S-Off on unlocked HTC One M8 without ROM installed - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

S-Off on unlocked HTC One M8 without ROM installed - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have already unlocked my HTC and tested a few ROMs on it, GPE was the last one I had installed and during that install I also set S-ON somehow. Don't ask me how. Maybe I never had S-OFF, but I did install a GPE ROM from this forum on it somehow.
I honestly don't remember the details from then but now I need to restore it back to stock so I can give the phone away to someone who shouldn't have to worry about OTA upgrades not working.
I have TWRP 3.0.0-1 installed, Unlocked bootloader, S-On and no idea of how to proceed. I found links online talking about connecting wires to set S-OFF, is this really necessary? Can it not be done using fastboot and adb?
I tried the correct HTC__Y13 Nandroid backup from this thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376) but I don't know how to restore it. fastboot flash zip file.zip does not work, in TWRP Install it says the file is corrupt even though md5sum is correct. TWRP Restore doesn't find the zip so I assume it's not for that system.
All these english terms, and guides from 5 years ago are confusing to me, can someone please help me restore my HTC One M8 to factory defaults?

You need to relock bootloader to install RUU - command fastboot oem lock
What you need : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926362&postcount=4
and here is the latest Marshmallow stock ROM if you want it, or you can use that 4.16.401.10 RUU you already have ... same procedure :

S-off isn't needed to return to stock, if that is what you are getting at.
But for the record, NO, s-off can not be done by fastboot/adb. You need a working OS to use the sunshine app ($25) which is the only way to s-off.

Its not a flashable zip, you have to unzip the contents, then place the extracted folder in the proper location.
It describes in Post #2 of the collection thread (in the Q&A, second Question), how to restore a backup. Although its a bit brief, and ckpv5's thread gives better step-by-step instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
But the RUU method given by ckpv5 in the last reply, is probably the easier path in your case.

Ok so now I start with an HTC that is RELOCKED, with TWRP installed. I use TWRP to wipe dalvik, cache, data just in case. Software status is modified.
This is the output of fastboot oem lock.

After that it just hangs and nothing happens, on the HTC screen I see the silver logo with a full green progress bar under it.
The first time I came here I tried to issue fastboot reboot in another terminal but that gave me the following text from htc_fastboot.
Code:
FAILED (status malformed (0 bytes))
Execution time is 261(s)
So this time I'm just waiting to see if anything else happens, only a few minutes so far.

It looks weird the size of RUU you flashed is 53965 KB
Are you sure you tried to install the correct one in your folder ?
Make sure you have one zip only. I've seen people trying to flash RUU but instead flashing unsigned firmware.
You also can try flashing with microSD method.

It eventually worked, the sizes were correct but htc_flashboot.exe went through several iterations of "sending 'zip'... (some size KB) OKAY" before it finally exited with this.
Code:
Flash Zip Complete
Execution time is 358(s)
I had a Fedora laptop with Windows in a VM before but I tried it at home with my desktop Windows system, natively, and then it worked much better. I think the USB connection between the VM and the host is unreliable.

Yeah.. I notice that too because today I did fastboot flash rom.zip
Great that you solved your problem

[Q] HTC One (M8) bootloop

I flashed a custom rom, and I have TWRP for the recovery mode, I'm assuming its because I didn't wipe the dalvik cache.
It turns on and is on the HTC screen (with powered by android at the bottom, the one it shows when turning on) but it stays on it forever and holding down the power button does nothing, do I just wait for the battery to run out, and boot to recovery and try again?

to reboot to recovery:
Press and hold Power and volume Up until the phone shuts off
When the screen shuts off, let go of power/volume up and press and hold volume down until bootloader comes up.
Select recovery.

Okay, that works, I guess its just the ROM that's messed up. I'm going to try a new one and see how that goes

Is it possible to downgrade the Firmware, but how to I know what are previous version to 4 .19.166.2 ?
Is there a way to unlock the device manually (APP can't be used in this Status) and to install a custom ROM ?
Your help is really appreciated, thx.

Can you give me a hint how to solve the problem ?
Any idea how or where to get RUU Image for version 4.19.166.2 ?
Is it possible to downgrade the Firmware, but how to I know what are previous version to 4 .19.166.2 ?
Is there a way to unlock the device manually (APP can't be used in this Status) and to install a custom ROM ?
Your help is really appreciated, thx.

Follow this guide and make sure to repeat the command for flashing the firmware twice.
Wait a couple seconds after the error appears and repeat the command. It will work the second time.

How are you so sure its the correct firmware? Where did you get it from?
Unless the firmware is signed and encrypted, and matches your CID; then you need s-off to flash it.

Yes, its possible, but only with s-off.
I also don't see the point in doing so.

To flash this firmware S-OFF is required and I don't know how to achieve this.

Found an OTA update zip on the Internet that contains the firmware.zip. When I flash the firmware.zip the signitature verification succeeds, so for me it seems the firmware is signed and has correct Version otherwise I would get an error.
Besides that if I unlock the device I get an error which is the case if the firmware.zip is signed.

In this case. Can I flash boot.img via flastboot to solve this?

Are you running a custom ROM? If so, flashing a custom ROM already flashes boot.img. No need or benefit in doing it separately by fastboot.
Otherwise, its hard to know what exactly is causing the bootloop, and whether flashing boot.img will solve it or not.
And you already said you tried to flash boot.img, and it failed.

I bet you get a lot of thanks button for xda hits because of this issue,huh? Thank you,the same thing happened to me and luckily I was home and plugged it up to my computer and luckily got adb reboot recovery to get me out of it. Hopefully I won't need this again but thanks for the info if I do.?

RUU/VZW/4.4.3/Zip/EXE/S-OFF only! (newest)

Custom RUU for sense 6 and kitkat 4.4.3. This file is not encrypted and is for S-Off users only! I posted an RUU mode flashable TWRP file at the bottom of this post... but if you would like to use an app like flashify to flash your own custom recovery that will work too right out of the box as this RUU is ROOTED! Also, HTC preloaded some image files for the "stickers" in the duo effects camera. They are preloaded to /data/preload so you can either flash the zip at the bottom of the second post or manually copy them over to that directory.
Extended power saving mode now present...
This will wipe you phone.
Install EXE method)
Extract EXE zip and double-click aruwizard.exe. Follow prompts on the app to install RUU.
Install Zip method)
Download file into working fastboot directory. Boot phone to fastboot mode and connect to pc. Type in the following commands.
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip VZW.M7.5.28.605.2.PN0731IMG.zip
first time you run this it will be short... so run it a second time
Example in second post..
fastboot flash zip VZW.M7.5.28.605.2.PN0731IMG.zip
The command prompt output will show you details as it flashes each partition and will show you when it has completed. At this time the green bar on the phone will appear 99% of the way across the screen.. Completely normal!~ Issue the next command to kick it out of RUU mode or optionally flash the custom recovery TWRP if you intend to root/flash custom roms and THEN issue the below command to get out of RUU mode.
fastboot reboot
(note) if you just want to reboot back to bootloader you can issue the command fastboot reboot-bootloader This will allow you to boot directly to recovery and start flashing/rooting fun.

That's normal to wipe phone. M7 doesn't have an ext sd card so yes..phone is wiped. I use the same instructions for multiple HTC variants so I can further clarify this one.

HTC ruus will always wipe internal. If the phone has an ext it will not wipe it. That's reason numero uno why the m7 cannot run the ruu from sd.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

fastboot flash zip VZW.M7.5.28.605.2.PN0731IMG.zip
The command prompt output will show you details as it flashes each partition and will show you when it has completed. At this time the green bar on the phone will appear 99% of the way across the screen.. Completely normal!~ Issue the next command to kick it out of RUU mode or optionally flash the custom recovery TWRP if you intend to root/flash custom roms and THEN issue the below command to get out of RUU mode.
fastboot reboot
(note) if you just want to reboot back to bootloader you can issue the command fastboot reboot-bootloader This will allow you to boot directly to recovery and start flashing/rooting fun.

Quick question (& a noobish one at that) but I've really been wondering about this, I know ruu wipes phone n sets it basically like stock, but would it affect your unlocked bootloader, or lock it???

This will NOT lock and there is no need to relock in order to flash it. 100% safe in that regard. Plus you are already rooted afterwards.

Hmm... haven't seen this happen before... any insight?

Two things to check.... Free ram must be enough to send that file (pc ram) and two, that file must exist in that directory (check that the file extension is correct too)

Strange, I had to reboot and it flashed, then on the second flash it gave me the same error... I waited a minute and tried again and it worked... soo looks successful now. Must be a funky driver or something I've got installed. All good now, thanks!
Windows 8.1/USB3 funkiness still I bet.

Just wanted to thank you for posting this RUU! I already thanked the posts...lol. Ran into a snafu and had to run this bad boy. Life saver.

RUU/VZW/5.0.2/Zip/EXE/S-OFF only!

Custom RUU for sense 6 and Lollipop 5.0.2. This file is not encrypted and is for S-Off users only! I posted an RUU mode flashable TWRP file at the bottom of this post... but if you would like to use an app like flashify to flash your own custom recovery that will work too right out of the box as this RUU is ROOTED!

Download exe.. Double click exe on pc and allow it to extract and do its thing.

I ran this same ruu on my m7 before posting it and had the same error fwiw. We had weird stuff on the m8 in jumping from kitkat to lollipop

That worked! Thank you sir. Booting now!

Added that to my second post. This might keep me from using the exe option. I may need a tester who hasn't flashed it yet to try the exe for me.

i'm having issues with the flash, getting the following error:
G:\>fastboot flash zip VZWm7_6.22.605.3RUU.zip
target reported max download size of 1514139648 bytes
load_file: could not allocate 1493490894 bytes
error: cannot load 'VZWm7_6.22.605.3RUU.zip': Not enough space
I've tried fastboot erase cache with no success. Any thoughts?

Your PC doesn't have enough free ram.
Need at least 2gbs free.

Really, on an 8 GB machine. I'll check again. I'm on Windows 8.1, and usually run about 32% ram usage. I'll check though, not doubting you.

Unzip this. Copy ruu to it. Open cmd prompt from there and use the HTC_fastboot.exe in this folder instead

I got it to flash with a linux live boot. thank you though.

Usually when I see not enough space or something to that effect, it's lack of available ram for it to cache the file.
But I guess in your case, that wasn't the issue and I'm glad you got it worked out. :good:

Reworked the zip and i am uploading both the zip and exe now...
Would like some feedback on flashing..

I've always been curious about what this line means, I know I've seen it in your posts for previous RUU versions as well:
NOTE.... VZW does not allow bootloader unlocking and since you must have root to use @scotty1223 's command you will need to flash a custom recovery and root the the stock rom.
What is scotty1223's command?
I cant wait to flash this later after work, do you have to change much when reworking the zip or is this mostly from intercepting the OTA version and tweaking it to have root and not relock the bootloader?
Thanks as always for your work.

If you are bootloader unlocked to start this comment doesn't apply. If you are flashing the ruu via fastboot you can simply flash the twrp zip immediately after the ruu in the same fastboot mode.

I just realized you had a second question here....
lol.
so here's the thing... no OTA or RUU will relock for this device. The older device's had an EXE that did the relocking. The RUU zip itself did not. So that said, for every device even up to the m9 no OTA or RUU zip file will do it. Would have to be an EXE or human to do the actual relock.
I had to repack this last night because something didn't seem quite right for me and for me that meant flashing back to 4.4.4 and re-flashing both OTAs again to go for a cleaner build. I believe something was weird in my first flashing of the OTAs because on the second time it took a hell of a lot longer (something which most of the people i know reported on their first time). I suspect the phone i had just gotten back from HTC might not have really had all the 4.4.4 firmware on it. So this time, I tested and retested it on my own device before uploading around 2am. Was a long day and night for me......
I'm fairly certain this is the clean build.....

installed zip through RUU yesterday. working great all day! thanks!!!

How to Easily Upgrade Hboot, Recovery & ROM on HTC One M8 ???

Hi,
I have now tried for days to figure out and experiment with how to upgrade the following on my HTC One M8 (rooted & S-OFF), searching this and other forums, nearly bricking my phone:
hboot: 3.16 to latest version
TWRP: 2.7.0.2 to latest version
ROM: 4.4.2 from stock to latest Lollipop version of CyanoGenMod (or other, if better with regards to costumization and speed)
Here's my "getvar all" info:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.16.0.0000

I would be very grateful for a strategic overview of what to do first and if possible step-by-step and video directions
Kindly,

This is not a valid CID. SuperCID is 1111111
Also, you need to delete your IMEI and serial number, as those are private info that should never be posted on open forums.
What you want is pretty easy, since you are s-off. My recommendation would be to flash the appropriate Lollipop firmware zip, than flash latest TWRP by fastboot (unless the firmware zip was modified to remove stock recovery) and desired ROM.

Hi Redpoint,
Thanks a lot for helping me out

>> My Hboot is only 3.16 and I see I need to upgrade to 3.19 to flash Lollipop /CyanoGenMod. Can I make this upgrade before the ROM? Also, what is the proper way to do it and where do I get the official version 3.19?
I have read a lot of posts on the different upgrades and tried flashing several files, but have only ended up nearly bricking my phone, as the info was unclear/faulty and the files were wrong/corrupted.
Can you tell me where to find reliable and detailed step-by-step instructions on how to do all these things with links to valid files?
Hope I'm not asking too much

Its not "can", its "MUST". You must upgrade your hboot before you flash CM12/12.1. Otherwise the ROM won't even flash if you don't have an updated hboot!

The previous CIDNUM was HTC__102

That thread is exactly what you want, and the exact thread I was going to link you to (after verifying the original CID).
Follow the link in the thread to the M8 firmware collection, go to 401 folder, and download the 4.16.401 firmware zip. Then follow the instructions in the thread on how to flash it (no need to relock bootloader since you are s-off). The zip will update all firmware, including hboot.
Firmware also installs stock recovery, so you will need to install TWRP again, and as you mentioned you will now need a updated version of TWRP (2.7 won't work with hboot 3.19). Get TWRP 2.8.7 from here: https://dl.twrp.me/m8/
Then flash TWRP in fastboot (more instructions here). Now make a TWRP backup ("nandroid") of your present ROM, to be safe (allow you to revert if you run into problems). Backup any other personal data you want to migrate, by method of your choice (Titanium Backup, cloud services, etc.). Then load the desired CM ROM onto the phone, do default wipe in TWRP (data, cache and Dalvik) and flash the ROM and flash gapps (Google apps) package. Reboot and setup the new ROM.

Hi Redpoint,
Thanks very much for all your kind help and patience with me
I donloaded the firmware (4.16.401.10) as you described and followed the instructions on installing. As it states, one may have to repeat the flashing, to complete it, which I also was asked to do. The second time it went all the way through and I rebooted, but am now stuck with a boot loop, only showing the HTC logo. I was able to boot into recovery and manged to turn off the phone, which is recharging now.
Here's the CMD dump below - any idea what went wrong and how I can rectify it?

What I think happened: the firmware installs kernel (boot.img) which is not compatible with you old ROM. Therefore, resulting in not being able to boot into OS.
But I think you can go ahead and flash TWRP 2.8.7,and flash the ROM of your choice (CM, etc.).
The flush error the first time is totally normal, I've seen that before.
Not sure why sbl1 shows failed, but then successful. But I think sbl (which is bootloader) is fine, otherwise you wouldn't be able to access bootloader, or even turn on the screen at all, for that matter.
What does it say on the bootloader screen for hboot, radio number, and OS number (this still verify the firmware updated properly)?

Neither. Its on the white bootloader screen of the phone (the text shown near the top of the screen) such as when issuing fastboot commands or selecting recovery (but before you actually enter recovery mode).
Although some folks refer to hboot/bootloader screen as "recovery" but this is really not correct, and can be confusing to describe it here that way.

Succeeded!!

Hi Redpoint,
The firmware was installed properly and I succeeded installing CyanoGenMod 12.1. The only thing needing some extra attention was finding a suitable Google Play app, which I found here:

M8 AT&T, bootloop, recovery doesn't work. HBOOT work fine. I Can pay your help!

Hello Friends.
my HTC ONE M8 (M8_UL) originally had the OS KitKat 4.4.4. I update the GPE cm-12.1-20150901-SNAPSHOT-YOG4PAO23A-m8. The phone worked well a couple of months, then suddenly stopped working.
Then try to repair installing the firmware sense of KitKat, but after this attempt the recovery stopped working. Currently you install a firmware GPE again, but the phone is still not working. The custon recovery not working.
If I restart the phone, the HTC logo appears and the phone is turned off.
If the logo appears on HTC bootloader recovery selected and the phone is turned off.
These are the solutions I've tried:
1) fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (recovery.img = OpenRecovery-TWRP-2.7.0.1-m8.img, OpenRecovery-TWRP-2.7.1.0-m8.img, OpenRecovery-TWRP-2.8.5.0-m8.img).
2) fastboot flash boot boot.img (boot.img = boot.img Extracted to ATT444firmware.zip, or UCP-HTC_One_ (M8) _GPe_Marshmallow-6.0_MRA58K.H6_5.07.1700.6_0p6bdiag.zip)
3) relocked fastboot and install RUU_M8[email protected]50319A_40.45.C33065.00_F_release_446225_signed_2.exe
Nothing has worked. I still recovery. I try turns off so soon.
This video show the problem!!! search in youtube "M8 AT&T, bootloop, recovery doesn't work. HBOOT work fine"

What firmware, where did you get it and what is the file name and version number?
What happened when you flashed it, what was the result and what were the error messages?

If you didn't get a working Sense ROM on the phone in the first place, flashing the boot.img won't help anything.

Relocking bootloader is not required to RUU when s-off; and its not recommended. It doesn't help anything, and will hamper or needlessly complicate recovery efforts.
Again, what were the specific details of the results of running the RUU? How did the phone react, what did the RUU do, error messages, etc.

Thanks very much for your help!!

The RUU instalation is normal, no errors appear.
What tests do you recommend me to diagnose the problem?
What commands can I use in bootloader mode?

The Sense firmware definitely did not install correctly. Otherwise, you would have a white bootloader screen to match the Sense firmware.
Also, 4.16.401 is Euro firmware, not AT&T. If its signed firmware, it won't flash with the wrong CID and MID on the device. But I can't tell what you are trying to flash, exactly; since I asked where you got the firmware from, and you never answered.
I would suggest running a GPE RUU (especially if the intent is to stay on GPE). Otherwise try to flash one of the AT&T firmwares included on the following, then try the AT&T RUU again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365

Really I do not remember where I download a firmware .
I will make the changes That you suggest me and tell you.
Thank you again

What I suggested, was to flash the firmware, (don't install TWRP) then try a Sense AT&T RUU.

I can not turn on the cellphone. I can not input in boot loader mode. I probe vol up + vol down + power buttom per 2 min. What things I can do?

What's with the PMs and TeamViewer?
That's not the way things are done on XDA.
Help him in this thread with instructions, so that others that might have the same issue can find the solution by searching.
I believe this has already been mentioned to you in the past, and that you agreed to stop posting "PM & TeamViewer"
