Hi guys, I have an HTC one M8 that is bricked. It powers on but doesen't boot.
I was able to unlock the bootloader but when I flash TWRP i have some errors,also when I try to boot from fastboot to twrp it doesen't reboot (error remote dtb not found)
I tried to search an exe RUU for this model ( cid T-MOB101) but none of them are working (I tride some TMOUS ruus)
Is there a way to fix my problem? To change CID or can someone give me the correct exe of the RUU? Thank you.
*EDIT, MY HTC ONE IS M8QL_UL SO I'TS M8S. I fount the RUU but it's stuck on "checking header" how to fix?

I need an H3G branded rom for the DESIRE HD. I have found a post in the forums
but the file seems to be corrupted. Does anyone have this ?
Are you sure that h3g has branded roms?
I bought mine with a h3g contract and the phones in austria seem to have unbranded stock roms.

Yeah my phone came with a branded rom originally. Not sure where i can find it...

Thank you for your answer regarding the easy ace removal tool. what i would like to know is do i have to go install a new RUU from htcdev.com? because i download the one for h3g but the feedback i got was that it wasnt the right download for the right model. and can i continue with the rest of the process on htcdev without installing a new RUU?

Depends. What did the tool say when you tried to run it? If you need a RUU and can't find a compatible one, make a goldcard and flash any RUU that supports hboot unlock.

Wait, if you're S-Off, just flash a recovery and flash a ROM from there.

Wait, how did you try to flash it? That link is for the boot splash, not the recovery. Download a recovery img, flash it from fastboot with "fastboot flash recovery *img filename*" and flash a ROM from the recovery.

i tried flashing it with this fastboot flash "fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.0-ace.img" from the tutorial at http://theunlockr.com/2012/10/02/how-to-install-clockworkmod-recovery-on-the-htc-desire-hd/ and got that "writing 'recovery' ... FAILED (remote: not allowed)" error. i tried the link in my previous promised to set my fon to ENG S-OFF which would in turn solve the "(remote: not allowed)"error and enable me to use fastboot.
Um...is your phone in fastboot mode? Like, did you select fastboot from the hboot menu?
yes i did. and now this is what it says "FAILED (status read failed (too many links))". for some reason im unable to add the screenshot to the post else i would have. what does it mean "too many links"?
still not working
@bananagranola no further tips for me?
Nope. Never seen than error before. Maybe someone else has.
I wanted to flash LeeDroid's rom. After I flashed the boot image I realized that I haven't put the rom into the root of the phone's storage! silly me. I tried rebooting the system but it won't boot. Then I tried the unbrick methods on the forum but found no luck. At last I tried relocking it and restore it using RUU but it still won't work! It is saying that I got the wrong version of RUU, but where can i find the RUU for 1.28? Hope someone can help!!

What country are you in, which network are you on and did you buy your phone sim free?
If you go into fastboot mode and then boot into CWM using the command:
fastboot boot <CWM img file>.img
You'll then be able to use adb to push the rom zip onto your device which you can then flash with CWM.
If the RUU says you have the wrong version you probably have the RUU for another region/carrier.
It's pretty much impossible to permanently brick the one x (without s-off) so don't worry, you'll get it working eventually.
Thanks man. I am in Hong Kong and i am pretty sure it is sim free. after I tried running the RUU i have relocked the bootloader. for some reason I can't even get into recovery right now! When I try the RUU it saids the image version is 1.28.708.10 and I get error140

You can't install the 1.26 RUU after you've updated hboot with the 1.28 OTA.
Try installing this RUU: http://hoxroms.serveftp.com/RUU_END...Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_257077_signed.exe, it's the same region but a newer version.
Flash the stock 1.28 recovery image and relock your bootloader before trying to install the RUU.
The 1.28 recovery image can be found here: http://hoxroms.serveftp.com/Asia_1.28_RUU/recovery_signed.img

Thanks so much!!
but i have already relocked the bootloader without flashing the recovery image ... would that make a difference?
If the RUU runs successfully then don't worry about it, if it throws another error then flash the stock recovery and try again.

I see the image version I already have is higher than the version image I am trying to install from the RUU.
How can I fix this?
CID HTC__J15
See : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30999119&postcount=1888
I am downloading it now, however the name Europe in the RUU made me think that this RUU doesn't support Arabic keyboard while the ROM I had before had Arabic keyboard.
There is no Arabic Keyboard in this RUU but can find it in various thread.
Most important is get your device up and running.

Hi,
I'm trying to restore from custom rom to stock rom.
My phone is CID ORANG216 and I'm using xx.xx.65.xx RUU releases.
I have 2 relevant files:
The RUU exe - RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_S_Orange_CH-Generic_2.17.65.2_Radio_2.1204.135.20_release_275590_signed.exe
OTA UPDATE for the device - OTA_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_Orange_CH-Generic_3.16.65.2-2.17.65.2_release_296426gf2xgpisn8xs0fti
After flashing the stock recovery, boot_signed.img, rebootRUU, the RUU update fails because of version failure, I suspect that the HBOOT version is the trouble maker.
My phone is unlocked with S-ON with HBOOT 1.36 and the HBOOT in the RUU is 1.12 .
Due to S-ON I cant change the hboot.
I can't seem to find a workaround for it and install the RUU.
Any ideas??
I even thought about compiling the latest JB release from htcdev development center and flash it...

You need to relock the bootloader to use install RUU . It has nothing to do with hboot . Just take note that you have to use the RUU that is on the same build or higher .

doesn't work... I'm getting "Error [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR"
The only RUU exe available is the one i mentioned and its old
I don't know how to use the OTA file without the original stock rom already installed...
if it helps anything the command "fastboot getvar version-main" on my device gives:
version-main: 3.16.65.2

Like I mentioned . You have to look for the version that's the same with yours or higher to use the RUU . I guess you can't go back to stock until you find the RUU of your version or higher . Maybe you could try a stock ROM nand backup ?
Here are stock backups

I don't think your questions relate to the subject here.
Anyway, custom roms are based on the stock rom and most of the times include a file called firmware.zip, look it up in the costum_rom.zip file.
hboot updates are tricky on this device and for upgrading it (from ICS to JB supported hboot) you need a special firmware built for your specific htc one x model (look at the manuals for more instructions).
For the battery saving, I think it depends on the rom you install and not the kernel (or maybe both because they come together?), check out for old posts about that issue, I'm sure its not the first time someone asks about it.
hope it helps
I have installed viper rom a few months ago and recently I wanted to get back to stock rom.

I tried to restore to stock using twerp recovery img (I have twrp recovery installed), but the recovery didn't recognize the .img file..
Any ideas on how I restore it? Or does anyone know a frimware that matches my device? (unlocked htc one m9 bought in USA).
