ok i have been searching for answer for quite a while and did not find anything so i am forced to ask here.
i am on latest 2.22.401 firmware and still have long boot time with latest arhd 10.2
i also started getting red developers warning text which i thought i got rid of 4 months ago.
i am on rogers
gapps crashes to on first boot.
any insights?
Any help?

2.22.401 is international firmware, and is known to not play well with US version M8, so I'm just guessing Rogers would have the same story. Rogers versions are usually very similar to AT&T (if not outright identical aside from branding); as the companies have a close association and actually the same company at one time.
If this is correct, you should try the 2.221540 firmware. This is the firmware packed with the US Developer's Edition and seems to work much better for US users:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54408500&postcount=9592
Also packaged with the ROM here (this is the one I used, personally): http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365
Also, firmware package contains hboot, so the modified (no red text) hboot you flashed previously was overwritten. The 2nd link I gave above contains a "no red text" hboot.
Hi, I'm having the same issues with the same firmware 2.22.401.4 and latest version of ARHD 10.2. Reboot takes ~2-3 minutes.
Any ideas? Also if someone could tell me if there's any other way of accomplishing S-OFF, besides Firewater/Sunshine? (it's annoying to look at the red text for 3 minutes)
I've got the European model, unlocked and rooted, cidnum: HTC_032
Thanks.

If you are not s-off then you don't have the latest firmware. You either s-off and flash 2.22.401.4 firmware, or you remain s-on and downgrade your rom to arhd 8.1, or you return to stock and wait the official OTA to update firmware

Thanks for the advice.
I'm not very experienced, so basically what you are saying is that it's not enough to flash a ROM with sw#2.22.401.4?
Currently i reverted to the newest stock i could find (One_M8_2.22.401.4_odexed) and the boot time is slightly better.
ARHD experience was clearly better, with the sense toolbox and all the features from Xposed, but as I mentioned earlier i can't get S-OFF with firewater, and not willing to try Sunshine YET.
Any idea if my firmware will update OTA running this stock version?
Was looking for a ROM that would contain the firmware 2.22.401.4, but couldn't find any, so if you have a link, I would highly appreciate it.

You are correct flashing a ROM based on 2.22.401.4 is not enough. you need to flash the firmware as well. This can be done only by s-off or if you get the official OTA from HTC. To get the official OTA from HTC you need to have stock rom and stock recovery.
You can get a stock 1.54.401.10 and a stock recovery for 1.54.401.10 here:

Nope. In short, the "firmware" updates a lot of modules that are not touched when you flash a ROM.

Ok, I think I got it, but feel free to correct me, I'd rather look stupid than stupid with a shiny brick.
I'll flash the stock rom 1.54.401.10 from TWRP.
I'll reboot into fastboot and flash the stock recovery.
After this my FW should update to 1.54.401.10 OTA?

You are correct with the exception that your firmware must already be 1.54.401.10. You will be waiting for the official 2.22.401.4 OTA from HTC after which you will be able to flash any 4.4.3 ROM based on 2.22.401.4.
I really have no idea though if HTC__032 has received the OTA yet or not.
The new firmware is not fully compatible with hboot 3.16 if you have s-off, flasha this file to fastboot https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23501681358556103.

I have same problem ,i have insert coin 4.0.5 rom and rom version 2.22.401.4 > kernel ElementalX 1.02 for this rom version (2.22.401.4) But I bought three days ago my m8, I had a system 1.54.401.5 then I got OTA to 1.54.401.10 (I'm from Poland)......and ended up as 1.54.401.10 HTC says that there is no newer update. So I unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp and root. Unfortunately, as I try to do the S-OFF mistake I see so SuperCID is not to do the same with the RUU and uploading packages by "fastboot". So now the question. my cid is HTC__32 article display 1.54.401.10 me as the newest system. So for HTC__32 no recent update and I have to wait? Upload in twrp backup 1.54.401.10 then the "fastboot" recovery1_54_401_10.img and type "fastboot oem lock"? Then wait for the OTA update? Will it work?
PLS HELP
1.54.401.10 seems to be the latest OTA update for HTC_032 cidnumber.
I've just finished reverting to stock 1.54.401.10, both ROM and recovery, and no updates so far. It's a waiting game i guess because i know some ppl from here in Romania who already got the 4.4.3 update OTA.
getting S-OFF doesn't work for me (with firewater), so for now, I'm just glad i could get rid of the pesky Orange branded ROM.
@Bajdaspl: you will need to switch back to stock recovery (NOT TWRP) and ROM and wait for the OTA. Only other way is to S-OFF, but that doesn't work for me either (dunno about the Sunshine + 25$ method tho)

What S-off method did you try, and what was the result?
If checking for the OTA does not find an update, it likely hasn't rolled out for your version yet.
You need to relock the bootloader for OTA (only RUU) and doing so will wipe the phone. You need stock recovery, and no system files altered by root.
I fixed mine!
I had the same issue, I was using software version 1.55.666.4 , and the only way I could get the phone to restart without having to wait about 5 mins, was flashing a stock ROM, since then I flashed the stock recovery, and did the OTA which took me to 2.23.666.2, reflashed ARHD 10.1 , and it's working like a charm!

You don't need to relock bootloader to receive OTA, just stock recovery.

near as I can tell your one is from Cinncinati Bell and you'll probably never see an update. It's similar to a T-mobile One if memory serves me right. Anyway you'll need S-OFF to convert your phone to DE or international if you want to receive updates

you can flash roms without s-off, but some roms are going to need firmware that's up to date. Your phone will not get that up to date firmware unless you get s-off and do the developer edition conversion ( change CID and MID and flash DE RUU)
As Far as your phone being international it really should not matter as long as it's working on the carrier you use, it is a LTE compatable M8_UL

You need to s-off and update firmware to run that ROM, otherwise you will have some serious issues including long (like 5-10 minute) boot times and broken WiFi.
Same is going to happen if you try to run any 4.4.3 Sense based custom ROMs coming from 4.4.2.
Just search and read if want more info on firmware. This has been discussed probably dozens of times on other threads.

Just look in the Development forum section for the threads regarding firmware. You can flash after the fact (after ROM is already installed). But I normally recommend to backup any important data before flashing just about anything "just in case".

Relocking bootloader is not required or suggested.
I'm not sure which firmware goes with your CID. You'll need to research yourself, unless somebody who knows chimes in.
As long as you have a GSM M8, the firmware should be fine. But you may or may not experience some minor network issues, if the firmware is not intended for your carrier.

If you want to use the .401 versions just use the CID HTC__001 and MID 0P6B10000

Gentleman (and why not, ladies):
Installed yesterday a stock GPE 4.4.3 version on my M8. I'm S-ON, stock recovery and rooted.
Just received the info for the 4.4.4 OTA update. My CID is also already set to GOOGL001.
Is it risky to just let it do it's thing? I know that I'll lose root, but is there a problem besides that? Will the process complete sucessfully?
Anyone?
Why don't you just flash the pre-rooted 4.4.4 GPE ruu?

You think s-off is needed for OTA? Why would you think that?
As long as your are stock ROM and stock recovery, the OTA install will be fine.

You can't change CID without it. Have you tried Sunshine S-Off? Firewater doesn't work anymore.
Tried sunshine but need to go to a more stock rom i guess, on sinless gpe at the moment its 4.4.4 and working fine?
Not as good a battery life as i had before on viper but new viper will install but no wifi
You need the latest firmware with the new 4.4.4 roms. Read the viper site very carefully and it explains why
So i just returned to a stock ROM on my HTC One M8 and it won't let me turn on the wifi.

go to your bootloader menu and figure out if that the firmware build number is the the same in the about phone in the setting menu

3.28.401.7 is pretty new. It should work with 4.4.4. Strange issue IMO.
You cannot run a 4.4.4 rom. And without being s-off you cannot update your firmware... Yes you may have flashed a stock rom but not the stock rom you were on previously. You will ONLY be able to flash a rom with it looks like 4.4.2 or maybe 4.4.3.

The second link is the exact link I was following. The only nandroid for Telus is already 4.4.4 so that doesn't help me. I've unlocked my bootloader again and about to gain root so I guess I'll just flash a custom ROM again but I'd love if someone could actually tell me exactly what I'm missing here? If their isn't a stock Telus 4.4.3 I can't return to stock right?

Get S-OFF again and flash the firmware manually. Don't know why you went S-ON and locked in the first place. There is no reason to go back S-ON(Unless you're gonna exchange then it's a small maybe) and when it's S-OFF there is no reason to lock the bootloader.

I was following a tutorial on The Unlockr and he said to go back to S-ON so I listened. I'll definitely make sure to stay S-OFF from now on though so thank you! So how do I manually flash the firmware? I can't find a stock 4.4.3 on Telus anywhere...
EDIT: I'm now S-OFF again and I'm ready to go but I cannot find where to grab 4.4.3 stock with Telus. Would flashing a custom ROM that is on 4.4.3 fix my wifi too? I'm really confused by this whole thing like is Cyanogenmod 11 using 4.4.3 or is it it's own entity or?

Mike's guide
Another guide
Just flash the firmware for the latest 4.4.4 ROM that you have on there.
Grab the OTA file for Telus from OTA ZIP COLLECTION extract the OTA.zip to get the firmware.zip file inside it.

3.28.401.7 is pretty new. It should work with 4.4.4. Strange issue IMO.

He updated the software, not the firmware.
He subsequently verified this by saying he restored a stock nandroid. But I was pretty sure of that already.

go to your bootloader menu and figure out if that the firmware build number is the the same in the about phone in the setting menu
It happened to me too because I used more recent nandroid without updating my phone

Neither of those will tell you the firmware number. You need to look at hboot and radio to know for sure.

The latest is 6.12.1540.4
If you want to update, you can use 4.17.1540.9 RUU to get back to stock ROM then do OTA to Marshmallow 6.12.1540.4
Or you can use a TWRP 4.17.1540.9 nandroid backup and its stock recovery then do OTA to Marshmallow 6.12.1540.4 - you can read my thread on how to do that - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
You can do these on S-On, no need S-Off

You only need s-off to flash an unsigned firmware, or firmware for another CID.
