[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
I don't know anything about this sort of thing. Got a "new" unlocked unbranded HTC One M8 off eBay in the UK. Unable to update it OTA due to 'variant software detected contact HTC etc etc'.

After my total newbie investigation this seems to be because the CID has been changed to a supercid of 11111111. I believe this is due to it being a T-Mobile US phone originally and this is the way that the seller's supplier unlocked and unbranded it in order for it to be used in the UK. I came to this conclusion due to the model ID which appears to be 0P6B13000 which I believe is a T-Mobile US ID. The phone also appears to be S-Off which supports my very ignorant theory. I have included these details from fastboot:

C:\mini-sdk>fastboot getvar all

(bootloader) version: 0.5

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000

(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.24.21331147A1.09G

(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT

(bootloader) commitno-bootloader: 3aa067db

(bootloader) hbootpreupdate: 11

(bootloader) gencheckpt: 0

all: Done!

I'm not someone who mucks about with rooting and anything else like that on my phones and don't really know anything about how to fix this. I wonder if changing the CID number to a UK version would help but I don't know what the original one is (ebay seller is no help) and am unsure if simply changing this would make a difference or just cause an inappropriate update to install wrong and brick the phone.

I would like to be able to use OTA updates. But do not want it to be full of branded network bloatware. I am not wanting to make it rooted and shove custom ROMS on it that don't look like it would if it was a totally stock version. Can anyone give me some advice on this issue?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Your device is definitely not a T-MOB USA.

The product m8_ul show that is a Intl GSM device.

Software version & MID 0P6B13000 show the previous owner convert the getvar info to Dev Edition.

What's the software version that you see in settings-about ? If it is 4.16.1540.8 should not be a problem for OTA to proceed but if it is not 4.16.1540.8, MID is the problem where you have that 'variant software detected contact HTC etc etc'.

CID is not the problem.

So you need to decide what you want the device to be .. a EU WWE ?

If yes, first thing to do is to change the MID to 0P6B10000

See how-to : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2708581

Then run EU WWE RUU - 4.16.401.10 - you can get it here : http://androidruu.com/?developer=M8

Once done you will have one OTA to 4.16.401.13 and should not be a problem for future OTA

Good luck and good night.

If you have more questions, I'll check tomorrow. Or maybe someone else will assist you later.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
Thanks for the assistance. Are we positive the model number does not indicate a T Mobile origin. When I googled the model number this seems to be what is indicated. I want the phone to be an unbranded unlocked phone that I can use in the UK. Is this what that ROM will give me?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
I'll agree that the product ID of m8_ul can be T-Mob US (or also Euro or Australia), which also agrees with the model ID (MID) of 0P6B13000. See here: http://droider.eu/2014/09/20/htc-one-m8-models/

Although it should be noted that the MID in getvar can be hacked/modified. Does it have a model number printed on the back of the phone?

Its exactly what you want. Although it should be noted, its not just a ROM, but a full image, that will re-write all partitions on the phone, including hboot, radio, and much more. The RUU will wipe the phone, so backup any personal data beforehand (if you've put anything worthwhile on the phone already).

---------- Post added at 03:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 PM ----------

That is actually the MID for T-Mobile US. Dev Edition is 0P6B120

I assume he is getting "variant software detected" since the main version does not match the MID.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
There are two CiD/MID for Dev Edition

CID BS_US001 & BS_US002

MID 0P6B12000 & 0P6B13000
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
It does indeed have a model number printed on the back of the phone. Sorry I had not know this was a thing. The printed model number is OP6B700 which differs from what fastboot outputs.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
Just ignore those for now.

Most important is what you want your device running ROM.

You're in UK.. so a EU WWE is better for you.

Do what I advise earlier, change MID to EU then run RUU.

EDIT:

Don't do anything yet. Tell us what's the software version in settings - about.

I really hope that OP6B700 is only cover replacement.

OP6B700 AFAIK is a Sprint MID and usually you can't convert it but unlikely because it's a m8_ul

Edit 2 : I remember seeing this OP6B700 before but not a sprint device.

Can you check whether it's a 2.5 GHz or 2.3 GHz device ..

OP6B700 with 2.5Ghz is a Middle East device.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
Okay, further update: the software is 4.16.1540.8. You earlier said that this should be okay to run the OTA. Does this muddy the waters? Also I thought super CID 11111111 meant you were no longer able to run OTA. Is this wrong. Multiple websites seem to confirm this?

To answer your recent questions, CPU-Z app reports a Snapdragon 2.27 GHz.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
No .. SuperCID never stop OTA but wrong MID does.

I made plenty of nandroid only by change of MID and SuperCID since I got my device.

You can click link in my signature to see them.

As this is most probably a convert device, you need MID 0P6B12000 to proceed OTA from 4.16.1540.8 to 4.17.1540.9

Still EU WWE is better choice for you but that only a suggestion
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
Okay, I will change MID to 0P6B12000
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
When I attempted to change the MID as instructed via the page you linked. I got the following

/system/bin/sh: su: not found

127|shell@htc_m8:/ $ echo -ne '\x30\x00\x50\x00\x36\x00\x42\x00\x31\x00\x32\x00\x30\x00\x30\x00\x30' | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=16384

When I attempted to verify the change it hadn't worked. Presumably because it was denied....?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You need root to do it. But if you root your device, you'll have problem with OTA.

What you can do :

Install TWRP 2.8.7.0

Boot to recovery

Mount system

In command prompt - type adb shell

then the command to change MID

Select reboot - bootloader

Install stock 4.16.1540.8 recovery.img

(You can get it from my thread - post #4)

Reboot

Do OTA
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Interesting, I know the 120 MID applies to both AT&T and Dev Ed. I wasn't aware the T-MOB MID (130) could also by Dev Ed.

So:

0P6B12000 can be AT&T or Dev ED

0P6B13000 can be T-Mob US or Dev ED

Do the CIDs correspond to the above (such as BS_US001 corresponds to MID 0P6B12000, BS_US002 to MID 0P6B13000)? I was aware there were two Dev Ed CIDs, but never knew why (such as MIDs that correspond with them).

---------- Post added at 09:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:01 AM ----------

I'd say its very unlikely its the Sprint variant, to have been able to flash the Dev Ed 1540 firmware number and radio on it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
This is what we can see in android-info.txt for 4.16.1540.8

modelid: 0P6B12000
modelid: 0P6B13000
cidnum: BS_US001
cidnum: BS_US002
mainver: 4.16.1540.8
btype:1
aareport:1
hbootpreupdate:3

and it get weird with 4.17.1540.9 where it has another CID HTC__017

modelid: 0P6B12000
modelid: 0P6B13000
cidnum: BS_US001
cidnum: BS_US002
cidnum: HTC__017

Yeah .. I believe each CID is correspond to one MID because there two version of Dev Edition

BS_US001 - 0P6B12000 - SIM unlocked Dev Edition (bootloader is locked)

BS_US002 - 0P6B13000 - SIM and bootloader unlocked Dev Edition
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
This is starting to get beyond my comfort zone. But I'm getting pestered every 4 hours to download this update and it covers up what I'm doing at the time. I'm happy to try and install the Europe version as you suggested and attempt to "fix" everything including model ID and maybe CID as well? How would I go about doing that? Please bear in mind I haven't done this sort of thing.

Or should I try just installing the Dev 4.17.1540.9 version from here... http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/ Would this fix my issue?
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
You can give that RUU a try. It's either it will work or it will give Model ID error (same as Variant error that you have now). If it works, then it's good.

To change MID there is no other way as it need a rooted device (that's clearly stated on that thread)

As a workaround not to root the device, and your device already bootloader unlocked use the TWRP way as I mentioned above.

Either it is for Dev Edition RUU or EU WWE RUU, the procedure still the same, except you can skip the part - install stock recovery image because RUU will replace everything on your device.

So for RUU:

Install TWRP 2.8.7.0

Boot to recovery

Mount system

In command prompt - type adb shell

then the command to change MID

Select reboot - bootloader

Run RUU

On another note, consider your self lucky to have a S-Off device. Some cases that I see before, they have same error like yours but unfortunately the device were re flagged S-On. Most of them can't or not willing to spend another USD25 to S-Off their device to fix all the problem.

On your case, you only need to change MID to fix your problem

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
Not on topic, but here:

Download this, rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip (or just delete everthing before that) and place it onto your extSD.

Boot into bootloader and select hboot (if it doesn't automatically).

Follow the prompts (vol up to flash, power to reboot)

There you go. TWRP 2.8.7.0

Make sure to delete the file from your extSD, otherwise every time you boot to bootloader it'll try to update again.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theonetruewill:
I found that the 4.17.1540.9 rom found on HTC's website finally worked on the fifth attempt and has solved my problem. For any future posters who have the same problem the 4.17.1540.9 version of the rom is a bit odd to find. On their main rom site (http://www.htc.com/us/support/rom-downloads.html) they only list the 4.16.1540.8 version. If you click download from that link it will give you that version. If however, you click view - it will take you to the 4.17.1540.9 versions page. God knows why. I haven't found another way to get the 4.17.1540.9 version. The 4.17.1540.9 version can be found here http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8/news/ with download link http://dl3.htc.com.s3.amazonaws.com...G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_446501_signed_2.exe

Here are all the feature changes I noticed, including little things:

–You can no longer select text in an input field by double tapping a word; now must long press to select.

–Volume buttons work normally in the Messaging app (previously they changed the font size)

–You can't grab the scrollbars on the sides of most apps to quick scroll (this was a feature that worked for most apps in 5.0.2)

–Obviously, Samsung Pay

–A new app from AT&T or Samsung: Games (which can be uninstalled entirely)

–Apps don't reload immeidately after you switch to a different app via the Recent button and then switch back. However, they do still reload on occasion, like with Chrome.

–Recents button responds ever so slightly faster (the lag is probably inherent because of the multitasking feature)

–Live streaming is a new mode in Camera, to automatically upload to YouTube

–I'm pretty sure the Messaging app settings layout got tweaked but I can't remember how

–I'm possibly wrong, but I think the font settings in Display apply more universally now. Previously I had it set to "very small" but the font in Gmail emails didn't seem to be affected. Now, Gmail emails are small like other text.

–I've heard of the option to change the parallax effect in TouchWiz launcher, but I'm using the GNL and am too lazy to check TW

Its a reg fix for activesync that sorts out the activesync pass thru problem

If you are using ActiveSync 4.2 and have a problem with Desktop Pass-through it may be caused by a Layered Service Provider (LSP) that use the Windows TCP/IP stack. This has been known to occur with ISA Server. The registry file LSPValue.reg will reverse this setting. Microsoft and the Pocket PC OEM does not support users that edit the registry.
