finding the right RUU - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

here's the result I put in "****" instead of the serial & imei no. as I guess you meant I shouldn't post that online?

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 deĆ­nstall 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!

There is no RUU for your current firmware version which is 6.14.707.1
Install the latest TWRP 3.x (don't use your current one which I believe is 2.7.0.2)

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

[Q] New OTA, completely lost and frustrated!

Hi guys!
few days ago I got this new update (3.32.771.3) on my device but as I'm running TWRP I couldn't just update it so I found my stock recovery and tried running the update but it failed at around 30-35% with a red triangle.
I tried doing a factory reset and of course that didn't work either. Tried installing Viper ROM without luck. Everything seems so damn complicated, to run this you need this and that and to install that you need something else.
I'm so lost and frustrated, what do I do?

After recovering the backup, maybe try a factory reset with the stock recovery and proceed on with the OTA

You are super CID. Just update your firmware to the newest. The firmware you're using now is 4.4.3 based.
It's super simple. Go here to find out how.
Then load a 4.4.4 custom or stock ROM.
Easy peasy

You are super cid, so it doesn't matter UNLESS you pick firmware that is carrier specific.
I'm going to help you out here.
Download this with your phone.
Rename firmware to 0P6BIMG.zip (the first character is a zero, NOT A LETTER O)
Put renamed firmware.zip on your external_SD
Boot into hboot and let it update its firmware.
No PC, no adb, no fastboot, no terminal is needed, just a root explorer to rename and transfer the renamed firmware file to external_sd
After you have updated your firmware, make sure to remove the 0P6BIMG.zip from your external_sd because it will ask to update your firmware everytime your reboot to your bootloader which it is technically supposed to do but its unnecessary after you have done it once (unless you are planning on flashing firmware again).
Profit!
All credit for this goes to @skulldreamz.
I copied and pasted from his thread, because I didn't feel like typing it all out.
EDIT: And a huge edit buddy!
I just noticed your hboot is 3.19
You already have the newest firmware. LOf*ckingL!!

I'm on Android v. 4.4.3 (2.22.771.5) do you have any link to a guide or something how I can install 4.4.4 OTA or maybe Viper?

Compare post #1 with post #9.
Go to fastboot (power + vol. down), and post what it says there.

HTC ONE M8- Stuck In Bootloop After Trying To Update

After Update bootloop ... please help!
Hello everyone!
So im trying to fix this HTC One M8 since yesterday. My gf tried to install the latest update, after she did the phone went into bootloop.
It was rooted, TWRP recovery installed.
Now i tried yesterday to get i back to stock, but strangely nothing seems to work. I downloaded a couple of ruu ZIP files, none of them worked. Only thing worked was the cyanogenmod but well... she wants her phone back to stock
Every Stock-image i could find was for 4.16.401.10, but the phone says its 4.16.401.13.
Please help me! What exactly must i do in order to get i back to stock?

In addition to stock 4.16.401.13 ROM, you will also need stock recovery. Since TWRP is on the phone, OTA will cause the phone to boot over and over looking for stock recovery (and not finding it).

Unless the RUU zip is 4.16.401.13, its going to fail CID or version checks.

You can get .13 stock nandroid and recovery here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Note this is a nandroid, and not a flashable ROM zip. So restore according to the instruction given in the same thread.

Did you try with the phone in fastboot mode?
Any response if you type the command: fastboot devices
Response should be the phone's serial number if you have fastboot connectivity.
What Windows version?
Also, as previously stated, unless the RUU is 4.16.401.13, it will fail anyway.
I got it! Thanks a lot! Seems really like I was too stupid to find the thread u posted

Its actually a bit hard to find, as its in Q&A. Deserves to be made sticky.

HTC One M8. Noob needs help fixing phone.

Hello, so quite sometime ago I rooted my phone, or unrooted it. I am not sure what the term is, I dont even remember why I done this in the first place. Anyways today I wanted to just put my phone back to like it was when I got it, and in doing so I have actually broke my phone I can't get my phone to boot up anymore, I always get a message saying I have no OS installed. I am really useless with all of this so I would appreciate it if there is a patient person out there who can help me get my phone back on and back to how it was when I recieved it. I am sure I need to add more information but I dont know what so please tell me what you guys need to know and I will try and provide the answers.
This should be the first rule when asking for help.
Post fastboot getvar all result (delete serial & imei no.)
Without this info, no one will be able to offer any help

Where do I find this?
Do you have fastboot & adb on your PC ? You should have one, if not how can you install a custom recovery and root your device before ?
If you're not sure .. install this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
Put your device in bootloader mode and connect to PC
Open a command prompt and type fasboot getvar all then "enter"
Copy the outcome and paste here

I think thats what you want right?.
Yes .. that's the one.
You have two options :
Option 1:
Install new stock ROM with a RUU - Download : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934555499
you need to relock bootloader - run command fastboot oem lock
run RUU (right click the RUU and select run as administrator)
you need to use USB2.0 on your PC
RUU will wipe everything on your device including your files on internal storage
Option 2:
Restore a non-rooted TWRP backup 4.20.206.1
No need to relock bootloader
No internal storage wipes
Read how-to and all the needed files are here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Good luck .. I have to sleep now, good night

Option one just stays on updating 0/6 sending and nothing happens. Option 2 doesnt make sense to me, I really have no idea what most of it means.
Ok so this morning I tried option one again. It went through the first 6 stages fine, then it got stuck on the next set of stages at 1/7. When I restart my phone into the recovery screen type thing I have in red letters OS - (4.20.206.1) but I am still unable to start my phone up. I have disabled firewalls and also using USB2.0 when trying to do this process. Maybe this one that has been linked is not the right one for me? Or maybe I am doing something wrong?. I would really love to get my phone back working so all help is really appreciated.

You have USB/Device connection problem. First it was 0/6 and now 1/7 ...
Which windows version that you use ? try with a Win7 PC .. I don't know many people cannot run RUU on windows higher version that Win7. I don't have problem on any windows version including my current Win 10.
What do you don't understand about option 2 ? It's very straight forward.
Install latest TWRP 2.8.6.0 or TWRP 2.8.7.0 (you need to reunlock bootloader because you relocked it for option 1)
Extract and copy the backup folder to TWRP backup on your device
Restore backup .. done
Or
Just install any of Sense based ROM that available in Development thread to get your device up & running ... then you can start that option 1 & 2 again
But seeing you mentioned OS - 4.20.206.1 in red, you need to get option 1 done because the firmware installation was incomplete

Yes maybe I do but I am not sure why, maybe I need to look into seeing if my motherboard needs an update or if any windows updates are needed. I am on Windows 7 but like I said, it goes through the first 6 steps then as it boots the bootloader up again I hear the sound that my computer makes when plugging in a USB cable. However even if I leave it, it will not go past 1/7. But if I take the cable out it reconises I have done that so that makes me wonder if it is a USB problem?.
I dont understand option 2 because I dont know anything about all of this, I shouldnt have done it in the first place and I dont even remember why I did. I also must have deleted my backups as I cant find them. The part I was confused at, was which TWRP to get, then how to get it on my phone as my computer does not reconise my phone in the state it is in so I cant just go into the phone and place it. I also dont have an SD card with my phone either.
I will try updating my PC and try and get option 1 working and report back. Thank you for helping by the way, I really appreciate your patience with me.
Try also to install latest HTC USB driver.
Download HTC Sync Manager and install. Then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the HTC Driver installed.
http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
Is there a way to wipe this OS version and try this whole thing again? I have found my 2.0 USB ports, I have tried a different cable and it still gets hung up. Only now it doesnt move past the 0/6 whereas it used to go through all of them then into the 1/7 and get stuck on this part. I also can try a different PC if need be.

That is what I would suggest.
Also, does your PC have USB 3.0 on the ports? This has been known to cause problems with the RUU.
Ok so I have done the steps suggested now, when I uninstalled the HTC Sync Manager it let the process complete. It is now on a screen which says Android is upgrading, optimizing app 17-261. Is that my phone fixed? Or is there more I need to do now that it actually has turned on?.

Looks that way. It should boot into OS after its done optimizing all the apps, which is normally pretty slow (with that many, it will take 10 or more) since Android moved from Dalvik to ART.
Well I would like to say a massive thank you for the help I really appreciate the patience and help. So thank you again. I would have been lost without you's.

Hello,
In this thread you will find the firmware for your phone. It looks like you know the process of installing your firmware, so if I were you I'd down load the proper firmware and try the whole process all over again.

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).

Don't think 4.18.708.12 RUU exists.
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.

Android Revolution no Wifi

Hey guys,
today I flashed the android Revolution 4.4.4 KitKat version on my htc one m8.
It worked great but I can't turn on my wifi.
So I searched the internet for that issue and all I found is that i should update my firmware.
But I cant because my phone is s-on.
Can someone tell me which firmware I have? or how I can figure it out?
This is what the output looks like:

Why cannot ? You can do OTA updates as they will update your firmware.
Restore 1.54.206.10 nandroid and install 1.54.206.10 stock recovery.img then OTA updates.

First you said you can't because the device is S-On, now it's different reason.
Read the backup thread ... use correct TWRP version.
Or you can go the RUU way ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63024353&postcount=6
Option 1 is RUU method
Option 2 - just ignore, won't work for you

You need to delete your IMEI from the top post. This is private info, and should never be posted online.
