[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
You've missed several updates (4.4.3, 5.0, and now 6.0).

You need stock ROM (never rooted), stock recovery and be on AT&T network to get OTA updates.

Even if all above is true, once you miss an update from a long time ago (for whatever reason, maybe just some glitch), it sometimes "breaks the chain" and you never get subsequent updates either.

Your best bet is to update to RUU (will wipe all data on the phone - so backup anything you want to keep

before

RUU).

Either flash Lollipop RUU 4.28.502.2 and see if the MM OTA comes through. Or RUU right to MM, but you'll need to flash the MM firmware.zip then RUU. See RUUs section in the Index thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2751432
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] c_brown93:
I am S OFF and stock ROM with stock recovery and relocked bootloader. And I would do the RUU method, but I have a Macbook and can't run .exe files obviously for RUU. I called ATT and they told me to go to Best Buy and have them update it or an ATT Service Center.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
If you look on the Index thread, you will see links for "Bootable" RUUs. The last link has Lollipop RUUs for s-off devices. This will at least get you to LP, and from there you can see if the MM update comes through.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] c_brown93:
I dont have an external SD card either to use the SD card method.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Buy one for $5. Or use the RUU exe on a friend/family member's PC. Or go to the AT&T store as HTC suggested. Those are your options.

I gave you a couple different methods. How about thinking of how to make them work; instead of excuses for them not to work?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] c_brown93:
I know. I was planning on it. I just wanted to see if there another way first. Not making excuses. Ha. But thanks for your help.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] c_brown93:
Alright new issue, I grabbed a SD card and installed the Lollipop RUU 5.0.2 via the SD card method. It worked perfect and I was successfully updated to LP. Then I checked for OTAs and they starting coming through. First OTA was for 28MB, so I downloaded it and installed it. Upon booting up it did the AT&T boot screen and then just got stuck on the HTC One screen. Any ideas? I am RUUing the LP again just to get a bootable device.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Jacky753:
I've done what you asked, it failed at first when i typed fastboot flash zip firmware.zip and then I repeat it, but it was stuck in "sending 'zip' (57092 KB)... and it was stuck there. I reconnected my phone to re-try it, but it's the same. And then, I tried on just running the RUU.exe, it is now also stuck in Updating...(1/1) Sending..... wtf is going on :(?

EDIT:

I ran CMD in Admin, finally got to run the firmware.zip twice, but now when I try to Run the RUU.exe, it keep giving me the ERROR:171 USB Connection Error... Am I not suppose to run the .exe? and just flash the 6.20 update?

EDIT 2:

I've downloaded the RUU: 6.20 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2751432 in the Offical RUU.

I ran it on Administrator. And now it's stuck on 14% in Sending.....

EDIT 3: What Am I Doing wrong :( ? here is my spec http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/help/updating-htc-one-m8-att-unlocked-phone-t3446433#post68336566

[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
Force a reboot and go to bootloader by doing the following:

1) Hold power+vol up until the phone reboots, may need to hold the buttons a minute or so before a reboot in this condition

2) When the screen goes dark to reboot (and

before

the logo screen appears again) let go of the buttons, and only hold vol down. Don't let go of vol down, until you see the bootloader screen

3) If the above fails to go to bootloader (probable results is stuck again on logo screen), you probably just got the timing wrong, either started pressing vol down too late, or let go too early. Just try steps 1 and 2 again, until you correctly go to bootloader.

Once in bootloader, tell us what it says for OS number, and also the color of text for that number (if its red, or another number in parentheses - either of these indicate an error in updating the firmware). What is indicated for OS number may dictate what RUU you can run:

If still on Lollipop OS number (4.28.502) you can still run the LP RUU.

If the OS number is now the number for MM (6.20.502) you can run the MM RUU.

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 AM ----------

RUU getting stuck while sending is a common error. RUU is very finicky. Folks often have luck just trying it again, as you've seen.

Can anyone post a at&t HTC m8 marshmellow stock backup twrp? Lost mine to a failed SD card. It would pull me out of a big pickle
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] ELEVO:
Software up to date issue

HI all, just got this M8 and it is an ATT Version. but I believe it is unlocked because I am using it with cricket.

When trying to update Android Tells me software is up to date ?

Android version 5.0.2

HTC Sense Version 6.0

Software Number 4.28.502.1

HTC SDK API Level

I am pretty sure that ATT has updated to Marshmallow by now :o/ So why can't I update? I am on wifi and 4G/LTE Could it be because I am using a Cricket Sim Card in the Phone ?

I have downloaded the RUU for Marshmallow software version 6.20.502.5. Should I continue with the Manual update ?

I believe this phone was originally purchased from ATT on May of 2016 if it makes any difference , figured I post it. since it could be a newer version of HTC M8.

Also is there a way to back up my current stock rom, without Rooting phone ? Thanks for all your help.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Jukoow:
hello, i search the backup for the 6.20.502.5 firmware

anyone got anything ? thanks !
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
If you are looking for a TWRP backup (based on your posts in another thread, linked below) it is unfortunately not that common to see TWRP backups for the AT&T variant, since RUUs are readily available.

ckpv5 gave you the best direction, install the 6.20.502.5 RUU: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=70748642&postcount=2179

RUU will wipe the phone, so backup your data accordingly, before RUU.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] Jukoow:
I just cannot s-oof because i've no money and i think it the only solution. Thanks for your help all.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] redpoint73:
You do

not

need to have s-off to run the (AT&T) RUU that is intended for your (AT&T) version.

Just relock the bootloader (fastboot oem lock), and run the RUU.

[Verizon LG V10] biknut1:
I just bought (from Craigslist) a new still in plastic V10 two weeks ago. I came across this thread shortly afterwards, so I rooted my phone and froze a few Verizon apps last weekend. When I flashed the first time, I flashed the .tot file without flashing the .kdz file, which made my phone unable to receive texts. I had to factory reset, flash .kdz, then flash .tot. Root worked fine all week, and I used Titanium to freeze most of the Verizon apps. During the past week the second screen stopped working. I read in another forum post here on xda that it sometimes freezing those apps causes the second screen to stop working, and it takes a factory reset to get it working again. Today I did a factory reset, then flashed the .11b kdz file, the the .tot root file to do that all again. Everything was going fine, but somehow in the process I started downloading the Verizon update- MM I assume. I have pulled the battery numerous times to stop it, but every time I reboot it starts up again. It says the file size is 988MB. I can't get it to stop, and I cannot get my Windows 7 computer to see the phone now with LG Up (says there is no handset connected).

Is it possible to stop the update? It is at approximately 25% now. What can I do to get my computer to see it again?

Thanks for any help!
[Verizon LG V10] biknut1:
I have it fixed, thanks anyway.
[Verizon LG V10] LASERWOLF452:
Im going to post the answer anyways.. Go to the playstore. Download link2to sd or ccleaner or any app that can freeze system files. Look for system updats. Freaze both of them and you are good to go

Since I wasn't sure what broke second screen I had unfrozen everything.

Btw Laserwolf, thanks for your video on requiring this phone. It made the process much easier being able see it done while doing it.
[Verizon LG V10] LASERWOLF452:
After studying this phone if u disabled the dqsl it will take down the second screen. Only way to fix it is to restore your phone by factory reset. If you uninstalled it. You might as well use the tot file
[Verizon LG V10] biknut1:
I'm not sure why second screen quit. But over the weekend I factory reset, then flashed. Kdz, then flashed. Tot. Back in bidness, just like was. Thanks!
[Verizon LG V10] LASERWOLF452:
No problem. Also in the picture shown here don't disable that service shown in this pic. It will mess up quick memo. And if you did just enable it.

I'm not going to make a colorful thread on this. Just going to run down the basics......

To start off, I do NOT own a Note 5. I have a S6. I built this kernel for [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION] just to see

if I could without having the device. And it was a success. It has been tested by [MENTION=1042140]tdunham[/MENTION]

personally, so I know its good to go.......

There are not alot of features. But it is very stable like stock. In the future when I have time

I will add more features and tweaks. Alot of that depends on YOU.....I built a kernel for a

device I dont have, so some appreciation will go a long ways. A simple Thank you is free,

and goes a long ways with me.......

*FEATURES*

Built with Sprint BPL1 Sources

Compiled with UBERTC 5.3 Toolchain (optimized)

Linux 3.10.101

Set to Permissive

Deep Sleep Fix

Compiled with Graphite Optimizations

21 CPU Governors

11 I/O Schedulers

Optimized I/O Read Speeds

13 TCP Congestion Algrorithms

and more......

Flashing this is pretty simple. Download the zip, go into recovery and flash. There

is no need to wipe. Modules are now built into the kernel. So all that you are flashing is a

boot.img. If for some reason when you flash and it goes back into recovery, let me

know and I will provide a different zip (has different updater-script).

Like I stated above......All I ask is some participation in my thread. A dead thread

gets no attention from me at all. I have 2 kernels and a rom to worry about besides this

thread. Other than that........Enjoy.

I was on conservative as well but I was also trying to lower the max cpu speed just to see if it made any difference at the same time. I'm not doing that anymore though, just switching governor nothing else.

You're bouncing around a lot, you were getting frequent enough reboots to be able to tell that quickly?

At some point, we might need to establish a baseline for testing criteria if it continues, like everyone using the same app and only a specific set of changes otherwise its just going to be too difficult to tell what the problem might be.
