HTC One M9 No TWRP, No OS, No Recovery Mode - One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I really need your help!
Just got this HTC One M9 that was previously rooted with the "Viper" ROM. As the person gave it to me he wiped it clean leaving only "TWRP" on there. Anyways somewhere along the line I accidentally wipe the whole phone clean and now there is no TWRP... Selecting recovery mode comes up with "Failed to boot to recovery mode". And now my computer won't even recognize it as a device. :crying: Guess I got what I paid for, $200.
Can someone please help urgently? Btw, I'm from Australia.
Cheers.

Did you try to turn it off, hold Vol- when powering up and see if it'll boot to download mode? If this works you can easily flash TWRP again to start flashing a custom ROM from scratch, or instead flash an appropriate RUU to return to full stock - if available for you combination of CID/MID.
For further help, if you can get to download mode a fastboot getvar all output would be if help to further assist you. Post it - if possible - without IMEI and Serial No.

I'd advice to download the RUU belonging to your above named main version number, rename it to 0PJAIMG.zip, place it on an external (FAT32 if less than 32GB, extFAT if lager) formatted extSD.
Insert this SD into your phone and boot to download. You should then see a yellow text on the bottom stating what to do to start flashing the RUU and follow it to proceed.
This will get you back to full stock, to be able to start from scratch with whatever you'll do next.

HTC ONE M9 only boots into bootloader

While using whatsapp my phone froze, so I forced restarted it. Then it said configuring apps then froze again. After that it rebooted into bootloader. I can go into recovery mode and download mode also, no further. It was stock but in bootlodaer it says modified. It is locked with S-ON. I really need help. I've tried factory resting it, I cant install anything cause of the locked bootloder and S-ON.

Please don't ask for help for one and the same problem in more than one thread. It's harder to help if there are two places where possible solutions get posted. Not everyone is reading every thread and therefore some solutions might get recommended more than once.
Edit: And here's a link to the other thread where this topic gets discussed.

Htc One M9 with relocked bootloader and S-ON

Hi.
Can I fix this phone with bootloader relocked and S-On? Phone is in a bootloop state and will only enter in download mode. Here's some info from the command "fastboot getvar all"
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_himauhl
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) imei: 357226065********
(bootloader) version-main: 3.35.401.12
(bootloader) boot-mode: download
(bootloader) version-baseband: 01.01_U11440792_97.00.51203G_F
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
(bootloader) mid: 0PJA10000
(bootloader) cid: HTC__031
I've tried to flash with sdcard this updated rom but ends with ruzip flash error 12.
0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_N70_SENSE80_MR_HTC_Europe_4.28.401.3_Radio_01.01_U114401011_117.00.61117G_2_F_release_498151_signed_2
The error is 12 - the readme thread says the following:
12 SIGNATURE FAIL: The phone expects an HTC signature and can't find one or found a wrong one. This error occurs if you try to flash a RUU that uses a different encryption key than the one your phone is using (e.g. firmware 3.x and older vs. 4.x).

I think there was something about encryption keys being changed from 3 to 4 firmware. Please try flashing the 3.35.401.12 RUU from the readme thread, not 4.28.401.13

HTC 10 - Rom Recovery

Hi Guys,
I've been trying to help a mate who's gotten himself into trouble with his HTC 10. Now i'm certainly no expert either, but figured that by doing some homework and asking in the right places (here!) we should hopefully be able to get out of trouble.
Full disclaimer - I have no idea what he did to the phone before i got it. I'd assume it was rooted and then he's tried to return it to factory.
The phone will not boot, and currently only has access to the bootloader/download mode. The bootloader is locked and S-ON is enabled.
Now here's where i think it get's tricky. I can't seem to find an RUU for the Telstra ROM it's running (841), and i can't enable debug mode to unlock the bootloader to flash any of the SneakyGhost .zip ROM's that I've found. It would appear we're stuck?
Here's the dump of the getvar all:
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_pmeuhl
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) max-download-size: 1578400000
(bootloader) serialno: FA65T********
(bootloader) slot-count: 0
(bootloader) current-slot:
(bootloader) imei: 3575100********
(bootloader) version-main: 3.18.841.1
(bootloader) boot-mode: download
(bootloader) version-baseband: [email protected]
(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
(bootloader) mid: 2PS620000
(bootloader) cid: TELST001
Is there any way to get around this? Could I change the cid to a north american one and flash a stock HTC RUU?
Any help or guidance on where to go from here would be great.
Cheers.

First of all sneakyghost doesn't have any ROMS online, only firmware. Firmwares and ROMS are 2 very DIFFERENT things. Firmware is only the bootloader, recovery and such and a rom is the running OS on the phone, so please do not mix those up.
Second if you can't find any ruu with that number, any firmware with that number, any stock backup with that number and the phone isnt running any software it will indeed be a challenge.
S-off is a way (and also 100% needed) to change the cid and change region. Otherwise you will be stuck with telstra.
I will have a quick peek around to see if there is any software out there.
Edit :
Okay i found a RUU but it's a payed website, i know it's legit as i have seen users here used it and succeeded.
https://firmware.gem-flash.com/index.php?a=browse&b=file-info&id=48060
That file is what you need to get the device up and running in 1 sitting.
Thanks for the response. Clears a few things up for me. If I was to pay tglo get that file, could you outline the steps I should follow?

Rename the file to :
2PS6IMG.zip
Place the file on the SD card and enter download mode, follow instructions to flash.

Awesome! Worked a charm! Thanks again for all your help.

stuck at htc one logo, recovery mode failed

Hello,
My 3 years old htc one m9 is getting me headache the past months.
I am thinking this more of a hardware problem (dead nand probably) than software but lets see.
Phone statrs pretty hard, it needs 20-30 restarts or so. I am not able to hard reset it from the settings nor through recovery mode.. (recovery mode failed). Now the phone won't start even after 50 restarts. Sometimes it starts but the screen is black.. i can only power off/reboot/airplane mode (the animation after pressing power button is ok thoug)
Software status - Modified
LOCKED
S-ON
I haven't rooted my phone or etc... just stock (only official OTA updates)
htc download mode:
LOCKED
htc_himauhl PVT S-ON
LK-1.0.0.0000
RADIO-01.01_U1144011_117.00.61117G_2

OS-4.14.401.7
Nov 26 2016,00:36:11 (836547)
Can I fix it somehow or I should consider buying a new one?
If it can get to download mode just flash the stock firmware via external SD card. If that fails then its cabbaged.
How can I do that and how big sd card do I need?
And from where should I download the stock firmware, also how can I see the correct version for my phone?

Telstra HTC 10 RUU

Hi guys,
I got a HTC 10 for free because it's currently soft bricked (I can access download, RUU, bootloader, recovery but will not be able to flash or boot unsigned.)
TWRP is somehow installed, however it is S-ON and **Relocked** - System Status Modified
I am looking for RUU for Telstra_WWE_2.48.841.31 or later,
I find it unreasonable to pay for it though, as gem-flash is offering.
fastboot getvar all:
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_pmeuhl
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) imei: **************
(bootloader) version-main: 1.95.841.3
(bootloader) boot-mode: RUU

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
(bootloader) mid: 2PS620000
(bootloader) cid: TELST001
finished. total time: 0.014s
Any luck?

I managed to fix mine, but unfortunately I've since reinstalled windows and lost the rom. Sorry, but you should be able to find one online for free that works
