Hello people, my friend owns a Desire EYE. The phone is running Android 4.4, it's S-OFF but the bootloader is locked and the recovery is stock. The problem is that when I search for updates it says that there are no updates available. The phone had supercid (11111) and I changed it to HTC__032 just to see if the OTA was available but no luck. Any ideas?

Hello. I want to start by saying that I am a complete noob on HTC forums, just purchased HTC one X 3 days ago, upgraded from Galaxy Nexus. I bought my phone second hand, with 1.36 HBOOT and 3.14.401.31 firmware, unlocked bootloader and CWM installed. It was previously locked on O2 UK, but former owner unlocked it. I saw that there are newer firmware versions: 3.18.x.x and 3.20.x.x but they don't show on my OTA updates. I installed stock recovery and relocked bootloader, but still nothing. Is it because i have old HBOOT and not the newer 1.39? Is it because it was unlocked and had CWM installed? Am I doing something wrong? Or 3.14.401.31 is the latest firmware for me, and there are others in the same situation. I live in Romania/Europe if it helps. I am keen to resolve this problem because 4.2.2 will come in short time and i don't wanna miss it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
Oh, and i have S-ON and CID O2_001 if it helps.

You should not did that, the developer edition includes different software than the one you own. If you get the OTA and flash it successfully, you will have even more problems.
Try to get back to your original MID & CID and restore your nandroid backup (because you did a backup before touch that, right?) and have some patience until your OTA arrives for your carrier. There's nothing improving your battery, performance or phone signal into the 4.4.3, just minimal fixes.
Best regards,
ducted.

You need to set the MID and CID to that of the GPE phone.
I'm gonna guess there are existing threads on how to do this. You need to be S-Off.

Hi mtraore21,
It looks like you've got your CID. Have you looked at Flippy498's Back-to-Stock spreadsheet? It looks like there are some RUU files that might help you.
An important caveat: you'll want to be sure you were flashing a RUU that was a lower version than the firmware you currently have - my understanding is that you'll damage your phone, or at least soft-brick it if you do that.

Have you tried the HTC website? I had a very similiar situation with my phone and downloaded the current ROM from there - an RUU file that all I had to do was double-click to run and it did everything else. My M9 was returned to "factory new" when it finished. I worried myself half to death but it was SOOO simple! Just find your particular "variant" from the website and select "download".

Hi,
As much as I tried to look for this information, I didn't find a clear answer.
I have an M9 running 1.32.401.17 (stock recovery, from an old RUU), which is S-Off with unlocked bootloader. I was really expecting to get all the OTAs, so you can imagine my surprise when I didn't get any.
I then thought that I need to relock the bootloader, and then I will receive the OTAs. I relocked the bootloader, and again - no OTAs.
1. For an S-Off phone, should one receive OTAs with unlocked bootloader, or does one have to relock the bootloader (if so, to "locked" or to "relocked") to get OTAs?
2. Is the OS version on my phone so old that OTAs are not provided anymore?
3. Does it mean that if I manage to get a more "contemporary" OS version on my phone I'll get the OTAs?
4. If none of the above are correct, what do I need to do to get OTAs on my S-Off M9?
Thank you very much.
Adrian
Thanks to the fantastic post from Nikolay82 "HTC One M9 - 3.35.401.12 RUU installer how to guide!"
https://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/help/htc-one-m9-3-35-401-12-ruu-installer-t3318517
I managed to upgrade to 1.40.401.8.
After that I started to get OTAs (I'm now at 3.35.401.12) . So I can confirm that one doesn't need to relock the bootloader for an S-Off phone in order to receive OTAs (S-Off and UNLOCKED is fine).
I still don't know why I didn't get any OTA update for 1.32.401.17, but I'm happy that it worked from 1.40.410.8.
Cheers
Correct bootloader unlocked makes no difference. S-off makes no difference.
There is a possibility that htc have stopped the release of the earliest firmware. There is also a possibility that there was a problem but it would be solved by the update you did.
Even with S-ON you can receive updates with an unlocked bootloader.
The reason for your issue was the firmware you were using. 1.32.401.17 only got distributed in one single country. Therefore, only one specific CID of the handful of CIDs that belong to SKU 401 supports this "special" firmware version. In other words, you can't update a M9 and are stuck with that firmware if you aren't using the supported CID. The only solution is flashing a RUU with a different firmware version. That's why the RUU for 1.32.401.17 isn't linked in the ReadMe thread.
Edit: I can't tell you which CID actually corresponds to that "special" version since I forgot which one it was.
