I am trying to revert my M9 as much as possible to stock. I am really annoyed by the red warning on start up.
Currently it is 2.9.841.2
Is there any way to figure out which RUU i can flash on the device? I am currently downloading 0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_L50_SENSE70_Telstra_WWE_1.32.841.7_R_Radio_01.01_U11440261_56.01.50303G_3_F_release_425231_signed but was hoping to find something without Telstra branding.
TIA

Come on guy, maybe these 75 persons had no answer, not enough time to type a text or any other reason why he or she didn't help. This is not a chat where you can expect immediate answers.
But let's get back to the topic: Are you S-ON or S-OFF? (If you don't know you're probably S-ON.) With S-ON it's not possible to downgrade or to flash RUUs with a different SKU (the 841 stands for your Telstra branding). So you won't be able to use the RUU you mentioned in your first post. Either you look for a RUU with firmware version 2.9.841.2 or higher or you pay the 25 USD to get S-OFF via Sunshine. With S-OFF you could flash an unbranded RUU. (Correct me if I'm wrong, but Telstra is an Australian carrier, right? The Australian unbranded SKU would be 710. If you prefer the unbranded World Wide English version you should look for the 401.)

Thank you for the reply. I am in Australia. And i am S-ON unfortunately.
The de-branding is not even the biggest issue but what i really want is to get rid of the warning that it is a developer device on start up. Unfortunately this phone was sold to me the way it is. I have spent the last ween looking for the RUU of same or higher version but wasn't able to find even the one i am on

Well, at the moment I see three options you can choose from:
Get S-OFF via Sunshine and downgrade/debrand your phone. (25 USD)
Use the RUU service on llabtoofer's website. (don't know the price)
Hope that someone who already has an account can get you the 2.9.841.5 RUU from ir-file.
I know someone who might be able to help you with option 3 but I cannot guarantee anything. For example the 2.10.401.1 RUU from ir-file was corrupted/broken and because of that not flashable. In the worst case the 2.9.841.5 RUU might not work, either. (Nonetheless you would still be able to choose option 1 or 2 in that case.)

If nothing goes wrong the 2.9.841.5 RUU should be downloadable in around 4 hours.
Edit: There you go.
Has maybe anyone else downoaded it? When i unpack the file it is just about 32MB of size

Why is everbody trying to unzip RUUs? Only because it's a *.zip file that doesn't mean that you should unzip it. Do you unzip rom archives, too, before you flash them with TWRP? Look at my signature and follow the instructions in the google sheet.
Thank you so much. After i gave up trying to unpack it and looked up how to do it, it worked like a charm.

I tried to flash the latest 2.10.401.1 RUU using an SD card. The flash started and then gave an error message " Failed: -2, 8: fail to flash via downloadzip " The phone is stuck at the htc white startup screen. The phone is S-ON and the bootloader is relocked. I can reboot into download mode. I tried to unlock the bootloader but I get an error. Is there any way out of this?
Thanks

Yes, S-OFF would probably solve your problem since you were able to downgrade your firmware with older RUUs if your phone was S-OFF. Nevertheless you need a working system and root because the only way to achieve S-OFF on the M9 is the sunshine app. Ignore what I wrote in the last sentence. I forgot that you can get S-OFF by using a java card. However I have no expierences with java cards so I can't tell you whether there are conditions that need to be fulfilled if you want to use one.

Thanks again for your reply. Do you know if Sunshine needs an unlocked bootloader and root to work. I don't have either. Java card seems to need me to ship my phone. I'm not in the USA so that will be a problem.

Sunshine needs an unlocked bootloader, root and a booting system on the M9. So it's not an option in your current situation.
You can buy a java card on your own (I know that's a bad suggestion because they're so expensive) or you look for someone who owns one and does not live in the States. Some phone repair shops here in Germany advertise that they do java card service so I highly doubt that they are only available in the US.
Edit: Or as said before, you can use the RUU service I linked in post #4.

Thanks for your patience. Looks like the RUU service you referenced is my best chance to get my phone working. Thanks for the link - I wouldn't have thought of looking for that. I can't find any prices to buy a Java card. I get the impression it would be cheaper to buy a new phone! There are lots of posts about sending your phone off to somebody that already has a Java card. They all seem to be in the States. I've learnt an expensive lesson - make sure that the RUU you're going to flash is good before you flash it! Or stick with OTAs!
Many thanks for your help.

The 2.10.401.1 RUU does exist. Unfortunately it seems that the file I downloaded was partially corrupted.
Hello everyone, I I just got an M9 at my local Telus store and I would like to be able to do everything with it like I am able to do with my M7, so I know I will need to use sunshine to get S-OFF and I would also like to be able to change everything from the rom to the kernel to the OS, everything, so I was just wondering if someone could let me know the best order to go about doing things, meaning should I do sunshine first then worry about flashing a recovery and all that, or should I do the recovery first so that I can backup the phones current state? The phone currently says this in the hboot screen:
*** LOCKED ***
LK-1.0.0.0000
OS-1.32.661.6
and this is what it says on the phones Setting-About-Software screen:
Android version
5.0.2
HTC Sense version
7.0
Like I mentioned before, it would probably be best if I can make a backup of the phones current state just in case there are any issues, so to do that I know I need a recovery, but do I need to do the HTC Dev unlocker before I can do so? or do I have to flash a recovery first before everything else?
Now, before anyone gets upset with me for asking these questions because they have most likely been asked 1000 times before, I am not asking to be spoon feed all the details step by step, I am just asking to be pointed in the right direction and asking for you guy's opinions on the best way to go about doing things so that I do them right the first time... So if anyone could please take a minute to help me out and get me pointed in the right direction then it would be greatly appreciated... thank you very much...

First thing you should do is unlock your bootloader. After that you can install twrp and flash supersu (most can be found here) Once you are rooted run sunshine. After that the sky is the limit. You will be free to flash anything and everything. I know because I've done it. If you want to convert to a developers edition there is a post here. Personally I do not use my stock recovery or system image backups to download ota's. I prefer to run an RUU and do fresh installs. Reason why is because I am constantly changing firmware and roms. A lot of roms are based on the WWE firmware.
let me know if you have any more questions

Thank you very much for the tips.. Do I use the HTC Dev website to unlock the bootloader? I seen a link in the dev thread that said Unlock bootloader without HTCDev(root required), but I bet that the HTCDev way is probably the best best. which did you use? I'm not at home right now so I will begin when I get home later on tonight and if I need anything else I will post back, plus I post back to say how everything goes..

I've used htcdev for all 2 out o 3 of my m9's. third one is a developer edition so it wasn't needed.
just note download mode is fastboot mode on the m9. htcdev says to boot to fastboot mode and if you do not know than you can waste hours trying to figure it out.

Ok so I got the bootloader unlocked and TWRP installed, right now I am taking a backup of the phones current state just in case. Now I just need to flash the SuperSU beta from the link you provided and then run sunshine, after that I would like to flash the latest OS for my phone, but I am not sure which version to use, I think this one is correct http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/development/firmware-red-t3097678 but I am not 100% sure, do you know if this is the correct latest version for my phone?
Also should I supercid my phone before updating the firmware by entering "fastboot oem writecid 11111111" while in download mode? because my cid is TELUS001 and I do not see that cid listed in the androidinfo.txt file that is in the firmware zip...
Thanks again for all your help...
**UPDATE** I now have S-OFF, I can't believe how smooth the whole process is now with sunshine compared to almost all of my other HTC phones, hats off to those guys for sure... Thank you very much for getting me this far!!! I appreciate it very much...

I was actually just going to tell you to type
Code:
fastboot getvar all
while in download mode and to copy and paste that into a file a text file somewhere so you always have it. then you can supercid. I actually have never seen any firmware for your carrier. what is your mid? this is where I get all of my firmware from. I learned how to remove the red text using hex editor and I also throw in a custom splash screen before I flash.
Here is a link for your stock firmware. not sure what the most up to date is but most custom roms are using the WWE firmware anyways.
p.s. either quote me or tag me if you need a faster response. I'm not getting notifications otherwise.

If going to dev ed I have had better luck running an RUU and accepting ota's as far as the radio goes. my reception went from 2 bars to full bars doing it that way verses just flashing the newest firmware. But it is a very long and tedious process and since you just got your m9 I'm sure you want to use it already..
What rom are you thinking about flashing?

do you know where I can find the latest international RUU? what rom are you running now?
@bigp951
Ok so I got the firmware updated to the latest international version 2.10 and was able to flash the ViperOne Rom and I love it just like I did for my M7... Everything is working great, except I have the problem that you mentioned would happen, I only show 1 bar for my signal strength, could you please let me know exactly what you had to do to fix it? Also, I would just like to say thank you once more, you helped me out a great deal and you made my upgrade to the M9 an absolute cake walk, so thank you very much for everything and for explaining the proper steps to take, I appreciate it very much...
I currently soft bricked my phone after trying to restore my phone back to complete stock ROM to the point the OS wont boot up, instead the red triangle comes up, I'm looking for the RRU for Vodafone as because I'm currently S-On which means I can't upgrade or downgrade my firmware. I have the stock recovery image but can't find the RRU after much looking around the forums and googling I unfortunately found dead links. I need a little help
I'm sorry I'm a little new to rooting, but i will answer questions however I can
Regards!
You can find the 1.32.161.15 RUU for your M9 on androidruu. Just search the M9 library and update afterwards.

Thanks for the fast reply, I found the same RRU updating utility in a forums here too, but I get the error 115 when trying to update which is odd even after relocking the bootloader. This is why I need one for the version I'm running as I think the reason me being stuck now on S-On is causing issues.
Still really needing that RRU, I have an expensive paperweight here and no phone so some help would really be appreciated

I relocked my bootloater + updating the firmwarepart to 2.10.161.7.
So I can not use it anymore.
Sunshine isn't an option, because no system is up and running. XTC2Clip is too expensive to get the HTC in S-OFF Mode. There isn't an other method at this time, right?
I can only send it to the RUU Service, but I am from Germany.
Maybe here is someone near Düsseldorf who can S-OFF my device with his XTC2Clip?
Thanks

Someone already tried it? Don't want to spend money for a file, which won't help me out.

Unless your phone is S-OFF you can't use that RUU. It's a "combined" one which means it's custom made and not signed by HTC. S-ON phones only accept files which are signed by HTC. Btw.: That's the reason why you need S-OFF for Sneakyghost's firmware packs, too.

If you're on Lollipop, you can use sunshine to unlock and flash away. If on MM, you have to downgrade to LP, and then use sunshine to unlock (this is a cost of 25 USD). There is a thread for the downgrade here in the Verizon forum. As for a rom, I highly recommend LeeDroid, as he makes roms for all M9s, and he is based out of the UK. For that, just go to the HTC One M9 main forum, not the Verizon forum. I'm currently running it and it is fantastic.
Edit: Sorry, totally somehow thought you were locked. Anyway, just make sure you have the latest TWRP and flash any rom you want, but you'll find more activity here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9
Roms based on stock (I recommend for stability, signal, and camera) are under "One (M9) Android Development."
Hi,
Thank you for your help .. i'm quite a beginner with this kinda thing.. firstly, the phone already came with TWRP 3.0.0-1 installed, do i need to upgrade that? and which firmware would i use please? i did find a list but forgot to bookmark it.
Thanks again

Here's the link for the rom which has instructions for for installation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/development/rom-leedroid-one-m9-v7-0-0-rc1-march-t3068468
I can't remember off the top of my head if your recovery is new enough (I believe it is), but here is the thread for TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/orig-development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3066720
If you don't feel comfortable rebooting your phone into different modes and doing some command prompt codes, I'm not sure I'd recommend doing any of this though. Make sure you do your research and read, read, read. Maybe even search YouTube for examples of people flashing TWRP and such.
thank you sending the phone back, will buy a uk version
Hi guys,
I hope you can help me solve my issue. I spend the entire evening try to do it, reading through the post on this forum but I couldn't figure out a solution.
So basically I bought an HTC 10 unlocked in Ireland, and I currently have Android 7 , no mods or anything on it.
I know there was an OTA update available, but every time I check for software updates I get the error Can't update software. There was an unexpected error and the file system may be corrupted.
I tried then to do a manual update. I download the file (ruu I think) from HTC website and I rebooted the device in download mode and tryed to install. I got error 130
to perform a manual update via PC but it didn't work, I received a model ID error (Model ID error)
I did a factory reset and tried OTA again with no luck.
I am looking for some pratical advice, Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Vincent

Hi Mr Hofs ,
OS-2.41.771.3
I should find an RUU with the same line and try the procedure again?
Yes one with the same line or a higher one, or a matching stock backup.
When you succeed to upgrade and tinker again with the device it's wise to create a pure stock backup for the future.

As been explained you need one with your OS number. Not some random firmware. 2.48.841 doesn't come near 2.41.771 .......
also a full ruu is at least 1.8 gig
Edit :
Especially the. 771 part has to match. The first 2.41 should match or be higher.

I thought it was 2.48 hence higher, didn't see the 1
The closer I could find online is 2.41.041.4 which is lower than the one that I have so I guess is not good.
Is there other way to do it ? a work around?
My phone is running at the moment I don't know why some files got corrupted.

DELETE your imei and SN ASAP. that's never ment to be on an online platform!
Second option is to pay for S-OFF via sunshine and convert the device to wwe which has all RUU files available.
And as i explained allready and will do that again, your 771 part has to MATCH so it can't be 041 or 401 or 841 it MUST be. 771. So either 2.41.771 or 3.16.771 or 3.18.771 (as examples)

Thanks for your clarifications, Mr Hofs.
Yesterday evening I was able to find and buy this firmware 2PS6IMG_PERFUME_UHL_O80_SENSE90GP_MR_H3G_UK_3.18.771.1[email protected]_84.09_F_release_519646_signed.zip
that according to your explanation should be a good fit.
I downloaded the file on my pc and then I followed a guide to try and install it using "adb and fastboot" but when I gave the comand to run it and I received an error that the file was too big and the adb crashed as well, so I wasn't able to try to install it on the phone. I saw there are many different guides online. Do you know if there s a good one that works ?

Yep should be great. You have to rename the ruu.zip to 2PS6IMG.zip only and copy it to your SDcard. Boot to download mode and follow the flash instructions. The file will be auto detected. Be aware that this will wipe the ENTIRE phone.
Edit :
You said "buy" ? Now i am wondering where you bought it and how much you payed for it ?

yes, I bought it for 3$ on firmware.gem-flash.com They have plenty of firmware there was also the 2.41.771.3 version.
I thought better pay 3$ than 25$ to buy the license for sunshine.
..Let`s see if it works now, finger crossed

Dude - stop wasting your money on that website. All the files are available here @ XDA (nearly all!) for free via links already posted or by asking.
The RU_FAILED is because the file you got doesnt match the CID of your phone. The CID is basically the Network Lock on the phone - dont get confused with Sim Lock.
Go on Google Playstore and install; Simple CID Getter. Let us know here what it says. e.g; HTC_001 (Mines H3G_001 which is 3 UK Network)
Then we can get you further along.....

So thats your pain in the arse (3 network! Me too - UK!)
Currently there does NOT seem to be any RUU for our networks.
Only way forward for both of us it would seem is to S-Off via Sunshine.
If you have already - then sweet, you can change your CID to 11111111 which will mean you can flash that zip you got and it will work.
Search or ask here on XDA about changiing CID to 11111111. Plenty have done before, so shouldnt be too hard for you.
I havent done it since HTC M7 so I cant remember, need to look it up myself.
Hope that helps!

ahahah good to know!
So I understand what you say.. but what if I pay 3$ and download the exact firmware that I have at the moment 2PS6IMG_PERFUME_UHL_N70_SENSE80GP_MR_H3G_UK_2.41.771.31_[email protected]_79.07_F_release_509479_combined_signed.zip
After that (once the file system is no longer corrupted) I could try to do an OTA update
It would be too easy so maybe the problem is that I can`t be sure that firmware is for 3 network right?

Thats actually prob the 1 I need (if you have the file name BTW - search it in Google, for sure you might get lucky on a Download and NOT have to pay, might even find it on here XDA, theres a very good chance of that.)
For you however the need the file thats says H3G_ROI cos your CID is that. H3G__003 = H3G_ROI (Republic Of Ireland).
Mine is H3G__001 = H3G_UK. Soz bud dont think will work. You try, it will only fail or do it. It wont bust it if it does do it. S-OFF is calling you doh.... $25 about 18 pound UK.
---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:18 PM ----------
So if you do S-OFF and wanna go full OREO and have go Super CID 1111111.. whatever it is, then heres a link for WWE (Europe) RUU OREO zip for you HERE.
Rename it as you did before to 2PS6IMG etc - you've done it before lols. Best of luck
If the version number matches it's great to use. There is no RUU with 3.18.771 created for 2 different CID sets specifically. So that's not the problem. Either take the 2.41.771 (full ruu). Not only the firmware because if your OS is screwed you will be in the same boat again I remember they pulled the US ruu and they had to update the standalone firmware prior to using to the full ruu. You could check out to take the firmware from the ruu and flash it prior to the ruu.
That's done via download mode, htc ruu mode and Fastboot commands

If you look at your and his original OS/firmware number the RUU should work. It's definitely not CID related at this point. They don't create 2 ruu files with the same firmware number for 2 or even more CID numbers, if you check a ruu and open the host file you will see more than 1 CID in there.
He has a matching ruu but i think it has the same issue as the US version has.
He took his OS line from the download mode, that number can't change without s-off so that's the thing you'd have to look at. It's not suddenly changing because of the CID.
Also if he had to look at h3g ROI his version number would have been different, in that case it should be 2.41.773 and not 771....... there is no H3G ROI for the HTC 10, it's integrated in the UK version range.
And also i googled some on this ruu, not easy to track or dead links or spam. So i can understand his call to buy it for 3.
If he wants to pay another 3 for the 2.41.771 than its his call. It's a big difference to 25. I can't look inside his wallet. However i share your feeling that sunshine would a more valuable investment.
Fair point Mr Hofs, I dont know enough really to be able to help fully. I need the same help to update my phone. I looked at the same place these RUU are available for $3 and they have alot more than has been listed (example; OREO update for 3 UK). I am considering downloading myself (and sharing for all!). I want to make sure I get the correct version - but I'm having trouble finding my version numbers so I get the right one. I've perhaps made it harder but using the Venom custom Rom. I've looked in about but cant find anything that makes sense. Can you advise where I can find the version numbers? Cheers

Man if your OS number is the same as mine I can share with you the file I downloaded and see if it can be useful for you at least.
I think I am gonna try to download the same version that I have at the moment as It seems an easier way than use sunshine to S-OFF and go down that way.
I ll keep you posted. Cheers
