Rooted M8, now trying to unroot so I can get updates.

Hey all
Just bought a M8 and I wanted to root if for a few apps I use, however I didn't know that by putting a custom recovery mod I would not be able to update my phone. So I am trying my best to get it back to stock however I can not find a RUU that matches my CID. Could someone please help me find a way to get my phone back to stock so I can get updates with no problems.
-Cheers
P.S: Lesson learnt, always back up your phone before attempting this bull**** -.-, miss my s4. Could find anything I needed on that thing.

I have a posted a link to a backup on mega. Search me.

You don't need to unroot to get updates. If you're s-off just flash a stock recovery. If your s-on flash a stock recovery and relock the boot loader. Takes about 2 mins to do either.

When I mean unroot, i mean my recovery mode wont allow me to do uodates due to sense.

Like I already said all you need do is flash one of the stock recoveries from this thread, use whichever you had originally for your CID.

You can't ota with a custom recovery.

I love ViperROM and would never want to go back. They are very good about getting updates out pretty quick. So not long after an official OTA comes I think Viper is quick on it. I believe we already had one for the M8. My friend has tried a few roms and thinks Viper is the best.

Hey man, I wouldn't of asked this question if I could simply find one to match. On that thread I can not find a single one that matches my phone.

no idea, anyway to find out?

I just looked at the software version of my phone under About and downloaded the matching recovery. Then I flashed the recovery, installed the OTA update, and reflashed TWRP after.

Did you read anything on the stock backup page?
As long as the base number is the same then you should be able to flash a recovery that matches. You have software version 1.54.708.5 so just flash one that begins with 1.54.
The nearest is:
STOCK RECOVERY 1.54.707.5
Nothing will happen so just go ahead and try it.
Here's the OTA, but it won't install unless you already have the stock OS installed.

[Q] Go back to stock

Hi there.
I was wondering if anyone could help me. I want to go back to stock recovery to perform an OTA (4.4.4). I'm currently using ViperOne m8 2.5. My Cid is called HTC_Y13. But I couldn't find it anywhere.
What to do?
I'm Danish by the way. My phone is a One M8 and I believe it's the international model..

here's the steps to get you back to stock
download this > https://mega.co.nz/#!VcZAgIgT!flJca5C_hRl6pgAn5EXp4qbJCl0ONjZB8PHNylw5f3Y
while it's downloading go into TWRP and choose Backup
uncheck everything except boot ... do the backup
this will create a folder on your sdcard TWRP/BACKUPS/your_Serial_no/Todays date
when the download is complete extract it to the Todays date folder. Make sure it's just files in the folder and no folders
now boot back to TWRP and choose restore and restore the backup / make sure system and boot are checked.
the last step is to put back the stock recovery
use this one > http://d-h.st/WB4
you flash it the same as TWRP
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot
your phone should now be back to stock and ready for OTA update

COLLECTION of Stock backup's
Your CID is HTC__Y13 you can download any x.xx.401.x backup from that thread.
The WWE (World Wide English) nandroid backups have the same main version build numbers. All these nands have the main number that is based on the x.xx.401.xx build and all these CIDS are compatible
HTC__001
HTC__E11
HTC__102
HTC__203
HTC__405
HTC__Y13 <<<THERE IS YOUR CID
HTC__304
HTC__A07
HTC__002
HTC__016
HTC__032
HTC__J15
HTC__M27
HTC__A48
HTC__K18
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download any x.xx.401.x backup (HTC__001 will be fine) and backup through correct custom recovery(Philz if it was Philz, TWRP if it was a TWRP created backup).
You can also download any x.xx.401.x stock recovery for your device OR you can grab the latest stock recovery from the OTA(Copy OTA.zip to your PC and extract the recovery.img file inside the firmware.zip).

Returning Stock
I'm also a little bit confuse with all information. I've been tryng to solve my ROM problem about 2 days.
I have flashed the ARHD 21.0 on my phone but a lot of errors are happening (common ones like no Wi-fi and other more annoying like extended reboot time). I'm trying to get back to the stock ROM to perform a update of my firmware but I'm kind of very lost in the forum.

I'm very afraid to flash something wrong because everything went wrong with me. What version should I flash? I guess my phone is the International version (since I'm a brazilian and HTC don't sell phones here)
Thanks in advance.

No I guess your phone is an International version, not because you're Brazillian but because your CID says "HTC__001" which is International. Like You no doubt read in the 2 posts just above yours, download a nandroid backup for your device and restore it via the correct custom recovery. I even put a link to the thread with the nandroid collection in my first post here!!!
Just download the nandroid for your device, it'll be the 1.54.401.x backup seeing as you're still on the 3.16bootloader. 3.18 was 4.4.3 and 4.4.4 is 3.19 so you're probably still on 1.54.401.x. Download the 1.54.401 backup and restore in custom recovery. Afterwards just flash back the stock recovery.img
Make sure recovery.img is in your adb folder and boot into bootloader and use fastboot flash recovery recovery.img <That'll give you stock recovery again and you can reboot back into OS and download/install and update the OTA/Firmware as it comes all the way to 3.28.401.6/7

Sorry man, but I did. I read the post before mine. But I like I said, I'm trying to do this about 2 days and everything went wrong, so I thought that the version HTC__Y13 could have a different procedure that HTC__001.
I'm not the kind of user that thinks the problem is just happening to him. I read a lot of things but seems that more I read, more doubt I get.
Anyway, thank you very much for the fast answer. I will try what you said. :good:
Just one doubt. My ROM is 4.4.4 and my bootloader is 3.16. Is this wrong?

Yes, the 4.4.4 ROM MUST have 3.28.xxx.x firmware in order to function properly. You're still on much older firmware which is why you have excessively long boot up times, wifi/data problems(Outdated radio) etc. In order for the ARHD 21.0 to work correctly you must be on the correct firmware(4.4.4 android version, 3.28.401.6/7 <<<If you're international version which you are). This has been the case for some time now, you can do an easy google search "htc one m8 xda ..." along with something like "slow boot up" etc and you'll see that all of them had the same problems, outdated firmware.
Which is why you'll have to go back to stock and do the OTA updates as it comes. If you were S-OFF you could have done it manually and flashed the firmware manually but since you're S-ON you can't do it. Flashing Radio firmware you'll need to either be a) S-OFF or b) Official HTC OTA.

Thanks man! I'm now on 3.28.401.6.
Before your post, I hadn't understood that I needed restore from 1.54.401.x backup (I almost restore 3.28.401.7).
Firewater didn't work in my device, so I have to pay $25 to be S-OFF (and $25 is a lot of money when converting to reais - currency of Brazil)
I will come back tomorrow to give you Thanks (reach my max today).
PS: The 3.28.401.7 update didn't arrive to my device.

Confused!!!
I'm really confused!! I'm not that hardcore at all..
All i want is to update from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4 so I can Update from ViperOne 2.5 to 3.0.
I tried to flash a Stock Recovery called "stock_recovery_1.54.401.5_recovery.img" and I think it succeeded. Hard to see a difference. But I followed a guide made by Sakitech on Youtube. Then I searched for any updates. But it said "No update currently available". So I just flashed the custom Recovery again.
Sorry.. But I'm a Dummy

I am having some major issues too. Im just wanting to go back to stock so I can use sunshine to S-off my phone. My CID is ORANG001 so i got a nandroid backup 1.54.61.5 which is the correct stock and the corresponding stock recovery, all went well but not only does Sunshine still refuse to work, if i take any OTA updates, the first installs ok but then my wifi wont work, ie the switch will not turn green it just goes grey, any ideas!!?!!?

I think I can help you. After all my mistakes, I think I have learn something.
To update to 4.4.4 (and for ViperOne 3.0) you need to update your firmware first. To do that, you have 3 options:
1) S-OFF and update your firmware by flashing a simple file.
2) S-ON and search your EXACTLY modelid and cidnum on this thread
3) -That one BerndM14 help me in previous posts - Check your firmware and return your phone (ROM and Recovery) to stock basing on firmware version. This post explain better.
Like BerndM14 said to you, it is just necessary you to download any x.xx.401.x backup AND any x.xx.401.x stock recovery. After that, follow the instructions of the second question of the post. You will unzip the backup and inside, find a file called 'boot.emmc.win' or 'boot.win'. You have to flash this (fastboot), do a full wipe and then restore the backup (custom recovery). After all you return to bootloader (rebooting) and flash the recovery with this:
fastboot flash recovery <recoveryName>
That it. At least, what I understand. Any advanced user could confirm this informations?

I think I got a Little closer now. Let med undrstand this S-OFF right. Does that make everything a lot easier??
I tried flashing Again yesterday, but without any luck. I downloaded a major stock backup zip file, but I'm not sure how to flash it. I wish I could Just hand it over to someone, but I vant find anyone here in Denmark who is cabable at doing this. ?.
I think The biggest problem is that i dont know where, when and what to flash ?

I think S-OFF let the things much more easier. My m8 is S-ON so I don't know a lot of this, but there is some tutorial about firewater. If this tool doesn't work for you (like happen to me), you will have to pay $25 for Sunshine. From what I read, this method is guaranteed to get S-OFF.
With S-OFF, you will find some posts with updates of the firmware. So you don't have to go back to stock to update it.
To continue from where you stop, you have to follow this post. Like I said before, download any x.xx.401.x backup AND any x.xx.401.x stock recovery and follow the instructions of "How do i restore the stock nandroid backup" question (same post).
You don't flash the major stock backup zip file. You RESTORE it, on your custom recovery (TWRP or Philz) according from which recovery the backup was made (for example, if you download this one: 1.54.401.5 - TWRP Thanks to Fisha21. This backup was made on TWRP so you have to restore it on TWRP. But before restore, you need to flash the "boot.img or boot.emmc.win" file that is INSIDE this backup zip file. After that you make a full wipe in recovery and then RESTORE the major backup (remember, you don't restore the zip file, you have to unzip it on your phone like is said on the "How do i restore the stock nandroid backup" question of the post).
After all, you will flash the recovery of the same version that you download on the same post.

You looked your firmware version, befere restore the 1.54.61.5 version? You have to check the CID AND the main version of your phone, like it said on the beggining of the post:
Take the main version number and CID and check if it exists in the collection below ! If it doesn't you can always make a request here.

My main version number is 2.26.61.5 I think but I asked weather using 1.54.61.5 would be OK and was told it would be fine as its *.**.61.* based backup. Is this incorrect as they use a different firmware base?? Is this whats causing my issues??

Because I'm at work and can't check to be 100% sure I know its definitely 2.26.61.* just not sure what the last number is. Feel like I have ended up with a phone that is going to be stuck in its current state forever now, can't upgrade, can't downgrade. What a mess

And if you flash the recovery and restore a new backup of your current version (COLLECTION of Stock backup's) ?
After the OTA, your wi-fi stop work but what about your mobile internet?
I don't know what can actually happen, just giving you ideas

That's where I got the stock nandroid from, orang001 1.54.61.5 TWRP. Got the matching recovery, all flashed correctly but then like you say after a OTA my WiFi stopped working, mobile data is fine. The WiFi toggle in settings, won't switch over to green, just goes grey.

I think S-OFF let the things much more easier. My m8 is S-ON so I don't know a lot of this, but there is some tutorial about firewater. If this tool doesn't work for you (like happen to me), you will have to pay $25 for Sunshine. From what I read, this method is guaranteed to get S-OFF.
With S-OFF, you will find some posts with updates of the firmware. So you don't have to go back to stock to update it.
To continue from where you stop, you have to follow this post. Like I said before, download any x.xx.401.x backup AND any x.xx.401.x stock recovery and follow the instructions of "How do i restore the stock nandroid backup" question (same post).
You don't flash the major stock backup zip file. You RESTORE it, on your custom recovery (TWRP or Philz) according from which recovery the backup was made (for example, if you download this one: 1.54.401.5 - TWRP Thanks to Fisha21. This backup was made on TWRP so you have to restore it on TWRP. But before restore, you need to flash the "boot.img or boot.emmc.win" file that is INSIDE this backup zip file. After that you make a full wipe in recovery and then RESTORE the major backup (remember, you don't restore the zip file, you have to unzip it on your phone like is said on the "How do i restore the stock nandroid backup" question of the post).
After all, you will flash the recovery of the same version that you download on the same post.
---------- Post added at 09:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------
You looked your firmware version, befere restore the 1.54.61.5 version? You have to check the CID AND the main version of your phone, like it said on the beggining of the post:
Take the main version number and CID and check if it exists in the collection below ! If it doesn't you can always make a request here.

I Flashed a file named boot.emmc.win from inside the unzipped backup. I moved the file to my adb_fastboot folder and flashed it this way: fastboot flash recovery boot.emmc.win
Then I had trouble gaining access to custom recovery (TWRP) so I tried flashing the custom recovery again. I got in! Made a full wipe, chose "install", twrp > BACKUPS > Serialnumber > Backup.zip. But it failed!!!!! It was missing a md5 file???
I'm starting to regret all this root-mess

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

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

S-off and cid- 11111111 enabled by default

I have recently bought a new htc one m8 which came with lollipop out of the box and yesterday I noticed that my phone is having s-off enabled and cid - 11111111 by default. I haven't done anything to my phone (no root access and bootloader is locked).... So my question is will I receive OTA updates in future? And is it good to have this options(cid and s-off) enabled by default. Pls help... ?

Hello kkaranjkar,
As long as you got your bootloader locked - and even with an unlocked bootloader - you'll be abled to install al OTA you gonna receive on your One M8. Only question I got: did you in fact by a new phone, or purchase a used one? If it is a used one it is of some importance to have look which ROM/Firmware version you got installed on it, as some sell theire phones to others leaving a before installed custom ROM on it.
You could check that under "Settings > About Phone > Software-Information > Software-Number"

Yes you are right. New firmware will be included with the OTA if you receive one.

Which means I don't have to change my cid from super cid in order to get an update
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

It's not 100% sure, you have to check and make sure that the custom rom isn't incomplete. The 2 main things that are important are :
-The rom has to be factory stock, so no missing standard apps
-you must have the stock recovery and NOT a custom recovery
If the phone does not meet these 2 criteria the ota will fail ! And indeed root and an unlocked bootloader is not important, that will work. So at this point we can not say you are good to go for sure !

I've heard of rare instances of s-off from the factory. But I've never heard of SuperCID (1111111) from the factory. I suspect this is a used and modded phone, returned to stock condition and fraudulently (or at least unwittingly) sold as "new". Or refurbished.

If you want OTA updates, then yes, you need to change the CID to match a known variant. Depends on where you are, but a lot of non-US folks use the WWE (world-wide English) variant.

No, your phone storage will not be erased by changing your CID. (Your CID is literally just a few bytes on a special partition, but you need to be S-off to write it) It might be erased if you use an RUU, depending on how you apply it. The only time phone storage is erased is if you used the bootloader unlock token from HTCdev or you used the Windows based RUU tool.
If you use a Nandroid backup of WWE and switch the CID to match, you will get OTA updates without erasing user data.

A question on Custom Kernels

Hello, i was trying to install a custom ROM on my HTC One M8 (S-on) but the phone keep stuck at the HTC logo.. however i updated my firmware through fastboot (yes while having s-on) and flashed a ViperOneM8 Android version 6.0.1 that worked. Everything was fine until i start playing a game that require a fast response from touch screen (King of Thieves) and had a bug (not responding for a second), i contacted the support and they said that they didn't test the game on Custom ROMs. I was wondering does Custom Kernels effect the apps bugs in positive way so i flash one or the app should be already tested on Custom ROMs ? Sorry for the long message. Thanks

Sounds like a developer making excuses. I don't see a custom ROM like Viper (based on stock Sense) being the cause of a second-long touch screen latency. While kernels can increase performance; I don't see it fixing such a bug (long touch screen latency in a single app).
To verify, flash the stock ROM, and see if the bug persists. I have a feeling the app just doesn't work right on this device.

So its probably the app has a bug on 6.0.1 Marshmallow? Before i update my phone the game was running just fine on Kitkat 4.4.2. I can't run a stock ROM. I didn't find the right one by begining and because of S-on i can't change the CID to run uncompatible RUU.. plus after i updated my firmware i tried to run the backup data from recovery (TWRP) and it keep stuck on HTC logo so i don't think i can back to stock easily
Thank you for your advice

"Can't find" the stock ROM is not the same as you "can't run a stock ROM". The vast majority of M8 versions have some way of returning to stock ROM.
Provide more info, and we might be able to point you to RUU or stock TWRP backup. Do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number).

TWRP versions numbers sometimes are incompatible depending on firmware version. So it may be that you just aren't using the right TWRP version for the firmware you updated to. I'll need to look at the info from getvar to determine if that is the case. Plus, what version TWRP is currently installed.

Scroll down to Post #3 of the linked thread, to find 6.16.708.1 referenced by ckpv5.
6.x versions are Marshmallow.
I doubt KK ROMs will work with your current MM firmware. The KK OS is too old to work with the current MM firmware (from what I've seen in other threads).

PS: At Fastboot when i command "adb devices" it shows blank under "List of devices attached" even the device response when i command "Getvar All" or Boot into Bootloader from the HTC One (M8) Toolkit.

You can't run adb commands in fastboot. And vice versa, you can't run fastboot commands in adb. They are related, but 2 different interfaces.
Also I would suggest stop using the toolkit. Its causes more problems than it solves (especially since it hasn't been updated in nearly 2 years). And the toolkit shortcuts the learning experience. You would/should know the difference between adb and fastboot, if not for the toolkit. Also, the toolkit is probably the reason for the extreme obsolete (2 years old) version of TWRP being installed. Which also caused your main version being blank in getvar (known bug in old TWRP builds).

Why don't you try hTC_Asia_HK_6.16.708.1 RUU?

If the KK ROM won't work what do you suggest as alternative? Exactly, i flashed this recovery from the toolkit because my phone was stuck on HTC logo when ever i tried to enter into stock recovery and it was a main reason i couldn't update my system through OTA..

That RUU is for Hong Kong. I don't that's gonna work unless your phone supports it. Otherwise you might completely destroy your phone.

I'm sorry I just don't want him to destroy his phone, because ive seen people that flashed the Hong Kong RUU and completely messed up their device.

Ok, for 6.16.708.1 download this RUU
I tested, this RUU does work on my Hong Kong phone.
