[Q] European Nandroid on Latin America HTC

Hello everyone,
I have a HTC One M8 purchased on Colombia unlocked, here is the info:

finished. total time: 0.007s
As you can see, my CID is "HTC_332" and my version-main: 1.57.599.1. I installed a custom recovery (TWRP) and I forgot to backup my stock recovery now I can't receive OTA updates (doubting that I receive something as my phone is from Latin America...).
The thing is I have download a 1.54.401.10 nandroid backup and also the 1.54.401.10 stock recovery (both from Europe), my phone has bootloader unlock and S-ON. I was able to do a restored from a nandroid backup and also flash the stock recovery (also both from Europe). After this my phone is working just fine, still on my bootloader shows "TAMPERED" and "Unlocked".
Well my question is this, after doing this am I going to be able to receive OTA's updates even if my phone has CID from Latin America (htc_332) ?
It is going to affect something because I flashed an Europe Firmware and stock recovery on my phone?
What is the difference between Firmware 1.57.599.1 and 1.54.401.10? (which one is better or which one you guys recommend?)
Thanks in advance for any info.

You will receive OTA but it will fail the verification and you won't be able to install it.
What you have now is same as you flash a custom ROM. No working OTA for your device.
You can only do OTA with your own stock ROM and stock Recovery.

Thank you for the Quick respond, is there a way to get the stock recovery for my version-main: 1.57.599.1?
What about if I change my CID to SuperCID will be able to receive OTA updates with the European Stock ROM?

I don't see anywhere stock recovery 1.57.599.1, only see one backup.
You can only change to SuperCID when your device is S-Off.
To receive and install European OTA, you need S-Off then change to any EU CID (a few of them) or SuperCID and change your MID currently 0P6B16000 to 0P6B10000

Thank you for your answer, well I was trying to make my phone S-OFF but Firewater is not working on my phone, error message ("Remember the golden rule, never take OTA"...) for some reason is not taking it, any Ideas?

Hi Folks,
I just S-OFF my HTC One M8, Change my MID to 0P6B10000 install a stock rom (1.54.401.10) and also its Stock Recovery. After that I remove the tampered and the unlock notification, I ran the "Check Update"and SCORE!!! I receive an OTA Update. Now my question is this: If I change my MID to the Unlocked one (0P6B12000) Do I will receive OTAS anyways? (even if my bootloader is unlocked and my phone is rooted)
Thanks again.

IMEI is personal information, and you do NOT want it posted on the internet. You really should delete it from the first post.

I didn't knew it, thanks for advice me... as you guys might see, my English is not really good,IMEI Deleted.!
So, can I switch to the Unlocked MID version from European MID version and still receive OTA's? (rememeber, my bootloader is Unlocked and My phone is rooted)
Thanks again.

You will be, as long as MID, CID and stock ROM (as well as FW of course) you installed all match each other, as those things are what the OTA server is going to check and match.

Your MID don't has to be changed, as it is the HTC WWE MID. and with superCID you definitely will receive OTA.
HTC WWE is in fact the best MID you could have, as far as I can imagine

then better read in general section some guide, you need fastboot and adb on your computer. You don't know how to go in bootloader and you want to flash rom. Please be more specific. Not like I am using ViperX say I take phone with installed ViperX. It is not so ease to restore phone and in case you don't know how to use fastboot!
And now my answare download fastboot and adb go in bootloader and run the command. To go in bootloader tutn off your phone then press volume down + power button until you are in bootloader.

Now first download this RUU , charge the phone to full relock your bootloader and run the RUU as administrator.
to relock bootloader use the command fastboot oem lock if your bootloader say Unlocked you must run the command if say RELOCK then you are ready to run the RUU
And if you think I didn't see you post me the result from other command you are wrong

thank you sir, ill try it now.

[Q] Stock ROM question

I currently have TWRP and CM12.1 installed, but the gps isn't working. I've heard flashing a stock rom then getting a gps lock and flashing back to CM resolves this. My question is, does flashing the stock ruu remove TWRP, or the hboot recovery option? My understanding is flashing the ruu should just flash the stock rom and I can easily flash back to CM12.1 from TWRP, is this correct?

flashing a stock RUU will make your phone full stock, so TWRP will be replaced with the stock recovery, its not a problem, after flashing the RUU, just unlock your bootloader again and reflash TWRP recovery, simple as that.

Is there such a thing as just the stock ROM so I don't have to unlock the bootloader again? I've only seen stock RUUs.

depends, are you s-on or s-off ?
there are stock roms but I doubt that will fix your issue, you will probably need to use a full RUU package, if your s-on, you will need to relock the bootloader to flash it, and therefore have to uinlock again after your finished, if your s-off then you can flash it whilst unlocked, no need to re-unlock again.

here's your RUU, just run it as normal, after its finishede flashing, you will be full stock, no need to lock the bootloader as your s-off, once finished and booted, you can then reflash TWRP recovery and try your rom again

Rooted HTC One m8 Lollipop to Marshmallow

Hi. I read up on various threads and could not find the correct tutorial or method for this?
My HTC One m8 is rooted, unlocked, S-On, and running Lollipop with a GPE ROM.
I would like to upgrade to Marshmallow.
What is the easiest method to do so? No thread I've stumbled upon appears to be what I am looking for, but then again I'm awful at this stuff and also just kind of cautious because I've run into many issues in this kind of work and I just want to make sure I am on the right path.
Thanks, everyone.

Did you root the phone yourself? If so, you should have ADB on your PC.

As mentioned, my phone is S-ON, and the link warns that in order to flash the latest firmware, I need to be S-OFF.
Is there another way?
If you're going to tell me I need S-OFF, I should mention I have tried, countless times and hours, to achieve S-OFF, with my friends too, and we just could not manage to get my phone to S-OFF.
So an S-ON method would be awesome.

You have the latest firmware available which according to Captain Throwback you should be able to flash his MM ROM and it should boot just fine.

Excellent. Thank you!
So, to refresh my memory:
1. Download the ROM on my Mac
2. Put my phone into bootloader and connect USB
3. Wipe everything?
4. Flash the ROM
5. Success?

Yep, but do not flash the SU in recovery if it asks if you want to. It will cause you to lose root, if the ROM you are using already has a patched kernel for root.

Hi guys,
will this method work also with build number 4.16.401.10?? My Phone is also rooted, unlocked, s-on and at time running Revolution HD 43.0.
Is it in enough to Boot in recovery (TWRP) and do a Clean install? Or will i have problems with my root Access? Thank u very much!

M8 only boots into fastboot

Hi guys, I need help bringing my phone back to life. I tried to return my phone back to stock by running a RUU. But now I've learnt (the hard way) it was the wrong RUU and now I can only boot into bootloader. There is no recovery I can boot into. This is the getvar:

I tried to find the correct HBOOT and CID version RUU but to no avail. I've tried another RUU for 0P6B but I think it was MID 0P6B1000 while mine is 0P6B3000. And most other solutions involve have S-OFF which mine isn't. I'm not sure what else I can do. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I think you want the RUU for 4.18.708.12, if such RUU exists. I don't know if it exists or not, but this at least give you a starting point to look (seems like you were somewhat guessing before).

Don't think 4.18.708.12 RUU exists.
If your bootloader is unlocked ... you can install TWRP 2.8.7.0 then restore 4.18.708.12 stock non-rooted backup and install 4.18.708.12 stock recovery.img then do OTA to Marshmallow 6.16.708.1

#4 is correct
boot into fastboot means that ur system got some problems
or even isnt exist
restore a TWRP backup or flash a stock rom will help

I agree, if there is no RUU for the version, than the way forward is to restore a stock TWRP backup. Unlocked bootloader is required.
