Download this.
Rename the .zip to 0P6BIMG (that's a zero, not the letter)
Put it onto you extSD, then boot into bootloader. (power off your phone, then boot it up while holding both power + vol down)
Choose hboot if it doesn't automatically (it should) and follow the prompts. (vol up to flash, power to reboot)
That's it. Super easy.
Be sure to delete the renamed file from your extSD afterwards, otherwise every time you boot to bootloader it'll try to update again.

It'll update you too the latest stock.
You'll also lose all your data, so back everything up that is important to you first.
I forget to mention that sometimes, but making a backup and saving it to your extSD before doing any flashing should be already known if you are on XDA imo. But since people here don't always adhere to that rule, I'll mention it here.

That error indicate that your device MID is wrong.
You need to have MID 0P6B10000 for OTA.
Check your current MID by running command fastboot getvar mid
after you put it on bootloader/fastboot and connect to PC

Hi I have m8 16gb and I don't know its variant and I also don't know anything about this android phone.
Can anyone please help me. I don't have any recovery and don't know how to install its firmware again. I tried some of the firmware but my mobile don't pick up the signals.
It Happens when I tried to reset the phone and I accidently wipe the phone because I didn't know this could be possible at all :crying:
In its bootloader it shows
***TAMPERED ***

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Grab the latest TWRP recovery here and rename the file to 'recovery.img'
2. Boot your phone into bootloader and the first highlighted option is fastboot, use power button to enter fastboot mode.
3. Use google to search for fastboot files and place them into a folder named "Fastboot" .
4. Placed the downloaded TWRP recovery into the fastboot folder.
5. Press right shift key + left mouse and click on open command window.
6. In command window, type this command in: "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (without the quotes)
7. Now, download a ROM that your firmware supports and flash it through with your newly installed recovery
8. Enjoy your ROM
5. Press shift & RIGHT mouse button (not left)
Couple basic fumbles that seem all too common on these forums:
1) Why do folks neglect to make a nandroid backup of their stock (or current "known good") seteup before flashing ROMs or doing other mods?
2) Why do some folks insist on wiping partitions when the don't understand the basics of what that partition is, and what the effect will be? If you don't know what it is, don't mess with it, and certainly don't wipe it!

Your software status says MODIFIED
1. Did you root your phone or install a custom ROM?
2. Which OTA were you installing?
3. Can you access the stock recovery?
I was able to go to stock recovery until morning i tried reloading my phone with RUU
After that i am not able to power on my phone
My pc makes a sound after i connect my phone
But nothing else is detecting
UPDATE
i am able to go into recovery mode

I Heard I need to install some RUU files? but Since I do not have an OS, I need to install one first.
I also installed a file called 0PFJIMG_A51_UL_L50_DESIRE_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.4_Radio_01.01.010_U10305041_08.01.50512_release_460795 . ZIP
but whenever I try to extract it, it says the file is corrupt
How can I install an OS on my HTC Desire 820?
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Bump. What does relocked mean?
