Hi,
So I have a GSM HTC One M8 that is rooted and running a custom rom and recovery.
Due to the 4.4.3 update, I need to update my firmware. From what I have read in the forums, I first had to go back to the stock rom and recovery. Which I did. The nandroid back up process went fine, but the stock recovery wouldn't load up for me. And also, the stock rom is already at the latest 4.4.3!
When I tried to go to settings and check for updates, it says that I already have the latest version installed....
Few questions.
1. Do I need a stock recovery to be able to get the OTA update?
2. Is this the only way to update my firmware?
BTW, my device is S-ON and Unlocked.
Stock Recovery
Dear friends,
I have an HTC one M8
Android-5.0.1
Network Provider- Three Republic of Ireland
Bootloader status- Unlocked
S-ON
CID-H3G__001
I am trying to do an OTA-4.25.771.6
I was on TWRP Custom Recovery
I tried to reflash to stock recovery to do the OTA and unsuccessfully tried the below mentioned Stock recoveries from XDA developers.
stock+recovery+1.54.771.5+recovery.img
and
stock+recovery+1.12.771+recovery.img
I see a Red triangle with an exclamation mark when I try to run the Stock Recovery.
Can anybody suggest any solutions
Many Thanks

Those recoveries are way too old to work, it needs to match your current firmware (hboot, etc.), which sounds like Lollipop Android 5.0 (those are Kitkat Android 4.4.2 recoveries).
I assume you have the stock Lollipop ROM? Since you need the stock ROM (in addition to stock recovery) to OTA. And trying to install the recent Stagefright OTA?

You need to install 4.20.771.2 stock recovery or the one that from OTA 4.25.771.6.
And make sure you have a non-rooted stock 4.20.771.2 ROM running on your device

Dear CKP5
Many thanks for the reply.
Do I need to unroot my Device which is already on Stock Rom to do an OTA.I have'nt messed with any default apps that came with the device. I am already receiving the notifications to do an OTA on the device.
I could'nt find the stock recovery.Can you please give me a link to the same.
Regards
Definitely you need a non-rooted stock ROM.
If you unroot your ROM, most likely it won't work either as the root itself change some files.
Restore the system part only from a non-rooted backup to avoid problem. You can keep your data.
Install stock recovery then do OTA
Check link in my signature for all files that you need.
And FYI .. this OTA will upgrade your system to 5.0.2 but unfortunately the stagefright fix only fix 6/7 vulnerabilities
Hi, I have a friends HTC One M8 who rooted it and added TWRP recovery and is S-on.
The phone is on the original HTC software version 4.19.61.2 and I have found the stock recovery for this. the phone has never had any other roms installed.
He wants to get the OTA updates and just need to know if it is ok to flash the stock recovery back without any problems.
After flashing the recovery if this is ok, is there anything else we would have to do to get the OTA upates.
Thanks in advance

Root causes problems even after the unroot option inside the app.
So he needs a full non rooted stock backup + stock recovery. or a ruu if it's a available to get the phone back to full factory stock
Hi,
Thank you for your reply.
He is on EE, software version 4.19.61.2
Do you have any links for a stock Backup or RUU
Many Thanks

Check the general section, there is a dedicated stickied backup thread. And there is one here in the Q&A "how to get back to stock with TWRP backups"
Thank you
Hello,
i have been un-rooted my HTCone M8 since 6 months and i flashed the lollipop 5.1 downloaded from one of your forum based on advice from an expert, and currently it gives me notification about a software update: 4.19.118.3 (128.18 MB), after the download finished, i restarted the phone, at this point the phone took me to the flash screen TWRP and warm me that it cannot flash the updates.
please can anyone help me to solve this issue, because i stopped the update notification but the phone still continue warming that.
thank you,
OTA can't be installed with TWRP .. it needs 4.19.118.2 stock recovery.img and pure non-rooted 4.19.118.2 ROM then you can OTA to 4.19.118.3
You can get the stock recovery and how-to here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Hi,
You must first flash stock recovery. OTA updates can not be flashed with custom recoveries.
hi guys - so i tried to install the revolution rom on my recently unlocked m9 and it'd only boot to the bootloader or download.
i found some threads back from 2012 that said twrp wouldn't install the rev rom, but suspect it's out of date - it seemed to work fine.
is there some magic here? i tried to flash my firmware to the version matching the rom (3.35.401.12) and got a code 10 failure in adb. my current firmware is 3.10.605.7. doesn't flashing the rom update the firmware too? or do i need to successfully flash the rom prior?
should i use a different recovery? twrp launched the rev aroma installer and all seemed to go perfectly smoothly... no problems came up until reboot brought me right back to bootloader.
the aroma install says it might boot loop a couple times, but i booted to bootloader 5+ times before giving up and going back to a deodexed stock vzw rom.
any help is greatly appreciated - i'm hoping to get up to marshmallow before calling it good enough and moving on.
Flashing the rom doesnt update the firmware. S-on makes sure of that.
You must be on the base firmware for the rom to take. You need the vzw marshmallow ota update before you can flash a marshmallow based rom.
