Help!

Hello all,
So here's why I'm posting:
I'm having an issue with my T-Mobile HTC One M8 phone. The phone was working great until I tried to install a new third-party TWRP. I don't know if it was miscommunication or what, but in the process of installing it (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ocvavpttfo...ersion_Fix.img), the phone started having issues.
The initial issue was that the phone would get stuck during boot up. The phone was at the current 2.22 build # but in order to make it at least usable again, I flashed an RUU (1.57 build #) and that seemed to fix everything. But then when I went back from stock recovery to my original TWRP, and flashed a recent backup, the phone froze again during boot up. This process worked many times and as recently as yesterday, but now since trying to install that third-party TWRP, it doesn't. I've tried various things but nothing is working. I know that since I can still reach HBOOT and TWRP that there is hope, but I'm at my wits end as to what to do.
I should also mention that I was using the ViperOne M8 ROM (2.1.0). My phone is unlocked/rooted & S-OFF. There were no issues with it again until I tried to install that new TWRP.
I really love my phone, and hope someone on here can help me. After re-RUUing my phone, I'm going to leave it at 1.57 build # and stock recovery (1.12 #) (and USB Debugging on) until I hear from someone. Basically, I just want my phone to be normal again so I can upgrade back to build # 2.22, flash my custom TWRP recovery, and then flash my most recent backup which included the most recent ViperOne M8 update.

[Q] Trouble getting back to stock on German One m8

Hello xda-Community!
First off, I have posted this a couple of weeks ago in the general help thread, however it quickly got swarmed and lost, so I wanted to try again.
I have run into some trouble with my O2 HTC One M8. First, my readout from fastboot:
Code:
fastboot getvar all

I have been running CM11 for some months and am pretty happy with it, but I want to upgrade to Lollipop. However, the phone won't let me do that, as hboot is only version 3.16.0.0000 and Lollipop needs 3.19 (apparently). The version_main is empty for some reason, I did not erase that part.
But now comes the kicker: To upgrade hboot, I need to return to stock (or set the CID to SuperCID), right?
Now, I cannot return to stock, because there is no RUU / nandroid backup for my CID (O2___102).
As I don't have S-OFF, I cannot install any other RUU. To get S-OFF with SunShine, I need to be on stock though, because right now I get the following error message: "Your device has a debuggable ramdisk (ro.debuggable=1). You need to flash a non-debuggable boot.img, stock would be best."
So basically: I need to get back to stock to go back to stock, or am I reading this wrong?
Is there a way out of this?
In the general help thread, someone said I should flash a ROM close to stock (he/she suggested Maximus HD) for this to go away, but I cannot flash any ROM besides the CM11 one I am already on, as none of the other ROMs allow me to boot - I simply get stuck during boot-up and have to reflash CM11 to use the phone.
The recovery I am using is TWRP 2.7.0.2 if that information is necessary or helpful.
Thanks in advance for anybody who can help me.

Have you try stock nandroid backup 1.54.206.5 or 1.12.206.17 from this thread ?

Well god damn it. I had tried those but apparently, they got corrupted in the download. Just tried again (from my laptop) and it worked marvellously. Thank you for your reply!

Desperate: HTC Reboot Hell, even recovery

First of all thanks for anyone who can help me.
I'm quite desperate after spending countless hours on XDA trying to get my phone to work.
I received the phone (international HTC one M8) in a somewhat broken state and I am trying to fix it.
Originally the phone had a 4.4 rom on it which caused the phone to reboot constantly, I couldn't get the rom to update either so I decided to flash it to Marshmallow.
Set S-off, I flashed TWRP and installed the latest Skydragon rom. Wifi wasn't working though so I flashed ruu firmware 6.12.401.4b. The rom worked, Wifi worked, but only downside, it only booted while being charged with a cable, and the sudden reboots started occurring again. So I think the battery might be shotty too. Anyway, I got a device tree warning too, so I reflashed a different Ruu, reboots started occurring even when trying to get to recovery. So I went back to the 6x ruu, tried to flash Skydragon again and then I spiraled into real trouble. Each time I tried to flash a rom, the phone reboots while installing. I even tried the MeID changer to make sure it fits with the firmware.
Long story short, the reboots got worse, I can't get into recovery without rebooting. If I run recovery over fastboot, I get into the recovery, but it reboots when I try to flash anything. I also tried Phil's revovery but same problem.
I can get into fastboot, hboot and bootloader just fine though.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Need more info to proceed. Please do a fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

Sure Thing! Thanks!

It is indeed an M8_UL which is the GSM/Int version.
However version-mics shows: XF SHIP S-OFF
M8_UL_XF is something I have heard of before on a forum (few pages back, there's a thread with a similar case).
Anyway, an ordinary M8_UL will show 'PVT SHIP S-OFF'.
XF is either a 'different' variant or some type of engineer/prototype device.
What do you think @redpoint73?

Here is the getvar all from my M8.
Notice the version-misc.

Thanks @murtaza02, I finally got the damn thing to work because of your comment I realized my CID was bogus and wasn't corresponding with the MID, so I fixed that using fastboot, flashed the EU 6x FUU and the corresponding RUU (https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960687057). And behold, It booted into Marshmellow!!
Now though, the phone still keeps shutting down (not even rebooting) and won't start android without being plugged in. Could this be software related at all? Getvar says the battery is good and when it craps out, (most often when trying to enable WIFI) it shows the battery charging just fine. I still see the device tree warning on boot btw.

As I said, yours is XF and a normal M8 is PVT.
Your device will accept a MM firmware, however there may be a SLIGHT difference in partition/partition sizes hence the device tree error and irregular behavior.
Your CID was not bogus, it was just SuperCID which is used to bypass the CID check during an RUU/FUU flash.
I'm still trying to figure out why (and how) yours is different.

I don't know much about the XF variant, either. But I recall @ckpv5 pointing out the difference to an XF user a week or 2 ago. So maybe @ckpv5 can jump in and give some advice here?

@redpoint73, Thanks but I fear @ckpv5 might not have any more info to go on. I found his post where he referred to the XF variant. He said it's quite possible a US variant, definitely has different partitioning than the PVT version, but didn't know more. I've also seen posts of people suggesting it's a Canadian version.
I bought it on Aliexpress if that is any lead. But in all honestly, I'm really starting to worry I have an expensive paperweight.
One more potential clue, the Alie page suggests the phone only has WCDMA, no LTE, could that be a lead? Ow and one more clue, the model number on the back of the phone is: OP6B100x

Can you link the post, so I can take a look? I remember reading the postat the time, but the details are foggy; and maybe there is something useful there.

HTC M8 ONE stuck on HTC logo.

Hey I posted my problem on the other forum, but i figured this one was probably better for my issue.
I recently tried to root my phone with this (cant post links yet) guide, however something must have not worked out because I cant get passed the HTC logo. I can get into the fastboost mode but im not really sure what to do there. I tried the factory reset with TWRP but with no success. Its also in S-ON and i saw that most guides require it to be S-OFF in order to work. Its a European phone.
I dont have any important stuff on it, I just want it to work again.
Can anyone help me?

In other thread you said you have Germany version, now you said it's European version.
Post fastboot getvar all result without serial & imei no, so people can be able to give you correct direction

oh i was assuming europe only had one version, my bad.

Restore 6.12.111.4 backup. Use TWRP 3.0.2-0, not the one that you're using now (I guess it is 2.7.0.2)
Details on How-To and files : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860

Oh my god it worked . Thank you so much, I can go catch some sweet ass pokemon again!

You can't link, but you could have described what actions you took, in detail. Otherwise we have no idea what you did, and can only guess.
You probably used an outdated guide (and possibly outdated toolkit), which which mean you used the wrong (old) versions TWRP and old version SuperSU, which results in no boot. For your current configuration, you need to use TWRP 3.0 and SuperSU 2.76.
Also, if you make a TWRP backup before making any mods (such as root) you can easily restore that backup if the mod goes wrong (such as the root not working and causing no boot in this case).

M8 stuck whilst loading recovery mode..

So i accidentally wiped the phone including the internal storage and the OS instead of factory resetting (wasn't paying attention) and tried to re install the android marshmallow OS onto the phone which didn't work..
i managed to flash the twrp by following another forum where someone had the same problem, using the adb process to flash the bootloader etc but now i can't access the recovery at all, it just says entering recovery and remains idle until i get bored of waiting and power off.
Can anyone help me?
i can provide whatever information is necessary for you to help, just need my phone revitalised as i desperately need it for my new job that i should hopefully be starting at the end of the week.
thanks in advance!

this is for your device ask there some one will guide you

I have quite the same problem (and i have One M8). Can't enter TWRP recovery, bootloop - just shows an endless loading, i can start the phone without that by pushing pwr button/VOL+/VOL- at the same time (fastboot mode - ok). I want to get the stock back, but it's impossible without entering TWRP. Can someone help me please? It seems that i do not understand this thing anymore.

Fastboot erase cache, then flash TWRP again in fastboot. Try TWRP 2.8.1.0, which is an older version (more compatible with your old firmware). Then see if you can boot into recovery.
Or flash signed firmware, to update firmware (yours is ancient) then flash TWRP 2.8.7 and restore a newer stock backup (corresponding to the firmware flashed).

Thanks a lot. I've tried the first solution and at least TWRP is now working. I've tried the same thing, but it seems, that it was a wrong version of TWRP

Many apologies, turns out i misread the model and its actually the M7 i have. But im glad that this post is helping others with my original problem and thanks to other members who contributed to helping!
