i installed twrp a few weeks back because i had a sd card problem and read you need root access blah blah. the problem was that i was sold a 128 sc card and it was only 8 gig.... yep bought it from ebay lol. so i did not need twrp.
now i have got the 1st or 2nd software update from htc popping up on my phone. i have not updated because iv read it could mess things up on my phone.
i want to either 1. remove twrp all together so i can install official update or 2nd where to get the update and do it through twrp. where do i need to go. how to install it. also how to install stock android because it is meant to be better and perform better.
also i cant seem to gain access to twrp anymore. do i need to do something in order to get into bootloader ?
help please.

If you need to return to stock & you didn't make a backup here is a good thread to see if your stock recovery and stock rom is there http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

You don't have to... after you install stock ROM just install the latest update from the Settings

Well I think you can just flash stock recovery back before you do that make a backup with twrp and if you have removed system apps or froze them restore them before flashing stock recovery back & then apply the updates if that is successful just flash twrp back

Well you either need to find your stock rom Inc stock recovery if it's not there you could ask for it on the thread & at some point someone might upload it. Take it you never made a stock Backup before unlocking etc.

Clockwork mod is custom recovery if you have s-off it will install it but if your s-on you will have to flash it via htboot with the Adb commands. Good guide here to have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711073

Not being funny there is plenty of guides on xda to help you. If you don't know if you have s-off you shouldn't even attempt the Adb commands or flashing anything as you could end up with a expensive paper weight. Before you do anything else read the XDA threads on the m8

For me, being fairly new, was to use the CyanogenMod installer. It does all the work for you, then you can flash whatever Rom you like.

I doubt that any stock rom will flash with twrp recovery....in the past with oppo phones (n1, 7a) its always needed stock recovery to flash stock roms...I guess we just play the waiting game until someone can upload the boot image from the updated rom. I'm pretty sure flashing that alone will get wifi back up and running. 07 Or if someone has the stock recovery they could upload....I am unsure if you can just rip it directly out of the rom and flash it....Also on oppo forums they have posted the rom for 5207 I am also unsure if you can flash that to the 5206.
The zip in that thread is images to flash in fastboot?
...
I would think you would have to flash each image individually.... system, boot, recovery ....unless if we start by flashing only the unmodified boot.img to see if it will fix wifi....but i doubt it because i suspect the wrong boot image is what screwed up wifi in the first place...someone please correct me if im wrong

Yes, you're right; the boot image is not compatible with the upgrade; so downgrade to get root. I'm working on trying to upgrade again with the OTA upgrade and then getting the new boot.img and rooting that. More soon I hope!
FYI I tried your images, Lum_UK and found that I couldn't flash boot.img with fastboot, BUT I could dd them from within recovery, so I got myself up and running again.
Yes you'd have to flash all the images by hand one after the other.

Thanks for that, though I haven't tried it yet. Can I ask what it changes? Is it worth the upgrade? My original firmware +root seems to work pretty well already so I may well leave it alone until L or CM comes out.

I have no idea what it changes as it's the firmware my International N5706 was shipped with when it was released last week. It may be different to the US model (though I believe the only difference between the two is the baseband) and is definitely different to the N5707 for Chinese users.
Dude, thanks!!! You saved my life!

Oppo neo 7 a33f custom recovery plzzz send me
Hi, I've talked of this before. The firmware update, I tried returning to stock then attempting to update the firmware through updating the software OTA but that failed no matter what I did. I returned to stock, flashed the stock recovery, and even locked the bootloader. And finally I attempted an RUU but the RUU failed. So now I lost all my data in vain. I rooted the phone again and reflashed it to Insert coin android 4.4.4, ect.. And I currently am really tired of this. Isn't there any way to get through this? I want the new Insert Coin Lollipop but I have S-ON and cant update the firmware. Can someone please help me? It would be really appreciated. Thanks for reading this lousy comment.

I don't know anything about Insert Coin. But if you want stock lollipop from Rogers, you could restore a Nandroid backup via TWRP.
For a start, post your fastboot getvar all (without serial no. and imei no.)
Then most probably the nandroid that ikeny mentioned is the right backup.
I'd be more worried about the RUU failing - I wonder what the error code was?
If OP's M8 was Rogers branded, CID ROGER_001, then RUU from Rogers never existed in the first place. Perhaps this explains the error.

Yes, that would be correct. That's my first assumption. Although do you have any methods to update my firmware to the latest android 5.1 lolipop?

I'm actually kinda wondering, is there a method to update to lollipop without returning to stock? I don't have S-OFF so I cant update the firmware alone. All I want is to update the firmware somehow and then I'd be able to use the latest Insert Coin Lollipop Rom. Although thanks a ton for that link, I'll use it as my last resort.

After you unzip the file, you will get the TWRP nandroid image. This image is a 100% stock, and all your files and apps will be wiped. Unavoidable. You could follow the second post in the previous link for rooting. Beyond that, you are on your own.

You don't need the img file now. That was the stock recovery, for later, if you want to replace the TWPR recovery.

It looks like you flashed a ROM for the t805 not the t705.
First let's get you back to stock.
Download the firmware for your device from the link below.
Follow the instructions to install it. This will get you up and running again.

Hi ya, I have already done that but issue still there. Now I can boot up and start the setup process and the tablet freezes and reboots about 1 minute into setup process near where you have to sign in to google
Any more suggestions:crying::crying::crying: please
Tbh I think you have a hardware issue.
Now new problem when I try to install twrp it will not do it, If I go into the system recovery and try to do factory reset an error shows as follows
E: unknown volume for path {/sbfs}
E: unknown volume "/sbfs"[/U][/U]
Data wipe complete.
I thought it may be battery related but I have changed to a genuine new battery. still same issue
