[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndM14:
Collection of stock backus Go there download the nandroid backup for your device(1.54.709.12) and the stock recovery also on post 1.

Restore the nandroid backup for your device with the custom recovery(It was made with TWRP so use TWRP) flash back the stock recovery and just follow all the OTA updates to get to the latest 4.4.4 and you'll also be ready for 5.0 when it launches(whenever).

You literally did no searching for your problem at all.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vang2k:
I am sure firewater should work on your device. I just S-OFF and gained superCID. Your device is basically a GSM phone. The only advantage of doing OTA updates are that you will be getting updates a tad faster. The disadvantage is it might brick your phone with wrong firmware/device ID. My advice would be to try to get S-OFF again. If your phone is rooted and bootloader unlocked go ahead and flash a custom recovery such as TWRP. If you do no know how to flash your recovery you can download an app called Flashify and it will flash TWRP for you via google play store app.

Once you get TWRP recovery you can reboot into recovery and simply do a system restart. It will ask if you want to install superSU. Make sure you have superSU installed. follow the instructions from here http://firewater-soff.com/instructions/ I recommend being on a stock sense ROM. Make sure you have debugging enabled via developer option and enabling unknown devices. Once you push firewater to your phone and allow superSU app to grant permission you SHOULD get s-OFF.

Once you get s-OFF you can change your phone version ID to superCID via bootloader+adb command "fastboot oem writecid 1111111" After that you can just flash over any firmware you want. I say wait for devs to get official gpe 5.0 dumps and it'll be way better than an OTA rom.

IF your phone ever gets into a bootloop or frozen reboot it via holding down volume up+down+power. The phone will reboot.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
People should stop telling people that firewater should work for sure on certain devices ! It's never a guarantee !!!

It's a try and see ! Perform firewater on the stock rom and stock recovery, if it's not working you definitely need sunshine

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
If you are unable to use sushine to s-off due to Paypal, just return to stock ROM and recovery to get the OTAs as stated above.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armin0131:
Wouldn't integrity of the files in the system and data partitions be a problem?!

Cause when you unlock some apps which are in data partition get deleted.

and when the rom is rooted and im guessing the nandroid backup is rooted...

the system partition is changed.

please correct me if i'm wrong

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BerndM14:
Are you talking about system changes preventing OTA updates? If so, being rooted has nothing to do with it, it won't prevent an OTA from installing. It'll remove root from the device in which case you'll have to re-root(if you want) but it won't prevent the OTA from installing.

Besides as far as I know, unless stated differently, the backups in the thread are all unrooted.

Guess you should have made a backup of your device before you messed around. That way you would have known for a fact it was "untouched" .

Just download the backup provided in the link, flash a stock recovery and do the OTA's. You can even go through the small effort ahead of time and "unroot" it just in case it was "rooted" which I doubt it will be.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armin0131:
Ok what i wanna know is that are the deleted apps for example flashlight

Restored in the 1.54.709.12 backup? So no MD5 problem when i wanna OTA?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Root alone does not change system partition. Its only changes to system files you do after root that will prevent OTA.

And in theory, the stock backups in Mr Hofs collection should be made without root, I believe. Root is not needed to make a nandroid.

As far as I have seen, the couple HTC apps that are "deleted" upon bootloader unlock do not affect OTA. There are lots of folks here with unlocked bootloaders that were able to return to stock ROM and recovery and OTA.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XSL-FO:
There are some already rooted.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
One for a know fact as its stated in the download link. And it's very usable for official ota as its 100% complete. And if it bothers people it's rooted they have to read the second post too as it contains a flashable zip to delete root access. But that's not being said here because people probably don't read enough very well !

And indeed root is not needed for a nandroid backup. Only a custom recovery is enough to create one.

ooof that made me sound interesting !

:)

Cheers.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XSL-FO:
Well, la-di-da :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Ahh ... you're asking about my backup that I uploaded.

No ... nothing is deleted from backup 1.54.709.12, everything is there like the flashlight, calculator & etc. No root, no busybox... simply clean stock.

In fact, once you restore the backup with full wipe of your current ROM, you'll get the setup wizard just like when you setup the phone for the first time.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Yup, that is why I said "in theory" they should be unrooted.

I remember someone complaining of one being rooted, when its supposed to be stock.

Anyway, it doesn't matter as Mr Hofs stated. Root itself does not prevent OTA install (as long as all system files are intact).
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Of course, there is no problem that is rooted as unrooting is very easy. Being fully stock is the important part.

So yes, there should be no complains about a backup being rooted.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] armin0131:
so if i restore your backup i can ota?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Polluxus:
In general I'm satisfied with the new notification and volume system in contrary to a lot of other people here :p but I've an annoying problem with it.

Config:

- I switch to Priority mode

- Time indefinitely

- Priority interruptions only calls

- starred contacts only

- I don't have down days configured

All seams well and works as expected but at exactly midnight (00:00) Priority mode switches off and turns back to All. It is really the time that triggers it and not a set duration because it doesn't matter if turn on priority at 23:55 or at 18:00.

Anybody else with this problem and ideas what could trigger this?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Polluxus:
Solved it. It was the app Silent Time that somehow interfered with priority mode. This is an app that I used on JellyBean and KitKat but didn't configure or use on Lollipop, although I did auto-download it.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jluca98:
Hi, I have an HTC One M7 for Sprint. It is running software version 5.03.651.3 according to settings.

The hboot is version 1.57

Currently the phone is locked and s-on but there is no recovery mode installed on the phone at all. When I try to update the phone it reboots to bootloader because there is no recovery partition on the device.

I can not run a RUU because every time I do I get an error 155. I am assuming that is because the hboot is newer than the one in the RUU.

I have tried changing the mainver to the one in both RUUs that I tried but it did not work.

I am stuck and would appreciate any help if anyone has any suggestions.

Safe or not all depends, as the apk is digital signed, if it had modify or sign with a different cert then it will refuse to update directly and ask you to uninstall first

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mkara:
I was using for a long time the rom from QTek with version 2.18. The reason that I sticked so long to this rom is because its efficiency with the battery. As soon I updated to a newer AKU rom I experienced the same problem, in standby it drains much more battery than this QTek rom. Normal a night it costs about 1%, with the newer roms is dropped as soon as 20%. I searched for a reason and finally I found it. I removed the SD card and I saw the problem solved. So there must be something with the SD Card. I searched in the registery and found that the power management function for the SD Card driver is disabled. This means the sd card is always enabled and at full function (= full power).

If you like to enable the power management function of this driver change this key in the registery

HKLM/Drivers/SDCARD/ClientDrivers/Class/SDMemory_Class/DisablePowerManagement change this value to 0. And try then.

I use now WM6 and changed this value, now it is using less battery than the qtek rom.

Without this setting I was able to user Crossbow and newer AKU roms for MAX 48 hours. Normal (and now) it is 4 ~ 5 days or even more if I keep it more standby

Please tell me if this also works for you.

I, as many others, have experienced greater battery drain with the newer ROM's as of late. I'm not sure if this is what the difference was per se...but regardless...this really has helped with battery efficiency.

Does anybody know what enabling power management does?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dcdivenut:
I just tried it this AM and while it is too soon to really tell, it does seem to be making a difference but I would like to know if all it does is enable full access to the SD card, and exactly how it does this. I don't run programs off the card so that isn't a potential side effect but I wonder if it could be.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] mkara:
The powermanagement means that the driver can disable the SD card.

This is normally done when the device is in standby mode, the SD card is also shutdown.

Only what I can think what happens is that if you get the device back from standby that the sd card is not DIRECT accesible (but after a few ms).

It should not be a big deal :)

Power management is normally done on Wifi, LCD, CPU and many things.

WiFi is completely shutdown on standby because is not needed. LCD same thing. CPU is running on low frequency.

I didn't experience any problems. It is the same behaviour with the older 2.xx roms. If you used this roms and had no problem this should be work perfect.

My battery is now absolutely perfect running with this enabled. Even better than WM5
