Hi folks,
My phone details are as below -
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0027
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.14.04.28_M
eMMC-boot
Sep 7 2011, 19:06:24
Phone Current Possible specs -
Android Version - 2.3.5
HTC sense version - 3.0
software number - 3.13.720.2
Kernel version - 2.6.35.10-g931a37e - (Not sure about this one)
baseband version - 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M
Build number - 3.13.720.2 CL208029 - (Not sure about this one)
Here is the situation -
My Non-Rooted HTC DHD somhow got stuck yesterday morning, after i woke up. No idea why it happened and everything. I tried pulling out battery and restarting, also tried recovery but not help - it was stuck on 'HTC - quitely brilliant' splash screen.
So I went ahead and tried to factory-reset it from Vol-Down + Power button. The process rather ended quickly than anticipated (I have done this earlier once so know that it cant be so fast). Post this, after every reboot now, the phone takes very long on splash screen, and eventually goes up to HTC wallpaper (the colorful one) but no controls are loaded and nothing happens (not even any error message). it cant be shut down unless i pull out the battery.
So after this has happened, i also tried to see what happens in HBOOT -> FastBoot -> BootLoader and it showed me this error -
SD Checking ...
Loading ... [PD98DIAG.ZIP]
No Image!
So assuming that perhaps I need the correct ROM file, I started looking up on forums and tried below 2 RUU EXE files (with HTC Stock ROMs)-
1. RUU_ACE_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed.exe
2. RUU_ACE_Sese30_s_htc_wwe_3.12.405.1_radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_m_release_225512_signed.exe
Well after running the first RUU.exe, I got a little wiser (I guess!) and understood that the RADIO version for RUU should match with my phones RADIO. So i tried the second one, which made me further wiser and i understood that the ROM Version in RUU should also match my phones current version.
Now after all this knowledge, when I tried to found an RUU/ ROM with
3.13.720.2 and Radio v 26.14.04.28_M, I am not able to get any file which suits my need.
1. Can someone please help me to understand, which ROM can be used to restore my phone to working condition (and if my analysis so far is correct or not)?
2. What would be the correct way to restore my phone to working condition, if I am doing something wrong?
PS: As of now, I just want to get it up and running w/o Rooting, if possible...
Thanks for helping me out -

No replies yet? is my question completely wrong??
Pls help guys....
Your handset's firmware is 3.13.720.2, you tried to restore using 1.32.405.6 & 3.12.405.1
You will run into a few issues here.
Firstly your firmware indicate your not on a WWE (World Wide English - HTC Generic) firmware, the x.xx.720.x in your firmware shows this.
Secondly your firmware version is higher than that your trying to restore to. i.e. 3.13.xxx.x as apposed to 1.32.xxx.x & 3.12.xxx.x
Because of those factors you cannot restore using those methods. You need to find a matching firmware to restore.
AFAIK this firmware isn't publicly available. I'm afraid your only option at this juncture is to contact HTC or your retailer and get it repaired under warranty.

As far as I know, it's not that simple. Due to the CID your phone likely has you'll need to install CWM and then flash a stock rom. Maybe other can chime in on this?

cheers for the reply.
ive CWM installed and made a backup of this. Just need to know if thats the correct RUU for my phone (see first post), or if i need to do something else. I have tried the custom roms and they all work but at the end of the day i'm happy just getting it to an "out of the box" phone where theres no company preinstalled apps on it
Also dont know what a CID is (still learning)

Flash this using CWM: http://www.mediafire.com/download/zwzyawscawlgwvs/marvel_signed_021213_001159.zip It's the latest EU RUU converted to be flashed via CWM. No company bloatware on this ROM, 100% pure HTC
thank you VERY much!
just gone through the phone set up and great to see no bloatware
HI
As title said, I accepted the official update from HTC and now my phone won't start.
All I know is I have S-ON and I don't want to do factory wipe.
I did try wipe cache partition multiple times.
here is the info from download mode:

I believe is the 5.1 update
Thank you very much
You did leave it long enough to update?
It took over an hour to update mine and that's not including downloading.
If you power cycled your phone thinking it was stuck you probably borked the update process.
If your device is carrier locked then you'll have to wait for the official ruu.
If you have a wwe (World Wide English) then you can use the 5.1 ruu.
Otherwise you'll have to bite the bullet and reset it, losing all data.
I wish I stole my HTC M9. It's a pile of ****.

We need more information than this to help. What exactly did you do, and what happened when you accepted the ota? By "won't start" what do you mean? A bootloop or is it completely dead?
From your info, it appears the ota never took, as you're still on 1.32 firmware.
To my knowledge, there are no ruus of any sort for Telus. You may need to unlock, install custom recovery, and then flash a backup to get back up.

It said i have an available update, so i accepted and took more than an hour to finished the update. After the update, It just keep looping in the HTC logo screen. I can still go into the bootloader, download mode and recovery mode, but pretty much it. In recovery mode, it can't even open the files in the internal memory. I also did a factory reset/wipe, It didn't work.
How do you know my phone is from telus? I didn't get my phone from carriers, it is unlocked.

That Information can be gained from your firmware version.

Ahhh thank you very much
I also did some digging. I find a website under HTCDEV. I can't post outside link yet. But is it useful in my situation?
I don't really want to root my phone unless i have no other choices.
I have root my previous phones before, but it is more for trying different rom instead of rescuing the phone.

As far as I can see you have two choices:
Option 1 is trying to get the correct RUU for your firmware. I posted a source earlier but it's not for free. Some other users here on xda already have an account for that website so maybe one of them is kind enough to help you out. Nevertheless flashing a RUU will wipe everything on your phone so all your data you didn't backup before all this hassle started is lost.
Option 2 is trying to unlock your bootloader via HTCDdev which will erase everything on your phone, too. After that you are able to flash the custom recovery TWRP. If you are able to find someone else's backup for the firmware version you have you are able to get back to a working stock system, too. But I'm not sure whether an unlock is possible without a booting system because I never faced that situation.

Can you post what's in your Download mode screen (except imei and s/n)? You say the update completed, but the OP lists a 5.0 firmware version. This matters for whether you can unlock and root.
It's possible your phone can't be fixed in its current state and will have to be replaced. This is because of security features that have been added to 5.1, if you indeed got that update.

Okay, that's good. It means the 5.1 update did not take, which means you can still unlock via htcdev if you choose, or that RUU linked above ought to clear things up.
Hey thank you for everyone helps. Since my phone still under warranty, i have decided to send my phone back to HTC. Once again, thank you for everyone who read my post and help me.
I'm quite sure the device restarts a few times after the update. I remember a black htc screen then a couple of reboots (my arse was twitching like a rabbit's nose) then after a short while it booted into the homescreen.
I'd leave it running and connected to the internet overnight and see if it resolves itself. If not then send it to HTC.
I wish I stole my HTC M9. It's a pile of ****.
So I think I played too much.
I've had great luck flashing ROMs, Kernels, and such, and decided to go s- off in order to update my radio and start living on the edge!
All my new found ROMing adventures some made me unable to receive and calls or txts. So after scouring the web I convinced myself that my radio needed to be updated if not "adjusted". With me ego on one shoulder and my confidence on the other I jumped into the realm of my new unknown!
Now I'm stuck in Android system recovery and can't get back to my bootloader(sigh)
So this is what I started off with before I got overly confident-
Htc M8 T-Mobile as of 11/15/15 (original)
CID 11111111
HBOOT 3.19.0.0000
Radio-1.22.213311491.08G
OpenDSP-v48.2.2-00564-M8974_FO1211
os-
eMMC-Boot 2048MB
Oct 8 2014
I flashed via usb
OTA 1.57.531.7 - T-Mobile USA
Yes, I once had backups and now I may have deleted them at one point.
I thought that by "cleaning the slate" it would allow me to install something, sadly no, now my wonderful M8 has been factory/data reset and cache wiped.
So no adb and the only way I can put anything on it is via sd card.
So Far Ive had no luck in attempting to install from stock sys recovery.
Any help would be greatly appreciated in my new learning adventure!:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
*WooHoo! was just a matter of investigating every nook of the web to find something so simple!
Power and vol up for 10 seconds. When the screen turns off, switch to vol down while still holding power.

Hello,
I recently picked up an HTC M9 T-Mobile. I have ATT so I decided to go though the steps of unlocking the device via this link. I actually managed to it get done in a relatively short amount of time so I figured 'This is nice, but why not install a custom rom like you did on your m7, same stuff rite?'
I believe i was an idiot and installed a new kernel and firmware in addition to the rom making my IMEI vanish along with most of the important information about my device. I tried HD Rev 20 and ViperOne.
So I RUU back to my correct stock rom, and now I can't get into the twrp recovery. I was under the impression RUU didn't mess with the recovery partition. I've attempted to flash it several times however it shoots back an error : 35 ru_partition_not_support recovery
I have tried searching and searching for the past few hours and I don't know if I'm blind, or if I'm just screwed. I hate asking for help on here, I know the search function work I just can't seem to find this exact issue.
I'd like to just be clear and mention I can actually boot into stock. As well as booting into the bootloader, and adb recognizes the phone. Ironically the device is still 'unlocked' after all of this, however my recovery is missing entirely, I don't even have the original recovery. When I attempt to access the recovery I get a picture of a phone with a red ! inside it.
The RUU I used was 3.39.531.7
Something I feel may or may not be related, when in download mode I see at the bottom:
FILE /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/0PJAIMG.zip
File NOT FOUND

I have a feeling this is irrelevant if it has to do with the SD card. I also have a really strange feeling this is something stupid easy that I am missing.
Some additional information, please let me know if I missed something:

Thanks in advance.
I am a dumbass.
I flashed with an older version of twrp and that fixed the issue.
Don't be like me kids.
Which version of twrp worked? I continue to get the same error with every version.
