Restore it including the boot.img and flash back the 2.17 stock recovery afterwards
http://db.tt/U5CK4noo
Then update again in the software update menu of the phone. It will bring you back to stock 3.14 software

Hi,
I am stuck on a similar thing. Can someone please help me with the boot.img and recovery.img for the stock 2.17 please? The link you have mentioned isnt working now. My CID is O2__001 (Hboot = 1.36.0000 and S-ON). Basically what I want to do is to update to 3.14 (stock) so that I can update to the latest JB 4.2.2. Urgent help please!! :'(

Thanks virgolib!
So to flash this do I just copy it to the root of the sd card and install it through clockwork recovery? Because I tried doing this. When the firmware updated, I couldnt upgrade it to 4.2.2. Basically I got status 7 error. Am I doing something wrong?

Yes you do it by cw recovery, after installation have to flash boot.img form backup file and flash this stock recovery <<<http://d-h.st/p3X>>> and then relock bootloader and check for update and download OTA & install it.

Currently its downloading the 4.18.206.4 update. I noticed that the nanroid you gave me is a rooted version. Does this mean that it doesnt matter if the firmware is rooted for it to update through OTA?
---------- Post added at 04:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:07 PM ----------
I tried updating with the stock recovery and bootloader locked but it still failed. it failed right after the verification stage (it said applying_patch_check something). any idea what can be going wrong?

If so try with Philz_Touch recovery, you download OTA file and install it by Philz_Tuoch recovery with manually flash.

Ive never tried this recovery before. Do you have a reliable tutorial for this?

[Q] How to install Android Revolution HD

Hello,
I've been recently trying to install few times the Android Revolution HD 10.2 ROM however I always fail. Same happened with previous version.
After the ROM installs, i hit reboot and then nothing. It just freezes on the htc logo (with "developer" text) and nothing happens.
So my question is, what am I doing wrong?
I have no problems with installing ViperOne and all of the non-stock based ROMs.
I can't get S-OFF, so I hope it isn't neccessary
Please keep in mind that I'm pretty new at using HTC One m8, however I have experience with android.

If you have the HTC__001 cid or any which is WWE/ Europe you can and MUST flash the firmware.zip for 2.22.401.4 ...otherwise it won't boot or many things will be broken...all necessary things can be found in each Rom thread, how to flash things and what you need etc...Also which recovery do you use and did you flashed a few mods or so afterwards?

Ok, so I don't really know what this CID is. I've seen people talking about this but can't really tell what it is for. Is this some kind of ID a device, for which country it's meant?
You said "flash 2.22.401.4" firmware. Now I would have to find out how to do that (after I do that, will I be able to normally downgrade to 4.4.2 or will there be some problems?)
There's flashtool for Xperia's, Odin for Samsungs and is there a simillar software for HTC devices (I have something called All-In-One_Kit)?
I've seen also something like RUU, but I would need to fix fastboot, as it isn't working after fresh install of Windows.
My CID: HTC_032
Recovery: TWRP 2.7.1.0
Kernel: Unknown, the one that comes with ViperOne (Already tried flashing ARHD with elementaX kernel)
Current version of firmware: 1.54.401.5

Agreed. Messing with things like firmware, without the proper knowledge is a surefire way to brick the phone.

RUU isn't going to help you with any of this (s-off, flashing firmware packages, etc.). Its just to restore to a stock image (ROM, radio, hboot, recovery).
I really recommend you get fastboot working. You need adb/fastboot to get s-off anyway.
Toolkits are only of limited use. They don't do anything you can't do manually with a few adb or fastboot commands. And many would say if you can't handle doing these things manually, you shouldn't be messing with the phone at all.

Yeah, I would need RUU to get to stock 4.4.3.
I can't get s-off, firewater isn't working with my phone, and I don't want to choose the paid method, as I will probably soon change this device anyway.

I see what you're saying: RUU to stock, OTA to 4.4.3 to get the firmware package, then unlock bootloader again, install custom recovery and install ARHD.

Exactly, or RUU already to 4.4.3 skipping the ota.

Are there any 4.4.3 RUUs? More importantly, is there a 4.4.3 RUU for your version?

There is no ruu just system dumps/ recovery flashable zip of stock Rom
---------- Post added at 06:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:28 PM ----------
Also there is no need of using a RUU... You can just download the stock Rom zip, flash back stock kernel and stock recovery...but only if that Rom matches your cid...If not you have to take a nandroid backup from Mr hofs collection thread...

Thank You, You gave me so much information I needed to know more about this device.
I've found a link like this but I can't find my cid
So for example flashing "CID HTC__001" file would brake my device?
P.S. I'm currious what would happen if I flashed wrong CID firmware. Could You tell me more about flashing wrong one. Would it work normally, had some issues, wouldn't boot or wouldn't I be even able to flash this?
EDIT: Hehe, the link I provided is Mr hofs thread. So what now, if my CID isn't there? Can I just use any version that is for Europe, like eg. germany?
EDIT 2: Flashed stock, deodexed ROM 4.4.3, but still no luck with ARHD

If you are now s-off just get super cid with fastboot oem writecid 1111111 I hope enough ones xD or just write a cid like HTC__001 ... If you have further questions write me a pm and we can talk over hangouts or pm here... easier to follow the progress

Ok, finally got it.
I had to flash "SkyDragon+M8+Sense+444+Kernel+V2.0.1".
Now it's testing time.
Let's see if this ROM is so good.
EDIT: There's nothing cool in this ROM
Going back to skydragon.

Yea arhd is like stock Rom and yea nothing special about it

Hahaha aww man, do you not read what each ROM does before installing it so you know beforehand what you're getting yourself into?

Nah, I didn't. I saw many people were using it so I thought it must be good, but it isn't (no special features).
However I wanted to learn how to make it work, and I must say that the htc is the weirdest phone I ever had. Flashing a rom can't be done logically, here nothing works as it should in theory
Sent from HTC One m8, or maybe not anymore

I often see people who aren't able to get arhd working...but I really don't know why..the normal cwm recovery doesn't work as it should...use instead twrp or Philz...both are working foo and with Philz backup and restore is working where in twrp most of the m8 are having problems :/ I really don't have problems to install a custom Rom.
I got the phone, tried it one day stock, wanted to get a custom Rom, unlocked boot loader flashed custom recovery and afterwards Rom and elementalx kernel...without problems.. few months later was able to do s-off with sunshine and after that most things where again easier

Can't flash rooms anymore

Hi,
I've been a happy user of Mustaavalkosta CyanogenMod 11 custom room till the day when I had to flash that boot.img 'cause my DHD stopped booting. I looked for adb and HTC drivers, tried many but none worked. Then I read somewhere that you can use a PD98IMG.zip, insert the boot.img in it and flash it using 4EXT Recovery. Did that, now each time I try to flash a room, I get this message:
"set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
E:Error in /sdcard/cm-11-20141020-UNOFFICIAL-ace.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted"
Is there a way to recover my device?

Status 7 means incompatible recovery

Flash a recovery for cm 11 or kk ROMs.. Twrp 2.7.1 or cwm 6.0.4 work well

I've always been using the same 4EXT. Should I use another?

Um.. How have you flashed ROMs in the past? Sounds like your bootloader is locked.

through 4EXT! And I believe my bootloader is htc-dev unlocked.

I'm on Android 5 Dev Edition, CID 11111111, HBOOT 3.19, how do i get Marshmellow?

As the title says.
I did the dev edition conversion in January and unlocked and rootes in the process. I have had the last security update pending for the last 2 months but haven't installed it since i couldn't be bothered to flash stock recovery. So i suppose i won't get around flashing stock recovery if i want the OTA marshmellow update correct? and will i stay rooted after the update?

No you will have to flash the stock recovery, & there is a way of achieving root via the statement approach in this threathttp://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/rom-stock-unlocked-developer-sense-7-t3262894

Unlock your bootloader via htcdev.com (instructions are given there as well as the method)
Flash the latest unofficial TWRP recovery in fastboot
Then either flash the latest SuperSU.zip or the ROM of your choice (most HTC 10 ROMs come pre-rooted) with TWRP

Google should be pushing Assistant out to all android devices, regardless of root status now. I've got it on my HTC 10 running Nougat and I haven't done anything.
