No commands necessary. SD card should be 32GB or less, FAT formatted and contain nothing but the OPJAIMG.zip. When inserted and powered on, it will automatically read and begin flashing the img.

Big Problem

Hy @ all

I have a problem while going back to stock. I'd like to sell my HTC M9 and I'm currently on Viper One M9.

My Version-main is: 1.40.206.8 and my CID: O2___102

I've searched all around the internet, but i didnt find any stock backup, or RUU to go back to stock.

What should i do now?

I really hope for fast help :(

Thanks @ all

PS: Sry for my bad english
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Here you can find the older versions (1.32.206.6 R1, and (1.32.206.15) for your device. You can flash it to get back to stock and get OTA updates to have the newest version.
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
I've tried to flash 1.32.206.15 via Fastboot, but the only one i found was from UK and it didnt work :/
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
I've tried both versions now, multiple times

nothing works -.-

and now i cant unlock my bootloader anymore, very nice :svetius:

so now i can kick this **** M9 out of my window i think?

Or does anyone know what i can do now?

I hope for answers that can help me :/

[One (M9) General] aos10:
so, the new update is for 5.1 ?
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
Can you tell me, how i should do this?

i tried all whats possible, but still no stock...

ive restored a TWRP Backup and flashed System and Recovery.emmc.win via Fastboot, but when i boot the Phone, after a few seconds it restarts and boot into Recovery.

Seems like there is no System installed :/

i flashed around 15 times, but it absolutely wouldnt work

ive spend more than 8 hours

im at the end of my knowledge..
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Why you don't flash 0PJAIMG.zip file via external scared method?

If you are not sure this version ( 1.32.206.15) is compatible with your device or not, you can open the downloaded file ( 0PJAIMG.zip 1.32.206.15) via 7-Zip and open the firs file ( android info) and check if your cid is on the list.

If yes, then try flashing that via sdcard method that instructions are available on the first page of this thread.
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
I have to be S-Off for this?

With S-On it absolutely wouldnt work :/

Thx for help
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Why you have to be S-Off?
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
In another Forum is saw, that a downgrade isnt possible with S-On
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Yes I know what you mean, but I think already some users downgraded htc one m9 without S-Off, as long as they had the same CID and rom's region of their devices.

I can't recommend you to do that, but if you want you can try it.
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
I absolutely dont know why it doesnt work.. thats not my first flash, i flash since Samsung Galaxy S3 nearly all devices: S3 to S6 incl minis, Sony Z2/Z3c, HTC M8 and now the problem with M9... i cant understand whats the problem :/
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
I personally hadn't flash via fastboot due to some errors.

I usually flash via sdcard method that I think is the best one.

You should be able to restore stock back up via twrp, but remember even if you use this method it doesn't flash the firmware. So if you have a different firmware installed on your device at the moment, after restoring via twrp still you need to flash the proper firmware to be able to get OTA updates.
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
I have also tried several times.. I restored in twrp, than flash system.emmc.win multiple times via Fastboot, all right, but when i boot there is no system installed :D

all is installed, but absolutely no system. and system.emmc.win flash in twrp isnt possible, because i cant move it to sd, or anywhere. it says, that it is to big to move it
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Did you flash boot.emmc.win too?
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
Yep, boot.emmc.win and recovery.emmc.win too

when i restart then, i see HTC Logo without red text, but after a few seconds it reboots into recovery

and when i boot into bootloader it shows modifyed rom
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Try flashing back up via twrp. For this if you have OTG cable you can put the backup folder to your usb and then restore it by choosing the usb.

But again, if your current firmware version is not the same as backup version you won't be able to apply OTAs.
[One (M9) General] Denis Meissner:
it couldnt be the same, because im on 1.40.206.8 and the backup is 1.32.206.15

how can i get back OTAs then?
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Is it your current software or firmware? To ensure take a look at download mode to see your exact current firmware.

If it's 1.40.206.8 then even by restoring that backup you can't apply OTAs, because stock backup is not included the firmware.

In this case you should find the stock backup the same version as your firmware.

If I were you I would try flashing 0PJAIMG.zip file even if it is a downgrade. Because already some people did that.
[One (M9) General] Flippy498:
Format the SD card to exfat and try again. Fat32 is only needed for the 0PJAIMG.zip method.

It's impossible with S-ON and using TWRP backups as long as it's not a 1.40.206.8 backup.
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
There is also another possibility that your download file is corrupted. Did you check md5 check sum?
[One (M9) General] MrLizm:

Going back to stock recovery

I'm trying to go back to stock recovery from TWRP. I'm have the HTC One M9 - Unlocked Edition US version running 1.32.617.30 and S-ON. I can't seem to find a signed version of the 1.32.617.30 recovery, only a unsigned version. I was able to find a signed version at 1.32.617.6. Will flashing with the newer version cause issues?

[One (M9) General] Captain_Throwback:
How exactly would you go about flashing it? You'd flash the update in TWRP? Stock recovery won't flash it unless it's signed. And TWRP can't flash firmware, so I assume you'd have to do that manually?
[One (M9) General] Jonny:
I can't remember exactly unfortunately, was a while ago - all I know is showed a few people how to edit the updater-script and they reported it worked.
[One (M9) General] :
If TWRP can do block updates I can prepare a two-step update which should flash the OTA. I need a tester who is on .8 and is willing to have their data partition wiped.

PS. From what I can see firmware.zip has an HTC signature attached. Should flash via Fastboot (bootloader locked obviously).
[One (M9) General] chrisch1974:
Editing the updater-script won't help you. Maybe in rare cases where people only mounted the system partition. But if there were made any changes to it the partition is broken anyway. Because the new update system is working on block level and not on files anymore. That means that you can get a totally broken file system.
[One (M9) General] guidogsbn:
For me it should be possible to flash the OTA Update by Crucky in Post 78 from -internal???- SDCard by renaming it as shown in Post 1 or are there any warnings?
[One (M9) General] crucky:
sorry bro i dont think so because you have a 206 device and another CID (o2 germany :P ? ) and this OTA is for 401 WWE so you have to wait for o2 Germany to push an OTA and that means you have to wait a longer time -.- you did an o2 myhandy :P ?
[One (M9) General] :
[MENTION=3604086]chrisch1974[/MENTION] - unless we do this (assuming unlocked BL)

1. Flash stock system.img (either via TWRP or Fastboot)

2. Modify OTA for TWRP to remove checks (removing checks might not be actually needed since the stock system was flashed)

3. Flash stock recovery

4. Lock BL

5. Flash firmware via oem fastboot (the zip ontains HTC signatures)

6. ???

7. Profit
[One (M9) General] Captain_Throwback:
But in this case, the locking and subsequent unlocking of the bootloader will erase userdata. So it's important to also back that up before starting this process, so that it can be restored after the firmware update is applied and the device has been unlocked again with TWRP installed.

The first thing anyone should do after installing TWRP is take a backup of system before flashing anything. While I'm sure someone will post a stock system image/backup somewhere, that's really the safest and most reliable way to make sure you have a valid starting point from which the OTA will run.
[One (M9) General] :
Then again, thinking about it, as long as we restore system, recovery and lock BL we should be able to accept the OTA. The downside, as always, data lost when unlocking BL.
[One (M9) General] Kugelfischmau:

[One (M9) General] ChronoWerX:
I hoped it worked. Reflash stock recovery, lock bootloader and install OTA in OS. Device restart in recovery, hang and brick my OS. I hope I can install the OTA on this way, to reanimate the M9 :(
[One (M9) General] Captain_Throwback:
If you flashed the original TWRP that was uploaded to the TeamWin site (2.8.5.0), even if you immediately made a backup, then your system checksum will be incorrect, so the OTA will fail. You'll need to remove those lines from the OTA zip that were discussed earlier and see if TWRP will flash it. I'd recommend using only TWRP 2.8.6.0 to avoid any further issues.
[One (M9) General] Electronic Punk:
I checked out 2.8.6.0 but found that I had no option to mount system.

[One (M9) General] kingvortex:
You don't need S-OFF to flash a ruu. I find the easiest way is to use the SD card method.

Rename the file as 0PJAIMG.zip and put it on a SD card formatted as fat32 (nothing else should be on the card). Then boot your phone in download mode (power off, then hold power and volume down until download mode appears) and follow the onscreen instructions.

This will wipe your data and internal SD, so backup any data first.
[One (M9) General] dexterxda:
In the original post it's written:

"S-Off is Required with European CID"

Referring to the phone's cid or the ruu's?

[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
S-off is required IF your cid is diffraction from the list provided. If your device's cid is incuded in the ruu's cids, then you don't need to be s-off.

Rename the file 0PJAIMG.zip and put it on your external SD card. The card should be formatted FAT32 and nothing apart from the zip should be on there. When you reboot into download mode, you will be prompted to flash the zip.

This will wipe your data, so backup what you need.
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
You should rename it to "0PJAIMG.zip" then put it into the root of your external sd card. Your external sd card should be 32 GB or less and formatted in FAT32.
