i need you help guys , i'm just trying to power up my phone normal and never go back to this bootloader screen

You flashed a rom that wouldn't work on Sprint device by default. You need proper kernel to run with this ROM but I will not go further on this.
Your best bet now is install RUU meant for Sprint.

Thnks for your reply sir , i was trying to do this , but now my phone cannot connect to the RUU installation wizard , How can i do it

I'm not on PC .. unable to write proper guide.
The easier one for you is download 0P6BIMG_Sprint_HTC_One_M8_4.25.651.14_RUU.zip
then rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip and put it on your microSD, not in any folder.
On bootloader, press power once to go to hboot. Once on hboot it will scan the file and ask whether to update. Volume up to update and let it do its stuff. Once completed, reboot.
After setup complete, delete that zip file.
Before that, if you select to go to recovery, do you still have TWRP ?
If yes, boot to recovery and make backup of your internal storage as the above procedure will wipe everything on your device except microSD.
Or you can install any ROM with sprint support (like the one I'm using now) then you don't need RUU.
After completed and ROM is booting, you can install any other ROM with Sprint support.
But it's best for you to update your firmware to Marshmallow first.

thnks a lot , i'm going to do this steps seems easy ,
the last part that i didn't get , how can i update my firmware to marshmallow first ?

ckpv5 , got the ruu file and rename it and copy it to sdcard , but when i go into HBoot it says
Image Update Fail
Parsing ...
Device Halted due to large Image Update Fail
press power to rebbot .

You downloaded the one that I mentioned ? I made a mistake there (wrong file copied).
You need the one that have 4.25.654.14 in it, sorry.
When I said update to Marshmallow first, that's after you fixed current problem.
After you successfully installed 4.25.654.14, then do OTA to 4.25.654.18 then later to 6.20.654.3
(That's why I don't like to help when not on PC.. sometime copy wrong filename)

[Q] HTC One m8 fingerprint update error

Helllo there!
I'm making a new thread because I couldn't find anyone with the exact same problem and don't want to brick my phone or such.
Now to the problem: every time I try to update my HTC one m8 (Europe) it stops when installling and tells me this:

You should post your getvar all (deleting your imei number and S./N ) there is a post here but it is in german with the same problem which points to an incorrect recovery!

Being rooted or not has no bearing on OTA update.
Also, it seems that you are trying to tell the OP to root (not completely clear, with the 2 word post), when he clearly states he is already rooted.

By the way, the other guy had a different problem.
Has anyone got an idea of whats wrong?

Download and run the 3.28.401.10 RUU first (a quick search here and you'll find it), then run this one.

Wrong stock recovery image.
OTA needs stock recovery 3.28.401.9 (389838.9) or 4.16.401.10 (448934.10)
but you installed 3.28.401.6 (389838.6)
Get the right recovery image, OTA will proceed.

Okay thank you so far!
But now it comes up with a different error; It says "/system/xbin/nc has unexpected contents".
Let me tell you the whole story:
Some time ago i installed busybox, xposed and xprivacy (and luckypatcher) and used it normaly.
Then the Lollipop update came around and since it wasnt working (giving out the unexpected contend error) i thought it would be a good idea to just do a factory reset.
It didnt work afterwards either, so i went here to ask what the problem was, and i was told it was because of xposed.
However, xposed wasn't installed anymore (the app), and (i think) the newer versions installed it somewhere else, so installing and then uninstalling (the button in the app) it didnt delete the old directory. (Btw. in an last attempt i tried installing the stick recovery and got the wrong one apparently)
So yeah, i have no idea on how to fix this problem, but i would be okay with having to reset my phone.

That's expected
There are a few methods to solve your problem.
The easiest one is RUU it back to stock.
Follow this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735235
You need to relock bootloader and also make a backup of your internal storage files/pic/music or whatever you like to keep.
The RUU will update your device to the latest

You don't have S-Off - that's why you need to relock bootloader
That's the only difference - read the thread thoroughly.
First step - relock bootloader with command fastboot oem lock
then follow the step 3 onwards
Also note you need to use htc_fastboot.exe not the usual fastboot.exe
Anything you need to ask, you can ask there. I believe @EddyOS will gladly help you

But .. this is what you can do to fix your problem ...
Check for OTA as usual, download OTA then select install later.
Connect your device to PC then copy the OTA zip from internal storage\download folder to PC
Open the OTA zip with 7-zip, you'll see firmware.zip. Open firmware.zip and extract out recovery.img <--- this is the one that you need.
Boot your device to bootloader
Fastboot flash this extracted recovery.img
Reboot, check for OTA again, this time select install now
Done

First ... remove the serial no. & imei no in your post as they are sensitive info.
You have 3 options :
1. Restore 4.16.401.10 TWRP backup - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60147089&postcount=5104
It read as WWE 4.20.401.10 TWRP Backup but that's typo error .. it should read as WWE 4.19.401.10 TWRP Backup
or
2. Relock your bootloader and install 4.16.401.10 RUU.exe - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56140330&postcount=1
(make backup of your internal storage important data as this will wipe everything)
or
3. Relock your bootloader and fastboot flash the 4.16.401.10 RUU.zip - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735235
(make backup of your internal storage important data as this will wipe everything and also note you need htc_fastboot instead of normal fastboot)

Read the thread linked in my signature on how to restore a TWRP backup.
You need to extract it with 7-zip and put those files in your backup folder not to ADB it nor fastboot it.
hi guys
I have similar problem.

software number was 4.16.401.10 before OTA update.
can i also use the files above to try to fix the phone?
Thank you. restore is in progress.
After restore i will flash back stock recovery and then relock the bootloader.
If i do that, my top line in bootloader will disappear ? right now is : "Software status: Modified "

No need to relock bootloader.
Only when running RUU.exe or RUU.zip you need to relock bootloader when S-On.
Using a backup no need to relock bootloader. Just flash stock recovery then do OTA.
If that backup fails (as I'm not sure whether that's fully stock or not), I put up my own stock backup in my thread .. you can try that later if current one fails.
Restore successfully completed. Now, in order not to have problems with latest OTA , i have to restore stock recovery, right ?

Are you sure that you started installing OTA after flashing stock recovery ?

Yes. OTA downloaded and I tried twice to install, but all it did was restart phone into bootloader.
After flashing stock recovery, I rebooted phone, ran OTA and update started.
After update completed, phone rebooted to white start screen with HTC logo and froze there.
I have read that this is probably because I ran OTA on rooted device.
So now i am stuck with no OS and hope these files will help.
Thanks ckpv5 for help and link.
stock nandroid restore worked. got my phone back
flashed stock recovery and running OTA again now. fingers crossed.
but whatever happens, just wanna say thanks again guys. much appreciated.

thanks very much guys.

if I may ask, what is the safest method to run OTA in future?
i dont really know. Anyway , how about your free space. i dont know what happened because now i have less that 1 GB free space.

Boot the custom recovery and make a pure stock backup. Restore that one if you need to ota update again

The best solution for me if I ever have this problem .. I will format data (not wipe data) in TWRP before I restore the backup (of course need to backup internal storage data somewhere else first)
Done . Now i have free space. many thanks !!

Deleted Teamwin Recovery without having stock recovery again-Bootloop HTC One M8

Hey everyone
The thing is that I was trying to return my phone to stock recovery to update my phone to Marshmallow and unroot it and I read this in another forum:"Boot your phone to TWRP recovery mode by turn off your phone then presses Vol up + Power to boot into bootloader then choose RECOVERY. There is a more simple way, by using “adb reboot recovery”.
Once came into TWRP main menu, now tap Mount -> Mount system then taps Home.
Tap Advanced -> File Manager, browse to “/system/xbin” folder. From there delete su, daemonsu or busybox if it exists. Also browse to “/system/app” the get rid of Superuser.apk."
So I followed these instructions and then when I rebooted the phone,it got stuck in bootloop. I can't turn it off now or get into the bootloader.
Android-HTC One M8
What can I do to have my phone again in stock recovery?
Thanks in advance
First of all if you rooted the rom this ain't going to work. You need a never rooted stock rom + recovery.
Hold power + volume up and switch to volume down when the screen turns black (do not let go of the power button) then you are in the BL. From there you go to the custom TWRP recovery.
Then you have to find a pure stock backup or a RUU that matches your OS/firmware number (if you haven't made one yourself), restore it and flash the stock recovery and you are done.

You can't run the dev edition RUU at all as you are S-ON and have a different firmware. If you have the 709 RUU then try that indeed. But backup what you need because a RUU deletes EVERYTHING !

So my steps would be S-OFF and from there download 4.24.709.3 RUU? with firmware you mean version-main, right?
Before all this mess I thankfully backed up everything I wanted

No S-OFF is NOT needed. just get the RUU with that version number indeed if it's even available. Then run it with a RELOCKED bootloader.

A stock back-up has to be unpacked and RESTORED with TWRP. No idea what you are doing now but i suggest to stop and read instructions first !

M out after going back to stock Rom

Hello guys,
I have a big probleme. I decided to change mobile, i put my as original since it's easy to sell. I was on leedroid rom with twrp on custom recovery.
So on twrp i flash my original Rom (i ever done it one time so i know it's the good one). Everithing work great, the phone restart. I want to improve the Rom step by step, and i download kitkat 4.4.4, when it's done the phone restart, load kitkat and restart. That the begenning of probleme, it reboot i here the small song, then i stay lock one start screen (Htc-Powered by android), very strange, the screen give some vibration as if it work but nothing move, locking on this screen ........ No probleme, i restart on recovery and i start on recovery factory, the phone boot, as if it load the recovery factory version, it boot again, but nothing more, locked on white screen with Htc powered by android, and the small thong.
Here's, i don't have phone since 2 days. If you have a solution to restart this M8, please help me.
Thanks in advance for your answer.
Most probably because of a very low android version installed on a high firmware version.
Post fastboot getvar all result (without serial & imei no.) to see what actually that you need.
Thanks for you answer, how can i get fastboot getvard ?
Never expect this kind of question from a "member" of XDA.
Anyway ... connect your device to pc after you put it on bootloader/fastboot mode
Open a command prompt from your adb/fastboot folder then type
fastboot getvar all
Sorry, i have done that long time ago.

That's your problem .. you have Marshmallow 6.12.163.4 firmware but you restored a very old version and it get stuck due to too high firmware.
I don't see anywhere a backup or RUU for 6.12.163.4 around ... you need to find it.
I'll see whether I can find a lower version than make a good collection in my backup thread
Edit : you should have already make your own backup since our last conversation here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57254494&postcount=3175 .... maybe you can contact him again.
Edit 2 : You can wait and I'll upload 6.12.163.4 backup to my backup thread (link in my signature) either tomorrow or Sunday
Arf, ok, so i will try to find this one. I hope i will get it.
I'm just asking, how can i flash this version (if i find it), since i can't access to my phone, i never do this before ?
I found this for you ....
ROM 4.19.163.2 (+ radio & stock recovery, màd par Migascalp, flash via TWRP*)
Install TWRP then install it as same as you install custom ROM then do OTA to 6.12.163.4
Source : https://monhtcone.com/2015/03/05/boite-a-outils-pour-le-htc-one-m8/comment-page-1/
Thanks to @migascalp
Thanks a lot
The problem is that before i use Twrp to flash my custom rom, and now i only have the original recovery

Reinstall TWRP - https://dl.twrp.me/m8/
Download twrp-3.0.2-0-m8.img and place it in your adb/fastboot folder
connect your device to pc after you put it on bootloader/fastboot mode
Open a command prompt from your adb/fastboot folder then type
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-0-m8.img
then you get TWRP recovery installed then proceed the rest
gotta go now ... good luck
Thanks a lot Kuala for your help. I download everythings then i do it. I give you news when it's done.
Thanks again mate
Thanks a lot mate for your help.
TWRP installed
15 minutes to go for Rom ....
Working great Kuala. Amazing, thanks for advices and help
Arf, it's not working perfectly, i can't install 6.0. It's loading, decompress, but when M8 reboot to install it make error.....
Does some one have idea ?
Thanks for answer.
Why error ? Did you root it ? If you root it, you'll get error.
Here is another way for you :
Install latest TWRP
Restore 6.12.163.4 non-rooted backup
Install 6.12.163.4 stock recovery
Done
All files needed and how-to, read my thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860

Your recovery is corrupted, just download twrp from their official site and install it via ADB.I trust once you get a custom recovery working you know what to do next?
Ty for the reply.
Which custom recovery do i need from the cid i have... ?
Custom recovery won't do any good for you ...
Just read this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/one-m8s-general/make-custom-recovery-htc-one-m8s-t3114245
then install 2.10.401.1 RUU ... that's for CID HTC__031 provided you not yet OTA to recent update 2.20.401.1

Ive Read that i must the phone me s-off. Is that true ? I tried that with some progams but nothing seems to work ...
Not true .. you don't need s-off. What you need is a LOCKED or RELOCKED bootloader.
And the correct method.
Post fastboot getvar all result (delete serial & imei no.) then we'll see which one that you need.

I was right in earlier post.
1. You need to download the 0PKVIMG_M8_QL_UL_M60_SENSE70_HTC_Europe_2.10.401.1 _Radio_1.0.U20410.1 @ 60201_20.05_018_F_release_479349_combined_signed.zip from the first link that I mentioned above.
2. Rename the RUU zip to 0PKVIMG.zip and place it on the root of your microSD
3. Boot to bootloader select hboot, it will scan the 0PKVIMG.zip and ask you to update. Volume up to update ..let it done until it finished. Then reboot.
Note : You never say anything about your current bootloader. Is it LOCKED or UNLOCKED ? If it is UNLOCKED, you need to relock it first before you run the procedure. But I assume it is LOCKED as you don't know about custom recovery as in your post.

I can't access that site ... can't check the file.
Read this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70051683&postcount=18 (it was the second link that I gave earlier)
Do you download from the correct folder - Firmware (Expert) -> Firmware Crypted (Original HTC)
Also check whether it's a zip in a zip .. if it is, you need to extract the RUU zip from the first zip (I remember this is the way they put the zip)
U were righ. It was zip.zip.
As it seems its fixed now !
Ty for the help and the time ! Wish u all the best.
Cheers
