Hey Guys,

my HTC One M8 ran on GPE 4.4.3, but today came an OTA update, which I wanted to install.
So I clicked install and my phone restarted to TWRP and the update wasn't installed.

Then I found this tutorial and tried it.

http: / / htc-one.wonderhowto.com/how-to/update-your-rooted-google-play-edition-htc-one-4-4-3-without-losing-any-data-0155404/

After flashing the OTA my boot loader menu turned black (image) and i wasn't able to install any Roms, also my phone sucks on boot screen.

Is it bricked?
I don't know what to do, please help me :(

It's certainly not bricked if you can access the boot loader.
Which recovery have you got installed now?

The device is an regular "sense-device", but i flashed a GPE Rom, and after i wanted to flash the GPE 4.4.4 OTA update, it crashed.
And the screenshot of my last post was taken, when i tried to flash the GPE Rom again.

Could you try a different ROM please? I would recommend SlimKat, and going from there if you want to change.

I think this wouldn't change anything, because i also can't restore a sense backup, i've made after rooting my phone.
But i wonder, why my boot loader menu changed its background to black. I guess, i have to refresh the stock boot loader, but i don't know how to do that.
