Hello everyone. Since the Title has character limit im gonna have to explain myself here better.
Ive had my HTC One M8 for 4 years now. Pretty much since it came out in 2013. I installed ARHD back in 2014 and its been working just fine ever since. A couple of months ago i decided to go back to 45.0. Everything went smooth and everything works just fine.
But a week ago the phone decided to just go woopdido and it wouldnt open up any apps in Playstore although i could still see them. So i tried to restart it and when i did it got stuck at the HTC Logo. I tried to restart it a few times but it kept getting stuck. I was super confused due to the reason that i havent really done anything with my phone besides since the day i installed ARHD 45.0. I got desperate so i reinstalled it but this time with 53.1 and that went fine too except for one fishy thing and that was that i remember before when installing ARHD, when it got 30% it wouldnt take 2-3 minutes for it to finally start installing the ROM. It would take a couple of seconds for it to start right away and be done.
After installing 53.1 phone worked just as fine except for the fact that it was slower than it has ever been before. Which was also weird. Either way. After a couple of hours of it working, setting up every app i needed i restarted it and again it was stuck at the HTC Logo. Welp i guess..
So after that crap i went back to 45.0 again. It went good and all except it keeps getting stuck at 30% for a while but whatever. Going back to 45.0 though didnt help. Keeps repeating the same crap after a while. After a restart when having the phone doing nothing for hours gets it stuck at HTC Logo again. I literally cannot do anything with it atm and i have no clue how to go further from here as i have not had this before.
I did another reinstall of 45.0 just now and this time i also wiped the System, Data all that which ive never done before hoping that it actually helps.
The HTC One M8 is rooted. S-Off everything you really need. The current TWRP version i have is 3.1.1.0.
Update: Apparently after reinstalling any version of ARHD and then updating SuperSU breaks the phone. Any ideas?

I just got a new Evo yesterday from having my old one replaced due to screen seperation.
So my Evo Android 2.2 and all the newest OTA on it..
Before my Evo was rooted running CM6 and life was great. Now I can't get the thing unrooted with Unrevoked 2.3.1 and can't find a new method with the Evo I have now with all the newest OTA..
Any suggestions on what to do so I can get this awful HTC Sense off my phone A.S.A.P..
Thanks so much to every one in advance.
Your sure that it didn't work because its not like the old days were it flashed and engineered version. When the phone reboots it will have the same ROM as it did when you started the process. Only the stock ROM will be rooted. I'm sure you checked to see if it has ClockworkMod recovery on it now. I just rooted a EVO I received two days ago it worked fine.
on unrevoked it says that it failed and say it happens some times and to try again.
I tried about 5 times this morning and it failed every time.
power down pull the battery spin in a circle three times while chanting unrevoked will revoke the carriers attempt to prevent me from rooting. Then try again!
ok so really the battery part is the only part that you HAVE to do but the rest is still kinda fun. My friend had this problem and whether it was coincidence or not pulling the battery and then putting it back seemed to do the trick first time through it worked after.
Thanks.
I will give it a try when i get home from work.. Now I just have to wait 5 more hours till I get off work, durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
A battery pull did the trick..
Thanks for the help..
so here's the deal
i've been using my One X for a year or two now, half of the time with cyanogenmod on it, the other with Paranoid Android
but one day, the launcher crashed.
I rebooted it, thinking it was a temporary problem, and everything went fine for a few hours
after which multiple apps started crashing, then the launcher again.
I rebooted it again, hoping the problem would magically vanish, but my phone wouldn't boot, it'd stay on the bootloader screen
for a while now if I stood in the Phone app i'd be fine until the end of the day
since then, every time I install a ROM on my phone, it would go fine for a few hours, even a day or two, but then the problems come back, though I haven't been stuck in the bootloader since
i've tried formatting the SD card, i've tried restoring my phone from a clockworkmod backup and i've tried installing over 10 ROMs now, both sense-based and AOSP
HELP, PLEASE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ANYMORE
Ok, there are some threads with similar problem but i want to write more detailed description of this problem.
I was running lot of rom since i get my OneX like ARHD, ViperX and other less known.
I was on ViperX for half a year without any bigger issue until i decided to flash new ARHD (33.1).
Before that i tried CM nightly release of Android 4.4 for which i needed to switch from CWM to TWRP.
So i'm now running on ARHD with TWRP (if it has something to do with problem) and i was running good first day or two. Then in school it freezes first time and wasnt responding until hard reset. Then it was working for a while and again. I wasnt taking big attention on this firstly and i just rebooted to recovery, cleared cache and dalvik (maybe for no reason, i dont know ) and rebooted back. And big SURPRISE, my phone was factory reseted (maybe i screwed something because i was paying attention on teacher). Then at home i made clear install of ARHD again.
Same story with this. Working good a while and after installing some apps it freezes, reboots aaand .... this is all.
Small observations : It never freezes or reboots from locked phone, (and i will try if it does on charger), twice it freezed with some fragments on screen like from "almost-burned" GPU on PC (once it happened in bootloader). It never rebooted from game (2048 or Hill Climb) but lot of times from Poweramp, SMS app and FB Messenger (i have suspision that it has something with keyboard) ....5 minutes ago restarted when using google maps 4 minutes from unlocking screen :/
If someone can help me i will be very thankfull
...And sorry for my (very) bad english.
Hi,
I bought my m8 international about 2 months ago. It was working fine up to now, with an occasional crash and reboot (4 times since I have it). Since yesterday evening it has crashed and restarted about 20 times. I have no idea what has changed and there seems to be no consistent reason for the crash. I tried to restore to factory settings and even clear the SD card, but on the first reboot it crashed when I was entering my sim unlock code.
I rooted all my previous phones but did not try it on this one yet, so it is completely stock.
Is there a way to find out what is causing the crashes without having root?
thanks for your replies.

I take it you have updated the firmware via OTA's? I had a similar experience when I first got my M8 (a couple of weeks ago), it would reboot randomly several times a day, tried factory resetting and it didnt help. I installed the prompted OTA's and running 4.4.3 which fixed it. Was a bit annoying as I was trying to hold off updating until I seen what my options were for root/s-off etc, now I have the latest bootloader and would have to use Sunshine to s-off. Still havent rooted as everything is running great for me at the moment so happy enough.

Yeah, installed all the OTA's, but last one was a couple of weeks ago. I just double checked, but there's nothing to update at this point.

Are you getting the HTC error log messages when you boot up again, should appear as a notification? I got a few of these when mine was crashing, you can view the log if you tap into the notification. It will be a massive log, I tried copying and was going to paste to an email or doc but it wouldnt let me as there was too much data.

Yeah, I get those. As you say it's massive and not readable, at least not for me. I couldn't even manage copying it..

Your firmware may be outdated. I would think it would be, as you said you haven't installed anything to the phone since 2014.
This (old firmware) alone would play havoc with the current ROMs. And also not play well with current TWRP, which may explain why going back to ARHD 45 is still resulting in problems.
What goes it day for OS number on the bootloader screen? If blank, what are the hboot and radio numbers?
The original issue could have just be due to some damage or corruption to the OS. It happens.
Also, the phone was released in 2014, not 2013.

You missunderstood me but its all good because its on me. I was meant to say that i havent touched anything since i installed 45.0 a couple of months ago right. The firmware is fine and all for the current version i have. It was for 53.1 too.
And out of the blue it just got stuck on the HTC Logo. I tried something and it was updating the SuperSU which actually was the reason why it got stuck on the HTC Logo. I installed 2.79 and now it boots just fine and the phone is back on speed again. Apparently 2.82 has issues which is the version i assume it tried to update to through both TWRP and Playstore.

Ah, I do see now that you stated you installed ARDH 45 a couple months ago. There is a lot of info there, so I missed that part.
Glad to hear you sorted it out. It's unusual to see a simple SuperSU update cause such a chain of event; but s#it happens I suppose.

Yeah it does. I also forgot to mention that my microphone went to sh*t also. But its not because of this event. Although after this last reinstall i did the microphone picks up my voice better than it did before it went crap. But people cant still hear me when they call me
