[One (M9) General] h0mer_:
Hi all again :)

I'm still not having any joy with this handset and finding either an 1.40.841.8ruu or a stock back up. The couple that I have come across have all been earlier versions so I've been unable to flash them :(

Does anyone have a pointer to something I can use please? It's a Telstra supplied HTC M9, currently rooted and with the TWRP bootloader. I think I stuffed up the initial backup, and didn't select the system_image.emmc partition. Hence why my backup is not the most helpful of backups...

(I'm trying to get rid of the OTA notice that keeps coming up, and would like to S-OFF so that I can get rid of the standard firmware altogether and try out some of the custom roms. There was a few posts I made earlier in the thread, around the page 9 & 10 mark)

Thanks for any more advice or tips you can throw this way, :good:

Cheers
[One (M9) General] matust:
Can't you just use this one and then take the ota? http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p...61_56.01.50303G_3_F_release_425231_signed.zip
[One (M9) General] h0mer_:
I tried that, but the handset threw up some errors when I tried to flash it from the download screen, as per Nima78600's instructions in his post #108

I feel like I'm just going around in circles. I've found quite a few RUUs at the 1.40.7xx , and 2.1.xx version level, but as I understand it, I can't downgrade, and I don't want to flash a non Aust/Telstra firmware and then have the phone not working on Telstra's network.
[One (M9) General] matust:
If you are s-on then you can only flash the .841 ruu but downgrading shouldn't be an issue. I can only suggest to have a look at post 120, make sure your following the instructions ie using a sd card formatted to fat32. If that doesn't work I can only suggest re downloading the ruu (maybe it was corrupted on download). As a last resort try the adb method.
[One (M9) General] h0mer_:
I've formatted the sdcard to FAT32 again, and now copying the firmware file back across to it. The MD5 hashs were the same when I checked, but I'll re-check them again once copied. And then give it another go at flashing. **crosses fingers, arms, legs**
[One (M9) General] matust:
Good luck! ?
[One (M9) General] h0mer_:
I'm doomed :(

Same error as last time:
[One (M9) General] matust:
Can you post a picture of the first download mode screen? I think your getting that message because the ruu your trying to flash doesn't match your device. Are you s-on? Have you tried to change your cid or mid?
[One (M9) General] h0mer_:
See my post #126 for the a photo of the download mode screen. Phone is s-on, haven't tried changing CID or MID (need to be s-off for that, yeah??), it's running the Telstra branding as well.
[One (M9) General] matust:
Ok, that image doesn't show up for me. If your s-on and using the correct ruu I'm out of ideas.
[One (M9) General] h0mer_:
Does it show now?

Welcome to my world :(

Thanks for having a go :good:
[One (M9) General] matust:
Yep that worked but doesn't give me any other ideas :(
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Can u tell me what's ur problem exactly?
[One (M9) General] matust:
It's [MENTION=3039881]h0mer_[/MENTION] he can't restore to stock with ruu sd card method
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Oh sorry I misunderstood. Those pics shows that device can't find the file zip. He should follow the exact instructions, otherwise the device can't find the file.
[One (M9) General] Ronald.Carter:
I am in the exact same boat but with a Vodafone Branded one
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Can u tell me what's ur current firmware and which ruu are you going to flash?
[One (M9) General] LTKred:
same issues here. cant flash Telstra RUU. same error :(
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Tell me more information about ur device. Current installed firmware, CID, s-on or s-off.... And which version are you trying to flash.... Plus which method....
[One (M9) General] LTKred:
current firmware from the HTC download screen is 2.9.841.2 (I'm guessing thats the latest one from Telstra OTA i received not long after getting the device about 2 months ago), CID TELST001, S-ON, currently using CM12.1 ROM, with unlocked bootloader, Root, and TWRP.

I'm trying to flash 0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_L50_SENSE70_Telstra_WWE_1.32.841.7_R_Radio_01.01_U11440261_56.01.50303G_3_F_release_425231_signed.zip

downloaded multiple times from different devices and connections, MD5 checks out every time, no issues with the downloads at all.

Trying to use the SD card method.

I've not run into an issue with an RUU like this before on my M7 or M8. It's always been pretty straight forward and simple. But I can't figure this out at all.

i get error:

Failed: -2, 19: fail to flash via downloadzip

Failed: -2, 19: fail to flash via downloadzip

Failed: -2, 19: fail to flash via downloadzip
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
Ok, how did u do to flash via sd card method? Tell me the instructions that u did
[One (M9) General] LTKred:
i did it exact to the instructions that are on post #120 and instructions found on http://venomroms.com/ruu/ for SD Card method.

1) change the downloaded file name to OPJAIMG.zip and put it in the root of ur external sd card ( ur sd card should be 32GB or less and formatted as FAT32)

2) put ur phone into the download mode. Ur phone automatically will find the file and ask u for flashing. Just follow the prompts

ive tried a few times, even formatted the sd card as well and still nothing.

I've even tried the filename with a 0 and O, but no luck :(
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
The first character is zero. If everything is ok and still u can't flash, the only reason is that u are s-on and u can't downgrade ur firmware.

What happened when u go to the download mode?
[One (M9) General] LTKred:
it finds the zip and tells me to press vol up or down to cancel or flash, then it gives me the error i mentioned above a few seconds later.

i might try S-OFF and see how that goes. Are you able to link me to the best method?

Thanks for your help :)
[One (M9) General] Nima78600:
I guess the only reason is being s-on.

As long as I know the only trustworthy method for getting s-off is using sunshine app that costs 25 us dollars. I used this method.
[One (M9) General] LTKred:
yep, being S-ON was the issue. I used SunShine to S-OFF and the flashing worked perfectly.

It starting loading a few things, then restarted back into the OS, but a quick restart back to download mode and it picked up where it left off and finished the RUU flashing. I'm now back to stock Telstra. Thanks again man, appreciate the help and advice! :D

Update for Telstra comimg through
[One (M9) General] TornadoF6:
Has anyone recieved the update to 5.1.1?Telstra device update page says it was due for release on the 26th,but still waiting & checking,nothing yet...
[One (M9) General] TheAvatar:
Does anyone know the correct CID to use for that ROM? I am having an issue with my screen which might need me to go back to full stock for warranty :(

All good, it's optus001 for mine, though the screen seems to have sorted itself out.

Anyone running any of the CM12.1 based ROMS? I cant find any for the himauhl model.
[One (M9) General] iarejohnsmith:
Hey guys, American here. Just thought I'd post in this thread because I bought an M9 on Ebay and it ended up being Australian (labeled "made for Optus" on the packaging, and it came with a funky looking charger ahaha). I checked the frequency bands and was/am pretty sure it should work here in the U.S.

I set it up yesterday - unlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP, got root, got S-Off ($25 but no issues at all!), edited for Super-CID, and flashed International firmware (from the amazing firmware thread) and an International-based ROM (ARHD).

Today went to AT&T store to get a SIM card, but the issue so far is that I'm not getting 4G-LTE signal but only HSPA instead. They said it might just be a turnaround time before the network gets used to it (some searching online suggests the network might need time to get its IMEI), which is what I'm hoping for.

Anybody here successfully get an Australian phone on U.S. LTE?

UPDATE: IT DOESN'T WORK BE WARNED.

Wow I'm really bummed. Turns out I screwed up when looking at the frequency bands. The Australian phone just happens to be missing the ones needed for AT&T 4G LTE in the States.
[One (M9) General] iarejohnsmith:
As you can see in my above post, I'm an American in possession of a mint condition M9 that does not get 4G in the U.S.

Would anyone here like to buy it from me, or does anyone have a friend (mate?) who might want an M9? It's got S-Off and everything and I don't want it to go to waste!
[One (M9) General] phonz:
Bummer with the situation . I hope you find a buyer. Best wishes.

Anyone got an RUU or Stock recovery for Optus?

Hi guys!, i wanted to unroot and flash the stock recovery, but the thing is i cant find the ruu or stock recovery for my firmware version (2.9.710.5). So does anyone have it or know where i can find it?

Would love positive feedback...

Any news about the Marshmallow update? i hope as which bought the m9s outright we dont have to wait for carriers to release the update?
[One (M9) General] GODSPD:
with s-off it is available since early December...
[One (M9) General] vincenzo697:
:confused: I know that, but i don't want to se warranty so i am waiting for official Australian release which i cant understand why is not out yet.;););)
[One (M9) General] GODSPD:
I gave up waiting, could take another few weeks or moths before its officially released, then not every operator will get it at the same time, (Telstra might be first) it was supposed to be rolled out in December and we are now in March... As far as i know you cant void your warranty by s-off as it can always be changed back to s-on (its not like samsungs that once you root, change recovery or kernel the knox e-fuse is tripped for good and flags warranty void status) you should be safe to s-ff if you dont want to wait...
[One (M9) General] TornadoF6:
I have been thinking about rooting my M9 as i have a Telstra post paid phone,and am sick of waiting for the MM update from Telstra.Who knows when they'll release it,it's not even on their device updates page

[One (M9) General] AusX10:
[MENTION=4932610]GODSPD[/MENTION] So with S-OFF you can flash a generic himaul firmware to a himauhl variant? I've unlocked my bootloader but haven't paid for sunshine yet because I wasn't sure this was possible. I need to do something though because as of a week or so ago I can't update cm13...

[One (M9) General] Unikhorn:
Didn't backup my stock recovery cuz im an idiot

Hey guys, I'm kind of new here. So the new marshmallow update for Telstra has been released, but I'm having trouble reverting back to stock recovery. I was pretty stupid to not back that up.

I've been searching through looking applicable RUUs, and there was no luck finding one that was of equal or higher version than the firmware currently running on my phone (which I think is required, or won't work, with s-on at least).

Current setup:

Stock rom, S-ON, TWRP recovery

Telstra carrier (841)

CID: TELST001

Firmware: 2.9.841.5

Radio-01.04_U11440601_71.02.50709G_F

All I could find was: 0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_L50_SENSE70_Telstra_WWE_1.32.841. 7_R_Radio_01.01_U11440261_56.01.50303G_3_F_release _425231_signed.zip which is an older version, and probably doesn't work.

Maybe someone can give me their recovery file? Would that work?

Help please. =(
[One (M9) General] Oridin:
Fairly sure that wont work ... i literally unlocked my bootloader the other day for root access i still have the originaly rom and it says no update for modified device. I tried locking the bootloader again and still no luck.

My guess is we will now have to wait for someone to upload the 6.0 rom??
[One (M9) General] Unikhorn:
My phone can pick up and download the update.

I cant post the screenshot. But it's a 2 step update for marshmallow 6.0. firmware 2.10.841.200. Size is 72.96 mbs

But when I try to install it, it reboots to TWRP, so I'm guessing I need stock recovery to install it. So I decided to install a stock recovery from another region, but when I try to install the update again, it recognises that the recovery fingerprint mismatches, and aborts the update.
[One (M9) General] Heezii:
I see that Telstra has already released marshmallow for the m9.

I got an unlocked and unbranded Australian stock model running on 5.1 and when I check for updates it still says nothing to update/up to date.

Anyone hear of when marshmallow will be released for Australian unlocked m9's?
[One (M9) General] Shuaib_Ahsan:
OTA updates work if the bootloader is unlocked.

You just need to have stock recovery

If someone here could share his stock recovery it'd be great for us.

Tips & Tricks & Patch

Stock Camera & Gallery : Link

Tips & Tricks :

1. You might might feel that the battery consumption is a little high

So to reduce the consumption

Open Settings > Open WiFi > Click on Advanced > Switch off the option " Scanning always available ".

2. If Google Maps is not working for you -

Open Settings > Open Location > Click on Mode > Change to High Accuracy - Then open the app , it may force close then restart the device and the app will work normally.

OR

You may use 8.x.x version of the app, it will cause no problem ( Issue arises only on 9.x.x versions of the app )

3.To enable ART Runtime first you have to disable Xposed because ART does not supports Xposed.

Also some of the apps do not support ART and will not work when ART is enabled.

Open Settings > Developer Options > Select Runtime > Use Art

The phone will reboot and it will take some time as the apps get optimized according to ART.

ART Runtime requires more free space to run properly.When you enable ART the phone memory goes low.

Also make sure that if you install a large no. of apps and then enable ART the phone will boot but it will not be usable and will ask to free up space but nothing will happen so you will be required to flash the ROM again. Just make sure you do not get into this problem.
