Firmware upgrade problem - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay my original Cid is H3G__106 and I'm super Cid now, I downloaded htc 001 nandroid backup and changed my Cid to htc 001, as well looked for updates but the update fails in philz.
I need the newer firmware for the new viper rom. (4.4.3 base).
How can I get it?

I assume I then need to use the h3g 106 one since the htc001 didn't work. Problem is I have 401.5 and there is no update for that.

Did you try to convert your device to international? MID and everything changed to International version? I'm not sure what the MID is for your device but if it's different than 0P6B10000 (International WWE) then it had to have been changed as well before you can convert to WWE version.
401.5 ? For what, 1.54.401.5 ... 2.22.401.5 ?
If you don't want to convert to International, rather go back download your backup from the collection thread and update your device to newest firmware from there.

I only changed Cid nothing else. Is there a guide on how to fully convert to international edition?
Atm I'm 1.54.401.5
Problem is the stock thread doesn't have philz recovery backup for h3g 106 1.54.401.5

The guides that I saw are for changing AT&T into Developer Edition or [GUIDE] S-OFF REQUIRED!! full conversion of GSM m8s to dev edition
Even though it's converting to a developer edition the philosophy behind it is the same when you change to WWE International version. Just use the correct backups, firmwares, MID and CID.
In step 1 you'll follow the thread and use the code for the HTC_Europe MID (0P6B10000).
For step 2 you'll just use HTC__001 as as the CID
Step 3 you'll grab the nandroid backup + stock recovery for the WWE International version (x.xx.401.x ) Rather use an older version like 1.54.401.5/10 and do updates from there, it'll be easier if you don't want to manually flash firmware and OTA's.
If you continue the way he has it in his guide then you'll get the firmware from the OTA collection thread(Just extract it from OTA.zip) or you can get firmware for device from mike1986's Androidrevolution.org
It's for a different device but the idea is the exact same.

1.54.401.5 is old Venom ROM version no.
H3G__106 firmware is : 1.54.771.9 (for 4.2.2) and you need the updated firmware 2.22.771.5 to run Venom 4.4.3
So download the OTA 1.54.771.9 -> 2.22.771.5 thanks @houstie, open it with 7-zip, extract out the firmware.zip and flash that in RUU mode.
Then reflash Philz recovery and install latest Venom ROM ...done

Why not. Twrp is not "better" than philz and vice versa.....

If you want ViperOne, you'll want to switch to TWRP. It's on the OP on their thread.
Also, the super id I use is 11111111. Try that and see if it works.
Sorry I didn't quote you Mr Hofs, but I'm not sure how to yet on tapatalk.

You see since you are S_OFF you can install wwe fw ie 1.54.401.5 and for ruu http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735235

Vodafone UK? What was the original CID and Version number? VODAP001 and x.xx.161.x ?
COLLECTION of Stock backup's has nandroid backups for both 1.12.161.17 and 1.54.161.5 . The stock recovery is also at that thread though it's only for the 1.54.161.5.
I see it's TWRP nandroid backups though, so hopefully you already have TWRP recovery on. Then just download the nandroid backups, unzip it into the SD card backup folder for TWRP i.e TWRP/Backups/serialnum/ Just replace serialnum with your device serial number and restore nandroid backup. It'll then take you to 1.54.161.5 if there's a new OTA for it then just apply and you have latest then. Just make sure to flash back stock recovery before you attempt OTA.

Yeah you can basically "convert" it to any though you probably won't always get the OTA updates. You'll probably have to end up flashing the OTA update's .zip file from within RUU. I think you'll be fine for OTA's if you do it for example, dev edition, unlock edition, international WWE version, they get updates from HTC itself, the carrier specific OTA's will probably have to be flashed. I say probably because I haven't converted to and from any carrier specific device myself.
But yeah, if you're S-OFF and supercid you can flash just about anything. Careful though... Else the next thread we'll be discussing in is "HELP!!! I THINK I BRICKED MY PHONE!!!!!!" :cyclops:

There is no need to change your MID unless you are planning to change over to a developer edition. Stock firmware already includes stock recovery. I don't see that you have stock ROM listed.

Oh, I thought you just wanted it back to stock to return for repairs. To receive OTA updates, I believe the CID of your phone must match the CID of the firmware/Stock ROM you are flashing. I don't believe you need to change the MID but it might not hurt. Flash Stock ROM first, the Firmware.
Thought I'd post in here seeing as I'm in the UK so get everything about ROM versions, etc...
There are no RUUs available for the M8 bar a few US carrier ones. It sucks but there are other way around it, and with you being S-OFF you have a lot of options. One is to convert the phone to 100% stock, EU, unbranded but Vodafone will then refuse repair so you'd be stuck paying for it. The other is to use the stock backups on here to go back to the Vodafone build, but if you've flashed a different FW build this will also fail repair if checked.
Regarding the MID, all EU handsets have the same one so you don't ever have to worry about changing it at any point
If you can find one of the Vodafone OTA updates I can knock something up for you but I don't remember seeing anyone posting one...

near as I can tell your one is from Cinncinati Bell and you'll probably never see an update. It's similar to a T-mobile One if memory serves me right. Anyway you'll need S-OFF to convert your phone to DE or international if you want to receive updates

you can flash roms without s-off, but some roms are going to need firmware that's up to date. Your phone will not get that up to date firmware unless you get s-off and do the developer edition conversion ( change CID and MID and flash DE RUU)
As Far as your phone being international it really should not matter as long as it's working on the carrier you use, it is a LTE compatable M8_UL

You need to s-off and update firmware to run that ROM, otherwise you will have some serious issues including long (like 5-10 minute) boot times and broken WiFi.
Same is going to happen if you try to run any 4.4.3 Sense based custom ROMs coming from 4.4.2.
Just search and read if want more info on firmware. This has been discussed probably dozens of times on other threads.

Just look in the Development forum section for the threads regarding firmware. You can flash after the fact (after ROM is already installed). But I normally recommend to backup any important data before flashing just about anything "just in case".

Relocking bootloader is not required or suggested.
I'm not sure which firmware goes with your CID. You'll need to research yourself, unless somebody who knows chimes in.
As long as you have a GSM M8, the firmware should be fine. But you may or may not experience some minor network issues, if the firmware is not intended for your carrier.

[Q] how to update to least lollipop

hi all
my friend tried to update his phone, and all he's got is:
the phone can't boot into recovery. stuck on "entering recovery"
insert coin rom (v 3.0.8) works fine, except the play store!
i tried to flash a new recovery with no success. finally i flash a twrp by captain throwback version 2.8.0.6, and wow it works!
now, i'm wanna to update his M8 to least android version.
fastboot getvar all:
m8_ul
s-on
CID: HTC__K18
MID: 0P6B10000
HBOOT: 3.16.0.0000
version main: empty
settings >> about >> software information:
android version 4.4.2
sense 6.0
InsertCoin version 3.0.8
build number 1.54.401.10
can i simply flash 4.16.401.10 firmware.zip, least TWRP version, ARHD 34.0 (don't worry i don't forget the boot.img )
or
it's better to return to stock and perform software updates?
by the way,
the build number in settings, is the current firmware.zip that installed? or the firmware that the rom based on??
thank's
i read somewhere that its safer to flash firmwares in row, start at 1.54.401.10 then the others in the x.xx.401.xx line
you can also try simply to flash the latest RUU. maybe you get some wifi errors.
i was on 3.xx.401 firmware and installed the 4.x DEV RUU without any errors
yeah the build number in settings shows the rom base.
ok, thanks

so, i cannot know the exact firmware he has..
i'm asked that because the safest way to update is going back to stock. i found only 1.54.401.5 NAND Backups.
i'm afraid to flash the wrong nand backup..
how can i know which firmware he has?

If you want to go the save way Try the 1.54.401.x RUU.exe from the thread. Then you should be fine to apply the otas
Dont be to afraid from flashing wrong files in most cases your phone wont get bricked it just dont boot up

If you want to go the save way Try the 1.54.401.x RUU.exe from the thread. Then you should be fine to apply the otas
Dont be to afraid from flashing wrong files in most cases your phone wont get bricked it just dont boot up

hi all
my friend tried to update his phone, and all he's got is:
the phone can't boot into recovery. stuck on "entering recovery"
insert coin rom (v 3.0.8) works fine, except the play store!
i tried to flash a new recovery with no success. finally i flash a twrp by captain throwback version 2.8.0.6, and wow it works!
now, i'm wanna to update his M8 to least android version.
fastboot getvar all:
m8_ul
s-on
CID: HTC__K18
MID: 0P6B10000
HBOOT: 3.16.0.0000
version main: empty
settings >> about >> software information:
android version 4.4.2
sense 6.0
InsertCoin version 3.0.8
build number 1.54.401.10
can i simply flash 4.16.401.10 firmware.zip, least TWRP version, ARHD 34.0 (don't worry i don't forget the boot.img )
or
it's better to return to stock and perform software updates?
by the way,
the build number in settings, is the current firmware.zip that installed? or the firmware that the rom based on??
thank's

Version main is empty because of the older recovery. Try to flash TWRP 2.8.4.0 again.
You can't flash the firmware zip without being S-Off. Sunshine is the only way to do it now, and it costs $25 (totally worth it). Or you could return to stock and take the OTAs. (stock ROM and recovery plus unmodified system partition)
The build number in settings is in fact the ROM base, and not the current firmware version.

first thanks for your help!
i will try this tomorrow .
on my m8 I bought sunshine (totally worth it) agree
but before i have s-off i'm flashed new firmware.zip (you have to relock your bootloader)
s-off lets you to flash firmware.zip without Signature and without relock
look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696282

Another part of the problem is that HTC updates incrementally. You can't just leap frog from 4.4.2 to 5.0.1.
Once you get S-Off, you can flash a firmware zip from this thread. @Sneakyghost makes his firmware packages so that you don't have to flash each update one at a time. You can just jump to the newest.
But.....from the readout on the earlier post, it is WWE and there is an RUU for that. It is signed, so it should work. It will only get you to 4.4.4. (3.28.401.9 is the newest on this thread). You could try to flash the Lolly firmware after you have updated to this.

Flashing WWE RUU on T-Mob101?

Hi Guys,
im on ViperRom 2.5 and want to install LeeDroid Lollipop Rom and for that i need to update to latest HTC WWE 4.16.401.10 firmware.
Can i just flash the Ruu or do i have to change my CID?
I can't read out my main-version, cause of a TWRP bug, i think?
Can anyone tell me what i should do? Thanks!
You need s-off and the correct cid (and mid) then you can flash a wwe ruu.
Or bring the phone back to stock and do the ota to lollipop if it's out/when it gets out and then install the custom rom

And how can i get back to stock? I don't know my main-version... i only know, that i have T-Mob101 CID but i don't know how to get back to stock
I just went to Software information and i have Version 2.22.401.5 Does that mean im on WWE already? Or is it just the base of the Viperonem8-rom?
I really don't know how to get back to stock i want to go back to stock and get my phone S-off.... Can i just flash one of this nandroid backups from the RUUs, OTAs, Stock TWRP Backups Thread?

yes the 2.22.401 is the build of the viper rom. Check the general section, there is a great thread stickied by @exocetdj they are hosting many nandroid backups and a tutorial on how to get back to stock
I know this thread, but how do i know which nandroid backup i need? i can't read my main-version so i don't know which backup i need

You check the list with backups and check the cids. When the cid matches yours you have your main version. Then check your hboot number. The lower the hboot number the lower the main version is.
Example
3.16 = 1.12 and 1.54
3.18 = 2.22 and higher
3.19 = 3.xx and higher

Help with installing ARHD

Trying to install Android Revolution HD lolipop, i have tried installing it but it just gets stuck and reboots into recovery. I need newer firmware but i can't find anything that supports my model and cid. Any help would be appreciated. Or can i flash firmware that does not have my cid somehow ? What are my options?
TWRP 2.8.5.0
Current Firmware: 3.11.1700.5
S-OFF
0P6B12000
cidnum: CWS__001 AT&T
I think i figured it out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727
Vomer's guide pretty much covers it. You can change your CID since you are s-off. And you can make it SuperCID 11111111, which allows you to flash firmware for any CID (SuperCID essentially "passes" any CID check).
You can also try the firmware for the US Dev Edition. Its Lollipop firmware, and intended to be used on AT&T's network:

Looks like you're running the GPe conversion. If so, you first need to get back to the Sense partition so follow the 'Back to Sense' thread in General and then flash the Sense-based ROM of your choice (along with matching FW package)
