Hi,
I have a big problem but first let me write my story:
I have an HTC One M8s phone and I wanted to root it. But before that I updated my phone to android 6.0.1 and sense 7.0 because it was an official update and I was like why not? So I had been searching and searching for "years" until I decided and unlocked the bootloader. Then I wanted to flash a recovery to get it rooted. I downloaded an M8 recovery and flashed it. Later when it got stuck on the HTC logo screen I realised how idiot I am because M8 recovery is not compatible with M8s phone. So whenever I try to boot it in recovery it gets stuck and I can't factory reset the phone. I tried to install M8s recovery but it gets stuck too. However the phone still works well. I just don't know what to do from here. I think it is because of the official update.
Please help! :crying:

Hello I am kinda new to this website so I came here to resive some help
so I'm telling you forward that thank you if you care to help me.
I have HTC one m7 international not sprint or something like that.
So let's go to the problem i have my phone rooted and I updated
To Android 4.4.3 and it works like a charm. Recovery menu is okay the
Boot loader is okay but when I download superSU it's says that "can't
Find Su binary it's a problem" or something like that and then it says
"if you updated ur phone to 4.3 version you need to manually re-root
The device...... " so I tried to re-root the device but it doesn't work
Keep in mind that everything like recovery and boot loader is working
Like charm. When I download from Google store the" Root checker" it
Says that u don't have root access

Ok... So I rooted my nexus 5, and unlocked the bootloader. When I tried to install the 5.1.1 ota update, my phone went into recovery and then showed a dead Android robot and gave me ''Error!". I have heard a lot that if u modify any system file on lollipop, ota updates will fail. So then I unrooted, and then relocked the bootloader. When I tried to install the update, the same thing happened. My nexus booted into recovery and gave me Error!. I am tired of using nexus root toolkit to update to the latest software and want to use ota updates. I am selling my phone to a unexperienced person pretty soon and want it to function properly aka be able to use OTA's. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist
I saw you already posted into a right section so i'm gonna close this thread.
Good luck!
I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 G920A and I Tried to downgrade to 5.1.1 firmware. After flashing with odin it gets stuck at the Samsung boot screen. It will not enter recovery. I can only enter odin mode. I can only assume that marshmallow has locked in the bootloader so it cannot be downgraded. I recently found out you can unlock it but I do not have a way to as long as I cannot boot the phone. The only thing I can think of is to get a flashable, threw odin for the marshmallow firmware but I cannot find it online anywhere. If there is anyone who knows how to make one or has one already that can be uploaded, I would love to fix my softbricked phone.
