[ROM] Android Revolution HD 53.1 | ART | High Quality & Performance | 6.12.401.4_R

[null0seven]

It works fine with s-on, too.

Mine, not. I'm S-ON.
!! Image Update FAIL !!
Device halted due to large image update fail!
Press <Power> to reboot.

Edit.
If you getting that, remove SD card, otherwise the phone is not getting out of bootloader. It restarts to bootloader and shows the message in RED.

Are you on 4.16.401.13 right now? Stock recovery? Is the bootloader unlocked? I'm s-on and the update worked for me, but I went back to complete stock with the 4.16.401.10 RUU, before updating.

Hey people, need some help. I wanted to update to MM, but I thought it might be too much hassle (getting to stock again), and I wanted to try this rom.
The question is, can I simply add rom to external, go to my TWRP rec and zip install this? Also wipe data/system I guess. My m8 is android v5.0.1, sense 6.0, software # 4.20.631.3

You can, but you will not have the latest firmware. From what I've read, people have reported running the older firmware with MM just fine, but you're more likely to run into problems in the future than you'd be if you went the proper way and got the newest firmware. Either flash it directly (if you're s-off) or go back to stock and get the OTA (if you're s-on and it's available for your phone). Or just try this one and do the update at some later point.

I had some last minute problems with the 52.0 but considering today's ota I will skip 52.0 and release 53.0 right away Anyone has a system dump already?

I may be missing something, but where can I dl 53.0? All I see is 51.0 on the front page. Thanks.

I hope somebody released a good and easy to understand guide for upgrading the m8 firmware from 4.xx to 6.xx for an unbraned (belgium WWE phone) s-on M8 with twrp and ARHD 51 installed. Because i want to upgrade to the new firmware but i am somewhat lost in all the different forums/guides that are available out there for doing it (and im not that super good at flashing and stuff). Hope also that mike realeases v53 fast so whe can flash that one.

Also have a small problem with google play music on v51. It seems it cant fine all my music files that are on my extrenal storage; a problem with the program or the rom? did upgrade this rom from v45 (i think) to v51 with dirty flash.

 

[crylentino]

Sorry for making you answer questions on Mike's behalf, but; do you know when it'll be available? Trying to decide whether I should just go for the current 51.0 or wait for this. Not sure how long it usually takes for him to publish.

Have a look here:

After that grab your OTA update and then with a custom recovery flash the desired ROM.

Why releasing same thing twice? RUU 6.12.401.4 and OTA 6.12.401.4_R are absolutely exactly the same (see post by Isotopes in updates thread of general section).

It's not working, this time, for me. I've must done 1 step wrong...

I hope this is the same honestly no expertise to assess and therefore to inquire on the forums right I flash the RUU 6.12.401.4 and no one knew to say whether the 6.12.401.4 OTA R is the same or has some differences right previously rumored that it appeared two bag and that it was corrected and received an R ratingor was it just a fictional story to justify why they were late with update.

I didn't understand a word of that. Sorry mate!

Assuming you guys are S-On and bootloader-unlocked from HTC-Dev, this is the basic idea of firmware upgrade:
Return to stock:
0. Make sure you have the latest TWRP Recovery
1. Find/Download Nandroid backup of your stock ROM that matches your current firmware, and put it in your internal/external storage (/TWRP/BACKUPS/Your serial/Nandroid folder)
2. Find/Download Stock Recovery that matches your current firmware
3. Nandroid restore the stock ROM in TWRP
4. Flash stock recovery in fastboot

Upgrade Stock/Firmware:
5. Boot up your phone. Settings > About > Software Updates
6. Let it update and reboot when required
7. Repeat 5. until no more update (By this time you should have your latest firmware as well already)

(Optional) custom ROM:
(Download ARHD ROM (or wait for 53), put to internal/external storage)
8. Flash latest TWRP recovery
9. Flash ARHD ROM in TWRP
10. Win.

This is basic idea of upgrading firmware with S-On. The details part is exactly like what P.Pan posted.

Hope it is clear for you!

I think firmware is the same, however there may be kernel differences. Sneakyghost firmware thread also concurs

Hello,
Can some body advice, just download ota update Marshmello 1,6 GB now on my internal storage, where can i find this image to capture it and save. Thanks

You need to be rooted. With a root explorer of your choice, go to /data/data and simply search for .zip. I did it the same way but can't remember the package it was in. Could be com.HTC.updater, but I'm not sure

Based on this difference of the build number I suppose, that there are changes between the 6.12.401.4_R and 6.12.401.4. @lliabtoofer also said on twitter, that the original 6.12.401.4 had critical bugs, the corrected version have R number.

as original post says::

@ all who will ask whether the files between ota and latest ruu are equal?

YES!!! I tested both systems and they are absolutely identical.

For a fresh 6.12.401.4 install you can take the leaked RUU.

he is trustworthy user and big contributor, so if he said he tested both, he tested them and compared.

and as llabtoofer mentioned, the problem was probably in the radio/firmware - because EU WWE has wide range of countries so the networks to support. so all system files are the same.

really? but system is the same in both versions, so it was indeed only the firmware that changed...
