WiFi issues since flashing latest ARHD

I followed the instructions fine and never hit a snag, upgrading from Android 4.4.4 stock but rooted to the latest ARHD running Android 5.0.1. I'm not sure if the issue is related to the lollipop update or the rom but once my phone screen locks I lose my WiFi connection. I can go into WiFi and see the available networks, select my one and click connect but nothing happens, the only way to get WiFi working again is to restart the phone which is becoming really frustrating. I have tried forgetting the network then re adding it too but the issue remains. Anyone else had this problem or know of a fix?
On a less annoying note when iIstart up it first acts like it's loafing bootloader with the red text at the bottom of the screen then restarts itself and boots fine.

Your HTC is WWE and your bootloader is at 3.19 so i suggest to restore a stock backup from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3086860
Take the 4.16.401.10, that will work. And if you also put back the stock recovery you can also perform official OTA updates.
READ the opening post very carefully as its very good explained !

1.22 radio - firmware 3xxxx
Hboot 3.19 - firmware 3xxx - 4xxxx

Im now back to stock, running the latest firmware - no more updates available and though it was fixed but the wifi has just dropped out and had to restart to get it back (I can see the network it just will not connect). Does this mean it is a Lollipop issue?

Post the current getvar all.
Also, you should delete the serial number from your last getvar all (and the new one, of course) as that is personal info.
You may need to OTA again. I think some OTAs had WiFi broken, even on fully stock devices; and it was fixed on a subsequent OTA.

If you restore a backup 4xx10 and made Ota to 4xx13 he did not update the firmware. Must restore the backup 3xxx and make ota. This will solve the problems with wifi.

I was thinking along those lines (why I asked for updated getvar data) as the radio number indicates 3.xx firmware.
But I am surprised up updated at all, with the improper (old) firmware.

I do not see any other reason malfunction wifi, in addition to hardware failure.
The last ota was not large, so it may be that it could be downloaded. Let's wait author may write off something that already everything is running or not

finding the right RUU

Hi,
second try. First post didn't go through... good thing I didn't save what I typed.
I'm trying to update my firmware, I've read somewhere that a RUU is the easiest way to do so. The one I found "somewhere" doesn't go through with the update proses. It spits out error 155, bootloader is relocked hboot version is 3.16.000 and I'm S-on (not that I was able to change that).
I'm loosing my patience and I'm about to throw the phone in the trash. I've some one can point me to a RUU that work with it I'd be in your debt. The carrier is O2 Germany BTW.
thanks and happy new year.

Even though I can guess which RUU that you might need .. is best to post
fastboot getvar all result without serial & imei no. to confirm it
If it is really a O2, I'll link you the RUU

Yeah .. not to post them online.
Here is your RUU - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934555499
This will update your device directly to lollipop 4.20.206.1
then after check for software update, I believe there will be a few more OTAs

Thanks for the quick response. I've started the download, but slow internet means it'll take about 45min I'll report back once I'm done.
I realized I haven't really said anything about my intentions, I did that the first time I wrote the post which wasn't posted because my session in the forum got kicked or something.
I wanted to update CM to CM12 and I've managed to flash a stock ROM with lollipop but wifi won't work. So my main concern was updating the firmware so that I can flash CM12. This would enable me to do so?
thanks again.

Restore a stock ROM, you can't use lollipop. Wifi won't work because you have hboot 3.16.0000
You only can restore 1.54.206.10 stock ROM and its stock recovery then do all OTAs up to lollipop then only it work for wifi and other thing.
Using a RUU will remove everything on your device including internal storage (so make backup) then it will update everything including firmware to lollipop. So it is faster compare the nandroid backup method. You have less OTA to do.
Got to rest now .. already in bed .. its 4 AM here .. I'll check your progress tomorrow .. good luck

When you asked for RUU I expect you know all the requirements to run RUU ...
Your problem is related to PC/USB to device connection problem ...
You need to relock bootloader before you run RUU because your device is S-On
(I believe you did that as stated on post #1)
and you need a Windows PC with USB2.0 and latest HTC USB driver installed.
If you're not sure about HTC USB driver - download HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
install then after uninstall HTC Sync Manager but leave the HTC USB driver

My bad forgot to deínstall the sync manager... BRB.
Edited: That did the trick RUU worked flawlessly and all is fine now, as a token of my gratitude I donated some money. It's not much, about what I can afford right now, but I felt like it since I#ve been struggling with this problem for so long now.
So thank you very much for the quick responses and the patience. Have a nice year!

You need htc_fastboot.exe to install the RUU zip.
Follow the steps as explained here but using your own RUU zip (skip that no.1) -

Thank a lot bro please help me out of a new problem, ur method worked completely fine . I successfully switched from custom to stock rom and then installed the updates available. Now i wanted to root so
I unlocked bootloader using htc dev
Started the phone and all the apps optimized which took around30-40 mins
Now i shifted to bootloader installed twrp then installed supersu which i had already put in extsd
Phone didnt started for an hour stuck on htc screen
Used adb reboot bootloader and repeated everything all again right from fastboot oem lock doing ruu and all still it is same
It works all very fine before installing supersu after that all chaos dont know what to do

M8 only boots into fastboot

Hi guys, I need help bringing my phone back to life. I tried to return my phone back to stock by running a RUU. But now I've learnt (the hard way) it was the wrong RUU and now I can only boot into bootloader. There is no recovery I can boot into. This is the getvar:

I tried to find the correct HBOOT and CID version RUU but to no avail. I've tried another RUU for 0P6B but I think it was MID 0P6B1000 while mine is 0P6B3000. And most other solutions involve have S-OFF which mine isn't. I'm not sure what else I can do. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I think you want the RUU for 4.18.708.12, if such RUU exists. I don't know if it exists or not, but this at least give you a starting point to look (seems like you were somewhat guessing before).

If your bootloader is unlocked ... you can install TWRP 2.8.7.0 then restore 4.18.708.12 stock non-rooted backup and install 4.18.708.12 stock recovery.img then do OTA to Marshmallow 6.16.708.1

#4 is correct
boot into fastboot means that ur system got some problems
or even isnt exist
restore a TWRP backup or flash a stock rom will help

I agree, if there is no RUU for the version, than the way forward is to restore a stock TWRP backup. Unlocked bootloader is required.

M8 starting up in Fastboot, won't load installed ROM

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.

My OS number is 4.16.1540.8, I've tried TWRP 2.7.0.1, 2.8.7.0 and 3.0.0.0, roms I've tried include CM13, SkyDragon and a stock TWRP backup I found in another thread here.

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.).

Ok, here's what getvar all reports:

I bought the phone second-hand, it was running a custom ROM (SkyDragon) with cid already set to 11111111 and I wanted to return it to stock. 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.

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?

You shouldn't be trying "a lot" of RUUs. You should be trying only the correct RUUs for the Sprint M8. Flashing RUUs for other versions is dangerous, and can lead to permanent damage to the Sprint version M8.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
Did you buy this phone? And you received it with cell data not working? If so, you should return it to the seller (if possible) rather then messing around with it (possibly breaking it worse, and voiding any possibility of return to the seller).
Also, you should delete IMEI, serial number, and MEID from your post. These are unique to the device, and should never be posted online.

All the RUU files that i had tried for the same model ONE M8 WHL
No I didn't buy the phone but it's my job to make a software for the phones
When I received the phone cell data was working but the problem was there is no traffic when you turned on the wireless
But my problem now there is "no baseband"

This still doesn't tell me which RUUs you tried. There are 14 RUUs on the thread I linked. Which ones exactly did you try, and in what order? Did you use the exe or zip method (and if the latter, was it by htc_fastboot, or SD card method)? Did the RUU(s) install completely and successfully, or were there error messages? If there were error messages, what did they say exactly?
Basically, your posts are short on details. You should be specific and detailed as possible, when asking for help.

Understanding that English may not be your native language. But I don't know what that means "there is no traffic". Can you try to explain another way (again, more details may help).

Where are you seeing "no baseband". In the getvar you posted, it says baseband number 1.09.20.0119
You also did not delete the personal details (serial number, IMEI and MEID) from the getvar output, as I previously advised.

I'm so sorry for being late

Is that the only RUU you tried? Before you said you tried "a lot of RUU flash files kitkat or lolipop " and when asked which RUUs you tried, you list only one. So one of those statements is incorrect or incomplete.
Hard to diagnose the issue (or may give incorrect advice) is we don't know exactly, step-by-step, what you did, and the state of the device at each step.
One important example of this: Are you absolutely sure you only flashed Sprint RUUs? It's a known problem, that if you tried to flash a non-Sprint RUU or radio baseband, that it will result in a radio brick (possibly permanent, but usually can be fixed).

I am still wondering about the original state, where you said: "When I received the phone cell data was working but the problem was there is no traffic"
I asked before, what you meant by this. You still haven't explained (only given the current state).
Again, it's hard to properly troubleshoot the issue, when it's pretty clear we've only been given a portion of the info.

Thanks for keeping in touch

According to XTC2CLIP support all of M8_WHL flash files are Sprint or sprint and harman
then I tried this file
RUU_M8_WHL_M60_SENSE70_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_Harman_6 .20.654.3
I'm so sorry maybe I didn't explain my problem exactly when I posted it
"" I am still wondering about the original state, where you said: "When I received the phone cell data was working but the problem was there is no traffic"
I meant there was no traffic when you connected to wifi there was no data transfer and this problem was solved by flashing the latest file
Now my problem is there are no imei and baseband in the normal mode but in the fast mode are exist

Try the older RUUs, like 2.16 or 3.30, and see if that fixes the "no baseband' issue. If so, try to RUU back to a more current version (6.20) and see if the fix "sticks".
Of try to flash the firmware only, and see if that helps (not exactly the same as flashing an RUU, so be sure to read the instructions on how to flash firmware). Firmware and instructions are on the same thread as the Sprint RUUs, which I linked earlier.
