Hello,
I'm looking for some guidance on trying to install CM12 on HTC One (M8) with HBOOT 3.16.0.0000. Currently, when I try to flash the firmware in TWRP, I get a message that says HBOOT 3.18 or 3.19 is required. I do have S-OFF. Other information: CID-CWS__001. I'm not sure of the next steps to take.
Thanks!
When you say flash firmware are you talking about the cm12 ROM zip?
You flash firmwares in hboot/bootlooader.You will want to have Supercid for it to flash.

Yes, my mistake. I want to flash the CM12 ROM and I can't seem to do that because I (apparently) need a newer version of HBOOT.
My question is what is the next step? If I get supercid, will the CM12 ROM install or is there another intermediate step (upgrading HBOOT? How do I do that?).
Thanks!

Yes another step is needed,
Because your S-OFF,Supercid you can flash other firmwares to your device that will allow anything based on 5.0.0-5.0.1 and still run smoothly.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/firmware-flashing-panic-attacks-t2824048
I even recommend converting to Dev edition fully and once fully converted it will OTA to the latest firmware for you .once your up to date you just use twrp/philz recovery and flash away

Thanks jball. I ended up doing something very similar (http://intoandroid.com/turn-gsm-htc-m8-google-play-edition/). Worked flawlessly and now I'm running Lollipop.

Your welcome
I came from that very conversion but what I don't like about the full conversion is the system is full to the max .
Now by converting to Dev edition and flashing the ROM instead I have all this system left cause of the Sense partition table
I'm still on GPE conversion...I had thought about switching to Dev edition though...which firmwares have y'all used ? I was thinking 3.28.1540.5...
Well I was going to screenshot boot loader,but I forgot the key combo for boot loader screenshots. Here's what I with
Hboot: 3.19
Cid : 11111111
Mid: OP6B17000
FW : 3.11.1700.5
Im using graffixnyc's android l firmware

You would want to use the 3.28.1540.***** cause if you did the earlier ruu you won't be able to OTA unless you change your CID

No not the only benefit,
Stability when flashing the most recent Roms is another reason.
When flashing lollipop Roms it helps to be as up to date as you can in my opinion.
I found that when I flashed a lollipop firmware and then flashed a lollipop ROM it basically converted me to full GPE and left me with the system being about 200kb chey of having no space left (just like taking the OTA to GPE lollipop does)

Why would this matter? It allows you to go back to Sense ROMs. But aside from that, I don't think that having system storage available yields any benefit. Or am I missing something?

It mattered when I tried to move an 815kb file to "system/bin" when there was only 225kb of system left.
It's a known issue ,
So I went back to Sense and flashed the stock GPE 5.0.1 ROM and have over 1.5g of extra space (not that I could soak up that much space)

Ah, I see. So obviously if you try to add something to the system partition, and its maxed out, then that is a problem. Figured I was missing something.

I have an HTC One M8 AT&T Branded but it has 4.4.2 on it and i wanna flash viperrom 3.2.1 but it requires androids 4.4.4 software. im S-ON, 3.16 Bootloader with 1.58.502.1 Software number.

Perfect.
Unlock your bootlooader if you haven't already, fastboot flash recovery (TWRP/PHILZ),root using the chosen custom recovery,make a backup before or after root.
Go here http://theroot.ninja/ for Sunshine
S-OFF cause that's what your going to need to update as far as 4.4.4
Orrrr just wait a few days for the ATT 4.4.4 build to be released (ETA 29th) and then youll have 4.4.4 without having to do anything.

That's a better idea for sure.
I haven't noticed if Sunshine has an update that works with 4.4.4 yet.
Are you S-OFF ?
What are the advantages/disadvantages of S-OFF so the OP knows what he might be missing.
Do you know when the Sunshine update will be?
Yup,no [email protected],[email protected],there are plenty of posts about advantages and disadvantages...my point of view is simple,it is not needed for the novice,ive seen too many mess things due to lack of knowledge. My usage of it is for switching between att and developer ROM's to get latest updates. Outside of that I dont mess with conversions,to risky for a 6-700 device. My advice is stick to htc dev unlocked bootloader and wait for official update.

I didn't Google for to long but I haven't found concrete links that state the exact date .how many times have we been promised a date and watch it pass by anyways.
May I ask if you've modified any other device before this one?
I'm not trying to push,but S-OFF might be in your future and will not halt an OTA from installing.
The version your on is easily exploitable using "Sunshine" unless you take the soon to be 4.4.4 update.
Nobody knows when Sunshine will have an update even with the team working on it as we speak.
Wont be much on Google @date,came from somewhere else. And nothing is ever "concrete" with software,especially with carrier branded software.

I have Rooted, and flashed multiple ROMS to my old M7 before. Nothing crazy.
I as well have the same build, unlocked bootloader, flashed custom recovery. Will I have to return to stock recovery using 1.58.502.1 RUU and to get the OTA update to 4.4.4??
I'm trying to get the latest Android Revolution ROM for 4.4.4 but realized I was in a bit of a pickle. I'd like to take the path of least resistance on this one - any advice would be super appreciated. Thanks!

I'd say wait till tomorrow to see if an OTA update will roll out.
Or if you just can't wait for the ability to flash what you desire than I would go S-OFF and flash a non At&t firmware that you need to allow a smooth function of mentioned ROM.
Im restoring back to default AT&T ROM and such and will post weather the update has been pushed or not. i sure hope it has
**Update** Still no update, i got the " Current Software is up to date, You may check again in 23 Hours 59 Mintues.

You can check as many times as you like by setting your time manually ahead and your phone/device won't know the difference.
Check as many times as you like but it will remain the same,you should get a notification when it's time
So if you don't have s-off you can't update to 4.44 Sense ROMS with AT&T? I'm on Slim Rom and sound quality stinks. I want the new Android Revolution but i've read wi-fi and such doesn't work. Clarification plz?

Correct .
S-OFF allows you to change your CID witch will allow you to ruu Dev Edition 4.4.4 so everything runs smoothly
I've not looked on this thread in a while. I am S-off and unlocked and my cid is 11111111 but I have never updated firmware so that I can run a 4.4.4 rom. Is it correct that I flash a RUU (guess it's not called flashing when it comes to a RUU). How do I know which RUU to post - I found this one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2757462 (http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...G_20.31A.4145.02L_release_368350_signed_2.exe)
Will I loose root or anything (other than wiping my data) when running the ruu.

I'll just say that if it's a stock ruu than it's most likely without root and it will wipe as if it came out of the box.if its a full ruu than it will come with the updated firmware as well witch should allow you to flash 4.4.4 Roms and still run smoothly.
What I did around 5:00am this morning was restore my Dev edition backup I had along with the stock recovery so I could take the Dev edition lollipop official update and now I have lollipop firmware to use with my stock GPE 5.0.1 lollipop ROM/backup .

Yes, running/flashing the 4.4.4 Dev Edition RUU will update you to that appropriate firmware. But, what you linked is not Dev Edition, its a stock AT&T RUU. And its not 4.4.4 either, its 4.4.2, which is probably where you already are.
What you want is the 3.28.1540 RUU linked here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/ruu-m8-developer-edition-sense-1-54-t2884777
RUU will wipe the phone, install stock ROM (meaning root will be lost) and stock recovery.
But I also think its overkill to run an RUU just to update firmware, if that is the intent. My suggestion is to just run the firmware linked in the following post (which also has great instructions for doing so): http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-htc-one-m8/development/att-4-4-3-2-22-1540-3-debloated-sense-6-t2837365
The above method shouldn't overwrite the current ROM and user data. But backup anything important before flashing firmware, just in case.
Side note, "flash" is a fairly generic term, and as the RUU flashes stock ROM among other things, the term "flash" is appropriate IMO.
So can I just load the firmware file and flash thru fastboot? Is it This one?
3.28.1540.5 Firmware only unmodified (Latest 4.4.4 Update,S-OFF REQUIRED)

Hi everyone, I'm Josh and I'm a long time reader of XDA. I'm really struggling with the next steps on my HTC one despite reading ton's of information on XDA and many other sources. I could use some help / clarification.
I recently purchased an HTC One m7 ATT version. I've rooted, installed SuperSU, TWRP and unlocked the phone. I was stuck on choosing a rom but I've hit a new snag. I was going to try ViperOne but noticed they insist you install the latest firmware updates first. Here's where I'm lost. I'm running the stock version that came with my phone when it was locked.
Kitkat 4.4.2, Sense 6
FW# - 5.12.502.2
Hboot - 1.57
Radio - 4m.27.3218.14
I can't seem to get the OTA's, how do you get OTA's, do you have to run official att service sim like gophone? Or can you use straight talk like I currently have? Or do you not even need a sim for OTA's? I don't currently have a sim in the phone, was waiting to get all this sorted first. Will OTA's break root? Would it be beneficial to turn the phone into international version to get OTA's faster and would I lost the 4g lte abilities of phone if I did this?
How do I go about putting these firmware updates on, is s-off required even if you use a signed RUU from "androidruu dot com" for example?
I would like to get the latest official firmware releases on the phone and get it updated to kitkat 4.4.4 from the official releases and then put a custom rom on of my choice.
Is any of this even necessary? Are firmware updates included with the Rom's? How is an RUU different than a rom?
Someone, if possible please help me get this all sorted out, I'm so confused, it would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

You wont get OTA's unless you are stock, you can use this to get back to stock: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2775650 to be able to receive OTA updates.

No firmwares are never included in ROMs, and RUU reset your phone (both firmware and ROM) to fully stock, but you would need an RUU with same or higher version that you are on now. (with S-ON)
what is latest att firmware
@clsA, nkk71 and I have been talking on the #AndroidRevolution irc channel, we/I am trying to get this resolved to figure out if I need s-off in order to grab latest firmware's before I apply a custom rom because it seems att is way behind everyone else since the rest seem to be 6.0.something. Can you confirm what latest att firmware # is for htc one via their software update on the phone? I have reset phone to stock but it's still stuck on 5.12.xxx.xx (whatever the # is, don't remember right now) and claiming it's up-to-date, trying to figure out if boot-loader also has to be locked in addition to stock rom and stock recovery and root removed (cause I did all that but left bootloader unlocked), I've been reading that it does, but neither of us can confirm this. And do you need official att sim/service to do the updates? Additionally, could you direct to a list of signed firmware updates for flashing with s-on if this is not the latest firmware. Thanks!
clsA, just fyi, he used your Guru Reset ROM 5.12.502.2
but doesnt get any OTA updates
I tried it, but since i'm not on ATT, it doesnt even accept my device

Sure ... I recommend converting to the Developers edition for the most updates
after your s-off Change your CID fastboot oem writecid BS_US001
then flash this RUU >> http://www.androidruu.com/getdownlo...8_10.38r.1157.04L_release_353887_signed_3.exe
And then you can take OTA updates up to the current 6.07.1540.2 (3 updates I think)
I'm uploading the file's I used Here >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=24178
Their is also a RUU now from HTC >> http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...4_10.33E.1718.01L_release_404528_signed_2.exe

@clsA, thank you so much for that, I actually ended up following @vomer 's guide and turning it into super CID because it seemed that the firmware updates were newer than the developer ones oddly enough, 6.0.9 and 6.0.9.xxx.10 and then there's 6.0.9.xxx.11 and .12 but this is where i hit a snag, all went smoothly using vomers firmwares up till 6.0.9.xxx.10 but then i tried to flash the .11 and .12 from ARHD and the device bricked/ hangs on boot....ended up having to use adb push to get your reset on there and reset the device, flash the original firmware etc...phone is working again (I was tempted to panic but maintained control ;P) but ultimately means i wasted a bunch of time only to have start over again....for now I've left it 5.12 and stock....maybe you could help figure out what went wrong when you get a chance.
Thanks.!
i left recovery and root on during the reset just in case it didn't work but did flash back the stock radio for that rom as well

Theirs nothing wrong with the Stock 5.12.502 firmware from AT&T in fact it's one of the most stable. You can flash mostly any rom you want with that firmware installed. The reason I recommend the Developer edition right now is because Lollipop+Sense is due out any day now on that model.
how to proceed

Theirs nothing wrong with the Stock 5.12.502 firmware from AT&T in fact it's one of the most stable. You can flash mostly any rom you want with that firmware installed. The reason I recommend the Developer edition right now is because Lollipop+Sense is due out any day now on that model.

@clsA, I was bent on the firmware update to take advantage of latest enhancements with ARHD and they recommended at least v6 xxx .11 eventhough the rom is based on v6 xxx.12, viperone also strongly advised latest firmware updates....does the developer versions you sent me have the calling fix for when the audio in the call was lost because of google update? Also, quick question, why did you include the 4 xxx something base firmware...i can just proceed with the CID change and start at the 6 series firmwares because I'm already at later version with att stock 5.12 right?
Any idea what happened the other night with the bricking - would boot, hang on black screen after first htc logo on white background and then just have the hardware touch buttons lit....was it because the firmwares ARHD posted required the bootloader to be re-locked? (failed to notice this until after I had semi-bricked it)
Also, what backup app would you recommend? looking to restore all my apps and settings after these wipes etc...getting tired of redoing it all again each time.
Thanks!

The Developers Edition 4.x RUU is the last RUU .. then it's 3 updates and your at the current version and ready for the Lollipop update
The ARHD International firmware needs the MID changed to work, You can eather edit the android_info.txt or change you MID to make them work

@clsA, hmm, did not see that anywhere in the post...def. did not change MID...but they did specify needing locked bootloader, any idea why? will either of those cause the boot problem I described? Or can the firmware after 6.xxx.10 be incompatible with the att stock rom and i actually needed to flash a rom before proceeding?
When you said earlier "And then you can take OTA updates up to the current 6.07.1540.2 (3 updates I think)" you mean flash them or can take them via the OTA update service....in the dev edition does the built in OTA update service work with unlock and root?
what version does .401 mean, is that international? I know the .1540 designates developer edition.
What backup for settings and apps would you recommend, would titanium suffice?
Thanks again for all the help.

Lollipop is coming in the next few days. Just go back to post #11 and flash the RUU and the OTA updates
I gave you the link to all the file's I used. Your S-off no need to lock the bootloader and you flash the OTA updates from stock recovery yourself
just download them all to your phone sdcard and flash them in order.
I use HTC Backup is all I need. And google keeps my contacts and calender

Depends on what you mean "Try Out " ? you aether convert to Full GPe or you flash a rom.
If you convert, you simple change your CID and flash the RUU.
If you want to just see if it's for you, flash the rom .. I like this one >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/rom-google-play-edition-lollipop-v1-00-t2963927
But it does require the latest firmware so yes post #11 would get you to the newest firmware
Currently installed is SkyDragon. How can I update the phone to a GPE Lollipop ROM? I have S-ON.

If the OP hasn't updated to 4.4.4 firmware by OTA (and can't do it manually with s-on) broken WiFi may be the result after flashing SD LP.
4.4.4 is reportedly started to roll out today for AT&T (which will update the firmware).

How can I update to AT&T's 4.4.4 without unlocking S-On? Is that possible?
I think I read something around here that says that going back from a GPE rom to a carrier rom is impossible unless s-off.
Can you please confirm?
Really, I have absolutely zero need in AT&T's 4.4.4 if there is any way I could jump straight to SkyDragon 5.0 GPE, without screwing up connectivity.
Another thing is, I have an update notification waiting for me (see pic). What will happen if I flash that? Will that completely screw up my phone, or will that get me to Google's stock Lollipop GPE?

Its certainly possible. Either return to stock ROM and stock recovery, and OTA to 4.4.4.
Or alternately, relock the bootloader and flash the 4.4.4 RUU (back any personal data before RUU, all internal storage will be wiped).

That is incorrect. If you just flash a GPE based ROM, you can freely go back to Sense.
S-off is needed to fully convert to GPE (including GPE CID, bootloader, partitioning, etc.); or alternately, to fully convert a GPE version to Sense.

You don't need the ROM, but you absolutely do need the 4.4.4 firmware. If you don't have it, WiFi will be broken. You might also have extremely long boot times (10+ minutes).
And that is the only reason I'm suggesting the OTA, so you can update the firmware without having to s-off.

With you current setup the OTA won't work:
1) You have to be on a stock ROM or the OTA will fail.
2) You have to be on corresponding stock recovery, or the OTA will not install (phone will loop booting TWRP looking for stock recovery and not finding it).
3) You need the GPE Carrier ID (CID) or OTA will fail. You can't change CID with s-on.
So what you are saying is, my best course of action would be to:
1) Flash stock 4.4.2 (is rooted version okay?)
2) Update to stock 4.4.4 via OTA (is there root available? how do I not lose it?)
3) Flash SkyDragon Lollipop

1) Rooted is okay, as long as no system files have been altered (which should be the case if its called "stock"). You also need stock recovery.
2) You will lose root. Simply root again. Flash TWRP, and flash SU or SuperSU. Or just boot TWRP, and it will probably ask you if you want to root.
3) Yes.
Alternately, since the 4.4.4 RUU is now available:
- backup any personal data
- Relock bootloader
- RUU
- Re-unlock bootloader and install TWRP
- Flash Skydragon
I can't say RUU methos is necessarily any better or easier. Just another option, really. But it might take the footwork out of finding the right stock ROM and stock recovery combo, and restore the phone to "stock" in one fell swoop.
One last question, and I feel sad for asking this because I really should be able to find it myself: where can I find this mythical 4.4.4 AT&T RUU? I've looked all over the forum but I just don't see it.
Edit: I think I got it. Is this it? http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...40.34.C35006.02_F_release_407726_signed_2.exe
Relocked, ran RUU, unlocked, flashed recovery, flashed rom, currently patiently waiting for it to boot.
I think this is going to work, thanks for all your help! =)

What happens when you boot into bootloader and select recovery?
Lollopop has not been released yet for AT&T version. 4.4.4 was just released a couple weeks ago.

Are you trying to access stock recovery or custom recovery?

Run the RUU. This should fix whatever is going on with recovery (assume you want stock recovery, as you haven't specified) as well as get you back on stock AT&T ROM.
My guess is that you just have a custom recovery install gone bad. Since you unlocked the bootloader, assume you tried to install custom recovery (as there would be no other reason to unlock the bootloader).
I tried to install the ruu but the phone doesn't accept it
Tried using adb to install it..

What error code?
Make sure its an RUU meant for AT&T. Hboot version of the RUU must be equal or greater than what is on the phone (no "downgrading" allowed unless you are s-off).
Tell me you hboot number, and I can tell you what AT&T RUU to use.
How did you update to 4.4.4?
I tried the same ruu on mobile 4.4.4
Even tried official lollipop from HTC site
Means no downgrading attempt
Anyway adb gives me 12 something error

There is no Lollipop RUU for AT&T. You can't run another carrier's RUU (unless you have s-off and change CID). So that means you are running the wrong RUU.

From the previous comment, I'm not so sure that is the case.
You didn't answer my question about what hboot number is on the phone currently.
You also did not answer my question on how you updated to 4.4.4.
Hboot 3.19.0.0000
The 4.4.4 has been auto updated before I unlocked the Bootloader

That is not a valid AT&T 4.4.4 software number. Are you sure you have the AT&T version? It has the AT&T "globe" logo on the back; and all the stock AT&T ROMs similarly have the AT&T logo on the boot screen.
You should also do adb getvar all, and post the output (be sure to delete IMEI and serial numbers, as there are personal info and should not be posted on a public forum);.
That's a euro build, not sure of the local of it, anything .401 is euro, .502 would be AT&T. I believe your in the wrong section for your device. I would check in euro/international forum for the M8 for possible rom match.
Hi everyone i have a HTC m8 0p6b120 with WiFi problem, I can't turn on WiFi and Bluetooth
I buy that with that problem the seller say it's was firmware problem but I don't know.
I just s-off yesterday but I don't know what way can I follow for solve this problem can anyone help me please?
Broken WiFI (grayed out) is a common symptom of firmware that is mismatched from the ROM. Either a stock ROM or custom ROM was flashed to the device that does not match the firmware (Hboot, radio, and other modules like media, WiFi, etc.).
This also means the phone was almost certainly modded by the previous user. So hopefully they described it as such when it was sold to you. Otherwise it was dishonest and fraudulent (or at least negligent).
What hboot number show in bootloader, and what software number is shown in Settings?
Hboot 3.19

Former user didn't know what they were doing and flashed a really old stock ROM that does not correspond to the firmware. 1.58 ROM goes with hboot 3.16.

Looks like you are on 4.4.4 firmware.
No need to "repair the WiFi" if you are just going to flash Lollipop firmware and a Lollipop ROM. Once you have matching firmware and ROM, WiFi will work again.
To confirm, you will be using this phone on AT&T's network?

Your OS (otherwise known as ROM, software, or "main version") is 4.4.2.
Your hboot and radio number indicate 4.4.4 firmware (firmware contains hboot, radio, WiFi, media modules, and others) and not to be confused with the OS/ROM.
Its the mismatch of 4.4.4 firmware and 4.4.2. ROM that is causing your WiFi issue.

Various ways you can do this. But my suggestion would be to change to US Developers's Edition CID (or SuperCID) than run the 3.28 Developers's Edition RUU. No need to change MID, as US Dev Ed the same MID as the AT&T version.
This will put you on a stock 5.0 ROM, with no AT&T bloatware, AT&T specific features, or disabled features. It will also mean you are "fully converted" to the Dev Edition, and will even get future Dev Edition OTA updates.

Yes, that is what you want. Change to SuperCID, and run the RUU, and it will be on stock Lollipop ROM with Lollipop firmware.
No need to convert to Sense if you are already on Sense. Converting to Sense is only needed if you did a full conversion to GPE.

All I can think, is to try the AT&T 4.4.4 RUU, or even an older AT&T RUU (4.4.3 or 4.4.2).
If you are still getting random reboots, than I don't think there is much else you can do. RUU will usually solve any software issue, as its a complete factory software image.
I've been having the same issue with the Wi-Fi being greyed out. I think it's my fault, though. I got my One M8 yesterday and wanted to update to Lollipop. I might've done something wrong, and now I cannot use Wi-Fi.
Anyways, my HBOOT is 3.16.0.0000 and my RADIO is 1.16.21331831.A16G.
Should I follow the same steps mentioned above or...? I'm really new to this and I shouldn't have tried it out without researching first.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that I'm S-ON. Don't know if that helps.
