[Q] Unroot HTC One M8 Dual SIM

Hi, I have an HTC One M8 Dual SIM which I managed to root and s-off. I need to get this back to stock but am having some problems.
At the moment my phone is as follows:
Software Status: Official
***LOCKED***
M8_DUGL PVT SHIP S-OFF
CID-HTC__032
HBOOT-3.19.0.0000
OS-3.33.401.6
I have TWRP v2.8.4.0 installed as well
I have looked at the following thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735235 and managed to get the phone back to Software Status: Official and ***LOCKED*** I think but not managed to get S-ON or unrooted.
I have found firmware 3.33.401.6 for the M8 but not managed to find the actual stock OS.
Can someone point me in the right direction of what I need to do now?
This is the first time I have tried to unroot a device so sorry for anything I am missing from this post.
Thanks.

1. Do NOT S-ON unless the phone is 100% stock (and even then I wouldn't bother)
2. Flash the RUU in here - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B17smFr95pleb3dJVDZVZTFfUEU/

Thanks. I have downloaded and run and get the error "ERROR [130]: MODEL ID ERROR"
I followed the previous guide and think I may have used the wrong recovery image as the guide doesn't mention Dual SIM. So, I have downloaded recovery_1.54.401.10.img from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376 and tried "fastboot flash recovery recovery_1.54.401.10.img" but get the following error:
sending 'recovery' (15236 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... FAILnot allowed
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
Execution time is 1(s)
Not sure if the recovery image is the problem or not however.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

If you've relocked the bootloader it won't work. If you're getting the Model ID error it means you've changed your MID at some point. Can you connect your phone in fastboot and post the results of fastboot getvar all (leave out your IMEI and S/N)

Back to being unlocked now by following htconeroot com again. After this, I have now been able to run the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery_1.54.401.10.img" to remove TWRP.
I have tried running the RUU EXE again but get the same issue. Is there anything you can suggest to get this fixed?
Thanks for the help.

Well, you've go the right Model ID, so do this...before we start make sure the RUU I linked to is named ruu.zip (not ruu.zip.zip!) and that you have htc_fastboot in the same location (if you don't have htc_fastboot you can get it here - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8L4pkbzdlR3eTlJSjdKVEdHX1U/). Also make sure you've relocked the bootloader using fastboot oem lock
1. Connect phone in fastboot mode
2. Run fastboot oem rebootRUU to get into RUU mode
3. Open a command window in the location where the RUU and htc_fastboot are
4. Type htc_fastboot flash zip ruu.zip
5. Wait for it to finish
If you get any errors please post them up

With "fastboot oem lock" I received the following, however after a reboot of the phone it is showing as *** RELOCKED ***:

Hmmmm, I'm not sure. Never had an issue doing it before but never used the Dual-SIM model. Can't see it being any different, though

I appreciate the help.
Do you have a link to stock recovery for the Dual SIM M8 as not sure that is 100% at the moment - when I press on RECOVERY it just goes back to the FASTBOOT menu.
Thanks.

I don't, no. I've been trying to see if anyone has the OTA cause you can pull it from that but the RUU is encrypted so can't be pulled without decrypting the RUU (which I don't know how to do)

please help me on how to run through this.
much appreciated.

In the first lines you say it boots to H-Boot and in the last lines you say it doesn't boot to the bootloader.
Hboot and bootloader are the same. So where does it boot to and where does it not ?
Put it in the hboot/bootloader - fastboot USB menu and execute the RUU.exe from the PC .....
For a ruu you don't have to be in the fastboot oem rebootRUU mode

sorry, but i'd always think H-boot is one where i choose between options, whilst boot-loader is the dark screen where's the progress bar during a flash operation!
putting it right, the machine never reboots to RUU mode.
thanks for the info.

You don't have to be in the RUU mode at all to execute the ruu. If you have the ruu.exe you can do it like i previous posted, if you have the ruu.zip you can do it via the external SD card by renaming the zip file. Can't remember the exact name. Check for RUU.zip via sd card.

Thanks much Mr. Hofs for the support, lemme get with the zip option.,, will post results as soon

The NAND is dead????

If you can't boot in "fastboot oem rebootRUU" the NAND is probably dead, I'm sorry...

HTC Desire 300 Bootloader loop or Freeze on logo with 7 vibrations

Hello as in topic.
I cant fix this. When i turn the phone on there's logo and 7 vibrations and phone hangs out.
If I use VOL DOWN + POWER and run Fastboot phone is recognized by windows and cmd fastboot but when I go to Bootloader phone is not recognized (USB enumeration failed).
I have tried to upload a recovery with fastboot and to unblock bootloader by HTC Dev website (other devices) when I try to use .bin file there's Question If I want to unlock bootloader I can choose yes but when I use POWER nothing happens. Same with commands fastboot oem unlock / fastboot oem lock (there's only 3 dots . . . and nothing happens).
There's no code for this but I get signature verification failed response when I am trying to flash recovery.img. Without this I can't probably use TRWM or Clockwork recovery.

M8S stuck on fastboot, no os, no recovery

Hello all,
I recently got a HTC ONE M8S that is OS wiped and I'm struggling to make it functional again.
When I turn on the device it goes to fastboot instantly and shows:
Code:
*** Software status : Modified ***
*** Unlocked ***
M8QL_UL PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.19.0.0000
[email protected]
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048MB
Aug 24 2015,19:4356.0
Menu is responsive but when I switch to hboot and select recovery phone goes off and back to fast boot again, factory reset is the same.
My idea to move from here was to use custom recovery so I flashed TWRP:
Code:
C:\adb>htc_fastboot flash recovery twrp-2.8.7.0-m8s-qlul.img
sending 'recovery' (30548 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... OKAY
Execution time is 3(s)
Unfortunetaly it didn't helped much as i was still not able to run recovery from hboot menu.
I tried to trick the phone to boot into recovery with fastboot:
Code:
C:\adb>fastboot boot twrp-2.8.7.0-m8s-qlul.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 2.440s]
booting...
OKAY [ 0.000s]
finished. total time: 2.440s
Unfortunetaly in my case it had no effect and recovery not booted.
I did further research and the most promissing advice was to restore the stock, so the idea was to follow this thread.
I used adb again to get more info about the phone and find a proper RUU for it:

I suggest booting/flashing earlier twrp version for now. That worked for me once. Thread
