[Q] Something Wrong with Custom ROM installation

I unlocked my bootloader and rooted my HTC One X. I have used the ClockworkMod recovery.
I had CyanogenMod 10.2 installed and it ran perfectly fine.
Later on, I downloaded the 'cm-11-20140308-SNAPSHOT-M4-endeavoru.zip' file to install the the CM 11.2
But it seems something terribly has gone wrong.
This error message was shown during installing CM 11.2
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and it got stuck on this screen after rebooting
Later on I tried flashing the 'boot.img' of CM 10.2 to get back to that ROM, but I encountered this error.
But when I tried installing the 'cm-10.2.1-endeavoru.zip', it was a success, but I am still stuck at the same position.
Please help me restoring the phone back, I dont care if I have to revert back to HTC's Original ROM, as long as the phone is back working.
I am novice at this thing, so please bear with me if I ask some stupid questions.

First of all if you want to install CM11 you must to use latest CWM from CM11 thread or TWRP2.7 or Philz latest. And now mount sd card copy your sense rom to the card install it, flash the boot img. and you are good to go. After this read again thread for CM11 and how to install and try agin but be shure you read the thread

use the recovery that thommy put in the first page of the cm11 post (or the philz last recovery) it seems that the cmw that you have doesen't support kitkat

Getting 5.x Lollipop Update on Rooted HTC ON M8 International

Hi all
Apologies if this is answered elsewhere but I cannot find any information on this for the life of me and it's driving me mad.
I have a notification stating that my 5.0 OTA update is ready but I can't install it due to the Custom Recovery on my device.
I followed this guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376) and flashed the 'stock' (not actually Stock - every link it CWM or TWRP) recovery but it didn't work and the update still fails. I think I read somewhere that something is different about this particular update.. that you need to have an 'untouched'/never rooted device?
Plllleeeeeeeeeeeeeease can someone steer me in the right direction so I can get this update sorted?
Thanks in advance.

have you made any system modifications to your current rom?
Also need CID and firmware version number
ALSO needs to be in Q&A (asked the mods to move)

Thanks for that.

ok so you have clean 3.29.401.9 stock rom installed, if not restore the nand available in my thread via TWRP. (may be best to do this as a fresh start)
Next install the 3.28.401.9 stock recovery.img from the first post in my thread.
hoprfully then u should be able to tale OTA automatically

every link is CWM or TWRP are stock Nandroid backup, not recovery.img
Look under Stock Recovery Images for the stock recovery

Thanks for your help, that seems to have done it.
The first time I didn't pay enough attention to my correct Software number (in my case 3.28.401.9). When I matched up my CID (HTC_001) I just picked a random link on that list which is why it didn't work.
Got it going now and back on custom recovery so thanks again for your assistance

You need the stock ROM (never rooted) and the stock recovery for OTAs to work.
You can find a stock TWRP backup of the ROM (change your recovery to TWRP first, obviously), and the stock recovery (for after you've flash the stock backup) in this thread.
Instructions are in the OP.

Thank you so much! I will try your solution!

Hello again, I tried to follow the instructions but I dont know which TWRP backup collection will work for my telcel (mexico) HTC m8... I am still lost at it... thank you again for your help

You need 1.12.600.20 backup which currently not available.
Make a request in my thread so I won't forget to search thru my hardisk when I'm home later. I believe I still have that 1.12.600.20 backup
Check my thread, the backup now available
Restore 1.12.600.20 backup
Install 4.32.600.2 stock recovery.img (as 1.12.600.20 recovery.img is not available)
then you can do OTA update to 4.32.600.2
The files are available at post #2 & post #4

Bricked HTC One M9 (managed to install TWRP 3.0)

Hi, forgive me if this is not the correct place for this but I am at a dead end with my struggles. I have an HTC One M9 that I managed to delete the OS & Recovery. I finally managed to get TWRP 3.0 back on it and when I try to install the OS (ViperOneM9_6.0.0) & Gapps it goes into a bootloader loop. All goes well throughout install process but I just cant get it to work. Can anyone PLEASE point me in the right direction, I've been w/o a phone for going on 3 months now.
P.S. If it helps at all it says developers edition and my carrier is MetroPCS (Tmobile)

I suspect that your firmware is out of date. Please post your OS version - that will help us know how to advise you.

Thank You. It doesn't have an OS Right now, could you be more specific about what you would need (format of the info possibly, or an example. I am fairly tech savy but have very little android internal experience)

Your OS version will come up regardless of whether you have a ROM installed. Check out the readme thread for how to use fastboot to pull the information.

HTC One M8s TWRP Install Issue.

Hello there I'm trying to flash my M8 to the LineageOS.
However when I try to boot into recovery with TWRP my phone just hangs on the HTC logo.
The bootloader is unlocked and the phone is currently on the stock OS.
I've flashed TWRP via ADB and the OneM8AllInOneKit, but still get the same issue.
My phones information is below if it helps anyone out.
Thanks for any help.

OneM8AllInOneKit won't work on your device. Anything made for M8 like twrp, LineageOS won't work on your M8s
Check here for anything that you need - https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/one-m8s-general

Use htc_fastboot, not fastboot when flash. There is twrp for m8s, look at the threads.

I've tried the htc_fastboot and got the right twrp for masrhmellow and the cwmod one also and it still hangs on boot to recovey any ideas?

There is no clockworkmod recovery for the M8s, that I know of (only for the M8, which is a different phone - different recoveries). So this leads me to believe you are still not flashing the right recoveries for the M8s; including the TWRP specifically for the M8s.

Reset

Try install stock rom and start all over again. You can find it here at xda. Can send you links later. Sitting on phone now.

Here is the link to stock rom.

Wrong version number, it doesn't match the OP's version. It will fail by version check.
He was able to get the phone working on Lineage, based on his other thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/one-m8s-general/htc-one-m8s-flash-boot-issues-t3736680
I'm guessing he had wrong version TWRP (not the one for M8s) and/or wrong LineageOS.
