[Q] HTC One M8 / Returning to stock issues

Why are you using a 3.28 if you're still on 2.xx
Restore the correct ROM then you won't have Radio Firmware issues.

I think you need to have stock recovery img to revert to stock ROM as stated in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2744194

how do you know?

But how can you tell he's on version 2.xx - sorry for my ignorance of this - I'm in a similar boat, and it's not clear to me how to work out what's the correct stock rom to use?

Hboot version 3.16 was for 1.12.xxx.x and 1.54.xxx.x, hboot 3.18 was for android 4.4.3 i.e version 2.22.xxx.x and hboot 3.19 is for latest android 4.4.4 version 3.28.xxx.x going by international version numbers. Other carriers will be in similiar range, 2.23.502.3 for AT&T for example.

Is that the Sprint H/K model? Your getvar only shows what you have now, not what you had before. But I believe your MID is H/K?

Change your MID to WWE to run that RUU, 0P6B10000.
[how to] change your MID without an eng bootloader In the section "HTC Europe MID" . Copy and paste commands, make sure you have no extra spaces either before or after command. Putting it in manually and you do it wrong might give you more problems.
Change CID to HTC__001
fastboot oem writecid HTC__001

had errors but fixed, now to try the RUU out.
EDIT:
RUU was successful, i now have wifi, anything else i need to do to be back on stock or is that it? will i be able to upgrade to Android L?
do i need to lock my bootlocker?
does RUU install a stock recovery?

So it updates successfully, however when I go into Google Play Movies, only the rent option is available, I buy movies a lot as I own Chromecast, anyone know why buy option would be gone? Checked other android phones in house and they all still have buy options.

I Need Lastest Android 6.0 RUU

Hi guys. I need Ruu*.exe file for my m8. I have rooted, unlocked and tempered m8. I must go bak to official. Now the lastest official software is running but this is a rom. Not the official software installed on My Phone. Anybody can help me about this?
ps: Sorry for My badly english

Every region/carrier version has a different RUU. The RUU needs to match your CID and MID.
Do you know your CID? Current version number?
Best way to get the required info (and for us to help), is do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

I dont know cid number but i am from Turkey and must be Turkey rom

I'm gonna share my information about my phone... I need 2-3 minutes

Did you know all this to begin with, or did you just figure it out?
RUU is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64869713&postcount=3
Can't personally vouch for it, but others seem to be using it successfully.

Relock the bootloader with command: fastboot oem lock
Then connect to PC, reboot phone into bootloader-fastboot mode, and just run the RUU executable from the PC.

Hi, can I have the latest available RUU as well for my device? Currently the device is having issues where it couldn't detect the SIM and WiFi/Bluetooth all not working at all, IMEI also not shown in the OS.

Where to get latest firmware.zip for htc one m8

I have an htc one m8 ATT phone I want to install the ViperOneM8 5.02 rom on which says I need to update the firmware to a marshmellow firmware I think.
Or the latest.
While I have found some documentation how to do this on the net, I am not sure where I obtain these files.
The firmware.zip I believe it is
Help on this would be appreciated
Right now I am using hboot 3.16 and twrp 2.7

I found this link
http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=32780
and grabbed the 4.16.1540.8.zip but want to make sure I am grabbing the correct and latest version. Because I don't want to brick my phone

Post your fastboot getvar all result without serial & imei no.
You may need a different firmware if it's AT&T & S-On and also don't use that outdated 2.7 TWRP.

For some devices, TWRP 2.7 is recommended due to how older boot loaders may not take it well.
I like TWRP. When its workable, its array of tools is superior to CWM. But after I tried 2.8.x, I decided CWM or TWRP at or below 2.7.0.2 is safer and less crash prone.
When I attempted to boot to recovery it would boot loop. Please be mindful of boot signing. If you so slightly make your OEM software notice things a fuse will make your phone implode.

Read again what he is trying to do man ... he's going to update to Marshmallow firmware and that outdated TWRP 2.7 won't work for him (he can't even install his intended ViperOneM8 5.02 ROM with that outdated TWRP)
..... that's why I said don't use that outdated TWRP

Good point. For some odd reason CM pairs ROMs and Recoveries. If you check the Dev Auto update option would that be unnecessary.
It's been an itching question I actually had...
Sent from my HTC M8 GPE
? Mass Transit Honchkrow ?

I originally had twrp 2.8 on and tried to install the latest. But it was freezing because I think I need a newer version of hboot. which I have 3.16 on it.
I then downgraded to 2.7 to get it working. I installed ViperOnem8 Rom not reading the website successfully. but have issues with wifi, and 2 minute boot times.
"The 5.0.x ROM is based on HTC’s latest M8 Sense 7 Android 6.0.x base and requires you to update your firmware to at least the 6.0.x (Marshmallow) version! If you don’t you will run into some issues such as Wi-Fi not working or No Boot, etc.
We cannot install the firmware for you during ROM installation so you will need to take the steps to update the firmware on your own."
So I need to update my firmware. I have an ATT S-ON phone. But I have no clue where to get the firmware from, and make sure it is the right one and recent.
I need to update my firmware in order for this rom and a newer version of twrp to work correctly

ok, so
I upgraded to 3.11.1700.5 firmware I found. and that was successful.
Then I upgraded my twrp to twrp-3.0.2-0-m8 and that was successful
Now I am trying to install either Revolution Rom, or ViperOnem8 and both have the same problem. After install they keep booting into twrp and won't load.
I tried Cynamod and that installed and booted fine.
I believe both Revolution and Viper use the Aroma installer. Anyone know what is going on with these and a fix to stop it from booting into twrp?

Need advice

Wrong firmware. You installed an old version of GPE firmware.
You can't install Sense ROM like Revolution and Viper on GPE firmware.
I asked you to post fastboot getvar all to help you but it seems that you made it harder now because you installed a wrong firmware. If it is S-Off, then it is easy to fix.

First - remove all serial & imei no. from your above post.
As I said, it is not easy to fix this with S-On device. What you can try is to install the latest AT&T 6.20.502.5 firmware first then run 6.20.502.5 RUU
Read this for the firmware and how-to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66886759&postcount=23
You can get the RUU here : http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-att/news/

so your saying, install the ruu, update the firmware, then re install viper?
Can't I just update the firmware like I did before? It was S-On before I updated the firmware

The ruu won't install. it says needs more then 30% battery, yet it is fully charged

No .. I don't say that ... read again ...
Flash firmware.zip first then RUU ...
or install ROM first, don't reboot the system, but reboot to bootloader, relock bootloader then flash firmware.zip
As you already flashed a wrong firmware, as I said this may work and may not work but the only way that you can try to fix the wrong firmware installed.

Because you have wrong firmware installed.

but with what firmware.zip? I never got the right firmware.zip to begin with so I don't have any firmware files to update with

That show you don't read all the posts that I posted .. the firmware.zip is posted in the post that earlier posted
You have to wait for someone else I guess who can write a post that you can understand .. maybe my English is not good enough ... good luck

ok .. now that I understand what you are saying. because you had the RUU .exe and also were explaining how to update the firmware at the same time while the firmware was burried a couple of levels of posts, I didn't understand what you were saying.
so it looks like the firmware updated successfully

I unlocked the firmware through the htc website with the Unlock_code.bin
because fastbook oem unlock didn't work.
had to reinstall twrp and that worked after reinstall. although lots of mounting file system errors. with /Data I don't know if that's normal.
seems to be fixed after formatting
Now I will try installing a rom

Now you got it.
And yes, after changing from GPE to Sense GSM (AT&T) firmware, you need to reinstall TWRP (the latest 3.0.2-0) and you MUST format data partition, in TWRP - select WIPE, Format Data - yes ... because GPE & Sense data partition is of different size.

Please where can i get compatible firmware for my htc one m8s with S.O 1.12.1405.6 . I have been on this over 3 weeks now but all no avail.

m8_wlv is Verizon device
version main & mid is WWE device not Verizon
i believe you need to change your mid and flash stock firmware for your device then flash the RUU which meant for your device

Actually, the MID shouldn't matter.
With SuperCID, the MID check is bypassed. It's worked that way with the M7, M8, and M9. With the HTC 10 though, MID must be changed as SuperCID doesn't bypass the check.
Flashing the latest Verizon firmware should be enough. The RUU would only be necessary to run a stock ROM. If a custom ROM is going to be installed, the firmware flash will be enough.
He/she should make sure to flash a full stock firmware and not a "no wipe" version though, since the boot.img (stock kernel) will be removed on a no-wipe firmware package.

@xunholyx
thanks for make it clarity
but is there any thing else should be worried about after flashing WWE firmware over Verizon firmware
and i think he need the stock RUU

Well, flashing GSM firmware onto a CDMA device is NEVER recommended, so I do understand your thoughts here. And I do agree that running a RUU would be the best and cleanest way to convert back. Changing the MID back to Verizon's should not be necessary, but truthfully there is no reason not to. The OP should stick to Verizon firmware only, so the MID being changed back to 0P6B20000 would probably be a good idea. :highfive:

thank you for your help. I gave the phone to telephone repairman

Well, I hope they know what they are doing. Because the phone was all kinds of messes up, and not every repair person would know how to fix it (if its even fixable). Someone at some point (if not you, then a former owner) tried to flash the unbranded Euro firmware to this Verizon device. The result is usually a radio brick, and the damage may be permanent.
Most that person can do, is flash the Verizon firmware and RUU (as others have stated) and hope it works properly after that. Unless they are going to replace the whole mainboard.
