[Q] SIM unlock complete, but unable to update. - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Followed this post and was able to unlock:

Could this be caused by Custom Recovery TWRP 2.7?
Battery is at 30%, but I don't think it has anything to do with this.

Stock Rom? If so, it will only install with stock recovery.
TWRP recovery only installs custom Rom/s and custom Rom updates (if the custom Rom supports ota updates).

Follow the link I have posted.On the first post there are stock roms.Scroll down a bit and It is written in BIG LETTERS Stock Recoveries.Download the recovery which you need.Then flash it via fastboot.For RUU to work you need to have a stock recovery.
If you are a sprint owner check this thread.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2736048 Read the OP very carefully before posting.

Update via OTA to JB (with HOX unlocked bootloader, rooted & stock ROM)

Today I receive this message:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

So, before do bad thing, I want to know if I can update my HOX via OTA, without re-unlock bootloader or anything else.
Right now,I'm using the stock rom, I only unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery in order to root it.
Thanks
You need to re flash stock recovery

I already do it and nothing. Does anyone know if I update the firmware to 1.36 (my CID is HTC__044) and flash stock boot.img will work? Anyone can provide me just the boot.img file?
And if I flash the stock RUU 2.17.707.3 (which is the one I got) I don't have to update the firmware manually?
All I want is to update to stock JB via OTA.
Thanks.
What is the question?
The fact you got the update means you are good to go. Probably if you boot in bootloader it says re-locked?
The update will update your hboot to 1.36 and firmware to stock 3.14
Where you will lose cwm and root.
If you want root then you need to re-unlock it by cmd and with unlock file you got from the first time.

The question is why I can't update?. As I say already flash stock recovery, and I have the bootloader unlocked.
But what happens when you try to update?

After download the update, the phone reboot and an exclamation red icon appears, then reboot again and you can see that nothing is updated.
Did you got the smaller update too or not? When i flashed stock recovery from RUU i got the small battery update first.
Do you have stock recovery from when you unlocked the phone?

Yes, also I flashed again but nothing. I think that the problem might be that I uninstall some bloatware apps. Anyone know which bloatware apps are updated with the OTA update?
Ah that's the problem, your rom has to be as it came out of the box ! Otherwise it won't work
I should back this rom up and copy it to pc, then run the matching ruu to get back to stock or get the matching nandroid backup in the general section - nandroid backup collection from matt95 !
It's he easiest way in my opinion

[Q] Upgrading to Android 4.3 (N7100XXUEML6)

Hi everyone... I tried looking for the answer to my question but didn't find any thread that covered the information for latest firmware (Samsung introduces something new everytime!).
So, I was using Pheonix ROM v17 with the MJ5 Bootloader, and then installed Android Revolution HD 20.1 (I don't know which BL I'm now using)!
I never flashed a stock rom using odin or through some other source below.
Now I want to flash the stock rooted and deodexed firmware. The OP doesn't tell anything specifically about a bootloader. We have to flash the rom through the recovery.
My question is, that if I install that rom via recovery, will my bootloader change? Will there be any recovery issues? Will I be able to re-flash other roms like the ARHD? Please tell me, because I am experiencing some serious issues with the battery and I hope that a clean stock install would fix this...
Any help would be highly appreciated!

Bootloader won't change irrespective of what which ROM you flash,i am using philz touch recovery ever since i was on 4.1.2 and now i am running 4.4.2 probam version and been on mj5 bootloader ever since i made the jump from 4.1.2
Recovery CAN NOT flash bootloader, so whatever you flash from recovery be assured that your bootloader will stay the same. The only way to flash bootloader is through ODIN or regular KIES/OTA update....
Thank you so much for the reply. I can finally flash in peace!

@dalanik but what if an official firmware update is released...? For e.g. If I'm prompted to install the NA1 Firmware, will my bootloader still get updated?

If you are on STOCK, then yes, that would be through OTA or via KIES. But as I said - you would have to be STOCK in order to receive update.
So, i just flashed this rom and im getting this error with the supersu...

[Q] Bootloader, CWM & Rom help

I have managed to root my device after the 10P firmware! FYI, I used Android Kingo Root.
After looking into many posts, forums, etc... I have come to the conclusion that unlocking the bootloader is going to be trickier than any other device I have been successful with. I want to install CM 10.2 and CWM 6+, however, I cannot find solid information on how to unlock the bootloader for this unit. I would have liked to install the latest 4.4.2 from AT&T, but the device was rooted prior and AT&T will not honor the phone for the upgrade. At this point, I feel it would be easier to just install a custom ROM instead of trying to put the AT&T stock back into the unit.
Most of the info I see seems overly tricky and doubtful. I have downloaded FreeGee, but, in version 1.9.23 there isn't an option for unlock or disable security,(I have emailed the devs for the app). I also have gprorecovery.apk, but, I am deathly afraid to use it as I cannot find ANY material about it anywhere and I am worried to brick the one phone I absolutely love.
If someone has the knowledge, please share. Also, feel free to add in your experience and pitfalls with this device after manipulating the software. I am not 100% sold on CM, so if you want to suggest a great ROM...Feel free.
I appreciate the help and suggestions in advance.
No unlocked bootloader for the gpro. Sorry dude.

And then reboot to recovery as normal to install the ROM? I have read so much information that states you have to do some special presses of the buttons to get recovery to load. What are you running on yours?

Once you install recovery press power + volume up (asuming you powered down or resetted your device of course) until the lg logo appears ( some white letters will appear on the top left corner, release power button when they do). That will take you to the recovery. I'm. Using a cwm/twrp combo. I flash everything i need with cwm, twrp i keep since this phone has a tendency of going into a recovery bootloop and only twrp can get you out of it. Always keep your flashing files on the internal storage, sometimes flashing from sd card wont work.

Second this, the download link for the stock recovery doesn't work. A mirror would be awesome.
Can you reupload the stock recovery? Link doesn't work.

Get into HTC Desire 300\img and there are the stock recovery files I think but don't test it yet.
edit2. One more thing
Will I lose root after this?
I flashed the stock recovery that came with an OTA update from my carrier, needed to apply a system update to it (sadly no new Android version).

Is rooting that simple?

So I am about to load the ND8 stock tar over my MD4 rom (because I want to ultimately load the latest CM11)... but I am confused.
One of the posts here seems to loosly suggest that after loading the samsung stock tar of MD8, I can simply follow up with ODIN of TWRP. From there I can then load any rooted rom and have root?
Is this right? Seems that in the past, one needed root before installing a recovery.

Yes, but I highly recommend Philz Recovery over TWRP, it has zero problems with TouchWiz and AOSP, TWRP seems to have problems with TouchWiz. Philz also has a root option in the recovery so you can just root your stock ROM and download SuperSU from the Play Store and done.

Then just run it through Odin (I suggest you uncheck Auto Reboot and wait until it says PASS and then pull the battery and go into Recovery, go to Philz settings and there will be a ReRoot option. Then reboot and download SuperSU from the Play Store, and you have root).
