TWRP is custom recovery. You need stock recovery to install an OTA. Find the right stock recovery for your CID and stock software number here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376

Yeah your system is not stock. Make backups of what you need in the future and do exactly as the thread tells you in order to return to stock via a new stock backup which is probably available there (or a ruu in some cases)

I won't know.... What CID do you have? Mr Hofs asked this previously and I'm yet to see anything from your side. If you're on International WWE then the update is not yet out for your device. If you have Asian WWE then the update *might* be out for your device, either way we won't know. Share some info on what device you have.
In the first post you mentioned you received the OTA for your device... If you don't get it now then try to do a factory reset and see if you can get it afterwards. Though it would still help a lot to know what device you have. So get adb on your PC and in bootloader mode use the command: fastboot getvar all and share the info, just delete the IMEI and Serial number.

Sprint device? Didn't think you'd have a Sprint one, thought you were from the Ukraine going by your flag choice etc.
Either way, 4.4.4 is the latest for Sprint devices, the Lollipop update is still in 2(Integration) stage so it has some ways to go still before lollipop.

Actually i am from Turkey but I live in Ukraine so my situation - its a little complicated Yes sprint device but what is the difference between the other devices M8 and sprint M8 ? And the seller told me the device from USA.
So my device never will get the lollipop ? Or I have to be patience

Well it looks like you've been getting OTA updates so far, so you should be able to get it when Lollipop is released, whenever that is.
Sprint - CDMA device (Verizon as well).
Other M8s - GSM Devices.
You can look up the main differences between the two with a quick google search.
It's American device yes. It would perhaps have been better if they had the Developer Edition or Unlocked Edition from the US instead of a carrier specific(Sprint) device which runs on different technologies(Radios) for their networks. Generally you won't be able to us a CDMA device "just anywhere" where as GSM is Global. Like I said though, you can get the whole explanation with a simple Google search though.

yes i have been getting OTA update. Patience or custom rom .
I can wait for it I think .
And i dont know my device is unlocked edition or developer edition but i use my phone normally i put a nano sim and the network works very well.
I have searched it and get the main idea thank your very much

[Q] Can't Update passed 4.0.4

Okay, so I have a One X, International with quad-core. CID is HTC__001.
I've had a few problems over the passed year with the phone and I had to send it into HTC twice, and on the second occasion, they replaced everything except the plastic frame.
Ever since I've received the phone back it has had 4.0.4, and I haven't been able to update. I manually search for updates but it says it's up to date.
Not exactly sure where to go from here, I've been hesitant to do anything about it because last time I updated to 4.0.4, which is when I had the problem, HTC had to replace the phone.
Anything will be appreciated. Not the most tech savy when it comes to this kind of stuff
Thanks
Johnny
Look for the 3.14.401.31 ruu and run it. It will flash the phone (if successful) to stock jellybean and wipes the phone. So back up stuff you need. Better to be safe than sorry.

Hey sorry, but just want to clarify, how exactly do I go about doing this, do I just plug in my phone and run the .exe. Also do I need to be rooted?

Your bootloaded should be locked or relocked and you just start .exe file. You don't have to be rooted.
Since you got phone from HTC, bootloader is locked so you can start .exe file right now.
Hey, so I tried to run the ruu. I went through the process and got a "signature error 132" on the Update Utility. So after some research apparently the ruu that I downloaded was the wrong one, which was "RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.31_R_Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed"
In the attached image it has all the information.
From what I understand, something about 2.17.1900.1 is important, but I have no further knowledge and I'd love to hear what you guys think.
Thanks a lot,
Johnny

When you start bootloader are you S-ON or you are S-OFF. And are you Endeavoru XE or PVT
I sssumed because of the cid he was on 401 but has a variant the 1900......not sure that the 401 works indeed
Okay, so after looking around I couldn't find anything with 1900. Would anyone be able to redirect me?
And to answer Thant's question, I am S-ON and Endeavoru PVT.
From what I understand, you need to be rooted to become S-OFF, but this will allow you to run any ruu as it is no longer dependent on the "1900." Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'd love to hear the best course of action from you guys.
Thanks
Well i would check with your provider/HTC ! I assume your bootloader is still locked atm, keep it that way and return with the statement that you can't update it while the update should be there. And if there is no available update then they should give a reason why it's not available !
If they can't help you at all you can try to unlock the bootloader and flash the 3.14.401 firmware to upgrade the hboot. Don't know if it works but might be worth a try

Hey, just ran the 2.17.401.2 ruu and it worked! I'm going to run the 3.14.401 ruu soon, I'll report back with the results.
Thanks a bunch guys
EDIT: Hey so I tried to run the 3.14.401.31 and it didn't work, another signature error. So what I did was scanned for software update and I found an update for ICS, so I updated 4.0.4 further, restarted the device, scanned again for software and there it was 3.14.401.27, downloading as we speak
Thanks guys for the help
Awesome ! And thanks @Thant for this nice find :thumbup:
Don't forget to make a nandroid backup of the stock rom when you decide to install a new custom rom !

If it is a true developer edition, you might try backing up, running one of the Developer Edition RUU's to get back to 100% stock, and then see if you can get the OTA update. If this was a conversion, make sure the CID/MID are correct (which requires S-off).

Then why did you state in the thread title and OP "stock"?
InsertCoin is a custom ROM and not stock. So you need to return to a stock ROM to install OTA.

1540 is US Dev Edition, and the OP has Euro DE. The RUU likely will not run with incorrect CID, MID. And not sure this is the stock baseline he would want to be on.

Don't know where you obtained that info, but its false. S-off is not needed to install any ROMs.
If the phone is a demo unit, you should have stated that right away in your top post. On a previous HTC device (One X) I believe the demo unit was very difficult, if not impossible to make fully functioning. But no idea if the same is true for the M8 demo unit you have.

Sounds like you just got some random advice, with an unknown link and flashed it. Why on earth would you do such a thing? Stick to XDA, at least here you can go by reputation (number of thanks, Recongnized Contibutor, or Recognized Dev titles).

As I just said in my last response, you do not need S-off to flash any ROMs. If you want help, you need to start actually paying attention to the help that is being given to you. You are also making it very hard to help you, by not giving enough info, and just leaking it out little by little.
You say you can't flash any other ROMs, but that isn't enough information. What happens when you try to flash? Does it fail with an error message? Or flash successful, but doesn't boot? What other ROMs have you tried?
If you want to return to stock to receive OTAs, you will need to find and flash the appropriate nandroid and stock recovery for our CID. Stock backup collection can be found sticky at the top of the General section. There are also various guides on how to return to stock, if you need them just search.

Software Status: Modied?

I just got my M8 Developer Edition a couple of months ago. CID is BS_US002. MID: 0P6B12000. The only thing I did to the phone was to root it, nothing else. I didn't S-OFF or anything. The only thing before updating to Lollipop, SuperSU binary update failed, I didn't root again as Lollipop was around the corner and was going to do it anyway. While rooting Lollipop, I found at HBoot that Software status: Modified. What could be the reason for that? How can I fix that? I unrooted, did a factory reset and nothing changes.
Here are the full details on HBoot
Software status: Modified
UNLOCKED
M8_UL_CA PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.19.0.0000
RADIO-1.24.21331147A1.096
OPENDSP-V48.2.2-00564-M8974_FO.1211
OS-4.16.1540.8
eMMC-boot 2048 MB

It's not simply being unlocked as the device ships direct from HTC with the bootloader unlocked. That being said I have no idea what makes it switch to "Modified" status. Mine is S-OFF with custom rooted ROM (though it is sense-based and pretty close to stock) and custom recovery and it still displays as "Official".

I thought they came locked and you can just use the fastboot command like the GPe? Obviously not! In which case, something else has been changed for it to say that

If you're not bothered about setting up the phone again you could reflash the new RUU and it should correct anything that was changed

For my developer edition with CID is BS_US002 and MID: 0P6B12000, which carrier should I choose? Brightstar or Brightstar US or what exactly? And which region should I select? USA or WWE or what exactly? Thanks a lot

Not at the HTC Dev site, those are only Kernel Sources codes.
Most of the US RUUs are available here http://www.htc.com/us/support/rom-downloads.html
It's not on HTC Dev, it was originally on the HTC America support site somewhere...

Thanks a lot! I didn't know that RUUs where available there.

Is there a RUU available for 4.16.1540.8? Could you refer me to that? And could you please briefly tell me how to apply it -from fastboot or what?
Thanks in advance!

See on your hboot readout in your first post where it say OS: 4.16.1540.8? You already have that firmware.

Indeed but I don't think that was the issue at hand. He wanted to change the "Modified" status on his phone.
EddyOS suggested that he uses an RUU to turn everything back to normal, hence why he asked for the RUU.

I have a problem, I can't install BusyBox (Pro) though I have root access and have been using root apps without a problem. Is this related to lollipop, or could this modified software status be a reason for that?
I can't help with busybox issues, never used it, sorry. Doesn't it give any errors? Does it have a log that you can view to see what the failure was?

What was your version number before flashing the Euro firmware?
If you want Euro firmware, its probably best to run the 401 RUU (and "fully convert" to Euro), instead of trying to run AT&T software with Euro firmware.

You should know this. Its important to know the current firmware version, before flashing a new one. Note these important facts in the future.

After RUU, the phone will be fully converted to a Euro M8, including the ability to receive and install Euro OTA updates.

You need to provide more info.
What RUU and where did you get it from?
What was the failure message in detail? Did any of the partitions install (if so, which ones? and on what partition did it fail?)? Or did it abort before any installation?
What does "phone died" mean? Did it go dark right after you tried to RUU? Did it simply run out of battery? Did you try charging it? Does the screen come on at all if you hold the power button for 30 seconds or more?
ruu from that site
https://xq55.ws/?p=34210
* its arabic blog
i cant remember the msg of fail - that was yesterday
phone died is no system but suddenly i find the system works *skydragon v1.6.5

I have no way of helping you with this, if you can't remember the reason it failed.
The link refers back to XDA, so it may be okay, but I really have no way of knowing if it really is or not.
The same RUU from reputable source is posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376
Try running the RUU again, and note or do a screenshot of the error message(s).

Again, that doesn't really tell me what happened. No system means you were stuck on the HTC logo screen? Able to go into bootloader? No recovery at all, or back to stock recovery (red triangle with exclamation).

That is not the right version number for the AT&T version. Please clarify or correct it.
What you have now is a weird mix of hacked firmwares, custom ROM, etc.
So again, I think its best to do the official RUU to WWE (Euro) 401 "clean" fully stock baseline including all stock firmware, ROM, etc. Then see if that improves your signal problem, or troubleshoot from there.
ok i will install the ruu again
is that one is good ?

That isn't an RUU.
You need to get the link for the section labelled RUU.

Just flash the RUU i linked, it will bring the phone back to full stock, you will lose everything on the device so back up what you want to keep.
After its flashed you boot the OS and check in the settings menu for updates, that should bring up the Oreo update
I am trying to do the same thing. I watched the video you linked (thanks), but it is a few years old and doesn't seem to have any links to the RUU for my phone (651). Do you know where the stock RUU for 651 can be found?
I'm on Viper ROM (Nougat-based and discontinued) and would like to revert to stock to get the Oreo updates. If it helps others, the system settings give the incorrect Software Number (they give the Viper number). To get the correct one to identify your phone for the RUU process, you need to boot to download mode. It will there under "OS."

The video is still correct to use otherwise i would not link it here. When you know your correct and complete OS number you can search in the guides section. There are several very hot topics with specific firmwares and ruu's
Appreciate the response. I have the full OS number: 1.80.651.1, but I can't find a complete match. The closest is here, and its 2.51.651.31. Both are Sprint -- is that close enough?

Jup flash it!
So, just to be clear here, does Jup mean either "Just" or "Yes,"?
