Hi everyone, first time posting here.
I've recently purchased a HTC 10 from a friend. I'm looking to upgrade it to android version 7
The phone has TWRP recovery but no back up of a stock untouched ROM, ive tried looking for a stock UK H3G ROM (H3G_001) but I've been unable to find 1.
Could someone give me a little help on how to update my phone, possibly an idiot proof step by step guide. i just want the latest version available for my phone.
Thanks

Obviously you'd need a stock backup that matches the version you currently have.
Does your phone currently detect an available ota update?

When trying to update it says:
"Can't update software
there was an unexpected error and the file system may be corrupted. please contact HTC support..."

So, if your system is rooted or modified in any way, you'll need to flash a stock system backup, matching the firmware version you currently have. Then flash stock recovery, and you'd be able to take the OTA.
If your system is already untouched, you would just need to flash the stock recovery, again matching your firmware version, and then take the OTA. There is a recovery for 6.0.1 in that link, but I'm not sure if it's for your firmware version. You could try to flash it and see if the OTA works.
Thinking about it more, if you're able to download the ota I think the best thing to do is to flash the OTA using twrp manually. See instructions in the faq located in the twrp thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ht...ery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3358139/post66347165
If you follow the instructions, you should be able to take the OTA including firmware, and not have to worry about restoring anything stock first.

First of all, apologies for such a question.
Im lost. Its been a long time since i browsed through this forum. I have my at&t m8 running slimkat 4.4.4 and twrp 2.8.1.0. Cant seem to update twrp, stuck on entering recovery. Right now i would like to update to lollipop but i dont knw where to start. Can someone please pin point me the procedures. What i need to do prior. Thanks in advance.
Update: I followed the guide to upgrade via fastboot. Successfully installed but every time I install a lollipop Rom I don't have signal. The only way I get signal back is if I revert with a nandroid backup sense. Under software info in settings my imei doesn't show up
Any help would be appreciated

Have you checked the at&t subforum here for the M8, did you check the stock backup and firmware thread in the general section ?
Get a official stock backup, preferably a lower based one than your software is numbered now and update via official HTC updates again.

I will test out the developer edition once everything else I can try fails. I managed to install lollipop but I just don't have any signal and it seems simcard is not detected. I'm thinking I probably skipped a firmware. So I'll revert back to the oldest firmware on Att and update via ota ...if that fails I will go the developer route. Then I'll let u know. Thanks

Hey there. Sorry for creating such a stupid thread but, unfortunately, I am a complete newbie in modding android.
I have s-off and rooted my m8 using sunshine method. Right now, when I wanted to update to lollipop, a TWPR turns on and I got no bloody idea what to do.
Logic tells me that I have to find a new ver of Lollipop and install it through the TWPR but I got no idea how to find it/install it.
My android version is 4.4.4
Software version 3.28.401.9
HTC SDK API 6.25
Compilation 3.2.8.401.9 CL389833
My phone is not branded.
Id really like to be told what and how to update my phone.
Thanks in advance.

You need to replace twrp with the correct stock recovery for your phone. Check in your settings/about/software information/software number . This is the version number you need to know when you download the stock recovery. There is a thread in the "general" section that has all the stock recoveries. Flash the stock recovery (again, find the thread that tells you how to) then unroot the phone using superSU from within the app . Reboot and then take the ota update. This should then update you to lollipop. Then, if you want to, you will have to flash custom recovery and re-root.
Is this:

I am really lost, lol.
Hello all! I badly need some help! Other forums have been unsuccessful. I currently have a rooted S-off M8 (Uk version) When i rooted my phone i used TWRP and did not create a stock recovery.
After delaying the OTA update due to being rooted id now like to upate my phone as im still running 4.4.4.
If it helps i have the TWRP manager app installed with the latest recovery 2.8.7.0 on. Im getting confused between RUU and flashing custom recovery. All id like to do is to update my phone to the new 5.0 lollypop. I dont mind how to do it or what i need to do just need someone to explain it in simple terms. I do apologize, i am a noob when it comes to this!
Any help would be much apperciated!

Stock recovery won't help on a rooted ROM. You need a clean ROM either a clean backup or RUU.
Post your fastboot getvar all result (minus serial & imei no.), someone may be able to help you

The 2 are not at all related.
Custom recovery (such as TWRP) is user created, and installed to the recovery partition of the phone, and allows you to make backups of the current ROM and data partition; and to flash custom ROMs and other flashable zips.
RUU = ROM Update Utility. Its an "official" HTC executable run from the PC that will return your phone to stock image, including stock ROM, recovery, firmware, and all other partitions. There are also RUUs that can be run from the phone. But that's mostly the exception.
Hi friends, I am getting notifications to update my M8 to marshmallow.Its with unlocked bootloader,rooted and with S-OFF and running stock rom.Currently its running Android 5.0.1 with Htc sense version 6.0 on a Rogers(canadian) network.Will it be safe to update it to marshmallow?Will i be able to root it afterwards?Any suggestions please?Thanks
You will need an unrooted (never rooted) stock Rogers ROM, and corresponding stock recovery, in order to update by OTA.
Otherwise, there haven't been any issues reported (such as root) with Marshmallow. Root requires a newer version SuperSU (2.51 or later), but otherwise there aren't any major issues.

Nope, unrooting won't work OTA will still fail). I specified never rooted for that reason.
You can use a TWRP backup, if you made one before rooting. Otherwise, you'll need to find a stock (unrooted) TWRP backup on the forums.

I'm not sure what you are asking. You can't run the OTA as-is, in order to return to stock ROM, if that is what you mean. This will fail for the same reason a Marshmallow OTA will fail (due to modified software) in addition that version check will probably also make it fail (you can't OTA to the same version already on the phone).
You might be able to extract the ROM for the zip file. But this can be risky, too. Its best you find a previously posted TWRP backup of the stock ROM; or ask someone to post it.

Thanks redpoint!! Please bear with me due to my limited knowledge.I have my own twrp back up which i made just after i got the phone and before doing anything but its an year old backup.I think at that time it was android 4.4.3.But after that my phone took 3 OTA updates.So i can i still use my old stock android 4.4.3 TWRP backup?
I also have recovery.img which i made just after getting OTA update 6-7 months ago.I used "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p43 of=/sdcard/recovery.img" to save recovery image.

That one is probably too old. The backup needs to match your firmware (hboot, radio, etc.) or at least be close.

What part about never rooted do you not understand???
Stop trying to invent ways around it. You can dance around and cluck like a chicken if you want, it still won't make a previously rooted ROM never rooted.
You've been told the proper way to proceed.

I agree.will follow your way and try to find the twrp backup.I am sorry for the hassle.
I'm sure there's a guide somewhere but I couldn't find one clear enough. I recently got my HTC 10 to replace my Galaxy S4 GPE and have a question. This is my first update after rooting my phone, and I received an OTA message today. With my s4, all i needed to do to update was use ODIN. I know it's different with the HTC 10, but want to be 100% sure I'm doing this right. From what I've read I need to:
1. Mount system as read only via twrp and restore my original system-image (which I did make)
2. Flash stock recovery
3. Boot into Android and take the OTA.
4. Flash TWRP and make a backup in read only mode of system-image (for the sake of convenience with future OTAs)
5. Flash supersu.
Is this right? I read some where that having an unlocked bootloader would make an error occur when taking the OTA. Is this right? How do you guys update? Does flashfire work with HTC 10 and how do I use it? I'm s-on, does that matter? I have the factory unlocked version of the HTC 10. I'm terrified of something going wrong during the update process. Any help is greatly appreciated.

That's exactly right.
Never relock your bootloader. It's completely unnecessary and can only cause problems if you don't know exactly what you're doing. And again, it's completely unnecessary. People love to throw that idea out as a troubleshooting suggestion. Don't do it.
That's exactly how I update.
Used flashify to root my Samsung tablet once. I've never used it once on any of my HTC devices, so I can't offer any advice on that. I don't really see why it would be necessary though.
S-on/off does not matter for this process.
I hope this answers all of your questions. Good luck.

Unfortunately the error I read about mentioning a modified file system showed up. I followed this guide and got errors and managed to recover from a bootloop. I think I will just wait a while and use a RUU to restore and update.
EDIT: and now I get the same error with my old backup. I think I messed up the "mount system as read only" part because I do remember flashing System over but if it was read only it should have given me an error?

Well I wrote that guide, so if you want to post what you did over in that thread I'll be happy to help you out. If you're US Unlocked that method should work 100%. I've never heard of anyone getting a bootloop from it.
U probably flashed a wrong stock recovery or something.
Would the steps described in the first post work for international HTC 10 (Europe) ?

So flashing a RUU.zip is the only way for int. HTC 10 ?

Then how to revert an int. HTC 10 (1.90.401.5.) back to stock ? I have my system image backup and original recovery for my version...
Why does this have to be so complicated -.-

It's not that complicated. Are you getting the System Corrupt error when you try to download the OTA?
If so, you have a few options for updating.
1) try the experimental option I'm working on in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/how-to/guide-how-to-ota-receive-corrupt-message-t3378187)
2) RUU (the 1.90 ruu is available now I think, but if not, just use 1.80 then OTA
3) flash signed firmware to update your firmware and then use someone's system backup to update the system files

Im not getting any error, I`m just checking on how to revert back to stock and not screw up something in the process lol.
I thought you can only flash an RUU which main version is the same as your phone or newer (capt. throwback wrote that in his twrp topic).
Anyway, looks like flashing an RUU is the safest way.

That's correct about the RUU needing to be same or newer. What are you currently on? I assumed since you're wwe and trying to OTA then you were on 1.80.401.3.
RUU is definitely the safest way.
