[Q] Can't install OTA update.

Hello all,
I can't install my OTA update, it only shows the hboot screen (what you see when you hold power and vol. down)
I've done a CWM restore from a nandroid backup for HTC__E11 (my phone)
I've restored the Stock Recovery.img from a nandroid backup for HTC__E11 (my phone)
I've restored the Stock Boot.img from a nandroid backup for HTC__E11 (my phone)
I still can't install an OTA update (3.20.401.1)
How do i solve this ?

A recovery.img inside a nandroid backup is never a Stock one. Its the custom one where the nandroid is made with !!!
Flash this one and try again

I've unlocked my device again, installed CWM.
The following steps are:
1. Nandroid restore
2. boot.img flash
3. recovery.img flash (the on from the Dropbox link)
4. fastboot oem lock
Are these steps correct ?

i dont make nandroid backup because andoid and all file erase on my phone when i instal other RUU....i instal RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_Vodafone_UK_2.17.161.4_Radio_2.1204.137D1.21_release_280390_signed
when i instal that RUU change my main version

That ruu does not work. When you unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom you need to make nandroid backup. That ruu could not wipe your phone because it doesn't install at all ! Now you can only return to stock with a stock nand backup.
So what's the issue ? What did you do ?
You previously installed the 2.17 ruu. Then updated the phone ..... and then ?

You can't downgrade to 4.0.4 if you are not S-OFF. And no S-OFF for HOX

Give us the result of the command
fastboot getvar all
Tho looks like you want to downgrade, so only if u have an s-offed hox you can do. Which u might have since you installed diffderent ruu.

You can't go back to 404, touchscreen will not work. You can only go down to 4.1.1 with a custom rom.

how i can go to 4.1.1 ?

1: unlock bootloader
2: flash custom recovery
3: MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP !!!!
4: flash the boot.img from the 4.1.1 custom rom
5: make a full wipe in recovery (do NOT wipe the sdcard)
6: install the 4.1.1 rom.zip
Make sure it's a rom with a main above 3.16.xxx like 3.20. Or 3.18......

Going back to stock

Just a quick question that I'm sure I know the answer to but want to double check first.
I want to return to stock firmware for OTA updates but im on ARHD 5.0 (4.4.2).
ROM version 1.54.401.5
My hboot in bootloader says HBOOT-3.16.0.000 and Radio 1.15.2133156.UA13G.
I've seen 2 guides on here for returning to stock. Can i use wither of them or is one better than the other? I dont have any nandroid or recovery backups that I did myself.

What was your original software version? Doesn't help going on ARHD's ROM version if you previously ran a Rogers Canadian version for example.
What was your CID? Software version prior to custom ROM?
More details then we can provide better help as well.

The original version would have been 4.4.2 as i bought it in June and installed ARHD pretty much straight away.
The CID is HTC_001
I havent installed any new kernals either.

Ok when I said version I meant 1.54.xxx.x etc but it's fine, HTC__001 would make it 1.54.401.5/10.
So go to the Collection thread(you posted link yourself in OP) and download the backup for the HTC__001 1.54.401.10. Restore the backup, flash back stock recovery(also available on that thread) and you're good for OTA.
Flash back stock recovery -
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
But you can also get the details on how to flash and where to unpack the backup .zip file you'll download in the first 2 posts of the collection thread. :good:

Sorry yes i was originally on 1.54.401.5 but then did an OTA to 1.154.401.10 before installing ARHD. Can I just flash the nandroid for 1.154.401.10 then and it will work?
Will I still be rooted If i restore the nandroid and stock recovery or will that depend if the uploader rooted it first? as i want root and keep unlocked bootloader but want stock firmware with OTA updates.

In general the nandroid backups aren't rooted, as they try to recover the original stock ROM. Thus you will loose root be going back to stock. I would do the following:
restore nandroid 1.54.401.10
flash 1.54.401.10 stock recovery
perform ota to 2.22.401.5
flash custom recovery (e.g. TWRP)
flash SuperSu zip
Following that way, you'll get your M8 updated to latest stock ROM and regain root.

Yoda

Thanks that's perfect

Sorry mate,

Did you try to perform the OTA before or after reflashing the custom recovery?

1. Are you sure that's the correct backup ? You mentioned earlier your stock ROM is 4.4.2 which is should be 1.54.401.5 or 1.54.401.10
Post result of fastboot getvar all (delete serial no. & imei no.) to determine the correct version.
2. You need to replace the TWRP that you installed with a stock recovery.img
OTA needs stock recovery.img not TWRP.img
Can't use TWRP for OTA update, use only stock recovery​

It is definitely the right one, extracted from a 2.41.400.5 RUU by the user who shared this. As mentioned you should power up your phone normally and let the ota install.
If it's not happening that way then your ota file might be corrupted and I would suggest that you RUU back to stock if you can't boot into Android or your backup cannot be restored somehow.

That is the Nougat RUU for your device. You should be able to use this to get back to stock nougat and take OTAs to Oreo. Currently no Oreo RUU is available for the Indian version so this is the only route.
Just download the file and rename it 2PS6IMG.zip, place it in the root directory of your SD card and flash it in download mode.

Just take ota to Oreo and your imei and baseband problem will be solved, unless you want to stay on nougat. In that case you follow the steps listed in the thread you linked in your previous post.
