[Q] Searching for 3.14.161.27 RUU

Today I've tried rooting my phone, it all went horribly wrong, I've literally tried everything on the XDA forums and have checked out the disaster recovery tutorial. Nothing however seems to help, only thing I haven't been able to try is to flash a RUU, because I haven't been able to find mine, it's 3.14.161.27 , if anyone is in possesion of it or knows how to come by it, I'd really need your help!
Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry I would't know, what is it and where would I find it?

There is no RUU for 3.14.161.27 yet.
You need explain what kind of problem that you have when rooting, maybe someone can help you with that

It stays stuck on the boot screen of cyanogenmod, i've tried reflashing the kernel, fastboot erase cache, reflashing the rom, restoring to my old rom, which only changed the screen it stayed stuck to (HTC screen). And now somehow my Nandroid backup isn't on my phone anymore, neither is the cyanogenmod ROM, so i've got a Phone i've flashed the latest cyanogenmod onto, that's stuck in bootloop, with nothing else on it. I think that pretty much sums it up. My last resort is drowning or destroying it so my insurance wil get me a new one, however it will cost me, and I'd rather not destroy such a awesome device

This is a higher version but I think it should work fine -

So you didn't do the cleaver thing and...
1. Check for an RUU
2. Make a backup
Before trying to root?

i've actually made a backup, it's still on my pc, but it seems my phone's internal memory is cleared because it's not in there no more, and i can't access the file on my pc using my phone because it's, well, broken

My bad. That's the only JB RUU in the list at www.htcruu.com and I thought it would work.

So does anyone have an idea on how to fix my phone?

Sounds like you need to flash the boot.img that supports hboot 1.36. Check the first post of your CM10 ROM. GPS won't work.
If you have clockworkmod 5.8.4.0, you can mount sd card and copy a different ROM on if you want.
If you have an older version, drop to fastboot and flash the new one (I say new, it's been out like 6 months).

i've tried flashing CWM, but in the cmd window, it says "FAILED <command write failed <unknown error>>
and then that it's finished

I would be grateful I'd anyone has this RUU as well. Restore is corrupted .

What you need is Vodafone JB nandroid. Download it from HERE, and flash from your recovery.
You can also find it HERE
Flash boot.img contained in this nandroid, and you should be fine.
Let me know how it went...

[Q] updating m9 verizon out of US?

Hi, i use m9 verizon out of the US. i can't even check if there is an update. it says "updating ony works in CMDA mode". I can use my phone , mobile internet 3g etc. i hate it and i want to know if i can flash rom and working normal, updating itself and no wrong sim card alert?
Do you suggest any rom? Or can i install just one EU rom? Thank you.

You shouldn't flash an international ROM on your Verizon M9 unless it includes support for Verizon.
As far as updates, they will be posted here when they come, so you will be able to stay up to date as long as you are S-Off.

dumb firmware question

Sorry, I should know but I can't find the answer searching.
US unlocked unit on ATT, S-ON, running Viper 1.1.0. My baseband is 1.0.U......3_45.00_F

Is there updated firmware I should flash or is this the most current? Not getting the baseband/build difference. Have rooted for years and run custom roms but am not a techie. Thanks in advance.

Or get S-OFF, and simply take out the "firmware.zip" file out of the RUU, there is no reason for wiping or going back to stock, then via sd card you can flash the firmware in Download/Fastboot mode, or you can use a Computer to do it.
I highly suggest you get S-OFF now before HTC possibly patches it like they have many many times before, if so it could be a while before an update is available to make Sunshine work again, they are the best at getting around to it though, but HTC has blocked them before on older devices.
Besides S-ON is horrible and causes issues, like for example without a custom kernel or a kernel patch in some cases you can't install Viper4android driver, or Adaway won't work, issues like that, S-ON blocks certain writes to succeed on /System, basically S-ON=Half A** Root. :laugh:

I must be doing something wrong. I am now S-OFF via Sunshine. Downloaded the firmware package and flashed. Seemed to work, I had 1.53 in bootloader. Created a bit of havoc and had to reinstall ViperRom a few times to get the phone working again. Now showing 1.30 in About tab again.
Anyone?

Because there rom is based on 1.30

You're confusing the ROM build with your firmware. The system about info will not tell you your firmware. It shows 1.30.* because that's the ROM build.
Boot into downloader mode and it'll show your firmware as being 1.53.617.5
You will not get best performance out of a Euro build, it's missing the carrier provision information for US carriers.

I am on US Unlocked and 1.53.617.5 firmware using Viper 10 1.2 on T-Mobile. It works great! I notice nothing different about my signal or interface with my carrier. I have VoLTE and WiFi Calling working and working well. Also, I have read that people have working VoLTE for AT&T in the Viper10 thread.
You could also use BadBoyz which is based on the US Unlocked 1.53.617.5.

I assume you mean, you want to unlock the bootloader and gain S-Off?
there's no harm in trying the easiest option

if it is going to succeed it will tell you before you have to pay.

Thanks for your response. Unfortunately it didn't work. Any way to flash the phone back to an older version of the software, an ruu without being s-off?

I followed the instructions in this thread (about a week ago) and it worked like a dream.

check firmware version?

So I managed to flash a rooted developer edition rom on my m9 and when I tried to run ota updates, I got an error saying that it couldn't finish because my phone's software has been modified. After some searching around (and admiditantly some arguing), found out that it's because my firmware doesn't match my android version. I'm still running android 5.0.2 and I don't THINK I messed with the firmware. So how do I check the firmware version and find either a rom (preferably as close to stock as possible) or a ruu that will work for the software/firmware versions that I'm using?

Please do a "fastboot getvar all" and post here.

There ya go

Download this RUU: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=96039337900114053
Rename it to 0PJA100.zip
Put it in root of your card(fat32 formatted).
Boot in download(make sure you have sufficient battery) and follow instructions.
P.S: First backup your data, this procedure will erase all your data.

If you have S-OFF it's simple to convert, I'll show you a little tutorial.
If you don't have S-OFF it's impossible and you'll be stuck with this firmware if you won't get an AT&T sim.
Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

I don't have S-offor or the $25 for sunshine. Shouldn't there be a t-mobile, MetroPCS or developer rom or ruu that's compatible with the firmware I'm using?

You can only flash AT&T because of CID, every carrier have different CID and because that the different RUU will give you error.
Only with S-OFF you can change CID and MID and flash any GSM RUU.
So, you're stuck with 1.32.502.9 firmware until you get an AT&T sim to update it or s-off it.
With this firmware you can only flash custom roms with Android version 5.x and some 6.0.x but just few 6.0.x and maybe will be unstable.
Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

Ah, okay. So basically, I have to go back to AT&T then use a series of ruu files to work my way to nougat then finally flash the custom rom?

Or you can just flash this RUU, then update it from settings, it's more simple.

That's actually why I tried flashing a rom. AT&T won't let you get updates unless you're using their sim card for some ungodly reason.

I understand what you tried but it's impossible to jump firmware to 2.xx.502.xx or more with RUU, this can be done only with OTA on S-ON phones.
Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

Is it possible to go from one ruu to the next until I get the phone to nougat though?

No, you cannot update it to 2.xx.502.xx or more with RUU, just OTA, Flippy explained you why in the other thread(different encryption between 1.... 2... 3... and 4... firmwares).
So the only way to update your firmware is to flash the RUU I give you(don't flash twrp, root,etc), get an AT&T sim and update it from settings until you reach nougat.
I don't explain it one more time... I think I explained the same thing in different ways 3-4 times....
Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

Excuse me. I was thinking/hoping software provided by HTC themselves would be able to upgrade the firmware along with the OS instead of forcing everyone to be stuck with the only option for software upgrades from a carrier that we don't even want/use. It only makes sense that if it can be done on samsung phones, which I've rooted and flashed several times, it could also be done on HTC. So it looks like the only way to get nougat is to suck AT&T's ****. Thanks.
