I would but I don't have time to go back to the store tonight if it doesn't work.
Or will anything bad happen if it fails?

Why would you try a method to S-OFF intended for other devices with this one? It would be a nice starting point to screw up the device though :good:

Bad idea. You can brick the device.

You should try firewater. If it doesn't work for you then you are out of luck. Either pay the $25 once and then flash whatever you like, or you will just wait for the official OTA
the $25 is worth it :good:

Definitely worth it. Did it myself to debrand my T-MOB One (M8). Worked flawlessly!
Any progress here?

you have to try it to know. as far as i heard 4.4.4 is not always possible to s-off using firewater.
it also depends on your cid.
Okay, I will try. Tomorrow I will get my M8 back from the repair company.
Firewater don't work, it's only Sunshine that can get you S-Off.

I have an AT&T CWM_001 m8 and I want to flash cyanogenmod 12 (a lollipop rom) but it won't let me because my bootloader is out of date. Could somebody tell me how I can update it or how I can successfully flash an android 5.0 rom. Thank you.
Update: I think I need firmware 3.19.000. How do I get this?
Are you on 4.4?

Yes I am running 4.4.2.
He means 4.4.4 the firmware you are on is super old if you're s-off just download a 4.4.4 ruu and you should be good if you're s-on its a pain

Easiest ways to s-off?
Sunshine
Since you're on 4.4.2 firewater is free its fairly easy as well but you do need a windows PC and adb and on it as well if you don't have that,sunshine should work but it's 25 dollars

Firewater is offline ! Firewater will never work again !!!
He is on 4.4.2 it should work

No, firewater = offline ! Firewater needs to do an online check with the developers server and that is offline.
So therefore firewater will not work .....ever !
Oh I didn't know it did an online check

No problem, now you do
Sunshine is the only way to s-off now that is the easiest way to get to lolipop you can stay s-on and download a 4.4.2 backup for your specific carrier then flash stock recovery check firmware version to get the right recovery for your firmware

So if I achieve s-off then flash a 4.4.4 ruu my bootloader will be updated to 3.19.0.0000 and I can install the cyanogenmod 12 rom I want to install?
