Hello.
I am currently running ParanoidAndroid 4.6Beta5. Since PA's developement for M8 seems to be dead, I wanted to try CM12.
When I tried to install latest nightly build of CM12 I got a message that my bootloader (3.16) is not supported, and that I need to update it to 3.18 or 3.19.
I googled a bit and found out that in order to update it, I need to restore latest official ROM.
I managed to restore official ROM (3.28.401.6, based on android 4.4.4) but the WiFi wasn't working, so I couldn't do much there. I relocked bootloader and flashed official recovery, and then tried to run RUU.
RUU failed with code [315]. I ran out of ideas and google results to browse.
I unlocked my bootloader again, flashed clockworkmod recovery back, and restored my backup of ParanoidAndroid.
Right now the phone is in the same state as when I was starting.
Here is some basic info about my phone:
Model: HTC ONE M8 16GB Unlocked (purchased on amazon; network free)
CID: HTC_001
Bootloader: Unlocked
Recovery: Clockworkmod Touch v6.0.4.8
S status: S-ON

So the basic question is: how to flash CM12 on HTC One M8? I spent so many hours on it without any result, so this thread is my last chance.
Edit: SOLVED!
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58859881&postcount=13 for solution.

Since you are S-On, you can't just flash the firmware, which is the easiest way. But you can use this method.
I'll give you an RUU to flash. But before you flash it, backup everything that is important to you, because this will wipe your phone.
Download this.
Rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip (that's a zero not the letter)
Put it onto the root of your extSD (By root of I mean just on the card and not a folder)
Boot into bootloader and choose hboot.
Follow the prompts (vol up to flash, power button to reboot when done)
Congratulations! You now have the latest lollipop firmware.
Make sure you delete the renamed zip from your extSD when you are done. If you don't delete it, it will try to update again every time you go back to hboot.
Since you are S-On, you can't just flash the firmware

What do you mean by firmware. Bootloader or ROM? I did 'just' flash PA without a problem.
I guess the ROM you liked is the latest official one. By installing it I will get my bootloader updated and then I will be able to flash CM12. Do I get this right? or will I get stuck on stock forever?
Edit: I just tried to flash your image using hboot but it didn't work. Check file attached.
I checked MD5 checksum just to make sure that it did download correctly and it does match with the one on the download page. However, I did notice that when I'm trying to open that zip file on my PC I'm getting an error saying that the archive is corrupted.

It probably didn't work because you are S-On. The method I gave you is generally used by S-Off users to flash firmware, but since it was a signed zip, I thought it might work.
Rename the download I gave you to ROM.zip at put it into your fastboot/platform-tools folder on your PC. Then hook your phone up to your PC and fastbooot.
fastboot devices to make sure your phone and PC are properly connected. (letters and numbers/ser. #)

Okay. There must be something I am not aware of.
In fastboot: fastboot getvar all and post the readout here. But delete the serial number and IMEI for your own safety. Never post those on a public forum.

It's pretty much the same one. Maybe the other one is screwed somehow? Try with this one instead and hopefully you can get updated.

Is it not possible to just restore whatever ROM my phone came with and then just do the OTA update?

LOL!
Yes. I got caught up in this method. You will also need the stock recovery (more important than the ROM) to use the OTAs. Plus your system partition has to be unmodified. That means no Xposed modules. If you have them, delete them using Xposed framework, then uninstall that as well.

So if I get this right, I just need to restore my factory ROM and Recovery image, then update it through OTA to lollipop. After that I will be able to flash my custom recovery and ROMs once again, right?
Do you have any links to the ROM and Recovery to my phone?

Success. For future generations, here is what I did:
Using fastboot getvar all command I found out that my phone was still mentally stuck on stock rom 1.54.401.5. Using this info, I downloaded matching nandroid backup of that ROM from here and restored it using my custom recovery.
Then, downloading from the same thread, I flashed back stock recovery image using HTC One 2014 (M8) All-In-One Toolkit V2.0.
I was back on my original ROM with original recovery, so I started doing OTA updates until I got to the official android 5.0.1. These updates updated my bootloader to version 3.19.
Having the bootloader that I needed, I flashed custom recovery and installed CM12 without any problem.
Thanks for help!
Hey, I just found this as I am having the same problem. I am trying to follow your solution, but hit a road block and was wondering if you could help. I ran the command "fastboot getvar all" in fastboot and got output similar to yours. Following your advice I looked at the line (bootloader) version-main: 1.55.605.2 which is different than yours, but okay I just need to find a matching one. But when I go to the link that you had provided I can't find a backup that matches mine (or at least I think I can't). What does it mean for it to match anyway? I'm getting so close! I want cm12!!
I did it over like 6 months ago. I can't remember any more. Sorry.
Anyway, CM12 has way too many problem on HTC ONE M8 to be used as a daily driver. I am using GPE Rom now, which I can recommend.
I just need to find some way to update my bootloader so I can get lollipop up and running. Thanks tho

The number needs to match exactly to restore to stock and OTA update the software/firmware (and therefore update hboot).
You can try to post on the following thread, and ask if someone can post the stock nandroid for 1.55.605.2 :http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Otherwise (if you can't get a stock nandroid) you may need to resort to getting s-off in order to update hboot (actually I recommend updating all firmware, not just hboot).

Hi there! I have a problem with my One M8 (S-OFF) - I cant flash any ROM on it. I can restore backups from a CM11 4.4.4 and an ARHD 41.0 but can't upgrade from either. I was looking at your solution and noticed that my ROM number is blank when I run fastboot getvar all. Is this a matter of concern? How can I flash a ROM again?

Your version-main is blank because of a bug in some older TWRPs. Update to 2.8.7.0. Flashing the new recovery won't fix version-main being blank until you flash new firmware though.
Also, you probably do have to update your firmware. You say you can't flash any ROMs, but you give no details.

Apologies, newbie here. I was looking for the correct place to place my request for help, when I found this thread and asked. I will put it up in the Q&A section.
Hey guys, so I tried to flash RUU Firmware on my htc one m9. I downloaded the firmware, minimal adb flashboot, and htc sync manager. Problem is when I open command prompt via minimal adb flashboot and I type 'adb reboot downloader' it says:
adb server is out of date. killing...
* daemon started successfully *
error: device '(null)' not found
Am I missing something here? What should I do?
any chance you run a virtual android, genymotion or something of the like? And I would like to think aside from the drivers for HTC, the sync manager is best tucked safely away in the garbage

if you boot to bootloader, should be up top there. from a booted phone just 'adb reboot bootloader' if it says s-on thats your problem. My guess is since you do not know your s-on/off you are probably s-on.

No it says:
*** Software status: Modified ***
*** Unlocked ***
*** S-ON ***
so this is your problem, S-ON is the last piece of security for you. Without S-OFF you are unable to flash RUU the way your are attempting.
There is an app, Sunshine. Cost 25$ I am pretty sure and that will get you s-off. or you can wait until your carrier pushes the OTA and do a "Back To Stock" method. Well the app is free, it runs a check and makes sure it can get s-off. then it wants money.

Okay hold on, I remember when I rooted my phone it was S-Off. So to get it back to original factory version I need to S-on it?

No not at all, S-OFF makes it easier to get back to stock. If you were S-OFF at some point I am not too sure why the bootloader is reporting S-ON now. I am cheap and I revert to stock to get my OTAs to get the latest roms.. this is a huge pain. S-OFF is ideal once you have it you should keep it.
@kamocheng: Since I don't have much time at the moment I'm keeping it short:
1. Your zip is corrupted (look at the output). Re-download it and compare the MD5 checksums.
2. If you're s-on you need to be relocked for running RUUs.
3. You never mentioned your firmware version nor your CID so no one can verify whether you use the correct RUU.
4. There is no free version of sunshine since its a free app with in-app purchasement. But there is no need to s-off if you use the correct RUU.
Make sure htc sync isn't running on your computer.

Hello there, thanks for replying my thread
1. I'm sorry I dont quiet understand, do you mean zip in my PC or zip in my phone?
2. My firmware version is 1.32.617.30, how do i check my CID?
Correct me if I'm wrong but there are 2 options for me to return to original stock? First, S-off my phone and flash RUU firmware? Second, relocked my phone then run original stock? Since I didnt backup my original stock, I need to find untouched one?
Sorry this is my first android phone so if I'm total noob, I'm so sorry
What if i unrooted then relocked my phone, will i be able to take OTA then?

I'm talking about the zip you tried to flash in post 3. If you are using firefox as a browser I would recommend using an addon like DownThemAll! to verifiy the md5 checksum after the download has finished. Files can get corrupted during a download.
No, its one and the same way. You run the RUU either way. The only difference is that you can flash any firmware version with s-off and you don't need to relock while the versions you can flash with s-on have to match your current version (that means same version or newer) and your CID. Firmware versions with x.xx.617.xx are the developers editions if I'm not mistaking. (As far as I know AndroidRUU doesn't have any corresponding files. So I assume you downloaded it from clsA's personal collection of developer edition files since google didn't find any other sources for these files.) As said before redownload the file and compare the downloaded file's checksum with the one mentioned next to the download link (428582cef691c2e37053a0e19e9d738e). If they match the file should be flashable.
I prefer flashing RUUs using the sd-card method instead of fastboot so here are some instructions how I would continue:
Be sure to backup everything important like contacts, sms, etc. (I'm using MyPhoneExplorer for this step)
Get a SD-card that is not bigger than 32 gb and formatted to fat32 (I've always been using the formatting function of the m9 for this step).
Rename the RUU to "0PJAIMG.zip".
Copy that file into the root direction of your SD-card.
Relock your bootloader.
Put the card back into your phone.
Be sure that your phone is charged enough (more than 50 %).
Boot into download mode.
Follow the instructions on the screen.
Wait some minutes.
Done.

Correct.
Edit: I just saw that you asked more or less the same question twice. jollywhitefoot's solution works the same way as the one I described. The only difference is that you are using fastboot instead of a sd-card.

Either you S-OFF with sunshine (costs 25 USD) so you can flash the leaked firmware or you wait untill the official OTA gets distributed by HTC. If you choose to do the latter you need to restore your system to stock, unrooted, read-only state by flashing a RUU or restoring a stock backup and reflashing the stock recovery.

The update from the link is for the Asian SKU 709. If you go back to a stock version with the SKU 401 you can only use updates with the same SKU and the update for firmware 2.10.401.1 has not been realesed officially untill now.
Edit: Maybe I understood you wrong. What is your actual firmware version? I mean the one that is stated in the download mode in the line with "OS" at the beginning. That is the firmware you need to look for if you want to get back to stock. The one in settings>about only tells you the base of the rom you are using.

Your phone is S-ON so you can only go back to the stock firmware that belongs to your phones SKU. You need to look at the "OS" line in download mode if you want to know which SKU versions you can use.

Since you're s-on, you're already on .709 firmware. There is no way you could be on anything else because it would not flash. Still, you should reboot to download mode and see what it says. If it's 1.32.709 as I expect, proceed.
1. Use Titanium Backup to back up all your user data and apps to your external sdcard; remove it.
2. Relock and run the existing RUU for your phone (this will wipe everything). Link is in this thread; follow instructions in the OP.
3. Wait until the OTA shows up and install.
4. Unlock and reroot, then restore your backed up data and apps.

when i entered download mode , my OS showed me 1.40.709.8
so i assume now ,
relock my bootloader , run RUU 1.32.709 then OTA from my phone till i reach 1.40.709.8 and then i use the OTA in this thread to upgrade to 2.10.709.1 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61995182&postcount=373
then i can Unlock again and install TWRP and so on ,, am i right ??

Correct. Although I think there is no need to flash the last OTA manually. You can update via the OTA function until you reach 2.10.709.1 since it's been released officially.

No. If you're on 1.40, the 1.32 RUU will not flash because you're s-on—you can't downgrade. You need to find the 1.40.709 RUU. Let me look around.
Edit: It doesn't seem to be posted anywhere I can find. You need to get back to stock to flash an OTA. I think your only option unless HTC releases a RUU for 2.10.709 may be to s-off and update manually.

Actually downgrading with S-ON is possible as long as the bootloader version doesn't need to be downgraded, too (source). Just checked on my phone that the aboot is even with the 2.7.401.1 firmware still on version 1.0.0.0000. So there should be no problem.

Download and use HTC_fast boot.exe instead of facebook.exe. you can find HTC_fastboot by searching the forum. Just place it on the same folder as your current fastboot.exe file.
Command are the same except instead of typing "fastboot flash..." It's "HTC_fastboot flash..."
Edit: this is because regular fastboot can't handle files over 2GB.

Main version not allowed looks like its saying you can't downgrade. Maybe the bootloader version changed.

Which RUU did you try to flash? As far as I know there is one for 1.32.709.6 and one for 1.36.709.3. Best case scenario would be you downloaded a wrong RUU. Worst case scenario would be that downgrading is (in contrast to the post I linked earlier) not aboot dependent and not possible if the software numbers (in your case the 40 you want to downgrade to 32 or 36) differ.

mY RECOMMENDATION IS TO WAIT UNTIL DE 2.10 RUU ZIP AND DO THE SCARD METHOD, IS SAFE FAST AND THEN YOU GOT A FULL STOCK CLEAN OF BLOATWARE, ALSO IYOU WILL BECOME OFFICIAL STOCK, YOU WOULD HAVE TO ROOT AGAIN AND FLASH TWRP. NO S-OFF REQUIERED.

Flashing OTAs with TWRP isn't possible but you can use the recovery that is placed in the OTA. The OTA can be found in
Code:
/data/data/com.htc.updater/files/
Just copy it to your pc and open the zip file. The recovery can be found in one of the subfolders. Next step would be making a TWRP backup with only recovery checked. After the backup has finished you need to copy it to your pc, too. Now you need to rename the stock recovery you grabbed from the OTA to
Code:
recovery.emmc.win
and replace the recovery in the backup with the renamed file. Next you need to copy the backup back to your phone and restore it with TWRP. When you reboot now TWRP will be replaced by the stock recovery and you should be able to install the OTA. I'm not sure whether it is necessary to relock for the update with S-ON. With S-OFF it is actually not needed.
Edit: I missed the part where you stated that you're still rooted and assumed that you restored a "read-only backup". My instructions won't work until you restored a stock, unrooted and read-only system beforehand.
Hello,
I have been having a lot of trouble lately and all of my problems can be fixed by doing an RUU. The issue is my m9 will not take a full RUU it gets stuck at 50% and I get an error 155 in the HTC exe. The phone itself freezes on the screen with red security text a phone with a spinning circular arrow and a green progress bar. After the freeze I can reboot the phone by volup and pwr. I can access bootloader, and download mode. Doing an RUU by the zip file on the sd card in download mode results in "Failed: -2, 8: fail to flash via downloadzip
How I got here.
relocked bootloader without selecting allow oem unlock in dev settings
attempted an RUU and it froze no ROM installed
attempted to unlock bootloader to get error message because of allow unlock not selected in dev settings
attempted to flash using sd card and download mode to get error above
I am s-on and relocked
I am so stuck right now and I need some help

ok. so error 155 could be a connectivity issue. Check device manager or try a different USB port.
Also, do you have HTC Sync Manager installed on the PC? It's required for an RUU to run. Otherwise you get 155.

You can't flash firmware when you're s-on.
For the RUU, maybe open device manager while it's running to make sure the device is recognized throughout the process. I suppose it's possibly a bad download, but I'm not sure the exe would run at all of that was the case.

Meaning you are s-on, relocked, can't boot into the OS, and did not tick "allow oem unlock"?
If that's the case, your only options are to run the ruu for your firmware version or, if that doesn't work or none exists, return it to htc for repair.

yes unfortunately I am S-on, bootloader reloacked (to take the official update). It all started when my official HTC RUU crashed mid way!!! it still crashes..I can get to fastboot, recovery download mode etc but just cant RUU any more as it will crash around 62% saying errror 115 ..get the correct RUU for your device ... it stops at fail to update signature or something... Repeated this this multiple times..same result... I was trying to update to 5.1 from 5.01 software. The download mode does say that I have 2.X.502.18 OS but I believe it did not finish installing all...
I have head there is another way of putting the RUU.zip file and renaming it to some specific name and putting it in your sd card and applying update or may be it will automatically install in download mode?
Can someone help me get that zip file for ATT 5.1 version or outline the process ? my last hope!

Can't you just unlock with htcdev, get TWRP and flash a rom to check "allow oem unlocking"?
I don't really understand what that option does as I was unlocked at version 5.0.2 though, sorry for my ignorance.

the problem is since the RUU failed in the middle of updating to 5.1 and I already have relocked the bootloader before applying RUU (you have to lock the bootloader or RUU will fail) and now with partially installed 5.1 on my phone, there was a new security feature that was added that youa have to check allow oem unlock on developer settings.
So now I am stcuk, cant got to developer setting as I cant boot to OS, RUU keeps failing on me, can not unlock bootloader as its not even letting me get the token...fails saying "

any way to allow oem unlock in fastboot instead of through developer settings?
any other clue?

Did you try the SD-card method ?
Code:
rename the RUU.zip to 0PJAIMG.ZIP,
place it on a ext sd card formatted in FAT32 (a 16 or 32gig one should work),
reboot into DOWNLOAD_MODE, agree and it should flash.
thatts the only thing I have not tried. I will do so tonight and report back.
BTW any place I can grab the ATT 5.1 RUU.zip ? It has to be 2.X.502.18 OS as thats what I see in download screen. With locked bootloder I believe I can only update or re-install the same version.
I extracted rom.zip out of the HTC RUU.EXE file (grabbing it from the temp folder). Do i Just rename it from rom.zip to 0PJAIMG.zip ? I tried to open rom.zip in the arhive app abut it failed to open it ? is that expected?

Sd card method failed too...gives some error say unable to flash from sd card ERROR -2.
Seems like I'll have to return it to ATT or should I send it to HTC ? it is S-on but bootloader is re-locked. I hope ATT wont mind taking it back. I believe its under one year warranty period. I mean was just trying to install 5.1 manually after it failed to take OTA.
Never relock your bootloader on HTC especially on 5.1 and spend $25 to get S-OFF lesson learned!
I spend almost 6 hours to find RUU, and nothing...

yes i used this and i'm geting: header error 22 :C
I just want to get working RUU > install > update to nugat
Currently i'm on my TWRP Stock Backup and i can't get update, cuz i getting error.
Boot to download mode and look at OS line, download the matching RUU and flash it.
The 401 wwe versions can be easily found here in the HTC 10 subforum.
Hint :
Perform a search in the stock backup thread.....

This is for GSM PHONES which have been set S-OFF - no CDMA (Sprint & Verizon) here! S-ON people: Please refer to HTC RUU methods or "Stock Backup and OTA" method. (not provided here).

SDCard has not working propertly, i've used another one with 2PS6IMG_PERFUM[email protected]61226_79.07_F_release_495903_signed_2.zip and it start flashing
This same RUU wont flash via RUU mode Fastboot... #HEADER_ERROR
On M7 i don't get these problems with RUU.

Remake the zip to 2PS6IMG.zip and copy of te the sdcard, boot to download mode and it wil be recognized. Flash it......
Stop making it very difficult with fastboot commands, not needed at all. And stop texting all RUU files, totally a waste of time. You need the RUU with the NUMBER that is WRITTEN next to OS in the DOWNLOAD mode. Stop doing all sorts of stuff that is totally irrelevant. If the RUU.zip from here doesn't work you do something wrong.
If your OS line is 2.41.401.x you download that RUU and do as i wrote in the first lines of this post.
You try all different sorts of RUU's so that indicates to me that you didn't bother to check out your download mode
Generally i get what i want.
Sorry for shi* post, but sometimes i just dont get it.
I know that the stock roms have a os versions and phone only accept only specific one.
But sometimes like today my sdcard just trick me so hard ;d and i just trying a different method like fastboot oem rebootRUU + fastboot flash zip zipname.zip, thats all.
Thanks for your time @Mr Hofs and @santod040 (Your rom on M7 GPE
is one of the better ones) .

"generally i get what i want" .....jeeeze that comment made me crinch for a moment. Actually the lack of proper reading our posts had you downloading all sorts of RUU files which were unnecessary. It's not your sdcard that tricked you it's your unfocused mind.
Cheers

Do NOT relock bootloader or return to s-on.
