[Q] RUU problem

Hey! I screwed up my root on my One X and now I am trying to apply an RUU update.
I downloaded the latest one I could find on androidruu.com
When it was about halfway done it aborted automatically and I got this message:
ERROR [158]: IMAGE ERROR
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
My current version is 4.18.771.4 and it wanted to update/downgrade to 3.14.401.31 which is nowhere near my current version so the RUU must be wrong?
It said it was released 2013-01-30 15:48:53 and that's the latest one on that website, maybe there are other websites with more recent RUUs?
Here is also my "getvar" info

You are S-ON you can't downgread from 4.18 to 3.14 you can use only nandroid backup to restore stock rom or flash custom

The problem is that I can not boot into OS.
I am stuck on the Cyanogenmod boot logo.
I don't know what went wrong, I unlocked the device and flashed with TWRP.
Then I got the problem where the touch did not work so I had to flash an older version of TWRP which fixed that.
Then I flashed my Cyanogenmod ROM and wiped both the dalvik and regular cache.
When I tried to boot it just stuck on the boot logo.
I tried to wipe the data but I managed to somehow mix up two different wipe options and obviously I wiped both the backup and everything on my sdcard. I'm screwed...
I used the adb tool to push over Cyanogenmod to TWRP and flashed the ROM ones again to see if that might fix the problem.
I still couldn't boot into OS and so I tried to follow Cyanogenmod's guide on how to root One X.
I flashed the recovery with Clockwork recovery and everything went fine until I try to flash a ROM from Clockwork recovery... I can't mount my sdcard?!?!
I tried to flash back to TWRP but when I try to boot into recovery from bootloader it just reboots back into HBOOT...
So now here I sit and think how much life sucks.

I never see you mentioning flashing the boot.img from CM ?
But if you start to flash this recovery
https://www.dropbox.com/s/yqzlpqo8illa53j/Philz recovery 5.15.9.img
It has touch and you can also mount the sdcard

Okay so I managed to flash PhilZ Touch 5, now you say I should flash boot.img, is that the file inside the cyanogenmod zip or is it a separate download?

I got everything to work, I flashed the boot.img and I am now a happy owner of a rooted One X
Thanks for your help! Cred to Mr Hofs!

Nice !

[Q] Recovery not booting, Vodafone DE branded m9

Greetings,
I just got a new Vodafone HTC One m9 today and directly started with unlocking and rooting.
It was shipped the 24th April, if this should help.
The problem is: I unlocked with htcdev.com, flashed TWRP 2.8.6.4 latest beta and rebooted into recovery. The HTC logo is showing up with the red text, after 10 seconds the screen goes dark, it vibrates and is starting up normaly to android.
I flashed the recovery multiple, even the original recovery i got with searching for the version-main.
fastboot getvar all:
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_himauhl
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) imei: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
(bootloader) version-main: 1.32.161.15
(bootloader) boot-mode: download
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
(bootloader) mid: 0PJA10000
(bootloader) cid: VODAP102
The android version is 5.0.2 (i think there was a OTA update i have not minded), kernel is 3.10.49-g284dcf7
Anyone got a idea what could be the problem? I wasted 2 hours searching a solution on all forums, tried multiple TWRP versions, there is no way to get to the recovery menu.
Ah and yes, i did erase cache before flashing

fastboot reboot recovery, maybe. or adb reboot download, then select recovery

Tried both, got no success..
TWRP says on some devices the recovery menu gets replaced when you are not hitting the right key combo, but why am i the only one having problems and every guide with high ratings just says:
1. unlock with htcdev
2. flash recovery
3. install root.zip
4. 1337
?

so, its solved.
It seems, like there is problems with fastload and Windows 8.1 64 bit.
Using my old laptop with 32bit Windows 7 everything worked just as it should.
If there is anyone having such problems try another host for pushing files..

Is it possible to go back to stock without S-Off?

I unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP and then installed a rooted version of stock OS. Can I go back to completely stock without S-Off, or is it absolutely required that I pay the $25 to go back to stock?

Looking for the same option
Wish I had a solution for you, but I don't see one. Looks like we're stuck with either an S-On or a $25 charge

I've tried to look for an answer as well. The latest RUU from my carrier is only 1.32, and in the event that I need to service my phone, I'm not sure if stock system + TWRP is good enough for 'stock'.
My phone scared me today because random white, vertical lines appeared on the screen, but they didn't show up when I rebooted into the power + vol. down menu. They slowly disappeared, but it was definitely worrying. I'm afraid the display will go bad soon.

This is the best option I've found so far. Going to give it a try tomorrow, unless anyone has suggestions.

Unfortunately I'm not having a lot of luck. Using the files on that site, and also tried the "1.32.531.33 SystemDump" from XDA, but in both cases as soon as it starts up it says "EasyShare stopped responding" and "System UI stopped responding" before even doing the setup wizard. Tried wiping the cache, and redownloading the files but still the same errors every time. Not sure what I'm missing...

Okay, I finally got it back to stock using these instructions and the "fastboot/sd card" RUU zips from here. Everything appears to be working, and back at stock without needing S-OFF!

All that you needed was an unlocked bootloader to load a Stock RUU.

The thread is very old, but I can help you.
First we need to know more about your device, so boot in download mode and do "fastboot getvar all" then post the result here(remove imei,sn)
For this you need adb and fastboot, if you don't have I recommend you Minimal ADB & Fastboot, and make sure you have htc drivers installed.

You can't just flash nougat if you're s-on, you need to flash a ruu that match to your current firmware version, then you can update via ota to the latest nougat.

How to flash ROM to my HK M9?

I went thru a few threads but couldn't find any direct tutorial to flash my m9. I downloaded ota, but i cant s-off my unit(sunshine doesn't work), thus i cant flash it. maybe its running new OS?
I wanted to flash any rom to my m9, either stock or wwe or cyanogenmod, but all seems to require s-off.
my play store is missing & even though i did a master reset(tried from normal menu n also bootloader mode), playstore just wont appear.
here are my details :
Non-rooted
S-ON
LK-1.0.0.0000
firmware 3.42.708.3
fastboot result :
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_himauhl
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) imei: Mod Edit: Removed

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
(bootloader) mid: 0PJA10000
(bootloader) cid: HTC__044
I went thru about 5 threads but cant find a direct solution, I hope I'm not asking something that is widely posted here, seems i just can't S-off. Any helps to flash roms in my situation?

Anyone care to help out?

There is no other publicly available RUU for your SKU than a 1.32.708.15 one which you can't use due to downgrades not being possible without S-OFF.

dear flippy, can i install custom rom while its S-ON? I know how 2 do it on prev HTCs(unlock bootloader, flash recovery, flash rom, flash boot.img), but no sure if m9 is applicable..

Yes, you can. However you need to re-flash the stock boot.img of your phone afterwards or you'll loose your mobile reception (this only applies to sense-based roms). If you want to use a non-sense-based rom like cm you need to flash thicklizard's mono kernel instead of the stock boot image.

Help, my Htc one m9 is bricked from relocking the bootloader.

Hi, I am new on this forum.
I have a problem with my M9. About a year ago, I installed TWRP recovery and rooted android 6.0. Since then I hadn't made any changes to my phone. Once android nougat came out, i couldn't update it with ota update so i decided to return to stock recovery. I flashed the recovery and everything worked fine. I decided to update it with a RUU as the safest bet, and i read somewhere that you need to relock the bootloader. I relocked it and everything seemed fine, it was relocked in bootloader mode but now I can't boot to recovery mode and cannot boot the phone. I can access download mode and bootloader mode. I also can't update it with the ruu because I get signature error 132. I also can't unlock the bootloader, everything goes fine and at the end it still says "relocked". My cid is htc_032 european. What should I do now?

You shouldn't have relocked it... As far as I know, relocking the m9 is not required... Try searching for solutions or wait for someone with more knowledge regarding your situation...

Thanks for the tip about IMEI.
I tried the developer ruu version from the HTC website but i saw that it isn't compatible. I can't find a ruu for my phone that is compatible. I only found zips, but i have no clue how to use them. I know how to flash them, but my bootloader won't unlock. Do you have any idea how to proceed?
