Hi there,
I'll try to sum up the things.
Yesterday I tried to update my M8 from KitKat to Lollipop. Previously I had rooted my M8, but S-ON. So I read that unroot and relock boot loader would be necessary, and thats what I did. After that, I was trying to get my OTA, but never came, maybe because I'm outside the US. Then I was reading the main post about downloading the OTA in Zip format, change the name and wait for the update.
Thing is, my M8 never boot up. Even after 13min. Then I saw that I've lost my custom recovery with that. I had to flash it again, but just after Unlocking one more time the boot loader.
And here I am. Trying to get Lollipop with no luck. My info:

And honestly I'm lost. I've tried flashing the OTA.zip with TWRP and Philz Touch and I keep getting errors and abortions during installation.
Any help is truly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

In order for you to take the ota you must be 100% stock (system and recovery) and be locked. That's why it's not wanting to flash for you.

Hi All,
I did a research on the forum but couldn't find the answers. Could someone please help me?
The scenario:
I was S-On and rooted then relock and RUU back to install the recent OTA.
Then I tried to unlock and flash the Amon Ra Recovery using Hasson's AIO toolkit v2.1.
Now my HBOOT is look like below and my phone is rooted and able to operate normally.

Questions:
1) Can I still install custom ROM with the "TAMPERED" status? If not, how to solve this?
2) I saw some screen shot with HBOOT 2.27, RADIO 2.22.10, and the date is Aug 6, 2012. I supposed my phone has been updated to the latest but it seems not. How can I get there?
Really appreciate your precious time and generous help!
1) Yes, that particular message does not affect functionality. It reads "Tampered" on the stock bootloader if a custom recovery is installed.
2) Those are from the global update, which you can download a full RUU for that from here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
Hi everyone, I recently rooted and installed TWRP recovery and then flashed CM11 Nightly on my HTC One. But then I decided to return to stock ROM and in the middle of the process, my OS was deleted, and I don't have a working Recovery anymore, so I am just stuck on the bootloader, and have been trying to solve this mess for hours.
I can't flash any recovery.img's, as I keep getting FAILED/Errors.
Can't boot into Recovery (no recovery installed)
Can't boot up (No OS installed)

I've tried flashing RUU, but I kept getting the ERROR 155 message. Thus realizing that I need an RUU of the same version of Android. And I can't find a 4.4.4 RUU anywhere.
Any help, please?

Did you run this [RUU] T-Mobile USA | 4.4.2 | Sense 6 | 5.14.531.11 because it is the latest version that T-Mobile has released. If that doesn't work then try this method.

I was able to fix this issue yesterday, it took me a bit to finally find the file from HTC's website. I forgot to update this post, but thanks for replying man
I was trying to unroot my phone and return to stock HTC Sense because I was having issues with the latest cyanogenmod and didn't want to deal with it anymore while I waited for the Samsung Galaxy note 4 to come out. After reading several tutorials I downloaded the latest Cingular RUU from a link on another thread here. I connected my phone through fastboot and ran "fastboot oem lock". After that when I ran the RUU it made it to where it begins the process and after the process started it gave me "error 158: image error". It's now stuck in fastboot and I can't find a way to get out of it, I've only ever installed custom roms through custom recovery so any concepts you say to try will probably be new to me so link to a tutorial or something. (I did try two RUUs from two different sources).
On my phone I see:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** RELOADED ***
*** Security Warning ***

You have a very old hboot 1.44
you need to flash an old RUU first then a more recent one.
after the first RUU you should consider getting the phone s-off as it gets harder with the newer 1.57 hboot
http://dl3.htc.com/application/RUU_...13_10.38j.1157.04_release_334235_signed_2.exe
After you flash that your phone will try to update to 4.xx.502.x
if you want s-off don't take the update, instead unlock the bootloader and flash a custom rom and bulletproof kernel and get s-off with rumrunner or firewater
This worked thank you, you're awesome.

Hi All. I'm sorry to ask this question again but I've been to the other threads and they are pretty old and I'm finding some of the links are not working and I don't want to start until I have everything I need.
I've had my Rezound for many many years and it's time to move on so I need to get this thing back to lookin like I never tampered with it. If someone could point me to a thread that works or help with this that would be most appreciated.

I think, you must unlock bootloader first here (your phone is s-off now). Video on youtube (see untill flash custom recovery)
Then see here: How to remove your "tampered" banner.
Video on youtube from 10:48
After lock the bootloader: from fastboot "fastboot oem lock" (command without ".") and flash stock rom
Finaly your phone will have the status: relocked, s-off, stock rom.
Thanks g-ray666. That worked just fine although the link for the latest RUU never worked. I found an older version which is fine. Is there any way to get S-on?

Are you s-off or s-on, as in is you're boot loader locked? This may be fixable if it is. If you're running a custom Rom/recovery it is unlocked

Mine is s-on and unlocked. I have read other thread for different phone , that it can be fix by flash it with stock recovery. But I cant do it properly because I couldn't find my stock recovery to flash. ??
Which htc one max do you have? Sprint, Verizon, gsm, international. Somewhere out there someone has a copy of the original. If yours is Verizon I have that one.
I believe reflashing the recovery Will fix you're issue as its a common failure with a bad Rom/flash/install
Are you currently running a stock rom/recovery or are you running just a custom recovery or recovery and Rom?

Mine is international HK 3.20.708 and currently im running custom recovery but for Rom, as i remember, i never flash any custom Rom before. This is the link i use for root and flash custom recovery. http://wccftech.com/root-htc-one-max/ There is no Custom Rom provide at that page, so i guess i only running custom recovery .

I have found my ruu in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2643973 , but the link at that thread not exist anymore. I just wish one of them can give me the exist one. I already try text them in private. but i guess they don't active anymore.
Find a different recovery and try it instead, not sure if cwm or twrp has one for you're phone but they do for most
locked bootloader
Dear please say me how did you unlocked your bootloader ???? i am locked , i tryed htc dev and rumrunner but no good result !
