Hi all
I really need your help and advise.
Is regards to HTC M8 asia region
I did rooted my phone, s-off it by software and modded it with Harmon Kardon software
Now as asia region got the new updated software which i assume should be the HTC software 2.22.707 (655.21mb)
After downloading the 1st time and installed the updated, i thought everything was fine, and what happened was it prompted me again and again.
So i redownload again and the same prompting pops up again and i check i am still on 1.54.707.7 software, is there anyway to go thru this issue so i can download and update once and for all without it prompting me again?
***pls note, i did not back up the original asia firmware.
Regards
Removed the HK mod before you make OTA update.
Use hk_disable_and_adsp_stock_v3.zip from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52330528&postcount=1
If you need stock ROM and recovery ... check this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376
If you need untouched 1.54.707.7 firmware - http://sourceforge.net/projects/htconem8/files/1.54.707.7_firmware.zip/download
thank you very much, i will try it right away.
When i download the firmware, and open the zip file, the zip file is invalid. Another other links?

Ok, i've got no ota update so i downloaded and put zip file on root sd card directory..
now, what should i do?
i don't know
thanks
It should update itself, when you check for updates, just go to settings, about, software update and do that from there, is should bring up a window saying that an update is ready ti be installed.

You should put the ota file in folder name Download, create it if does not exists. make sure OTA file you downloaded is for your phones CID.
I think you guys have no clue ! And if you are on stock rom and the ota didn't hit you.....its not out for you. Learn what you are doing ! You can't "just" go flash around like that !!!
Are you on stock rom ?
Are you on stock recovery ?
Are you on stock kernel ?
I would like to restore my stock recovery on 1.56.720.6, im unable to find this one on xda, My other option is to extract it from the OTA but there is no link anywhere to download that, can someone help me with this?
EDITL downloaded from htcdev site its a 100mb file do I flash the whole thing using super tool? if so which option should I pick to flash or goto CWM and flash from zip?
does my bootloader need to be locked before I do this?
anyone?
Is that download actually firmware or the OTA update?... I think it's only source code? Did you download it and check in the .zip file what the actual contents are before you just go and flash random .zip files with your version number on it?
As for stock recovery, correct, I can't find that stock recovery either. Just like with the OTA update most guys that get it don't bother making backup and sharing before doing anything.

They don't specify on the HTC site but when I unzip it there is a .tar file inside it, so I assume its either the ota or kernel source which someone more experienced than me can tell me.

Hi all,
Ive been trying to find the stock recovery for my m9 in order to install the latest OTA since I have flashed TWRP recovery and have not backed up original recovery.
Right now im downloading the RUU 0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_L50_SENSE70_hTC_Asia_AUS_1.32.710.16_Radio_01.01_U11440261_56.02.50306G_2_F_release_427214_signed.zip
Hoping to extract the recovery img and flash. My software version is 1.32.710.16. Optus Australia
Any info on how to go about returning my recovery back to stock would be appreciated.

Why didn't you just flash the RUU? Would have been the easiest solution if you already downloaded it since the M9 can only install OTAs if the system is completely untoched (=not rooted) and mount as read-only.
Nevertheless if you're still looking for a method to extract files from a RUU (no matter whether it's a *.zip or an *.exe): Download latest 7-Zip, install it and right click on the RUU file > 7-Zip > Open (the second option from above) > #. It may take some time to open the RUU but then you will find what you need if you open the archive 2.zip.
My HTC 10 is network locked to Hutchison 3G Ireland.
I had flashed TWRP and SuperSU to it and also S-Offed.
Then later I got a notification for an OTA update - (1.53.771.6).
So I wanted to re-flash my original stock recovery (1.21.771.4) in order to take it
BUT... I didn't make a back up of my original stock recovery and I can't find a copy of it anywhere online.
These firmware versions seem to be unique to Hutchison 3G: 1.21.771.4 -> 1.53.771.6 -> 1.90.771.4
Any tricks on how to get this OTA without a copy of my stock recovery?
Or how to obtain my stock recovery from somewhere like htc.com?
I can find the binaries for 1.21.771.4 here: htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads/, but no recovery.img within them.
Is there some simple solution I'm missing here?
I have a few ideas:
1. Flash a similar recovery version (e.g. 1.21.401.4 European Version) then take the OTA. Would this work?
2. Download the available OTA (1.53.771.6) to the phone, as normal, but don't install it.
Locate where it's stored on the phone and take the recovery.img from it.
Flash this stock recovery.img manually from fastboot.
Then manually install the rest of the firmware from this stock recovery.
Is this even possible??

There is an RUU available for you. It may be an older version but it should work because you are S OFF. You could use the RUU then take the ota. Remember if you choose to do this it will wipe everything including twrp and root so make backups.

Edit just looked and ther is 1.80.771 available which is newer than the one you are on.

You need not only the stock recovery and boot image but also an untouched stock system image if you want to take the OTA.
If you don't have backups of all of these, then start with your option 2 and download the OTA to your phone and locate where it's downloaded. From there you can install the rom portion of the update with TWRP (see the faq in the twrp thread) and flash the firmware portion manually using fastboot.
Else you can go the RUU route as mentioned above.

Thank you, an RUU is ideal.
How did you locate this btw?
This thread. Search for stiflz, thats all his RUU's. It came in handy for me not too long ago and i kept the link.

Hello everyone,
It's been more than a day I unrooted and relocked my phone to update it to oreo. I want to use stock rom so I have tried every method i could find to have OTA updates. Had corrupted file error and usb error for manual update. I'm using 2.46.617.2. I need help to update my phone. I have tried to flash stock rom with twrp(3.2.1-4) it came out the file i have downloaded was not flashable. I will root my device again because i have the vibration sound issue. I like the Sense and I'm used to it. I don't have any data to lose. I'm open for custom rom recommendations. Can anyone help me with this. Thanks.

Put it on the root of your SD card and flash from download mode. It'll wipe your phone completely

Rename to 2PS6IMG.ZIP and download mode will prompt you to flash it

The link I posted is for the U.S Unlocked version and won't work on yours.
I'm not even sure if Bell released an Oreo update, have you tried checking for updates? If they haven't made a release, the only way to Oreo would be through a custom rom or S-off and conversion to another region.
