couple things. this is the verizon HTC one forum. since you are s on you will need an encrypted ruu to recover that phone or unlock the boot loader via HTC dev assuming this isn't a Verizon phone. you can then flash a custom recovery and flash a custom ROM.

How can i get S-OFF on my HTC M7 with no OS?

if s-on, relock bootloader to flash RUU
Sorry for that, I assumed the procedure would be same as HTC one x. Where I achieved OS by relocking and them flashing ruu.
Dunno what would be good for you. Try searching around...

Like this ? (i'm Sorry i m too Slow)

and i did a Big mistake... i think i Bricked the Device......
Mistakenly i touched on "Format Data" instead of "Factory Reset" on TWRP 2.7.0.2... and then i tried to Flash MaximusHD 5.0.1 ROM... now everytime i touch on reboot, phone comes on on boot loader.... Did i do something wrong with partition ? what should i do ?

As i suspected. In your first post you wrote your hboot was 3.19.....but it's 3.16 and therefore way too low for the latest roms.
You need to update the firmware first, then TWRP to the latest one and then flash one of the latest MM roms.
What was your cid before you changed it to supercid ?
And no you didn't brick it. This is just a software issue. A brick is when the phone won't go the bootloader or recovery anymore.

Old cid should be a sprint one and software number is somewhat like 1.54.654.x
I would suggest to get back to a stock rom + recovery and then update the phones software + firmware via official ota.
Let's see if there is a backup available.
Edit :
I don't know much about sprint devices so check in the specific sprint section for a suited backup. The 1.54.654.x
Here you can find very detailed instructions on how to restore a backup successfully !

Edited my post above. Your supercid should not interfere with ota updates at all. More important is to get a pure stock backup. Or a RUU ..... hold on, a ruu would be an option too but it wipes the ENTIRE phone !
Edit : are you using it on sprint network ?
http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p..._NV_SPCS_1.52_003_release_418492_signed_2.exe
Here is a ruu that would suit your device. Put the phone in the bootloader/fastboot usb menu and execute the RUU.exe with admin rights from the pc (windows, usb 2.0 port connection) it will flash the phone to full stock.
When the ruu is successful you can flash the latest TWRP and flash the skydragon rom

You can't flash the latest roms NOT because of your CID but because the firmware is outdated ! And as far as i can tell about your MID is that it's a sprint device.
You can only flash old kitkat roms at this time.
Maybe @redpoint73 can chip in .......

Q.1 - i want to install SkyDragon 6.0 Marshmallow Sense 7 based Rom.. Do i Need or I have to install Stock 5.0.1 before flash 6.0 marshmallow ?
A. You only need to flash the firmware from Stock 5.0.1.
Go to the link below and flash this:
4.25.651.18 Full Firmware from RUU (fastboot flashable)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
This will also update your hboot to 3.19 so no need to answer Q.2.
Now, flash the latest TWRP, then go flash your favorite "SkyDragon 6.0 Marshmallow Sense 7 based Rom" by following the Dev's instructions on its OP.
All done.
Q.2- Do i need to update HBoot version ?
A. Answered Above.
Q.3- Do i need to update TWRP Recovery ?
A. Yes, flash the latest TWRP because the stock firmware you flashed has already replaced your custom recovery with a stock recovery. Obviously, you can't flash any custom ROM from Stock recovery.

Note: To go back to stock HTC:

I agree, its the Sprint version according to the Model ID. I also agree with the above posts, that RUU is the best way to update the firmware.
But be aware that firmware is not the only potential pitfall on the Sprint version. Custom ROM support for the Sprint version is a little tricky due to kernel differences (with most other versions of the M8). You either need to stick to ROMs that explicitly state they support Sprint; or you may also be able to flash the proper kernel to make the ROM work. As-is (without modifying the kernel) Viper MM will not work on Sprint. I was reading on the ARHD thread, that some Sprint folks got that ROM working with the proper kernel, so the same may be true for Viper. But you should read up and learn more before messing with these ROMs and kernels.

6.0 update problem

Any idea why it fails to flash the 1/2 part of the update in the recovery? It's loading like 1/4 of the progress bar, and then the red warning sign appears. WWE Eu unlocked version. Also, the ruu to flash the 5.1 2.10.401.1 ( i tought it might work with a fresh install ) seems to be not working, as the process suddenly stops after i agree the terms of use and click continue ( i used the exe ).
It had been reverted to stock via a stock rom backup ( from xda, can't remember the exact thread ).
State: S-ON, bootloader relocked, never changed the CID, stock everything ( including the recovery, as i flashed the signed stock version via fastboot after the first failed update try).
Other than that, i don't really know what to do. Also, can i get another link for a 2.10.401.1 ruu ( it seems that it only gives me the 3.35.617.12 on the htc website )? .exe format ( ikr, i'm a noob )

All I can say is the update worked flawlessly on my totally stock phone but I'm yet to notice any significant difference..

My phone is full stock. Was never unlocked. How can I install a fresh rom?

Just to be clear. The update takes ages and reboots many times. Do not touch the phone until it has fully started.
If you get the htc logo after unlocking the screen just leave it for a minute or two.

If you are still with a 2.x firmware, you won't be able to run a Sense Marshmallow rom that needs your firmware to be upgraded. So, two solutions :
- You wait until the official upgrade is available in your country, install it and then you'll be able to flash a Sense Marshmallow rom
- Or you turn your phone S-off and install a 3.x firmware before to flash.
FYI, AOSP Marshmallow roms doesn't need any firmware upgrade (as there are no HTC Sense dependencies), I tried CM13 with 2.10 firmware, it was working perfectly.

i have the same problem.

He said "S-ON, bootloader relocked, never changed the CID, stock everything ( including the recovery, as i flashed the signed stock version via fastboot after the first failed update try)". If the device is completely reverted to stock and official update is available in your country, why not to install OTA?

Mine is with original OS, locked, s-on and I still have this problem with OTA update. HTC said could be a problem with first download (something corrupted) and now can be solved only with manual update in service. Have anyone any idea how can be done that at home? I don't want to send my phone to service.
Sorry for my English!

The problem was solved. It took me 6 hours to manage this. All you need to do is re flash the stock backup with TWRP.
Thank you all developers on this forum !!!

This should be logical. Even to flash yourself the firmware from your country, need to be s-off so I think he turned s-off.

You always need to use the one that corresponds to your current firmware version. As explained in my instructions the firmware version of your phone is stated in Download Mode. Be sure you follow every step exactly as I wrote it. If you don't do that it's no miracle that you can't restore the ability to install OTAs.

Error 155 is usually a firmware or HTC signigature issue.. just flash the old lp firmware and run the ruu. Gotta downgrade firmware before the ruu will match the signatures.

Can someone explain step by step of downgrading please.I have Sprin HTC One 8 . I hate marshmallow , my phone battery is drained after couple hours, it's warming up, I lost my contacts, contacts don't want to sync from FB etc. How I can downgrade back to previous software. Thank you.

I want to down grade because the phone is horribly slow since upgrading to 6.

Cool. So what is the question?
There is some info on the thread about how to downgrade. But to be any more specific, you need to give some info about your phone (fastboot getvar all, and post the results - delete your IMEI and serial number before posting).

Frustrating
This is very frustrating, I can not downgrade due to the firmware issue. Where can I get an older firmware for
a developer phone, s-off and bs_us001?
tpteam6, how did you find yours? I search, but found nothing. Some twrp nand backup stuff.

Help with Restoring Stock Android on HTC 10 CID: HTC__060 RUU 3.18.400.2

Hi guys, I need help in restoring my HTC 10 to stock android and the problem is I can't seem to find any RUUs or TWRP backups for my OS version. I was stupid enough NOT to do a TWRP backup myself.
I'm currently on PureFusion OS Android 8.0 but the homebutton/fingerprint doesn't work. I checked their forums and it says i have to downgrade back to Stock Android 7.0 then flash PureFusion 8.0 again. Problem is, I'm stuck at the downgrade part!
Link: forum.purefusionos[.com]/threads/purefusion-on-htc-no-sim-detected.10/
I have the exact same problem with the OP on the post, but I solved my sim issue by restoring a stock recovery.
Anyone can help me find a suitable RUU or TWRP backup for OS ver 3.18.400.2 and CID HTC__060?
Much appreciated.

Boot to download mode and it will say your firmware version next to OS. RUU won't flash if your downgrading while S ON.

My firmware is 3.18.400.2
I tried using Sunshine tool to turn S-Off but it wont work in PureFusion. Any ideas how to work around this?

Sorry but no. Not sure why sunshine won't work.

Purefusion is probably to modified. Try maximus rom, it's as close to a stock sense rom you can get. S-off with that rom as driver and sunshine will likely work
