I am also having this same problem. And i think it maybe because our phones are rooted. I am not sure though.

I think he means, you need recovery as it was PRE-ClockworkMod. Any threads?
(correct me if I'm wrong)
Then that's a different matter altogether. Will need to figure that out. Does that involve unrooting the device after recovery?

I'm going to do this tomorrow to update. It should work.
So did it work
- Backup everything using CWM and Titanium Backup.
- Install the RUU to get back to Stock Recovery. (You'll loose all settings/apps/SMS/etc..)
- Install your OTA update.
- Restore everything using Titanium Backup.
This should work for any of you who has CWM Recovery. If you already have Stock Recovery, then you're ready to go. You don't need to flash a new rom by the RUU.
It's not the root that is causing the problem, it is the CWM Recovery.
Keep in mind, flashing a RUU may brick your device, I take no responsibilities of any damage that may be caused to your device
I just discovered a new method, tried it and it worked.
Take a look at this.

Return to Stock

I'll tell you briefly my experience
I bought an unbranded HTC One S online. When it arrived I was surprised to find that it was T-Mobile branded (european version). So I sent it back asking for a no brand one, which arrived 1 week later. When I turned it on (it was half-charged) I found this written:
"this build is for development purposes only do not distribute outside htc with out htc write permission failure to comply my lead to legal action"
I checked the bootloader and found it was unlocked.
I think they sent me back my T-Mobile one unlocked with a stock rom.
1) How did they remove T-Mobile brand?
2) How can I see if my phone is rooted?
3) Can I receive OTA upgrade even if the bootloader is unlocked?
4) Is it possible to return to unbranded stock with locked bootloader and no root permissions (as an original unbranded phone)?
thanks
They prob rooted and debloated all the stuff on there removing all them apps many Roms have the option for this when installing them. To check if your rooted there is an app called root checker in app store download that. U can return to stock debloated by running ruu and u will have to get the tmobile ruu and specific country but it is de bloated and yea u can do the original HTC updates If your still on stock I don't know if u have to lock bootloader tho personally I think u should get custom Rom because a lot more customisation and Developers build their Roms around the latest HTC updates

I'm having trouble installing Elemental-X

I am running kickdroidXL on my at&t hock, and everytime I try installing Elemental-x, I can't not boot past HTC's splash screen. I've tried all default settings, and none work. I'm currently on whatever firmware the 3.18 ruu comes with.

Also I'm unlocked, s-off, super-cid, and have official twrp 2.3.3.0 recovery
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Is there a reason you didn't post this in the Elemental thread instead of creating a new thread? Which build of Kickdroid? Which build of Elemental? Have you read the Kickdroid thread regarding the steps you need to take to stop signal problems and reboots?

Latest version of both. I posted here as you're not supposed to post questions in the dev thread as it clutters up the thread. I posted here because it is help and troubleshooting, which I need help with.

And I don't have any issues on rebooting or signal dropping.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Interesting, you'd be the first person to not experience signal loss on a Sense 5 ROM without upgrading your firmware. You could try updating your TWRP to the 2.6 version, see if that helps.
Sent from my Evita
Well, honestly, I don't have phone service so I can't know if I do or not.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Um, you don't have service but you claim to not be having issues with signal? Am I missing something here?
Sent from my Evita
Um. I never said anything about signal?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
What do you mean by service?
Sent from my Evita
As I do not pay for phone service. No calling or texting. Only using WiFi to call or text.

If I can chime in here. It looks like he's not even able to fully boot into the ROM after installing the kernel. I haven't used Elemental before. Does it have an aroma installer with different setting options?
Also looks by not having service he means that he is only using the phone via WiFi for apps and such.

Yeah it does and you're right. I can't boot past the HTC quietly brilliant splash screen. I've changed every setting possible and it simply won't boot.
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda app-developers app
Have you tried a more recent version of TWRP as timmaaa suggested?

Have you updated TWRP yet?
Sent from my Evita
Yes, that was my bad and I mistakenly thought I had 2.3.3. I really meant 2.6.3

The official version or the modified version?

Official.

T-Mobile Rom

Any way to flash a T-Mobile stock ROM onto the Verizon M8? Thank you.
Nobody?
Sent from my SM-N900V using xda app-developers app
I'm pretty sure that would mess up a few of your partitions. I know on the Sprint m7 people would accidentally flash tmo or international roms, and it would mess stuff up to the point where they had to RUU to get their device back.
