Hey Folks
I have a slight issue, I had a rooted HTC 10(UK EE) phone running firmware 1.80.91.1, which I wanted to update so I flashed a back-up from TWRP to restore OTA functionality, however, this backup was corrupted and the phone got stuck in a boot loop with no OS, hurrah!
I've sorted that however, by locating a TWRP backup of 1.21.91.4, which was the only one I could find for the CID EVE__001, this file was just a boot and sys.img no recovery, now I still can't get OTA updates as I'm getting the file system is corrupted error when trying to download the updates.
So I've hunted and hunted either to find a full back-up, recovery or RUU that will work with my CID as I'm S-on, I have had no luck, so I can no longer get updates for the phone.
So, does anyone have a stock recovery they could upload for either 1.21.91.4, or even better a full back-up of any of the x.xx.91.x firmware? I've been tearing my hair out trying to find anything above 1.21.91.4 and even that was just a partially back up.
Any help is muchly appreciated.
Hi, I am om EE uk but my CID is HTC__001.
I HAVE A FULL BACKUP DONE IN TWRP, WHICH YOU CAN HAVE. I WILL SORT IT OUT AND SEND YOU A LINK. DONT KNOW IF IT WILL WORK BECAUSE OF DIFFERENT CID, BUT YOU CAN GIVE IT A GO.
GIVE ME A DAY OR SO.
Sorry to resurrect the thread, @si86 I've having trouble restoring radio signal on my HTC 10 after flashing an incorrect ROM, I'm on EE also- I'd really appreciate a copy of your TWRP backup to try on my handset if you are able to supply, would be very appreciated! I'm able to change the CID to match, having been through them all recently! My bootloader is unlocked and I'm S-Off. Thanks.
@Tuesg Were you able to rectify your situation?

I've just hunted high and low to try and figure out why nothing will flash successfully to my HTC 10.
turns out to be this same issue, I'm showing as CID - EVE_001 on an MID 2PS62000
Any chance you could send me that link as well so that I can at least try and get the phone back to a usable state instead of being stuck in either bootloader, download or recovery.
My phone is Bootloader unlocked, but still S-On as I hadn't got that far yet.
Will i need to flash a stock recovery? and lock the bootloader again to get this to install properly?
It's really proving tricky as hell.
I got caught out a bit here as I was half way to using sunshine to s_off, and then I accidentally triggered an OTA update to Nougat 7.0.......
It never restarted properly after that and i've been unable to get it back to 6 or any other ROM at all as they all fail.
I managed to fix it, but only by switching to s-off and installing the EU edition software, I'm a tad concerned now though as I've yet to get the roll out of the 7.0 update, not sure if that's because of installing a different firmware or whether it hasn't been rolled out yet.
@si86 Many thanks for your assistance and sharing the files, I was unable to fix my phone after trying various avenues (100+hrs) so I swallowed my pride and went the insurance route, not worth spending more time on getting to work and I now have a rather nice device, yet unusable call/texts wise to play with alongside my nice shiny new one running 2.41.91.3 - I've rooted and S-off with sunshine, just trying to decide whether i'm going to play with some more custom ROMS again! Of course I am!
@Tuesg Kudos on fixing your issue!

You can usually do it straight from the SuperSU app itself.

Along with superuser usually comes with an app for configuring it, depending on how it was rooted. SuperSU is usually the most common although I much prefer magisk.
It will be obvious what it's called, either superuser, SuperSU, etc. SuperSU contains within it the ability to fully unroot.
If there's no app, and if it is a stock rom, and not a custom one, a factory reset will remove it. If not, you will probably need to either do some adb commands to remove it, or remove it using the recovery.

In short terms, yes that might work for banking apps but it won't work for future Android updates. You need a completely stock (untouched) system and SU changes that even if you choose to unroot via the application.
hi when i i tried that super user unoot it goes to Twrp bootloader and nothing in there says unroot or uninstall twrp bootloader
Hey guys Google pay still doesn't work says phone has been modified I am eve_001 software number 1.80.401.1 what can I do to make phone stock again

I've had that issue with both Viper and Maximus. Removing root doesnt seem to totally remove it, and certain apps still pick up ... something.
Going back to total stock condition is a huge pain in the unmentionables. Because quite a lot of phones don't actually have an RUU for thier CID (for instance mine, H3G__001) has no RUU. So complete stock, even from TWRP backup was never an option for me. Even though ROOT wasnt an issue, things like OTA problems persisted no matter what.
I had to S-OFF (worth it in general tbh) in order to go back to a complete stock condition using the HTC WWE version (HTC__001). In the end I just decided to stick with the ROM I have now, LeeDroid. It has the option to be installed without root from the get go, but these days I just use Magisk. It is so simple to hide from banking apps and even things like pokemon go, that it doesnt do any harm having root there.

Hi there,
I'm in the exact same spot as the guy above. I restored the backup he mentioned, but don't have the Recovery. Therefore my phone is telling me I need to enter decryption password and won't boot past it.
Would you be able to give me that backup too?
Thanks.

Maybe I am not following you completely...but why would you try to take an OTA when you are unlocked and rooted?
Second, I don't believe there are any OTA updates for the Vzw One as of yet.
It looks like you attempted to install an update for the European/International HTC One.
Why you are trying to do so, I'm not sure.
But you don't wanna install that, even if you could...

Well, I assumed you had the Verizon HTC One, since you posted in the Vzw One forums.
If you have the International One, you may wanna post in the relevant forums.
Folks will be much more capable of helping you with roms/software intended for your model over there.
The OTA will not install while you are unlocked and running a Custom Recovery.
Try finding a rooted version of the latest OTA version for your device in your device's Development forums.
That would be the best, most appropriate way to update the stock software while staying rooted and unlocked.
Good luck! :good:

Thanks! I haven't yet.
I have gone back and forth about it quite a bit. (still thinking about it every day, lol)
Can't really give up or don't want to give up my Unlimited though.
Since someone was very kind and gave me a DNA a little while back, I may stick with it for now.
Still a vast improvement over the 'ol Thunderbolt, though I loved it too for quite some time.
There has been some talk of some very kind folks pitching in to help me get a One though.
So that way, I can keep my Unlimited and hopefully work on both the One and the DNA in the not too distant future.
I would wait for a ROM, butif you really want to take OTA, u need stock recovery

Hi all
I have a small issue. I have a M8 which I love great device. I managed to gain full Sim Unlock via S-Off, Super Cid and a guide on here.
I flashed back to my Stock back up that does not have root and flashed stock recovery.
At work we Use a MDM call Mobile Iron to gain access to emails. Since doing all of this my device is never compliant due to the system thinking something is up with my device. Now since I think I am back at stock for my device it should be.
I am trying to find a Stock RUU to see if it helps. I have locked the boot loader again and removed the Tampered flag. But still the same issue. Any ideas ?

Hey everyone,
new here and to rooting/flashing in general.
I've somewhat successfully converted my verizon M8 to work on Tmobile by using weaksauce 2.0 to root, then Sunshine to gain S-off. Flashed TRWP custom recovery with flashify, backed up my stock vzw setup (4.4.4), then flashed ViperoneM8 with tmobile extras to the phone. The phone works great 90% of the time on Tmo, with 4gLTE, mms, sms, wifi all working. But I will get random dropped general mobile service (no data, can't make calls, text won't go through). This is easily fixed with airplane mode toggle.
Sooo, I wanted to see how other roms work on my phone with Tmobile service, specifically ARHD 34.0 and/or change phone to developer edition and upgrade to Lollipop. But both roms require prerequisite upgrading of firmware. My phone won't let me change the firmware via ADB or RUU. I've tried changing to superCID and going back to relocked mode, but still won't work. I get error 155 when attempting to upgrade via RUU and cannot find firmware.zip when using adv/fastboot.
I came across an old thread about other rooted models that suggest upgrading the HBOOT. Can anyone verify this suggestion and guide me toward which specific HBOOT software to change to?
Thanks for the help,
-Ant

If your stock was 4.4.4, your firmware and hboot should be fine to run ARHD. I don't think that WWE firmware (x.xx.401.x) is compatible with T-Mo (x.xx.531.x). The firmware you have now (3.32.531.2?) will be fine.

You shouldn't have wifi issues. ViperOne is building a Lollipop version right now, and 4.4.4 firmware works fine with it.
The ARHD thread does recommend a full wipe with the non-matching firmware/ROM base though.

I was relocked previously trying to update firmware. I completely forgot to unlock it before the ROM flash. I would assume the ROM wouldnt flash though if the phone was relocked. I'm still S-off. Fastboot isn't recognizing the files i want to flash. Won't flash the unlock code. Wouldn't flash a zip file before when trying to update firmware. Can I somehow fix why fastboot isn't flashing files, then try to use unlock code?
possible progress?? I wasn't in the correct file to fastboot flash files. I moved the unlock code download to the correct file as flashboot, then flashed it. It says "unlock token check successfully." but now it seems the phone is stuck in white htc screen. Is it ok to power down the phone when in this screen? maybe loading the software from new ROM?
so I went ahead and powered down the phone. Still S-off. Now has UNLOCKED banner, but behaving the same. Stuck in bootloader loop. Won't allow me to get into recovery

Okay. Being S-Off you don't need to lock your bootloader to flash firmware. But since you were trying to flash Developer Edition firmware, you would have to flash a stock Dev Ed backup first, and change your MID and CID.
Leave your phone plugged into your PC.
Go here and follow the option 2 instructions. You want the APP/EXE version to download. It should fix you up.
where do you people come from..you're a self proclaimed noob who has executed an unsupported carrier switch, which ends up with a half functional device as a result.. and then you decide to crank the up the hilarity to warp drive stupid by flashing ANOTHHER unsupported ROM combination on top.
the random signal dropping is most certainly a result of this conversion as I have a couple of related support tickets saying the same.
you should be thankful that unholy is so patient and willing to help.. and that we know he has nothing better to do

I think you're right. I've tried to search how to change modelid via fastboot since I can't boot the phone to run adb, but all the tutorials seem to be based on using adb. Is their a way to change via fastboot only?
SUCCESS! Well, I was able to reinstall TWRP via the appropriate adb/fastboot commands and flash my nandroid backup.
Unholy, I know you mentioned doing this command, but I did not know I had to put the .img file name within that command....result of being such a noob. You were awesome and I greatly appreciate you help.

software version: 2.16.654.4
android: 4.4.3.
Issue:
1. I can not install any OTA updates, and the notification keeps popping out.
2. Mobile data is just not working properly even though I did everything as said here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-one-m8/general/enabling-3g-umts-countries-t2847461
As I did my research, it was some kind of a major bug on this series of Sprint M8 phones with breakdowns in mobile data. However, since I can not get any updates, the problem perists.
I tried installing custom ROM's, but so far ARHD 22 didn't even boot and LiquidSmooth couldn't detect the SIM card at all.
I know there are quite a few tutorials and "how-to" threads explaining all you need to know about RUU, cusotm ROM's, etc. However if someone could tell me what exactly to do and in which order (return to stock, then update?) I would greatly appreciate it.
Many many thanks!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-htc-one-m8/general/enabling-3g-umts-countries-t2847461
As I did my research, it was some kind of a major bug on this series of Sprint M8 phones with breakdowns in mobile data. However, since I can not get any updates, the problem perists.
I tried installing custom ROM's, but so far ARHD 22 didn't even boot and LiquidSmooth couldn't detect the SIM card at all.
I know there are quite a few tutorials and "how-to" threads explaining all you need to know about RUU, cusotm ROM's, etc. However if someone could tell me what exactly to do and in which order (return to stock, then update?) I would greatly appreciate it.
Many many thanks!

You need a stock recovery to flash the OTA.

Easiest way to get it back to stock is just flash the Sprint H/K RUU. You can download it from HERE. Just run it and connect your phone when prompted and follow the instructions (I'd probably change your CID back to the Sprint one first to be on the safe side but as you're S-OFF it shouldn't be needed). You might also need HTC Sync Manager installed. If so, you can get it HERE
This process will wipe the phone completely so back up any data first but other than that you'll at least be back to stock and then troubleshoot any issues from there
Thanks
Many thanks to everyone.
Any chances of loosing the SIM UNLOCK when going back to stock completely?
Nope, that shouldn't be touched but as I've not had a SIM-locked device in years I can't say for certain

Mine did the same this morning just flash twrp recovery and boot into it and you should be fine I don't know why it did this since I'm used to it popping up with a screen asking if I want to unlock boot loader but if it told you it was good then push twrp and you're good

Yeah, I just did that, no problems at all.
Tried to delete the previous post, but you got ahead of me
Let's see if I can get the mobile data to work without flaws.

Why not 34? Lol Sprint is up to date on its software you could just update to the lollipop firmware, and I could pull some of the files I've got to see if I can help you get it running, I'm on Leedroid right now so the process should be the same for ARHD.

Sorry if some of my questions are a bit dum, I just got from a long trip and have been out of this all rooting busines for a while...
Do i need to install a new stock firmware from Sprint with Lolipop to get the 34 runing?
I have been told v34 won't be working with this software I have right now on the phone.

You can or you can go to the Sprint android development and flash the updated recovery since you are s-off and it'll permit you to flash lollipop roms without many issues but there is still the files that need to be modified for ARHD to work correctly like the boot.img and a few others.

Any ideas??

Power+vol up for about 15 seconds then power+vol down to get into recovery. You cant flash it unless you swap out Sprint specific files otherwise you'll get what just happened or boot directly into boot loader.
Like I mentioned I can pull the files together and see if I can get it working for Sprint tonight when I get home but until then flash either fluent Rom or stock if you want lollipop or just flash bad boyz if you don't mind kitkat

For me, the biggest issue is the mobile data breakdowns... I know I read somewhere a while ago it was an issue with some Sprint M8 models. I would like to get everything working w/o problems since it is GSM unlocked, and via QPST I unlocked all the bands.

Also, I just found some official EU RUU's with different radio's as far as I can tell from the filename.
Maybe that could be the final solution to all the problems?
Made a series of mistakes that led me to only have access to fastboot and recovery. It appears I'm capable of flashing things in fastboot. I can't access download mode at all (gives me an error saying it's unable to boot into download mode), which I believe you need in order to flash RUUs in the first place.
If anybody has a TWRP backup of system and boot that'd be awesome, but really need an img of download mode or a RUU or something to help me recover everything to normal. I am S-OFF and bootloader is unlocked.
Checked HTCdev and nothing was there for this device. All help appreciated.
How do you have fastboot when fastboot comands are done from download mode? Dont you have a stock system image that you made?
He means bootloader mode, the white screen. I think OP is SOL. That's why it's important to make backups, especially for exotic devices. I'm not sure if it's possible, but since he's s-off his best bet would be to convert to an unlocked or Verizon device if at all possible just to get the device working again and wait for either an ruu or backup.
If he is soffed he can flash an international ruu

Cid and mid still needs to match
How did you go with this, OP? I just got the HTV32 (HTC10) here in Japan, and unlike previous HTC's I have owned here (Desire, M7), there seems to be no RUUs for Japan anywhere (or am I not looking hard enough...). Website HTCsoku seems very short on info on this model, and the former repository for all things HTC in Japan for modders and tinkerers, 'Scottish Vinegar', has disappeared. Will be getting Sunshine then flashing TWRP and SuperSU soon, but I always like to have the option of stock images, etc., handy, just in case things go tits up.
I remembered the case of failure to entering Download Mode in M9 which solution is flashing the hosd image (extract from firmware), you can give it a try

Unfortunately was not able to get a hold of the stock RUU. I took my phone to my carrier and they gave me a new one free of charge despite the unlocked bootloader, S-OFF and TWRP being installed. Was just more careful on the replacement phone.
I actually am still looking for a stock RUU though.
Personally I made a TWRP backup before installing SuperSU. That way I can update with OTAs later on. (once we get an OTA we'll be able to pull the stock recovery img from it and update without issue).
Trying to convert this model to an international model was a terrible mistake. Au KDDI does not play well with these types of things. My Butterfly 3 is permanently SIM locked on AU's network for attempting the same thing (was trying to get Marshmallow at the time, which coincidentally is being released for the device next week).
I have been running Xposed and SuperSU with no issues at all though. If you get any "device encrypted" error after S-OFFing, just factory reset the data in TWRP.
Many domo's, DarkRazorZ!
I read that twrp-3.0.2-6-pme.img is the one to go for - that what you used?
Good you had no grief from HTC Japan. I actually sent back my M7 for the purple camera issue a few years back and did very little to disguise the fact it was unlocked and S-Offed. I think they are all fellow modders there and don't give a damn what we do. One reason why HTC is awesome.
I am now waiting for Nougat on the HTC10 (they (AU) just did a press release that it will be pushed soon), and as soon as that is on my phone, I shall be going the Sunshine route and installing aforementioned TWRP and so on. Getting fidgety, though... Xposed, Amplify, ad blocking... lemme at 'em.

Hey I was wondering if you could help me on how to get a replacement device, I ran into the same problem as you did. Thanks
Hello DarkRazorZ.
I'm curious about your attempt to convert HTV32 to international.
It couldn't be done because of hardware compatibility issue among HTV32 and international?
Or because of just your own mistake in the process?
Did you try a method like this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/help/convert-htc-10-to-unlocked-t3384460
I'm in Japan and considering to buy HTV32, and I want to use it with international firmware.
I know this is your thread, but I can't find any information about this on web.
So could you share me your knowledge. Thanks.
the us unlocked version can be used on KDDI Au but the verizon radio has to be flashed for it to work and even then, you will only get 2g speeds.

No, I'm considering to buy HTV32(= HTC10 for Japan region), not other.
Well I'll make a new thread about this issue.
Thanks for replying Quadrider10, and sorry for disturbing DarkRazorZ.
