This will update your device to the latest KitKat 3.33.401.10
1. put your device in bootloader/fastboot mode and connect to PC

3.33.401.6 ??

Thank you so much for that link! Every other recovery I found had a wrong build fingerprint.

@ckpv5
@ckpv5
First thanks for the information.
Second:
I have
version-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON
version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000
version-baseband: 1.22.30306251.27G
OS: 3.33.401.6
CID: HTC__J15
MID: 0P6B64000
Device Name: M8_DUGL
After I formatted everything (without having a backup), i managed to find a STOCK-ROM (Rooted) and install it "m8dugl_3.33.401.6_stock_rooted_deodexed_cptb.zip".
But Now I have the OTA update:
OTA_M8_DUGL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_4.30.401.15-3.33.401.6_release_428495gkzen6r41ji8to70
But cant install it since I already have TWRP Recovery, and also don't have a backup from the STOCK-Recovery.
I tried your link
http://sourceforge.net/projects/htconem8/files/Recovery/3.33.401.6_ds_recovery.img/download
And after I flashed it it showed me the Broken Exclamation-Red-Mark.

Deleted,

@ckpv5 Appreciate your reply, but this RUU is for One M8, not for Dual SIM.
Thanks
Nader

1. Are you saying after you install the stock recovery and you tried to enter recovery and you got the exclamation red mark ? That's the stock recovery successfully installed.
2. After install stock recovery, reboot device, check OTA, download and let the system install. If it fails and you get the exclamation mark .. press and hold volume up button and tap/press once the power button. The recovery will show what error that you have. Usually the stock ROM that you have is not fully stock and some files are missing/modified then the OTA fails.
So .. which exclamation mark that you're talking about.

Any ideas??

You need to manually flash the boot.img file in the custom ROM via ADB while in Fastboot mode, unless you have S-Off. Oh the quirks of HTC phones...

Wrong info. Even on s-on M8 phones the boot.img is flashed automatically so that's not it.
@ O.P
Sure you full wiped before installing the new rom. Can you give an example of what roms you tried ?
And DELETE your imei and serial !

I dont get it. This wasnt happening before the upgrade to lolipop. It also happens with multirom. Maybe its time to S-off.

Hmmm, well i can suggest to make a full wipe manually in TWRP and don't select that in the rom's aroma installer. Then continue to install the full basic rom. Don't delete or modify apps in the installer.

Just flash the correct Lollipop firmware and you're good to go.

This only applies to older HTC devices, and has never been true for the M8 (as another already stated). I don't understand why folks keep propagating this incorrect info.

What version number of TWRP exactly? I ask, since once in a while, folks say they are on the "latest" but then it turns out they are looking in the wrong place, and its actually an older version (and the cause of their issue).
What ROMs specifically did you try?

I did a full wipe(system,data etc except sdcard) in TWRP 2.8.7, and then the install of ViperOne went good.

First ... remove the serial no. & imei no in your post as they are sensitive info.
You have 3 options :
1. Restore 4.16.401.10 TWRP backup - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60147089&postcount=5104
It read as WWE 4.20.401.10 TWRP Backup but that's typo error .. it should read as WWE 4.19.401.10 TWRP Backup
or
2. Relock your bootloader and install 4.16.401.10 RUU.exe - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56140330&postcount=1
(make backup of your internal storage important data as this will wipe everything)
or
3. Relock your bootloader and fastboot flash the 4.16.401.10 RUU.zip - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735235
(make backup of your internal storage important data as this will wipe everything and also note you need htc_fastboot instead of normal fastboot)

thanks for your fast response.
adb restore <file name> ?
4.16.401.10_HTC__001_TWRP.7z
It is 7zip . This should be repacked as a normal ZIP ?

Read the thread linked in my signature on how to restore a TWRP backup.
You need to extract it with 7-zip and put those files in your backup folder not to ADB it nor fastboot it.

hi guys
I have similar problem.
i flashed stock recovery and ran OTA update 4.16.401.13 (i think) on modified, unlocked, rooted, S-ON HTC One M8 in South Africa, and now stuck on boot logo or black screen.

software number was 4.16.401.10 before OTA update.
can i also use the files above to try to fix the phone?

Thank you. restore is in progress.
After restore i will flash back stock recovery and then relock the bootloader.
If i do that, my top line in bootloader will disappear ? right now is : "Software status: Modified "

No need to relock bootloader.
Only when running RUU.exe or RUU.zip you need to relock bootloader when S-On.
Using a backup no need to relock bootloader. Just flash stock recovery then do OTA.
If that backup fails (as I'm not sure whether that's fully stock or not), I put up my own stock backup in my thread .. you can try that later if current one fails.

Restore successfully completed. Now, in order not to have problems with latest OTA , i have to restore stock recovery, right ?

Yes. OTA downloaded and I tried twice to install, but all it did was restart phone into bootloader.
After flashing stock recovery, I rebooted phone, ran OTA and update started.
After update completed, phone rebooted to white start screen with HTC logo and froze there.
I have read that this is probably because I ran OTA on rooted device.
So now i am stuck with no OS and hope these files will help.
Thanks ckpv5 for help and link.

stock nandroid restore worked. got my phone back
flashed stock recovery and running OTA again now. fingers crossed.
but whatever happens, just wanna say thanks again guys. much appreciated.

Boot the custom recovery and make a pure stock backup. Restore that one if you need to ota update again

The best solution for me if I ever have this problem .. I will format data (not wipe data) in TWRP before I restore the backup (of course need to backup internal storage data somewhere else first)

Done . Now i have free space. many thanks !!

Updating from an old KitKat based ROM? Do I need to be on stock?

I have a HTC One M8, that is running a very old version of Android Revolution (7.0, which is KitKat based). I would like to update to the newest version, but I'm getting conflicting answers on how should I do this. Some threads say I have to revert to stock, and some say I have to install the official OTA updates first, otherwise I might end up with non-working wifi, and some say I should use the RUU from the official HTC site.
Details of the phone:
S-ON
Rooted
Has TWRP installed (some old TWRP, can't update it because newest version get's stuck at entering recovery, I read that it is related to me having an old HBOOT version)
Current ROM is android revolution 7.0
CID is TMOB-101
Bootloader unlocked
I heard the easiest way to do it is to use the official HTC site to download a RUU, and use that, but in order to use that, you must relock your bootloader, but that can potentially brick the device if it was tampered with?
Can anyone clarify what should I do, and what should I look out for, to make sure I don't brick (like relocking the bootloader)?

You will need to restore a nandroid backup then do OTA to the latest.
Post fastboot getvar all result without serial & imei no.
Someone will be able to guide you.
Or I check tomorrow as I already in bed now.
Note : unlocking/relocking bootloader will not brick a device.

I found a nandroid backup link here on XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376) but the link for my CID is broken. Any other place I could get it? Googling just turns up more dead links.

That if still available, not for your hboot version.
What you need to do is to restore 1.57.111.2 and its stock recovery then do multiple OTA up to the latest 4.19.111.3 or maybe 4.19.111.4

Thanks a lot, going to try it soon. Out of curiosity, how did you figure out I need 1.57.111.2? I don't see that number mentioned anywhere in my getvars output.

Sorry I'm thick, I still don't see the relationship between the numbers :/
One more question, I have read that I need to relock the bootloader, for the OTA updates to work, is that correct?

Where do you read you need to relock bootloader ? I asked you to read my thread post #1, there is a note on bootloader matter. No need to relock bootloader.
How do I see the relationship ? That come from observation and experience ... the outcome that I learnt from my own thread ....
See all those software version no. in post #2 in my thread
hboot 3.16.0000 - software version no. is 1.xx.xxx.x
hboot 3.18.0000 - software version no. is 2.xx.xxx.x
so yours is hboot 3.16.0000 and CID T-MOB101 so the software version no. is 1.xx.111.x
and the precise version no. is 1.57.111.2
That's all that I can help ... as this way off-topic from your original problem.

Okay, I managed to install all the OTA updates, but I'm only on android version 5.0.1, and now it says there are no more updates for my system.
I thought the OTA updates were supposed to update me to 6.x?

The update to Android 6.0 not yet available for your device variant/region.
So far only 4 device variants received the update :
Developer Edition
Taiwan
Bell Canada
Rogers Canada
If you want to taste Marshmallow ROM, you install TWRP 2.8.7.0 and install any customized Marshmallow ROM that you like. Just make a nandroid backup of your current stock non-rooted ROM before you install other ROM. You need this backup for next OTA.

I see.
Are there no caveats, like my wifi not functioning if I install a marshmallow rom now, without waiting for the OTA update first?

I would not suggest that if there are problems in doing so.

Htc M8, confused, want to update to marshamallow

Hello I bought M8 from somebody, it is unbranded European model i think, phone is rooted and carrier unlocked as im using it in asia. it comes with android 5.0.1, I want to update to stock marshmallow for this variant. I have been trying to do on my own but it only confused me more. Im not sure if i have custom rom or if because im rooted, because At the time moment it doesnt offer any software updates from the main menu.
Some info abt phone.
Its model id at back is Op6B100,
Android version 5.0.1
Software number 4.18.708.12
Build number 4.18.708.12
In the bootloader menu I have
Software status: Official
Locked ( i think it means bootloader)
M8_UL PVt SHIp s-off
Cid-11111111 (but if I check with cidgetter it says t-mob010). So it confused me because according to its model its supposed to be european model but in fastboot it says 11111111.
HBoot 3.19.0.0000
I dont have twrp installed.
So please tell me where to go from here. I want to either from here go direct to stock android 6 for this M8 variant or go back to stock condition and get ota update. I prefer to lose the root. So please tell me which stock firmware I need, and do I need to change cid, remove root, before that? Also i would like not to brick my device in process.. Thanks.
Also my device is carrier unlocked at the moment so Im hoping this shouldn't affect that. Thanks

.??

I would like to install htc marshmallow update, kindly tell me how I can do that.

First you need to change MID to EU
Then install EU marshmallow RUU
Follow this guide - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70575580&postcount=12

Do i need twrp to change MId? And do I need to unlock bootloader before flashing RUU.

Yes as said in the guide unless you're running a rooted ROM.

ok thanks , I keep getting this error in the adb fastboot when flashing ruu zip . target reported max download size ( shows some big number bytes) .

Read the guide again .. you need htc_fastboot not normal fastboot.
At the end of the guide it shows 2 other methods on how to install RUU zip. Pick one thar you think it is easier for you.

Please don't post the same question to multiple threads. It clutters up the forum, and makes it confusing for those trying to help you. Your post is also not related to the topic of this particular thread.
