[Q] Which version of everything should I use?

Hi,
I have a HTC One M7 WLV (the 4g from Verizon). Recently it had some problems and I had to factory reset it, however I opted for changing to another ROM. It did not go well, and I blame it on not knowing the correct version of recovery/kernel/rom to use on it. So I figured I could ask you guys.
Here is the "getvar all" for my phone:
Code:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.54.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 4T.21.3218.21
(bootloader) version-cpld: None

(bootloader) version-misc: PVT SHIP S-OFF
(bootloader) product: m7_wlv
(bootloader) platform: HBOOT-8064
(bootloader) modelid: PN0731000
(bootloader) cidnum: 11111111
(bootloader) battery-status: good
(bootloader) battery-voltage: 3888mV
(bootloader) partition-layout: Generic
(bootloader) security: off
(bootloader) build-mode: SHIP
(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT
(bootloader) commitno-bootloader: dirty-0e82187e
(bootloader) hbootpreupdate: 11
(bootloader) gencheckpt: 0
all: Done!
finished. total time: 0.062s
And my current recovery is the latest ClockworkMod i could find (6.0.4.8).
Recon that should be enough to figure the correct version.
I am looking to install an as-vanilla-as-possible ROM of Google Play Edition for the latest version of it.
Could someone post the links for downloads of all the files I might need (including bootloader, recovery and kernel if needed)?
Thanks a bunch!

I'm relatively new to this phone, so it's fresh in my memory... I can see you've got s-off, so I assume your bootloader is also unlocked? Assuming it is, I would say to first flash the latest of the MDMower build of TWRP found here. I too was in the habit of using CWM, but I found the version you reference is way too slow doing wipes, backups, etc. (and therefore suspicious). Also, most current ROM threads and devs seem to be recommending TWRP for this device. Now that I've used TWRP for a while, I'm happy with it.
Next I would suggest following the advice in the OP of this to thread install the NuSenseSIX ROM. In particular, update your firmware according to this post. Once you've got TWRP, the latest firmware and NuSenseSIX running as a stock-like point of reference, you can backup, try other ROMs, etc. The same excellent developer, santod040, who packaged the latest firmware and NuSenseSIX ROM has also released a couple of nice GPE ROMs (totally stock and "plus").
FWIW, I'm currently running cm11 for the m7vzw with TinyKernel in order to get the "logo2menu" feature.
Finally, prior to getting my phone unlocked and up-to-date, I also found the links in this post quite helpful.

You are on an old firmware (hboot is 1.54 when we have hboot 1.57) and your radio is odd, not a Verizon radio. Use the link above to flash the latest Verizon radio and firmware. There is a thread to put your CID back to stock (your getvar all shows all ones and it should be VZW__001 and the Fastboot command is "fastboot oem writecid VZW__001" iirc) as for GPE, there is a couple that are pure port from the m7 GPE in the development section. Almost all devs recommend TWRP for stock (sense) and GPE roms.

Update your firmware like they said, then I recommend this for GPE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2531235

I have had nothing but issues with cwm over the years on different phones. Twrp is the most reliable I have seen. So once you update everything to the latest you should be able to enjoy all the ROMs are have. Be it santod, hawk, and so on

Hi guys, thanks for the answers!
For the record, the versions indicated by bmeek all worked. Throughout the process I also found I had a corrupted /data partition and managed to fix it with this tutorial:

HTC One M8 - stuck on HTC logo with open lock sign after firmware update. Bricked?

Hello,
I just tried to update the firmware on my Vodafone branded HTC One. It was running a fairly ancient version of the ViperOne Rom (Version 1.8.0), so I wanted to update this.
On the website of the rom it says that you have to update the firmware first, so I decided to do that. I gave myself SuperCID without problems, because I had accquired S-OFF, when I first unlocked the bootloader.
Here is the information from my bootloader before flashing the firmware:
C:\Users\****>fastboot getvar all

I decided to flash the newest firmware. I found the download for the different firmwares at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2696282 and decided to flash version 3.11.1700.5
Then I went into the RUU Mode and flashed the firmware with fastboot (like in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/vomerguides-m8-bootldr-unlock-s-off-t2800727 ).
I flashed the firmware two times, as advised and there were no error messages (except for the normal one at first flash).
Now I'm stuck at the HTC logo screen with the "powered by Android" at the bottom.
Also under the android logo, there is a black square with an open lock symbol in it.
I managed to get into the bootloader by pressing Power + Up (hardreset) and then Power + Down (bootloader entry) quickly.
The main thing I can notice here is that the background is black (instead of the white background I'm used to, but I don't know why that is and if it does matter).
When I want to go to recovery from fastboot however, I get an Android with a warning sign.
How do I continue from now on to get my phone working again? If I just boot it up it is stuck forever at the HTC + Android + lock loading screen. Thank you for your help, it is really appreciated as I'm quite scared that I just bricked my phone (although I don't really know why).

What made you decide to flash GPE firmware?
Flash back WWE Firmware(any 3.28.401 would have been fine) or you could also go with the 4.x from Developer Edition. Don't know why you decided to go with 3.11.1700.5 which is Google's Play edition

Oh, i had no idea that I was using GPE firmware. Can I just use the 3.28.401.9 found in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376 )?
Considering that I already flashed a TWRP recovery (which failed to install the ViperOne rom, obviously, see http://pastebin.com/Xs9yy0S0 )?

[Q] HTC M8 (Three UK) - Return to stock help please

Hello,
Apologies in advance for what is probably a dumb (and often repeated) question, but I'm hoping someone can sanity-check this before I attempt it as I am a bit confused around the version numbers mainly.
I have previously had Samsung Galaxy devices (S2, S3 and S4), all of which I regularly flashed with custom ROMs, but while I am delighted to be a HTC owner, the flashing process is very different.
I have a HTC One M8 from Three (UK) and am S-On; I followed the sticky guides originally to unlock the bootloader (using the code from HTC) and then installed the Venom ViperOneM8 (currently 3.2.1).
I am trying to return to stock so that I can update to the latest VenomRom based on Lollipop; I know there are inevitably a lot of questions about this so I appreciate anyone's assistance.
The output from my FastBoot getvar all is as follows:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.21.21331147A1.19_2G
(bootloader) version-cpld: None
(bootloader) version-microp: None
(bootloader) version-main: 3.32.771.3
(bootloader) version-misc: PVT SHIP S-ON
(bootloader) serialno: REMOVED
(bootloader) imei: REMOVED
(bootloader) imei2: Not Support
(bootloader) meid: 00000000000000
(bootloader) product: m8_ul
(bootloader) platform: hTCBmsm8974
(bootloader) modelid: 0P6B10000
(bootloader) cidnum: H3G__001
(bootloader) battery-status: good
(bootloader) battery-voltage: 0mV
(bootloader) partition-layout: Generic
(bootloader) security: on
(bootloader) build-mode: SHIP
(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT
(bootloader) commitno-bootloader: a3d0cb0d
(bootloader) hbootpreupdate: 11
(bootloader) gencheckpt: 0
I understand that I need to return to stock, and with S-On the way this is achieved is via a restore of a Nandroid backup and recovery, followed by multiple OTA updates to bring me up to the latest version.
My issue is that there are only 2 available links for firmwares with the "H3G" CID (one for PhilzTouch and another for TWRP; I have TWRP), in ExocetDJ and Soldier9312's thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376) and these are completely different that my currently installed version (i.e. I have 3.32.771.3 installed, and the TWRP version is 1.12.771.17).
Is this the correct firmware backup I need (albeit a much older version - 4.4.2 rather than my current 4.4.4)? I have also picked up the corresponding recovery file (stock+recovery+1.12.771+recovery.img) from the same thread, so assuming the firmware is correct then is this the right one too?
If these are correct, I then need to follow the guide to restore the Nandroid backup (copy the extracted files to the correct location on the ext-SD card, flash the boot.img from that backup, full wipe from recovery, restore Nandroid backup), and that should leave me with a stock ROM.
Can someone please confirm the above?
Many thanks in advance

Don't go with 1.x version, you'll get stuck with no wifi. You only can go one version lower 2.x or same version 3.x

Just to clarify, I assume that the version 3.32.771.10 in your post newer than my current version 3.32.771.3?
Therefore I would be better off using the 2.22.771.5 one.

You should be fine using 3.32.771.10 if available (plus I think the Lollipop OTA requires this version to update)

ok, thanks chap; i'll give it a shot.
I can always restore a Nandroid of my current firmware (taken before I start) if it goes tits-up

Thanks for the help guys.
I ran through the process last night with relatively little drama and I'm now running Lollipop and Venom 4.0.0.
Much appreciated as always.

WiFi issues since version 5.0

Hello,
Two months ago I upgraded my android version to 5.0.1, since then wifi problems start to appear.
There are two problems:
1) When the phone is sleeping, the wifi disconnect. once I wake the phone, even if it still locked, the wifi turns on again after 1 second. (I checked the advanced settings and "keep wifi on during sleep" is on "always").
2) Once I go from the wifi zone and come back after a while, I can't connect to the wifi. it just keep scanning, and when I tap on it to see available networks it just shows white page (switching wifi on and off doing nothing).
This problem can be solve by turning airplane mode on and off, but it only helps for one time - once I go away and come back to the same wifi zone I need to do it again.
*I tried factory reset, doesn't help.
*I flashed another rom, from HD revolution to ViperOne, and now my android version is 5.0.2, doesn't help.
*This problem happens in every router, not only in a specific one.
Maybe going back to the stock recovery will solve the problem, but I don't think so.
Thanks in advance

Your android version is software version but not firmware version. You can't update your firmware by flashing ROMs.
Post your fastboot getvar all (delete serial & imei no.) then maybe that getvar info will point to your actual problem.

Your radio low version suggest that you have a 3.x firmware installed, not 4.x which is required for 5.0.x android version.
Here is the latest RUU for your device version : http://dl3.htc.com.s3.amazonaws.com...G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_446501_signed_2.exe
Relock bootloader & run RUU.
Later you can re-unlock bootloader and install any custom ROM that you like

I'm pretty new to all this, so I'll be glad to have some explanation.
What's "ruu"? And how do I relock the bootloader?
What's the difference between Android version and firmware version?
I need to wipe something before I run ruu?
You think this is what cause the Wi-Fi problems?
Thank you!

Here is a good read for you : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52484527
relock bootloader - run command fastboot oem lock (after you put your device in bootloader/fastboot mode and connect to PC)
No need to wipe anything - the RUU will remove all and replace everything with the latest images - data, system, firmware and ROM
Your wifi problem as mentioned earlier because your firmware is old and has old radio baseband and not meet the minimum requirement for Android 5.0..x
An important note : after you done the RUU thing, to install custom ROM or to root, you need to install latest TWRP 2.8.7.0
Don't use the old TWRP recovery that you have .. as seen in your getvar all, there are a few missing info because of outdated TWRP

It's harder to help when you ask all non-related stuff. I don't mention anything about S-Off because it is not necessary.
I know your device is S-on, that's why I said relock bootloader
Only two steps :
relock bootloader - run comman fastboot oem lock
run RUU - right click the RUU and select run as administrator on windows context menu
What you need :
USB2.0 on PC
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 driver then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the drivers.

RELOCKED is fine to run the RUU (as is LOCKED). UNLOCKED is the only status for that particular flag that prevents RUU.
You don't need s-off to RUU.

I relock the bootloader and run the ruu and now the wifi is working fine!
Thank you very much for your help!

First - edit your post to remove serial & imei no.
Your baseband version suggest that you have a 3.xx.xxxx.x firmware installed.
You need a 4.xx.xxx.x firmware to have a working wifi when install a lollipop ROM.
What device that you have ? 0P6B16000 can be a Canadian device and some South American device. Update your firmware to the one meant for your device version.

My is Canadian device. I couldn't find a ruu version of device

There is no RUU available for Canadian device. At least tell what it is .. Rogers, Bell, Telus or ??? You can try to find a nandroid backup and stock recovery, restore then do OTA to update to the latest.
Or .. as your device is S-Off, you can change it WWE device i.e change MID to EU MID then install EU RUU.

Rogers

As I mentioned above try find a backup for device.
You need 3.34.631.4 and its stock recovery.
I already switch off my PC and in bed. Not sure whether I have those files in my collection.
I'll check tomorrow when I have time but try to find it first. Should be available.

can you post the files please ?thank you

finding the right RUU

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

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 deínstall 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)
and restore 6.14.707.1 nandroid backup

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) -

Or if you prefer the exe method .. you can follow this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67314040&postcount=1749

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
