What you are needing it not available yet. Also, If you aren't S-off I would be very careful about updating.. Many non-vzw users reporting no cell service after L upgrade due to lack of apn support and they are not editable.

Got My update from VZW OTA on Friday, 3/6/2015 With no Problem. I am S off Unlocked, and it sailed through.
Came in 2 segments. I did however have to go back and do an update search for the second segment, which was over 800MB.
Definately want to use WiFi. Took quite a while to complete.

Sunshine3 when released. Don't take LP 5.01 until S-Off or root may not be possible.

You need to be S-Off for RUU and unlocked boot loader as I remember to gain full root. You can check there are many threads how to gain root.

The only way now is sunshine. You need to do it either you won't be able to get update until dottat make RUU for S-ON users, but I am not sure will you need unlocked bootloader for that.
Hi everyone.
The update to Android 5.0.1 via HTC Sync Manager enable the edit and add APN
The only problem is, LTE not work!
My phone is S-ON and Stock ROM.
Edit and apn ?
What do u mean by enable the edit in htc sync manager and wat apn specifically to add
Maybe contacting Verizon and giving them your IMEI to push you the update

Have a rogers one xl unlocked bootloader rooted. Can i install 1.83 then root and debrand with no problems?
Cheers
Where did you get this update from? I just checked mine and it said no available updates.
hes talking about the att update.
no dont install it
Yeah the att one if i install it what will happen i dont see why i cant when att users can install the rogers firmware but that makes no sense why rogers users cant install att firmware? Weird.
you have to be s-off to install other carrier's rom.
it depends on your cid.
I believe rogers cid is
CID-ROGERS001
Either you have your device in s-off mode...
or you need the signature to match I think...
But why can att users use the superpatch to use the rogers rom. Can someone just create a superpatch for rogers users to use the att firmware
Why do you want att so bad? There's nothing in that ruu that benefits you...

Firstly, the superpatch is for the shipping ROM on the AT&T OneX. If you run it on an updated one, it will replace files with older ones and potentially cause problems.
Without being able to safely run the superpatch, you'll be left with many of the deficiencies that AT&T users experience vs. our Rogers phones. Like no LTE toggle, and probably that issue where youtube links don't open in the youtube app.
I unlocked , installed custom on my phone, then I relocked my bootloader and flash stock att2.20 by running ruu.exe. now, everytime I checked for software update, it always says service unavailable. Do you guys know anything about this problem? Btw, my phone is unlocked and use T-Mobile.

It always puzzles me why do people on custom ROMs want to get OTAs?
AT&T JB isn't rolling out yet. When it does, it will get posted in Development in a TWRP-flashable rooted form.
I also doubt the OTA will feature much (if anything) that is not already present in the JB Sense ROMs already up in Development, plus all of AT&T's bloatware crap and other meddling. Possibly including a new hboot that will mess up even more stuff this time.
Is it possible at all to convert Verizon carrier unlocked M8 to Internation version..to receive updates from HTC outside US?
Currently phone is in global network mode on GSM network in asia. But updates from Verizon are only available on CDMA network.
HTCDev has
One M8 HTC WWE zip 3.4.0 v4.4.2 91.3 MB 1.12.422.19
this file available for download.
My Theory:
1. Install weaksauce and get temporary root
2. Use firewater method to achieve S-OFF
3. Install twrp recovery
4. Flash above zip file.
Will this work?
Another Q:
1. Lets say above method works....will it restore recovery to stock? Because htc updates will only work on stock recovery right?

I wish it was so I could get some GPE going that has everything working. Really the only big killer for me is not being able to browse the web and be on the phone at the same time.
I just don't understand why the 2 versions of phone are so different. I mean the VZW version can work on an international system right? Doesn't the VZW version version have the same hardware as the other models just not being used? Or just maybe VZW is just a bunch of spoil sports? I'm not sure if which but either way I wish I could convert mine to work with the stock GPE.

Exactly my point. If the hardware is same it should be possible to change the software and convert from Verizon to International.

i can only speculate because of verizon's CDMA for Voice and SMS that the international HTC updates won't have the correct radios or bands that work specifically on verizon's band.

What you should do is the following.
Root and S-OFF. Install custom recovery, flash one of the latest rooted Verizon roms from the development section. If you want, flash the radios too.
So, about converting it to international, I'm not 100% sure, but I think the hardware in the Verizon phone is incompatible with the International firmware.

You have a verizon phone right? S-off, latest firmware? If so, flash any other ROM that is meant for the International M8 then look for the corresponding kernel.

Do you have any friends who are on VZW and have either a Moto X or iPhone 5/5S? The reason I ask, is because those 2 phones take a nano SIM card like the M8 does. When a software update comes out, try using their SIM card in your phone to take the update. That's the easiest way I can think of.

I'm pretty sure you'll have to s-off and then root your phone to push the firmware update.

So given that my phone is in the same situation as the original poster, all I have to do is to s-off and root my phone to push the update?
How would the update be done if it's rooted? I just want to update the firmware, I have no intention of adding a custom rom or anything, just whatever sense version is the latest on verizon now

Yes, you should be able to install just the firmware/radios. There is a thread in the android development section specifically for the installation of the firmware/radios. You will definitely need s-off to install them. There is also a thread on that - it's actually really easy. I had my brand new m8 s-off'd and rooted in about 20 minutes.
