I rooted / S-off and installed a custom ROM from day 1 with this phone (Verizon HTC One M8).
I have been using the phone for awhile and haven't flashed anything. Today, i started looking into upgrading to a new ROM and realized that I needed to update my firmware before hand. I used this to get back to stock with the new firmware - (http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...ent/ruu-m8vzw-4-4-4-s-off-onlynewest-t2914914). I used the SD card and Hboot loaded the RUU from the 0P6BIMG.zip.
I am currently running this official software with s-off and root. I installed TWRP with flashify. I booted in to TWRP recovery and attempted a backup and it failed. I attempted to flash a new ROM (i verified the MD5) and it also failed. After some reading it seem as if the stock HTC kernel has write protection turned off preventing TWRP from accessing these files.
I think i will be fine if i get another ROM installed....The new ROM will have a kernel with write access. I would even be happy with replacing the kernel on the official ROM (therefore enabling write access).
I don't know, I'm stuck. Please help!!!

Yes, seems that you might be right.
Maybe flashing a cusom kernel will be enough to gain read/write access in TWRP recovery.
But first:
Are you on the latest TWRP version? (Check in the Verizon One (M8) Original Android Development > [RECOVERY][m8wlv] TWRP 2.8.3.0 touch recovery [2014-12-22] thread.) There was an update yesterday to v2.8.3.0.
The new version has updated support for latest SuperSu app. Check that you are on the latest SuperSU app (viw Play store) too.
If both versions (TWRP and SuperSU) are up-to-date and you still have the access issue, then you should try to flash a custom kernel.
Check this for available kernels: Verizon HTC One (M8) > Kernel.
And here is a discussion thread about ROMs and kernels for your device: Verizon One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > ROM's and kernel suggestions.
In case that you still have questions or need detailed help, please ask in the Verizon One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.

how to install android 5.0 for htc one s like.
my current machine is using the original room now want to install 5.0 how. machines without root, unlock and install CWM.
who have integrated software for all we ask, to thank everyone help
help me!!!!
You're not being very clear in your question, is your device already rooted or not?
If rooted, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-s/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-lollipop-htc-one-s-t2946468
this is a thread about the CM12 rom which works on Android 5.0. You will have to flash the TWRP 2.8.1.1 recovery as said in the Installation Guide (instead of the CWM recovery)
you can download the latest versions of the rom here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B_THDHRTYTJTNXZBdnZNbFM0VGs&usp=sharing make sure you download the correct version depending on what hboot you have (2.15 or 2.16)
However this rom is not yet a stable finished build, so bugs can occur.
If your device is not yet rooted, and you're not really familiar with it, the best you can do is use the "all in one rootkit for htc one s" which can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604677
Good luck! :good:

Hi,
I am first timer in the installing custom rom world and I purchased a factory unlocked HTC M8 and unlocked the bootloader and installed the twrp recovery. few days later I tried installing a custom rom without realizing that my device is S-ON. the ROM i tried installing was not stable, when i tried to install the stock rom back that dosent work either. hence now i am currently in a soft brick state. and would like to know if i could use tools like Sunshine to get to S-OFF state?? I basically would like to able to install a working ROM if not a custom one then atleast get back to the stock version.
Please help.!
