Stock Nand 2.22.401.5[Guaranteed Official OTA to 3.28.401.6]

[ahsan64]

Hi All

NOTE : Only For S-ON International(WWE) with base 2.22.401.xx users .. If you are S-OFF just flash firmware .

I am seeing lots of people want to update their M8 to 3.28.401.6 firmware but most of the CID's still not officially updated and the threads like HERE gets loads of posts on how to, where to and what to types of questions..

So here is the solution to get OTA if you are S-ON with main version 2.22.401.xx . Although i tried it on 2.22.401.5 but it should work for all 2.22.401.xx .

Download this nand(CID Y13) from HERE and restore it using TWRP recovery .Then flash custom recovery from HERE .

Search for the update it should be available , download install and enjoy new firmware ..

Note : These CID's are compatible and flash flash this nand :

HTC__001
HTC__E11
HTC__102
HTC__203
HTC__405
HTC__Y13
HTC__304
HTC__A07
HTC__002
HTC__016
HTC__032
HTC__J15
HTC__M27
HTC__A48
HTC__K18

Great that you got a definite backup that will give them OTA, now comes the flood of obvious questions.

How the heck do you restore with TWRP?

Unzip the downloaded file.Then place like this in Internal storage TWRP/BACKUPS/your device serial no /extact folder here.
In my case its like this TWRP/BACKUPS/SH443WM04574/2.22.401.5

Reboot to recovery and press restore option and let the recovery do its own work ..

Yeah, I know how to restore backups. I was talking about the general "population" asking the obvious questions like:

How to restore?
Will this work with CID HTC__M27?
Will I be able to do OTA if I have 2.22.401.5?

etc etc

Oh and of course "Will this work with S-OFF? You said "S-ON only"
