Additionately I think we need a boot.img to flash, because everytime I restored a TWRP backup I had to do so. When I didn't I got stuck on boot.

Right. If anybody needs it, he can download the boot.img offered in the viper rom thread, right under installation instructions. It's stock and can be flashed in recovery mode via 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'.

Received OTA update to 2.31 after changing CID to HTC_Y13, restoring stock recovery, bootloader LOCK and flashing 2.2 RUU. Hence a complete update with updated RADIO fimware (not a modded 2.31 OTA update flashed from custom recovery).

Thanks dude. One thing to note is that I'm pretty sure a nandroid does not restore radio or recovery. So even though it updated those things for you when you were completely stock and ran the actual OTA, I believe that anybody who flashes this nandroid will keep whatever radio and recovery they have when they flash it. If they are on hboot lower than 1.13, they can separately flash the 1.06es radio in TWRP.

should the bootloader be locked? or can i just restore this with un-locked bootloader hboot 1.13 and root?

You are supposedly restoring this back up from recovery and long as you have a custom recovery twrp you can use this.

Additionately I think we need a boot.img to flash, because everytime I restored a TWRP backup I had to do so. When I didn't I got stuck on boot.

ok but like chrikenn said with this backup the radio won't update right?

Besides flashing custom roms, never had to flash boot.img separately when restoring nandroid backup.

Yes, looks like you will need to download 2 files, The Rom and the V2.1 update. Be sure to do a full wipe to ensure things run smoothly.

The error is that the install is checking your Hboot, which was changed when you upgraded your firmware for Maximus. You need to reinstall the old firmware. This is the older Hboot, normal TWRP or CWM recoveries, and your partitions need to be changed for the old format.
What I have done a few times is:
flashed stock recovery
factory reset from bootloader... waited for it to do it's thing.... when it rebooted to phone I held down the power button to reset it.. held down volume down to get back into bootloader.
made sure it was in fastboot usb mode
ran RUU.exe
If you run into troubles running a RUU.exe you may need to change your CID to match the RUU.exe. The clear storage/factory reset is important.
You can also go to this link to install the old firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2322755
bootloader clear storage
fastboot flash your new custom recovery
Then load whatever rom you want and install it.

[Q] Help: stucked TAMPERED LOCKED S-ON

Hi guys, a few day ago my One SV had some problems, rebooting itself and runs very slowly; so i tryed to do something like root it, but not knowing what i'm doing 'cause i don't have much time.
Probably installing a wrong rom, now I'm stuck in the bootloader with S-ON Tampered, Locked, and Security Warning flags.
The phone stuck with htc logo, i only manage to go into bootloader, pdanet gives me sync error, twrp recovery doesn't work anymore.
Is there something I can do now?

As long as your device is Locked, you can't flash a custom recovery.
So unlock your device at htcdev.com, flash Twrp recovery and flash back a working rom.
Use a Android 4.1.2 rom, otherwise you will have problems with noisy sound.

How do you mount the sd?
At least pull it out of your device and put it into your PC and copy needed files in this way.
One thing i could not solve earlier (because of bad internet connection): did you already install the Android 4.2.2 update or what was your software running on your device before? Thats important to give you the right rom for your firmware!
I'll give you the links anyway:
4.1.2 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254384
4.2.2 -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512742
Rumrunner & moonshine are confirmed working for your hboot, but which you should use at least also depends on your previous software.

Im sorry That error is from the twrp recovery when i try to install superuser.. It says unable to mount int sd.. I think internal memory

Ignore it. Only use the files, recommended in my index thread (use SuperSu, not Superuser), link in my signature.
And answer the other question.

I installed the 4.2.2 versions, seems completed but phone remains with black screen showing only the top bar with the clock, then reboot itself; sometimes after reboot it shows the bottom clock and lock, you can also unlock it, but then it reboots;
One time it shows me the backgroud.
Maybe it's a motherboard problem, what do you think?
Thanks

anyway after installing the rom, from twrp internal storage is 0 MB

Then i'm running out of ideas
As the roms worked for other people, i also start thinking thats something bugged with your device.
You checked md5sum of the roms? Using latest TWRP recovery?

How can I check the md5 now?

I don't know the name of the tool (i'm at work), but you will find it with google search, i think.
In recovery this is not a problem, its only to check on your pc, if the downloaded file is the same as the upload.

[HELP] HTC on e8sd MM update install ERROR

hey guys, yesterdy I got a notification for android 6.0 upgrade and it was a ~100mb file for preparation so i downloaded it and charged my battery and tapped to install it, it reboots and wants to start installing but then goes to recovery menu and gives an error
the phone is all stock, no root or bl unlock or anything
I attached the error msg below:
it's m8sd not e8sd, mistyped in topic

Might be due to bad zip file! Download the update again and try!

I had a similar error as yours doing exactly the same thing but mine was a e8sw running LP5 Sense6 rooted stock with xposed.
Even when I uninstalled xposed and disabled supersu, I still could not install the upgrade.
Finally managed to get the upgrade by going all the way back to stock and allow the OTA updates all the way up the MM6 update. Took me nearly 2 days to do that.
I have taken clean twrp backups of all the stock updates and will try and post them here soon.

thank you for the information, but as I mentioned in op my phone is already all stock, I havent ever moded or rooted or anything, it's stock locked bootloader

Have the exact same issue. My device is compelitely stock. Tried flashing the recovery from the downloaded OTA but still got the sama error. Hopefully someone will be able to resolve the issue.

if you have problems in installing OTA updates, follow these steps
1. check if your CID and MID are matching each other. they should be both for same region. mine are for vietnam. mec_dugl / HTC__057
2.Flash an stock RUU from http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-e8/help/htc-one-e8-mid-cid-ruu-ota-twrp-t2903210
3.Skip all registeration process and directly go to update menu.
4.this is a 3 stage update process: a small update for some applications/another 100 MB update for making device ready for main update!! / at last 1 GB main update . each one should be downloaded and installed separately.
5. after downloading 100MB update, DO NOT restart. coneect your phone to PC and go to download folder on phone internal memory, there should be a zip file containing updates(sadly I forgot file name), copy it on your PC and extract recovery.img from it.
6. boot your phone into bootloader and flash stock recovery you've extracted using fastboot.
7. now you have complete stock ROM. go to setting/update again and follow update process.
8.after updating you may flash twrp and supersu.
9. I don't know why, but there is a good chance that after messing with system files in MM you get stuck in several kinds of bootloops and soft-breaks. Don't worry; all you should do is going to recovery and wiping caches. sometimes you need a factory reset too. also have in mind that a complete boot after changing system files may take up to 15 minutes even without wipes.

@sam5154 well thank you for the info, Im gonna try these steps except, I will try to download again and flash recovery and try it before flashing a RUU and lose everything
but I hope it works anyway, btw mine is also vietnam region.

Hi, thanks for this. I will try this once i got home.
But i have one questions, mine is Vietnam MEC_DUGL with stock lollipop 5.0.2. The RUU only available for stock lollipop 5.0.1. Can I use this RUU or should I look for specific RUU for lollipop 5.02?
Thanks!

If you gonaa try that, then remeber to unroot and uninstall xposed, and you can use titanium backup for restoring your apps and data of course.

Here you go :
If you want more information, use ADB (if you don't how to get it going, use the search on the forum or Google about it).
While you phone is connected to your PC, type adb reboot bootloader and wait for your phone to reboot into bootloader mode. Once there, you can perform fastboot commands like getvar. Type fastboot getvar all and you will see all the information about the phone, including the product variable which lists the model you have.

btw I did go through the steps of downloading the 110mb update and flashing its recovery before pressing install and that didnt work and still gives OP error
so I guess I have to use RUU but not gonna do that for a while and also Im not so sure it'll work because the phone is already factory stock!

Yes bos, i also did the recovery trick but still cant make it work. So the only solution we havent try is to flash RUU which i doubt also will make it work since my phone also factory stock. So i guess will stay in 5.0.2 for a while.

Hi, I have managed to finally update my Vietnam HTC One E8 dual SIM (MEC_DUGL) to Android 6.0. The problem that cause the error is the error recovery file, hence I re-install the RUU to get the correct recovery.img file. Below are the steps :
Note : Try with your own risk
1. My device is currently stock 5.0.2 no root and locked. Before starting the update process please make sure to backup all of your important data. Im using the stock HTC backup software, when you restore your device after you finished your update process, it will re-install your currently installed apps , contacts, settings, etc.
2. Download RUU for your device here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-e8/help/htc-one-e8-mid-cid-ruu-ota-twrp-t2903210
I downloaded :
[Vietnam][DUAL][M8sd][mec_dugl][CID HTC__059][OPAJ20000] :
[Lollipop 5.0.1][2.35.425.2] : LINK
Seems not match with my current software (5.0.2), but eventually it will do the magic.
3. Flash RUU. NOTE : You will lose all of your data in your internal phone memory. Make sure to backup all of your important files.
Steps:
1) Download RUU.
2) Rename RUU to 0PAJIMG.zip (the first character is a zero, NOT A LETTER O)
3) Put renamed 0PAJIMG.zip on your external_SD
4) Boot into your bootloader and make sure your in hboot and let it update its RUU.
5) No PC, no adb, no fastboot, no terminal is needed, just a root explorer to rename and transfer the renamed RUU file to external_sd
6) After you have updated your RUU, make sure to remove the 0PAJIMG.zip from your external_sd because it will ask to update your RUU everytime your reboot to your bootloader which it is technically supposed to do but its unnecessary after you have done it once (unless you are planning on flashing RUU again).
7) Done!

4. Reboot your phone, now your phone is back to factory stock, connect it to wifi, no need to set up any account, just go directly to software update from Settings > About > Software Updates. Just install all the available software updates (5.0.2 > 6.0 part 1 > 6.0 part 2).
5. BOOM! Your HTC One E8 now runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
6. Restore your phone from the stock HTC Backup Software.
7. Done

Please help: How to return htc u11 to stock

Hi guys,
My phone now is on LeeDroid custom ROM (Build 1.03.401.6.9_g CL923215)
What are the steps to return the htc u11 to stock please?
The original software number of my phone is: 1.11.400.4
EDIT: I went to: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72425224&postcount=5
& downloaded stock recovery & nandroid TWRP backup (for 1.11.400.4).
However, I couldnt flash that nandroid TWRP from TWRP recovery.
Long story short, I just got the phone today, I made a big mistake by not inserting the simcard in & testing to see if the phone working or not.
So, I went straight through the process of unlocking bootloader, installing TWRP, Rooting, Installing custom ROM without making a nandroid backup.
For all that, the phone did not recognize the sim cards (tried both my sim & my gf's sim. not working)
The store will take back the phone as long as I return it to stock.
Thanks for your help!!!

You'll need to download the stock rom for your verison (ruu). Hopefully one is available. Check the guide section here.

Restore the TWRP backup, check everything is working, then flash stock recovery if you need to. The stock Nandroid should include recovery asfaik. I'm more of a trial and error guy lol. Read guide pages to know for certain, check HTC 10 guides, same steps.

Get the one from here and follow instructions. That's what the thread is for. https://forum.xda-developers.com/u11/how-to/collection-htcu-u11-ruu-firmware-t3612048. Sorry i don't have time to do the leg work for you (i'm out atm), but it's all there.

download this Official RRU firmware and install it https://forum.xda-developers.com/u11/how-to/unlocked-htc-u11-software-update-6-19-t3624814

Use the ruu, you might need the HTC drivers but in the future never not make a backup, 15 mins could save u a major headache

Finished downloading & now I got an ERROR installation, something like a wrong ROM, probably because I'm currently on LeeDroid custom ROM (Build 1.03.401.6.9_g CL923215)
Please advice
Thank you

Your going to need a full signed RUU zip matching your original firmware and CID buddy.
Based on your original build number its an Indian dual SIM device so here is the ruu:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634780026
1. Rename it to 2PZCIMG.zip
2. Lock your bootloader
3. Drop the zip on your external SD card.
3. Boot to download mode, at that point you will be prompted to flash... Accept... Profit.
If you don't have an external SD.
1. Lock your bootloader.
2. Boot to download mode.
3. Open a cmd window and run the below commands.
fastboot orm rebootRUU (hit enter)
fastboot flash zip (drag the zip into the cmd window then hit enter)

On the PC side, what was the exact error message?
you can ignore the warning from the phone side.
I had a similar issue the other day, but then I was able to run the RUU upgrade to rest my phone back to stock as I had to ship it back for a refund, to get the new Red ones
When I ran the RUU thing it wouldn't detect the phone, did a few things, and then it was finally able to detect the phone.
and when it started updating the Boot image it hung for a long while, I had to restart the phone back into download mode, then run the RUU again, and it was able to continue from there.

The 1.03.401.6 may be European software. You will need the RUU for your exact phone model from: http://www.htc.com/us/support/updates.aspx
