HTC Sync Manager doesn't detect with custom ROM - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The title says it all. My M8 doesn't have the stock ROM, and I want to get it back to stock. Since I can't get it updated from the phone settings, I've tried with the HTC sync manager but it doesn't recognize the phone at all, probably because it isn't running original firmware. Would appreciate your help.

Does the phone respond to fastboot or adb?
What CID (carrier version) of the phone?

Fastboot is working well. And I haven't been into adb. Also I don't know the phone's CID.

Then post "fastboot getvar all" result (without serial & imei no.)
You don't need adb for this, fastboot is what you need .. then we'll see the next step.

I do not know my phone is rooted or not. But i think it is not rooted. I am also helpless how to install RUU. Can you show me a guide or tutorial to how to root and install RUU. Your help is much appreciated. It is more than obvious that i am ignorant.
Do you boot into recovery or the boot menu?

Hi,
Have you had the phone from new? If so it's definitely not rooted - you would know, if this is the case then I would presume your phone is SIM free too.
U would suggest downloading HTC Sync while your phone us not connected to get the drivers your phone needs the search on thus site for mini-ask.
Once you have them connect your phone to your PC and boot it by holding power and volume down buttons once in bootloader, select the fastboot option.
When fastboot usb is displayed open from pc a CMD prompt and type "fastboot Getvar all" you should see mire information about your phone. Look for bootloader number and compare thus to android roms on www.shipped-roms.com
Get a WWE RRU If this is appropriate to you and open the exe while following insructions.
Lets hope that us straight forward for you.
Apologies for frankness I am typing thus from my phone.

I had a new phone and it is also sim free.
I have installed HTC sync and also when i connected it to USB with my PC windows installed Android ver 1 driver
Now when i open cmd and type fastboot gervar all it gives an error that it does not recognizes the command
Kindly let me know where i went wrong. Thanks
I downloaded and installed fastboot from http://dottech.org/21534/how-to-ins...ows-computer-for-use-with-your-android-phone/
It gives bootloader version as 2.00.0027
Now the site you suggested lists a lot of ROM for desire HD. I am not sure which one is for this mobile. Thanks
Hi... I forgot to mention that the cmd window current directory must be the same one you run the cmd from...
Did you see other bootloader output like cid, s/n and imei? If so you have it working.
I would try some Roms that contain WWE in the title.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841890
Though it should be as easy as booting the phone into fastboot and then connecting the phone to the computer - you should see Fastboot USB, when this is displayed it should just be a matter of running the RUU file and following the instructions. The battery should be charged over 30% otherwise you will get an error, stating so.
from there it is just a case of flashing the right one for your phone.
If using stock rom just flash Your Own RUU via Fastboot. if not;you are using a custom rom. Open that zip file and take out the boot.img file. And you need to do this via CMD
fastboot flash boot boot.img
this code will flash your kernel and fix the problem.
ps: I dont need to say that you need adb,fastboot files eh ?

Rumrunner won't pass test 1

Hi there
I am trying to gain s-off via rumrunner. I followed the instructions closely but when it attempts to check the bootloader and fastboot, it fails. My phone (Sprint m8), boots to boot loader but then it just sits there and rumrunner fails.
What is going wrong and how do I fix it? My phone is rooted and unlocked. I've got insertcoin and twrp flashed. Is there something wrong with fastboot? Please help as I am eager to gain s-off. I am thinking about just using Sunshine, but I don't want to pay the fee if it's not even going to work.
Thanks

Rumrunner hasn't worked for over a year and a half, and Firewater hasn't either.
Sunshine is the way to do it now if you want/need S-Off. You could buy a Java Card, but it would be more expensive.
Oh, wow , okay thanks. Yeah I thought it was weird but I was watching a video that was uploaded one week ago and the user was using rumrunner. I'm still a bit of a noob with this but the reason I am trying to gain s-off is because when I flash a new rom I either get stuck at the bootloader or the boot image. I'm guessing it's because I'm a-on and I would have to flash using abd commands on my pc? If I am wrong can someone please let me know? It's a bit confusing. Thanks

Is your firmware up to date?
Tell me what it says next to "OS" in your bootloader. If you are using an old version of TWRP, it may be blank. If it is, post the results of fastboot getvar all to determine the firmware version from that, but remove your IMEI and serial# first as that is private info.
Well it is blank. It just says "OS-".
How do I execute the fastboot getvar etc. ? In a command window on my computer or? Sorry. Noob is shining here
I just updated twrp like last week though?
Yeah my twrp version is 2.8.5.0

Did you buy the phone rooted, or did you use ADB and fastboot to root yourself? Yes, you do it in CMD with the SDK/ADB software. Hook your phone up to your PC, open CMD in ADB (shift+right click and choose "open command window here")
enter adb reboot bootloader
then fastboot getvar all
I rooted it myself. I just tried it and got nothing after it says <waiting for device>. I could also be doing this wrong too though. SDK...Is this android audio whatever? Because I've been trying to find that and that's where it brought me, from every link. I downloaded the actual package with the program tools so I think I have it right but I'm not sure. Thanks for all the help by the way
I think I've got the right sdk tools and all. I just found another thread where someone had the same issue. He said it fixed magically overnight, but another said to uninstall the HTC drivers and reinstall on my pc. Guess I'll try that, unless you know another solution?

Okay. You "think" you have SDK? I'll tell you right now, your firmware is out of date. Run the software update/RUU from HTC's US website. I would tell you if you should run Sprint's standard RUU, or the Sprint H/K RUU, but since you have failed to provide me with the information to direct you to the proper firmware update that I asked for, I guess you can figure it out on your own by searching your CID and MID from your getvar output.
Here's a link to the HTC US Software Download page.
Good luck!

If you unlocked the bootloader yourself, you have a working adb/fastboot environment.
Be sure you are booted into OS, and have "USB Debugging" enabled in settings, to issue the adb command suggested by xunholyx.
Thanks @redpoint. Sorry for my ignorance and lack of knowledge guys, just trying to get things straight. Im guessing my next step as of now is to get my boot loader locked again and get my stock recovery back so I can update my firmware. It seems like I can't do much until I do so. I downloaded sunshine and it gave me an error about flashing a "non debuggable ram disk". Thanks again for your help. Any other advice is much appreciated

You shouldn't be "guessing" anything.
You have failed to provide the proper information (output from fastboot getvar all) which has been requested 3 times now. Can't provide the proper guidance without more info.

s-off isn't going to automatically (all by itself) fix your problem (flashing a ROM), if that is what you think.
You have 2 potential (probable) issues:
1) The ROM won't boot if your firmware is outdated (s-off makes it a bit easier to update firmware, but its not strictly required to do so)
2) ROM also won't boot if its does not specifically support the Sprint version M8
I'm failing to provide the info because it's not giving me the info! I'm guessing because I'm doing this on my own more or less

I have no idea what that means. Your computer is sensing you are doing this "on your own" and deciding it doesn't like that?
If you are having issues executing the advice given to you, you need to state that, along with the specific results, error messages, etc. A screenshot may also be helpful.
If you don't post that you tried, and it failed; all we can do is assume that you ignored or missed the advice.
If the computer is hanging "waiting for device" when you try "fastboot getvar all" then you should try another USB cable, another port, re-install HTC Sync, or even try another computer (if possible).
But I have no idea of knowing what the issue is, if you don't tell us.

HTC one M8 error Cannot mount SD card

Hi there.
Im really new, but I will try to explain.
My brother Htc m8 was updating(usual pop up update from HTC,) last night and after reboot he gets the Cannot mount SD card error, and get stuck into a loop.I can load into recovery, or into bootloader, and thats it, from what ive read past couple of hours I need USB debbuging mode, in order to flash the ROM but as for now I cannot connect my device to the PC to run ADB and Fastboot, and to flash the ROM.Any advice in how to get into USB Debuggin mode ON, or its a lost cause ? Thanks in advance.
You don't need Debugging on, to use fastboot. But you need to be in bootloader-fastboot mode.

While fastboot does not require debugging on; adb does require it. adb also only works within OS (which you don't have) and recovery.
It sounded like you already had a plan to recover, based on your OP, and just needed fastboot working. Would need more info to help you with further steps.
Is it a stock device, or has it been modded before? Bootloader LOCKED, UNLOCKED or RELOCKED?
Do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).
The error is about internal storage no mounting? I assume that is the case, as I don't see how an error with (removable) SD would prevent the phone from booting.

The error is probably referring to the internal storage, which is treated as an SD card by the OS.

Ohhh yes, its been modded. Just not by you.
It was originally the AT&T US version (m8_ul_ca) that was s-off and had the CID/MID changed to SuperCID (11111111) and Euro MID (0P6B10000) then had Euro firmware (6.12.401.4) installed to remove AT&T software.
It probably also had its back plate changed, to remove the AT&T carrier logo. The model number on the back plate, may even contradict the Euro model number show in your getvar output.
Does it say LOCKED, UNLOCKED or RELOCKED on the bootloader screen (I'm guessing LOCKED)?

Htc One M8 Factory reset gone very wrong

Hello everyone I'm new around here as a member but I've been using this site to custom my android devices since my Samsung galaxy s (the first one), you guys are the best. But now I have a problem and I just can't find the solution. So my htc one m8 (best phone I had my entire life) yesterday I've decided to give it to my father as I upgraded. And I wanted to make a factory reset. As I was late for work I started the factory reset and I left for work. When I came home, disaster. The phone reseted but It's a mess so I will try to also put a video. So the phone does not have the setting app, and also I can't open the settings through the shortcut in the bar. And also I can't connect to mobile data, wireless, nothing. I reseted again. Same thing. Also it's not recognised by my laptop. I'm really out of option. I searched all the internet for a solution to flash some kind of rom but I can't even activate USB debugging cause I don't have settings on. I know for sure that the device is s-on and unlocked. I really don't know other details as I can't go into "about" section. Any advice is welcomed. Thank you.
Ps: I see that I cannot upload the link from YouTube with my video so the name of the video is: Htc one m8 after factory reset
other details as in "about" is not important.
The one that is important is the fastboot getvar all result, post it here then we'll see what you need.

Which RUU that you tried to install ? You can only install 6.13.771.4 RUU and also you need to use htc_fastboot to install, not the generic fastboot and locked/relocked bootloader.
Is your device bootloader unlocked ? If it is and you have latest TWRP installed, you can restore non-rooted stock backup which you can find here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
I don't think 6.13.771.4 ruu is available so the above is your best option.

[Q] Returning to stock rom,

More and more financial apps are detecting my phone as being either rooted, unlocked bootloader, or custom rom. My phone is UK HTC one m8, running resurrection Remix nougat 7.1.1 (which I love) , it is rooted and has s-off, I have recently relocked the bootloader with toolkit. . I'm thinking of going back to stock rom, to get these apps working again. I'm thinking of using a RUU file to do it, I know this will revert root, but not sure about the bootloader & s-off, can anyone confirm this for me please?
you can run the RUU it will revert the device back to stock and it will remain s-off
the bootloader status ( locked,unlocked or relocked ) doesn't matter for flashing RUU with s-off device ( no need to relock it )
But how i can with s-on ?

Fastboot issue
Apologies, but I am performing this return to stock on my HTC one M7 before I attempting it on my HTC 0ne M8, this is why I posted this in the M8 section.
OK got S-OFF and then started the process to return to stock. Cant remember at what point but I had to nip out and left the htc-one m7 connected doing something when I came back the phone was sat all started up ready to configure ( like it does after a rom install) only thing , its was still on the ROM I had installed so i thought the installation had failed, I tried to reflash, an older ROM SLIMKAT 4.4.4. to see if that would help , but now I cannot get fastboot to register with the device .
Go into bootloader select FASTBOOT, FASTBOOT appears as the selected option, and then PC returns an error stating device not recognised.
I know the drivers are ok as everything works as it should if I do the same on my HTC One M8.
Here are my HTC one m7 details:

Here are my HTC one m7 details:

There is no reason this should be posted to the M8 section. We can't help you. Folks with specific knowledge of the M7 are the best equipped to help you. Advice intended for the M8 may even harm your M7.

Yes I understand tat, but I am looking at restoring my M8 as all my financial apps are now failing due to the root, unlocked bootloader, or custom ROM, so was testing the restore on my M7 before I attempt it on my M8. I understand the basics but am no expert so wanted to test first, which is just as well as the M7 restore has failed and now cant get fastboot to recognise my devices. although I think this may be something to do with my laptop I am using to connect.
Any thoughts on this?

Again, I can't be sure that what applies to the M8, applies at all to the M7. Which is why I suggest posting to the proper device forum (the fact you want to then to the same to the M8 has little to do with where you post).
At least for the M8, as long as the device is properly in fastboot mode (which you already confirmed, with the previously posted screen shot) then lack of fastboot connectivity is almost always something on the PC side (not anything with the phone). Try another USB cable, try other USB ports. Try to uninstall and reinstall HTC Sync and the HTC drivers. Also, you can try going to Windows Device Manager, finding the phone, and see if you can pick the option to manually select the drivers. Then pick the generic "Android MTP device" drivers, and see if fastboot will then work.

Clockwork Mod recovery never officially supported this device. There were some unofficial versions that worked decently (and some folks really liked it), but stopped being updated around 2 years ago, so do not properly support any remotely current firmware versions. Therefore, errors are expected. And if there is an error trying to restore your backup, it's probably not possible to fix that (restore that backup).
My recommendation would be to flash TWRP recovery, then you can install the stock TWRP back from the following thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Otherwise, if your version has RUU (they are specific to your version CID, MID) you can use that to go back to stock, as already discussed.
Also bear in mind that restoring to stock with either method will wipe your data. So plan accordingly (backup data to an off-phone location) before doing either method, if you want to keep anything.
If you need specific guidance for your M8 version, do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

fastboot erase cache, and try to install TWRP again.
Also, TWRP is typically installed with fastboot, not adb. Fastboot and adb are related, but not the same thing. And confusing the two can cause problems. So make sure you are doing it properly. Cut and paste your command prompt command and outputs, if you can, so we can verify.
What TWRP version did you try? Proper TWRP version depends on your current firmware version (as mentioned in the guide I linked). So we really need for your to do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).
How can i identify my firware version in order to use proper version of twrp?
And please put the link of page that help me to install twrp. Thanks a lot

It is contained in the output of the command: fastboot getvar all
Do the fastboot command, post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).
I've already asked for this twice (this is 3 times now) and I don't like repeating myself. Please take the time to read and fully understand what I've posted (or anyone else trying to help you) before you make your own posts.

Asking for this to me implies that you don't know how to do it. Yet before you said you did it, supposedly successfully.
Describe step by step (and also ideally, cut and paste your command prompt) how you tried to install TWRP.

If you actually tell us what you did (describe each step, exact commands, file names, as much detail as possible) then we can tell you if it is right or not.
If you don't tell us what you did, we can't tell if it is right or not. For instance, maybe you did it right, but just not the right TWRP version.

If there is something you don't understand, ask questions. Ignoring multiple requests for information is not going to help us help you. Your English is fine. I've helped folks with worse English than yours.

That is strange, the command looks correct.
What happens if you type: fastboot getvar all
Note that the output includes your IMEI and serial number, which are personal data. So if you do another screenshot photo, and it includes the full getvar output, be sure to hide your IMEI and serial number.
Alternately, you can copy and paste you command post text by right mouse click in the command prompt window, select "Mark", then drag the mouse to highlight the desired area, then Ctrl+C to copy.
Then post in a reply (Ctrtl+V to paste) and you can just delete the IMEI and serial number lines.
