] kunalol2:
Well,yes.I rebooted successfully after flashing that 3.5 updated version.I stucked in boot loader after flashing boot.img (screen was frozen and laptop wasn't detecting device.)All the next steps were as per tutorial.I got bootloop after flashing OTA .At the very end.
[HTC One E8] sanijsnj:
it looks like something modified in your system is causing this... you're gonna need an unrooted stock twrp backup then, cause it's gonna be hard finding out the reason of this bootloop and there's the risk of hard bricking.
[HTC One E8] mt99ta:
hello everyone i have htc one e8 m8sn my device did not recieve any updates since i bought it is still running on the original software 4.4.2 software number 1.05.401.1

is there is any way i can install updates for lollipop manually or any other method

Also, some other reassuring news:

https://mobile.twitter.com/LlabTooFeR/status/573858085783076866?p=v

I don't know when, but E8 is slated to get Sense 7. :D
[HTC One E8] william tanaya:
Awesome. Hopefully they roll it out the same time with lolipop update
[HTC One E8] Silver.Shadow:
If that happens, the Lollipop update gets delayed by at least 7-8 months. Because Sense 7 comes with M9 first, when it's launched next month, then M8, etc etc.

We shouldn't get too ahead of ourselves. :)
[HTC One E8] william tanaya:
You're correct my good sir. But one can hope for the best.

Although I'm not sure if sense 7 is that much better than sense 6.

anyway. Have you guys heard of the dot view 2.0?

If not. Here it is

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ircZoqveuA
[HTC One E8] Silver.Shadow:
For starters, Sense 7 has one of the best theming engines seen on an Android skin ever. Also, the options to customize the nav bar buttons. That in itself makes it better compared to Sense 6. My personal opinion is HTC did a great thing here by not totally overhauling Sense, and coming with an incremental upgrade to Sense 6, which was anyway awesome.

While hoping the best, I'm glad our phone will not be forgotten by HTC and will get this update, at least I hope it does. But it's not gonna be hefore the second half of the year. :)

Yes, the dot view two looks cool. I still prefer my first dot view though, because 2.0 makes it bulkier. That being said, I do hope that we get the software update which activates those updates, i.e., games and the rolling text, on our phones. :D
[HTC One E8] william tanaya:
actually. the dot breaker is already out in the play market. but from what I read in the review, it's still in early beta stage.

some people who tried it (using m8) said it won't open..
[HTC One E8] Silver.Shadow:
They'll make sure it doesn't, at least before they want it to. So :D

[HTC One E8] Silver.Shadow:
No, technically, that isn't even HTC. Just a trusted source. :)
[HTC One E8] sundayradio:
The news is quite trustworthy. Same as the weatherman predicting it'll rain within the next few months
[HTC One E8] buggerman:
Honestly, I'd recommend waiting before updating to the Lollipop build, even when it officially comes out. After rooting I felt no need to update (as the only thing missing really, was the sdcard writing permissions). ART still needs further optimisation. All my friends using Lollipop on their Nexus 5 have said the same thing.

After using the test build for 2 days, I can safely say that the update is at least a month away. The test build was released around mid January, and it is plagued with crazy bugs, like low storage space warnings when 6 GB is free, data connection stability, Wifi problems, etc.
[HTC One E8] DutchDanny:
I would say the same wait for the ota for your device. Get back to stock and flash the ota.

Then your device will work properly and custom roms will pop-up.

[HTC One E8] william tanaya:

Android 5.1 is out

Google released android 5.1 yesterday. One of the features added as mentioned in changelog is multiple SIM support, Was this not available in any lollipop versions before 5.1 and as our phone supports dual SIM, will we get 5.0 first or we directly go to 5.1?

Here is the link for changelog of Android 5.1

[HTC One E8] jayesh:
It only works when networks support it universally. Until then it's a moot point.
[HTC One E8] Kartik1807:
Its like, ICS didn't have bluetooth 4.0 native support, but HTC One X was released with ICS and had bluetooth 4.0. That feature was added by HTC !! Android doesn't have native support for dual sim, but manufacturers add that support. From 5.1, that support will be natively present in Android :) :)
