Hopefully I am not repeating a thread someone else has already started elsewhere but I have tried for many days and could not find anyone else having this same problem. Apologies if one already exists as I know people seem to repeat...
I recently acquired an HTC One M8 with Android Revolution 11.2 on it. Even though I had factory reset it a couple of times, I could not get it to accept my Google account but WiFi was working. So I flashed it with the latest 21.1 but this time the WiFi does not come on. I tried this a couple of times and the problem persists. I have TWRP recovery, S-ON, rooted/unlocked, UK. I reinstalled 11.2 and I am able to use the phone. The only problem here is that my music does not play through the phone speakers but it does through Bluetooth speakers (probably works through earpiece but have not tried that).
People seemed to have faced WiFi issues with earlier versions of Android Revolution but no one has mentioned this for the latest version. Does anyone have any idea what it could be or what I need to check to help with this problem? I would like to be able to flash to latest version and use all the functions of the phone to enjoy the phone, the latter taking priority. Failing that, I may have to resort to going back to stock ROM which does not seem like an easy thing as flashing the stock ROM. I am considering doing that anyway because of some of the great improvements HTC have introduced in the latest version.

Please, post the output of

You don't have to post your firmware version, because it's certainly wrong -- you need to update your firmware, or your WiFi won't work. If your phone works with 11.2 then you have the old firmware.
You're going to either have to try to get S-Off (which will likely require paying) or find an official OTA for your phone that you can use to upgrade firmware.
Her'es a good guide to all this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727
This is discussed a lot in the ARHD thread and elsewhere, so you just have to sit back and do some reading and searching.

Sorry, took me a while to learn, install and run ADB and Fastboot. I managed to use Squabbi's Toolkit which installed ADB and Fastboot for me. Thanks Squabbi !

Lukes91, thoroughly appreciate your responses so thanks. I missed your earlier post about Firmware. I will follow the details and some reading on how to do this. I will let you know how it goes.
Here are the steps I took to upgrade my firmware , it may be of some help to you ?

Thanks for the details. I had not seen your post until I got into a lot of trouble and came back here for help. I had finished typing a whole lot of stuff but before I submitted it I managed to get over the ordeal. After hours of reading, trying to conjure up the courage to update the firmware without having to S-OFF as S-ON provides security for insecure people like me but also because FIREWIRE could not do it. I finally took the plunge with "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696282" which seemed to work. But after rebooting, the phone got stuck on the HTC splash screen. After a few more hours of reading while crying, I came across a post which advised of power+vol-up option and then power+vol-down quickly. Oh, the relief! After that, I managed to update recovery to TWRP but then all sorts of trouble not being able to update ROM using TWRP Install because "Unable to read zip file" and "Not enough space" using FASTBOOT UPDATE option. Even though it was not allowing my PC to write to the internal storage forever, finally, as if by magic while I was typing my reply here earlier (as mentioned above), I was able to copy the odexed HTC 3.28.401.7 ROM (from the ARHD site) to the phone's internal storage. When I then used the TWRP Install, it managed to install as expected. Another moment of relief!
Anyway, I now seem to have sensible versions showing up for the phone, WiFi working and music playing through the speakers. Happy days!

The phone is currently unlocked, s-off. I tried flashing with both, philz and twrp, none work. Also, these roms worked before on the same phone with the same recovery so I really have no idea of what went wrong. The firmware on the phone is 1.56.720.6 (Asia-India). I have tried clearing the cache partition multiple times, but it doesn't help.

@EddyOS, @nkk71 please see this. I think there's something wrong with my /data partition..
Did you recently do the GPE conversion?
May be you should try to flash the stock rom and stock recovery then flash the ruu.

This, the partitions get altered so you can't just simply flash back
According to the OP's getvar output they've NOT done the GPe conversion as the HBOOT version included in the RUU is 3.18.0.0000 and the OP is still on 3.16.0.0000
OP, I'd follow my guide linked in my signature and you should be good to go

I hadn't touched the firmware, so there shouldn't be any problem related to that. Anyways, a rom and recovery do Not affect an RUU flash.

I flashed the international fw zip, and ARHD, (I had checked the hash of the file) and it still didn't work. Also, when I would reboot, some random artefacts would appear during the boot animation (different each time, sometimes wouldn't appear), such as there would be a random flash of purple across the screen or the boot animation would leave a trail behind it (like the effect you get web you would drag a stuck window in win98) etc. sometimes TWRP would act extremely sluggish while sometimes it would be fast and snappy. Quite a few times, while flashing any rom, the screen would go black and reboot to TWRP at random (even after disabling the display timeout). I tried formatting all the partitions on the internal storage. Still gave me problems. I tried to repair file system of each partition in TWRP. The data partition could never get repaired. All of these random problems lead me to believe that this was 99% the fault of the phone/hardware. Luckily I was within the 14 day replacement period and so I went out today after flashing the faux locked/s-on bootloader (I know I should not mess with firmware unless required, and I hadn't till now but I didn't care anymore since I was getting it replaced anyway. I also had 2 dead pixels and a scratch on my camera glass. Now I just have to sit back and wait for a new phone
We've seen this issue on Viper a few times and it usually happened after someone installed e.g. a VZW recovery to the GSM phone or vice versa.
A wrong recovery would flash stuff into the wrong partitions.
A RUU for your device, really just any, should fix it. You should run a RUU and then factory reset right afterwards from bootloader BEFORE flashing another custom recovery.
There is a cingular (AT&T) RUU out right now from HTC here: http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...G_20.31A.4145.02L_release_368350_signed_2.exe which you could try - it is a GSM RUU. We don't really have WWE 401 RUU yet.
Just make sure you don't grab a SPRINT or Verizon RUU if you find any!!!!!!

Too late for trying a fix , I just want to know what caused it, and I'm 1000% sure I had the right recovery, because as I said, I flashed many other roms in the past with the same recovery, and the problem came after I tried ARHD. And this is the gsm phone.
Yeah well no idea then. Just know I've seen this happen from wrong recoveries. Also not the time to dig into it any further if you've gotten that resolved already I'll leave it as is. Thanks for asking me though. Just keep in mind I've been out of XDA since months and am only slowly reading my way back in so I'm sure there are way more knowledgeable guys around regarding firmware, softbricks and the like.

In such a big mess! I have the same problem as the OP - same to the last dot. I am on India version of device, and was just trying to update firmware to 4.4.3 and in that quest i flashed firmware from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54899772&postcount=1392.
Post that camera and wi-fi stopped working - so I thought may be I screwed up with boot.img and reflashing Viper/ADHD would solve it. While on my way to install Viper I cleaned/wiped data in recovery and hit reboot accidentally which got the phone to stuck in bootloop. I pushed in back in recovery however, since then I have not been able to install either Viper or ADHD. I even tried doing a nandroid back-up from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54940131&postcount=1419, however nothing brings me past the splash screen.
Off-late (few hours) I am not been able to do a back-up (nandroid) as my recovery throws cant mount sdcard or sdcard1 both. Please help!

Yes, I did. Using HTCDev.
At the moment, I would be just happy with someway of going back to the clean slate. Is there a way I could go back to original/stock using ADB/Fastboot as recovery also doesnt seem to work.
Thanks

Bump!
Anyone?
Prologue:
So there I was, caressing my shiny and smooth M8.
At the beginning of the year I S-Offed, and added DigitalHigh's awesome Beyond Stock...
Later on, I used a standard RUU GPE Rom.
After repeated Wi-Fi password amnesia, I wanted Beyond Stock Back.
Flashing "GPE_5.1_M8_DH_080215.zip" gives me an "Error 7" even with repeated wipes... hehe... wipes
Searching didn't give me a coherent answer.
So I though, let's update TWRP... and...
Now
The thing's only usable in Bootloader.
If I go to recovery or ANYTHING, the "Google" logo stares at me in disgust.
Odd detail: I'm using fastboot and when it's stuck on the "Google" logo, entering "adb devices" detects the phone in recovery mode.
I flashed TWRP 2.8.7.0, but all I see is the "Google" logo. (I can still feel vibrations on the screen as if I'm hitting a menu button)
I also tried to "fastboot -w" and it gave me the "remote: not allowed" result.
Actually, I tried to fastboot a lot of things and the result came the same.
Anyways, I'll give a detailed log as soon as I remember how, but the reason I post this is 'cause searching for this doesn't give an understandable or reliable result.
Thanks

But delete the serial and imei before posting ! If you have an old bootloader you have to use the 2.7 series of TWRP. if you have the latest bootloader (3.18-3.19) you have to use 2.8 series of TWRP !
OOOOOOOOOHHHH, Where I get new M8 bootloader?
Hold Up, going to work, will post 'getvar' later today.
It's there, brah.
Take a look if you can.
It's an AT&T device, you are using it with AT&T ? And you fully converted it from sense to GPE ? You could also :
1: run the GPE ruu again. It will get you on GPE stock again and since you are s-off that should not be a problem of any kind.
2: convert back to sense (original AT&T with software number x.xx.502.x)
i am not sure if the AT&T RUU will cover the "back to sense conversion" so this might be interesting too as it involves the standalone flashing of the firmware first (you need a AT&T firmware, NOT the one posted there !!!)
here is more conversion info :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733523
and here you can get firmwares : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

Hi,,
I have managed to remove my OS, without making a backup. All i have running is TWRP. Was going to install CM12.1, but didnt update the M8 to the latest software that contains relevant bootloader. From here it went downhill - fast.
Ended up with no OS, no backkups, and no ability to flash other ROMS i think.
If someone could give me a few ideas, i would really appreciate it.

Your case is different and you should start your own thread but there are many same case as yours.
Here is one and the solution is in there.. run RUU - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/os-sos-t3192177
Anything you're not sure, ask there. Don't hijack this thread.
UPDATE: Thanks to ckpv5 and the links that were provided i was able to complete the reinstall - thank you so much!!
Opps - sorry - didnt mean to offend!
Will take a look.
Thanks
Mike
The RUU got me an OS and, right now, that is all I need.
Thank you!!
I followed the instructions fine and never hit a snag, upgrading from Android 4.4.4 stock but rooted to the latest ARHD running Android 5.0.1. I'm not sure if the issue is related to the lollipop update or the rom but once my phone screen locks I lose my WiFi connection. I can go into WiFi and see the available networks, select my one and click connect but nothing happens, the only way to get WiFi working again is to restart the phone which is becoming really frustrating. I have tried forgetting the network then re adding it too but the issue remains. Anyone else had this problem or know of a fix?
On a less annoying note when iIstart up it first acts like it's loafing bootloader with the red text at the bottom of the screen then restarts itself and boots fine.

Your HTC is WWE and your bootloader is at 3.19 so i suggest to restore a stock backup from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3086860
Take the 4.16.401.10, that will work. And if you also put back the stock recovery you can also perform official OTA updates.
READ the opening post very carefully as its very good explained !

Im now back to stock, running the latest firmware - no more updates available and though it was fixed but the wifi has just dropped out and had to restart to get it back (I can see the network it just will not connect). Does this mean it is a Lollipop issue?

Post the current getvar all.
Also, you should delete the serial number from your last getvar all (and the new one, of course) as that is personal info.
You may need to OTA again. I think some OTAs had WiFi broken, even on fully stock devices; and it was fixed on a subsequent OTA.
If you restore a backup 4xx10 and made Ota to 4xx13 he did not update the firmware. Must restore the backup 3xxx and make ota. This will solve the problems with wifi.

I was thinking along those lines (why I asked for updated getvar data) as the radio number indicates 3.xx firmware.
But I am surprised up updated at all, with the improper (old) firmware.
I do not see any other reason malfunction wifi, in addition to hardware failure.
The last ota was not large, so it may be that it could be downloaded. Let's wait author may write off something that already everything is running or not

I bought my phone from a Canadian provider known as Wind Mobile (now rebranded as Freedom Mobile). As you can see there's no firmware listed, and the bootloader is a strange 3.19.0.0000 which I can't seem to find anything on. The lack of firmware listing seems to be a common problem, but it leaves me with a few blanks that leave me unsure on how to proceed.
I've found threads that have RUUs for the same CID & MID, but never for the same bootloader version. I'm not really too sure how to proceed from here as I can't seem to find stock files anywhere for my provider. I'm currently using CRDroid 7.1.1.
I'd like to go back to as stock as possible and receive OTA updates. Can anyone give me some advice on what to use? I've been searching for a few hours now and can't seem to find anything for my specific phone. The one thing I did find was a European based RUU which would probably screw up my radios as I'm located in Canada.
Thank you.
Go to my backup thread linked in my signature and restore stock 6.13.1500.7 backup.
If you want the firmware to be shown on bootloader then flash fw_6.13.1500.7 firmware
How-to is explained there.
First thing .. use correct TWRP version 3.0.x not your current one which I believe is 2.7.x

Thank you so much. You're the best. Got my phone running at pure stock with no issues whatsoever.
Hi, I recently installed lineage os rom (from sense-rom). So after the installation I was really pleased that the phone was back to normal but later i realize the audio has completely vanished. I can't play any songs, videos start but they are as on mute. same goes for playing videos on Instagram and YouTube. Actually on YouTube I get the error message '' There was a problem while playing Touch to retry''. Even there is no ringtone volume sound, i also tired to change it but its says unable to play. I also tried to recover my recovery of stock 4.4.4 and also did factory reset later but the problem still persists.
Any support would be appreciated. Thank you.

Agreed. Sound issues like this are usually a result of outdated or damaged firmware.

Sure, here you go: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
Firmware 6.20.651.3 is what you want. Modified vs. full or signed is up to you. But since you have s-off, the easiest is probably the one with recovery and boot removed. Otherwise, stock recovery and boot will be installed when you flash the firmware; and you will need to flash TWRP again, and also flash the custom ROM (or at least it's boot.img) again.
I'm glad you provided the getvar data in this case. From the results I can see you have the US Sprint variant, with s-off. This combination is a little dangerous. Whatever you do, do NOT try to flash firmware for another (non-Sprint) version. They are not compatible, and doing so won't work, and may even result in a permanent radio brick!
Hello Guys !!
So my brother had htc one m8 for like 4 years he was studying in uk he came back to india in 2016 and purchased one plus 3 and unfortunately he passed away after 15 days but thats not the point, so my dad kept the oneplus , this htc was somewhat dead and was kept in the cupboard for two years and i had my eyes on it a week back i tried to charge it and it actually did show a sign of life though it was stuck on htc screen, wasnt booting up i put some effort and managed to boot it up i wanted to listen to legendary boom sound but strangely their was no sound at all and tried to listen to ringtones but still no sound thought that it must be hardware issue but headphones werent working either, i came on xda read some threads found out that this can be case when rom is damaged it was running on MM sense 7 so i unlocked bootloader and flashed twrp and installed lineage os 17 but still there was no sound so i tried to get it back on stock but all i get is errors , I tried many RUU versions most of the time error was "error 12 signature verify fail i feel pretty helpless cause i wanted get my brother's memories back

Signature verify fail usually means you still have the bootloader unlocked. The bootloader needs to be relocked in order to run RUU. Relock with fastboot command: fastboot oem lock
You also aren't going to find the right RUU by guessing. It needs to match your CID and version number. In your case, there also isn't an exe version RUU for your M8 variant. But you can use the zip format RUU from the following post, using the instruction found there as well: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
Also, I'm not sure what you mean by wanting your brother's memories back. Not sure if you are being literal (the actual data) or more figurative. But if you are talking data, that got wiped when you unlocked the bootloader.
Another thing, delete serial number for your post. This is personal data, that should not be posted on a public forum.
