hi to all .. i have htc one m8 and i root it ..i want to check if the root still ..if yes i want to unroot ..my htc version is lollipop ...plz help me
You need to restore a stock TWRP backup (stock ROM) and stock recovery in order to OTA update. See the following thread for the required files and guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
Alternately, if there is an RUU for your M8 version, you can use it to update. But not all M8 versions have RUU. Do fastboot getvar all, and post the results (delete IMEI and serial number before posting) if you want further advice.
EDIT: I see from your post history, that you asked this same exact question last year (and again the year before that), and I gave you the proper answer. Not sure why you feel the need to ask the same question over and over, when you've already been provided the correct answer.
If you don't understand the process, or have any specific questions about the process, then ask them. Otherwise, just asking the same question (how to return to stock for update) is just annoying.

You are on the latest version. There are no more updates. There haven't been for years now (3-4 years?).

Your S-Off. Do what I've done as long as you have a gsm vetsion. Change your MID to the international version, change CID to HTC__001 and run a ruu via zip for .exe. you'll get the updates then. Search the thread for how to do it. That's what I did.

I have a similar problem, even after rooting the phone, I am unable to update. And flashing custom roms does not work due to firmware issues.
I got this phone unlocked with super CID.
any help to update to any custom rom would be appreciated.

Please don't post the same question to multiple threads. You are already being helped in the "HELP THREAD".
Also, don't "zombie" threads that have been dead for almost 2 years.
Hi guys. I need Ruu*.exe file for my m8. I have rooted, unlocked and tempered m8. I must go bak to official. Now the lastest official software is running but this is a rom. Not the official software installed on My Phone. Anybody can help me about this?
ps: Sorry for My badly english
Every region/carrier version has a different RUU. The RUU needs to match your CID and MID.
Do you know your CID? Current version number?
Best way to get the required info (and for us to help), is do fastboot getvar all, and post the output (delete IMEI and serial number before posting).
I dont know cid number but i am from Turkey and must be Turkey rom
I'm gonna share my information about my phone... I need 2-3 minutes

Relock the bootloader with command: fastboot oem lock
Then connect to PC, reboot phone into bootloader-fastboot mode, and just run the RUU executable from the PC.
Hi, can I have the latest available RUU as well for my device? Currently the device is having issues where it couldn't detect the SIM and WiFi/Bluetooth all not working at all, IMEI also not shown in the OS.

Thanks alot!
I have an htc one m8 ATT phone I want to install the ViperOneM8 5.02 rom on which says I need to update the firmware to a marshmellow firmware I think.
Or the latest.
While I have found some documentation how to do this on the net, I am not sure where I obtain these files.
The firmware.zip I believe it is
Help on this would be appreciated
Right now I am using hboot 3.16 and twrp 2.7
I found this link
http://android-revolution-hd.blogspot.com/p/android-revolution-hd-mirror-site-var.html
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=32780
and grabbed the 4.16.1540.8.zip but want to make sure I am grabbing the correct and latest version. Because I don't want to brick my phone
Post your fastboot getvar all result without serial & imei no.
You may need a different firmware if it's AT&T & S-On and also don't use that outdated 2.7 TWRP.

For some devices, TWRP 2.7 is recommended due to how older boot loaders may not take it well.
I like TWRP. When its workable, its array of tools is superior to CWM. But after I tried 2.8.x, I decided CWM or TWRP at or below 2.7.0.2 is safer and less crash prone.
When I attempted to boot to recovery it would boot loop. Please be mindful of boot signing. If you so slightly make your OEM software notice things a fuse will make your phone implode.

Read again what he is trying to do man ... he's going to update to Marshmallow firmware and that outdated TWRP 2.7 won't work for him (he can't even install his intended ViperOneM8 5.02 ROM with that outdated TWRP)
..... that's why I said don't use that outdated TWRP

Good point. For some odd reason CM pairs ROMs and Recoveries. If you check the Dev Auto update option would that be unnecessary.
It's been an itching question I actually had...
Sent from my HTC M8 GPE
? Mass Transit Honchkrow ?
I originally had twrp 2.8 on and tried to install the latest. But it was freezing because I think I need a newer version of hboot. which I have 3.16 on it.
I then downgraded to 2.7 to get it working. I installed ViperOnem8 Rom not reading the website successfully. but have issues with wifi, and 2 minute boot times.
"The 5.0.x ROM is based on HTC’s latest M8 Sense 7 Android 6.0.x base and requires you to update your firmware to at least the 6.0.x (Marshmallow) version! If you don’t you will run into some issues such as Wi-Fi not working or No Boot, etc.
We cannot install the firmware for you during ROM installation so you will need to take the steps to update the firmware on your own."
So I need to update my firmware. I have an ATT S-ON phone. But I have no clue where to get the firmware from, and make sure it is the right one and recent.
I need to update my firmware in order for this rom and a newer version of twrp to work correctly
ok, so
I upgraded to 3.11.1700.5 firmware I found. and that was successful.
Then I upgraded my twrp to twrp-3.0.2-0-m8 and that was successful
Now I am trying to install either Revolution Rom, or ViperOnem8 and both have the same problem. After install they keep booting into twrp and won't load.
I tried Cynamod and that installed and booted fine.
I believe both Revolution and Viper use the Aroma installer. Anyone know what is going on with these and a fix to stop it from booting into twrp?
Need advice

Wrong firmware. You installed an old version of GPE firmware.
You can't install Sense ROM like Revolution and Viper on GPE firmware.
I asked you to post fastboot getvar all to help you but it seems that you made it harder now because you installed a wrong firmware. If it is S-Off, then it is easy to fix.

First - remove all serial & imei no. from your above post.
As I said, it is not easy to fix this with S-On device. What you can try is to install the latest AT&T 6.20.502.5 firmware first then run 6.20.502.5 RUU

so your saying, install the ruu, update the firmware, then re install viper?
Can't I just update the firmware like I did before? It was S-On before I updated the firmware

No .. I don't say that ... read again ...
Flash firmware.zip first then RUU ...
or install ROM first, don't reboot the system, but reboot to bootloader, relock bootloader then flash firmware.zip
As you already flashed a wrong firmware, as I said this may work and may not work but the only way that you can try to fix the wrong firmware installed.

ok .. now that I understand what you are saying. because you had the RUU .exe and also were explaining how to update the firmware at the same time while the firmware was burried a couple of levels of posts, I didn't understand what you were saying.
so it looks like the firmware updated successfully

I unlocked the firmware through the htc website with the Unlock_code.bin
because fastbook oem unlock didn't work.
had to reinstall twrp and that worked after reinstall. although lots of mounting file system errors. with /Data I don't know if that's normal.
seems to be fixed after formatting
Now I will try installing a rom

Now you got it.
And yes, after changing from GPE to Sense GSM (AT&T) firmware, you need to reinstall TWRP (the latest 3.0.2-0) and you MUST format data partition, in TWRP - select WIPE, Format Data - yes ... because GPE & Sense data partition is of different size.
Please where can i get compatible firmware for my htc one m8s with S.O 1.12.1405.6 . I have been on this over 3 weeks now but all no avail.
Hi,i've been having update problems last 2 days and im confused.Every time i click restart & install button in update section it brings phone to recovery and starts installing update,but suddenly it requires phone to have root access.Is there any way to fix that without rooting? Because rooting caused me problem last time(infinite bootloop).
Also,im interested if my phone really is GPe.Here is the getvar:
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000

well this getvar result is not right or you have missed some thing
have you convert the device from sense to GPE ?
product : m8_ul is unlocked ( sense based )
GPE product is : m8_ul_ca
version main & cidnum are belong to GPE device
modelid is belong to sense device ( T-Mobile US )
you may need to clean up this mess then update your device

it depends on your choice ( sense or GPE )
the easier is GPE only need to change the modelid go to this thread to change it ( choose google play mid )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708581
then do update
or if you need to back to sense you need to go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733523
and follow the steps but replace the firmware in thread with most recent one from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
choose the one that match your modelid
or here it's direct link
https://mega.nz/#!yIhBTRKJ!5rZldUEzCaFqYUhomn4mO_IgA_-nW6-gV9HX5LCzT5Y
after that you will need to flash rom,restore backup or flash RUU from htc here is direct link
http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_M8_UL_M60_SENSE70_MR_TMOUS_6.20.531.5.exe
Edit:- it's recommended to back to sense as you can flash GPE based rom on sense firmware but you can't flash sense based rom on GPE firmware it's your choice

Hi everyone,
I attempted to root my HTC One M8 a few months ago and I got completely stuck and soft bricked my phone.
I now just want to try to get it working any way I can (back to stock or rooted whichever is easiest)
My bootloader is unlocked
I have S-ON (and I'm not sure of the best method to gain S-OFF if this is required, as there is a lot of conflicting information)
and I have TWRP v2.8.7.0 installed (I know this must be an old version now)
My region is United Kingdom/ carrier EE
Can anyone please advise me how I might be able to get my phone working again? (back to any working state is fine)
If this is any help... when I do fastboot getvar all, this is the information which comes up
(bootloader) version: 0.5
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 3.19.0.0000
(bootloader) version-baseband: 1.29.214500021.12G

You have European version htc m8 .
The easiest method is running a RUU for going back to stock .
Relock your bootloader .
Go to bootloader
Give command
Fastboot oem lock
Download this RUU
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960687057
Rename it 0P6BIMG.zip
Place it in sd card
Boot to bootloader
It will automatically read the ruu file and proceed with instructions.
HiT Thanks if SomeBody Helps you..
Thanks so much for the fast reply and perfect solution!!!
Hi sonnu0100.
I am in the exact same position as TMJay, however the only difference for me is that my CIDnum is "orange001".
Do you know which RRU I can use as the one you've provided for TMJay doesn't work for me. The error I receive is:-
"CID incorrect!
Update Fail!
Device halted due to Large Image update fail!
Press <POWER> to reboot"
My issue isn't as a result of me flashing things without care. I think there is an onboard memory problem as when I was using my M8 as my primary phone last year (before my HTC 10) it lost the OS without me doing anything. I was able to recover and get a working device again but can't remember what I did. I've gone to hand the phone to someone else to use and it's seemingly died again.... could just be erroneous.
Help appreciated.
Many thanks,
Hi,
For info, I've found a solution by referring to this thread - https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
So I'm back up and running with a working phone for now at least .
Cheers
