[Q] HTC One M8 Dual Sim - go back to stock - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Moin Guys
Firstyl: Sorry, i wasn't here or a Long time so im not up to date and like a dummy again
My Problem:
I have a HTC One M8 Dual Sim (unbranded). I Rooted it and flashed twrp on it. 2 days ago i was so dumb and tried a ota update. to dumb, that it won't work with twrp on it. So i flashed a stock recovery and tried to update. afterwards there was just the Htc logo for a Long time. so i flashed twrp back on it and restored my last backup. flashed stock recovery again and tried again. but now in the update Screen theres just a red ! (look at the Picture downside). i cant update it anymore.
My Question:
I googled and searched for the last 2 days, but i wasn't able to find a good solution. I want to go back to stock as far as possible. But i cant find all ressources i Need. i already took this recovery over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/htc-one-m8-dual-sim-european-version-t2816991
i need a Htc one m8 DUAL SIM stock recovery and OS. Can i go to androd 6.0 directly? with a ota for it?

Hi Guys
I made it. I just visited http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860 and downloaded nandroid Backup 6.16.401.101_ckpv5.zip and the Bootloader for it.
After a Backup from the running System i restored the nand from ckpv5 (Thank you at this part for your collection!!!!)
It runs. Didn't know that this will work. thought i have to do the ota that anything gets an update. but till now anything runs... :laugh:

The MM ROM runs is correct but your bootloader is most probably is on the lower version.
Put fastboot getvar all result again ... maybe I can help to update your firmware too if needed

Followed the (excellent) guide step by step but am stuck at step 12
When I reboot it says "your phone is encrypted"
Obviously I have no idea of the code. I have factory reset again but same issue. I am now at minus 3 decryption attempts (in other words I have tried 33 times)
Any idea how to disable encryption ?

OK, solved my own problem thanks to Gary Maskell : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQM6KIDr4-k
I needed to do a full format through TWRP at some point in the process. Since I was wiping everything anyway, I wasn't concerned about data loss. Should you need to do the same, please ensure that you have saved everything you need first
Big thanks to @ckpv5 and @avilon as well as to Gary

Not sure which firmware to flash
Hi,
Currently I have a At&T HTC One M8 with the following
Android Version 4.4.3
Rom Version 2.22.401.5
Software Number Android revolution HD 11.1
I wanted to flash the newest ARHD found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2694917
But I saw a few comments saying the WiFi doesn't work unless you have the newest firmware which is 3.28.401.6
So I went to the HTC One M8 firmware collection thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696282
My Phone is S-Off and the CID is the SuperCID 11111111, but when I ran the command "fastboot getvar all" the version-main: was blank as shown below

Thanks for for any help you can provide.
@mike1986. Need an help. I guess I have bricked my phone badly. My phone is S-on and 4.4.3 running on it as base and I had viper Rom on it. I first flashed the stock recovery and then relocked the boot loader and flashed the latest firmware 3.28.401.6.
Now the phone isn't booting. It has stuck on this screen and it has been 30 mins now and the phone still haven't booted.

What Rom are you trying to boot into? 4.4.3 or 4.4.4?
You should be able to boot to bootloader. Hold power then immediately volume up and downat same time. When phone powers off release the volume up button and it should boot to boot loader.

On the first page it says that flashing these firmware zips will flash a new recovery. Then you have to reflash a custom recovery afterwards. My computers down for the moment, so can I just rename the recovery image to 0P6BIMG and flash that way ? I'd really like to give sense another try...

Are you sure that's your cid? Should be CWS__001. They're 8 characters. Is that a typo in your post, or do you really have that cid in phone?

[Q] [HELP] Colored, Black & White dots on Display like an old TV

Hi
I have bought a second hand M8 couple of days ago and it was working fine with ARHD 8 installed
Today I have decided to try ARHD 34.6 & 41 and I faced a weird problem... the touch lags and I have to turn off the screen and back on to get it working again, and after a few minutes it shows Colored, Black & White dots like an old TV.... and this also happens in fastboot mode.
Is this something related to the screen? or maybe cause I have not updated my hboot?

Also enabling "Disable HW overlays" option in developer options fix the problem partially and make it happen a little only.

Your phone is in dot view mode. Change it in settings > personalize > dot view. The problem is that dot view works with magnetism. You could also pass a magnet over it to change it back (from what I've heard/read) but turning it off if you don't use the dot view case is probably your best option.

Thanks for your reply, but i don't think that my problem is with the dot view as it also happens in fastboot mode.
When it happens i need to turn of the screen for a couple of minutes then it will be fixed.
But the weird thing that it did not happened on ARHD 8, If you have a link for it so i can go back and test it, it would be great.
Thanks

Thanks for adding the screenshot. I would guess that it is a hardware issue. You will probably have to take it for repairs.
Have you dropped your phone recently?
You can also screw up your digitizer by messing with your DPI settings. Have you been doing that?
Another cause may be an incomplete firmware flash perhaps? This is just a shot in the dark. Have you flashed any firmware recently?

Get HTC m8 to lollipop!

Hello I just bought an m8 on aliexpress (took a while to get to me...) and when I first turned it on I noticed that it was already rooted (it is refurbished and they send it that way. It is new but rooted) and is on android 4.4.4, pretty old. There are a lot of improvements with the updates from htc but when I search for the option on the settings it is not there, it should, but it isn't there. So, I want to get it updated with the RUU which I think shoud be the safest option (I don't really care to lose root) but the thing is I don't really know what RUU I am supposed to get! The phone is supposed to be unlocked. This is the information I got with "getvar all"

I don't really know what was done to the phone, and actually my main reason to do this is to update it to lollipop and be able to keep upgrading. If someone can help me with that I would really apreciate it!
First of all it's a verizon phone, secondly it's S-Off and has SuperCID already, interesting.
luckily for you, you just have to download this https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934538714
if you want non verizon rom e.g no bloat and crap like that, I'll help you further, but first you must run the RUU.

more info here about the whole process, it's very simple.
Good luck, have fun.

Why do you hide an inportant info modelid ? You should remove serial & imei no as they are sensitive info.
Flashing firmware alone won't upgrade your OS.
Install 4.16.401.10 RUU to upgrade your OS (but this will wipe everything on internal storage) - get it here : http://androidruu.com/?developer=M8
Or you can use 4.16.401.10 nandroid backup to upgrade the OS (this will not wipe your internal storage) - get it from link in my signature
i didn't hide nothing

To run a RUU .. you need USB2.0 and latest HTC USB driver installed. If not sure, download HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
install it as it will install the latest HTC USB driver then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the driver.
Also check whether your Win 10 has these 2008 C++ installed. You may need them too.

Thank you for taking the time to reply. Turned out I was installing the wrong update. I am using Verizon version in Pakistan and it can only be updated in the US by the carrier. Would appreciate if anybody helps regarding this.

It works fine... I just got some issues with the radio ... I wonder if it because I changed my SIM card then it could come from the provider

Black screen after HTC startup logo please help! [bricked probably]

Hi everyone,
So my HTC one M8 was rooted with TWRP recovery. It was running Android 5.0 I think. I got an OTA update but I was not able to update it because of TWRP. I wanted the update so bad and I searched on Youtube to know how to update the software. I found a video and I followed these steps.
1 - Replace custom recovery with stock recovery
2 - Process OTA Update
3 - Replace stock recovery with custom recovery
However, when I replaced the custom recovery with the stock recovery, I downloaded the OTA update and updated it. But after the update completed, the device never booted up. It shows the HTC logo then it goes black! (The screen is still on, but black!) Have I bricked the phone? How Can I fix it please!
PS. Here is the video I watched www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPPT5J8xG6w

That video is nonsense. There is a blatant mistake at 6.44 and the knob doesn't see it. You need to go back to stock first, then take the OTA.

Go into fastboot and open a command prompt. Type in fastboot getvar all and post the output here. Remove your serial and IMEI numbers before you post. Hopefully we can get you back to stock.

Luckily you have a WWE device. Download this RUU and run it from Windows. Make sure you have HTC drivers installed. The easy way to do that is to install HTC Sync and then uninstall it. The HTC drivers will be left behind. That will take you to stock 4.16.401.10. You will then receive the update to 13.

No, the bootloader needs to be relocked/locked for the RUU.exe to work. It should work from fastboot mode. If it doesn't, I'll be on again tomorrow.

Please help me now, I want to update with oreo and when I tempered with device, it was having Kit Kat 4.4.4, It is perfectly unlocked, having root access. TWRP version 3.0 is also installed on it, suggest me the best soft application to get my phone back in working position.

These are the screenshots i obtained, Please suggest me the procedure that must be easy to follow, considering my limitations of IT advanced knowledge.
Thank You. I am now waiting for you response.
You need these steps :
1. Change your current modelid: 0P6B6**** to 0P6B10000
How-to read this - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708581
If you can boot to recovery (not sure twrp 3.0 can work on KitKat, if can't install twrp 2.8.3.0)
Then run command adb shell
Skip command su
Then the rest for Europe MID codes
2. Install RUU - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
There is a shortcut way with flashing firmware only but seems you're new to this, installing RUU is a better option
3. Install twrp 3.2.1.0
4. Install your Oreo ROM

Your getvar show you successfully changed MID as said in step 1.
But you skip step 2 and install lineage 14.1, this won't work & explained the bootloop.
Do step 2 then post fastboot getvar all. Once ok then only do step 3 & later step 4 install lineage OS

thanks My phone is working with Marshmallow. I want to move on oreo.......How I can move on to it, and please suggest me a best rom thanks.
Follow step 3 then step 4 as you completed step 1 & 2.
I can't suggest a best rom as I usually on my own customized ROM, but now I'm on Oreo LOS 15.1 and there's only one Oreo LOS 15.1 that openly public release for now.

ckpv5 graciously gave you all the steps required to update the firmware and install an Oreo ROM. Why are you skipping steps? Just follow them all. He wouldn't post it, if you didn't need to do it. Why would you only follow half the advice given to you, and expect it to work properly?
