HTC Desire A818181
I've been attempting to unlock the phone via HTCDev, but the fastboot oem get_identifier_token command kept on failing.
Apparently this was an outdated HBOOT.
What's interesting, is that I have the LATEST ROM version, while the HBOOT is OUTDATED.
ROM:
Android 2.3.3,
3.14.405.1
BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 1.02.0001
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.17.05.23
Jul 22 2011,16:19:16
All attempts at RUU have failed, as it tries to update to an OLDER ROM, but NEWER HBOOT, and it says that the ROM is outdated, despite being the opposite, and suggest an OTA update from the phone's settings, which obviously fails (as there is no newer version)
Of course, I can't root it in any other way, as Unrevoked's downloads never start, and Revolutionary's site is down.

Was error did it give?
you need hboot 1.03 to make root with htcdev
this can be done e.g. with Firmware 2.29.405.14 and upgrade with PB9920000_Bravo_Froyo_hboot_1.03.0003_R.exe on HTCdev site BUT
you should Downgrade your firmare first, but
That unpossible without ROOT.
i have a similar problem and has not yet been solved
Android 2.3.3,
3.14.405.1
HBOOT 1.02.0001
That happened after i make downgrade from 1.03 hboot to get the full s-off,
but I didnt know what revolutionary.io is down
then I would have immediately made a downgrade to a lower version.
You can try to get a root that's in this way that I have described , but I can not try it - my power button do not work in stock recovery.

I was able to temp-root with zergRush and downgrade to 2.2 Froyo, but HBOOT doesn't let me upload itself.
The PB99IMG.zip method has also failed, as the HBOOT doesn't recognize the signatures for any other HBOOT I want to install, both for the RUU HBOOTs and AlphaRev ones.

Thanks for the tip I finally made root with htc dev, again hboot 1.03.0003, now i can put Custom Recowery, its not full s-off, to get s-off necessary downgrade hboot to 0.93 and make this with Alpharev iso.
But I guess what to do next, I'm going to try now... :good::good::good:

For a long time I tried to fix my HTC Desire. I had s-off, 2.3.3 Gingerbread and hboot 1.02.001 after official upgrade straight from phone. I tried to unlock the bootloader, but without any success. I tried also GoldCard method and find some modified Ruu version .. and nothing.
Then i start think.....
I download 3.14.405.1 Ruu and start it, with Task manager i open package location, copy it in new folder and start research... Basically i found out i can make pre-upgrade hboot, i download ruu from htcdev.com/bootloader start it and from temp folder copy rom.zip and paste it in that new folder, and simply start the process.. After i can follow htcdev.com bootloader unlocking skipping ruu upgrading and root it, then just get from market Rom Manager and install recovery... Finish!
Sorry for my bad english...

You can't install custom rom or any other non stock shiped rom on relocked hboot because after flashing rom you have to flash boot.img.
Now you can either flash stock shiped rom or unlock hboot (bootloader), flash rom, flash boot.img and format the cache, data and system partitions and wipe the Dalvik cache.
When you restart your phone should normaly boot.
If you want to flash stock shiped rom: http://www.androidruu.com/?developer=Ace
If not, I recomend this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382235
After you flash one of that rom you can try to root it again.
Where did you get stuck in rooting?
I really hope someone can help me!!
Tried to flash new boot loader version to 3.19 to install CM12 through fastboot. Had an error at the end saying it failed. I then tried to go back to stock and update with OTA's to get the new boot loader version so I could flash CM12, but that didn't work either. Rebooted phone and it was dead. Tried to do a wipe and restore nandroid backup. Said it couldn't read file. When I had my 64gb SD Card in the phone the Radio and Open DSP come up as invalid on the boot loader screen. But if I put in a 1 gb SD card or no SD card the Radio and Open DSP are OK. Put in a 1gb SD card with the CM11 zip and tried to flash in CWM recovery, looked to install OK, but still gets stuck in boot loop. Have tried re-flashing a few times and no luck.

I can't find the RUU for 1.54.206.5 anywhere. I've found nandroid backups, images, etc for 1.54.206.5 but they won't flash (I my be doing something wrong). Any other ideas? Can I run a newer RUU?
I got the WEE 1.54.1540.10 BrightstarUS RUU but it said it wasn't compatible? My CID is o2___001. Do I need to try find something that matches that as well as 1.54.206.5?

Ok, I feel insanely stupid, but last night I flashed LiquidSmooth on my phone and everything looked awesome. I didn't realize it until this morning that the sound doesn't work on the phone (my alarm didn't wake me up), and out of curiosity, I started digging around and realized that it wasn't able to play videos and the microphone didn't work for any apps. As I looked online, I realized that I needed to update my firmware to get my functions back. Since I haven't done this before, I jumped online and followed along with a guide that told me to run the command 'fastboot oem lock' before I flashed the firmware. It was early, so I didn't think about it until I hit enter and then realized that I just relocked my phone that runs off of an unlocked recovery/ROM.
Upon booting, it shows the bootloader screen:
*** TAMPERED ***
***RELOCKED ***

If I choose to try to go into the bootloader, it reboots the device and ends up right back at FASTBOOT. The only other screen I am able to get it into is the black HTC bootloader (fastboot reboot oem rebootRUU).
I've done some research on it, and it looks like I absolutely must unlock the bootloader before I can do anything, but without being able to boot into adb to run Firewater, I can't think of any other way. I feel like the OS 1.10.605.10 being red is what stands out to me, but I am unable to find a 1.10.605.10 signed/encrypted RUU to flash to it (anything unsigned fails). Also, here is the getvar information that I cam coming up with -

Near bottom of second post is a link to the ruu for the version of your firmware so you can use rumrunner to s-off and unlock again. Be sure to download the signed one. You would flash it in ruu mode (fastboot oem rebootRUU, then fastboot flash zip ruu.zip twice to successfully flash the ruu). You could use the 4.4.3 s-on ruu, but then to unlock and s-off you would have to use sunshine.

Thank you!
I couldn't find the signed firmware anywhere else, so I nearly gave up. This totally worked and my phone is now alive and well!
I've stuffed something up along the way and now my M8 seems to refuse to load any ROM I've installed on it. What's the best way to go about fixing this? It's unlocked with S-Off.
Flashing an RUU is a silver bullet for starting over, as an RUU formats all your device's partitions and flashes them with stock images.
You'll need to provide CID & MID or your current firmware version (i.e. 4.16.401.10) if you need help locating a compatible RUU.
Cheers
Need some more details to see why the phone won't boot into OS after flashing a ROM.
Is an OS number indicated on the bootloader screen? If so, what is it?
What version TWRP?
What ROMs have you tried?

I've tried flashing a few different RUUs and they all come out with an error 155. Googling it suggests I need to relock my bootloader but locking it and running the RUU again gives me the same error. I'm using SuperCID 11111111 and my MID is 0P6B70000. Currently on firmware 4.16.1540.8.

Your MID and firmware number don't jive; and it can indicate something pretty dangerous (and possibly a radio bricked phone).
Need more info on what you've done.
Do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete serial number and IMEI before posting).
Was the phone new and stock (unmodified) when you got it; or did it have a previous owner?
Please list all the mods you have applied (s-off, changed CID, changed MID? etc.).

I got the Unlocked/Developer RUU from HTC's site but that didn't start up for me so I tried a bunch of stuff, fiddling with firmwares and unlocking/relocking bootloader and so on but in the end the RUU just hadn't downloaded properly. Once I managed to get the RUUs to run they've all come up with error 155 when they start the flash and flashing the rom.zip direct gives me an error (I forget if it's the same or different)
I've also tried restoring assorted TWRP backups, installing new roms and so on, directly flashing boot.img, things seem to flash ok but the phone just boots direct into fastboot.
Update: I'm not sure what went differently this time but I've installed the latest Cyanogenmod nightly and it's starting up as expected.
I'd like to get back to stock though. What's the best way to go about doing this? The phone was already modified when I got it so I'm not sure what it would've had on it when it was purchased originally.
Edit: A bit of googling suggests this is a Sprint handset (I dismissed this to begin with since I'm in Australia and didn't think it'd be an overseas handset, but ok) so I've flashed 6.20.651.3 firmware and am waiting for a matching RUU to download. Fingers crossed!
Edit again: All sorted now, thanks for your help!

Happy to see your sorted it out.
I agree it appears to be the Sprint version, based on the the MID (0P6B70000) and product name (m8_whl). While the MID can be modified, the product name is typically not (never seen a mod method for that - so the product name is very reliable).
That being said, I would strongly caution you moving forward, to not flash any firmware or RUU to this device except Sprint M8 firmware/RUU. Reason being, the partitioning on the Sprint phone is different from most other versions; and flashing another version's firmware can lead to a radio brick (phone boots, but nothing requiring the radio will work).

This is Sprint version, same as OP based on the model ID and product name. Although main version would indicate the Sprint Harmon Kardon version. RUU can be found at the bottom of the following webpage: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-harman-kardon-edition-sprint/news/
The M8x designation on the back cover can't be trusted in this case. The back cover has been replaced to remove the "Sprint" logo branding. We've seen several phones like this (back cover replaced to remove evidence of branding) on the forum. You have to go by the getvar data.
Also, be sure to remove your IMEI and serial number from the getvar output. These are personal data, and should never be posted online.

Thanks a lot for the tip! I'll bear that in mind going forward.
Hi there I seem to be having similar issues. I purchased a refurbished M8. The case indicates 0P6B110 M8x however fastboot getvar all gives:

Going off the info in the thread I downloaded RUU 6.20.651.3.
While verifying I want to update the ROM version it states:
From:
Image Version: 1.54.651.8
To:
Image Version: 6.20.651.3
After clicking next and progressing I get Error 155.
On the fastboot recovery screen shows:

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

To run a Marshmallow RUU, you need to fastboot flash its firmware.zip first.
1. flash 6.20.651.3 firmware.zip
2. run RUU
You should be able to find the firmware.zip in Sprint section
Or you try to find one version lower (lollipop) than 6.20.651.3 RUU, run it then do OTA to 6.20.651.3

Just to confirm, if I get a lollipop version, do I still need to fastboot flash a firmware.zip?

No .. not needed, run Lollipop RUU then do OTA to Marshmallow
Hello,
I received an HTC M8 with a costume ROM.
I tried looking at the forum on how to get it back to stock but couldn't understand which RUU i need and where to get it.
In the System info it says crDroid version: crDroidAndroid-7.1.2-20170607-m8-v3.4.
Any help will be much appreciated.

P.S
Can i turn the device into Google Play Edition

Post fastboot getvar all result (remove serial & imei no.) then we'll know what you need.
You can't turn it to GPE with S-On but you can install GPE rom after you update its firmware to Marshmallow.

Your device is same as mine which is a Asia WWE but yours in lower version.
You can get RUU_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_hTC_Asia_WWE_4.19.707.2_Radio_1.25.21331147A1.06G_20.69.4196.01_F_release_414204_signed.exe
from here - http://androidruu.com/?developer=M8
After you installed RUU, do OTA to 4.19.707.4 and finally to 6.14.707.1
You need to relock bootloader before you install RUU
After OTA is done up to 6.14.707.1, you can reunlock bootloader and install latest 3.1.x TWRP and install any custom ROM that you like or install GPE ROM.

Hey ckpv5, thanks for your reply.
I couldn't relock the bootloader and couldn't understand how to use the RUU, from my knowledge it should be a zip file but it's an exe file.
Please advice?
Mostly the RUU that comes directly from HTC is in exe format as you can see here : http://www.htc.com/us/support/rom-downloads.html
What you need, read this : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926362&postcount=4
I believe you already have adb/fastboot installed as you already gave me the getvar output. You need that HTC USB drivers and also a Windows PC with USB2.0
To relock bootloader
Boot your device to bootloader/fastboot and type this command after connecting to PC
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
To install RUU
After your device bootloader is relocked, while still in fastboot mode and connected to PC
Right click the exe and select run as Administrator, you'll see instruction screen. Follow all the steps as instructed .. accept, next, next, blablabla until it is completed.
Once finish, reboot your device.
Thank you ckpv5.
Sorry for the late response, it worked and now i'm back to stock.
Thank you very much.
