[Fixed]Can't update to 5.0 Bootloader stuck - Verizon HTC One (M8)

Hey guys,
So I have been looking around for about 3 days and can't figure out what to do. I was rooted a while ago and tried to go back to stock for updating to 4.4.4. Now I am trying to get to 5.0 and this is what I am dealing with. The phone keeps booting into Bootloader no matter what I do. If it's plugged into a PC or charger and I try to charge while off, it goes right in. This what I see:
*** Software status: Modified ***
*** RELOCKED ***
*Security Warning ***
MS_WLV PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-3.19.0.0006
RADIO-1.09.20.0926
OpenDSP-v46.2.2-00564-M8974_FO.0811
OS-
eMMC-boot 2048MB
sept 30 2014,01:16:07.0
If I try to use the recovery it just loops back into boot loader. I am extremely frustrated at this point and am about to just break the darn thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Do I have to use sunshine to unlock everything again just to lock everyone up?
Thanks in advance,
Cameron

So were you ever s-off before? An why is your bootloader relocked?

Yes, I was s-off before. I tried following the HTC one m8 all in one toolkit to go back to stock and that's how (I guess) I got to bootloader relocked. I was trying to get my phone to let me go to 5.0 but after the OTA downloaded and would restart for the update it would go into bootloader and sit there.

How to root mytouch 4g Slide NEW hboot

Well Im going to quickly explain my way I rooted the new hboot (NOT S-OFF)
In all my time trying all methods I found a couple that did things for me.
First was the all in one kit http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-mytouch-4g-slide-amaze-4g-rezound-and-vivid/
this I used to unlock boot loader and have a recovery img
but it didnt want to root my phone. So i tried other things like the bear wire method which i wouldnt rec. and came across a thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508556&page=3 that said "how to flash ics with s-on" and it was pretty simple so i tried it and it flashed a ics rom and when I went into the it was rooted! Su granted and all.
With that said I hope this can help people who want a little change until a s-off method comes about but this is a whole lot to work with for now.
Thanks to everyone and I hope this helps.
I have :
Doubleshot pvt ship s-on rl
hboot- 1.45.0013
microp-0353

now running PYROS ics rooted

Cool, thanks!
Unlocking through htcdev and then installing recovery and superuser.apk will give you root permissions....not hard to root anymore. If you want s-off it is a bit more tricky but even with s-on you can flash roms just have to do kernel seperately

I did the wire trick also. It took me about 10-15 times for it to actually work though. The 0.4 version of the program worked with me. Just takes patience and truly following instructions. Now I don't have to flash ONLY at my computer anymore. So glad of that!

For me, the first couple times I tried it the response was always something different (from it saying things like "couldn't find bar" to "connect device" even though it was connected). I asked around a little but since it was still kind of experimental there was no definite answer for much of anything. When I got ver 0.4 a few of the same errors happened but not as much. For some reason I found that restarting my computer and then running the program worked. Every time I did it went further in the ControlBear program, then finally when I did the wire trick the phone rebooted but not into fastboot, it just stayed at the boot animation logo while the program finished its work. I think the results vary for everyone...My SD card did crash but I was able to restore it with the info Indirect posted. It was an extra card tho, I keep them laying around.
Ok so heres the link. I still have it ---> Ver 0.4

Good day, and welcome to XDA!
What is the OS on your PC? Windows, Mac, Linux, or something else? Which drivers have you tried? I had good luck in the past with the adbsetup package, but your mileage may vary.
Hope this provides a good start.

Htc Inspire stuck at white (BOOT) screen after AT&T software update

Hi there. I'm a nooob to android phones. After upgrading to the most recent os released by AT&T ( 3.20.502.52) my phone won't boot past the white Screen with the htc logo. It's not rooted. I av tried battery pulls, hboot and tried recovery, factory reset, cache wipe...just about everything that's listed in the boot menu and recovery menus. also when i try to recover it goes to a screen with a green circular arrow which changes to one with a phone icon with a red triangle on it. I'm realld frustrated. don't know what to do now. any assistance would be appreciated.
Have you tried going to the htc websight and getting the official ruu and pushing it to phone. Instructions should be on the sight.

The ROM was not rooted, but has it ever been? What does HBOOT say exactly? (Not the list of options, above that.)
If all else fails, run a RUU.

you should probably update your recovery http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/99
in bootloader run these commands from the pc
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.3.1.0-evita.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot reboot-bootloader
then on the phone try to get the phone to go into recovery. older recoveries had a hard time getting into recovery from bootloader.
if that doesn't work boot into your regular rom and run "adb reboot recovery" make sure usb debugging is turned on.
the website says "You must be S-OFF or have taken HTC's unlock to use a recovery on your device!"
I do not have a S-OFF device. Is it impossible to go into recovery? Should I try this method regardless?

You need an unlocked boot loader to install recovery.
You can do it with S-off also.

Stuck in bootloop after relock

Hey guys, just have a quick question here.
I've been running CM10 on my unlocked One X for awhile now so i decided i would restore my phone to its original rom so i could see what the new updates would be like. So i restored my old stock rom and relocked my bootloader. Now i have the relocked tag as expected but i also have **security warning** and I cannot do anything from there, it's stuck in a bootloop. Just curious as to what went wrong? This isn't the first time I've relocked my phone and I've never had any problems in the past. Any info would be great. Thanks

I suppose I could try doing that. I've never done an RUU before. How do you do that?
*SOLVED*
I have absolutely NO idea how, but I just tried rebooting it again after some time and it now is working. No clue really, but I;m quite relieved.
If your phone powers on, it's recoverable. It's when it doesn't seem to turn on at all that you should worry.

[Q] Did I buy a brick? (HTC M8, Swappa)

Greetings,
(after careful searching of the archives) I still need some help.
I purchased a used M8 on swappa.com (not finalized yet, still haven't been able to boot the thing).
Was running Viper but couldn't boot past init screen - kept giving sense errors. so... I tried a couple of other ROMs loaded via SD-card (CM, Android Revolution) and both seem to install, then nothing. Reboot and only a faint gray screen. Unable to sign in. I can get back to Recovery but if I don't hold the down-volume at startup I get back to that faint gray screen.
Options? Suggestions?
Does OS- mean no OS is installed?

Have you tried the RUU files Here? Thats the only other thing I can think of right now.
If u were running a Rom you should have no problem ruuing unless it is a hardware issue which hopefully it's not.

perfectly fine. in fact no need to ruu either. simply flash custom recovery and sideload a ROM through recovery.
If all else fails the ruu will fix it back up. Since that phone is s off and unlocked and still boots to bootloader you will be fine.

Thanks for the advice. Once I RUU'd it worked as advertised. - btw I chose option-2 (untested, but now it is tested) because I was having trouble with the HTC ABD drivers on my PC. After flashing TWRP was able to get a fresh copy of Viper on it.
Thanks again for the quick and helpful responses!
