This RUU isn't signed. It's a "selfmade" RUU, you can only flash this if you're S-Off

Try that...

[One (M9) General] Flippy498:
The SD card doesn't influence the flash via fastboot. But be aware that you can only downgrade with S-OFF.

That's correct. I wrote more or less the same in post 1131. :p

Hi bro, if u get xxx.425.x RUU please share to me. I'm looking for it, too. :)
[One (M9) General] Asselalf:
1.xx.425.x RUU is on the way. Should be online in 1h
[One (M9) General] gelo01:
Bummer.. i'm not S-Off. And there's still no way for me to acquire it until now. So, RUU only work on an S-Off device or if only downgrading?

Well if that's the latter, then the only choice i have is to have a 2.xx.425.x firmware and not 1.xx.425.x, which is nowhere to be found. How sad.. :(
[One (M9) General] Flippy498:
In general RUUs can be used with S-ON and S-OFF. However if your phone is S-ON the RUU needs to match your phones CID and its SKU (the three numbers behind the second dot in the firmware version). Besides the RUU's firmware version has to be at least as high as the currently installed one (in other words: no downgrades with S-ON).

In your case you either can get S-OFF via Sunshine or a java card, you can use the RUU service on Llabtoofer's website or you wait and hope that someone with your firmware version creates and uploads a TWRP backup that contains an untouched system image, the boot image and the stock recovery of your currently installed firmware.

Edit: Here's the download link for the 1.34.425.7 RUU (thanks to Handy-FAQ.de).
[One (M9) General] calikevin:
I am having the same issue but with different versions, mine says it expects the asia_tw but it says my device has the htc_europe version. All I did was install custom recovery, backup entire stock ROM, and root with supersu. To unroot and go back to stock for the OTA, I restored my Stock ROM backup, and then installed a stock recovery. Are the recoveries model specific at all too? What do I need to do in order to fix this issue? And please don't suggest S-Off, not an option right now. Thanks in advance!
[One (M9) General] gregsarg:
Then you are the exception...

Flashing an RUU is not possible under your conditions...

Flashing a TWRP rom is different....g
[One (M9) General] gelo01:
Actually I manage to have my own untouched system image, boot image and stock recovery, before i flashed TWRP on my device. The thing is, i think an RUU would be faster and easier to go back to stock, but now that there's still no RUU for my phone, the only thing i could do is to revert back to the untouched system image i have, problem is i don't know exactly how to do that.. :/
[One (M9) General] Flippy498:
Well, if all three files are in the same TWRP backup then you can use the instructions in my google sheet. Btw: No matter whether you choose a RUU or a backup there are only 11 (backups and RUU.zip) or 10 (RUU.exe) steps you need to follow in my instructions. So I wouldn't say that one method is much faster than the other. :p
[One (M9) General] gelo01:
Haha! :p

I see, so either way, it's still a long process to do. I thought RUU are "plug-and-play" where you just open it and done, guess i'm wrong. Luckily i managed to backup those three. :)

May i have the link of your google sheet for the instructions on going back to stock using the backups i made? Thank you very much mate! :cool::thumbup:

Well, I have to tell you, if you're S-on there is no way for you to go to MM untill Orange UK updates your firmware.

Only other way to go is S-off...

But then again, if you'd done a proper search, which I am assuming you did, you would know all of this already..

You have to update firmware which if you're S-on you can only do when your carrier sends you the OTA.

help needed please

Hello everyone,

Im new to this forum looking for some help, after searching google for days my head hurts and i just want to cry, this forum is my last resort at finally getting this problem sorted.

Ok so im from England and have a HTC one m9 which was purchased unlocked so open to any carrier. I rooted it earlier last year and got the phone to S-OFF, everything was great at first then i recieved an ota update for lollipop 5.1 which i could not do because i was rooted, i think i tried to install a EU stock RUU so i could do the update but it appears that the phone is still kind of rooted, it has the super su app which grants permissions and some apps dont work like banking apps which come up with error message saying they wont work on rooted handset.

On bootloader my software status is modified, it did say re-locked which ive now recently got it to say locked and its still s-off.

When i try the 5.1 update, halfway through installing i get an error message which says

E:missing bitmap oem_unlock_bg

(Code -1)

E:missing bitmap oem_unlock_bg_yes

(Code -1)

E:missing bitmap oem_unlock_bg_no

Installation Aborted

I know android MM 6.0 has been released as OTA update for unlocked handsets in the UK but when i search for updates on my handset i still get the 5.1 update. I just want to get my phone unrooted so that i can use banking apps and get the latest OTA updates.

If someone would be as so kind to finally sort this out for me and run me through the steps, I'm only a student so not rolling in money but would be more than willing to donate £10-£20 to them, this is really stressing me out and im frying my brain trying to get it sorted.

Many thanks to everyone helping out at this forum,

Shaun
[One (M9) General] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Hello and welcome [MENTION=7271159]kid_lightning[/MENTION],

first question is how are you trying to install/flash the RUU file. I'd need an output if the "fastboot getvar all" command, performed when your M9 is connected to your PC and in download mode. Only then could direct you to the correct RUU and method.

In general we'd need a RUU for your device and rename it to 0PJAIMG.zip and put it into the root directory of your M9. After this one has to perform a reboot to bootloader, as the device will check for an existing RUU if in bootloader mode and start flashing it as soon as it has been found.

I'd personally start with the RUU corresponding to your actual firmware and OTA step by step, up to MM afterwards. Only this way you'll be sure that all partitions of the firmware will be updated thoroughly.

Keep the head up. We'll surely get into and running again.

Hi there,

Anyone here downloaded 1.34.425.x ruus from handy-FAQ.de ?

Cause I downloaded two 1.34.425.7 & 8 ruus, they works fine except no ota update for both ruus.

Now my phone stuck at 5.0.2 .....
[One (M9) General] Flippy498:
Are you S-ON or S-OFF? What was your firmware version before you used those RUUs? What's your current CID?

Those RUUs didn't get tested before they got reuploaded but if you could use them with S-ON and there haven't been any errors while flashing then they should be able to receive OTAs.
[One (M9) General] hoaisonongame:
My phone has stock rom provided by HTC Vietnam and updated by OTAs to android 6.0

For some apps issues I want to back to 5.1 and I flashed handy-faq.de ruu by sd card method. The flashing went fine but the phone booted up with no IMEI and baseband.

Then I flashed this ruu again by sd card method, too. This time it worked well with correct IMEI and baseband. But I cheked update and there was no updates at all.

And my phone is s-off. Cid htc__059 (for x.xx.425.x ruu for sure)

I'm so glad if someone could help me solve this issue
[One (M9) General] kid_lightning:
I downloaded that file and done what [MENTION=5832952]HTCNerdYoda[/MENTION] suggested which was to rename it OPJAIMG.ZIP then put it into the root of my fat32 formatted SD Card and then put that in my phone and rebooted into bootloader but nothing happened, i then rebooted to download mode and had an error message along the bottom saying something along the lines of "could not find OPJAIMG", i tried to flash it through fastboot over usb on download mode but that also didnt work.

I then clicked on the OPJAIMG.ZIP file and tried to open the readme.txt document but it failed to extract through winrar and said archive is corrupt, i also could not unzip the OPJAIMG.ZIP file. I re-downloaded the file and chose a different server but it had the same problems.

I'm now unsure of what file i need, if either of you could help find another one for me or know if this is a fault from my end then that would be great.

Thanks,

Shaun

In 0PJAIMG.zip it's a Zero 0 at the beginning NOT a capital O as Oscar [emoji6]

This zip can't be extracted the typical way, as it is a flashable RUU zip. So this is all fine.

[One (M9) General] kid_lightning:
Thanks for getting back to me [MENTION=5832952]HTCNerdYoda[/MENTION], I should have pointed out that i did also try it with a '0' rather than O.

I just done it again to reafffirm and its still doing nothing when i put it into bootloader. When i go into download mode the exact error at the bottom says "FILE /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/0PJAIMG.zip File NOT FOUND".

I hope im putting the 0PJAIMG.zip in the right place in the external SD card, i open my computer, click on the sd card and drop the 0PJAIMG.zip file right there, not in any folders or anything, on the top level if you will.

Many Thanks,

Shaun
[One (M9) General] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Ok understood. So this is all right.

What happens if you put the file in your fastboot folder on PC. Reboot the One M9 to download mode and try flashing it per "fastboot flash zip nameofruufile.zip"

Send by the swarm intelligence of my coffee machine ?.
[One (M9) General] kid_lightning:
At first it said "error: cannot load 0PJAIMG.zip" i think this was because i had named the actual zip file "0PJAIMG.zip" so it was essentially "0PJAIMG.zip.zip".

Anyway i changed the zip file name to just "0PJAIMG" and executed "fastboot flash zip 0PJAIMG.zip" and it said,

"target reported max download size of 800000000 bytes

invalid sparse file format header magi".

Then i get a windows error message saying "fastboot.exe has stopped working, windows is checking for a solution"
[One (M9) General] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Good, so now we got the correct name. Now we need the correct fastboot, as you got one that is nice working with the M9. Poorly the fastboot.exe files in the official SDK doesn't work most of the times. Thus you got the error you named above. Nothing wrong with the RUU.

You can find htc_fastboot here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934550031

The correct command would then be "htc_fastboot flash zip 0PJAIMG.zip"

[One (M9) General] Electronic Punk:
Well I flashed the RUU which put stock recovery back anyway.
[One (M9) General] Captain_Throwback:
True, RUU will fix everything.

But the recovery isn't the key, it's the system partition. This is very different for everyone coming from a previous HTC device. It'll take some getting used to. Whatever you do, especially if you're on an obscure carrier with no RUU, make sure you use the latest TWRP so you don't completely break your ability to take an OTA just by flashing the wrong TWRP (yes, it really is THAT easy to break it).
[One (M9) General] ChronoWerX:
Have someone a RUU from o2?
[One (M9) General] Electronic Punk:
Oh definitely, the reason I put the RUU and OTA back on was to firstly see if I could and to try and see if anything was missing from preload - not as far as I can see anyway, was concerned flashlight was missing, but it literally seems to only exist in quick settings now.
[One (M9) General] ChronoWerX:
Or can please someone do a TWRP backup from o2 rom with ota?
[One (M9) General] Kugelfischmau:
I would do the TWRP backup, if someone will confirm that it is no problem or risk to brick, if I unlock my bootloader and flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 via adb on my phone. Also I want to get future OTA! is this possible with custom recovery and without root?
[One (M9) General] tryfound:
Is it possible to change my firmware to a stock unbranded version from EU and get OTA updates this way? My provider here often takes months to release updates and often skips several so I'm likely to only get a handful over the next 24 months.

Depends what CID you have and/or when/if we get S-Off

[One (M9) General] AirwolfUK:
I wanted to check if my idea here will work before i potentially screw up my device.

I am s-on and want to go back to stock.

I made a TWRP backup of my 1.32.x system before i took the ota to 2.10.x however, even though it will restore and the ota again for 2.10.x arrives, it will not install as i do not have a 1.32.x recovery.

however, i have now extracted 1.32.x recovery from the 1.32.x RUU.zip using the method posted in this thread so my question is, can i flash the 1.32.x recovery using flashify after i restore my 1.32x backup and be back at stock to install the OTAs?

thanks -

Edit: it didnt work. I restored my twrp backup, re locked the bootloader and flashed my 1.32.x recovery. OTA downloaded, tried to install but failed with a system set to r/w error.

Look like there is no way to force a downgrade in firmware.

[One (M9) General] Flippy498:
There is no 2.11.708.30 RUU and restoring a 3.42.708.3 backup won't update your firmware. Due to the incompatibility between the 3.42.708.3 rom and the 2.11.708.30 firmware on your phone might not boot at all or if it boots chances are high that the phone will glitch like hell.

Nevertheless you could restore a 2.11.708.30 backup and then install the OTA. Instructions and the needed backup can be found in my signature.
[One (M9) General] GrimJoke:
Safest route, as far as I am concerned, would be to flash the RUU for HK from androidruu.com and then update.
[One (M9) General] Flippy498:
That's only possible with S-OFF. You can't downgrade with S-ON. Restoring a TWRP backup that contains an untouched system image, a boot image and the corresponding stock recovery is more than enough if you want to install the latest update. Paying for sunshine only for getting back to stock would be wasted money as long as someone provided a backup for the firmware version that is currently installed on your phone. It's only important that you follow the instructions above the download links in my sheet. Otherwise your system partition won't be re-mount as read-only and the OTA update will fail due to the system being mounted as read/write.
[One (M9) General] GrimJoke:
I assumed he's S-OFF. But yeah, follow what Flippy has suggested if you're S-ON.
