Noob-questions about RUU

Can I use RUU to update my phone when completely stock? (Locked bootloader, not rooted) Will I receive OTA-updates after it? Also will this affect my warranty?

Yes it is important
I think your your CID & Main ver; are J15 & 3.16.415.4, if so here is stock recovery >>>>http://d-h.st/p3X
Unlock bootloader and flash this stosk recovery, then relock bootloader again and check the update again.

thank you sooo much :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Rumrunner won't work with 4.3. You must be on 4.2.2. Shouldn't be long before there's a method for 4.3. Just not yet.

Are there any other ways to root or S-Off with 4.3? In the same boat here and it's annoying...

Works for all models. Just got root/S-OFF my VZW One the other day with no problems.

It works, I'm on 4.3 hboot 1.55. Firewater unlocked bootloader and s-off.

I can't believe it!!!! IT ACTUALLY WORKED!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!

S-off worked very well, thanks. Now if I could just undo the damage from trying a custom ROM.

Silly question. Once I use firewater and achieve S-OFF, what next? just install SuperSU from the play store to have root access? Also, do you lose data with Firewater? On 2.10.605.1.
Thanks.

No data loss, but you have to flash cwm or tarp and install superuser from there. At least I think, I'm kinda new at this too.

I believe after you gain S-off you have to install a custom recovery. Then you'll have to flash a ROM with SU in it.

Just flash stock recovery first and as long you dont modified anything, just rooted, the ota will go through. I heard you might loose the root after ota.

You already in stock 4.4.2 just rooted and twrp. All you need is stock recovery and checknthe updates and receive the ota. Check the xda thread if its true that once you accepted the 4.4.3 ota, you will loose root.

i can root in 4.4.3 ???

I was on the original 1.12 firmware, but here was my process.
I relocked my bootloader, used the 1.57 RUU to return to stock. Updated to 4.4.3 with the OTA, went back through the HTC Dev unlock process to unlock my bootloader, then flashed TWRP.
From there you can install a custom rom or use TWRP to inject root to the stock rom.

No. I had to go to the HTC Dev site and put in new token info to get a new binary.

[Q] HTC One M8 International (Unlocked and S-Off) is not updating to 5.0.1

HTC One M8 International (Unlocked and S-Off) is not updating to 5.0.1. Please help.

Do you have the right stock recovery installed?
Did you modified the system files in any way?
Files like build.prop or platform.xml?

UniversalKID thanks for reply. I didn't make any modification in any file and how I know about the right stock recovery?

What do you mean not updating? Are you waiting for an OTA? Since you are S-Off, I'll assume you are running a custom ROM. It won't happen unless you are on stock.
But since you are S-Off, just update your firmware, and flash a Lolly ROM.

I want to use stock lolly ROM but through OTA downloaded 5.0.1 but at time of installation, I am not able to upgrade on lollipop.

S-On I suppose? For OTAs, return to stock with the instructions and downloads in this thread.

Do not tell someone to S-ON when they're not 100% certain they're stock, plus you don't need to be S-ON to update.
OP, can you get a shot of the actual error you're seeing? Up to now you've not really described the error very well

I wasn't telling him to s on, I was assuming he was s on.
I should have been more clear in my post.

Ah, OK. I can see how it can be read that way. My bad!
