from Android Revolution HD blog
unlocking your bootloader wiped /data folder where some htc app like flashlight, calculator and more where in. It makes your device not capable to receive any OTA updates because every OTA update checks MD5 checksum of every file that originally came with your device. So even if you didn't flash any custom ROM and your /system partition is unmodified, you won't be able to install OTA update.

It doesn't mean all files on your phone are stock when checked by ota checksum. Go back to 100% stock and it will work.

If i need to go back to 100% stock can I do it without loosing my files / apps / configs? I have a ton of games with savegames etc and apps.

Hi guys,
I have jut received notification of an available update to my phone, and I have taken a nandroid backup and attempted to update. This failed and left me in recovery (CWM). I then tried manually updating using the .zip file from the download folder, but this left me stuck too.
How can I apply this update?
Thanks
Did you remove any of the stock apks? What customizations have you done? Typically the ROM needs to be completely stock before applying an OTA update.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I'm pretty sure my rom is stock. Apart from rooting and apply changes to the framework.

You'll need to be unrooted, stock, and with stock recovery for the OTA to take effect.
If you need stock ROMS and recovery, they are available in the development forums.

Did you root regular HTC One or the China edition HTC One (802w)? I am in the same situation as you if you are using the 802w. Have you tried resetting to factory default, update it, THEN do the unlock/root?
You should follow Mikes thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265618 it explains how to unroot etc. and after that you should be able to update your rom again.
when i start update to 4.2.2 it's reboot and after few minut appear a
red exclamation mark and after reboot i've the old 4.2.1 ....i've try to factory reset but is the same.....what's the problem....???
my htc one is official not rooted....
Same problem here. Posted details in a new thread.

Something is not stock on your phone... most problably boot...
Mine is a 1.31.651.2 not sure if this is the same as 4.2.2 update but as for boot image it has not been changed, everything is stock.

Possible Solution
I saw this problem b4, and there is possible solution.
Change the name "download" folder to "Download" in root directory, then FOTA again.
Try this out !!

I guess, I thought it was odd too.
This is the name of the file

By the way, so far this has not fixed my network issues. But I'll try one more full factory wipe and profile wipe in a 4G area on the way home tonight.
The only thing not factory on my phone right now is S-OFF.

No, you need stock recovery to flash them, not receive them.
What was the final size of the file?
Do we just rename the zip to "System Update" to flash?

You can only run it if you have the stock recovery installed and are running the straight stock ROM from the RUU. If you are running the stock rooted or BadBoyz ROM, you cannot install it.

Kinda hard to tell what changed because it looks like they always patch every single file. Looks like there is a new kernel and firmware.
You can't flash the zip file. You can only update it if you are on the stock ODEX ROM with stock recovery.

If you are truly stock, just download it again. Keep in mind that it will update your hboot so I hope you are s-off.
I doubt the original file name is just "update.zip" and I dont even think it saves to root dir. The OTA update saved to downloads if I recall.
Early this AM I got an OTA update to 5.0.2 on my M8 HK which also moved the WiFi calling icon over to the right of the notification bar and did away with the persistent notification. The version is 4.25.654.14 and I think there is a new radio (1.09.20.0209). haven't noticed any other changes yet.
HTC has the RUU posted already here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-one-m8-harman-kardon-edition-sprint/news/

Looks like the stock browser icon has changed. I am not sure if that means the app got an update or the stock overlay did. The version I have installed is 7.1.2514183160. I am not sure what's new if the app itself is, though.
There is also a flashlight app that I don't recall seeing before. Hopefully that means they are going to implement the pull down shortcut for it.

I have S-OFF, stock ROM, booted into FASTBOOT, copied the stock recovery.img from 4.20.651.10_full_firmware.zip using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img". Booted into the OS, let the OTA install, phone rebooted and is now stuck at the white "htc one powered by android" screen after it shows the yellow Sprint Spark screen and plays the boot up sound/tune.
I have since flashed the full firmware using the SD card method (4.25.651.14_Full_firmware.zip) and the old firmware (4.20.651.10_full_firmware.zip) and still stuck at that screen. I now have it back with the updated firmware via SD card flash (4.25.651.14_Full_firmware.zip).
Did I do something wrong? How can I fix this without having to wipe the phone?

I was able to flash TWRP recovery with fastboot then I was able to do a nandroid backup and copy the backup from the phone to my computer. I also backed up the internal SD card while in the TWRP recovery.
Ran the latest RUU, which wiped the phone, but then after it booted and ran the initial setup, I put the TWRP back on and then restored the data partition of the nandroid backup, rebooted, and the phone had all of the apps, content, settings, text messages, etc, (as if I didn't loose anything), along with the latest update from the RUU!

Nope. It's probably coming in the 5.1 matience release.
Looks like HTC wants to degrade M8 to sell more M9s. They didn't change much M9 and all HTC lovers don't want to change the device. Hence, HTC making the M8 worse. Never expected such a cheap behaviour from HTC. With the new update batty life sucks, its worse than which I had in HTC One X. HTC how can you cheat your customers for your selfishness!!! checked everything, its Android engine and kernel eatng up all the battery (non rooted factory firmware). Guys please dont update your phone!

Maybe you are right. But, so long the phone has been stable and the day phone receives the OTA makes it like a charge addicted and battery drains 50% faster than before. Honestly with normal whatsapp, message, phone call and few minutes of facebook access lasts for roughly 5.5 to 6 hours. Let me see formatting the phone.
I noticed that every time I plug my phone into a charger of any sort (wall, car, solar, PC) WiFi turns on.
I am on stock ROM and Kernel rooted, 2.8.6 twrp installed, S-on. 5.0.2 RUU.
Can anyone else rebut or confirm this?

How should I proceed for this? I already converted the recovery back to stock but still no success on updating the file from sideload either. Any help would be appreciated!
