[Q] RUU Htc M8 - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there
Just a question about RUU availability for the new Htc One M8.
Does anyone have an address for the download the official stock RUU ?
Thank's
Phil

No ruu's ..... (yet) it's mandatory to make your own stock nand backup !

If i make my own stock backup of this phone, will it co back to official status after it has been restored? With OTA and all that?

FYI: official GB cannot be rooted nor downgraded!

Hi all,
The official 2.3 cannot be downgraded or rooted, even with a goldcard you will get "main version is older", so i suggest you not te be stupid like me and install it!
DONT INSTALL OR YOU WILL BE SCREWED LOL
Sincerely

wont.. i tried using a goldcard and says: main version is older..
And running the RUU will result in nothing since my phone is branded qq lol
Why are you trying to remove it any way?
cause i need root and custom rom etc
Do you need to get s-on and stock hboot etc before running the RUU. I need to unroot so would running the 2.3 update be my quick and easy way to get it back to stock. I'm vodafone uk and don't have a goldcard lol

yes it would flash back to stock and debrand I think - but you won't be able to downgrade/root/flash custom roms at the moment.

I think you are foolish - that ROM is a proof that official GB ROM can be rooted.

[Q] Anyone got a nandroid backup for 2.17.110.5?

My SD card got corrupted -_- and i lost all my nandroid backups :crying:...anyone on Tmobile UK with the cid T-MOB 005 got a stock nandroid backup for the 2.17.110.5 version?

i don't think that you can flash a different phone's nandroid backup, there are many variables that change from a phone to another

Then I don't think it will work, CID has to match mine but you can try if you want but I highly recommend that you don't.

Hi, could you send me a link for this backup if you still have it? Trying to get back to TMOB005 stock
Much appreciated!
Hi.
I also need the 2.17.110.5 RUU, as I'm trying to get back to stock rom from Cyanogenmod, as I want to install Jelly Bean OTA (TMobile just released it a week or so ago).
In the absence of that, I downloaded the Nandroid backup....however I'm having problems installing from Nandroid backups.
Here's what I've done:
Flashed the boot.img from the zip/rar file. (seemed to work fine)
Went into recovery in HBOOT.
Tried to recover from the ZIP, and it failed.
Is there something I'm missing here? (sorry, very much a noob when it comes to these things!)
A nandroid backup has to be unpacked. A RUU is a single .exe file.
Download the matching nandroid backup from here . Check the cid and main version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140
Unpack it and place it on the phones sdcard looking like this
Clockworkmod\backup\date and time folder\nandroid backup files
Flash the boot.img from the nandroid backup and enter the recovery , do a full wipe except sdcard and restore the nandroid !
When all this works you flash back the stock recovery

And after that you can update the phone to JB
in case the ruu is needed you can get it from here https://www.dropbox.com/s/l6e21wodv...adio_2.1204.137U.21_release_284360_signed.exe
n1kos & Mr Hofs...thank you both very much. I'll let you know how I get on, but fingers crossed.
Worked perfectly. RUU not even required. You guys really helped a noob out there. Wish I could give you more thanks.
No problem mate ! Glad it worked !!! :thumbup:

I'd give 10 thanks for this one post if I could, RUU worked perfect.
I initially tried the nandroid you uploaded but when installing the JB update it would always error in recovery.
Thanks n1kos

JB OTA error!

Was trying to update the JB via OTA but then the screen showed red exclamatory mark. What is going on?

Custom Recovery?
Any mods?
Unlocked bootloader?
You need
Stock rom (as it was out of the box)
Stock kernel
Stock recovery
Bootloader can stay unlocked and root is also not a problem
Its running stock rom, stock recovery, but unlocked bootloader and rooted.
I followed the guide here.
Still getting error.

Did u change anything to the rom, remove bloatware or something similar
Being rooted and the unlocked bootloader is not the problem
Ah ha, I did disable some bloatware. Is this whats causing problem?

For what ? Did u read what we are doing here ? Hboot is not important (certainly not in this case)
None of the bloatware is disabled nor removed, and I can be sure the stock rom hasn't been tempered with. Recovery is checked to be stock. Yet still no luck with ota.
Might have to use ruu after all.

Nope, but your apps will be erased using the RUU. So use the backup if you want to keep them.

Hi guys, this is my first post, and I have a question right away.
My M9 is running on 1.32.401.17, it's android 5.0.2. I didn't received any OTA update, and tried with RUU and it can't update this way. So I rooted it and I don't know can I install 3.35.401.12 rom e.g? My phone is int. version and it's S-OFF..
Thanks and sorry for my english..

Yes, you can.
It would wipe your data though so be prepared.

Since you're flashing a RUU matching your current SKU (401), you should be golden.
