Update HTC One M8 to Marshmallow? What RUU do I need? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I recently rooted my phone in hopes of updating to Android Marshmallow, however I can't seem to find the right ROM for it. Can someone please help? I'm fairly new to this, so I apologize in advance if there's something I forgot. Thanks in advance!

You need this RUU form HTC's website. Scroll down to Manual Update Instructions and read them. The download is at the end of the instuctions.

I downloaded the RUU and followed the instructions but Error 155 popped up and said to get the correct ROM Update Utility.

remove meid from first post
flash the firmware first
after successful firmware flashing run the RUU again
for more info read this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173

Oh, I didn't know you had to update the firmware first. Anyway, after flashing it and getting a bootloop, I managed to update to Marshmallow after installing the RUU through Hboot. Thanks for all the help, appreciate it!

That's an honest mistake; and quite understandable. Its a esoteric piece of information, and you would only know it from experience (reading it here). The requirement to flash firmware before RUU only applies to the Marshmallow RUUs (and while upgrading from LP, KK), and only for US variants. No idea why HTC did this.

Your S-Off. Do what I've done as long as you have a gsm vetsion. Change your MID to the international version, change CID to HTC__001 and run a ruu via zip for .exe. you'll get the updates then. Search the thread for how to do it. That's what I did.

I have a similar problem, even after rooting the phone, I am unable to update. And flashing custom roms does not work due to firmware issues.
I got this phone unlocked with super CID.
any help to update to any custom rom would be appreciated.

I had the same issue. I got the 4.20.531.4 RUU to run no problem. I just took the OTA when I kept getting 155 error.
No clue... has anyone installed via RUU successfully?
Same problem. Any help?

I had the same issue and screwed around with it for hours trying to figure it out. Ended up flashing this firmware: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960686131
then rerunning the RUU. Went through fine. Not saying it will work for you, but it worked for me.
I'm stock 5.0.2 with S-On and have never been rooted or unlocked the bootloader (my mother in laws phone) and I get this same error 155 when trying to use the RUU for Marshmallow that I downloaded from HTC. I think the problem is because the OTA that pops up is to prep for Marshmallow but after it installs and reboots it soft bricks the phone and I have to do a factory reset from the bootloader which causes the OTA to never finish so I'm screwed, any ideas?

Flash signed firmware 6.20.531.5 from here (instruction on how to flash at the bottom of the post), then RUU.
The post before yours has it right. But the unsigned firmware linked in that post will only work with s-off. The signed firmware I linked to will work with s-on.
Thank you so much, I'll try that!

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...

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

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.

HTC One M8 return to stock s-on

I had previously put custom crDroid 7.1.1 . I've been trying to return to stock with s-on. I've tried methods from different threads on here specifically: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/general/guide-restore-european-htc-one-m8-to-t3072235
However, when I try retrieving the rom.zip file I get an invalid message. Any suggestions?

Try using this RUU instead.
Scroll down to the Manual System Update Instructions and read them. The RUU download is at the end of the instructions.
I've tried that. Unfortunatley it doesn't work.

Doesn't work how? "Doesn't work" doesn't help me/us to figure out what your issue is and how to fix it. When you run the RUU and it doesn't work, what error message are you getting?
it says, " The ROM Update Utility cannot connect to your Android Phone. Check your usb cable......."
I have the drivers installed

Maybe you should have read to the bottom of the instructions in the link I gave you, where it says with your issue you should boot to bootloader/fastboot and run the RUU from there.

I know you fix your issue by now
But i have a question,have you relocked your bootloader before running the RUU.exe ?
Sent from my HTC M8 using XDA Labs
No I didn't

that's why the RUU didn't work for you
next time you need to use the RUU you should relock the bootloader first ( for s-on devices )
using this command
fastboot oem lock
then flash the RUU in fastboot mode ( use the same android version or higher ( for s-on devices )

i cant install update on htc one m8

hi to all .. i have htc one m8 and i root it ..i want to check if the root still ..if yes i want to unroot ..my htc version is lollipop ...plz help me
You need to restore a stock TWRP backup (stock ROM) and stock recovery in order to OTA update. See the following thread for the required files and guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Alternately, if there is an RUU for your M8 version, you can use it to update. But not all M8 versions have RUU. Do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting) if you want further advice.
EDIT: I see from your post history, that you asked this same exact question last year (and again the year before that), and I gave you the proper answer. Not sure why you feel the need to ask the same question over and over, when you've already been provided the correct answer.
If you don't understand the process, or have any specific questions about the process, then ask them. Otherwise, just asking the same question (how to return to stock for update) is just annoying.

You are on the latest version. There are no more updates. There haven't been for years now (3-4 years?).
