Is your backup 3.33.75.1 ? You can find its recovery on post #4

When you can't find the right recovery, do OTA checking, download OTA select install later.

Copy OTA zip from internal storage/download folder to PC. Extract it with 7-zip, you'll find revovery.img inside firmware.zip <-- this is the recovery.img that you need.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Maybe because you restore the India version backup that you found in one HTC M8 eye thread in Q&A section ?

What you can do for now is get the right software version for your device.

First - install the TWRP backup @@Hazem99922 posted here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=62973038&postcount=211

This will get your software version to 1.82.401.7

Later after you successfully run this software version, you have a choice to manually update your firmware to 1.82.401.7 - I will tell how only after you try the first one - restore 1.82.401.7 backup

Make a backup of your current ROM first before you restore that backup
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cucaracha512:
Backup restored, system settings says version is 1.82.401.7

What should I do next?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Download this HTC signed 1.82.401.7 firmware.zip - xxxx

Put your device on bootloader/fastboot mode then relock bootloader with command

fastboot oem lock

Then follow these steps :

fastboot reboot-bootloader (to make sure you're on fastboot mode)

fastboot oem rebootRUU (to put the device in RUU mode)

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (flashing the firmware.zip)

You'll see : FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)

repeat fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (to complete firmware installation)

fastboot reboot-bootloader

Check your bootloader now written OS - 1.82.401.7

Now you can reunlock bootloader with your unlock_code.bin that you got from HTCDev to install your custom recovery (optional)

Note : reunlocking bootloader will wipe your data - make a backup of your files on internal storage to PC first (like photos, musics & etc)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cucaracha512:
I'm not afraid of wiping all data, but I'm afraid of relocking - is it safe or I can totally brick my amazing phone? :)

No .. relocking won't brick it. You have a S-On device .. security is On.

S-Off usually easily can be bricked when flash a wrong file.

Just follow the instruction one by one ... should be fine.

Or just leave it as it is now until next OTA.

Next OTA will fix your bootloader.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You have a problem there. Your radio is too low version.

I believe this happened because you restore 4.16.410.10 when you have 3.28.401.9 firmware and updated to 4.16.401.13 and radio was not updated because there is no radio in 4.16.401.13

I don't know how to help you. You can try to install HTC Signed 4.16.401.10 firmware.zip - you need to search for it but don't know whether this will work.

Or you can try to restore 3.28.401.9 backup then do the update again - most likely will work.

No guarantee this will work but you can try.

Repeat the process, restore 3.28.401.9 backup and recovery, check and do OTA to 4.16.401.10.

When done, check radio version change to 1.25 or not.

If radio don't change, no other way than to S-Off your device to correct it. Else you have to accept there is no wifi until the next available OTA.

2. Can i root it? i still want to receive the updates(all of them). i will just leave it unrooted as i don't want the hassle, at least for now. And i heard 6.0 is coming... so, that's just perfect!

No need. i think i ****ed up in the process. At one point it asked me fro supersu(in twrp) i didn't have patience and just swiped to install. When it first booted it told me that supersu hasn't been fully installed. After that, done the software updates(still didn't have patience to do ALL the updates before that). When in bootloader it said 4.19.61.3... tho it wouldn't start up. At that point (when i first left the reply here) i started redoing the process. Only thing was my pc couldn't see the backups(nor internal, nor sd). i got the sd out of the phone and did everything manually. Now i'm back with the phone working but i need it.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You have a very old firmware.

I suggest to relock bootloader and install RUU rather than restore a backup and you need to do too many OTA downloads and installations to get the updated one.

Download 4.16.401.10 RUU here : http://androidruu.com/?developer=M8

Copy/make backup all your important files in internal storage (like photos, musics, movies & etc) to PC because RUU will wipe everything on your phone.

Boot to fastboot then relock bootloader with command fastboot oem lock

Right click the RUU and select run as administrator

Follow the instructions

Once done .. check OTA and update to 4.16.401.13

Then to re root or to install any custom ROM, re unlock bootloader with HTCDev unlock_code.bin

then install TWRP 2.8.7.0

What you need : usb 2.0 & latest HTC USB drivers installed. If not sure, download HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx

install it as it will install the latest HTC USB driver then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the driver

Incorrect file linked in VODAP001 backups?

(I can't quote the URL links directly as I'm a new member)

Thanks for the great thread. My phone has been rooted and S-OFF since July last year but was left pretty standard otherwise as no time to play or properly understand this stuff. I've now successfully used this post and other xda threads to bring my old UK Vodafone M8 (CID=VODAP001) back to stock recovery with stock Nandroid backup on 4.4.2. Then I've run 4x OTA updates to bring the device to Android 5.01 (SW 4.19.161.3).

I now wanted to re-root the device but want to have the stock files in readiness for future OTAs in case more become available and I need to revert to stock again. The link above for the 4.19.161.3 Vodafone UK stock backup works, but it points to a Megadownload site for 4.20.631.3_ckpv5.zip.

Is this a mistake in the link or am I able to use the stock 4.20.631.3 twrp backup in conjunction with the 4.19.161.3 stock recovery to get back to Lollipop 5.01 stock?

Alternatively, as I have a working fully loaded personal 4.4.2 backup (rooted 1.54.161.10) is it better to just revert to that if new OTAs become available (ie. restore my backup, then load a stock twrp 4.4.2 backup and stock recovery as I've just done, then go through all the upgrades (plus new ones) again?)
