I have a Canadian HTC m9 , bootloader unlock, Twrp , rooted.
i was going to do a OTA to get the fix for the camera and heat issue. however on the process to revert back i end up stuck on the HTC splash screen with recover twrp acess .
what i did is did flash my backup file before the root and tried flashing stock recovery file. but no luck.
i tried flashing again the twrp and still no luck. and everytime i tried to reboot it shows NO OS installed.
any suggestion on what i can do to fix it? im kind new in HTC, i read upon the forum and not sure where to get RUU or the right ROM or if i should flash does stuff..... can i get some help?
I would suggest you flash the latest recovery through fastboot (2.8.6.4) from here https://basketbuild.com/devs/Captain_Throwback/One (M9)/Recovery and try to flash a custom rom or run an RUU if there is any for your variant

you solved the problem at the meantime?
if not.
push via adb a rom.zip to your sdcard and flash it via twrp recovery
yes it did fix it, i was able to boot the phone up again however, can i still flash my original back up so that i can get OTA? i tried using Venon ROM and according to them i can get the OTA but when i tried to update it no update available and i know there is one. i check my build # it still the old one, 1.32.401.17 CL506785 release key.
any idea?
thanks for your time.

Hello there,
I might have ****ed up.
I was on ViperOne 1.8.0 for a long time, but decided to wait for L which is now here.
As I know, I need a new firmware flashed, but as I wasn't on s-off, every method failed (FUU flasher and also flashing via adb, it rejected the file)
So I decided to give sunshine a shot to s-off my phone, but dang, it didn't want to as I am not on a stock boot img.
So, what was the logical step? Flash a stock boot img, the newest one. boot_3.28.401.9.img it was.
Now I am stuck on the white htc boot screen, combination for recovery (power+voldown) is not working. Can't switch the phone off or anything, it just is stuck there. Well actually it runs, I get message notifications and the LED blinks and I can also connect via USB but I just don't get into the user interface.
I can however reboot it by pressing power+volup, but it just gets stuck in the white screen again respectively is running but stuck in the whitescreen.
Installing RUU does not work. Phone is not recognized albeit being accessible in Windows Explorer.
adb is not working, doesn't recognize the phone so also no way to get into recovery or bootloader.
How am I supposed to flash stock img now to get it back to life?
Okay, got into bootloader now by pressing Power+VolUp and then VolDown.
I tried to flash 4.16.401.10-Firmware.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701376
but it says signature verify fail
So how can I get a valid firmware on my phone so I can flash TWRP and Viper and be happy?
What could be possible is to flash the ViperOne's boot.img (of the one I have installed) but that won't help me get newest firmware and lollipop.
Trying the old fashioned way now... got myself a TWRP backup of the stock image that corresponds to my firmware. Hopefully it will install and boot through. Then I just let it OTA all the way up until I got the newest version, then firmware and everything should be right and I can flash Viper. Hope that works.
After you flash the TWRP backup you will need to restore the stock recovery as OTA updates won't work with TWRP
Yup, did that. Thank god, it boots now.
I am on a super old System now of course, like last June or something.
But all I should do now is let it OTA all the way up to lollipop, right? Then I'll have firmware and everything up to date so I just unlock again, flash TWRP, flash my Rom and be done?
Probably easier to connect in fastboot and use fastboot getvar all to give more details on your details (remove your IMEI and serial number)
Hello guys,
Just got my m9 a few hours ago, decided to root,s-off etc
Anyway, I did something stupid and Im stuck on the android logo.
Here is what I did.
-I updated the device through the stock recovery, there was another update but I didnt install i.
- unlocked the bootloader, phone rebooted and was working fine
-installed costume recovery(TWRP), I didnt boot into it because there wasnt and option like in the m8 to boot in recovery from bootloader.
-I reset the device and installed the update(stupid move I knew the stock recovery is not there)
- I got into TWRP and the updated failed so I had the SUbinary.zip so I plashed it and decided to reboot
-Here I got a note that theres no OS installed so I installed android Revolution, I placed it in the sdcard prior
- after flashing it I pressed on reboot yet I get no OS installed and now im stuck on the HTC logo.
BTW I can boot into boot loader but it says sd card not mounted (64GB)
Edit:
I entered into recovery, flashed AR again,its installs everything normally but I realized on the installation log last line : set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
still I get no OS installed
I got it working now. Anyone whos having this problem just use the beta recovery because the official one is broken
here's a like https://basketbuild.com/devs/Captain_Throwback/One (M9)/Recovery
just flash it normally and install the rom again.
now i will have to go back to stock recovery and download the OTA the flash TWRP again -.-
will the OTA work on the ARHD and stock recovery or thats not possible?

I dont think the OTA will work.
either find the latest full RUU and flash it, or an older RUU, flash it, then do all the available OTAs.
Then redo TWRP and ARHD.

Thats good to hear, sometimes TWRP will say that there isn't any OS installed but actually there is just reboot the device.
After updating through the OTA I installed ARHD and I got the same error again with the latest recovery. I think its because when I did wipe the data there root directory is changing make the phone unable to boot or there is a problem with the rom although it flashed before the update.
Here is a fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/one...h-recovery-t3066720/post59934542#post59934542
If it didn't work try to format data in the recovery and reboot. Make sure you have a ROM or back up on an SD card.
Since your phone is running I would suggest you to S-off because from what I understand is RUU (for Europe) will only work with S-off

Hello all!
I recently flashed the 4.16.xx firmware to my device. I am now stuck on the Bliss Rom bootscreen for some reason. Booting into recovery takes me to stock recovery and the phone isn't being recognized through ADB on several different PC's.
Am I screwed here? Any options?
Thanks for any input.
Try going into the fastboot option from the hboot (or called bootloader to many people. To get to hboot, do power and volume down when the phone is booting up. ) and try flashing your TWRP recovery from there. Also make sure your drivers are working.
If you don't know how to flash recovery just Google it, you should be fine.
Dw, dont panic, it'll be fine xD

Stock recovery is the logical result for flashing firmware, unless the firmware was hacked to remove stock recovery.
adb not working, is also normal. You need to be in OS or recovery to use adb commands (and I don't know whether you can with stock recovery). adb does not work in bootloader.
If you flashed an official firmware with s-on, then not boot is also the expected result.
You need to unlock the bootloader again, flash TWRP back onto the phone, and flash a ROM.

Hey thanks for the reply!
I figured it out finally and forgot to update the post. I ended up finding and flashing a Lollipop RUU from the SDcard and that got me booted up. Then I just had to re-flash TWRP, re-root and flash a new rom.
All is well now. Thanks for trying to help out.
I previously rooted my htc one with s-off as well. Had TWRP 2.8.6.4 and Viper ROM. I recently decided to use the htc again and tried updating everything. First, I flashed new Viper ROM. ROM wouldnt boot up but gave successful install. I can only assume because the firmware was out of date on my phone. I then tried flashing TWRP 302 img and now phone wont boot into twrp. I was able to get into download mode, bootloader and thats it. I downloaded the Batch tool and did cmd/ adb reboot download. It took my phone to a black screen with a security warning about flashing any rom not fron htc can get you info stolen. I then tried fastboot flash zip rom.zip Unfortunately the rom.zip i had from Sneakyghost's firmware page isnt compatible with my sprint phone. I am looking for the correct zip to flash. It seems that i am committed at this point to this method because i cannot reboot into bootloader anymore. At least i think i cannot. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you
I was able to restart phone back into bootloader
i can access download mode as well but cannot boot into recovery mode
Software status : modified
Unlocked
s-off
Whenever i try flashing a slightly older version of TWRP i get a successful flash on both phone and computer but it still wont reboot into recovery
hello I am trying to fix this old phone which keeps bootlooping. I can't get to the OS, and the bootloader won't show. When I try to go to the bootloader, I get to the recovery screen. I tried looking for an answer on google but all of the ones I found needed me to boot to the OS first. please link me to a tutorial for how to fix these, and explain like you would to a complete newbie. Thank you
This what you will flash the stock recovery of your phone since is booting into recovery. Now have in your sdcard the stock firmware renamed to whateva your line of desire is 0pjfimg etc. Now when your reboot your phone it will boot into the stock recovery there is an option for bootloader/hoot screen.The phone will see the firmware when it boot into bootloader. So and let me know ok.
