Verizon HTC One M8 Official Marshmallow Bugs & Features - Verizon HTC One (M8)

I updated today to the 6.21.605.3 MM OTA from Verizon, it went smoothly (after I figured out how to get the update to install). I noticed some differences from the Unlocked One M8 MM update. I also noticed some bugs. I'll make 2 lists & if anyone knows how to fix some of these bugs feel free to post.
New Features:
1 - Android 6.0.1 Emojis (HTC Style only for the Smilies)
2 - In Recents we have a Gear for Settings instead of the 3 dot
3 - USB Connection gives you 5 options plus Just Once or Always Buttons
Bugs:
1 - Lockscreen doesn't show after timing out when turning screen on, only shows lockscreen when you press Lock Button (FIX, just go into Settings/Security/Screen Lock set to Pin and then change Lock Phone After to "Immediately". You can change your Screen Lock type to anything again)
2 - HTC Weather don't show in App Drawer (FIX, download Activity Launcher then Create Shortcut to HTC Weather *THANKS Benovite*)
Unlock Wifi Hotspot / Flashlight in Power Menu / Power Saver:
Flash In Any Custom Recovery, Wipe & Reboot (this is the only way Power Saver will show up *THANKS dottat*)

I noticed a bug too. After the MM update, there a list of HTC apps to be updated in the Play Store. These include HTC Mail, Calendar, Connect, DLNA, MirrorLink, Speak, Tasks. None of these apps can be updated because they all fail the initial download because of a failure to connect to server.
I also noticed another thing. If you try to clear the cache by going through the bootloader>recovery menu, the phone just gets hung on the screen with a red triangle on it. You have to push and hold the power button to reboot.

The HTC App Update issues seems to have been fixed. I was able to update the HTC Apps just now.

Was sense 7 supposed to be in this release?
never mind, it is! lol

Does anyone know how to enable Power Saver, old SQLite Editor way doesn't work?

Woops, thought this was the M9 thread. It's working in my M9 MM Fluent ROM with this method, but I also edited HtcPowerManager.apk, so not sure which one of these or if both are needed to enable it.
HtcPowerManager.apk may need an edit as well.

Is Verizon the carrier that your using the phone on? If your using this phone on a different Carrier Provider it explains why your System Update isn't working.
Original thread from which the RUU for Official 5.0.1: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...zip-ruu-m8vzw-5-0-1-s-off-onlynewest-t3047103
Download this one: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347813946
Then in the thread for RUU I linked above follow "Option 1" to flash it to your phone

I thought i just had to copy this to my laptop's hard disk and connect my laptop to my phone via datacable and open the bootloader by pressing the down volume key after the restart .
Please correct me .
Thanks

Installed it this morning, took long as heck to do both updates.
Seems to run smoother but for some odd reason it seems to drain battery faster (got 11 hours instead of 12 with normal use) on me and now is heating up during video playback and when using the quickcharger.

The screenshot also appears to have a 1% battery increment mod and the carrier banner has been removed from the top left of the notification bar. Are those mods included in this zip as well?

Not from this one, nope.
I replaced the framework-res.apk as well. The problem is, now the music widget doesn't work, it still shows on the lockscree, but the prev and skip buttons wont work. this is not a motorola widget, this is a stock ics widget

Yeah the lock screen widgets for beyondpod/google music doesn't work with the modded lock screen here also. Still prefer running the modded one, would be nice to have both ways though.

I've done the same, and now, I can't check for update (it say "you need a motorola services account" and if I click on "configure", it will loop for a long time ...).
Any idea for where do this come from ?

@OP
I didn't get enough information as to why the firmware upgrade was failing. I was also going you could pull an xml fastboot for me from your existing setup if you are still rooted.
Please download this software https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tranquilice.toolbox and make an xml backup of you're current phone. I also want the XML backup but it it's very large, so you should break it up into 100mb files using 7 zip and re-compress it. Then post it to your Dropbox. Don't worry this backup doesn't have any personal data.
Then you can download the update file from my Dev-host account here :
http://d-h.st/JNV
And save the file to your external sdcard.
Boot into recovery, then try to apply the update from sdcard, and write down exactly all the information it says (maybe take a picture of it using another camera). And send me all the information.
How to boot into recovery:
1) Power off phone completely
2) press and hold both volume buttons and at the same time press the power button.
3) use the volume down button to navigate the the recovery option, then press volume up.
4) an Android on the side will appear, now tot can proceed with updating
How to apply update in recoveyr mode:
1) press and hold both volume buttons while pressing power button
2) a menu will appear, use the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select the option to update from external sdcard
3) find the update file and press the power button on it.
4) watch the update, if it fails please tell me all error messages, hopefully tot can take a picture for me.

I have actually uninstalled some default apps like SMS, file manager etc.

Did you try to modify the update package? It looks like the update package doesn't have the same signature as it should.
Do not try to open up the ZIP file provided, just place it on the external SD card without touching it.
If you get another error after that, please the new error.
I'm having the same problem cause I deleted the bloat ware from my Rogers phone. From what I've been reading, I'm thinking about just staying on the 4.0.4.

"FDR" -> Factory/Full Data Reset does not replace applications that have been deleted.
The only way to fix is to put them back or RSD/Flash back to stock.
I hate these threads.
People remove apps and wonder why the upgrade doesn't work.
Don't remove factory applications, freeze/disable them!!!!!
Removing them will remove the ability to upgrade until the OS is back to stock.
The installer checks to make sure that the system and application area is untouched.

Google “htc rom download”, the first page you got is htc website where it provides all official roms, so you should find the one for your device.

Yes, it is possible. First open the RUU installer. Keep it open and put it aside. Then you press control and r to open up the "Run" dialog box. Type in "%temp%" (without speech marks) and hit enter. A windows should open up with a lot of folders and files. Towards the top will be folders with VERY LONG names of random characters. Check each one for a file called "Rom.zip". Open up the zip and you will find the img files, in this case, HTC's stock recovery.

Would be eternally greatfull , pretty much given up on getting root on this phone. No one seems willing to make a recovery. I don't have Linux experience, so can't do it. Tryed every single one click root method and none of them work. Had an admin at ir-file make me one but it didn't work.

Well.. the outcome wasnt good. The recovery i tried didnt work. I just used a guide online xD. Maybe you could have a go.
yeh i'm just gonna wait on updates for kingroot, used it recently on a lenovo tablet and it worked really well. Kingroot is on version 4.1 hopefuly future versions will work with the desire 620. I'm not so much fussed about a custom recovery, i mainly want root to change the sd card permission issue that kitkat has. And also uninstall the amazon bloat ware to make more room on the internal 8GB.

1. Go to: forum.gsmhosting .com/vbb/f485/firmware-needed-htc-desire-620-a-1953187/
2. Scroll to 06-27-2016, 22:54 skynett_md (thanks SkyNett for your files!)
3. Click on 'Here' in the sentence 'Here I made TWRP backups for version 1.02.401.1 and 1.51.401.5, OTA file that phone downloaded is in same google folder with backups.'
4. I downloaded the '1.51.401.5' TWRP recovery files
5. make a recovery in TWRP recovery
6. paste the '2014-12-31--18-00-33_KTU84P_release-keys' dir next to the other subdir in 'TWRP' -> 'BACKUPS' -> {subdirname}
7. Choose 'Restore' and choose the '1.51.401.5' recovery
8. If your Desire 620 is like mine, it will boot to a installed OS in spanish
9. Choose the spanisch 'backup and restore factory default'
10. The phone will boot to TWRP and the reset will be executed
11. The phone will boot to the OS and you can choose your language
12. After the install, I had some issues with the on/off button. This has been solved (software issue)
Succes!
SkyNett: thumbs up 4 u!

MARSHMALLOW TWRP - HTC E8 (M8sw mec_dugl) - bloatware removed & rooted

This is a TWRP backup for the HTC E8 Dual SIM (M8sw - mec_dugl) which was remodeled to EU version.
You can remodel your Chinese M8sw following this thread [*please see #1]. If you run into problems then check out my post here [*please see #2].
1. Make a TWRP backup of your current system to your SD card. (This sets up the correct file system you need and also a good safety measure)
2. Unpack the TWRP I have provided and copy to your SD card INTO THE RELEVANT FOLDER!! (Next to your previous backup)
* PARANOID MODE *
Perform a factory reset and then reload your previous backup so you can check it's working OK then go to 3.
* LAID-BACK MODE *
3. Do a FULL wipe but do NOT reboot.
4. Reload the TWRP with Marshmallow.
5. Reboot
6. Enjoy
Please make sure you don't factory reset otherwise you'll lose root. That case go to recovery and flash superSU again.

Is this backup works on HTC E8 Dual SIM (M8sw - mec_dugl) without remodel?
i have a Chinese version dual sim, in 5.0.2 and i want to go 6.0.1 with this backup, is it works or not?
thanks
I could not test it as mine was already converted to EU. You could test, but I think you gonna need to change the CID & MID and you need to be S-OFF to be able to do that.
If you feel adventurous you can try but first charge your phone and download this so you can recover if the flash fails. In case you have the triangle with the red exclamation mark then rename the image to 0PAJIMG.zip put it on your SD card's root directory and keep pressing Vol Down. When it reboots it will flash back your original ROM.
Report back please.

Don't try. You must be S-Off and change CID & MID.

Yes, but will have flash Stock EU RUU. If remodeling your phone, update will take place automatically. I remodel phone and now I have pure Android 6.0.1

That's true. I posted this for two reasons, firstly to save time to go through all the hassle of updating (3 or 4 times depending your ROM) and secondly to get one without the HTC bloatware and rooted out of the box

No, you do not.
Although keep in mind that the update process will start automatically if certain conditions* met and after the update you'll be fully official (kernel/recovery/system). You will lose all personal data on internal drive
* conditions needs to be met
- rebooted to hboot
- image renamed correctly
- image in root directory of SD
- you chose to run the ruu when prompted

I went through the procedure By DutchDanny:

Well new story this morning...i did the remodel of my friends phone...everything ok...on step 5 i flashed the zip as in this forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63323416&postcount=27 (L50_SENSE60 ROM).
After that the phone found the update ,downloded but gave me a mesage that it could not be flashed because the system was not "original" or something like this...well the point is that i had no root, original recovery and only unlocked bootloader...in my phone everything was ok and all updates was made with unlocked bootloader...so i relocked the bootloader...but again nothing...the same message with problem of not original system...so i flashed MARSHMALLOW TWRP - HTC E8 (M8sw mec_dugl) - bloatware removed & rooted....
Everything ok...it was late night so i leave it open with wifi on and no google set up etc ,left it to do it today in the morning...when i woke up the phone was dead ( i left it with at least 75% of baterry). i push the power buton ..nothing...i put it to charge..nothing....when i conect it to the power suply not even the power led lights up...the phone is dead...can someone explain what happened or what i can do to restore it??
Its my friends phone and he is going to kill me :crying:

Can`t update software

Hi guys,
Ive got here Android version 8.0.0 and OTA 2.33.401.19 . Try to upload to Android pie but it shows a popup with (there was unexpected error and the file system may be corrupted. Please contact HTC support for further assistance). HTC want me to send my phone and sent me those prices ...had couple of bad experiences previously with their support(HTC M7, U10).
Does anyone have got this problem?
Go to Settings => About => Software Information
and tell us the Software Number.
Install Simple CID Getter from Google Play Store and tell us the CID it shows.
Then we'll find you an appropriate RUU and OTA to update your phone to Android Pie without needing HTC's help at all.
Thanks!
HTC_034 and software number 2.33.401.19
Hi,
I do have exactly the same issue on an untouched U11 single Sim. HTC support is not able to help me.
Current software version is 2.33.161.11 of a German Vodafone Rom with CID VODAP102.
So I am desperately looking for OTA to from 2.33.161.11 to 2.33.161.12 and then to 3.36.161.1 or a RUU for 3.36.161.1.
Any help is more than welcome.
@breno_campolina: have you tried to clear the cache of the those two system apps: update and download manager (Apps -> 3 point menu -> show system apps)? You might also want to try to download the update within the safe mode. I have tried all of this without success.
Cheers

Dual SIM right ? If yes, backup your data to your PC and flash this RUU in order to get a fresh start and from there use the Software Update check in Settings to upgrade to Pie.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=673956719939818418
To flash the RUU, the easiest way is to put it in the root folder of a MicroSD card, put it in the u11, power off, boot to Download Mode with Vol Down + Power together and follow the simple instructions on the screen to flash the RUU.

@htc_one_mini_m4 just put it on the sd card and boot on download mode, but it didn't do anything. Could explain me how to do it, please?

Sure,
Here are the necessary steps.
Firstly, rename the file you downloaded to 2PZCIMG.zip
Reboot to download mode by powering up the phone with the Vol Down + Power button together.
Once it has loaded it will ask you if you want to perform flash RUU, just press the Volume Up button once to do so.
Wait, keep looking at your phone's screen.
It will reboot when finished, be patient while the flash is ongoing, and if it gets stuck on a black screen, DO NOT do anything, it will take some time until it reboots.

Have you formatted your SD Card on your phone ?
And placed the renamed zip file in the main ( root ) folder of the SD Card ?
Follow this video guide, it's good

Yes!!! Now getting used to android 9.0 :laugh::laugh:
Thank you!!!
Really sorry to just drop this here but I can't find what I need...please push me in the right direction. I have HTC U11 Unlocked, S-ON, I was using TWRP and Magisk for the longest time and fine. I'm afraid based on my latest user expriences with my phone I need OTA badly to get up to speed. Obviously I can't take it, the download gets corrupted. I am back to stock recovery but still rooted. Software Number 2.42.617.7, Android version 8.0. I did nothing but unlock and Magisk to this system since I got it in 2017. Please help me acquire the OTA and apply it or get to a state I can take it over the air.
