[Completed] [Q] I Need Help in updating my HTC One m8 - XDA Assist

Hello,
This is my first time using XDA developers, or any type of forum to be honest, so please do tolerate my very bad knowledge of the terminology and concepts behind almost everything I've seen on the forum so far. Also, don't roast me if this in the wrong section, I'm a major noob :silly::silly:
B, Anyways,
I have an HTC One M8 32 GB from Verizon that is GSM unlocked and unrooted. The phone is running android 4.4.2, so I went to the settings to try and do a software update, but that option is greyed out and says "Update only works in CDMA mode". And then I found this link, not sure if it helps, but can anyone help me as to how I can update my phone? Thanks "

It also contains a video guide for how to update.

Thanks for your help, however I just have two questions.
The first one is do I need to have rooted phone in order to run an RUU?
Also, the thread you posted seems to be for stock android, which does not include the HTC Sense UI that is included in the RUU of the thread I posted?

AFAIK root is not needed. But IDK about SenseUI.
Please ask in the Q&A thread or forum I linked in my previous answer.
Thanks for your understanding. Thread closed.

wifi connection on my HTC one XL doesn't work after upgrade to android 4.2.2

Dear friends
I upgraded my HTC ONE XL to android version 4.2.2, htc sense 5.0 , build number 5.05.707.1 and since i made it, my wifi connection doesn't work. I checked if there are threads which can help me I've found nothing. tell me what to do to repair it.
You've posted in the wrong section. Questions and troubleshooting threads go in the q&a section. I'll ask a moderator to move this thread to the right place for you. I'm future please post all questions in the q&a section.
Now onto your question. You need to provide more information. Is your phone stock or is it modified? If it's modified which ROM/kernel are you on? What are your bootloader details?
Sent from my Evita
Thread moved to Q&A section.
As timmaaa mentioned, you haven't given nearly enough info for us to help.
If the phone is stock, and you upgraded via OTA, then I suggest backing up your personal data and doing a factory reset. Existing apps and setting play havoc with OTAs. Factory reset will give you a clean slate to work from and solves many random bugs resulting from the update.

[Completed] Kernel compatible with HTC One m7 (Sprint) running LiquidSmooth v3.2 (KitKat 4.4.4)

Is there a Kernel compatible with HTC One m7 (Sprint) running LiquidSmooth v3.2 (KitKat 4.4.4) that would allow for overclocking and wake gestures? Inquiring minds must know! Thanks!
Hi,
I see from your previous Assist thread on a similar topic that you know the rom thread. That would be a better place to ask for help with the rom.
Or look through the development section and check out the available kernels and their features and compatibility.

[Completed] [Q] Liquidsmooth Rom Compatible gsm

Hey guys, new to the forum and have a question and was hoping you guys could help.
Phone: HTC One m7
Rom: Stock 4.4.2
Network: Telus (Canada)
I want to for the first time flash a custom rom and really like the liquid smooth rom. My question is though I dont know which htc one rom for liquid smooth to flash that is compatible with telus. The optitions are: Sprint, Verizon, and Unified GSM. Futhermore, my phone is not unlocked to all carriers so would i have to do that to make it work with my sim?
Also does liquid smooth have a built in update feature or would i have to keep flashing new roms every time they release a new update?
Thanks!
I am not sure of teleus. But if its a GSM Carrier, then the unified GSM Rom should be ok for you.
It might be better to pose the question on One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting so that the right experts may be of help.
The thread in question for you is [ROM][4.4.2][OFFICIAL] LiquidSmooth | KitKat | m7 Since you do not have sufficient post count, you might want to post in the forum linked above.
You may also follow the tutorial to get your count up. Postcount limit in developmental fora

Thank you, I created another post. Telus is gsm. Do you know if I would need to unlock my phone from telus or would the unified gsm cover that?
You do not need the phone Unlocked. The Unified Rom will not Unlock it either.
