One x 2.18.751

Does any one know How I can install JB? I have unlocked and installed custom room. I relocked the phone but can't return to stock as there is no ruu available for my software version. I have the ota update on my phone but when I try to install it doesn't work.
Ideas?

you have to wait for the RUU or a Nandroid Backup of that stock rom

There is a thread in here (it's quite new) somewhere on backups for different versions, which you might be able to install.
There is another thread on using an older RUU, extracting the ROM and boot.img, and installing them (I think).
Ultimately you want to get to 2.17, 2.18 was unofficial, so I suspect the OTA will only apply to 2.17.
Edit: I might be making that up, maybe 2.18 was official.

I think The OTA is official, its from HTC and i downloaded to my phone ota. It was my phone that adviused me on the update The version is 3.18.751 on the update. Every time i try to load the update it goes to the fastboot screen and wont let me install the update.

2.18.751 is official, release not long after 2.17 OTA. It contained small fixes for taiwan chungwa's One X. If I am not wrong, it doesn't update hboot and recovery version, affecting ROM only.
For OP:-
Best options was using your nandroid backup.
OR
Grab the firmware.zip inside 3.14.751.20's OTA, then flash it like how they did to .401.
OR
There are a custom RUU that can help you convert your phone to taiwan unbranded CID (709) then receive 3.14.709.20 OTA. Your CID will change to HTC_621. You will need unlock bootloader for this method.

Ok i have successfully upgraded. Mudito i used the tool here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604439
I flashed the recovery image off the OTA update. Im now in 3.14.751.20
I will say i made an error and luckily i didn't brick my phone.
Bacislly i followed the steps from the link above on the video placeing the the official images in the relevant folders instead of custom ones.
I didn't place the correct files on my SD so after doing perm root the phone was locked on a screen(never seen it before so dont know what to call it). Then i realised i hadn't put the files on sd luckily when i reset the phone it turned on and then i downloaded the update and it installed perefctly.
but the used the official recovery/ boot images etc.
android 4.1.1
sense 4+
baseband 5.1204.162.29

Hey, I got the EXACTLY same problem as you do - although I'm not using a custom rom, just messed abit with mine too much (CWM + root, something messed up so I can't update even going back to stock recovery), so can you please explain step by step what I should do to get the JB update?
Thanks alot!
(and will this make my phone able to get the next update if one will get out too? I mean - is it stock rom?)

Ok do you have 2.18.751? If you have this version I can give you the update as I have it on pc. Its 3.14.751.20. I just have to work out how to upoad it to xda site.
I woulnt follow my steps exactly as I'm lucky I didn't damage my phone.
The up date has firmware.zip that contains boot.img, recovery.img etc. Follow the instructions Hansen toolkit video on the link. I flashed the HTC recovery and boot image. Then went to perm root my phone. It was on a screen I don't know what to call and was stuck there as I didn't flash other recoveries like cwm etc.. I then rebooted by power&vol and downoaded update again and it instaled. Note my phone automatically advised of the OTA if yours hasn't then there is something different.
I would highly recommend NOT to following my steps. Follow tookit video. That should get you there.
It is the official update from HTC so it should allow future updates.

Thanks guys.
Finally I went the other way... I was trying so hard to do this that soon I realized that I will be getting a custom ROM in a matter of time. But I usually use Stocks Modded ROMs so I did this.
Relocked the boot loader.
Flashed Firmware.zip from the OTA 3.14.751 from OTA.ZIP file. My word here is USE THE FIRMWARE FOR YOUR CID!!! ONLY THAT ONE
Flashed CWM 5.8.4.0 Recovery (i had an old one).
Downloaded Custom ROM (tried 2 in two days so far. same procedure, ARHD and InserCoin)
Flashed Boot.img from that custom ROM.
Went to Recovery, install ZIP from SDcard. and Flashed the custom ROM.
Preety Neat I must say.
Enjoying performance from JB... Photo CAM is insanely FAST
Thanks to Everyone. XDA Is a great place to find info but it could be messy some times.

Shelby5, Can you please send me the link to the video? and yes, that IS my version, and I've been notified of the update - but because of my modded rom couldn't install it.
JB requires a newer hboot, no? mine currently has 1.12, and I've understood that it requires 1.33, so does it cover that too?
Thanks!
about the ZIP file - is it the one that your device downloaded OTA to install? cause if so - I got that one. and if not - I'd appreciate if you can upload it even to dropbox or something for the day and tomorrow so I can download it

Noodlez I can do it for you later Today. Ill msg you later with details.

Official firmware package contains the stock boot.img and is intended to be flashed while running a 1.57.531.xx ROM or after flashing a 1.57.531.xx ROM. ROMs built off of a different base may fail to boot after flashing the stock 1.57 boot.img. The official package also includes the stock recovery.img, which has a two step process to enter. First, boot into bootloader and select recovery. Then, at the black screen with the red triangle, press power+UP to enter the essentially useless stock recovery. If you want use a custom recovery, like TWRP, you will need to fastboot flash it again after flashing firmware.

I could be wrong though

No, sorry when you converted to GPE you changed your partition sizes. To change back we need an RUU or the dzdata.imgs, which are not currently available. Also if/when we have those, you would still need to flash stock rom afterwards because this is merely firmware. There is no OS included whatsoever.

I can't remember if this happened before I flashed the custom firmware or not but after flashing the custom firmware when I'm booting into recovery I have the red development text warning again. It's only when I bit into recovery though. Can someone respond and let me know if they have it? I wonder if flashing the file to remove the Red text as I did before is safe? Thanks
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2

P.S.A.​
If anyone would like to install this firmware without hooking up to a PC, all it requires an SD card.
Simply:
rename the firmware zip "0P6BIMG.zip"
copy to the root of your SD card
reboot into bootloader (power+vol dwn)
when prompted to confirm the flash select Yes using volume key to confirm the update.

Yup, sure does. The custome zip will work with ANY rom. That is the whole reason the custom zip is provided, it's why I included it.
The custom zip allows you to KEEP your custom rom AND custom recovery installed and functioning, the way you want it.
The official zip includes the stock recovery AND 1.57 boot.img, so it should only be used in association with a 1.57 rom. It will help return you to 100% stock.
There is a zip for both situations.

Firmware zips are included as part of each build HTC releases. They contain important device controlling data and code for radio, bootloader, recovery, boot.img etc. As such this thread provides the most recently released firmware zips for the T-Mobile variant of the HTC M8. It is geared towards users that are not on official software paths, such as users of custom ROMs like ViperOneM8, InsertCoin, Renovate, etc.

I'm stuck at the "4. Boot into hboot and READ, INTERNALIZE, & then EXECUTE and let it update its firmware."
How do I read, internalize, and execute it? The directions for this are very scattered.

Im assuming your phone is S-OFF?
Before this, was your phone updated by any OTA's? This is just to confirm that you were on 4.4.2.

I am S-off, but yes, firewater told me I took an OTA (must have happened before I bought the phone) so I had to use Sunshine or whatever, now I'm S-off and don't know what to do next.

When you reboot the phone to bootloader you'll notice a couple of options that you can select one of them is "HBOOT" I think it's written in blue.
Select it with the volume up or down key and press power to go in, it'll then show a scrolling of I think it's green text where it's looking for files on sd card. It should pick up your renamed firmware file and give you option to update with it.

Hmm, I moved the renamed file (renamed to 0P6BIMG.zip) to external SD through TWRP, but when I go into Hboot, it doesn't do anything. I feel like it's something obvious.

Maybe try and move it to internal storage. Check that it's named correctly, a ZERO (0) and not a O <Capital o... Make sure it's .zip and not .zip.zip else...
Do it manually with mike1986.'s flash guide.

Can I get a link to that?

Well that's logical isn't it? AT&T doesn't use x.xx.401.x. Even if you do flash the latest 3.x firmware on your device you'll probably have problems seeing as the radio's are different.
Rather go with the Developer Edition 3.x firmware. AT&T and Dev Edition share same radio, MID etc. It's the 3.28.1540.5 firmware you can find it in the OTA zip collection.
OTA ZIP COLLECTION
Just download the OTA and extract the firmware.zip file from the OTA.zip. If you flash the 3.28.401.x you might have issues with LTE etc

2.22.1540.4 -> 3.28.1540.5 thanks
^This one? This one will work with my ATT phone the right way? I'm sorry I'm such a noob to all of this. I'm used to flashing a rom and continuing about my normal life.

Thank you for your help, I'll follow up in about 10 minutes

Yeap that zip should work, @BerndM14 beat me to it. I really need to bookmark all these threads.
Just make sure you flash it twice without leaving the RUU flash screen.

Yes, very important. I left it out, going on the assumption that he'll follow mike's guide where it says to flash twice...

ruu question

Hi,
Have just got a 2nd hand m9 that I'd like to update to Nougat. It is rooted but not s-off and on lollipop custom rom. Am I right in thinking that I need to install the latest ruu for lollipop, then the same for marshmallow and then lastly for nougat before I can install a nougat ROM?
Thanks

Yes. Updates are incremental. You need to have a stock phone before you can flash ruu's. You need s-off otherwise, which is well worth the money!.

RUUs are not incremental. However, HTC changed the encryption key between firmware 3.x and 4.x. You therefore need to flash a 3.x ruu and to install the non-encrypted OTA afterwards. Be aware that you can't change your sku without S-OFF. That means if you don't own the developer edition (sku 617) you won't be able to update to android 7 since that version is the only one that received the update, yet.

That's not correct. A RUU doesn't care whether your phone is stock or that. It reflashes every partition of your phone as long as your download mode is working.

So am I right in assuming that I can't flash any RUU without s-off? Also, how would I know if it's a dev edition or not? Thanks

The dev edition is indicated by the sku (617) which is part of the firmware version: x.xx.SKU.xx
Please read the HTC One (M9) Readme Thread. All needed information should be located on its first page.

Hi Flippy,
Thank for the links. As I mistakenly tried to flash a custom nougat rom on my lollipop device, I'm trying to get it back up and running. I still have access to TWRP and was looking at the back ups that you provided. However, I'm uncertain which to flash as I don't know which is the SKU of my mob. How can this be found out?

The readme thread should contain steps (in the RUU section and the twrp section II) for finding out the current firmware version of your phone. Did I forget to add them to the flashing instructions?

No,,that's there but I already know what f/w I'm on - 1.32.401.15. Tried flashing a custom ROM of that version but it's sticking at the HTC logo. I would have thought reflashing a ROM of the same version would have worked but did I bork something when flashing a N rom?
I'm uncertain how to find the SKU but guessing it's 61 (EE UK). Is that going to be my only way forward - ruu or twrp backup?
Thanks for the help!

Re-read what I wrote before and pay attention to the part I highlighted in my quotes.
Btw, since many users make the same mistake I need to ask the following: You checked your firmware in download mode and not in settings>about, correct? The latter only shows you the base of the (custom) rom you're currently using and not your actual firmware.
You're firmware is quite old. I'd suggest you to flash the 3.35.401.12 RUU and to start from scratch. In general, you can't use roms that are based on a different firmware version than your current one. (Sidenote: I'm only talking about the major version number here - in this case the 3.)
There is no Nougat for SKU 401 at the moment but it should get released in the near future.

BTW, I had the issue you described here:-
Copy the file to the root directory of a SD card which is formatted to fat32. (If you're on firmware version 3.x you can use an exfat formatted SD card, too. It would be nice if a firmware 4.x user could confirm whether the exception apllies to the new version, as well.) Sometimes this is only possible if the SD card is directly connected to your PC and not put into your phone. I don't know why some M9s refuse the copy process.
If you delete the file extension , the phone will allopw the copy and then you can rename after.

How to update firmware with S-ON

I would like to update my HTC10 to Oreo.
Currently I am running Nougat, firmware 2.41 and S-ON.
Can some help me how I can got back to stock using HTC RUU or Stock Backup and OTA method?
I've searched but I can't find any good tutorial here on XDA.
Thanks in advance!

The ruu method is extensively covered in all sections, the Q&A subforum (where this thread belongs too) are filled with the same question and covered.
Get the oreo ruu zip for your region, rename it and copy it to the SD card, boot into download mode and follow the on screen instructions to flash it.

So just to be clear, if I have download the oreo ruu zip (like this one: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569969175) I just place the zip file on my SD card, flash it in download mode and I will have stock oreo with latest firmware on my HTC 10?
My HTC 10 is S-ON, firmware 2.41.401.41, CID__34 and using MaximusHD 3.9 (Nougat)

That's correct, but you must rename the file to
2PS6IMG.zip
Otherwise download mode will not recognize the ruu.

Thanks!
For my HTC M8, I remember I had to go back to stock step by step.
Didn't knew it is so easier nowadays.
After I've flashed your RUU zip file, can I install any other Oreo rom directly?

That RUU won't work with Nougat firmware. For some reason Oreo RUU needs Oreo firmware for it to work. Instead Flash 2.41.401.41 RUU then boot the phone and take OTA to Oreo.
RUU can be found here

After you take the OTA boot to system, flash twrp then flash Oreo ROM of choice.
