So, I keep converting the HTC One M8 to GPE and back to Sense using the RUU.
I'm wanting to go back to GPE for a bit, 5.0.1 but i use the HTC Backup to restore
messages, contacts and so on without me having to do in manually (which is annoying).
I want to know if the HTC Backup app will work on the GPE Lollipop version and if so,
Could you link me to the apk i can use?
Thanks , appreciated.

Couldn't find anything else about this but i found another thread that was never responded.

EDIT: !!
I RUU'd into the GPE Version of 5.0.1 Lollipop and i tried the HTC Backup , side loaded and it crashed, so, no, It won't be able to restore all my stuff (Bad HTC).
I wanted to avoid having to wipe and re-install my apps and messages, But yeah, it will crash.
(This for future reference for anybody else with the same question)
I created a Download link for those who want it:

Wish I'd seen this earlier....
I flashed GPE Plus+ today (http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-google-play-edition-lollipop-v1-00-t2963927)
My only backup was with HTC Backup, because it's been so reliable before...
UGH!!!

Hi,
I know this thread title looks like something that's been covered a million times, please bear with me as I've been searching the forums for hours now trying to find an answer to my particular problem.
I have a One X which I was running IceColdJelly 2.2 on up until recently, and I want to revert back to stock in order to sell the phone. The problem I am running into is that my phone is locked to O2 UK (CID: O2_001) and my version number is too high to use the appropriate RUU (version-main: 3.14.206.27).
I have restored using a 3.14 Nandroid backup using the "Getting back to stock..." guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859714) and an O2_001 Nandroid backup (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1975140).
However, the phone still appears to be rooted, as SuperSU is still in the app drawer. Is there any way to downgrade far enough to be able to use one of the available O2 RUU's, the newest being 2.17.206.2 from http://www.androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Endeavor ? Naturally my bootloader is still unlocked in this current state as well...
Many thanks for any help with this.
Hey guys I'm going to be receiving a used but relatively untouched m8, and would like to check to make sure I'm not forgetting anything.
First of all I remember reading that the first thing I should do before anything else is redeem the 50gb's for Google drive. I know next comes firewater for s-off. Then remove red text from bootloader with new fw, install new Rom (possibly install the hk mod) and then mobile transfer my data from my m7 to m8. Am I forgetting anything important? Any suggestions on roms? I'm currently using viperone on the m7 so I'm assuming that will be my first choice but I'm always up for suggestions. Thanks guys I just want to make sure I'm prepared before I have it in front of me. Thanks in advance!

I've been trying to comb through the forums for info on how to restore the stock recovery for my Sprint HTC One M8 so that I can install OTAs.
The threads available are too confusing so if someone could walk me through it on here, that would be much appreciated.
For a little history, I've successfully rooted two phones using instructions on the forums. My old HTC EVO and now my HTC One M8.
I did so to install CyanogenMod 11 but went back to stock rom so that I could use the full potential of the camera.
Now that I'm back on stock, with CWM still on my phone, and I can't install OTAs.
It seems that ViperROM keeps the camera intact but isnt available for Sprint phones.
Can someone walk me through restoring the stock recovery?
I'm using a PPC Mac but I do have the ADB and Fastboot for PPC Mac so I can use those options if its part of the process.
My software version is 1.54.651.10
If you need any more info let me now.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I've recently unlocked my phone, rooted it and flashed it with InsertCoin 5.0.3 attempting to convert it into a GPE but failed at S-OFF. I now want to convert it to the original state as I want to get OTA updates and I want it to be completely stock. I accidentally wiped the stock rom when I installed the custom rom. I'm not too experienced with this kind of stuff and would like to go back. Is there any way around my mistake? I've tried searching but not too sure what I'm looking for.
The guide I used was htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-to/convert-your-htc-one-m8-into-google-play-edition-0154471/
My M8 is a UK model on EE.
Thanks
Hi,
I've currently got a HTC One M8 running Android 5.0.1 and Sense 6. I'm about to root it, I've backed up my apps, contacts etc. using the HTC backup app, I just wanted to know if after rooting my phone (I'm staying on Sense 6) I'll be able to use the recovery option to recover all my apps and data,
Thanks,
PJRaphael
