I got the same thing. I'm reverting to the stock recovery and rom to see if that fixes anything. rip - my root
Lol, I'm gonna let you guys trial and error the issue out. Too scared to do something I'm not sure of.
Please tell me how it goes though guys, hoping for the best!

And that seems to do the trick. I'm on Marshmallow!
So here's what I did. (MetroPCS Variant Only) (Remember to backup stuff you want to keep (Duh))
Step 1: If you're using a custom recovery, switch back to the stock recovery found bundled here: https://mega.nz/#!sp0wCThZ!MQVTq6y_8DJShrvNrY4L-JtJBDHOQhnaLRq8UiqLruQ
Step 2: Use this to get to the stock Rom (Scroll down): https://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-desire-626s-metro-pcs/news/
Step 3: Do all the updates from the settings menu
Step 4: Profit

Sure.
(Go to the folder where adb and fastboot are located) (Have the phone in download mode)
Step 1: Move the stock recovery to that folder and name it "srecovery"
Step 2: Hold SHIFT and right click anywhere in the folder and click "Open command window here"
Step 3: When the command window opens up, type in "fastboot flash recovery srecovery.img" and press enter

For some reason it's not seeing my device now
Weird thing going on with my phone, after putting everything to stock, now it will not find system updates. It keeps saying "There are no updates available for your phone."
Very weird. I've restarted the device but same thing happens. I'm not quite sure what to do except keep trying to check for updates.

Let me ask you, did you have to install those 2 small updates first before the actual Marshmallow update? Or did it just give you the Marshmallow update immediately?

Do you know if I absolutely need them in order to flash Marshmallow? I copied over the OTA zip that I did download before going back to stock. So, if I don't need them then couldn't I just flash it from default recovery?

You do need to download the 2 updates for the 6.0.1 update to show up. Otherwise nothing will happen.

Hello everyone,
First I want to say thank you all for the work you have done. Recently I started messing around with my HTC ONE from Sprint.
Well I think I screwed everything up. First, I want you all to know I spent the last 8 hours searching the internet and trying different things and well, I am about to throw in the towel. I am hoping someone may be able to help.
I somehow deleted everything on my device, including the rom. I cannot get past the HTC screen now nor can I get any roms back on. I have tried twrp but it will not let me mount the /data nor will sideload work, it just fails. Adb doesn't seem to work at all, never sees my device yet fastboot sees it every time. I have tried using fastboot to upload a rom yet I get strange errors like some sort of android text not being in the rom. I tried the stock RUU but it doesn't seem to want to take.
So with all that said, can someone please help me. I have the HTC drivers installed and it shows "MyHTC" under my devices in the control panel. I also have the SDK tools installed. When in twrp and under the "mount" option, it says storage has 0mb. I can't think of anything else to do but rip my hair out. I have honestly been working on this for hours straight.
EDIT: I also have my phone unlocked and it was rooted before all this mess. I still have s-on and havent figured out to turn it off now that it is all messed up.
Please help!
Thank you!
I would highly suggest pm-ing big daddy619. If he is willing, he can get you up and running. Also to start make sure your sdk tools are updated to work with 4.3 it's rev 18 or 19. Plus big daddy has a very intuitive guide at top of q&a section. Good luck!!
Did you re-lock your bootloader when you ran the RUU?

Once you get the ruu done do this to install the drivers properly(they may install in OS,bootloader,recovery)
ADB = OS & recovery
Fastboot = bootloader
Unplug your phone
Uninstall everything HTC
Reboot your PC
Use these drivers http://d-h.st/FXC
Install above drivers
Plug phone in and let the drivers install (in OS,Recovery,Bootloader) if your PC and phone still don't talk to each other in all 3 modes do this
On your PC go to device manager and find your phone(usually M7WLS), right click and select properties
Select the driver tab
Select update driver
Select browse my comp
Let me pick
Look for ADB USB device or similar should be one of the first couple choices
Select MyHTC install and you should be good

Make sure you try different usb ports, it's as simple as that.
After a botched OTA update to Kitkat upon its release there was an error in the middle of the update which screwed the phone up drastically, so I found the "test version" of KitKat (N900AUCUCMLG)? and cant get to the official version N900AUCUCNC2.. I tried the update by downloading the zip and installing through safe mode but I get some kind of errors which ends up in the phone doing a clean install of the MLG firmware. any thoughts??
same here, but...
I can root and clean out the bloat ware, just can't install custom roms or make a nandroid back up, but really nuking the bloatware is a blessing in itself.

where I get stuck is at step 4 it reads like ODIN should complete the install but never does, did not pay attention to the 95% because I never got to the Heimdal step.
Step 4:
4) Now is the time to use Heimdall.
Reboot into Download Mode once Odin finishes. (ODIN never finishes for me, it always fails at the ODIN install)
Install the vcredist packages downloaded from step 1.
unzip the heimdall .zip file to c:/
go to c:/Heimdall Suite/Drivers and click on zadig.exe
click the middle menu button to select "Show All Devices"

Jerry I wish I could, however this stock software is just not quite right, good enough to root, but not much else. Trust me, I am a happy camper to get rid of the bloat, but at the same time would like to test drive these custom roms. Going to give the MJ5 fix one more try and maybe the 3rd time is the charm.
Thanks again, would have probably blushed over Heimdall 95% comment if successful the first time.......so now ready for it.

We are good to go now. Manually flashed and it worked. Appears the issue is with Windows Technical Preview. Thanks!
You can flash/root with the Wug toolkit too.

Hi
I have ATT galaxy note 3 first time I installed a rom I did it over the stock rom slot, no biggie, to make a long story short last rom I had was alliance last version, didn’t work for me, so I decided to install (FireNoteDeodexV20XGrandFinale)
So I booted into Safestrap 3.75(TWRP v2.7.1.0) by simply restarting my device and got that recovery or continue buttons.
So I did a factory wipe but I also did an advance wipe and checked (system).
After that I went to install and selected the above ROM zip and installed it and after I hit continue at the safestrap screen where it also says disabled it always has. It stays blank.
So I booted up to SS again and now whenever I select factory wipe or system wipe or try to mount I get the same message E:Unable to mount ‘/system’ and E:Unable to mount ‘/systemorig’
And now im stuck with no phone and cant install any ROM
Theres a lot of threads about this but please oh please masters bare with me I just need step by step, what should I do and what files do I need to download.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Are you on Jellybean or Kitkat..this should be in Q&A section. But we will try to get you going

If you have a computer. And a sdcard slot on it download and install a kitkat rom of your choice from the att note 3 rom section. Because you most likely are on the newest bootloader you can't flash jb roms. You have to stick to kitkat roms.

You should look in the general section for att note 3 and find the Odin files for kitkat and Odin restore your phone. Then start over rooting and installing a custom rom. Probably your best bet.

I have been rooted for a few months now and need to get a replacement phone from vzw. I have been searching for the better part of 2 days on how to completly unroot my nexus 6. i used the method used in "[HOW-TO] The Nexus 6 All-In-One Beginner's Guide By xBeerdroiDx" to root it. Which installed TWRP, with any other phone ive rooted i could just go to SuperSU and click full unroot and it would do it. That is not the case now. Can i get a step by step directions from someone on how to unroot my phone please.
Thanks in advance.

sure.. get the factory image from the google site, download it to your computer, unzip it, then flash each part of it individually via fastboot while youre in your bootloader. thats the only real way to "unroot" a device.every othet way removes root but keeps the changed files. so they think that youre still rooted.

ive never wiped before flashing a factory image(i assumed it does it automatically before flashing each partition), but that can be a good idea as well :good:

-w only wipes the data partition as far as i know.
i havent dissected the files for this phone, but all past device img's i have, has a wiping command of some sort in there somewhere.
its usually something like "erase userdata" or similar.
the files are .tar and .tgz my computer wont recognize them am i doing something wrong?

you need software to open the archives. i think win rar may do it, but im not positive.

sure.. get the factory image from the google site, download it to your computer, unzip it, then flash each part of it individually via fastboot while youre in your bootloader. thats the only real way to "unroot" a device.every othet way removes root but keeps the changed files. so they think that youre still rooted.

you need fastboot(and adb for other things). you can get that from google or you can search google for a smaller download. its in the sdk( i believe), but that download is huge. i installed a fastboot for dummies version a few years back, with adb as well, and ot turned out to be only 35mb.
