So, I got notification saying the new update is ready, I downloaded it clicked OK, rebooted the phone and said entering the recovery but it went directly to TWRP recovery ( previously I have unlocked bootloader and rooted my system and installed custom recovery)
So my question is how do I install this latest update ?

Not wanting to hijack the OP, but I'm trying to install update version 3.28.401.6 on an unlocked UK M8 and I'm in the exact same boat. I heard that the stock recovery for the M8 is different for different providers, so not sure now feasible it is to restore stock recovery to receive the OTA, then go back to TWRP. Is there a way to manually install the update using TWRP?

So you title the thread with your own solution as well. "Cannot install update due to recovery change..." How do I install this update? "
Obviously it would mean you have to have stock recovery, not twrp.
Flash a stock recovery, reboot, install OTA update. Custom recovery can then be reflashed after the update

Is there any way to install the eye update from twrp itself ?
This is an update file right, like zip where we can flash from twrp ?
The thing is I cannot find the stock recovery for my model 2.23.118.3
Edit : Found stock recovery of my phone
Huge thanks to @vm54 fore uploading it

If flashing stock recovery is too much of a hassle perhaps you shouldn't have started flashing in the first place, yes?
You won't be able to do OTA over TWRP, even the TWRP developers said as much.
Official Updates and TWRP
Excerpt: Installing official updates from your manufacturer or carrier is not supported by TWRP.
Period.
As for the stock recovery you need. Just copy the OTA.zip file to your PC and extract the recovery.img file within the firmware.zip file.

Yes, the main reason I unlocked my bootloader ..... was just for HK mod but then only I realized that my phone is S-ON and S-OFF is only possible using sunshine.
Ok now I have the recovery.img file for my phone.
What should I do with it ?
Using hassoon2000's toolkit select 'your own recovery' and flash that's it ?
And one more question my CIDnum is t-mob009
Does that mean my mobile is tmobile based ?
In my place we have only two carriers and we don't have tmobile,sprint or verizon here.
EDIT : @mroshaw I hope you got your answer from the post #6
EDIT 2 : @BerndM14 just flashed the stock recovery and updated my phone and happy with it
Thanks for helping me mate
Good Luck
Awesome, good stuff. This will definitely help me out too.
Can I ask one quick follow up - where on the phone is OTA.zip stored? I have Root Explorer so just a matter of knowing where to look.

Hey I am also looking for this....on a side note are you looking for this because of wifi issues? has anyone found a fix?...pretty bummed wifi is not working on this thing

I doubt that any stock rom will flash with twrp recovery....in the past with oppo phones (n1, 7a) its always needed stock recovery to flash stock roms...I guess we just play the waiting game until someone can upload the boot image from the updated rom. I'm pretty sure flashing that alone will get wifi back up and running. 07 Or if someone has the stock recovery they could upload....I am unsure if you can just rip it directly out of the rom and flash it....Also on oppo forums they have posted the rom for 5207 I am also unsure if you can flash that to the 5206.
The zip in that thread is images to flash in fastboot?
...
I would think you would have to flash each image individually.... system, boot, recovery ....unless if we start by flashing only the unmodified boot.img to see if it will fix wifi....but i doubt it because i suspect the wrong boot image is what screwed up wifi in the first place...someone please correct me if im wrong

Yes, you're right; the boot image is not compatible with the upgrade; so downgrade to get root. I'm working on trying to upgrade again with the OTA upgrade and then getting the new boot.img and rooting that. More soon I hope!
FYI I tried your images, Lum_UK and found that I couldn't flash boot.img with fastboot, BUT I could dd them from within recovery, so I got myself up and running again.
Yes you'd have to flash all the images by hand one after the other.

Thanks for that, though I haven't tried it yet. Can I ask what it changes? Is it worth the upgrade? My original firmware +root seems to work pretty well already so I may well leave it alone until L or CM comes out.

I have no idea what it changes as it's the firmware my International N5706 was shipped with when it was released last week. It may be different to the US model (though I believe the only difference between the two is the baseband) and is definitely different to the N5707 for Chinese users.
Dude, thanks!!! You saved my life!

Hey there Liam.
Thanks for the reply.
I've been to that site often, but they don't have the ruu for 1.40.771.1, only 1.32.771.6 and 1.32.771.15; and from what I understand I cant flash a recovery that doesn't match my current SW number.
I'd also be interested to learn how to extract the recovery from an RUU. I tried searching last for instructions, but to no avail.
Cheers.

If you can't find the stock recovery you want, (and you want it so that you can flash an OTA update), you can always extract it from the OTA update zip once the update downloads to your device.
The OTA update will flash with the recovery that comes with the update. For example, say you are on 1.32.771.6 (random number) and you receive an OTA update for upgrading to 1.40.771.1 -- the OTA update will be able to install itself with a 1.32.771.6 stock recovery or with a 1.40.771.1 stock recovery, and the update comes with the 1.40.771.1 recovery.
To extract if from the OTA update zip, all you have to do is open the zip up with the latest version of 7zip, and pull out the recovery.img file.

You should be able to flash the recovery using fastboot. And I don't think you need to lock the bootloader to accept the update. (You need to make sure that you have a stock system partition though...)

Cool cool.
I think I have flashed back to stock recovery.
When I rebooted into recovery after flashing I had a black screen with a red exclamation triangle on it.
Is that correct?
Cheers.
Hmmmmm, OK, I decided to see if the OTA update would take, so began the process.
The phone booted into recovery, the update started, then about 10% into the update the phone went to the red exclamation triangle screen.
The phone eventually rebooted itself and the update hasn't taken, (I'm still on 5.0.2).
BUT I have a working phone, so there's that!
Any thoughts on what may have happened?

The first part of the update is just a bunch of checks to ensure that you are fully stock. Are you sure you are fully stock? Did you have root at any point? Did you mount /system as read/write at any point?

You need to restore a backup of /system from BEFORE you had root. When you got root, you wrote to the system partition, which means it's no longer stock.

Well, bugger.
I believe the only way to go back to full stock would be to run an ruu then, is that correct?

I have the T-Mobile HTC 10. I never converted it to US unlocked or anything. When I got it, I unlocked the bootloader, installed custom recovery (TWRP) rooted it, and slapped on a custom ROM (LeeDroid). I have a nandroid backup of my stock rom. I'm still S-ON.
Now I find out that T-Mobile has FINALLY pushed the firmware update. How I can easily upgrade the firmware on my phone?
What I tried was to backup my leedroid, restore my stock rom, and then take the update. But I got the corrupt file error.
No idea what to do now. I saw someone had a file of the OTA update (downloaded it), but I don't know what to do with that, or even if I can as I have S-ON.
How can I easily get to rocking the new firmware on my T-Mobile HTC 10?
Thanks!!

Everything worked great until actually applying the OTA update in recovery. It wouldn't do it, saying the update was for PMEWL devices, and mine is PMEUHL. I definitely tried to use your OTA update file that you posted in another thread. Any idea what this is all about? (Seems WL is a reference to another phone, maybe US unlocked. So perhaps this is the OTA for US unlocked, not T-Mobile US? Or it's really for TMO DE?).

Yea I was gonna ask.
It might make a difference being s-on but wondering if u tried to update firmware from the signed firmware?
I was running into issues flashing the Ota but eventually managed to to get it to work. Here's exactly what I did.
Place the Ota file on the root of an SD card.
On your PC, Pull the recovery image from the firmware zip within the t-mobile OTA file and place in the ADB folder.
In twrp, go to Mount, and mount system as read only.
Then, select Restore and go to your untouched system backup. The only two options that should be checked are System IMAGE and Boot.
Reboot to Download
Flash the stock recovery pulled from the OTA.
Reboot to Bootloader, then boot to Recovery
Select install from SD card and select the Ota file.
For me, it did seem to hang at "patching system" or something like that, but be patient. It did complete loading.
Hope this works for you

Than i still have twrp installed.. (Tried this a long time ago..) and than i cant install the ota.. Is there a zip with the original recovery..? Retue
My recommendation usually is not to flash twrp at all. Just use fastboot boot when needed. Disadvantage is that you don't have it handy if you're not at your computer, and you need the cable any time you want to start twrp.
Original recovery is contained in the stock ROM archive. Just flash only recovery. You can take the command from any guide how to flash stock ROM. But you need the one that is delivered with your software version. That's why I recommend not to flash twrp, if you want to do OTA it can be a hassle to find the right original recovery.
When you flash the original ROM it will have the stock recovery which will bring back your ota ability. Stock recovery is flashed by, fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
