Both the links he gave you are T-Mobile. The first one is a flashable zip through download mode through your computer, or by renaming to 0PJAIMG and putting it on a external_sd formatted fat 32 and booting to the bootloader. The second one is a Windows exe that can be run with the phone booted into the system or download mode. You may have to press the volume up if it doesn't start automatically.

If that is truly your CID, then this will not work for you. That CID (T-MOB101) is for T-Mobile DE. This thread and indeed this entire sub forum are for T-Mobile US (T-MOB010).

Since your profile says your carrier is T-Mobile US, I believe you simply typed it in wrong, however, it's very important you have it correct because they are for completely different software builds.

I'm pretty sure I got those mixed up. It is truly a US T-Mo device. Just changed CID - trying again. I think this may have been my problem. Will confirm!

PLEASE HELP, is there an RUU for 6.0 (3.39.531.7) thats a zip so I can download it on my phone? I tried the RUU for 51.1 zip on my T-Mobile HTC One M9 running marshmallow and it didnt let me move on. Please response ASAP.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] jbfountain:
There are threads on XDA to guide you to make one from a RUU.EXE. If you can't find one already made and the process of making one is to daunting for you PM me and on Friday I will have some time and I will make you one. You should be able to find one I would think. Someone usually makes one and shares it shortly after the exe is made available.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] tw39515:
From the venom rom page. just make sure you name it correctly for the m9.

When you download a RUU, it will be packaged in an MSI installer that extracts it to your PC’s TEMP directory. Only there you will find the actual RUU, it’s called the “ARUWizard.exe” and has a lot of files going with it. What you flash to your phone, the payload, is called the “ROM.zip” – often you can find these separately on XDA, extracted from this RUU and renamed to a name matching the RUU. If you wish to flash such a “bare bone RUU.zip” to your phone you can either do so manually with fastboot or place it in an empty RUU structure like I provide in a number of threads on XDA (e.g. here), calling it the “FUU” or Firmware Update Utility. The third way is to place this ROM.zip onto your SDCard, rename it to the relevant phone’s codename (e.g. on the M8 it would be 0P6BIMG.zip), reboot and it will auto-flash.

So I downloaded it but it still has the status as modified, did I do something wrong?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] jbfountain:
I believe that you have to use a RUU.EXE to get the status flag back to Official.

He's trying to get rid of the tampered flag. From what I've heard you can't do that with a RUU zip. He said that he already used the zip you linked but it didn't remove the tampered flag and restore "software status official".

Ya, that's right. I'm trying to return my phone to full stock official, I used the zip file but it didn't take away the tampered flag.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] jbfountain:
It won't open, or just won't do anything after opening? Have you tried running it as Administrator? You may have a corrupt exe? Is your phone recognized by Windows?

Using XDA to unleash the power of Android on my S6 Edge Plus & HTC One M9
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] montesc_xcviii:
Like I double click to open it, it loads to ask for the administrator and I accept it, and it loads for a little and then it stops, I waited for 10 minutes to see if it's still loading but nothing happens. I have downloaded all of the drivers for the phone and adb/fast boot and windows recognizes it but still nothing. Is there anything else that I'm missing or that I'm doing wrong? I downloaded the marshmallow RUU.zip from the one provided earlier, IDK if there's something wrong with it. Please response ASAP
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] montesc_xcviii:
Ok, so I found out what i did wrong and I ran the RUU.exe file, when it finished I loaded to the boot loader but it still says Software Status: Modified, isn't it suppose to go away if I used the .exe file instead of the .zip file of the RUU?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] jbfountain:
That's what I have heard. I personally have never worried about it since I always S-off my HTC phones. Are you trying to turn it in for warranty? What is the reason that you need it to say "Software Status Official"?

Edit: I noticed that you are with T-Mobile. I have never had them give me any problems with warrenty or exchanges when the software status was modified or with the phone S-off.

I talked to a long time T-Mobile store rep when I traded in my S-off, Unlocked bootloader, with a custom rom installed M9 for the S6 Edge Plus (I have since bought another new M9 off Swappa.com), and he told me that as long as the phone turns on, boots, and the screen isn't broken they don't care.

Agreed, and usually someone posts ota files within a day or so of release anyway.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] jbfountain:
Here is what I did to return my M9 to stock so I could update via OTA. I wiped everything except storage, took the nandroid backup I did when I first got my device and restored that. Then I extracted the system.emmc.win from my backup, and after renaming it to system.img I flashed it via fastboot then rebooted the phone. I then rebooted into recovery checked to see if the system option was missing from the mount menu in TWRP, and it was. After that I extracted the recovery.img from the update I had downloaded and flashed it via fastboot. After that it was automatic. I went to software updates, downloaded the update and let it install. Then I did another nandroid backup and rooted the phone again installed Titanium Backup and restored my apps and settings. All good!

If you need any help let me know. I also have the clean backup and system image.

The fact that the encryption keys changed between firmware 3.x and 4.x (as explained in the ReadMe thread, btw.). You need to get back to stock and install the official OTAs since they're not encrypted. Or you wait until someone releases a no wipe/full wipe firmware pack or you use Sneakyghost's instructions in his firmware thread and create your own no wipe/full wipe firmware pack.

Hi all,

I have a T-mobile M9 that I managed to update to 3.39.531.41 after a long and painful weekend.

I'm now trying to update from 3.39.531.41 to 4.27.531.6 with RUU but I get the "132 signature error". The bootloader is currently unlocked, I'm S-ON and I haven't installed any firmware, only the RUU called "RUU_HIMA_UL_M60_SENSE70_TMUS_MR_TMOUS_3.39.531.41.exe" (which I noticed removed TWRP and left me with stock recovery of red triangle, I believe it also removed root)

After reading many threads it seems that I can only get to 4.27.531.6 by sideloading the OTA, but I haven't been able to find a working link, can anyone please help me upload the OTA to go from 3.39.531.41 to 4.27.531.6?

Also, do I need to make any changes to the bootloader (lock using "fastboot oem lock" maybe?) the recovery or even root?

Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide!
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] eddie85u:
sad to see this device is dead and no one can help with OTA update :(
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] The_Walking_Playground:
Hi,

If you flash the firmware from the OTA, or a signed firmware zip from the newer update, that should then allow you to flash the newer RUU without an issue. Try the firmware zip I uploaded here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/832abe1zldm2beu/0PJAIMG_4.27.531.6_firmware_signed.zip?dl=0

Once you flash that (either in RUU mode via fastboot or using the SD card method), you should immediately flash the 4.x RUU, and then you should be up-to-date.

TWP

P.S. There's no need to lock your bootloader or unroot or do anything like that. The RUU will wipe everything clean.

I know most of this stuff and adb pretty well.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] Captain_Throwback:
There's no way to pull stock recovery without being rooted, and there's currently no way to root without custom recovery. So, unless someone has a device for your variant that they received S-OFF and can dump the stock recovery for you, you have no way to get it.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] jcorv58:
So I'm just stuck with this one? I guess I'm fine with that, only reason is the tint, in which I'm hearing is on multiple devices anyway. There'd be no way to return to fully stock it sounds before the 7 day time frame (without pure luck). I just have to cancel my order :/
[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] Captain_Throwback:
You could always just install a different stock recovery onto it. It's not as if anyone would really know unless they tried to take an OTA with it.

I think there's an international version floating around in those forums.

The stock recoveries for the M9 variants really aren't any different - they all accomplish the same purpose - to install an OTA. The only difference is the default.prop parameters included therein.

You could use a tool like Android Image Kitchen to unpack the stock recovery, edit the default.prop to match your current build.prop (specifically the ro.build.fingerprint), repack and it should be usable to install an OTA for your variant.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M9)] Captain_Throwback:
I doubt they'll look at it. Like I said, the international version stock recovery should be fine. It's a signed image so there shouldn't be any red text, and it'll function fine as long as nobody tries to use it to install an OTA.
