Hi all,
I've created a simple guide to restore your HTC One M8 back to stock firmware while still being on S-ON.
This guide will provide you with all the files required to restore your EUROPEAN device back to stock.
If you have an device from another region, you'll need to find the RUU & recovery image yourself. (see below)
Prerequisites:
- HTC Drivers (just install HTC Sync and the included drivers, then remove HTC Sync)
- Fastboot package
- Stock recovery.img (you'll need the recovery.img with the same fw version as the RUU you're going to flash) (Link to 4.16.401.10 recovery.img for European non-carier devices)
- The RUU for your region/carrier. (Link to 4.16.401.10 for European non-carier devices)
If you have an USA /USA carrier device, go here for the RUU files
If you have an device from another region than Europe or USA, good luck finding the correct RUU
Look here to find recovery.img files for all regions (thanks to @exocetdj)
Because this guide is intended for S-ON, only the RUU for your region/carrier will work.
If you don't have an RUU or cannot find one for your region/carrier, S-OFF your device and follow this guide to restore your HTC One M8 back to stock. (thanks to @EddyOS)
After you've gone trough all steps;
- The red text during boot will be gone
- You'll have the stock firmware, system, recovery and boot.img
- Your bootloader will say "Relocked"
- Your bootloader will say "Software status: Official"
Let's start:
Step 1:
Start the RUU exe by double clicking on it, it will take a few seconds before it starts. After it has started, do not continue but go to your temp folder (type %TEMP% in your address bar)
Find the folder with the temporary files from the RUU (mine was called: {C48DBAA3-1CC0-4DF6-B069-B9CCB27F93C9})
Inside this folder there should be a few files and another folder with a long code as name (mine was called: {50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B})
Inside this folder, scroll down until you find rom.zip, open this file
Extract boot_signed.img and place it in a folder with the downloaded stock recovery and the fastboot.exe file
Now close the RUU installation wizard
Step 2:
Turn off your device
Hold VOL-Down + Power, after a few seconds you'll be in the bootloader. Now release the buttons
Navigate with the volume buttons to fastboot and confirm with the power button.
Step 3:
You should now have a folder with the following files:
- fastboot.exe
- AdbWinApi.dll
- AdbWinUsbApi.dll
- boot.img (extracted from the rom.zip)
- recovery.img (see prerequisites)
Inside the folder while holding shift, click right mouse and choose Open command window here
Before starting, it's recommended to rename the recovery file to recovery.img and the kernel to boot.img
Type the following commands in order (make sure to check the output and see if every command is successful before executing the next command)
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot oem lock
This will push the stock kernel & recovery and relock your device.
Step 4:
Open the RUU installation wizard again and follow the instructions.
It will start flashing the RUU on your device.
After 8-12 minutes, the installation will be complete and your device will boot into system.
Step 5: (optional)
Power off your device
Hold VOL-Down + Power, after a few seconds you'll be in the bootloader. Now release the buttons
Verify that your bootloader says "Relocked" & "Software status: Official"
Congratulations, your device is back to stock again. After it's finished booting and optimizing 261(!) pre installed apps, you'll be greeted by the setup wizard on your phone.
If you have any questions, let me know.
Common problems:
Fastboot cannot find my device?
- try reinstalling the HTC drivers included with HTC Sync, and make sure to remove HTC Sync afterwards but leaving the drivers installed
I've got error 155 when trying to flash the RUU
- make sure your bootloader is locked. This tool only works when you have stock kernel, recovery and your bootloader is locked or relocked.

This is my phone , should i do any thing more or just the steps u mentioned???
I was told that i must upgrade my firmware, must i ??
Thanks
This is a great guide for those that just want to return to stock for their own purposes. However, this will not be enough for sending the phone into warranty, for that you'll need to take a few more steps with S-Off to get that RELOCKED flag to say LOCKED.

From my experience with HTC warranty repairs, they don't really care about the bootloader being 'relocked', S-Off is a more common cause for them to not repair the device.
But, above differs per repair center / per country

You are S-ON so you need to relock the bootloader and run the ruu.
If you want to give all info to work with you need to post the outcome of :
Fastboot getvar all
Delete the serial and imei and post the list here.
Or check the firmware & nand backup thread here in the general section. Restore the stock rom and recovery and perform ota updates which also will upgrade the firmware

Has nothing to do with where he bought it from, it is depending on the phones hardware & software, for all we know its imported.
The specs are important not where he got it from. And you can't tie it down on how repair centers handle the phones....that's a matter of good luck !

I bought it second-hand from Qatar if you mean country.
Hi. I tried to use this guide but it I couldn't follow it through. I have relocked, tempered, S-ON, CID : TMOB102 phone. It is stuck in the HTC logo after a full wipe from twrp. I don't have OS, and the main version is empty. So far I have tried all the European RUU which gave CID error and 2 T-Mobile RUU's with MID error both. Can anyone give me a suggestion?

Please check if your device is unlocked. You can't flash boot.img's while on a locked bootloader.

You are using the wrong command ! It's :
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
NOT
Fastboot boot boot.img ! That's why you got stuck. And indeed make sure the bootloader is UNLOCKED before you flash !
While i don't even know flashing the boot.img and recovery seperatly first is actually needed because all that's needed is to relock the bootloader and run the ruu.exe or the temp rom.zip via sd card.
afaik the ruu method takes care of the boot.img and recovery on its own.
Got a problem with 3rd command (locking oem) in step 3. It goes like this:

Now my phone is stuck on my ROM's boot logo and now I can't access bootloader.
EDIT:
I've managed to access bootloader by holding power + volup and then holding vol down. After that installing via RUU went smooth.
Hi, I followed your instructions, but before I could start with 4th device booted up and i accidentaly accepted upgrade. It rebooted and upgraded the device, and then stuck on boot screen. Now I try to update it through RUU but it says image version 4.16.401.13, and I can't find RUU for that version. Any ideas? Can I somehow reinstall twrp and restore nandroid backup?
P.S. in bootloader it still says software status: modified :/
P.P.S. I still managed to make RUU go through all the steps, from a billionth time. It would usually stuck on steps 0, step 1, or step 3. Now it seems like it's booting fine... Time to shower away all the cold sweat from my body.
Hi Guys,
I have windows 8.1 and can't open rom.zip file. I have an error : The compressed Folder is invalid. Installed winzip, 7-zip - can't go ahead.
If you are having trouble sending the ruu and you are stuck at sending 0/7 or 1/8 and only htc logo. then just delete htc sync manager from your pc!!!
Hello,
The first day I got my moto x style (XT1572) I started to root, everything was more or less well until I tried to install the SU when I finished installing the binary from the TWRP custom recovery-3.0.2-0- clark you say yes to install the root since the phone would not start and remains in boot loop.
After much look I followed some tutorial XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/help/brick-downgrade-6-0-to-5-1-heeeeelp-t3253716) to return to flash the phone with the rom that theory came from factory cbox1s_XT1572_CLARK_RETEU_6.0_MPHS24.49-18-3_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml after following all the steps mobile and well lit and seems it was all sorted.
Well, I went back to the load to make root and remove the message that the bootloader was unlocked this time all fu well, except now every time I reboot I enter into fastboot mode and have to select START to boot normal to me.
Any ideas or suggestions to fix it?
regards,
PD: Sorry for my google translate english i'am spanish a my english level is very bad :crying:
SOLVED, the problem was the BP Tools in the fastboot, i had "Fastboot Reason: UTAG "bootmode" configured as fastboot" i changed to "Normal Powerup" and all perfect
same problem with Motorola z xt1650-03 , unlocked bootloader , every time I start up remain stuck in fastboot mode , after ,push the power button for start , and start normal.

What? how do you do it? can you tell me how to do it more specific? I'm new so I don't understand what you mean and how you do it :/
thank you.
Moto devices have a flashing mode called "fb_mode" that when enabled causes the bootloader to start on each boot, it is used for flashing stock firmware images since in some cases the device needs to reboot after flashing a certain partition or image and it needs a way to return to the fastboot mode. Remember when flashing a stock image you may have entered "fastboot oem fb_mode_set"? If not then a toolkit or other flashing tool may have done it but not cleared it correctly. To clear it manually you need to literally clear it with a fastboot command... With the phone in the bootloader, enter this command from your computer"
fasboot oem fb_mode_clear
And reboot, it should no longer go to the bootloader unless you are holding VOL DN and the operating system should start normally.

There is no problem... The Moto X does not have A/B software slots, the messages above are merely informational and completely normal.
With mfastboot there is no messages like this. Only "OKAY" one
However it didn't help with my Moto G (falcon).
What helped was checking the kernel. My "smartness" told me to flash Nouagt when I had Pie rom...

Which blankflash files are you using that are causing this error, the September 2017 or June 2017 ones?
You may wish to try the December 2017 GPT and bootloader files : https://drive.google.com/open?id=1IfAX7v94ooB5wS7KTJGNYfQ2kXkHxP80
If the December 2017 GPT/bootloader files work, then you will want to re-flash the NPJS25.93-14-13 stock ROM (mainly for Brazil, India, EU and UK users, may flash onto other region's devices) to fully repair: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138

Can I ask what steps you've tried when unlocking the bootloader please? Have you followed this guide, https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67031801&postcount=2 and if so, what errors are you getting? If you could, please post a screenshot of the error or the text of the error.
Is your device bought from a carrier (and thus carrier locked) or an Amazon Prime device or was it from Amazon/a retailer?
Could we see your getvar info please?
1)Boot your device to the bootloader. Connect via USB to your computer.
2)In the ADB terminal, type 'fastboot getvar all' without quotes. Press Enter.
3)Paste the output into a post here please. You may wish to remove IMEI numbers.

Okay, was it an Amazon Prime device (with the adverts on the lock screen) or just a retail device sold by Amazon?
As far as I know, the Amazon Prime version cannot have its bootloader unlocked, and Motorola won't issue an unlock key for such devices. You'll know if it's an Amazon Prime device from adverts on the lockscreen and if you go to Settings>About Phone, under software channel it'll say AMZ. On retail devices it'll be retin (retail India) or reteu (retail Europe) etc.

Can you try with the minimal ADB tools as well? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790 and with the minimal ADB tools, use 'fastboot oem get_unlock_data' without quotes.
Have you had your motherboard changed? If not, and you cannot get the unlock data, then you may have to post to the official Lenovo/Motorola forums: https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/forums/v3_1/forumtopicpage/board-id/230/thread-id/2654/page/1
As requested in the first post of that page, please provide the getvar info and the result of the get_unlock_data (whatever it is) in your post, else the admin may not forward your request to the internal team.

Hmm, you have a CID of 0x0000 which should be unlockable. I wonder what's happened to your ro.carrier though, that should read retin rather than unknown.
I'd post on the Lenovo/Motorola forum I linked above with the information requested in the opening post of that thread. By the way, you can copy by right clicking in the menubar of the command line window then going to Edit>Copy. Saves you having to take a screenshot and they'll want a text entry.

Did you post on the Lenovo/Motorola official forum thread as directed? They are the only ones likely to help you at this stage.
I see one new report from an athene device in the last few days, but that device is from Argentina. As an aside, that report has no IMEI, which may slow down the help to get their code.
Please post in the Bootloader Unlock thread on the Motorola/Lenevo forum, with the getvar info (with IMEI) and the result of the get_unlock_data as directed. They then should forward the message to their internal teams and look for an email response in 48-72 hours (or 2-3 working days).

Hmm, what have you tried so far? Can you describe what happened before experiencing this error?
Looking through your image, though it's quite low resolution, I see no entries in your firmware version or kernel or baseband, which suggests you used the blankflash at some point?

I had Resurrection Remix Oreo on the device. I was just using the phone casually with vanced youtube running on the background and facebook messenger too. Suddenly it froze so i tried to restart it but no response and then after some time the screen went blank. When plugged in to charge, the led glowed and screen was plain blank without the screen lighting up. So I googled and found the following thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/help/solved-unbrick-hard-bricked-dead-t3585016
Followed the procedure then the screen was up again. The screen i got after doing this is below. Sorry for the low resolution hope you can understand it.

IMEI is gone. It shows all 0s in the imei field. Tried flashing stock recovery, custom recovery, twrp no luck. The device is recognized as "fastboot athene_16mp S" when connected to pc.
Hope you can help.

That isn't your actual fastboot mode. fastboot getvar will not show proper details. I too had tried and got imei as multiple 0 with "fastboot getvar", also had seen a lot of other things missing too.
Download and flash the latest stock nougat from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/stock-rom-npjs25-93-14-4-march-1-t3608138
Before flashing stock rom, you will need to flash latest "bootloader" and "gpt". First flash bootloader and gpt and then reboot to bootloader (fastboot reboot bootloader).
Now you will have your original bootloader back. Now you can flash stock nougat rom and everything will be back to normal.
I hope you have not upgraded to soak test oreo by "locked bootloader" method because if you did then you will have to wait till fastboot rom for oreo comes out or ask someone who is on soak test oreo to provide their bootloader and gpt partitions (if they upgrades by locked bootloader method), as you wouldn't be able to flash nougat bootloader and gpt partitions.
i have a similar problem on my xt1643 as it is only booting to the locked bootloader, and tried all the gpt.bin till april 2018 while all the others gave the downgrade error, april 2018 gave the following error.

It seems I can flash recovery with fastboot, but the phone never boots into recovery (stuck on ZTE logo B2017G ).
I've tried to put my device in EDL mode with DeepFlash cable but without success.

Axon 7 mini 7.1.1 build B2017gV1.2.0B14
Still waiting too.
Get a stock recovery (not TWRP), flash it with fasboot flash recovery recovery.img
I think tdm has a thread with all stock images, flash the one for your country
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7-mini/development/firmware-stock-firmware-t3696538
If this doesn't work, maybe the verity check fails, making the device unable to boot, then go ahead and flash system and boot via fastboot.
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Good luck
just a hailmairy here but...
"(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: 'false'"
in Advanced Settings ->Developer Options->Stay Awake (while charging) [ ]
should possible be switched on as it does mentions that charging screen set to off?
Probably would only sort one item though but you never know and if it does your one more step forward.

Hi Everybody, I think I have a similar issue. After many years with regular stock system I decided to change to a custom ROM, hoping I can use my phone with my native language, which was not in the stock rom.
But now I stucked in the fastboot, and I can not get out of it. I can access my phone via fastboot, I have already flashed the TWRP, but the phone can not boot into the recovery and the system. How can I fix this? Please help me, I like this phone, I would like to get it back to life.
I bricked my Axon mini n2015 by flashing No verity boot.img and a custom recovery. Now phone is stuck in fastboot mode. Help guys, what do i do?

Within phone's Android -> Settings -> Developer options you have to enable "OEM Unlock" and reboot phone afterwards. Then you have to unlock phone's bootloader
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot reboot fastboot

@sd_shadow can you help please?
What you basically are doing wrong is NOT to use Motorola's proprietary mfastboot but Google's fastboot.
Must admit I didn't know of this, too.

Within phone's Android -> Settings -> Developer options you have to enable "OEM Unlock" and reboot phone afterwards. Then you have to unlock phone's bootloader
Code:
adb devices
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot reboot

I generally do not use mfastboot, it has not been updated in years.
but if fastboot.exe fails, it doesn't hurt to try mfastboot.

Have you ever fetched the unlock code from Motorola? No way without it If you're not able to boot into your device try to flash the latest firmware and carry on from there.
Here's how to flash the latest firmware:

I would recommend to not use mfastboot as it is outdated. Better try this one:
[TOOL][WINDOWS] ADB & Fastboot++ | February 2023
NFO: • Versions: Installer, Portable & ADBKit • Android Debug Bridge & Fastboot updated to latest v1.0.41 (Version 34.0.0-9570255, February 2023) Features: • Installation Folder chooseable (Installer) • Desktop & Start Menu Shortcuts (Installer)...

As written above, best may be to flash the latest signed firmware and start from scratch.
