Either you S-OFF with sunshine (costs 25 USD) so you can flash the leaked firmware or you wait untill the official OTA gets distributed by HTC. If you choose to do the latter you need to restore your system to stock, unrooted, read-only state by flashing a RUU or restoring a stock backup and reflashing the stock recovery.

The update from the link is for the Asian SKU 709. If you go back to a stock version with the SKU 401 you can only use updates with the same SKU and the update for firmware 2.10.401.1 has not been realesed officially untill now.
Edit: Maybe I understood you wrong. What is your actual firmware version? I mean the one that is stated in the download mode in the line with "OS" at the beginning. That is the firmware you need to look for if you want to get back to stock. The one in settings>about only tells you the base of the rom you are using.

Your phone is S-ON so you can only go back to the stock firmware that belongs to your phones SKU. You need to look at the "OS" line in download mode if you want to know which SKU versions you can use.

Since you're s-on, you're already on .709 firmware. There is no way you could be on anything else because it would not flash. Still, you should reboot to download mode and see what it says. If it's 1.32.709 as I expect, proceed.
1. Use Titanium Backup to back up all your user data and apps to your external sdcard; remove it.
2. Relock and run the existing RUU for your phone (this will wipe everything). Link is in this thread; follow instructions in the OP.
3. Wait until the OTA shows up and install.
4. Unlock and reroot, then restore your backed up data and apps.

when i entered download mode , my OS showed me 1.40.709.8
so i assume now ,
relock my bootloader , run RUU 1.32.709 then OTA from my phone till i reach 1.40.709.8 and then i use the OTA in this thread to upgrade to 2.10.709.1 :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61995182&postcount=373

Correct. Although I think there is no need to flash the last OTA manually. You can update via the OTA function until you reach 2.10.709.1 since it's been released officially.

No. If you're on 1.40, the 1.32 RUU will not flash because you're s-on—you can't downgrade. You need to find the 1.40.709 RUU. Let me look around.
Edit: It doesn't seem to be posted anywhere I can find. You need to get back to stock to flash an OTA. I think your only option unless HTC releases a RUU for 2.10.709 may be to s-off and update manually.

Actually downgrading with S-ON is possible as long as the bootloader version doesn't need to be downgraded, too (source). Just checked on my phone that the aboot is even with the 2.7.401.1 firmware still on version 1.0.0.0000. So there should be no problem.

Download and use HTC_fast boot.exe instead of facebook.exe. you can find HTC_fastboot by searching the forum. Just place it on the same folder as your current fastboot.exe file.
Command are the same except instead of typing "fastboot flash..." It's "HTC_fastboot flash..."
Edit: this is because regular fastboot can't handle files over 2GB.

Main version not allowed looks like its saying you can't downgrade. Maybe the bootloader version changed.

Which RUU did you try to flash? As far as I know there is one for 1.32.709.6 and one for 1.36.709.3. Best case scenario would be you downloaded a wrong RUU. Worst case scenario would be that downgrading is (in contrast to the post I linked earlier) not aboot dependent and not possible if the software numbers (in your case the 40 you want to downgrade to 32 or 36) differ.

mY RECOMMENDATION IS TO WAIT UNTIL DE 2.10 RUU ZIP AND DO THE SCARD METHOD, IS SAFE FAST AND THEN YOU GOT A FULL STOCK CLEAN OF BLOATWARE, ALSO IYOU WILL BECOME OFFICIAL STOCK, YOU WOULD HAVE TO ROOT AGAIN AND FLASH TWRP. NO S-OFF REQUIERED.

And i got OTA Notification to update to 2.10.709.1 >> downloaded it >> but it doesn't install >> i know that i must flash stock recovery and " RELOCK " bootloader
can anyone provide me stock recovery for 1.40.709.8 ??
what is the next steps i have to do , because when i " RELOCK " my bootloader >> device start in bootloader mode and don't boot and i have to unlock it again so it can boot , what causes this ??

Flashing OTAs with TWRP isn't possible but you can use the recovery that is placed in the OTA. The OTA can be found in
Code:
/data/data/com.htc.updater/files/
Just copy it to your pc and open the zip file. The recovery can be found in one of the subfolders. Next step would be making a TWRP backup with only recovery checked. After the backup has finished you need to copy it to your pc, too. Now you need to rename the stock recovery you grabbed from the OTA to
Code:
recovery.emmc.win
and replace the recovery in the backup with the renamed file. Next you need to copy the backup back to your phone and restore it with TWRP. When you reboot now TWRP will be replaced by the stock recovery and you should be able to install the OTA. I'm not sure whether it is necessary to relock for the update with S-ON. With S-OFF it is actually not needed.
Edit: I missed the part where you stated that you're still rooted and assumed that you restored a "read-only backup". My instructions won't work until you restored a stock, unrooted and read-only system beforehand.

I've read around on the forums here and other places but some of it doesn't make any sense to me and I watched a YouTube video about unlocking the bootloader then rooting the phone unfortunately i didn't do a nandroid back up before rooting (using supersu) and i am wondering if it is possible to flash to a stock rom so that in the future i can ota update in the future.
here is what i have at the moment
international phone (im on o2 in the uk anyway)
android version: 5.0.2
Software number: 1.32.401.15
unlocked bootloader
rooted
s-off
SuperCID
Also if someone can guide me through this i would be extremely thankful.
Thanks for your help guys.
You would need to either get a nandroid of your particular carriers ROM, or download the correct RUU from HTC.

it's also easy to rename the RUU.zip to 0PJAIMG.ZIP, place it on a ext sd card formatted in FAT32 (a 16 or 32gig one should work), reboot into DOWNLOAD_MODE, agree and it should flash.

ok managed to flash it back successfully couple of things though:
i couldnt copy the file when it was named 0JAIMPG.ZIP to the sd card (was in the phone not sure if i had to take it out and put it on)
it still says "software status modified" "unlocked" "s-off" afaik you can't get software status back to normal, to get unlocked back to locked would mean me relocking the bootloader and s-off shouldnt matter with ota update?
if i was to now re-install twrp but before rooting i took a nandroid backup would this allow me to get ota updates if i then restore to that after rooting or would one of the things above prevent me?
if not is there anyway i can get ota updates again?

If you used the htc_fastboot to flash it will not reset the modified tag
you have to do it yourself >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/how-to-restore-software-status-original-t3092882
To set unlocked to locked you have to do this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/how-to-lock-unlock-bootloader-htcdevs-t3092036

Just leave it as htc_fastboot. They can coexist.
Dude, what's it tell you after you get the error 90? Flash again immediately, right? EVERYONE gets error 90 when flashing firmware. It's a pre-check before actually doing anything. If you're phone reboots to OS after getting 90, then just leave your command/terminal window open and put your phone back in download mode and re-run the exact same command to start the flash again.

That's what I have been doing.... Did not know EVERYONE gets that error. Thanks for the info though. From what I read elsewhere is that the htc_fastboot will reboot back into download mode instead of os. That's why I mentioned it.

No problem bro. I think I've gotten reboots to is using HTC_fastboot, too.

your using the wrong fastboot
you need htc_fastboot >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96039337900114016
it's also easy to rename the RUU.zip to 0PJAIMG.ZIP, place it on a ext sd card formatted in FAT32 (a 16 or 32gig one should work), reboot into DOWNLOAD_MODE, agree and it should flash.

I'm sorry to tell you but if you updated to 5.1 and did not go into developer options and check to allow bootloader unlock, and then locked your bootloader theirs is nothing you can do but flash a RUU. Are you s-off ? If no your most likely stuck.
I have no idea what the file name you posted above is for... Edit: This may be the help you need >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347810886
Sir I am S-On. I am trying to flash a RUU but getting error everytime. Tried from SD card. tried via fastboot.
Also my M9 is HTC Asia (Hongkong). So I have tried flashing below one. Can I try flashing TW version given by you??

With S-ON it's not possible to downgrade or to flash RUUs that were made for other SKUs (Taiwan is 709 and Hongkong is 708). Since you can't use the RUU in my AFH folder because it's older than your actual firmware and there is no other RUU for the SKU 708 (or at least none I know) than that one you linked your only hope might be the RUU service on llabtoofer's website.
Edit @clsA: That file amit_coolcampus mentioned earlier is one of the OTAs for the Hongkong version of the M9.

Honestly, I don't know. I've always been able to recover my phones without the help of the HTC service center or the RUU service. My guess is that the RUU service might be cheaper but that's only a guess. Maybe someone else here had to use one or both of these services and can share his/her experience...
Hello,
I have been having a lot of trouble lately and all of my problems can be fixed by doing an RUU. The issue is my m9 will not take a full RUU it gets stuck at 50% and I get an error 155 in the HTC exe. The phone itself freezes on the screen with red security text a phone with a spinning circular arrow and a green progress bar. After the freeze I can reboot the phone by volup and pwr. I can access bootloader, and download mode. Doing an RUU by the zip file on the sd card in download mode results in "Failed: -2, 8: fail to flash via downloadzip
How I got here.
relocked bootloader without selecting allow oem unlock in dev settings
attempted an RUU and it froze no ROM installed
attempted to unlock bootloader to get error message because of allow unlock not selected in dev settings
attempted to flash using sd card and download mode to get error above
I am s-on and relocked
I am so stuck right now and I need some help

ok. so error 155 could be a connectivity issue. Check device manager or try a different USB port.
Also, do you have HTC Sync Manager installed on the PC? It's required for an RUU to run. Otherwise you get 155.

You can't flash firmware when you're s-on.
For the RUU, maybe open device manager while it's running to make sure the device is recognized throughout the process. I suppose it's possibly a bad download, but I'm not sure the exe would run at all of that was the case.

Meaning you are s-on, relocked, can't boot into the OS, and did not tick "allow oem unlock"?
If that's the case, your only options are to run the ruu for your firmware version or, if that doesn't work or none exists, return it to htc for repair.

yes unfortunately I am S-on, bootloader reloacked (to take the official update). It all started when my official HTC RUU crashed mid way!!! it still crashes..I can get to fastboot, recovery download mode etc but just cant RUU any more as it will crash around 62% saying errror 115 ..get the correct RUU for your device ... it stops at fail to update signature or something... Repeated this this multiple times..same result... I was trying to update to 5.1 from 5.01 software. The download mode does say that I have 2.X.502.18 OS but I believe it did not finish installing all...
I have head there is another way of putting the RUU.zip file and renaming it to some specific name and putting it in your sd card and applying update or may be it will automatically install in download mode?
Can someone help me get that zip file for ATT 5.1 version or outline the process ? my last hope!

Can't you just unlock with htcdev, get TWRP and flash a rom to check "allow oem unlocking"?
I don't really understand what that option does as I was unlocked at version 5.0.2 though, sorry for my ignorance.

the problem is since the RUU failed in the middle of updating to 5.1 and I already have relocked the bootloader before applying RUU (you have to lock the bootloader or RUU will fail) and now with partially installed 5.1 on my phone, there was a new security feature that was added that youa have to check allow oem unlock on developer settings.
So now I am stcuk, cant got to developer setting as I cant boot to OS, RUU keeps failing on me, can not unlock bootloader as its not even letting me get the token...fails saying "
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] : /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/frp
(bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock

any way to allow oem unlock in fastboot instead of through developer settings?
any other clue?

Did you try the SD-card method ?
Code:
rename the RUU.zip to 0PJAIMG.ZIP,
place it on a ext sd card formatted in FAT32 (a 16 or 32gig one should work),
reboot into DOWNLOAD_MODE, agree and it should flash.
thatts the only thing I have not tried. I will do so tonight and report back.
BTW any place I can grab the ATT 5.1 RUU.zip ? It has to be 2.X.502.18 OS as thats what I see in download screen. With locked bootloder I believe I can only update or re-install the same version.
I extracted rom.zip out of the HTC RUU.EXE file (grabbing it from the temp folder). Do i Just rename it from rom.zip to 0PJAIMG.zip ? I tried to open rom.zip in the arhive app abut it failed to open it ? is that expected?

Sd card method failed too...gives some error say unable to flash from sd card ERROR -2.
Seems like I'll have to return it to ATT or should I send it to HTC ? it is S-on but bootloader is re-locked. I hope ATT wont mind taking it back. I believe its under one year warranty period. I mean was just trying to install 5.1 manually after it failed to take OTA.
Never relock your bootloader on HTC especially on 5.1 and spend $25 to get S-OFF lesson learned!

Make sure you don't accept root when asked by TWRP.
After OTA is downloaded, let the system install it, no manual install. The first boot will take time.

I want to have Android 6.0 functional either official or custom ROM , or at least spend KitKat , if there are other ways please shares , Eh understood many things thanks to you and now I understand , with other devices I've had it was easier but this has been difficult
You're on KiKat now.. I'm preparing files for you to manually update to lollipop.
Once done, I want you to try to update to Marshmallow. If no success, I'll tell how to manually update to Marshmallow after you tried system update.
This will involve relocking bootloader assuming your device is S-On (you don't give fastboot getvar all result that I asked before)
1. Install TWRP 2.8.4.0 (as you said this is the highest TWRP version that you can install and can boot to it)
2. Download the 4.32.600.2 backup and restore - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/tutorial-how-to-stock-stock-twrp-t3086860
(just follow the steps as in the guide 1-10 only, skip the rest)
3. Download fw_4.32.600.2.zip - https://sourceforge.net/projects/htconem8/files/fw_4.32.600.2.zip/download
4. Install the firmware
1. If the bootloader is UNLOCKED (for S-On device only), relock it with commands:
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
If the bootloader is LOCKED or RELOCKED, skip the above.
2. Put the device in bootloader/fastboot mode and connect to PC, run these commands
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip fw_4.32.600.2.zip
you'll see ERROR/FAILED, repeat
fastboot flash zip fw_4.32.600.2.zip
fastboot reboot-bootloader
You should see the OS written 4.32.600.2 (in green color) on the bootloader.
Now reboot the device .. once the setup completed, check OTA. You should have 6.17.600.3 OTA, download and let system install.
Once the OTA installation is completed and phone rebooted to OS ... you now have a Marshmallow updated firmware & ROM.
You can unlock bootloader again with unlock_code.bin that you received from HTC or apply a new one.
Once unlocked, install TWRP 3.0.2-0, you can install any custom ROM that you like

Don't start after restore 4.32.600.2, only boot to bootloader to install 4.32.600.2 firmware. This will get you to hboot 3.18.0000
Only after you installed firmware then only you can restart.
If this also you cannot follow the guide, I don't know how else to help you.
My first guide should be the easiest way but you keep saying it didn't boot. I believe because the guide was not followed accordingly.
@joikep - are you still around ? If yes, maybe you can help as it seems we have language barrier here.

Reflash RUU will get you to stock. But will wipe everything. Then you can take the OTA. Also this should be in the Q&A section
i did it right now and upgrade too 2.41.401.4 with RUU.exe but still the same problema can´t upgrade

Lol xD you can't flash this that easy in fastboot not download mode xD you have to either name it to MID number .zip or download it from directly on the phone and let it install . Stock recovery mandatory if you flash this way. There is a way with TWRP, but a lot more to do

i rename the OTA file to 2PS6IMG.ZIP put on SDcard go to download mode and the same 22 RU_HEADER_ERROR

flash TRWP and to a restore from a Untouched System Image + Boot +stock recovery is not the same thing that flash a RUU.EXE?

try the sytem image. worked for me too. sometimes something is broken and with an untouched system image you can install the update again. or just get latest system image and no need of installing the update anymore xD
but let me ask again. your phone is s-off, with locked bootloader right? normally after a RUU you should be able to either install it via downloading directly on the phone and install it there. or you should be also able to flash it like anyone else through either download mode when renamed or even in stock recovery. you can try to boot into stock recovery, apply that zip for installation. maybe that works for you. if you try a full factry reset throught fastboot or stock recovery. I forgot what I exactly did. but one of those steps helped me
answer your question YES i´m S-OFF and LOCKED and STOCK RECOVERY.
"normally after a RUU you should be able to either install it via downloading directly on the phone and install it there. or you should be also able to flash it like anyone else through either download mode when renamed or even in stock recovery"
fully agree with you but i cant i just do it all and nothing work
After Flash RUU.EXE i do a factory reset in stock recovery but didnt help still can download in the phone
"you can try to boot into stock recovery, apply that zip for installation" i did it and the result is "signature verification failed"
just dont do a restore system image in TWRP because i think the result was the same that flash the RUU but maybe it isnt
any one more sugestion that can help?

Find and Download the RUU zip file instead of the .exe. rename the RUU zip to 2PS6IMG.zip, place on ex sdcard, boot to download mode and press uo to flash. The RUU zip has never failed for me as i can take OTA's straight after.

The ruu.exe works for him, afterwords he just can't install the it's because something is triggered.
@ OP did you download the zip, go into data/data/updater.htc-something folder and take the zip. You need either root or custom recovery for that. And try to flash that. If you've done that already. Don't know just get either latest ruu if finally available or take the system image of the latest and restore it. For some it works for some not

Yeah i know but something isnt right as after flashing RUU he still cant update which to me is very strange. What i ment in my post was after flashing an RUU you should be able to take the ota and using the RUU zip has always worked for me to do that
Try go into stock recovery, there shall be an option to sideload OTA file, then use adb sideload OTAfile.zip, this is how I manually apply OTA.
also check the md5 to see if the OTA file is correct.

also try 401.3 ruu to see if that help

Remake the zip to 2PS6IMG.zip and copy of te the sdcard, boot to download mode and it wil be recognized. Flash it......
Stop making it very difficult with fastboot commands, not needed at all. And stop texting all RUU files, totally a waste of time. You need the RUU with the NUMBER that is WRITTEN next to OS in the DOWNLOAD mode. Stop doing all sorts of stuff that is totally irrelevant. If the RUU.zip from here doesn't work you do something wrong.
If your OS line is 2.41.401.x you download that RUU and do as i wrote in the first lines of this post.
You try all different sorts of RUU's so that indicates to me that you didn't bother to check out your download mode
Generally i get what i want.
Sorry for shi* post, but sometimes i just dont get it.
I know that the stock roms have a os versions and phone only accept only specific one.
But sometimes like today my sdcard just trick me so hard ;d and i just trying a different method like fastboot oem rebootRUU + fastboot flash zip zipname.zip, thats all.
Thanks for your time @Mr Hofs and @santod040 (Your rom on M7 GPE
