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.
Rom Information :
Android 6.0.1

Thank you...ill try it next week..
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.

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

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:

!!!! ROOTING/FLASHING/DOWNGRADING IS ALWAYS ON YOUR OWN RISK !!!!
Attention: This method will completely wipe your phone!!!
You can find the reworked Tutorial here: http://android-tutorials.org/
Video of the first step is online: Step 1
Video of the 3 & 4 step is online: Step 3 & 4
Known Problems
If you have problems while re-rooting or custom recovery (unrevoke) try to downgrade again with the above procedure.
Make sure you have made a new goldcard.
If you have problems e.g. 140 ERROR please follow these instructions (thx to raz2133)
This will fix your MISC Partition so you can flash back original RUU files.
Happy re-rooting
P.S. i hope you can understand this because english is not my foreign language
Great News!
Im not Root-Bricked ^^ but someone else will be happy with it =)
Edit: Why is 1 Pic from July and one from March!? And different times.
Thank you!!!
Maybe you should add: this wipes your device...
This is great, keep up the good work! =)
Edit: Are we sure those that do not have a carrier locked/branded also needs to create a goldcard?

For everyone how was in bad luck and updated to the original OTA FroYo here is a way how you can revert it.
The User maximini1 has found a thread where they describe how you can downgrade to 0.80 again.
So i try to explain how you have to do it.
Preparation
1. Make a NEW Goldcard (here)
2. Download PB99IMG.zip (here - MIRROR - germany MIRROR2)
3. Rename the downloaded file to "PB99IMG.zip" and copy it onto your SD Card.
Flashing
1. Shutdown yor mobile
2. Hold Volume up and press power
3. wait until PB99IMG.zip was found and checked
4. Press Volume Up <yes> - PICTURE 1
5. Wait until all steps are done. DON't POWER OFF YOUR DEVICE!!! - PICTURE 2
6. After flashing press Volume Up to reboot
7. done
Happy re-rooting

Looks like it's possible for those with an unbranded/unlocked phone:
mbroeders said:
First of all, I have an unbranded simlock-free phone. All I did was
1. download the file to SD card.
2. rename to PB99IMG.zip
3. boot into recovery (turn phone on while holding down volume)
4. just let it load the zip file and press yes when asked to install
Easy as that!

Root your phone with unrevoked, using on of these guides for example:

Ok for the dumb and ignorant among us (a.k.a me) what state does this leave your phone in.
I get I downgrade HBOOT to 0.80 and my phone will be wiped, but what ROM will be on the phone after the downgrade will it still be the OTA rom or will it be another one?
Or do I then need to install a ROM of my choice after the downgrade, sorry if this is a really stupid question, I haven't put any custom ROM on my Desire yet and then I got the OTA update as I was thinking about checking out some custom stuff. Not had the phone long.
Thanks.

After you've done the steps above you will have the following:
Blank and wiped device
Firmware: 2.1-update1 UNROOTED!
HBOOT: 0.80
Basband(Radio): 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2
Kernel: [email protected]#1
Build: 1.21.405.2 CL174215 release-keys
With that you can root and flash anything you want
Thanks for the tuto.
Hello sweety 0.80, bye bye dirty 0.92 ^_^
Worked for me.
Btw, didn't need the gc
Well, if this works AdamG doesn't have to find a way to root hboot 0.92.

Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Has anyone tried this on a branded, but rooted phone?
I've got an O2 branded desire with hb00t 0.83, I can root with unrevoked, but can't boot into recovery =( Hoping this will fix it.
It's works fine! Why doesn't work the recovery bat. on my PC?

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.

HTC Desire 620 Single Sim
Hello!
I've found a way to get the stock rom on a HTC Desire 620! I found this:
FYI: my Desire 620 had no OS (blank) and TWRP 2.8 (higher versions crashed)
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!

Hey, sorry for the late reply, but I was away from the website for some time hoping someone can reach out, and yet there you are!
Well i actually got over the issue with the voice from Google and I have a keyboard now , but there are somethings out of place on my phone, like for example the clock is gone , my precious Notepad is gone as well along with all the important notes, before I attempted to root my device I made a full back up ( the root on my phone is terribly difficult, can't find a good guide that fits my need to do it safely.
My build number is: FRD-L09C1858B387

Can you elaborate more ? should I reflash it? I've read on some issue resolving contents that I have to reflash the update.zip, but can't quite get an idea of how to do it?
I don't want to brick my phone that's why I stopped from rooting it
And I want to get my clock back and more importantly to get the notes from notepad back :/
Thanks in advance!

Did not post any guide..
Its simple..but you need correct files to do it successfully..
Download correct stock firmware file
Correct I mean according to you model and build number.
The firmware number should be same or higher ..
If you have any question post here.

No tool is needed , you just need to place the correct UPDATE.APP (downloaded from honor official site) in a folder called dload a
at the root of your SD card, shut down your phone then hold power + both volume buttons. When the phone is starting release the power button but keep holding volume buttons. It should start installing the firmware.
If it doesn't work you probably need to install a stock recovery and retry.
If the firmware you have chosen is the wrong one the phone won't accept it . (Upgrade failed)
Please take note that if the process succeed it will erase all your data, you should take a backup before
Good luck bro even if it isn't a tough process, and let us know the end of the story

No tool needed for that..its called dload method..
Download firmware
Extract firmware
Put update.app in dload folder
Power up the phone by pressing three button(power button, vol+ and vol- button)
Flashing process begin..
You need a stock recovery to perform dload..

I want to try to root and fix my phone before the weekend started so I can have fun, can I annoy you or anyone else with this?
I need to get help with two things, first get the flash on my FRD-L09 FRD-L09C185B387, emui 5 androids 7.0 and get my notepad and clock back, second, i need to root it, in the right way with no issues.
Thanks best regards
To root it you first need to install a clean ROM without missing apps. In order to do that you need to perform the dload method that I detailed previously.
Then unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, flash superSU and you're rooted
Hi guys,
While Android 8.0 for Bolt and 10 Evo is not out yet ( or maybe never :v ), another dev is maintaining it - S.Team.
Yesterday (15/10/2018), they released the newest build for Bolt and 10 Evo ( as well as 10, Ultra ... )
I'm not the owner . I just download and share.

p/s : SO SORRY GUYS, MY HTC 10EVO/BOLT NOW HAS BROKEN SIM'S BOARD AND CANNOT BE REPLACED. SO I QUIT HTC
Was wondering if this new version was tried by anyone. I had some issues with data on one of the older versions
I'm using this ROM daily, everything is ok.

Mine is HTC 10 Evo and Pro - mode works perfectly.
You can try these ways :
1. Back to stock ROM, then install S.Team ROM as an Update.
or
2. Booting to TWRP, fully wipe your phone and format it. Then install S.Team ROM

I do the 2nd way (twrp) but need del the boot+_china folder in system/priv-app. Then boot+ work againt.
Thanks for rep .
I tried this rom coming from bad boyz. I can't get data going and cannot manually set the apn. I'm on the bolt
Maybe if I dirty flash the data settings will stick? Well.....that didn't work. Giving up for now. Without data, it's sort of pointless to use
I'm on 10 evo with cricket GSM. This Tom won't mess with the GSM capabilities right?
hey guys,
did you choose your carrier in Setting menu for Data ?

There was a fix for this posted in a previous s-rom forum that was deleted. I don't remember exactly where you need to go but what you will need is a valid sprint rom with the proper carrier configs in it. I copied them out of an htc 10 leedroid rom before, but you can use any rom that has the US sprint config files in it. Open up with an unzip program the s.team rom in your pc and copy the sprint config files to the carrier folder where they belong. The rom should auto rezip the file with the new config back in when you close it. Flash the rom with the updated configs. I don't remember the exact path from the file names since those posts are deleted but that is how we got it working on his last bolt rom. I was checking through my folders, and thought I could pull up the config files to send you but I just can't remember where the were. Someone that knows a bit more about it may be able to give clearer instructions. -actually now that i think about, you might be one of the guys that got it working with 7.1! if not check with roadkill42 cause i think he got it working too. I'll have to play around with this download later when I have time since these things take some tweaking to get working.
EDIT: Ok found them, for example in the leedroid htc rom they are located here: LeeDrOiD_10_V5.2.1-R146-Stable.zip\extras\carriers\Sprint
I think its different for every rom, but that is the folder that you need to copy and put in a similar folder in the s.team rom. Not sure where since I haven't download it yet. Like I said, you should be able to pull the files from any other rom that has the sprint configs in them. Can't upload them cause the files 40mb. Of course there may be another way as well...

You download an software on PC named "pack_unpack tool v3.8", then unpack "boot.img". After that, del folder "S.ROM" in "Out-put" folder. Repack it.

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.

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

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.
