Help at ota update - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi , i have htc one m8x (asia version) rooted with s-on and hboot 3.18 and software 4.4.3 ..i receive the ota update for 4.4.4 and i downloaded it , tried flashing using TWRP and didnt work ..so i heard that i have to flash the stock recovery corresponding to my software so i flashed the 2.22.709.4 recovery matching my main version and my CID htc__621 ..tried to install but it stops at 30% maybe and then a red triangle with an exclamation mark pops up .. pls help cuz i am stock with this

try this i have update today itself
Welcome to the club
First of all flash 2.22.709 stock recovery
then flash ota zip 4.4.4 which is already installed
u can flash this zip via terminal emulator method search on labtoofers post
then search for updates on phone voila done
If everything goes fine your issue would be solved in 2 hours however mine took 6 hours as I tried and tried many times
FYI you need to relock boot loader after flashing 4.4.4 ota zip
If this helped press thanks

[Q] Probem trying to OTA update to 4.1

I am Android version 4.0.4 and apparently my HTC is HTC_622
sense 4.1
software: 2.17.708.7
I got an OTA update to 4.1 (software update:3.14.708.28 to be exact) and after I wait for it to download and I let it update, problems start to happen.
I had CWM recovery before so I flashed back stock recovery (the 622 from here : http://d-h.st/users/ClydeB1/?fld_id=8386#files ) and tried to update. I made it to the recovery and see the green arrow icon with the loading bar. But when it loads to a 1/4 or about 1/3, it green icon changes to the red exclamation and then it just freezes. Then I have to soft reboot. I load back to my original stock ROM and the update is not applied (obviously). I am unsure about what's going on. I also tried flashing this recovering :http://d-h.st/yDf and it did not work either. I tried this recovery because my current software is 2.17 but then the OTA update is 3.14 For both recoveries, I've tried with the boot loader locked/unlocked and I still have no luck.
Am I doing something wrong? I need to be in full stock to apply the OTA right? So then I Just flashed the stock recovery and relocked the bootloader.
I'm just glad it isn't boot looping like before. Thanks in advance.

I have the exate same problem, but mi CID its the HTC__001 from UK. I don't understand whats happening!
This is def the right recovery you need
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
If you made any changes to the rom (like removing bloatware) the update will also fail !

I don't know if the problem it's in the recovery, i have that version of recovery, ant it does'nt work either.
Then you definitively made a change somewhere, or in the rom or the boot.img....

Well i don't recall of doing that, but doesn't matter, today i will try to flash both the boot.img and that recovery, lets see if that will work. Then i let my feedback in this thread. Thank you in advance.
No problem mate, always try to help. We get to the bottom of this
Well i tried flashing boot.img and recovery.img, but it's the same problem, it just doesn't install, gives me the same problem, red triangle.
I'm lost, don't now what to do.

Get your cid and main version
Fastboot OEM readcid
Fastboot getvar version-main
And check the nandroid collection in the general thread, if it's there you download it and restore it ! After that flash the stock recovery and check for the update again !

My CID it's HTC__001, but was bought in expansys, and came from UK, the main version i got to look.
I talk in the chat with HTC yestarday, and they told me that the update for my version only comes out monday, 24 of December, because my phone had come from the UK. But i told her that i already had the update available, but it gave me an error in the instalation...that's when she told me to make a factory reset, and it didn't work.
Thanks for your help.
Do the getvar command, you might be trying to use the wrong recovery...that or get the 1.36 FW from the dev section and then relock and flash the 3.14.401.27 RUU

[Q] JB

hello dudes... my cid no is "HTC__023"... when i first got the phone I made an OTA update when my bootloader had been still locked.... then i unlocked it, flashed a custom recovery, and flashed the ICS Android Revolution which i still hv now... ok i want to upgrade to jelly bean. i downloaded this stock RUU "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_hTC_Asia_WWE_3.14.707.24_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_296434_signed"
which i thought was the correct one for me... it's saying that the image version is being updated from (Image version: 2.17.728.5) to (Image version: 3.14.707.24)... after it starts updating the signature, it gives me ((error 159: image error))... hv i missed sth ?
any solution plz even with a JB custom rom...
P.S.
I flashed a stock recovery and relocked bootloader before starting the update process.

I think that you have take a incorrect RUU and if i am correct your phone now is a.... XD!
Any ways i dont know a lot of RUU but seem to be incorrect because the numbers doent matxh "x.xx.728.x" "x.xx.707.x", and i think that these three numbers have to be the same!

If you are asking a question, you need to ask your question in the correct subforum, which I have moved this thread to.
There is no usable ruu for you, and i don't see a "new" nandroid backup either. But you can do this :
Download here your matching firmware. The HTC__023 one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376
Place the file in the fastboot folder and rename it to firmware.zip
Put the phone in the bootloader and relock it. Then flash the firmware
Fastboot oem lock
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Do it multiple times until it says Oke, if it does not the first time !
Reboot the bootloader (hold power button and volume - button until you are in the bootloader)
Unlock the bootloader, flash a custom recovery and install a new JB rom of your choice
Even if the rom is stock or it's not possible.
In fact there is a JB stock nandroid you can use. But you have to update the hboot first
http://bugsylawson.com/index.php/files/file/186-cwm-nandroid-backup-cid-htc-023-3177281/
ok but i meant to say can i use ANY stock rom of my choice coz i want full arabic support or maybe i shd stick to my cid -related roms?
When you upgraded the hboot you can use any rom out here. Custom roms, stock rom.....whatever you want. The only cid related rom here is that stock nandroid backup i linked you. 99% of the custom roms here are based on the wwe base.
Thank you very much for giving a helping hand... it worked... i flashed the firmware successfully ... one last thing: generally, we flash a stock recovery and relock the bootloader before we install a stock RUU using the computer i mean ... Can i now, after flashing the firmware, install ANY stock RUU, arabic to be specific, using the computer as usual without flashing a stock recovery and locking my bootloader?
thank you
No you must flash a custom recovery and flash a custom rom. Or you must restore the stock nandroid backup.
You can't run a ruu. There is no ruu available for you to use.
2 choices :
1: install any custom JB rom
2: restore the stock 3.17 nandroid backup, flash back the stock 3.17 recovery. Then you be able to install official OTA
after i flashed the firmware and twrp jb recovery i cant access the sd card from the recovery anymore... pc says Mtp failed
any ideas?
ah ok got it sorted out.. i tried cwm recovery and it mounted successfully ....
Oke cool,so its all sorted now ?
Yes got it all .. thank you
However, as you can see in the attached image the internal storage is nearly full. Well I just flashed the Rom as you know. I wonder what the problem could be.

Check the installed apps list. Maybe the user installed apps before making the nandroid backup

directory for HOX official updates

i have HTC one x which is rooted and unlocked boot loader but i checked for updates after i got it unlocked and rooted , there was a new update i downloaded it and tried to install when i restart the update should be installed but every time i click restart to update the device restarts but dose not install the updates instead the device boot into TWRP recovery screen, so my question is how can i install the official updates? or is there is a way to install them manually using TWRP Recovery screen?
Is your rom still stock ? (No apps deleted) then you need the stock recovery.
What software number are you on now
2.17, 3.14 or even higher ?

Yes im still on stock rom
my software numb is 3.14.401.31
Flash this recovery back and try to update again
http://db.tt/C1SWP2ZJ
what would this file do exactly? will it relock the boot or unroot
sorry im new in all of this so basically i know nothing
No you need the stock recovery (HTC) because the custom recovery that we use to flash roms is not capable of handling official update files from htc.
This will not lock the bootloader, it will only replace the custom recovery so that you are able to install the OTA update.
worked and updated thanks for the help
No problem ! :thumbup:
CASE CLOSED !
BUT it unrooted the phone so i had to root it again, no biggie
Yeah thats normal ! But indeed no biggie....enjoy the day

install philz touch recovery and see if that helps
Hmm weird issue, dont think philz recovery will help if it's a happening in a running OS.
Maybe reflashing the stand-alone firmware can help ?!
i flashed philz touch recovery , not work
what is the stand-alone firmware mr hofs?how?
Well there is a firmware.zip in the 3.20.401 ota.zip file. You could try to flash it.
Put the firmware in the fastboot folder and flash it with the phone in bootloader/ruu mode. With a relocked/locked bootloader.
Fastboot oem lock
Fastboot oem RebootRUU
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
Then unlock it and reflash a custom recovery and a new rom from scratch to test
Here are the ota files where you can pull the firmware from. If that doesn't work you can also flash the 1.72 hboot (4.18 ota)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1606676
already updatet to 4.18 via firmware.zipi
Reflash the firmware once again ?
yes i install firmware 4.18 again and again but not work my touch
I would like to test ota 4.18 update but how?
how to install ota via recocovery?while update from internall storage , just reboot and not install
Just restore a full stock nandroid backup with a custom recovery and flash it's boot.img too
downloading 4.18 nandroid backup......................
restore to nandroid 4.18 and flash boot and recovery from backup and just worked for 15 minute..........
Then i have no solution. Sorry

[Q] Long boot times, need to update 4.4.3 firmware?

Running ARHD 11.1 now, but i have crappy boot times.
I am S-ON, unlocked bootloader, but I need to update firmware so my boot time isn't 3000 hours.
Bootloader says:
HBOOT: 3.16.0.0000
Radio:1.16.21331931.LA24G
etc..
Can i flash the OTA from the official thread to get newest firmware and then go back to ARHD 11.1 to fix this?
Thanks for the help im just confused

In order to fix the long boot times you would need to update your firmware which can be done via this thread. You don't have to flash everything if you don't want to, you can just simply flash the stock firmwares which he has as a single download in his thread.
Alternatively yes you can accept this OTA, but the way mentioned above is easier.
Take note those aren't meant to be flashed in TWRP or CWM, those are for RUU mode which you should learn about if you don't know how to do it or what it actually is. You can find instructions for it all over these RUU threads.
What is ARHD? I've never used it....
