Hi!
I have an M8QL O2 UK, stuck in fastboot (the previous owner, i think try to root and failed). It have no recovery (if i try recovery just restart in fastboot again, i try to unlock bootloader using HTCDev but after is restarting it just goes blank and is not unlocking so i cannot flash any type of recovery.
I managed to get this firmware 0PKV[email protected]60201_20.05_018_F_release_477134 _signed_2_4.zip
but unfortunately it give me "device halted due to large image update fail" when i try to installing from microsd and this error when i try with fastboot
D:\m8s original>htc_fastboot flash zip 0PKV[email protected]60201_20.05_018_F_release_477134_signed_2_4

As i find out from other threads this error occurred because it have an older version of Hboot, so I will need to flash first an "partial zip firmware" to update Hboot, and then the complete firmware. But i cannot find anywhere that partial zip!
Does anybody can help me find that file?
One of this i think:

Hi
I am on O2 uk and I flashed this with fastboot but my phone is unlocked.
I will give it a try but i don't think will work because is for M8 not for M8S!
Thank you anyway!

Have you seen this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ht...ral/make-custom-recovery-htc-one-m8s-t3114245
https://ruu.lalleman.net/HTC_M8S(QL...08_15.00_016_F_release_434688_combined_signed
Yes I have seen and try all of that but as I said in my post I can't install any recovery, and the firmware of my phone, if you read carefully getvar details, is newer that firmware posted on https://ruu.lalleman.net/ and it cannot be install.
Also I already said that I find the latest firmware 0PKVIMG_M8_QL_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_O2_UK_2.10.206.1_R [email protected]_20.05_018_F_release_477134 _signed_2_4.zip but because my Hboot it's old it give me the error posted on the initial post!
So please read carefully and understand all the thing written in the initial post first!
Thanks!

HBOOT BOOT LOOP (DIDN'T SEE THE AUTO CORRECT SORRY
Hello.
Last night i was following instructions to go back to stock on a TMO RUU. I had relocked my bootloader via fast boot command. After i re locked the boot loader my phone won't boot and will only loop in the Hboot screen. Anything i choose via the power button only restarts the phone to end up back at the same screen.
I tried to unlock the boot loader again via HTCdev but received this error:

Since you're S-ON, you will not be able to flash RUUs or firmware below your current ROM version. You can however restore twrp backups of Lollipop ROMs which work fine with your current 6.12 Marshmallow firmware. Otherwise, you can use twrp to flash any custom ROM based on marshmallow & lollipop.
Here's a link to stock marshmallow RUU (6.12.401.4) in zip format, which you should flash from bootloader.

I flash the twrp's recovery. I can access to it but when I try to go to install the zip file, twrp refuse to install it with "Zip file is corrupt". I double check md5 sum and they seems to be correct =( .
I also try to flash it with fastboot, just in case, and no result but with a different error: "(bootloader) zip header checking... FAILED (remote: 32 header error) "

You don't flash RUUs with TWRP, you flash them with fastboot in RUU mode. Which you seemed to know based on your top post, so I'm not sure why you tried to flash with TWRP this time.

You need to relock your bootloader to RUU with s-on.
Command: fastboot oem lock

I'm not sure which way you want to go, but:
1. To flash the RUU zip file:
A. You need to put it at the root of your SD CARD and rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip
B. Turn your phone off, then start it into bootloader.
C. Follow the instructions in RED to flash. You will lose all data as the RUU will format all partitions.
2. To install a custom ROM or restore a twrp-specific backup, use TWRP's install function, or restore function respectively.
Cheers

I'm not sure what RUUs you have tried to flash, but this is the last RUU version for your model (T-Mo Germany)
You can flash it with fastboot commands in RUU mode, or you can flash it via the SD card method.
The SD card method is easiest. Rename the .zip by deleting everything in the name of it except for 0P6BIMG (and .zip of course), put it onto your extSD, and boot to bootloader. The rest is pretty much automatic.
Note that since you are S-On, you will have to relock your bootloader first with either method. The command for that is fastboot oem lock
Good luck!
Very helpful thread. Wanted to ask for help here, but already solved the issue
I'm not sure if i'm on the right forums and this can be deleted if so, however, I have tried and tried to look for a rom that is suitable to my device. I accidently tried to flash to wrong rom, without manual awareness of what rom I actually need.
I have a HTC Desire Eye with the version number via CMD> fastboot getvar all>BOOTLOADER Version Main: 2.19.771.3.
I have literally looked everywhere. Ive been at this non stop for the last day or so. but whenever I try to flash a new rom on my device, this is the response I get.

What rom are you trying to flash?
Have you tried restoring a backup?
Do you have s-off or just unlocked bootloader?
I was originally trying to flash cyanogenmod 12 eye_ul edition. Apparently it didn't want to work. I also don't have a backup to go back on. Yes, tried with both bootloader unlocked and 6 locked, both didn't work. S-on is the security, I have no idea how to turn it off unfortunately. Thanks for the reply too
Bump
Try flashing this rom and see if it works. It's not your variant version but it should still work. What version of twrp do you have?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-eye/development/roms-official-marshmallow-desire-eye-t3334742
i'll try that now, ill let you know the outcome.
currently have TWRP_3.0.2-0-DesireEYE-OMNI recovery.
Tried that rom, sent me through bootloop... continuously
I used that TWRP_3.0.2-0-DesireEYE-OMNI recovery and then flashed ROM_STOCK_2.19.401.1_Desire_Eye_Europe. worked a dream. So basically solved my own problem
So if anyone else has this issue, here's the rom link;

Hello everyone, sorry for the post but I'm really desperate at the moment, so here it goes:
I wiped my phone up by mistake while doing a hard reset and now it's OS is gone. When I try to flash RUUs it says the HBOOT version is wrong, maybe too old. I've read a lot here in the forum but wasn't able to do it yet. I'll copy the getvar from my device down here so maybe u guys can help me out.

At what stage are you getting this message? When trying to flash the stock recovery?
If so post the results of fastboot getvar all minus your serial# and IMEI (and MEID if you have one ~ only CDMA devices do)
I think you may be trying to flash the wrong recovery for your device.

Yes, the signature verify fail error is due to relocked bootloader.
You can only install TWRP with an unlocked bootloader. TWRP is an unsigned file. By definition, you can't flash an unsigned recovery with a locked (and also relocked) bootloader. This is the very meaning and purpose of a locked bootloader.
I see... So I must unlock the bootloader again, flash and Install twrp 2.8.7.0, restore 4.24.709.3 stock backup, install 4.24.709.3 stock recovery and then relock the bootloader?
And for unlocking it I have to follow the same way for the first time? HTCdev, etc...?

That is correct. Then OTA update to Marshmallow.
Alternately, with bootloader still relocked, fastboot flash the firmware fw_6.12.709.4 using the file and instructions from here (Same thread as before, but Post #5): https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60218734&postcount=5.
Then unlock the bootloader, install TWRP 2.8.7 and restore stock backup 6.12.709.4, which will put you right on Marshmallow with no need to OTA.

You may be able to fastboot flash the unlock token you used before (but doesn't always work). Otherwise, yes, you can go through the entire HTCDev.com process and get a new token.

what about flashing the marshmallow RUU.zip ??
it's signed you need a relocked bootloader to flash it on s-on device
here is the RUU
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911967316
and here is how to flash ( but use the above RUU )

That will also work.
Okay, thank you so much! I'm at work now and don't have my phone with me, so when I arrive home I'll try this way.
Edit:
So I followed your alternate solution and successfully flashed the firmware and now the situation is like this:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.25.21331147A1.06G

Now I have to unlock the bootloader and flash twrp 2.8.7 to restore stock backup? That backup is the one in post #3, right?
Thanks a lot again!!!

Install the latest RUU as mentioned by @ahmed.ismael above. Everything will be updated in one shot.

Hi,
In my M8 (Purchased a used device )there is no option to check software update in the About section. When i googled the issue i found that RUU is the best way to fix this issue. The result after run fastboot getvar all is shown below.

You have the US Sprint version. US versions can't update OTA unless you are actually connected to that US carrier (in your case Sprint).
So therefore, yes RUU is the best way to install an "official" update.
You can find the Sprint RUUs here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2729173
You can update right to the last version (Marshmallow) 6.20.651.3 without flashing any intermediate versions. You will however need to flash the 6.20.651.3 firmware before 6.20.651.3 RUU (requirement peculiar to US Marshmallow RUUs).
Instruction on how to flash 6.20.651.3 firmware are on the same thread as the RUUs.
Keep in mind that flashing RUU will wipe the phone. So backup any data you want to keep to SD or off the phone (cloud, computer) before doing any of the steps.

It won't "fix" the issue of not getting software updates OTA. It's not so much an "issue" as it is just a fact of the US versions of the M8.
But it also doesn't matter. The RUU I suggested will put you on the last version released by HTC (Marshmallow). There have been no updates since, and there will be no more updates.
Please help - Not able to do hard reset on HTC one M8 and looking the Correct RRU

I have a HTC one M8 and it is in vicious Boot loop, sometime it go beyond the lock screen foo few minutes but reboot again. I tried to to hard reset, recovery options etc. but it did not delete any data. All the data stays same though i tired multiple times. I installed the adb utility but it does not work when I select the FASTBOOT USB mode. It only works when phone goes beyond the unlock screen for a few minutes but phone boot loop starts.
FAST boot utility works with FASTBOOT USB mode and list the device when use "fastboot devices" command.
Request you to please help to resolve this issue.
