[Q] [HELP] Can't upgrade HBOOT to 3.19 - Verizon HTC One (M8)

Hello, I'm trying to get the newest TWRP and CM 12 but I need HBOOT 3.19. Right now, I'm on 3.16.
I have S-Off
I've tried the firmware update from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/development/ota-3-28-401-6-t2899900 but I get FAILED (remote 41 model id check fail)
Am I applying it wrong? Is there a different one I should install?
I have TWRP. I don't want to put a stock rom on and update there, I just want to flash something.
Help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT:
Okay, using this instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159 I got updated! But I now I have the the red text again... Is there a different 3.19 version without the red text?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723159
Try there. The link you posted leads to the regular m8 section which doesn't include firmware for the Verizon specific variant. That's the latest firmware and bootloaders and such for our phones. Try loading those and then seeing if it gives you the same error. Other than that much I'm not much help.

Firmware version for Moonshine

Hi all, first I want to thank to this community that helped me to solve a lot of problems just reading the posts
I have a little problem, I've an HTC One S (S4), already unlocked and rooted, I would like to install the maximusHD ROM so I'm following the procedure of SuperCID and S-OFF. I tried the standard SuperCID procedure with hex editor but cid didn't change after the procedure so I understood the nand it's locked.
I want to follow the moonshine procedure but now I have android 4.1.2 with TrickDroid 10.3.2 and I don't know if it's possible with this firmware or not or if I need to upgrade to another before..
If someone knows, please let me know, thank you guys!

If your Hboot version is 2.15 / radio is higher than 1.11 , then sadly your phone is write protected and no chance to do the supercid which is necessary for Facepalm s-off. Moonligt method works in just some cid wariants ...

In first, thanks for the quick answer,
in second, yes, my Hboot is 2.15 and my radio is 1.15 and I know that my phone is write protected, but it has also the T-MOB101 CID that is supported (as I can see on moonshine documentation).
Now, on moonshine download folder it's wrote for T-MOB only " ROM Version 3.14.531.11" , what it refers to this number? where can I check it? I read also that's possible some kind of down/upgrade to ROMs supported by moonshine, but, before I move, I really like to know from you if it's possible and what to do.
Thank you again

1, Search for simillar cases than yours in the moonshone's thread.
2, On the phone go to settings,than the last one -software information,there you will find everything about software version,hardware etc.
If you rooted and has a recovery installed , than I suggest you to find a rom which has appropriate bult number and try to moonshine

1) I'm still searching for something similar but it seems no one had the same "problem" (that is not a problem, is a lack of information)
2)Yes, I know the base things, I already rooted some phones so something I know the one that I didn't know is the reference to that number (" ROM Version 3.14.531.11"), but now you said that it's the ROM built number so I could find a rom with the same one.
Yes the phone is still rooted and recovery installed.
I found something, could I use this ROM? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250573

That ROM is the T-Mobile official release from June. The link you posted to McKinney's ROM is based on the T-Mo release. I used Face Palm when I s-off'ed, but if it were me, I would RUU back to the official release, and then use Moonshine instructions from there.

I took that ROM only because it's adviced in this thread for the 'moonshining' http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42818435&postcount=74 , you think that the RUU would be better than this? if yes, can you show me where I could find it? and is it needed a particular process to install the RUU?

CID T-MOB101 means that your phone is from TMobile Germany and not Tmobile USA.
So you need from moonshine the file: HTC One S TMO_DE (3.16.111.10).

Yes my phone comes from Germany so it's possible that's TMobile germany, but are you sure of this? Because it's automatic to think that CID T-MOB101 needs the T-MOB version, but if you're sure, I'll trust you
So, now, do I need a ROM version with this new number (3.16.111.10) before moonshining?

The most easy way is to restore a TWRP backup with this ROM.
I have upload here a TWRP backup from my phone. (Boot ans System only - no Data partition)
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B17QCerxI07CQXl4eS12UEFWclk&usp=sharing
You must : - Restore system
- Flash boot.img
- Wipe Data partition
Try it.

[Q] LG G2 vs980 to tmobile

Hey guys,
I am on the 4.4.2 stock rom with 24a modem/baseband. I am trying to get down to 12b modem and install the tmobile 4.2.2 from yirsung listed here.
The problem is that I have tried to download this ROM 3 times and each .zip file doesn't work properly. I assume there is something wrong with the link. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

i use this to flash stock. im guessing you can downgrade with it, never tried. as the only tot files available go from 11 to 24, you will have to use 11 and ota to 12.
you would have to ask @steve_o1 if it worked. i don't have a use for the tmobile part of it.
I'm going to try to downgrade tonight. I didn't consider the .tot method because I wasn't sure if you needed verizon service to ota update the phone. I don't have verizon currently.
I will update soon.

i have done ota's on phones without service through wifi, but i always have a burned sim in them, i dont know if that mattered.

[Q] Flashing bootloader locked Cricket Moto G/LTE to retail firmware

I want to flash my Cricket Moto G (xt1045) 4.4.4 to the retail 4.4.4 version for a few reasons. Mainly to get access to tethering and the chance that I will be able to update to Lollipop since my hope of cricket releasing the update is fading.
I've been searching around and cannot find a definite answer to this. Lots of people say it should work but I have yet to find anyone who successfully did so. Some say to flash all files but the bootloader and it should be good while others say being the official Motorola firmware everything will flash without a problem.
Has anyone took the plunge and tried it? I would, but I really don't want to be stuck with my Lumia 520 backup phone if I screw something up. Thanks!

Yes, that is the page. I'm assuming the software install would be the same for all models in the Moto G group. The ROM files are located in a thread on here titled "Moto G 4G/LTE Stock Firmware (XT1039/40/42/45)"

Thanks for the link. Maybe I will give this a try, I'm buying an android stereo for my car and need wifi tethering to run the GPS.
If you wind up trying it before I do, let us know! This would theoretically only update the ROM, we'd still be stuck with a locked bootloader, right? If we could find a 4.4.2 ROM, then the Sunshine S-off unlock would work, and we'd be set.

No problem. I will report back if I try, you do the same if you beat me to it! Yes, the bootloader would still be locked, but the software should install since it is an official Motorola signed software. I think I recall reading somewhere that flashing to 4.4.2 would not allow unlocking through sunshine though.

macgi , I gave this a try last night and the results were extremely not good. Wasn't able to flash the retail firmware, got a bunch of "prevalidation flash failed" on some items, but not others, and then it wouldn't boot. Tried to reflash the cricket firmware to revert back, and got the same prevalidation error for the boot image and the partition gpt.bat file, and now I can't get past the fastboot screen.

I'm assuming you tried using the link above? Or did you try flashing each individual file and skipping the bootloader file which was talked about in the firmware thread? (I believe it was around pages 20-30 if I recall)
Found it
@JoeSyr, maybe I'm missing something here specific to Moto G LTE, but flashing a firmware image does not require an unlocked Bootloader. I would do it manually, skip most of the steps, and only flash the system.img initially.
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk3
The only way you can get into serious trouble would by flashing the motoboot.img (Bootloader) and phone no longer loads fastboot mode. But even then, is there not a hardbrick mbm-ci recovery option for Moto G 4G

I tried running the ROM Install.bat file the guy put together in the first page you/I linked to, which did attempt to flash the bootloader. It sounds like this person you're quoting is saying the flash should be operational even just flashing those three chunks of the system image file? I think those files wrote okay, but it still didn't boot. Problem might be with this other partition file i mentioned.

no, haven't really gotten a chance to mess with it, yet. I popped my sim card into an old samsung galaxy Blaze I had laying around as a backup, and I've been getting by with that for the time being. I think I've still got to figure out what the next thing I should try is. Might try asking around in some more of the subforums, here.

I tried flashing with some more tools, different firmwares, and different combinations of commands, no luck.
I found a guy in the stock firmware thread that had the exact same problem as me, and has the same cid as my phone, cid 10, which no one else seems to have. They think it might be why the preflash validation failed.
Other users suggested that if a cricket lollipop firmware image is developed at some point in the future, that would be able to flash without error. I reached out to the user to see if he ever resolved it, but didn't get a response.
Anyway, the sense that I got is that my problems were because my cid didn't match. Is yours cid 10 as well? you can check from adb. If it's not, you might be fine attempting it.
It's been a while since I checked, but I believe it is cid 10 as well. Now just hoping cricket releases Lollipop soon.....
The lollipop release for the retail (non carrier) version just came out OTA yesterday, apparently, so hopefully Cricket is not too far behind...Though it will probably take a while to go from an OTA update to a downloadable firmware image.
I contacted Motorola tech support today, they said they would replace the phone for $75 + taxes (flashing firmware via adb fastboot voids the warranty, of course), and told me it wouldn't have the Cricket firmware on it, so worst case, i would be gaining tethering ability, best case, they might send me a variant (xt1039?) that is capable of being rooted and installing a custom ROM in addition to tether. I'll probably take this option if I'm not able to get it working once the lollipop xt1045 firmware file shows up.
That's not a bad deal. Hopefully you can get it working when lollipop comes out though. Thanks for the update!

OD3 FUll tar link
Hi Maybe i missed this but i do not see a link to the 'full tar' anywhere on this thread or in the Sprint Galaxy s5 development threads. i used odin to flash the od3 lollipop kernel then installed the deodexed zip (after wiping of course) but it hangs on the 'Samsung Galaxy s5' screen indefinitely. any advice?
nevermind, i found the full tar link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...nt/od3-stock-tar-file-odin-flashable-t3128657 not posted in thread but it is in the Sprint Galaxy S5 Lollipop dev list.
Hi there. I went to recovery and wiped the phone and partition. Then i updated with the od3 zip file and then reboot the phone. Everything loaded up fine even though when it was installing there were a couple of errors with signature and something else. Anyway it stuck on the sprint screen then i rebooted it and everything loaded up fine. But the phone is not rooted. The thread i downloaded from said it was a rooted stock rom. Super user said it could not find the binary. And i used root checker and it said it is not a rooted device. I then rebooted again and the same thing is still happening. Im not sure what im doing wrong or where to go from here. Please help. Thank you.

In the od3 tar link i posted above, a couple posts down it is mentioned that the tar is not rooted but some had advice with chainfire's root and something else, check the link i posted. it is also noted that once the od3 firmware is installed, it can't be flashed back to previous firmware. hopefully you have success with rooting!
Still shows as OA6
After flashing the zip as per the instructions, my software version and baseband version still shows OA6. The build number does show OD3. Is this correct?

Forgive my ignorance. .. I'm somewhat new to a lot of this. What do you get from flashing the OD3 modem? A noticeable difference in reception or just knowing you have the latest modem firmware ?

New modems may strengthen signal, I've got better signal from new and from old modems before. And I accidentally hit the thanks button, lol.

@brooks1005
IF you want baseband at OD3.... download the odin modem.tar file at bottom of @tdunham post HERE to your pc...
Pull your battery out. wait a few seconds. put battery back and boot into odin/download mode. vol down+home+power
then use odin to flash the tar...it will work. You will now have OD3 baseband.
Just note that it's been said that once you go to OD3, you will not be able to downgrade it again... so ???
Battery life with OD3 Android L Deodexed?
Wondering how the battery life is with this ROM compared to OA6?

HTC U11+ cannot flash RUU to get to stock so I can apply OTA

Hello there.
I have got another problem once again with getting my phone into stock.
I have the HTC u11 + from Taiwan, it's on 1.24.709.93.
So before I had Magisk installed and Unlocked bootloader. It modified my bootloader and then an update came up the update 1.24.709.994. So I wanted to update to it because it's annoying that it just pops up every now and then with a popup. So at first I tried to install it via normal ways by just clicking it to install it. It didn't work, it just went up to 25% when it was trying to install and then the Red exclamation mark came up. I know you can't install an OTA if you bootloader is modified. I got the 1.24.709.93 boot.img and flashed it over fastboot and then it successfully flashed it.
So I downloaded the RUU 1.24.709.93.rar one and then changed the name to 2Q4DIMG.zip then I put it into my sd card. I boot up to my download mode and press the VolUp and start flashing the 2Q4IMG.zip file. But I keep getting the 22_RU_Header_ERROR, 22_RU_Header_ERROR, FAIL22 RU_HEADER_ERROR. I don't understand why.
Can I get some help please?
Thank you very much for reading this.
The company HTC has never released its firmware in rar format. What you downloaded is a repackaging of the firmware files. Try to flash it was not worth it. The original RUU should only be a zip and signed with the appropriate key. For example 2Q4DIMG_OCEAN_M_DUGL_O80_SENSE90gp_htc_asia_tw_1.24.709.93_Radio_8998-002772-1712201227_release_528412_signed_2_4.zip

Thank you for the reply my friend.
However I really can't find any RUU files for the HTC U11 +. Could you maybe point out where it could possibly be?
Thanks once again.

You guys are the best. Thank you very much for the help. I didn't know that I had to specifically get that .zip file that had that appropriate key.
It worked flawlessly and now I updated my phone so it's perfect.
Thanks once again guys. You are the best!!!:laugh:
