HOX does not boot after trying to update - HTC One X

Hi,
I tried to update my HOX to the latest 4.2.2 OTA update. The recovery said that I can not update because the CID assertion failed. My CID is HTC__102 which was in the list and I downloaded the zip with the built in update service. So I just removed the assertion lines in the updater-script of the zip and flashed it using CWM. The flash went well, but now I am not able to boot the device anymore.
What can I do now? Do you need any other information? HBOOT is 1.72.
Best regards!
Update:
I forgot to relock the bootloader. After doing so I was able to flash the firmware.zip from the OTA package. Now it works again.

Returned to stock but can't update to latest RUU

I just returned to stock after having tried several ROMs.
I now have 2.13.401.2 and my HBOOT is 1.09.0099. I am S-ON and RELOCKED.
I try to update to: RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed
I have tried both before and after relock and the RUU setup used to fail with error 140, pointing me to get apropriate ruu utility
I have extracted and renamed the rom.zip to PG76IMG.zip and flash from bootloader but then it fails with message (Main version is Older! Update Fail!"
I don't use goldcard as I am totally unbranded and never needed to use it before.
Maybe it's due to my HBoot?
I apreicate any help
Edit:
Fixed. After reflashing OTA worked correctly and the update was downloaded from OTA

[q] help main ver too high to do anything

Hi
Having some issues with HOX
My mainver is: 3.78.61.6 HIGER THAN ANY EXISTING MAINVER POSSIBLE
I can ONLY install stock software via CustomRUU as i need to match mainver to = 3.78.61.6 WHICH IS HIGHER THAN JB!!!
ONCE INSTALLED I CAN NOT OTA UPGRADE because MainVer is HIGHER than JB update.
So it just crashes after installed (At Lock Ring). Because stock is installed i MUST do OTA update as phone insists i update.
JB RUU DOES NOT EXIST for my CID BUT OTA JB UPDATE DOES
Cid: TELNZ001
hboot 1.12.000 (BUT UPDATE IS INCLUDED IN OTA)
I have the ota zip file, which has FOLDERS not IMG so is not flashable.
HOWEVER DOES contain Firmware.zip with HBOOT 1.39 FOR TELNZ001 in it but is not flashable.
I have two questions:
Can anyone help me to downgrade / fool mainver, so i can revert back to stock and OTA to JB
OR
IS there a way to flash the hboot.img from OTA update.
I CANNOT flash firmware.zip from OTA as its CORRUPT and has been CORRUPT from every download site.
Thanks

Lol no matter what i post i get completly different answers than im actually looking for.
I know there is a way to charge mainver on some htc phones.
no one seems no one has a telnz001 JB backup.
and im having trouble flashing the hboot img
if i can flash the boot img i can run a jb rom...
What's the problem with flashing then ?
problem with flashing hboot?
There is NOTHING telling me how to flash the hboot.img file itself except for ruu / firmware.zip WHICH come back with errors, through fastboot i get error 99 unknown.
i cant flash it via the firmware.zip as mainver in the OTA JB ZIP is too low. either that or i need to find a way to sign the zip which is impossible.
and if i rebuild it ( make the mainver higher in the text file higher to match my mainver which is 2.76.xx.xx ) it refuses to flash.
the problem is .... i cant flash the hboot as it appears the only way is via ruu / ruu mode with firmware.zip
which is because my mainver is 3.76.xx.xx
next problem is even IF i could flash firmware.zip or ruu to an OLDER version is it updates the stock software to 2.17 but mainver still remains 3.76.xx.xx so its impossible to do the jb update which is 3.17.xx.xx
does a zip exist to make my mainver 1.00.00.00 as i would just be able to flash ruu and OTA and it will work
ive tried the mainver fixes and nothing has worked so far.
An older firmware.zip is never gonna work, you need S-OFF for that. The best is to get a nandroid backup ..... it doesn't matter if that is older or not. When you get hands on a nandroid you can restore it and update with official ota. Even if its an old one. The hboot will stay the same during updstes. The only thing that get updated is the software.
as far as I read about this, you can never downgrade with S-ON
if you want to keep using Sense , You need to look for a backup for your CID.
and I think you're probably figured that out by now
I think rephrasing the question might help you get someone to aid
and maybe you can upload the Firmware.zip for advanced developers to look at, you might get lucky and someone find an answer to you problem
anyway, you can read This , it's about Unlocking CID TELNZ001, might help?

I ony have one little problem with restoring from nandroid...
that is:
it does a couple of updates before the jb update is available
so it hits the 2.17 update maybe the update just after that and gets stuck on the lock screen and constantly reboots.

I assume, that a HTC-Stock ROM is installed on your htc one m8. NO Custom ROM and NO Custom HBoot! <- IMPORTANT
Root doesn't matter for an OTA Update.
But you have to flash the Stock Recovery that matches with your ROM Base and Relock the Bootloader.
First you must Backup your device including Internal Storage, because of the Factory Reset that happen when you Unlock the Bootloader again!

As far as I know, you can't receive a OTA Update with Super CID 111111.
It won't flash, because of the "android-info" in the OTA Update File.
The "android-Info" contains the CID that can receive the OTA, otherwise it won't flash. to avoid that the device receives a wrong OTA.
You must set it to the original Provider CID that matches with your Stock ROM.
In your case, I think:
modelid: 0P6B16000
cidnum: TELUS001
just install a custom rom...

Incorrect, SuperCID bypasses all CID checks. I was pretty sure already as this was the case on my OneXL, but for the sake of giving the correct information, I just restored a Rogers TWRP backup, flashed rogers stock recovery extracted from the rogers OTA, changed my CID to 11111111 and ran the OTA from stock recovery. As per my sig, I am not even using a rogers phone.
Ran just fine.
Does rooting and s-off affect performance at all on the m8?

What you need to do an OTA:
Stock Recovery
Stock Rom
Stock CID or SuperCID
Can I keep root!?!? Yes, you can!
As it stands there is no RUU (Rom Update Utility) to easily return to stock SO If one does not have the stock rom installed, one must restore a stock nandroid and manually flash stock recovery/

What can you do if you don't have your nandroid and it isn't listed there? You can request someone from the same carrier with a stock nandroid upload theirs within that thread.
Once you have the nandroid, it's simply a matter of putting the nandroid in the appropriate folder for your custom recovery, booting to said recovery and restoring the nandroid.
Where nandroids should be placed:
TWRP: \sdcard\TWRP\backups\

Once you have the nandroid restored, you will need to flash stock recovery. If you know the stock recovery version you should be using, you can download them on that same thread. It is also possible to extract the recovery from the OTA zip file should you have access to it. (You can use the stock rom you restored to download the OTA then extract it and the firmware.zip file within and then flash the recovery.img)

I never tried it with Super CID, to install an OTA.
In the most Tutorials that I've found it was recommended to set the original CID.
But good to Know that it works.
At least it's safer to set the original CID, in that case.

Firstly you don't need to relock the bootloder to flash an ota.
From what I can see from looking at the updater script in the ota it checks CID and MID. The CID and MID for various models seem to be listed in the updater script. If yours isn't there then it it will fail.
From what I can see it doesnt seem like a particular CID or MID is required, just one listed in the updater script.
Not sure if you can modify an updater script in a signed ota and it still work or not.

I left mine on Super CID and was able to flash the OTA. I've also read reports of others who have been able to flash the OTA after only going back to the stock recovery, however I went through the process of relocking my bootloader and insuring all "bloat" apps were restored (this was on an AT&T variant though).
Well tired doing this again but it fails, umm says cid unknown in the recovery screen when try I to flash the ota, tired changing my cid to original and to supercid, still same.thing, don't know what I am doing wrong
I also tried going back to stock and running the update but says it Won't install since it thinks the phone is rooted

Really? This is terrific info. Not that I care to do any type of OTA, (why bother? It'll be on XDA in a couple of minutes lol) but it is something to remember. I didn't realize the Super CID was that expansive. I did realize that it allowed you to use your phone on any carrier though, so I probably should have picked up on that.

Firmware update when S-on?

I come from HTC One m7 world where it was possible to have S-on phone and still flash new firmware, as long as the CID was correct.
Now I have a M9 with CID Y_13 (and OS 1.40.401.8) using TWRP 2870 with ViperOne 2.3.1 rom. I found a firmware zip 2.10.401.1-Firmware.zip that is for Y_13 CID.
Can I flash it in either download or bootloader mode, at all? I have tried and so far get errors ERR ZIP ERROR CODE, 14 etc. I searched but didnt get a clear answer.
PS: I did make system image backup on my stock rom (1.40.401 something) but cannot find a stock recovery.. if taking official OTA is the only way to go.

OTA to 4.19.617.1, this package is for htc_himaulatt devices; this is a htc_himauh

Hi Folks,
I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction please. Here's the story:
I bought a T-mobile branded HTC One M9
Changed it to WWE and ran with a it for a while without issue
Changed to Dev edition and applied the Android7OTA.zip (4.14.617.6) then TWRP, currently running without issue.
I got a notification of another OTA (4.19.617.1) earlier this evening.
Flashed the stock recovery I extracted from the android 7 dev RUU
Downloaded the OTA on the phone and once the phone booted into the stock recovery, I'm told:
'this package is for "htc_himaulatt" devices; this is a "htc_himauhl". Installation aborted'
Fastboot getvar all currently shows:
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_himaulatt
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) serialno: xxxx
(bootloader) current-slot:
(bootloader) imei: xxxx
(bootloader) version-main: 4.14.617.6
(bootloader) boot-mode: download
(bootloader) version-baseband: 01.01_U11440971_103.00.61018G_F
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
(bootloader) mid: 0PJA11000
(bootloader) cid: BS_US001
I've read of using a cid of BS_US002, I've changed to that and retried applying the OTA, but it did the same (so I changed it back).
Assuming the Product reported by fastboot is what's being checked... fastboot's reporting it's already set to what the stock recovery seems to be saying it needs to be. It was happy flashing the first RUU, I'm not sure what might be different this time round.
I bet there's a small thing I might need to change, but I don't know what.
Does anyone else please?
Also.. I've not found much info at all about the OTA to 4.19.617.1. Is it new enough that me somehow getting it off the phone (will probably need brief instructions) could be useful to anyone?
TIA!
Currently having the same problem.
Will post here if i have any luck.
Thanks philicibine.
I've just tried it with supercid too (fastboot oem writecid 11111111), but it didn't do the trick.
Before the phone reboots into the stock recovery, it says ''we have determined that your phone may be running a modified version of its system software....'.
ok so my phone is currently accepting the update!
The problem for me was I had installed TWRP. In trying to restore the stock recovery i was restoring the one from the NoWipe firmware file i used to upgrade to Nougat.
To solve, I extracted the recovery.img from the OTA.zip and flashed that.
Almost finished updating!
here is the recovery.img if you want to try it >> https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzkydKcZdx9YWW55UDlIOV95UDA

It was the stock recovery from the first android7 devRUU that I've been trying this with. Which OTA did you get this one from?
I've flashed it and the newest OTAs downloading again as I type..
edit: the file you posted a link to (thanks!) and the recovery I was originaly using are definitely different... My phones just failed to apply the update again, but given a different reason 'system parition has unexpected contents'. Guess I've not left system untouched as I thought.
I've just tried extracting system from the original devAndroid7RUU.zip and now I'm getting errors about it not being able to decrypt the .zip.. so must have somehow taken the recovery from another RUU.zip earlier this evening (which wouldn't have been a devRUU, but a WWE-explaining why it reported my phone didnt match the dev edition details). I was doing it remotely form work, while working-must be more careful, I guess.
This means I cant extract system from the right RUU.zip though.
I think I could flash the RUU.zip again (wiping everything, grrr), then let it install the later OTA before doing anything that could amend system.
I'd realy like to not wipe it if posible though.
How did you get the recovery you posted out of the OTA.zip please?
It maybe the same recovery then as I got it from the Dev ota. Seemed to work for me. Maybe you could flash the nowipe firmware and then this if it doesn't work?

I simply unzipped it. It was in the firmware.zip archive inside the OTA.zip
I'm pretty confident the two recovery's are different, my phone does different things with the OTA depanding on which of the recovery's I've flashed.
I used 'HTC_RUU_Decrypt_Tool_3.1.0-WINDOWS64' to extract the recovery from what I thought was the devRUU.zip. This wont open the devRUU.zip now though, so I must have had it extract the wrong RUU earlier.
I've just flashed the stock android7 firmware and the recovery you posted a link to and the OTAs re-downloading
Edit:
I'm still in the same situation, it's reporting system's modified
I think I might just RUU it again. I need my phone running and set up over the next few days though, so it'll have to wait until Christmas is out the way.
Many thanks for your help though.
Do you see many differences after you've applied it?
(And I managed to type ota instead of ruu in the op, I've amended)
Hey guys,
I'm having the exact same issue. The way I was working it around was flashing the update via RUU from laptop but now I'm tired kf doing that every time when there is an update. I will restore my factory recovery and will try it again. After I've done so, I'll get back to you about it.
Best Regards
I couldn't sleep last night, so went for it with the DevRUU.zip I originally used..
It flashed fine as before, then my phone downloaded and applied the OTA just fine.
I couldn't get SuperSU to install properly afterwards though, so restored a TWRP backup so I could use my phone today.
I've been getting the OTA notification repeatedly during the day today though. Seems you can only postpone it for up to 4 hours, rather than dismiss it or turn off checking entirely. It's annoying.
So, I might give it another go pretty soon!
I just RUUd again and then did the OTA.
SuperSU-v2.65 (that I was using pre-OTA) woudn't install, showing 'Patching secpol. Failed. Arborting'
SuperSU-v2.79 installed just fine.
Sorted.
Hey guys. Just went to stock recovery. Unzipped from ota.zip>installed it>recovery works>phone reboot into system>finds the new update>starts to install>rebokts to recovery>starts updating up to 24%25% and then gets me back to recovery saying there is some error. What should I do? I don't want to update via RUU. Thanks

But if I follow those steps, this means fresh new install of the os which is basically the same as RUU install. Or you nent something else? Thanks
P. S. I just fully unrooted my phone so now it is exactly the way you described above but the new update still doesn't install. It gives me this error and I don't understand why: 'system parition has unexpected contents'

hi.a poor understanding of English and how to correctly put on this site files. I had the same problem. phone-htc__a07 no rooted android 6.0 twrp recovery. OTA updates do not come to android 7.0. write step by step what did was changed the cid to BS__US001,mid on 0PJA11000.restored twrp backup http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/development/one-m9-4-14-617-6-stock-root-twrp-backup-t3518149 then came the notice about the ota updates until they 4.19.617.1 but I have not installed the same as yours.https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BwrbLN0SdCTgQ2NseVMtdDhXV3c?usp=sharing I flashed these recovery and firmware and after that everything was installed.try. flash a twrp backup of course is not necessary if you already is 7.0 skip this step...
Hello,
Reporting back.
So what I did was, I took the RUU, flashed RUU, then updated to the newest update with no problem. Had no issues restoring my phone exactly how it was before to flash the RUU. Phone restored automatically from google account. The only thing which didn't restore was my wallpaper (like I care about it ). So that's it. Thank you very much for your help.
Best Regards

thanks for inform ))))
I just wanted to add to the list of install methods. Here is what I attempted.
All attempts with MID 0PJA11000:
Rooted 4.14.617.6 with TWRP recovery and CID BS_US001 - OTA failed (doesnt hurt to try )
Flashing RUU 4.14.617.6.exe with CID BS_US001 - OTA failed
Flashing RUU 4.14.617.6.exe with CID 11111111 - OTA failed
Flashing RUU 4.14.617.6.zip with CID 11111111 - OTA failed
After the above line and changing the CID to BS_US001 - successful
It appears you must run an ruu.zip to accept the OTA no matter what. Strange the exe's will not work. It also appears the master CID no longer works. Surprisingly I was able to change the CID after running the .zip install and still accept the OTA with no problems.

asar201 I did want to ask and make sure, did you use double __ in your CID or just one _?
