Latest FW-only package is here - https://mega.co.nz/#!pVYWSYSb!5rmmJxhwZ-F9WCWlSQmYoydZhIQZ7XMTypSiBo7zNUA
You can use that and flash a ROM based on 4.19.707.2 and it should all work

Sorry, sow that now.
so just to make sure i get the steps right;
1. flash 4.19.707.2 firmware
2. flash any 4.19.707.2 based rom?
do i need to flash recovery? (currently cwm)
thanks and sorry for the confusion here. i rarely do this stuff so i'm kinda walking in fog.

Recovery is part of the FW package
So:
1. Flash FW
2. Flash custom recovery
3. Flash Lollipop ROM

thanks M8! will try it immediately!

Thank you!!! worked perfectly! back to lollipop with wifi working and all !

first of all dont ever post your IMEI on publick forum, second do as I said, just download 8.1 flash it, if it doesnt work then download 10.2 ARHD and flash it. you dont need to flash Firmware.
ALL THIS IS SAYING YOU HAVE TWRP
but my device is "S-ON" CAN I FLASH THIS ROM?

do you have TWRP? if you have TWRP yes you can.
you only need S-OFF for updating firmware.
thank u G1_enthusiast its alive again thank u again
Yes but there is one problem.....you can't perform official updates from HTC ! It's not the official rom for your phone !!!
You're not stuck in a bad situation, if you ask me. Just download a rom, which supports your device. You're good to go ! What happens if your hard disk goes blank and/or is a new one ? You just install windows back from a dvd, or whatever source. Same here. Just go to the recovery and install a stock/custom rom that SUPPORTS your device. That's it. :good:

[Q] Can ANYBODY help me!?! No ROM showing installed....

I have tried a few newer RUU's since I'm on 3.16 bootloader and S-ON. When I go to flash using the RUU utility, it doesn't show any installed rom...because there IS no installed ROM!
Therefore, it fails. As you can see below...there is nothing showing in version-main. Any idea on how to fix this??? The phone isn't bricked...there's just no rom installed. Should I use TWRP instead??? What RUU should I be using???? (A friend came over trying to return this back to stock, after a bad Venom rom flash)

You have 4.4.2 firmware. The reason ViperOne caused you problems is because you need updated firmware.
You'll need to find an AT&T RUU. You'll also have to re-lock your bootloader before running it. It also will have to be a signed RUU. All three of these things are because you are S-On.
You could also download ViperOne 1.x.x (a 4.4.2 base), put that onto your extSD, and flash that as normal in recovery. It will get you back running, and is a compatible version of ViperOne for your phone.
You can download ViperOneM8 1.7.1 from this link.

I tried doing fastboot oem lock....no luck. Any ideas? Is CWS__001 the correct CID for AT&T M8?

It didn't work? That's weird. Does it show "unlocked" in your bootloader?
And yes it is the correct CID. I wondered why you asked, then saw saw your signature. I knew AT&T because of you being in the US and your CID.
Never mind. I figured it out on my own.

RUU for Stock Lollipop

Hi All,
I'm slightly confused and I was hoping someone could help. My phone is European with SuperCID, so I'm guessing I can install any RUU from the EU that has stock lollipop and it will work? An RUU will flash my entire phone back to stock right, including recovery?

Just did it before your reply! Sorry I forgot to include it initially.
I saw it ... you have T-MOB US version-main on EU device.
If you want it to be stock EU lollipop 4.16.401.10, this thread is for you : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735235
Or you can simply run RUU.exe - https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B17smFr95pleeTQ5U1NzNkZzM0U/edit?pli=1

HTC One M8 - OTA Update Error
Hello,
Could you please advise me on this,
Recently i purchased HTC One M8 from Aliexpress,
And it is a TEST Device, Hong Kong Edition.
I tried to update through OTA but after downloading it shows, " Your phone running modified version of Android, So installation will be cancelled"
I read some threads and i find it more complicated, I don't know what is the actual problem itself. Help me brother please.

OTA depends on your CID/MID and version-main and most probably you have a wrong MID for the software version

Your device MID is wrong. You need to change it to 0P6B63000
See this thread on how-to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708581
and the command that you need is here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54909204&postcount=136
after you change MID to 0P6B63000, install the stock recovery and try the OTA again.. it should work this time provided you have a pure stock 2.11.708.2 with all system files intact.

Thank you so much,
I have two questions ( I am sorry if it sounds dumb, i am a complete novice)
1. Does this process require Unlocked Boot-loader or Root?
2.Install stock recovery? Currently i have Stock Recovery, Is that necessary to install again after changing MID? If Yes, Could you share the thread link please?
Thanks for your time. Appreciate your help.
1. It requires root. If your ROM currently no root, then you need to unlock bootloader and install custom recovery like TWRP to install root/SuperSu
or .. unlock bootloader, install TWRP recovery .. no need to install root and you can run the command to change MID while in recovery.
2. If you already have stock recovery installed then no need. But I believe you need to do as no. 1 then you need to reinstall stock recovery.
All the files needed are in my thread as linked in my signature : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860

Htc one m8, impossible to boot with any rom...

Hello,
Sorry for my broken English, I am French, I haven't found anyone able to help me on the French speaking forums, so I come here, sorry for the inconveniance
I recently got a 2nd hand htc one m8 for a very good price cause the seller did not know how to repair it : impossible to have a rom boot.
I don't know a lot about the past of the phone.
It has the boot-loader, it has the last TWRP as recovery.
its CID is ORANG202
VersionMain is blank
On the bootloader screen, it is written :
Tampered
Unlocked
MS_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.18.0.0000
Radio-1.19.21331147A1.09G
OpenDSP-v38.2.2-00542-M8974.0311
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048mb
Aug 28 2014, 15:03:44.0
Whatever the roms I try, however stock or not, none of them boots well.
At best with the Stock roms of the mobile operator Orange France that get flashed with success, I am stuck at the HTC logo and nothing more... Whatever the stock rom I try...
With non stock roms, the best result is given by the latest cyanogenmod rom nightly that flashes conveniently then gets also stuck on the Cyanogen boot screen.
Of course, I perform factory reset with twrp prior to any flash.
That's where I am now.
Short of idea.
Do you have any that may help me, please ?
Have you tried flashing through fastboot?
MS_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
Check that line again ! MS is not a M8 ! Post the info here from the command :
Fastboot getvar all
Post it but DELETE the SERIAL & IMEI before doing so !

Nothing wrong with your specs, you can flash the latest roms in the development section. Probably a user error. Wiped all before installing a new rom. What rom did you try, which TWRP are you using, what steps did you take EXACTLY !
Just saying you have the same problem isn't enough to work with at all !

There is no 4.16.401.13 RUU, you need a stock backup to restore !
1 - stock software, use a 4.16.401.13 or .10
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3086860
2 - no need to unroot because these backups are NOT rooted
2.1 - if you want future OTA you also need to flash back the stock recovery
3 - you can't LOCK the bootloader, only RELOCK it because your device is S-ON

Your firmware (hboot, radio, etc.) is old. You need to update it to run Lollipop ROMs. Sense Lollipop ROMs won't run properly with your KitKat firmware. CM12 won't work without hboot 3.19.
Easiest way to do so is restore the stock ROM for your current firmware, restore corresponding stock recovery, then OTA up to current Lollipop (which will also update firmware).
After that, you can install TWRP again, and flash the desired custom ROM, if you want.

So your issue is in fact not even remotely close to the OP's problem.
I hate it when folks say "I have the same problem", as from what I've seen, its almost never true. Even if the problem is similar, you should always provide as much detail as possible. Too many variables (numerous CIDs, firmware numbers, ROMs tried, exact steps that go you to this point, and much much more) to just say "I have the same problem".
Hello Redpoint73,
Thank you very much for your suggestion.
I did as you said.
And it sorted out the matter !!!
I am very happy.
Nevertheless, I found it a bit harder indeed cause I did not know the firmware originally installed on the phone (OS line blank), so I managed to find all the stock roms officially posted by the French phone operator Orange (correspunding to my CID), I extracted the recovery.img of each one and I flashed them one after another, flashing its correspunding recovery afterwards. Everytime I needed to install TWRP before a new stock rom flash. 3d trial was the right one and the phone was flashed like a charm. I went for official OTAs after that and now the phone runs great with the latest firmaware and rom.
Thnaks a lot every one !!!!
I have to say I found better help and attention here than anywhere else.
Thumbs up !

This is a known (and common) bug caused by older TWRP builds.
Nice work figuring it out yourself!

Selfie camera problem

I bought my htc one m8 2 months ago.The selfie camera used to work,now it doesn't.I can't even click on the selfie button,when i go into dual mode the front camera appears black in colour and i can't take any photos using the dual camera anymore. so i don't know if the system updates affected the mode.My phone is updated to the newest system update after installing a custom rom ( skydragron v10)

How exactly was that update accomplished?
I have installed the skydragon custom rom
Is returning to a stock rom could be the solution?

@wahab97
You haven't really answered this question. How did you update - via OTA, via RUU or did you just install a MM backup and never updated your device's firmware? Or were you just flashing a ROM? Could you please post your getvar all? Remove imei and serial no. and post this here.
I flashed the custom rom by unloking the bootloader and installing TWRP the phone was in 4.4.2 androud version the rom contains android 5.0 lolipop this is how i have uptaded my htc

So you never updated firmware of your device. Can you please post getvar all as mentioned?
No. I don't know about getvar can you tell me how to do?

fastboot getvar all
adb, drivers etc should be installed already
You mean CID and MID?

That's what we'll get as well if you post the results. But getvar gives more information which is needed to help you.
I will post the results but can you tell me what do you search? what 's the relation about this and the selfie camera problem?

According to your posts you never updated firmware, you just installed a MM ROM. So your firmware seems outdated. We need you to go back on stock (with right firmware as well in case you want to install other ROMs and most posted here need at least MM firmware) to determine if your phone works correctly on stock or you have a hardware issue

No wonder you have issues. Your phone is a sprint one and you use a newer ROM with old firmware.
To update your firmware etc follow this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
PS: edit your Post and remove imei and serial no.
what's the difeerence between HK an no HK? i didn't understand the steps

The HK is a variant of the sprint m8. For your phone you need the non hk. Follow instructions in the thread (firmware first, ruu second). If you run into issues post in the linked thread.
i will lose the root access after flashing this ? and another question i have to unistall the snapdragon ROM before flashing this or no?

Of course you will lose root. But that's not an issue to get root back. But your main priority should be hardware and whether your phone works correctly or not.
Your installed rom is not an issue as well.
Last question can i flash the firmware only and let the skydragon rom?
