Hi redpoint

Thx for your reply and trying to help me.

Yes you are correct...it is 16GB storage. Just goes to show how long i have been out of the loop with these sorts of things and probably why im having trouble sorting this out :)

Thx for clearing up that the radio version is for a Lollypop version and for setting me straight on on recovery and ROM terminology.

Now...can i post the phone to some one to sort out for me lol

thx ckpv5...ill give it a try when i get home from work
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
ckpv5's advice is excellent, as always. But one thing I'd add, is that the RUU update method he linked will wipe all data on the phone. If there is anything on the phone your wife wants to retrieve/keep (that isn't backed up to removable SD or off the phone - such as PC or cloud), you might try to restore the stock TWRP backup (restore Lollipop) and corresponding stock recovery, retrieve the data, and from there either see if the update installs properly, otherwise update to MM using the RUU method linked by ckpv5 above.

To restore stock TWRP backup for Lollipop, use ckpv5's thread (also linked in his signature) and install the stock TWRP backup and stock recovery for 4.16.401.10 or 4.16.401.13 (can't tell which exactly, I just know its one of those from the radio number). Necessary files and instruction in the thread: http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860

Now, we don't exactly know what caused the phone to stop booting in the first place, so I'd suggest to make it clear to your wife up front, that you may or may not be able to retrieve any data. But its certainly worth a try.

Of course, if there isn't any data your wife wants to keep, you can go ahead with ckpv5's original advice to update by RUU.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuka69:
Yeah there is nothing on the phone that she wants to keep now :)

So, tried it out but when i go to flash it says it cannot open the zip file. Below is the cmd string:

Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.10586]

After typing the "fastboot oem rebootRUU" the phone reboots and has HTC on a black screen and stays there. Is that correct?

I also tested the files in the zip and it looks like some are corrupted:

C:\Users\st00kz\Desktop\RUU\RUU.zip.zip: The archive is corrupt

C:\Users\st00kz\Desktop\RUU\RUU.zip.zip: Checksum error in dzdata_32g.img. The file is corrupt

I tried downloading it on all the mirrors from this link in your other post https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960687057

Am i doing it right??? if so...is there another place that i can find the zip file???

Thx for all your advice again guys
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
1. The zip is not corrupted but it is encypted so you can't open it.

2. Read the above when you tested the zip. It seems your windows extension is hidden, when you rename the file to RUU.zip, you actually rename it to RUU.zip.zip, that's why you have the error (read that warning in the guide). Rename the file to RUU and do the test again, can you see now it is read as RUU.zip ? If yes, retry the procedure but this time run the flashing part with :

fastboot oem rebootRUU

htc_fastboot flash zip RUU

3. Don't skip the upper part in the guide, to relock bootloader if current bootloader status is unlocked.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
There is

nothing

in ckpv5's instructions that say to open the RUU zip. I don't know why folks are always trying to do this.

The command "fastboot flash zip xx.zip" expects exactly that, an unaltered zip file to flash. Download, rename, and flash it, that's all. The zip file doesn't need to be unzipped or anything like that.

Once you mess with the zip, (which isn't actually possible without the HTC encryption key - and trust me you can't do it) you make the zip unsigned, which also means you then can't flash it with s-on, by definition.

So moral of the story, leave the zip alone (aside from renaming it) and flash it.

I can see how this part may have led you to believe something was wrong with the zip, and to further examine it (possibly leading you to try to unzip it). But as ckpv5 mentioned, this error is almost always a result of folks not having the zip file in the right location: either simply not in the right folder (same folder as htc_fastboot.exe) or more commonly you unwittingly named it "RUU.zip.zip" due to Windows defaults.

Do yourself a favor, and turn off the Windows setting to hide file extensions (which is usually enabled by default): Control Panel>Folder Options>View tab, and deselect the option "Hide extensions of known file types".
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stuka69:
Ahh ok got you now. Sorry ...must have missed the part about the windows extension (misses bleating in my ear about getting this sorted and other nonsense :)) Ill go back and have another look with out her around.

And yes I did the upper part of the guide. I relocked the bootloader.

Thx again for your help. I will owe you a lot of beers soon :)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ckpv5:
In case the above not working for you, here is the easier one ...

1. Download the RUU_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_4.16.401.10_Radio_1.25.214500021.06G_20.68.4196t.01_F_release_417003_signed.exe from http://androidruu.com/?developer=M8

2. Connect the device to PC (in fastboot/bootloader mode)

3. Right click the exe and select run as administrator, follow all the instructions, accept/agree, next, update, next, blablabla until it complete. (You need PC with USB2.0 and HTC USB drivers installed - I believe you already have these)

4. After reboot, setting up everything, go to settings - about - software update - do the checking, download, install OTA update.

There are many methods to fix your phone. Just try these two options first. I'll be travelling back to home in the morning (I won't be able to reply to any question that you may have during that time) and I'll be home in the evening and will check your progress.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crxssroad:
Original Post:

Heya everyone!

I was trying to play Pokemon Go but I found out it only supports Android 4.4+ and by some cruel twist of fate I'm on 4.3.

I'm trying to figure out how to get to 4.4(or any other supported version) while still maintaining root(I need it because I'm on MetroPCS rather than AT&T and I have to use a root required app to use their service). I tried un-rooting and using the OTA update but that was a complete failure. (Maybe because I didn't fully unroot) Restored root with safestrap and I've been stuck in a rut since. I tried the guide in the resource thread but the guide it links to is missing a file so that's basically a no go.

Here's my about device(it's also rooted and I have safestrap):

If this info is relevant, I originally rooted my phone using this guide: http://www.androidrootz.com/2013/10/how-to-root-at-galaxy-note-3.html

Ever since I've installed xposed, a couple modules and loaded safestrap(thank God because I'd be so effed without this right now) onto it. Oh and I have yet to trip Knox.

Could anyone guide me through the steps or point me to the appropriate thread? I can follow instructions pretty well, as long as I can understand. Any help is appreciated!

P. S. Would this thread help? http://xdaforums.com/note-3-att/general/how-to-root-n900aucudnl1-4-4-4-12-24-t2983357

Both mrkhigh's and 440bro's posts were insanely useful. Take the time to read carl1961's guide as well. Scroll down to the nc2 files section. The same steps are also included there as well as the same files you can use. Scroll a bit further down and you'll see screenshots(in hidden tags) of the files loaded correctly into Odin. There are several setups so use the one you need.

Thanks to everyone who contributed!

Hi [MENTION=7240616]Crxssroad[/MENTION]

Try this:

[First keep your note as you have it]

-Extract your CHIP or SIM, and your SD Card.

-Install a CUSTOM RECOVERY [could be TWRP or ClockworkMod] (This will keep your root or better upgrade your root)

-Download and install via custom recovery the [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION] rom CM13 (Android MM.) or any other CM11, CM12 build [MENTION=2332422]temasek[/MENTION] CM13 link: [HLTE/TMO/SPR][ROM][CM13][6.0.1_r30] Temasek's UNOFFICIAL Build v9.3]

MAKE SHURE THAT YOUR PHONE ITS SUPPORTED BY THIS ROMS (This also will keep your phone root)

-if you want update only the kernel, there is a lot of threads about many kernel variants for diferent versions of performance

[TIP: if you upgrade your KERNEL regardless if you install a new clean ROM or you just update your kernel always make a WIPE CACHE DALVIK, then when you boot in your main system install

Antutu Benchmark

from google play or aptoide, and run it and click test, then if you phone reboot during the test change the kernel, and then make another wipe cache dalvik, run the test of Antutu Benchmak. Make shure that you are runing a kernel that does not make your phone reboot by itself]

(Useful kernels and mini kernel guide here: [kernel] [lp] [most-roms] [all-qcom] idleKernel, a leanKernel fork (7.1.0) by [MENTION=5672995]jcadduono[/MENTION] )

Then put your SIM on, and reboot your phone, you would be able to play Pokemon Go, I ran Pokemon Go on my GlaxyS4Mini (GT-l9195) and in my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900W8)

Hope this help you ::good:

(I'm sorry if my grammar its bad, I did not use to write or talk in inglish :P )
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HardBOT™:
Easy

If you have "xposed" just search for "wanam xposed" install it , and apply it , reboot.

Open wanam click security or security change (before the last one ) mark the third option , reboot

Go to settings , OTA updates , update and done .

Hope this helpful.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
I just got to thinking.

You only want KitKat.

The second post is useless in this thread it does not pertain to note 3 att.

You should do this:

Download the nc2 Odin files,

And flash a clean 4.4.2 install using odin then install towelroot for root, then busybox then safestrap. Then install app quarantine, then freeze all Knox apps and art updater.

I'll post the URL in a second

Yes, what you described is all I'm hoping to achieve so if this will work, thank you a million times. I'm just having one issue with the thread you linked. When you say "all-in-one" I assume you're referring to this:

If so, the link leads to a page that cannot be found. :/ Is there any other place I could get the files?

EDIT: Actually, after looking above, there are some mediafire links that seem to be working. Are these the same files I need? If so, do I need to download all 5 individual files? If this is the case, I have no issue. I just want to be 100% certain.

EDIT2: Assuming I can go through with this, is there anything I need to backup? I have most important things in a cloud server so all I need to do is get my pictures. I have some in internal memory and some in my sd card. Any that might be deleted?

EDIT3: This person gave me a link to the files I need! So I'm going to be downloading these and I'll go through with the update as soon as I'm able to.

EDIT: 4 Updated! EVERYTHING IS WORKING FINE! Thank you thank you and many thanks unto you and all your descendants to come.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
When I did it I had to factory reset to boot for some reason so I would back everything up prior to doing it.

Thanks! I got everything to work just fine using the files from the other guy, but I followed your steps(which were the same as his save for installing busy box, safe strap and app quarantine).

Any other tips you can give me? I'm going to create a backup using safestrap as soon as I'm done installing all my essential apps but not sure if there's anything else I should be doing to save myself from any future possible f-ups.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrkhigh:
Follow the guide for tethering... and maybe install xposed. Honestly thats all I did other than some debloating done via app quarantine.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] AdrianDC:
ZIP FOTA recovery will only work if you already have a ROM supporting FOTA boot like official based CyanogenMod.

On CM13, you'll get the boot selection with my sony_init, dual recovery boot with Volume + (FOTA) and Volume - (CyanogenRecovery).

I'd advise you to flash the TWRP bootimage, it'll boot to TWRP only, then flash ROM, GApps & FOTA zip.

Or flash it all inside your current TWRP from old ROM, it's the same result.

Starting from a clean new TWRP bootimage is just the easiest and cleanest way to start.

Same clean way is to flash the boot.img bootimage from the CM13 zip.
