Update your firmware to an oreo firmware, simple as that. Oreo roms do not work on nougat firmwares
Perhaps

Thanks for the respond,
but for that I need root, which it is the problem with supersu.
I need root for Sunshine, so I can place oreo on the phone.
Do someone remember which version of Viper works with Nougat and if I need to have the phone root first before flashing the ROM.

Alright, i will ask this question.
Why do you need root? Why do you need s-off. Why can't you go back to stock and take the OTA to oreo first, hasn't t mobile released the oreo update yet?
Edit:
At least i found a ruu.exe here
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=746010030569947237
Thanks to @ziand
That file will bring the phone to box stock and at that time you will be able to update to oreo.

I've tried on multiple occasions to install the latest nightly CM13 on my m9 without success.
About a couple months after the phone came out I UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER and ROOTED. I also flashed TWRP v2.8.7.0. Phone Software version: 1.32.710.16
After I did this I could no longer install the latest HTC updates due to my custom recovery. Now I'm done with the lag and bloatware and want to install CM13.
I tried to flash the latest CM13 through ADB and was getting error: assert failed: hima.verify_sbl1... / Error executing updater binary in zip...I also tried installing through TWRP...no luck.
I have come to the understanding that I need to install the lastest firmware from HTC since CM13 is Android 6.0 before I try to flash CM13 again.
I am download the latest firmware update from HTC: RUU_HIMA_UL_M60_SENSE70_ATT_MR_NA_Gen_Unlock_3.35.617.12.exe
Will this be ok to install as is and will i then be able to flash CM13?
I've been reading that a few people have bricked their phones following this HTC guide and Im scared to do the same.
Any advice? Thank you
you need a firmware for x.xx.710.xx ... you can't install another firmware as long as your phone is not s-offed

sunshine only works with near stock rom, or stock. for example ARHD or MaximusHD will work fine, not possible on cm13 or any other "hardcoded" custom rom

Ok so I'm an android noob and my HTC One M9 is soft bricked, I'm not even sure if it can be fixed. It has (had) android 4.4.2, TWRP and it is unlocked. It all started because my phone randomly stopped booting up, it started freezing at the HTC logo. After trying a lot of things and nothing worked I decided to do a factory reset, but I accidentally deleted my whole OS from my recovery. I decided to flash a new ROM and I downloaded the latest version of ViperOneM9. I flashed it from my recovery, the installation went smooth with no errors. When I tried to start my phone it booted only to bootloader. I tried reinstalling the ROM several times but it didn't fix it. I read on another forum that I should update my recovery (it was an older version, maybe 2.8.7.0, I'm not sure). I downoaded the latest version and flashed it from my old recovery. After that my recovery became inaccessible as well - it says "Failed to boot to recovery mode. Press volume up or down to back to menu". I tried installing several different versions of TWRP with fastboot but none worked. I decided not to mess with my phone anymore, so I took it to a repair shop. They couldn't fix it, I just got my phone back from them. I don't know what they tried, but everything is the same- phone can't boot up, can't access recovery mode. . Can someone please help?
I'd guess your firmware is out of date. The latest version of ViperOneM9 assumes that you're on the Android 6.0 firmware. As for TWRP being non-functional, that's probably because the latest version (3.x.x.x) also assumes you're on the Android 6.0 firmware and isn't compatible with 4.4.2 firmware.
If you know your MID & CID, perhaps the easiest way to get the latest firmware on your phone is the SD-card method of flashing an RUU. You will lose everything on internal memory (probably a non-issue, since the OS was already deleted), and your phone will be reset to factory defaults. You'll need to unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP, and root (if you so choose) all over again. But the RUU will get you on your feet again, and with the latest firmware.
Alternatively, you could flash the old TWRP version and then a pre-Android 6.0 ROM onto your M9, which should restore functionality, albeit with an old version of the Android OS.
Are you sure that you own a One M9. The oldest android version for the M9 is 5.0. Your problems might be caused by the fact that you're flashing files that aren't compatible with your phone.

Thanks a lot for the help, I fixed my recovery but I have no idea from where can I find a pre-Android 6.0 ROM. I can't find download links on the official sites of the ROMs

Might be. It's been some time since I used firmware 1.x. The whole point of that post was that I wanted to explain that there's never been a 4.4.2 rom.

Hi, I'm a long time Android enthusiast, owning, rooting and modding a Nexus 4, LG Optimus V, and Honor 5X. However, the HTC 10 is really confusing to me because of its new Nougat update.
I currently have a US Unlocked HTC 10 with a freshly unlocked bootloader, S-On. I was wondering if I should root it with TWRP Recovery, and install an RUU to keep root, or is that not how it works? I'm jut very confused as to how to keep root going into the Nougat update. Thanks
Thats not how it works.
When you use an RUU, it will not keep root. It will wipe your device full factory reset.
I dont really recommend the 7.0 update just yet as there is no TWRP for it.
Since you are S-ON, you wont be able to downgrade back to 6.0.
You CAN root 7.0 using Magisk if you need to.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/root-magisk-autoroot-magisk-phhs-t3507505
If Still you want to upgrade, then you should S-OFF FIRST.. so you can downgrade if you want. You can NOT S-OFF from 7.0 yet, and you can not downgrade without S-OFF, so it's a one way ticket if you don't S-OFF first. (for now.)
You cant really Keep root (AKAIK), you'll have to re-root after each update. Here is what I usually do (excluding the 7.0 update for now because there is no TWRP Yet)
1) Flash TWRP.
2) Backup System Image / Boot (Clean - before root).
3) Flash the latest SuperSU to root.
4) When there is a new OTA update, boot to TWRP, restore the Last Clean System Image / Boot images.
5) Flash Latest Stock Recovery.img. (You'll need to find it, or extract it from an OTA Zip)
6) Boot to Rom, Install OTA.
7) Repeat Steps 1-3

I see. Seems as it it'd be better to wait for a confirmed root / twrp method for 7.0 first for a guranated method. Thank you, some of these terms are new to me....

I think there are many of us that are in this situation, I will be waiting patiently for a fix to the TWRP issue with 7.0 and then will enjoy the ride...

Yep, same here. The best option is to wait for Captain Throwback to get TWRP spruced up for Nougat. Flash Nougat then flash TWRP.

Oh yeah, good point lol. Would need to flash an older boot combination I guess. Way to dangerous for most, this is why I s-off first and mess around after. I imagine TWRP won't be long anyway
Hey, I've decided to convert my phone to WWE, but I'd like to avoid unlocking bootloader through htcdev and I also want to backup my stock rom, since it's polish tmobile so not commonly available. Shall I just perform the steps from this thread, but only from 6th step, and after S-OFF that temp-rooted the phone just root and install TWRP and then perform the backup?
Any help would be higly appreciated
after having s-off, flahs TWRP and then DON'T ROOT yet, also ensure you keep /system readonly in TWRP..it will ask you when you open TWRP the first time.
Then go to TWRP-backup and backup the system.img and boot.img..then you got a 100% stock rom (besides stock recovery)...you could dd the recovery partition though, before flashing twrp.
now you can root your phone by flashing the latest SuperSU.zip or flash a custom rom (those are prerooted)

Hi everyone, first time posting here.
I've recently purchased a HTC 10 from a friend. I'm looking to upgrade it to android version 7
The phone has TWRP recovery but no back up of a stock untouched ROM, ive tried looking for a stock UK H3G ROM (H3G_001) but I've been unable to find 1.
Could someone give me a little help on how to update my phone, possibly an idiot proof step by step guide. i just want the latest version available for my phone.
Thanks
Try this thread from a few weeks ago:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/help/stock-rom-required-htc-10-cid-h3g001-t3627726
Obviously you'd need a stock backup that matches the version you currently have.
Does your phone currently detect an available ota update?

So, if your system is rooted or modified in any way, you'll need to flash a stock system backup, matching the firmware version you currently have. Then flash stock recovery, and you'd be able to take the OTA.
If your system is already untouched, you would just need to flash the stock recovery, again matching your firmware version, and then take the OTA. There is a recovery for 6.0.1 in that link, but I'm not sure if it's for your firmware version. You could try to flash it and see if the OTA works.
Thinking about it more, if you're able to download the ota I think the best thing to do is to flash the OTA using twrp manually. See instructions in the faq located in the twrp thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ht...ery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3358139/post66347165
If you follow the instructions, you should be able to take the OTA including firmware, and not have to worry about restoring anything stock first.
