thanks for the reply man its a great idea for keeping everything in one place but my problem is my cid is T-MOB 101 and version is **.**.707**(4.28.707.10) and the version there is **.**.111.** so the question is can i still flash that nandroid ?? because i see in lots of post that cid and the version should match to get back to stock isn't that right ??

you only need to match the CID, that nand should work on your phone, you need to match the RUU and not the nand what's your HBOOT version actually?

well you need a certain HBOOT to run the 2.17 nand... but i don't remember which was the required HBOOT for 2.17. the best thing would be to update the HBOOT to the latest version and then flash the nand backup

can you tell me how can i do that ?? becasue the hboot also require me revert to stock rom and lock the phone to finish it aint that the thing ??? or is there any other way i can do that ?? actually there is an update of hboot for my cid..i tried flashing it but it didnt worked for me ...

Yeah, you need to be locked. When you unlock again, it will wipe the phone
Take a nandroid backup and then
fastboot oem lock
Then try hboot update again.

I use the RUU. And now since I managed to flash a custom rom on my M8, everytime it boot with a "Google" sign and the phone take a long time to boot up and it keeps rebooting all the time. Could you please help me out here?

OK, you HAVE to follow the guide in Post #2 of the GPe RUU thread to go back to a Sense-based ROM cause the partitions are changed with the GPe conversion. Until you do that it will fail to update any ROMs

BerndM14 said:
Download the ROM again and try again, if it fails copy the .zip file to your computer, use a program like 7zip to extract the files and then use 7zip to zip it again.
It's strange but I did find that some of the .zip files that gets downloaded, firmware, ROMs etc can't be opened and read, throws errors even in windows but you can unzip it with 7zip and then re-zip it and it works fine.
I read somewhere(Can't recall where) that remote 32 header error occurs because the zip can't be properly read or unzipped, so perhaps the above might be a solution... I'm hoping so at least :fingers-crossed:

Do you really need this 3.29.118.9 stock recovery ?
Are you updating to lollipop 4.19.118.2 ?
If yes, after you download the OTA, select install later. Copy the OTA zip from internal storage\Download folder to PC. Open the OTA zip with 7-zip, you'll see firmware.zip. Open firmware.zip you'll see recovery.img
Extract out this recovery.img -- this is the one that you need to do OTA update.
I see your edited post ... read what I said about which recovery to use for OTA update

Can be Lollipop

Thanks, for me Lollipop is ABSOLUTELLY okay, any newer version okay. I just do not understand just dependencies, what old/new versions can work,
so, simply saying: you suggest to take this recovery.img from Lollipop (which is newer one) then fastboot flash it over TWRP
then boot and all will be fine (i assume my phone will do rest of the update automatically), I tried to find, but had no idea where OTA's are stored
on the phone's card.
SO, WHAT I HAVE DONE:
1. I copied the OTA file using TWRP frm External SD card / Download folder
"OTA_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_TMO_PL_4.19.118.2-3.29.118.9_R_release_41700614gu164aa4tc255j.zip"
(looks like the android protect this OTA FILE file, so i enter TRWP then copied it to PC)
2. extracted firmware.zip to PC (it need to be extracted to re-extract again - recovery.img)
3. I do: fastboot recovery.img -> to my M8 phone
So, the phone started again under android 4.4.4 and i started update to v 5.x
What to say: YOU ARE THE MASTER!!! , GOD BLESS YOU - stuff solved THANKS! A POINT FOR YOU.

Help with Updated to Sense 4.4.4?

I'm keen to grab one of the new 4.4.4 Sense-based ROMs (insertcoin or viper), but it would seem that I need to somehow update my firmware.
Problem is, I can't figure out how to do it on my device. I tried using Firewater, but it gives me a 'whelp' messsage and can't S-OFF me, and I can't find an updated version of my firmware to flash.
Can anyone help me? I'm a little lost now I think. I'm using an NZ Vodafone M8, getvar is below. I'm currently running VanirAOSP and TWRP recovery.

Use Sunshine to get s-off. You have to pay $25, but it's worth it. Then you can go SuperCID and flash firmware from any GSM carrier.

Thanks, but still no luck - I've tried running Sunshine now, and it says that my device is incompatible.
Is there anything else I can do? Is there some way to roll back to stock and update that way?

If your already using a 4.4.4 ROM than Sunshine won't work .what you need to do is flash back to complete stock with stock kernel along with root and run Sunshine again

Thanks - had already done that though. There is no VODAP021 available on that thread. One guy upped it a while ago, but then removed it later.
So I guess i'm just stuck then?

Good for you....saves you a expensive paperweight. If you want a M8 stock backup try my thread.
And people should look better what they link to, and you should read better ! Want a working phone.....stay on the M8 forum and do not go outside that !

Thanks - that repidgator link no longer works though. The one on the frontpage does, so I have the file now (KOT49H_1.12.710.17_VODAP021_CWM.zip). Just trying to figure out how to restore from it.
Thanks for all your help!

My bad on the first link I was driving and shouldn't have even been looking at my phone.have you made any backups of Roms ever?
You need the the backup directory in your file manager so you can place the extracted backup file in it.
If you don't have the any backup of any ROM than boot to your custom recovery and make a backup of the ROM your on now .when backup completes than reboot to your regular system and go into your root browser so you can place extracted backup file in backup folder .
Boot to recovery again and make sure the backup exists when you tap restore,if you have two backups and you notice the one you placed is one of them than you should be good , restore the backup like you would any other backup
