HTC M8 stuck in fastboot only showing RUU

Ok this is what happened.
I had the rom Android Revolution installed on my HTC M8.
Today I installed the new ROM Revolution, Android 6.0, but when I could not turn on wifi.
After searching in google found that its a MUST to update your firmware, which I have subsequently done true the PC with mini-sdk. That did not work, and now I'm stuck in fastboot. He won't let me into recovery anymore, if i chose it, he trows me back to fastboot menu

What exactly did you try to flash (full file name) and where did you get it from?
Any error messages when you tried to flash the firmware, or other outputs?

Yes, it would be signature verify fail. Its a hacked firmware (with stock recovery replaced with TWRP). You can't flash this with s-on. You can only flash signed firmware with s-on; and once its hacked, its no longer signed.
Additionally, its not the right version number for your CID. It would need to have "161" in the place of "401".
Your best bet is probably to return to full stock nandroid 2.22.161.6 and stock recovery 2.22.161.6, than OTA up to LP or MM. Instructions and required files here:

You need to unlock the bootloader again, in order to flash custom recovery.

Big relief i am in recovery again!
Actually back in my Android Revolution Rom , but without WIFI
Don't want to do anyting wrong again right now.
So next thing to do is folow the steps from your posted link #5?
Or do i have to do other things now?

You have to follow all the steps through Step 14.
Again, the goal is to return to full stock nandroid 2.22.161.6 and stock recovery 2.22.161.6, than OTA up to LP or MM

Can't get true this step:
6(a). Reboot, connect device to PC then
open Internal Storage - TWRP/BACKUPS/SerialNo./ (if backup is set to internal storage)
open SD Card - TWRP/BACKUPS/SerialNo./ (if backup is set to MicroSD)
6(b). For those with no OS, connect device to PC. In TWRP recovery go to mount, make sure MTP is enabled.
Then you can open Internal Storage - TWRP/BACKUPS/SerialNo./ (if backup is set to internal storage)
If i make a backup from Boot he puts is in internal store TWRP/BACKUPS/SerialNo./ but when i copy the unzip files he stops, too big.
solution might be: Are you mounting the MTP in recovery mode ? It won't work this way.
You need to transfer them on a working OS (I mean you have to be on homescreen)
Try use an external sdcard.
I have put an external sdcard inside, i can put the files on the card
But then the files aren't located at the TWRP/BACKUP map.
What to do?

when you select boot to backup, you can select which storage the backup goes to .. select microSD instead of internal (read all menu in the backup section on TWRP)
then you can use a card reader to mount your microsd to PC and transfer the extracted contents of the backup zip to the same folder that you made with the boot backup and replace all files when PC ask you.

All done, back in stock rom, thank you very much!!
10. In reboot menu select bootloader (when TWRP asks whether you want to root your device, select do not install)
I choose in this step do not install, but he rebooted me direct into the stock rom.
Tried some things to get into the bootloader again, volume down and power, cmd with adb fastboot, but nothing really worked.
What's the reason i can't get back to bootloader, and how do i get step 11 fixed and flash stock recovery?

To go to bootloader when on OS running ... press power button and select restart. When the screen turn black .. hold volume down button .. that will take you to hboot screen, press power once will get you to fastboot/bootloader
To go to bootloader when on OS running ... you need to enable USB debugging in settings - Developer options. To enable Developer options, go to settings - about - software information - more - click build number until the developer options is enabled.
Once usb debugging is enabled, you can run command adb reboot bootloader to get to fastboot/bootloader

It works, did the last step:
11. fastboot flash stock recovery that you downloaded - command fastboot flash recovery x.xxx.xx.x_recovery.img
but now can't entering recovery anymore, just showing a red trangle with an exclamation mark? And in some minutes he boots to OS.
Have to do step 1 again? Maybe go to a higher version? I want OTA to MM 6.0

You don't need to get into recovery after you installed stock recovery.
what you need to do ... boot to OS .. go to settings - about - software update - check for update, download and click install let the system do its stuff to update. After reboot, repeat the checking & install process.
And you need to do the checking & install, multiple times to update :
2.22.161.6 --> 4.19.161.2 --> 4.19.161.3 --> 6.12.161.4 --> done.

Fastboot

I need to unselect fastboot in my settings, but my phone wont even turn on pass the htc logo. Can someone please help me?

You don't really need to unselect "Fast boot" in settings. Its not even an option in Settings anymore in Lollipop or Marshmallow.
Even if you are still on Kitkat (few people are) the only thing that "Fast boot" affected, is that it prevented booting into bootloader from a power-off condition. But if you force a reboot (which is distinctly different from power-off), you can still get to bootloader:
1) Hold power + vol up until phone reboots (may take a minute or more, if you are stuck on the HTC logo screen)
2) Once the screen goes dark to reboot (but before the HTC logo screen comes back up) let go of the buttons, and hold only the vol down button. Don't let go of vol down, until you see the bootloader screen.
3) If it didn't work, you just didn't get the timing right. You either started pressing vol down too late, or let go too early. Just repeat steps 1 & 2 above until you get it right.

Thank you for help. I already unlock my m8(by HTC dev) and I get recovery and install from recovery superSU zip file. But i cant finished superSU parts(so I am still without s-off and root?), because my telephone still cant load android(I am still on ``HTC one`` logo). So question can I put original firmware into memory card and reinstall all system?

Many folks get fail to boot after trying to root; due to using an old SuperSU version. If the phone is on Marshmallow (Android 6), you need SuperSU 2.52 or later (2.65 is recommended as the latest stable version).
If this is the case for you (on MM and used an old version SuperSU) then flashing SuperSU 2.65 should allow the phone to boot (and with root).
You should also use current version TWRP 3.0

yes i am using TWRP 3.0.2 and superSU version is 2.65. I am still stuck on `HTC ONE logo`.

Probably your best bet is to restore a stock nandroid that matches your version.
You didn't make a backup in TWRP before rooting? You should always do that, for this very reason (in case you run into problems and need to restore).
For more specific help on what version, do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).

Its not clear, were those the versions you used to begin with, or you tried them after my recommendation?

I tried those versions before your recommendations.

after several tryings, telephone trying load. I mean 'Android is starting optimizing app 21 of 133'

And still after optimizining stuck on ``green HTC``...even i can regulate sound, but this is it.

Not firmware but a RUU zip.
Note : MUST relock bootloader
Boot to fastboot/bootloader mode then run command in terminal
fastboot oem lock
What you need :
1. a MicroSD
2. Download the 6.12.401.4 RUU zip - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960687057
3. Rename the file to 0P6BIMG.zip (that's a zero not "O")
4. Put the 0P6BIMG.zip on your microSD
5. Boot your device to bootloader/fastboot then select hboot, it will scan the update zip and ask whether to update - volume up to select yes
6. Let it do its stuff
7. Once completed, reboot
8. Delete the 0P6BIMG.zip on your microSD (or remove the microSD)
9. done

I to do relock, but still cant find right file in microSD card...why? I check several time of file name...

And now telephone cant even load himself, recovery etc. How to back from RELOCKED?

Having the bootloader unlocked or not (relocked, locked) , has nothing to do with it finding the file. It will find it either way (but fail to install if bootloader is unlocked).
You sure you named the file properly (first character is "zero" not letter "O")?
Also, make sure you turned off the Windows option to hide file extensions (which is ON by default). Otherwise, you may have named it 0P6BIMG.zip.zip and not know it.

Soft brick, signature error when flashing rom

Hi there ,
I'm having some troubles with flashing a new rom into my HTC M9.
Last week HTC "tried" to install android 7 via the automatic update in my phone. For some reason (might be because I bought my phone abroad) the installation failed and my phone booted back to its OS. I paid no attention to it (Wasn't that eager to upgrade)
a few days later after I tried to restart my phone, it decided to brick (just like that) and now I can only get as far as the boot menu when turning on my phone on.
My phone is S-on , and the bootloader it locked (quite inconveniently as I came to realize) and I am able to get to Download\Recovery\bootloader mode.
I found my CID and MID and double checked that the "androind-info" file in the RUU I downloaded suits them. But I keep receiving the message "footer is wrong signature verification failed".
To add to my enormous sorrow (I'm quite attached to my phone), I am not able to mount my internal SD even after performing "factory reset" and "cache format". At first I suspected the card is damaged but when I write "fastboot getvar all" in bootloader mode I can see that the partitions exist and have an address.
For some reason "adb" doesn't recognize my phone in "adb devices" unless I'm in "sideload mode" and I'm unable to launch "adb shell" or any "adb" function that is not "adb sideload"
Also I'm not able to update my firmware (OTA) because the phone keeps complaining that the firmware version doesn't match (I searched all over the web for "more fitting" firmware but couldn't fine one that would satisfy my phone).
I searched this forum (and the web) for an answer to my problem but couldn't find a solution to my problem.
To sum things up: S-on , bootloader locked + not able to unlock it with HTC's guide , can change to Bootloader\Recovery\Download mode but that's all (No custom recovery mode) , internal sd wouldn't mount though external sd would, "signature verification error" when trying to update my RUU.
Here is what "fastboot getvar all" gives me:

Hi there ,
I'm having some troubles with flashing a new rom into my HTC M9.
Last week HTC "tried" to install android 7 via the automatic update in my phone. For some reason (might be because I bought my phone abroad) the installation failed and my phone booted back to its OS. I paid no attention to it (Wasn't that eager to upgrade)
a few days later after I tried to restart my phone, it decided to brick (just like that) and now I can only get as far as the boot menu when turning on my phone on.
My phone is S-on , and the bootloader it locked (quite inconveniently as I came to realize) and I am able to get to Download\Recovery\bootloader mode.
I found my CID and MID and double checked that the "androind-info" file in the RUU I downloaded suits them. But I keep receiving the message "footer is wrong signature verification failed".
To add to my enormous sorrow (I'm quite attached to my phone), I am not able to mount my internal SD even after performing "factory reset" and "cache format". At first I suspected the card is damaged but when I write "fastboot getvar all" in bootloader mode I can see that the partitions exist and have an address.
For some reason "adb" doesn't recognize my phone in "adb devices" unless I'm in "sideload mode" and I'm unable to launch "adb shell" or any "adb" function that is not "adb sideload"
Also I'm not able to update my firmware (OTA) because the phone keeps complaining that the firmware version doesn't match (I searched all over the web for "more fitting" firmware but couldn't fine one that would satisfy my phone).
I searched this forum (and the web) for an answer to my problem but couldn't find a solution to my problem.
To sum things up: S-on , bootloader locked + not able to unlock it with HTC's guide , can change to Bootloader\Recovery\Download mode but that's all (No custom recovery mode) , internal sd wouldn't mount though external sd would, "signature verification error" when trying to update my RUU.
Here is what "fastboot getvar all" gives me:
In bootloader mode:

Download the 4.14.401.7 ota from flappy's thread and drop in on your external sd card.
Reboot your phone in to recovery and choose the option to apply the ota from external.
My missus's m9 wouldn't move from the splash screen after the official ota tried to install and this is how I fixed it.

Thanks for the quick reply. When I try to update the OTA from SD card I receive the message
"system partition has unexpected contents"
"E:Error in /sideload/package.zip"
I used the OTA
OTA_HIMA_UHL_N70_SENSE80_MR_HTC_Europe_4.14.401.7-3.35.401.32_release_490770.zip
that corresponds to my MID and CID
Any ideas ?

Fastboot is bootloader and download mode. Adb is recovery mode.
Rename the update to 0PJA10000 (zero, p, j, a, one, zero, zero, zero, zero). Transfer it to your phones internal sd via adb while the phone is in recovery mode (not download mode or bootloader), at the very first level of the memory (not in any folders at all, just in the sd itself) and reboot again to recovery.
It should auto flash.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I am unable to access my internal memory in "recovery mode" (or in general) and my only indication that it still works is the "fastboot getvar all" I posted in my root comment. adb doesn't recognize my phone in any mode other than "sideload mode" so I cannot "push" the file into my sd card. Renaming the file on my computer doesn't provoke auto flash when entering "recovery mode" but maybe it's because I cannot restart into recovery mode, only boot into "bootloader mode" and there use the "Boot To Recovery Mode" option.
Sorry for being so difficult, kinda tried not to mess up with it but it bricked nevertheless 0_o

Remove the pc adb drivers, put the phone into recovery mode and THEN connect it to the pc. Hopefully it should install the correct drivers. Failing that google "manually adding physical addresses to drivers". This involves editing the .cat file prior to installing the driver.
Your only other option other than that is the ruu.exe and I'm not sure if one exists yet.

Hi , thanks for the reply. I tried to do what you suggested but neither my Windows nor my Ubuntu recognize my HTC when in recovery mode (outside "sideload" mode), guessing it's because I never enabled "USB debugging".
Moreover, I searched one more time for any Rom that could fit my phone , unfortunately I cannot find any .exe rom that fits my CID + has a version higher than 2.*
Wrote to HTC (though I doubt it would do anything) ... Are there any motivational words about not throwing out this phone and buying a new one ? I'm am quite convinced that the problem is in the software, but the way I see it now , HTC locked the phone quite strong \=

Try taking the sd card out and putting it on the sd card that way?

Hi , thanks for the reply. Not sure what you mean. I don't have any access to my internal sd card , so to apply your suggestion I had to pull out my ext. sd card and move the file to it via my computer, and only after that connect the ext. sd back it. The message I receive from my phone when trying to install the firmware is what I wrote earlier

You do have access to an sd card, physically. Apologies if I wasn't clear, but I've not come across any instance of anyone taking out their built in storage! So you did indeed apply my suggestion correctly.
And if that's the message you get, I can't help any further. All the best.

please any ideas??????????

First, we need to know more about your device.
You need adb and fastboot installed(I recommend Minimal ADB & Fastboot if you don't have already), HTC Drivers.
Put your phone in download mode and do "fastboot getvar all" remove imei/sn from output and post here.

I can't find a ruu for your phone.
Try to unlock bootloader, flash twrp and flash any marshmallow based sense custom rom.
Your only way to revert to full stock is s-off.

hi is it possible to unlock bootloader from adb in download mode or twrp? is it possible to get soff in this mode?
i have the correct rru but i tryed to flash from sd
so i renamed the rru to opjaimg.zip
i get to flash menu press vol up to start flash
start ui_updating
it just goes back to bootloader

this is the rru i got

Hello,

Recovery mode is broken , i'm able to enter into download mode, but when i want to flash a zip file i have problems to enter into RUU Mode because it is in a bootloop after i give the command "htc_fastboot oem rebootRUU" , it means the phone attempts to enter into RUU mode but it keeps just restarting in the black screen with htc Logo for 2 -3 sec.
can annybody pls tell me what can i do to repair the RUU mode?
