What is your current CID?

If you're trying to flash the RUU ZIP you HAVE to use htc_fastboot.exe as the Google fastboot file can't flash the ZIP. You can get it here (I pulled it from the latest EU RUU)

at the moment i'm flashing from SD card, that finds that file automatically. my CID is 111111
When my network reception disappeared i was listening to spottily din't do anything to the phone and din't install anything that required Root for 3-4 weeks, not sure what happened

So tried that method still no luck, hopefuly they will take it in warranty

Post your fastboot getvar all (minus serial no. & imei no.)
I believe you need x.xx.771.x ROM and firmware version because your device is H3G, and I have all versions x.xx.771.x backups

You need SuperSU installed to run that lock command
If you still have TWRP installed (not sure about other custom recovery), you can boot to recovery then run that command while in recovery (this way you don't need SuperSU installed)
just run adb shell
then that echo part
(only two commands)

With this EU WWE details, I don't know whether Three UK will accept your device under warranty ... someone else need to advise you as I'm not familiar with that region.
In my region ... if I have other Asia ROM even with LOCKED & S-ON status, they still cannot accept because the IMEI is registered under ASIA WWE which is x.xx.707.x

I'm in recovery now, but trying and getting this: error: device not found
Just to double check in bootloader i just select Recovery? or wait does it have to be Unofficial Recovery or HTC one?

This phone is going in HTC not Three so dont think that should cause any problems?

Sorted thanks, my device was showing Relocked so had to unlock it again. but now it shows Locket, now just need to get SD card and reinstall system, and send it to HTC only thing i have is S-Off so hope HTC wont be picky about this, because when i spoke to Support staff he did mention that unlocked bootloader will void warranty so not sure how to take on this

Verizon HTC One M7 Not Able To Boot Anything

So this is my last resort.. I have been trying everything for like a week to try and fix this thing. It all started after I tried flashing a custom Viper rom.

After I installed custom rom I got a boot loop which I couldn't fix and have tried RUU's and all and still can't get anything to boot other then CWM Recovery. I have root and the phone still says S-OFF but for some reason it says RELOCKED which I didn't do.

You are not on a verizon software **(bootloader)version-main: 1.29.401.12** . The most recent is 5.28.605.2. Change your cid to supercid 11111111 using fastboot command >fastboot oem writecid 11111111
Then to htcdev.com. register or login. Run the unlock bootloader program following the directions exactly. Then you will get an unlock token. Use that unlock token while super cid (11111111) to unlock bootloader.
There is also a tutorial on here using adb shell commands to lock and unlock

That's weird, I tried using the htcdev method to unlock the bootloader when I first got the phone and it gave an error that it wouldn't work for some reason, and alot of others online had the same issue. Well I'm so glad my bootloader says unlocked again now hopefully I can flash a ROM and get this phone working again, its been about 2 weeks!
How do I find the right bootloader I need and which one do I need to download?
Thanks alot aaronpw

Soft Bricked the HTC One M8

HTC One M8
Unlocked and S-off
From UK so with international network
Cyanogenmod 11 i think
Clockwork recovery
Soooo i bought the M8 secondhand with Cyanogenmod installed, however, i couldnt do any updates due to error status 7. i tried the normal fix (delete code which checked authorisation of phone) but to no avail. since then the error came back and i managed to get a different error on reboot: "root access possibly lost. fix?". I've cleared cache(s) and done a factory reset. No matter what i pressed it would be in a boot loop. I can still get to bootloader and recovery. then i tried to change the recovery to TWRP however when i try and fastboot, my device is not recognised by my laptop so i cannot add the ADB driver to the device.
sorry for sounding very vague / idiotic, i have no idea what i have done and no idea what i am doing to try and fix it. that means sadly i will need to be spoonfed the fix. if you need any more details or pictures of the problem let me know
thanks in advance

Are you trying to update to CM12.1? If so, the error is for a reason, and not to be bypassed in the way you describe.
If you are on an hboot older than 3.19, I don't think it will work with CM12 and 12.1. You'll need to update hboot (and rest of firmware, preferably) to proceed.
Also, CWM may be too old for CM12 as well.

Not sure what you mean here. Are you trying to install HTC Sync (and corresponding driver) by connecting the phone?
You can just do an XDA search for "simple adb" and you will find a couple really easy adb/fastboot installers.
how do i see what hboot i am on? and how would i update it?
i've installed HTC Sync but it doesn't recognise my phone being connected (so i cant view any files on the phone) and i've installed a simple ADB/fastboot but i can't see the driver option when trying to add it to my phone on Device manager. i have got to the stage whereby i have the ADB/fastboot folder and have the TWRP file in the same folder, just i cant get any further.
where would i begin getting to cyanogenmod 12.1, or would it be easier to revert back to a basic android os?
i know this is probably incredibly frustrating for you as i am a complete novice, but i greatly appreciate your help
i would post pictures to help but i cant as im a new member, i will when i can

This in itself does not mean the phone is not connecting by fastboot. And fastboot is the important thing here, so we can update TWRP, etc.
Try rebooting into fastboot mode, and try the command and see if your phone's ID is returned: fastboot devices
If you don't get the phone's ID and just "waiting for device" you do indeed have some type of USB connectivity problem.

Boot into bootloader, andyour hboot number is listed near the top of the screen.
Since you are s-off, its fairly easy to update the firmware (and I would suggest to update all the firmware, not just hboot) by flashing the proper firmware.zip. But let's determine whether that is even the problem, before we worry about flashing firmwares.
hboot is: 3.16.0
also my phone is detected by my laptop so all is well there
i have installed a simple 15 second ADB file but am unsure how to proceed from here
josborn42 said:

Your firmware is very old, so will need to be updated to run CM12.1. Also, newer versions of TWRP will not run with your old hboot.
Do a fastboot getvar all, and post the output, but delete your IMEI and serial numbers (as these are private info). Need more details on the phone (particularly CID) in order to know how to proceed.

I'm going to suggest WWE/International firmware. The updates are available way before O2 updates.
Download this firmware (it also includes TWRP2.8.4.0). Rename it to firmware.zip and place it into your fastboot folder.
Next, boot into fastboot and change your CID to superCID (it won't flash with the O2 CID)
fastboot devices to make sure you are connected (a bunch of letters and numbers/your serial# means you are)
fastboot oem rebootRUU (a black screen with the HTC logo means you are in RUU mode)
fastboot oem writecid 11111111 (eight ones) You are now superCID!
Now flash the firmware
fastboot flash zip firmware.zip
If you get "error 90 hboot pre-update" (and you probably will with how old your current firmware is) run the same command again and the firmware will flash properly. The first run only updated your hboot.
The process will stop at 75% to 90%. That's normal and gives you a chance to check your console output. The last few percentage is the reboot.
The bar will fill to 100% after you enter fastboot reboot-bootloader
That's it. Good luck!
thank you both so much! so now do i just download the appropriate cyanogenmod version and flash it over?

Yes. But there are more ROMs out there as well. Try them out and find the one that suits your needs best.

I'm having a problem being able to launch apps on my One M8 ATT... I Don't have any apps on my home page and ATT Ready2Go keeps crashing on me. Can someone give me a command line so I can launch SunShine on my device through ADB, that way I can S-Off and go back to a different ROM.
Why would you need s-off to install a different rom ?

The phone won't allow me to install anything through an RUU. Every RUU I've tried fails with a 155 Reason (Incorrect RUU) and shows "Loading zip file fail!" in the bootloader. A friend of mine has been working on it, got SunShine installed on the phone. But we want to run it to get the phone in to S-OFF. I'm not too savvy with ABD and that's what he's been using to talk to the phone. I also can't transfer items to the phone via USB even though I have drivers and MTP is running. The phone is a mess and I'm trying to avoid sending to HTC to restore it ($$$$$), or just telling my carrier that I "lost" it and pay the deductible to get a new one. Feels like I'm really close to fixing the phone, just not quite there yet.
If you know of a ROM I could try to flash, I'll give it a shot. I'm running out of options and time. Before I just get a new phone. My friend has helped me out a lot, but it's just not quite there yet.

You need to relock your bootloader in order to run an RUU while you are S-On.
In fastboot: fastboot oem lock
Then run the proper RUU again.
I'd link you to the proper RUU, but you haven't given enough info.
In fastboot: fastboot getvar all and post the results minus your IMEI and ser# (private information), unless you already know what the proper RUU to run is already.

The RUU you need can be found here.
Scroll down to the Manual System Update Instructions, and read them. The RUU download is at the end of the instructions.
You can unlock the bootloader again through HTCDev.com. After you are unlocked, flash TWRP from here in fastboot, then use that recovery to flash SuperSU from here.

I can NOT appreciate and thank you for your assistance in this! I went ahead and locked the bootloader and restored the original image with the RUU you linked me to, yesterday. Couldn't wait to try, haha. I had to sweet talk the HTC Live Chat person to tell me if I could use the RUU for the same software version as I had. Phone has been working like a champ. I'm gonna give it another day or two to settle in, do a few backups just in-case the flash doesn't go well.
I will definitely unlock the bootloader again and flash TWRP and SuperSU. But I imagine going S-OFF is just off the table right now since I'm a bit stripped of funds. I can afford it, haha, but my funds are already allocated towards adulting and such.
Again, THANK you for the support! This has been a learning experience.:good::good::good::good::good:

How to update my M8 S-off SuperCid and TWRP?

hello guys,
I bought this used M8 last night, it was on Kitkat 4.4.4 with the 3.30.651.2 firmware and I wanted to update it to marshmallow (ota not available). I tried this one HTC_One_M8_GPe_Marshmallow-6.0_MRA58K.H9.zip throught the recovery, no error during install, after finishing it, it says no operating system installed, ok, I tried with terminal (adb) it says couldnt load the zip, ok, tried this 0P6BIMG_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Europe_6.12.401.4_Radio_1.29.214500021.12G_20.72.4196t.01_release_464360_signed.zip, error with hboot,ok, tried this RUU RUU_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_BrightstarUS_WWE_6.12.1540.4.exe, it says firmware not compatible (I dont know why since I am s-off and super carrier!?)
the seller told me, the phone is from UK, T-mobile unlocked, but the firmware says its a Sprint one.
All I want now is lollipop or marshmallow, not kitkat !
can you help me please ? just tell me where I messed up, I have some knowledge with android (samsung and LG) but I am kinda noob with HTC (my first phone)
thank you !
NB: the bootloader is unlocked

You still need to match MID (not just CID) to run an RUU.
But its a good thing you did not successfully run those RUUs. Since your are most likely the Sprint version (based on the firmware number), it would have resulted in a brick (radio brick) if either of those RUUs installed.
You can't run other version RUUs on the Sprint M8, or you will brick.
To verify you have the Sprint (and I'm pretty sure already) do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number).
here it is

Yes, its the Sprint version. The product name (m8_whl) along with the main version number confirm this.
If the seller claimed it was T-Mobile, its incorrect. Depending on what you want from the device, this can be a big difference. For instance, you can't convert the Sprint version to be international (as already mentioned, running another version RUU will brick it). You may consider returning the phone due to incorrect, misleading description; if that is an option.
If you do choose to keep the device, you can update with the MM Sprint RUU at the bottom of the following page: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-sprint/news/
Thank you my friend, I thought when the phone is S-off and superCid it means its like a full unlocked international version, I learnt something today , now I am gonna follow your link and give a feedback later.
one last question, is there a risk for losing the simlock after the update ?

Tried nandroid backup
M8_UL_TWRP_Nandroid_6.12.401.4.zip
succefully flashed backup but stuck on htc logo

Please help
What is the problem? Is it not booting into the ROM?
when there was boot.the phone at the startup gave (unfortunately------- has stopped)error and also no back key home key visible.
wiped the device. it was all same.
tried RUU it was the same
unlocked the boot loader
and flashed
stock recovery
twrp recovery
then tried nandroid backup restore
the restore was succefull but the phone wont reach startup (tried 1Hour max)
one peculiar thing i notice.earlier when it was booting to startup i was unable to copy anything to internal or external memory as it would say device not ready or disconnected.but i was able to browse the folders.
My opinion partition problem.Need others help to sort out
Note all the files i have mentioned is checked with md5

None of these will ever work on your device, in the s-on configuration. The RUUs containing "BrightstarUS" are for the US Developer's Edition. They won't run on your phone, as they will fail CID and MID checks (your device has CID and MID - can't change these with s-on).
The one labeled "Europe" is for an older version (Lollipop) than what is installed on the phone (Marshmallow). This will fail version check. By definition, you can't "downgrade" by RUU with s-on
with bootloader locked/unlocked state;
with s-on:
Failed
with s-on, its absolutely mandatory to have a locked or relocked bootloader to flash RUU. Unlocked bootloader will make it fail
Tried zip

This is the correct RUU for your version, and should run with s-on. Saying it "Failed" with no other info, is not enough. Were their any error messages, other outputs, etc.? What commands did you use to run it? Were you in fastbootRUU mode?
I would suggest trying to run this again, with the bootloader RELOCKED, and you also need to use htc_fastboot, as the "generic" fastboot will not work with RUU.

I can't tell what you are referring too, as the statement is really vague. Can you give more details?

Its best if you posted the solution, and what the mistake was. Useful for those helping (to see whether we sent you on the right path), as well as anyone else reading which may have the same or similar issue.
No mistake is that silly when it comes to these devices. Its often just specific knowledge that was missing, or a detail you didn't catch before (which is an honest mistake, either way).
