[Q] [Help] Boot Loop using GPE 4.4.4 - Sprint HTC One (M8)

Hello all, looking for a little guidance.
My symptoms: My phone (non hk, m8) boots and then reboots after about 3-4 seconds. I can't get through the initial set up at all.
I unlocked using the htc dev option, I don't have s-off, I flashed twrp 2.7.1.0,
I flashed the GPE 4.4.4 from within twrp and as per the instructions, followed that up by flashing the boot.img using fastboot. EDIT*** I also wiped cache, dalvik, and data prior to initial boot.
Everything went smoothly and I started the initial boot, it gets past google logo and the boot animation and it even starts the initial set up, after about 3 seconds it reboots.
I came from latest everything totally stock. (the .10 radio, and 4.4.3 stock rom) I accepted all the OTAs on stock then started the switch to GPE.
Anyone else experience this or know what I should look into to resolve this?
- Thanks in advance.

Update: I am fairly certain this has to do with SuperSU - I will attempt re-installing and ensuring SuperSu is flashed and ready to go before booting.
Update: Final edit - RESOLVED
For anyone else dealing with this, it is a matter of ensuring that SuperSu is flashed prior to booting. Once you've installed the rom, flash latest supersu and then boot as normal.

Same Problem
It'sbeen awhile since I've rooted. I am however having this same issue. How do I go about getting only a flashable SuperSU file? I looked it up and the only thing im getting is a flashable recovery. Any help would be greatly appreciated seeing how my phone is useless atm. Thanks

I had the same exact problem! I thought I was just doing something completely wrong lol

S-Off
Anyone had any luck obtaining S-Off with this rom? I tried using firewater but every time I get the "whelp, you can't use firewater" message. Any pointers on what I could be doing wrong

You're not doing anything wrong... Firewater only works on some M8s. You should definitely not be trying it in the GPE rom. Stock is what you want.

If you continue to get that message on a stock ROM you'll need to use SunShine S-off instead (I have a feeling that going back stock won't help the issue but it's recommended to be as close to stock as possible).

In the end it probably won't but it's recommended to be as close to stock as possible, meaning you should be on a Sense ROM.

Yeah he stated that he was trying to use firewater on a GPE rom... My suggestion was to flash to a stock rom, not go back to stock entirely.

Why would it be a deal breaker? Having S-On only means that you have to flash the boot.img manually which takes approx 5 seconds to do. You can still root and flash custom roms etc...

I guess some people just don't like the super hard work of doing things manually. /sarcasm
Well, I had a One X for a while and flashing the boot everytime a new rom version was released or changing roms got a bit annoying after a while. I also like being able to flash a rom without being connecting to a PC to fastboot.

Yeah "a bit annoying", that's as far as it goes. As for being a deal breaker, I don't think so.
Some roms don't require you to flash the boot.img manually, such as ARHD
Wasn't there an app that would allow you to flash the boot.img from the phone itself? I think I remember seeing it mentioned on the AT&T HOX boards, but I never used it.
They should stickie the soff issue so users don't need to ask.
Big letters soff not yet
Nothing against the op. Just saying for info purposes

Respect his opinion, you have your own view on it and obviously he has another
S-ON and locked bootloader is also what kept me away from this phone, starting on Samsung now and just going to port sense over.
This device can flash boot.img's, kernels, whatever from recovery. Unlike the one x with it's tegra processor. s-off doesn't really give you any benefits EXCEPT being able to downgrade firmware if you choose to do so.

^^ If you're htcdev unlocked how can you flash baseband, newer hboot version etc.?
Since this is Qualcom, will the ATT Qualcom One X S-off method be a possibility? Certainly glad its not a tegra..

You've used it? If so that's a very relieving change... coming from a HOX. I'd live with it anyway, but flashing kernels in recovery will save alot of headaches

No sorry. I haven't used it yet, few more weeks to wait for mine. But, with a Qualcomm processor you can flash kernels from recovery just fine. Look at ROMs like renovate for example, everything is from recovery now. I just don't see s off being a have to have thing like it was a couple years back with devices like the dhd. Tho s off could be useful to downgrade software ( flash an old ruu) or to change the unlocked flag back to locked for warranty purposes. Maybe I'll get lucky and get a s off one ** fingers crossed**
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda premium
Anybody who wants to flash custom kernels, should know the basic workings of ADB and fastboot. Some devs modify the ramdisk with their kernel, which can cause issues, if you decide to then flash another dev's kernel. A simple fastboot flash boot boot.img, will restore the stock ramdisk and save you a lot of grief.

try the restore to stock for canadian users in my signature. Post back if any issues. Are you planning to return for warranty or just to get signal
Things dont happen on their own. So either you did something or the phone is toast.

Well yeah just to get signal back. After I installed viper rom is when i started to get this probelm. Ive had the viper rom for awhile and if my phone died or i had to restart it would loose signal so basically i would have to restart the phone again to get it back but now for like the past 5 days it seems to have lost it for good

lol well a little to late now i didecided to go back to stock and i was following this one video on youtube how to do it so the phone says it is relocked now but when i went to flash the ruu it kept on saying signature fail. and all i can do now is boot the phone into the bootloader. Any suggestions in how i could fix this??
You dug a deeper hole for yourself. Nice.
Well now you need to unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery, and adb push or adb sideload a rom to get booting.
YouTube is good for videos only.

at OP, please disregard 99MB """RUU"""" (not sure how many quotes i can put)
go with @SaHiLzZ
What are you talking about? The first post ask for an RUU. If it's not what's wanted then so be it. But when did compiling a kernel ever occur in this equation? Do you know how to use HTC dev to find ruu's? It's all in the same spot. Been that way since the website opened. If an ruu exist it will appear in all after search is done.
If a full one isn't there then it isn't there. But it's a good spot to look.

No its NOT a good place to find RUUs, and should not be the first place to look.
OP, best to look at WRITTEN guides (couple linked in my Sig) to get your phone booting.

HTC One M7 unable to do OTA

So my situation is that I have previously bricked my phone, sent it to HTC for flashing and now after that, I am unable to install the OTA update for Sense 6. The download is fine, verification is fine, only at the installation part where the blue bar will go up to about 30+% then it will give me a red exclaimation mark error where it will then restart and the version will be as of before.
Things I've tried: clearing Updater cache and resetting phone both didn't work. I saw something about resetting the cache in the recovery or something but I realised that I have no recovery in my bootloader. Is that normal or is that something HTC forgot to add in after they reflash the rom for me?
Thanks for any help given.

Do you have access to someone elses device, the calc and flashlght were initially in the data partition, so you can copy from them. There are blown away when you unlock the boot loader.

[Req] Stock recovery for ATT 4.4.2 needed.

I need stock recovery for ATT 4.4.2, 165.44.10 in flashable zip format.
I got my soak test for 4.4.4, but I am on vacation so I don't have a PC to revert back to stock recovery.
Can anyone help me out?

I seriously doubt you'll find that. Instead, (assuming you are rooted), download your choice of "Rashr", or "Flashify" from the market, and use it to flash the stock recovery.img file (attached). I had to zip it because the forum has a 10MB size limit. Just unzip it first and flash with Rashr/Flashify.
Also keep in mind that if you have made any changes to /system (including installing Xposed), the OTA will likely fail to install.
Personally, I wouldn't even consider trying to flash an OTA after having rooted and flashed custom recovery without a PC around. If anything goes wrong you're gonna be up a creek (if you get my drift) with no way to recover.
Good Luck
I signed up and got the email about the soak test, just wondering if they send another email with the update or if it will be an Ota. I just signed up a few days ago so who knows if I will even get one but I'd like to know what to look for thanks.

The roll-out hasn't started yet. The current *best guess* given by 'those in the know' is that it will possibly start tomorrow night. If you signed up for the soak test, you will likely receive it once the test starts.

QQ Sam, will that recovery also work for the T-Mobile GSM Version?
Also after flashing the recovery you need to flash twrp again i`m assuming?

Here is the recovery for the T-Mobile variant. It may be the same - I haven't checked the MD5s.
I'm kinda confused as to why you need it though. The XT1053 has been on 4.4.3 for some time. Unless you are still on 4.4.2, and you want to update to 4.4.3....
The 4.4.4 rollout (or even the soak test) haven't started yet.
Regardless, this is what you need for when it does start. Keep in mind (as your probably already know) that if you have modified /system, the update might fail to install. Remember to uninstall Xposed if you are using that before you update as well.
And finally, yes, after you have successfully taken an OTA, you can simply flash TWRP back again.
So... Do I have the right kernel for Att?

Oh wow! That's interesting....
Every Moto X Kernel I've seen (that was signed w/release keys) thus-far has the "hudsoncm" build. Now I'm really curious what is different about this one...
Or are you unlocked and you flashed a custom kernel?? I bet that's it - are you using "faux" kernel or something??

Yes. The other one pictured by the other member posted does not appear to be stock. My guess is that they flashed a custom kernel at some point.
Yours appears to be the stock.
EDIT: upon further research, both appear to be stock Kernels. I'm wondering if the kernel in the SBF differs from the one in the OTA. That's all I can figure. You would *think* that every phone on the same build, whether updated via OTA or SBF/FXZ would have the same kernel build. Apparently not the case....

Is recovery carrier dependent?

Need some help regarding RUU and OTA update

Okay so been some time since I've been on here and since I have got a oneplus one and I am selling my M7.
I was rooted and running tickdroid 8.0 I think it was, 4.2.2 as I didn't feel the hassle to update it etc.
Now I managed to get back to stock by flashing the stock RUU and my software currently stands at 4.1.2
I searched for an update but it says it's up to date? The phone has stock recovery etc I just want to update it to the latest firmware before I sell it. So any help to get it up to kitkat would be appreciated
Bootloader is relocked
Software 4.1.2
S-Off

Now it has been some time since I've done this whole rooting thing etc but I managed to gain s-off last night and change to supercid so I could flash the stock
Also I can't seem to get any service? I've tried several sims
Any help

Ok so do you want 100% Stock or just the stock software
I have a O2 4.4.3 stock nandroid ? But it's no good to you if you want to set your bootloader back to locked. That must be done on hboot 1.44

No unfortunately not. Setting 100% Stock is not so simple. The firmware to match the rom is on hboot 1.57. You need to lock the bootloader on hboot 1.44 and go back to s-on before you update to hboot 1.55, after you lock the bootloader you'll have no way to install the Rom.
You can use my reset zip method though. I don't have the time to knock up a guide for you right now because I'm in work. If you can wait I can get it up for you later on this evening. Or just go and read the nkk71 nandroid guide. It's a liitle more involved than the reset zip method but does the same job :good:

you might want to check the MD5 value of your nanadroid backup zip file. Use WinMD5 program (google it)
The MD5 should be ea7969028463b7c14317cc6ea312e76e, if not then its a bad download.

Sorry to keep you waiting but Yeah what @alray said. Looks like the Nandroid didn't download correctly.

Hey @alray, Tonight I was gonna farm the OTA for the firmware you need in the other thread. I was planning a full wipe for ARHD 84 anyway. But I see @nkk71 is already sorting it. I did find a link for the .9 but it was dead
I don't know if it makes any difference but I did learn that the .8 is for Unbranded Vodaphone and the .9 is for Branded Vodaphone.
