HTC one m9 firnware upgrade issues - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was trying to upgrade my firmware according to the main thread
everything looked ok but i noticed that it was very fast
after it completed i flashed the new recovery
tried to install the new viper rom but got into bootloader every time i rebooted the phone
i managed to restore previous rom from backup but i cant install new roms
anybody know how can i fix this?
thanks in advance

Try flashing firmware again. It probably failed with error 90, which just means you have to immediately flash again. If that doesn't work, post your terminal output from when you flash so we can see what error you're getting. Booting straight to bootloader screen indicates you're trying to use a marshmallow rom on lollipop firmware

Weird n7100 bootloop

Hi i was helping my friend to update his firmware. after doing so the phone is now stuck in a weird bootloop. i had seen my fair share of bootloops but this seems weirder than others. the n7100 logo would loop very quickly (sorta like flash) and keeps doing so. can't enter recovery mode at all, only download mode. plug it to odin and whatever i can throw at it i just got nand write start fail, be it twrp, multiple versions of stock rom. im at the end of my wits, so what should i try next? thank you for any input
What is the Odin error when trying to flash the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com? Tried different USB cables and USB ports?
I kinda have/had the same problem.
N7100 logo would bootloop quiet fast (doesn't get to the point where it should load the rom).
Can't enter recovery bc of that.
Only thing that works is download mode.
After trying to flash newest stock rom (4.4.2) it failed once (I think my cable gets too old...)
Next try it worked without a problem.
Problem persists.
Next step was flashing an older repair firmware (4.1.2) but it failed (I think bc of the 4.4.2 bootloader? IDK)
Then I tried to flash the newest stock again but with the pit file. Flashed without a problem but the problem was still there.
Last step I made was to flash the newest stock with the pit file and nand erase + update bootloader.
Tried it 2 times but it failed.
Now I'm stuck on the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
Download mode got a red message also: "RPMB: INVALID RPMB DATA"
I don't know what to do now. Please help.
PS: It was a "new" motherboard from aliexpess, it had a chinese version of the stock 4.1.2 if I remember right and was already rooted when I installed it. I wanted to flash the newest 4.4.2 for the new modem and stuff and then upgrade to lineage. :/

M9 in bootloop, TWRP stopped working

Hello all, my M9 has been crazy since some days. I have a lot of different problems and haven't been able to see what the common issue is, so I will list everything I know:
1. European M9 unlocked, baseband 01.01_U11440792_97.00.51203G_F, OS-3.35.401.32
2. Had official Android 6.0 and couldn't update OTA to Nougat (update crashing after 25%) so I tried rooting and flashing a custom ROM (RR-N-v5.8.0-20170106-himaul-Unofficial). Worked without problems for 3 months and 2 days ago my phone restarted and didn't boot to the rom anymore (I see the HTC logo with white background and red letters, after 10 seconds or so I see the logo of my rom but it freezes and restarts again, over and over again).
3. Tried flashing the same version stock rom with RUU method (renaming it to 0PJAIMG.zip and place it in sd card) and this failed because of a problem with the zip signature.
4. Tried another custom rom (ViperOneM9_6.1.0) and the same situation (I see the rom logo but freezes and restarts again)
5. After flashing the 2nd rom, my TWRP stopped working (I see the logo of TWRP and freezes, restart)
6. I tried using fastboot commands to boot to recovery and nothing happens, tried flashing different TWRP versions and still freezes.
So at the moment the working modes are only download and bootloader.
Any ideas of where the problem is?
I'm pretty used to flashing custom roms but never had such problems before, so my knowledge doesn't go that far. Also if you need logs, please give me some instructions on how to get them. Thanks

Mediapad M2 10 A01w

Hi there, I have the above device with unlocked bootloader. It was rooted but I had a problem where the tablet kept rebooting but only after it loaded Android. No amount of following guides fixed it and Recovery and Fastboot were throwing g up problems whenever I tried to flash anything.
Eventually, I managed somehow to switch it on to Chinese update cycle I think and update the ROM with the latest official Chinese EMUI through multiple reboot loops (it downloaded about 10% of the update each time before crashing and getting the next chunk of download next time).
So I'm currently on the latest Chinese ROM running android 5.1.1 and it started working again. However the ROM came without gapps included so I flashed TWRP and installed gapps and I'm back to the reboot cycle. It lasted a long time before restarting again though so I'm guessing it's to do with gapps trying to update.
So I'm back to square one again. Any ideas? Is there any kind of log I can provide to help diagnose? I still have TWRP and have access to that without the bootloop starting again..
How did you rooted it?

Android A1(AQ4501) Dead :(

I own a canvas A1 4GB variant, I had rooted my phone and flashed custom recovery(everything was finee), After a while my phone's battery started giving me problems(lasted only few hours), I considered flashing Stock ROM or any other trusted ROM, I had flashed RR M[07/07] based on android MM, The battery was still giving problem, A week later, My mom's phone broke and she had to use this(A1) temporarily, I formatted everything and thought of flashing stock ROM and handing over the phone to her, I tried flashing the official zip via TWRP, It gave me some error regarding unable to mount system, System partions or something(I don't remember). And after that, I could't flash any ROM, I tweaked some settings in TWRP and now my phone is totally dead, It does not boot up at all, No recovery mode turns on, Nothing except a black dead screen, I tried flashing stock firmware via SP flash tool, It completes and says successful but still nothing happens, Just wanna know if something can happen to this one? I really loved that device and would be great to have it back working.

Cant go back to stock rom.

So I flashed a firmware update from this post, since I wasn't able to go back to stock after flashing a custom rom. "Fastboot flashing and firmware". I flashed the firmware zip via fastboot, then I ran the RUU.exe and it said the installation was completed. However, upon the first boot, my devices get stuck into the " HTC powered by Android" screen and stays there for a long time and nothing happens. I have left it for hours to see if it finally boots up but nothing happens.
My devices model is 2SP6500 US unlocked version.
It is worth mentioning that my device was originally tmobile version but after a few tweaks I convert it to the us unlock version. At first, everything worked perfect. But when I was running the US unlocked version I decided to try a custom ROM . But then I decided to go back to stock so I re-flashed the RUU.exe and that's where the problem begun. For some f#$ing reason i cant got back to stock
It is also worth mentioning that I'm able to use Resurrection Remix and LineageOS, everything boots up and all, but for some fu#ing reason, I can't go back to stock.
Now I have a very expensive paperweight.:crying::crying:

Download the ruu zip for your variant and run it from your SD card. No reason why you can't go back to stock
