I am stuck, i need to update my phone... - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I really need some help.. last time I updated my phone it was somewhere 2015 so I am totally lost.
In the picture you can see my settings. I am on viper 4.6.1 and I really would like to update to Android 6.0.
Because I am on viper I need to do a official ota.. I can't find y cid number anywhere. So I hope someone can point me in the correct destination. Or is it possible to do a clean wipe and install Android Revolution HD with already a Android 6.0 (or another rom with 6.0) then do a clean wipe and install the new viper 6.0 Android.?
I really hope someone can help me.

I will post it tomorrow, just can home from Paris.
It's not possible to just clear all and flash a other rom with Android 6.0?

No it isn't, as your device is still on Android 5 firmware. ROMs based on Android 6 need the appropriate firmware to be installed first. To update your firmware you need to perform a backup or use a RUU according to your fastboot getvar all command (more precise to your current firmware, CID and MID), as you are still S-ON. Once done this you can take all available OTA to update ROM and firmware. Only after this you could flash TWRP and an actual Android 6 based Custom ROM. Only way to update your firmware to the latest one, and flash a Custom ROM right after it, would need S-OFF.

you have to go to latest firmware through OTA. as your device is a rare one. can't find a mm ruu for it (6.12.114.4). but you can update step by step through OTA. later you can install a custom rom.
1) restore 4.19.114.2 TWRP backup.
2) flash 4.19.114.2 stock recovery.
3) check update & install.

I haven't seen any issues posted about running MM ROMs with LP firmware, and in fact I've been doing it for over 9 months now. In fact, MM ROMs will likely work fine on the OPs phone.
Its not like when folks were trying to run LP ROMs on KK firmware (or MM ROMs with KK firmware, for that matter) which would result in broken WiFi and/or extreme slow boot/no boot. It seems not much was changed in the MM firmware.
But you are correct, in that having the most up to date firmware is best for ROM compatibility.

Yeah it was referring to my experiences an the M8 and M9 having long boot up times cause by some little issues between ROM base and firmware. To avoid such problems I always flashed the latest firmware, so I won't run into such kind of problems, just to make sure. Thanks for the heads up.

2. Download the nandroid backup that I linked above and make a restore of boot and system only, keep your data
3. Reboot to fastboot and fastboot flash stock recovery, linked above too
4. Reboot - check for OTA, download and select install
5. Let the system do its stuff, once complete you'll be on 4.4.4 version 3.32.707.9 with all your data intact

So ... do you really want to convert your device to EU version as you've changed the MID ? Don't want to stick to your original MID and do what I said above ?
If yes ... the step still the same but slightly different as you need to wipe all data
All you need is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54953139&postcount=1674
So :
1. Make sure you have latest TWRP version installed
2. Download the nandroid backup that I linked above and make a restore of boot, data and system
3. Reboot to fastboot and fastboot flash stock recovery, linked above too
4. Reboot - run the steup wizard then check for OTA, download and select install
5. Let the system do its stuff, once complete you'll be on 4.4.4 version 3.28.401.6 then agan OTA to 3.28.401.9

[Q] HTC M8 (Three UK) - Return to stock help please

Hello,
Apologies in advance for what is probably a dumb (and often repeated) question, but I'm hoping someone can sanity-check this before I attempt it as I am a bit confused around the version numbers mainly.
I have previously had Samsung Galaxy devices (S2, S3 and S4), all of which I regularly flashed with custom ROMs, but while I am delighted to be a HTC owner, the flashing process is very different.
I have a HTC One M8 from Three (UK) and am S-On; I followed the sticky guides originally to unlock the bootloader (using the code from HTC) and then installed the Venom ViperOneM8 (currently 3.2.1).
I am trying to return to stock so that I can update to the latest VenomRom based on Lollipop; I know there are inevitably a lot of questions about this so I appreciate anyone's assistance.
The output from my FastBoot getvar all is as follows:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.21.21331147A1.19_2G

I understand that I need to return to stock, and with S-On the way this is achieved is via a restore of a Nandroid backup and recovery, followed by multiple OTA updates to bring me up to the latest version.
My issue is that there are only 2 available links for firmwares with the "H3G" CID (one for PhilzTouch and another for TWRP; I have TWRP), in ExocetDJ and Soldier9312's thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376) and these are completely different that my currently installed version (i.e. I have 3.32.771.3 installed, and the TWRP version is 1.12.771.17).
Is this the correct firmware backup I need (albeit a much older version - 4.4.2 rather than my current 4.4.4)? I have also picked up the corresponding recovery file (stock+recovery+1.12.771+recovery.img) from the same thread, so assuming the firmware is correct then is this the right one too?
If these are correct, I then need to follow the guide to restore the Nandroid backup (copy the extracted files to the correct location on the ext-SD card, flash the boot.img from that backup, full wipe from recovery, restore Nandroid backup), and that should leave me with a stock ROM.
Can someone please confirm the above?
Many thanks in advance
Don't go with 1.x version, you'll get stuck with no wifi. You only can go one version lower 2.x or same version 3.x

Just to clarify, I assume that the version 3.32.771.10 in your post newer than my current version 3.32.771.3?
Therefore I would be better off using the 2.22.771.5 one.
You should be fine using 3.32.771.10 if available (plus I think the Lollipop OTA requires this version to update)

ok, thanks chap; i'll give it a shot.
I can always restore a Nandroid of my current firmware (taken before I start) if it goes tits-up
Thanks for the help guys.
I ran through the process last night with relatively little drama and I'm now running Lollipop and Venom 4.0.0.
Much appreciated as always.

WiFi issues since version 5.0

Hello,
Two months ago I upgraded my android version to 5.0.1, since then wifi problems start to appear.
There are two problems:
1) When the phone is sleeping, the wifi disconnect. once I wake the phone, even if it still locked, the wifi turns on again after 1 second. (I checked the advanced settings and "keep wifi on during sleep" is on "always").
2) Once I go from the wifi zone and come back after a while, I can't connect to the wifi. it just keep scanning, and when I tap on it to see available networks it just shows white page (switching wifi on and off doing nothing).
This problem can be solve by turning airplane mode on and off, but it only helps for one time - once I go away and come back to the same wifi zone I need to do it again.
*I tried factory reset, doesn't help.
*I flashed another rom, from HD revolution to ViperOne, and now my android version is 5.0.2, doesn't help.
*This problem happens in every router, not only in a specific one.
Maybe going back to the stock recovery will solve the problem, but I don't think so.
Thanks in advance

Your android version is software version but not firmware version. You can't update your firmware by flashing ROMs.
Post your fastboot getvar all (delete serial & imei no.) then maybe that getvar info will point to your actual problem.

Your radio low version suggest that you have a 3.x firmware installed, not 4.x which is required for 5.0.x android version.
Here is the latest RUU for your device version : http://dl3.htc.com.s3.amazonaws.com...G_20.68.4196.01_F_release_446501_signed_2.exe
Relock bootloader & run RUU.
Later you can re-unlock bootloader and install any custom ROM that you like

Later you can re-unlock bootloader and install any custom ROM that you like

I'm pretty new to all this, so I'll be glad to have some explanation.
What's "ruu"? And how do I relock the bootloader?
What's the difference between Android version and firmware version?
I need to wipe something before I run ruu?
You think this is what cause the Wi-Fi problems?
Thank you!
Here is a good read for you : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52484527
relock bootloader - run command fastboot oem lock (after you put your device in bootloader/fastboot mode and connect to PC)
No need to wipe anything - the RUU will remove all and replace everything with the latest images - data, system, firmware and ROM
Your wifi problem as mentioned earlier because your firmware is old and has old radio baseband and not meet the minimum requirement for Android 5.0..x
An important note : after you done the RUU thing, to install custom ROM or to root, you need to install latest TWRP 2.8.7.0
Don't use the old TWRP recovery that you have .. as seen in your getvar all, there are a few missing info because of outdated TWRP

Ok the status changed to "relocked" instead of "unlocked", now just run the ruu? is there any command or something?
edit: I need to gain s-off first?
sorry for all the questions, I don't want to damage the device

It's harder to help when you ask all non-related stuff. I don't mention anything about S-Off because it is not necessary.
I know your device is S-on, that's why I said relock bootloader
Only two steps :
relock bootloader - run comman fastboot oem lock
run RUU - right click the RUU and select run as administrator on windows context menu
What you need :
USB2.0 on PC
Latest HTC USB driver installed - if not sure, download HTC Sync Manager - http://www.htc.com/us/support/software/htc-sync-manager.aspx
install it as it will install the latest driver then uninstall the HTC Sync Manager but leave the drivers.

RELOCKED is fine to run the RUU (as is LOCKED). UNLOCKED is the only status for that particular flag that prevents RUU.
You don't need s-off to RUU.
I relock the bootloader and run the ruu and now the wifi is working fine!
Thank you very much for your help!

First - edit your post to remove serial & imei no.
Your baseband version suggest that you have a 3.xx.xxxx.x firmware installed.
You need a 4.xx.xxx.x firmware to have a working wifi when install a lollipop ROM.
What device that you have ? 0P6B16000 can be a Canadian device and some South American device. Update your firmware to the one meant for your device version.
My is Canadian device. I couldn't find a ruu version of device

There is no RUU available for Canadian device. At least tell what it is .. Rogers, Bell, Telus or ??? You can try to find a nandroid backup and stock recovery, restore then do OTA to update to the latest.
Or .. as your device is S-Off, you can change it WWE device i.e change MID to EU MID then install EU RUU.

As I mentioned above try find a backup for device.
You need 3.34.631.4 and its stock recovery.
I already switch off my PC and in bed. Not sure whether I have those files in my collection.
I'll check tomorrow when I have time but try to find it first. Should be available.

WiFi issues since flashing latest ARHD

I followed the instructions fine and never hit a snag, upgrading from Android 4.4.4 stock but rooted to the latest ARHD running Android 5.0.1. I'm not sure if the issue is related to the lollipop update or the rom but once my phone screen locks I lose my WiFi connection. I can go into WiFi and see the available networks, select my one and click connect but nothing happens, the only way to get WiFi working again is to restart the phone which is becoming really frustrating. I have tried forgetting the network then re adding it too but the issue remains. Anyone else had this problem or know of a fix?
On a less annoying note when iIstart up it first acts like it's loafing bootloader with the red text at the bottom of the screen then restarts itself and boots fine.

Your HTC is WWE and your bootloader is at 3.19 so i suggest to restore a stock backup from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3086860
Take the 4.16.401.10, that will work. And if you also put back the stock recovery you can also perform official OTA updates.
READ the opening post very carefully as its very good explained !

Im now back to stock, running the latest firmware - no more updates available and though it was fixed but the wifi has just dropped out and had to restart to get it back (I can see the network it just will not connect). Does this mean it is a Lollipop issue?

Post the current getvar all.
Also, you should delete the serial number from your last getvar all (and the new one, of course) as that is personal info.
You may need to OTA again. I think some OTAs had WiFi broken, even on fully stock devices; and it was fixed on a subsequent OTA.
If you restore a backup 4xx10 and made Ota to 4xx13 he did not update the firmware. Must restore the backup 3xxx and make ota. This will solve the problems with wifi.

I was thinking along those lines (why I asked for updated getvar data) as the radio number indicates 3.xx firmware.
But I am surprised up updated at all, with the improper (old) firmware.
I do not see any other reason malfunction wifi, in addition to hardware failure.
The last ota was not large, so it may be that it could be downloaded. Let's wait author may write off something that already everything is running or not

[Q] Need to update?

Hello,
With the release of new firmwares for our M8, I am a little bit lost with the versions
Currently, my M8 have the following setup:
HBOOT-3.19.0.0000
RADIO-1.25.214500021.06G
OpenDSP-v48.2.2-00564-M8974_F0.1211
As I am using Android 6 GPe H10 ROM (but I don't exclude to reinstall a Sense ROM), maybe a new firmware (Bootloader, Radio, etc...) exist and is adviced to install?
Many thanks in advance!
Is there an OS number listed on the bootloader screen, or is it blank?
Do fastboot getvar all (if you know how) and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number).
Indeed, there is no OS version in the "OS-" field

Yes, the blank main version and SuperCID (11111111) does make it hard to determine your CID and main version. Unfortunately, model number 0P6B10000 (Euro version) has quite a few unbranded and branded CIDs (and main versions) associated with it.
On the other hand, you are already using an Android 6 ROM, and updating the firmware would probably have minimal (if any) benefit. I'm using the Developers Edition Sense Marshmallow ROM, and haven't even bothered to update to MM firmware. Despite the fact that I fully know what my main version and CID are, and can pretty easily update it. MM runs fine on the LP firmware, so I haven't felt the need to update.
Originally, my CID was ORANG203 but I replaced it to SuperCID in order to don't be bothered by flashing
However, thanks for telling me that upgrading the firmware will not add any benefits to my M8, so I will let it "as is"

You sure about the CID? I don't see it on the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
And the thread seems to be pretty comprehensive, in my experience (at least for Euro CIDs).
You're right, it was ORANG202
I have found back the log of the operation

Don't see that CID on the thread either. If it was a known CID ( with files on the linked thread) the process to update the firmware if you chose to do so would be to restore the stock 4.xx nandroid corresponding to your CID, restore the stock recovery, then OTA update to install the Marshmallow firmware.
But as already discussed, if everything is working fine, there is very little (if any) reason to update the firmware at this time.
Thanks for the advice, so I will not update anything if nothing new or nothing will be improved

Some would say, as a general rule its usually best for your firmware to correspond with your software (ROM).
But my phone has been working perfectly running Marshmallow ROM on LP firmware. So I have to assume the changes are very minor. And if you have had a similar experience, I don't see a compelling reason to change, either. Especially if the stock nandroid collection doesn't have files listed for your CID/version number anyway (although if you like, you could ask ckpv5 if he has access to them and could post - he's pretty amazing that way). Basically, if you don't have the stock ROM and stock recovery, or alternately the RUU or signed firmware.zip for your version; there is no way to update, anyway.
