hi ppl .... m using HTC ONE M8 (at&t unlocked),, I want to update it to android 5.0.2 through manual RUU update,,
but updating by this procedure,,,,will it relock my phone again from at&t carrier.
kindly advise
No, RUU will not SIM lock the phone again.
If the bootloader is unlocked, you need to relock.
But if the phone isn't modifed (bootloader unlock, root, etc.) then just backup you personal data (RUU will wipe the phone) and run the RUU.
same issue

you can't install OTA With custom recovery
the easy way to get OTA is like I did it here - >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47992226&postcount=469
or download and run this if you are s-on you need to lock your bootloader if s-off dont relock

Hello, I have HTC ONE M8 AT&T but my carrier isn't AT&T ,so previously i was on 4.4.2 than 4.4.4 released and i downloaded RUU from HTC official site and updated my phone without phone , just now i contacted HTC suppor to ask when Lollipop update will be released for AT&T , so he said i can install Lollipop update for unlocked versions which is released and i won't have any problem ? Please anybody help me will it really work ? Phone is RELOCKED
I think this should go to the Q&A thread
..
If your phone's CID is for at&t and you're s-on there's nothing you can do. Your options would be to pay for sunchine s-off and flash de lp firmware and one of the LP roms around. Once you're s-off you can either change CID to some other carriers with LP or unlocked and get that update. Or you can do what I did to get LP. Once you're on 4.4.4 get a custom recovery and flash viper Rom. It's LP and works perfectly.

Moved here as this does not belong in the Development Section, read the Forum Rules on posting....
I highly doubt it was told to you that you could install the developer ruu on an ATT device,wont work as cid is not same. Best option is if soff change cid to BS_US001 and then you can flash the developer build and not have to wait on ATT builds.

Hi guys, since upgrading to a stock ATT M8 (from a rooted ATT M7) on December, I have wanted to do the Lollipop update, but I do not want to risk the phone by rooting it (maybe I could do it on a last case scenario). ATT recently pushed the OTA update to the M8, but mine is unlocked, and I'm currently using it on Claro PR, so when I check for updates it gives me nothing. So here goes my question, can I manually download and push the ATT update from HTC to the M8 (as it is on stock kit kat)? My only doubt is that since it's unlocked, could it brick during the process, or would it be alright? Thanks in advance!

Is it SIM unlocked or unlocked from HTC? Unlocked from HTC means it has no carrier branding/bloatware and can be used on any network, compared to SIM unlocked where its just an AT&T phone with AT&T apps and branding that is SIM unlocked. If its unlocked from HTC you could just use an RUU to update. If its SIM unlocked from AT&T you could use an RUU but I'm unaware if that would then break the SIM unlock.

Sim unlocked (with ATT Bloatware and branding).
So, should I do it?
Hey Guys,
I want to know a safe way to update the phone from 4.3 to the latest version while being outside US(Im from Europe).
The phone is from AT&T so i cant get the OTA.
The phone is s-off and unlocked. CID is CWS__001
Can I just flash the latest RUU from HTC for AT&T?
I checked this link: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-att/news/
Will this RUU work with my phone?
Thanks for your time and help!
PS: The phone is not mine so I prefer taking extra safeties before trying anything.
Hello.
I have an unrooted At&t HTC One M7. It is sim unlocked along with a locked boot loader and S-ON.
It is currently running on 4.3 Android version and the Software number is 3.17.202.3
I just want to update it to 4.4.2 (kitkat) using RUU File.
I need the link of the RUU file version for this.
I would love to update it without doing s-off and any other unlocking/locking thing.
if there is a way, please do let me know.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
