[Q] Back to Stock ROM - available from any working DHD?

Hi,
I am in trouble. C.a. 6 months ago my DHD had to go to service because of headphone icon still standing at the taskbar and it was not possible to talk with anybody. After this i received new motherboard. Before that i had fully unlocked phone (root, S-OFF), but when i get it back from service, there was newest firmware installed, and of course s-on, no root. I rooted phone somehow, but s-on stayed still. And I can flash custom roms, but everytime I am doing this, I have to flash boot.img. Is it possible to turn S-ON to S-OFF? I tried many ways (AAHK, gold card + PD98IMG), downgrade to older version. Nothing was successful. The problem is, I think, that when any stock rom i am trying to flash with RUU, after rebooting to fastboot phone is locked on screen with HTC logo on black background. There is no progress bar of flashing, no screen with bootloader. What can I do to flash stock rom, can You help me?
On my bootloader screen already looks like this:
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT - 2.00.0029
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.14.04.28_M
eMMc-boot

Why is the hack kit not working? Is your bootloader unlocked?

Do you mean with HTCDev page? I tried this, but in step 14(i think) when the screen from android should appear to commit bootloader unlock operation, then happens nothing - the answer in command line window is ok - suitable to one in tutorial on HTCDev, but on the phone I can't see any changes. Well.. AAHK needs to install downgrade version and then there is the same problem like with RUU - phone cannot flash this version.

PROBLEM RADIO- INVALID_VER_INFO and OpenDSP- INVALID_VER_INFO

Hello, I have a concern which also relates to some of you.
But alas, there is no information on the.
Indeed, in the bootloader menu, there is information at the top of our HTC One M8.
And here is mine:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** UNLOCKED ***
M8_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.16.0.0000
RADIO-INVALID_VER_INFO
OpenDSP-INVALID_VER_INFO
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048MB
(you will find 3 anomalies, radio, and bone-OpenDSP)
I found no way to put the info up to date.
Malgrés all, I encounter no problem and the settings of the phone options, I have good information for radio and others.
Who encounter the same problems?
That a solution?
Or if that can tell us more about this.
Thank you comrades: D

did you flash an ruu not meant for your phone? flashing the correct ruu for your phone will fix your issue.

Or just flash the firmware package for your ROM and that'll sort it out

I had that too for a while on my phone although I do not remember exactly when it started. I think it was after I did the last OTA. I did not think much about it at the time since it did not bother me because it was not causing any problems and everything on the phone was still working fine. It eventually got sorted out on its own, although again, I do not remember exactly when that happened but I think it was after I achieved s-off.

tried to use ruu to update, phone stuck in bootloader

So my phone is currently on a custom rom and I was trying to take it back to stock. I downloaded a ruu from htc dev because a bunch of guides I saw pointed me to do that and click a few buttons during the process it said my phone can't be updated and now i am stuck on a screen that looks like the bootloader but says this

nvm i fixed that problem and now I'm back to square one. maybe someone could point me in the right direction from here.
I'm currently on 4.4.3 kk and am trying to get back to stock from my custom rom. clearly the ruu I used was the incorrect method and the other method I was going to try which involves using hasoon's toolkit appears to not be the answer because when i went to check the cid the version number was not available ( unless im missing something here)
any assistance that someone is willing to offer would be appreciated.

You have to re-lock your bootloader before you run the RUU.

How did you get back to where you were previously? Did you re-flash your custom ROM?

[Q] Unable to enter recovery after using dd install method

Good day all,
I am unable to get into my TWRP recovery, have read through the forum and tried a couple of methods but still not able to get into recovery.
Below the series of events that led to this happening.
27/5/15
-wanted to install CM12.1 but needed to update my TWRP as it prompted me to have an updated version.
[backup my rom into my ext_sd card
-went to TWRP web site ( https://twrp.me/devices/htconem8gsm.html ) via computer and used the dd install method.
-believe it to be successful thus went for a recovery reboot but learnt that I was unable to get into recovery mode after waiting 30+ mins at the 'enter recovery mode' screen.
-tried to factory reset but was unable to factory reset as was unable to enter recovery.
28/5/15
-googled more and tried a few more methods.
-Tried to use a toolkit to get my CID and version number but saw I did not have the version number which was blank and read that countless others are also facing the same problem.
CID = HTC__004
-wanted to unroot and revert to stock rom but unable to get into recovery to flash the stock rom i downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376&highlight=version-main
-Tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727831 (RUU to install twrp) --> the bootloader just seems to hang at the loading of the RUU file and can't get to phrasing it after 30mins of waiting.
-force to reboot phone via pressing power button and now my phone has a error saying 'system uids inconsistent', which i pressed feeling lucky to continue using.
Tried updating twrp via playstore app which still made me unable to enter recovery.
29/5/15
-nearly giving up hope

Use fastboot to erase cache, and flash TWRP with fastboot.

Managed to clear cache and install 2.7.2 twrp and now able to go into recovery.
However, believe I woulkd require twrp 2.8.0 and above to flash cm12.1 and the gapps as I am getting an error when trying to flash cm12.1 nightly in my current 2.7.2 twrp that says that I am unsuccessful.
Tried to update twrp via their app this time and seems to be unable to get into recovery again.
Had cleared cache and installed twrp 2.7.2 again and now awaiting your further assistance in updating my twrp.
Thanks!

Newer TWRP doesn't seem to do well with older hboot. What is your firmware version or hboot number?

That's a good catch, forgot about that one.
OP should update hboot, if its older.

Your hboot is the original that came with the phone/4.4.2
You definitely need to update. I would recommend not just your hboot but the whole firmware package. And what you listed as firmware isn't firmware, it's your ROM.
Boot into bootloader, and post the readout from it here. I, or someone else here, will be able to direct you on how to update it with that information.

Firewater does not work at all, never again. Sunshine is the only reasonable solution !

Another Canadian, eh?
Bell doesn't have any RUUs, unfortunately. You will need to use Sunshine to gain S-Off and switch to superCID to flash firmware, or go back to stock and take the OTAs that Bell provides.

I was guessing from your radio version. Y
Your OS was blank, which would have gave me the proper firmware/model you were on.
Good luck with Sunshine!

Strange Issues from CM11, going to CM12 - What is the proper process?

Hey XDA,
If anyone would be willing to help me out with what I thought would be a simple update, I'd be very thankful...
My carrier is Sprint. Currently on the latest CM11 snapshot and I have been having all kinds of weird issues.. including:
Launcher icons moving / reconfiguring
Loud Beep or Buzz at random times, eg. switching to speaker phone, opening contacts, etc
Phone was uploading at 6mb/s maxing out my wifi upstream bandwidth without any sign of what was doing the data transfer...
Needless to say I'd like to wipe everything and start fresh with CM12.
My recovery screen has the following info:
***TAMPERED***
***UNLOCKED***

I am on TWRP V2.7.1.0
I've browsed the guides and how-to's and still am not certain what the proper procedure is to update from where I currently am (or where to find the latest trusted source for Sprint M8 firmware)
I'd like to do it manually so I actually learn and know what I'm doing in the end.
Any help? Should my first step be using Fastboot to update TWRP?

If you have S-off I would take a look through the Sprint M8 forum for the latest firmware or start with an recent RUU. Then update TWRP through fastboot and install CM 12 since it is not likely to run well on the older firmware.
