HD install, now M9 boot to bootloader, recovery only

I have a (once before AT&T) M9 I attempted to flash with HD 20. I unlocked it (S-ON), flashed twrp 2.8.7, and installed HD 20. The phone now boots only to bootloader or to twrp. And, no, I didn't backup the oem os before installing HD. Groan.

I really have been scouring the posts here for more than a week. I'm sure the answer is buried somewhere, but I'm really hoping someone can point me to a direction I can try to get this phone to come alive again. Any clues would be much appreciated.

Kelvin.

Are you on MM firmware? If not, you need to roll back using a RUU and take the OTA, then root and flash ARHD 20.
[One (M9) Android Development] sergerdar:
Hi dears.

This rom for m9 sprint support?

[One (M9) Android Development] shezaad879:
I had the same problem. Was unable to find a fix after searching so I tried a full wipe and reflashed ARHD 20 but no luck.

I then isolated it to choosing to restore the phone apps and settings from a lollipop backup from google at initial startup and I was able to reproduce it, so I did a clean flash and set up the phone as new.

I am not 100% sure if this the solution but it worked for me. I was also lucky as my previous phone was an M7 and I was going to set up this one as a new phone anyway, but since I just received it I was playing around with it.

I suspect that Google restored some settings which made this incompatible or something?

Hope this helps.
[One (M9) Android Development] BillTheCat:
Perhaps this explains my issue with decreased audio volume... has anyone noticed that?

You might want to flash a kernel compatible with your carrier!
[One (M9) Android Development] hellforgedheart:
The new base just came out yesterday. If you know where to get a kernel for it I'm very open to receiving links.

It's likely that each ROM developer is going to want to rebase to the latest build anyway. I'll be posting a System dump when I get home.
[One (M9) Android Development] crypking:
Just wanna update my situation as it is resolved and the solution: S-OFF

I was on 3.38 with twrp 3.0 and SuperSU 2.65 and flashing ARHD 20.0 (which is on 3.35) was messed up as my SIM card wasn't working and signing into Google account was not working.

I restored my nandroid backup, installed SuperSU 2.65 again and then bought S-OFF, which allowed me to change my cid to HTC__001 and mid to 0PJA10000. Next i flashed a nandroid that someone uploaded of 3.35.401.12 and once that was done I flashed ARHD 20.0 and boom its done. Basically from what I understand you can't flash ARHD 20.0 if the firmware you are on is lower (i failed to go from 3.38 to 3.35). Also my SKU was 1500 but ARHD is 401 so that might be a factor as well. So yea S-OFF is great :)
[One (M9) Android Development] kelvand:
Thank you for the guidepost! I'm nearly certain I'm not on marshmallow, which would explain why the install of ARHD hosed the boot. However, to go back to a RUU, I understand I need to S-OFF. But to S-OFF, Sunshine appears to be the only way to do it on the M9. And Sunshine requires an OS on which to install their app; I don't have a working OS. Is it possible to S-OFF through fastboot?
[One (M9) Android Development] cmcmyers:
I'm guessing flashing back 14.0 would be the way to go...
[One (M9) Android Development] kelvand:
Brilliant. Thank you! I've got a working phone again.
[One (M9) Android Development] shezaad879:
I cannot compare with Lollipop as I went straight to MM when I got the phone. But I have noticed on boot that the boot sound is loud and then it just drops. The phone audio is still loud for me but I cannot say if it was louder in Lollipop.
[One (M9) Android Development] BillTheCat:
Exactly the symptoms I'm having. The in-call volume is fine, but ring tone and media seems attenuated
[One (M9) Android Development] Quadrider10:
I've downloaded this ROM 2 times and tried to flash. Each time it's given me an error saying zip is corrupted. What's going on here? I'm s-off on latest firmware, and have latest twrp recovery.
[One (M9) Android Development] cmcmyers:
You're welcome... Glad that helped....

[One (M9) Android Development] pwhitt:
hi! i'm really interested in trying out this rom - but ran into a problem...

i just unlocked my m9 and all seems OK, having gone through a couple stock verizon roms w/ twrp recovery while playing around with it.

i used the latest twrp to install the marshmallow revolution hd rom, and aroma started up, and seemed to go well. i opted to wipe user data, clicked through the installer and it said it went successfully.

at the end, aroma indicated it might boot loop a couple times. however, after reboot, it came directly back to bootloader and stayed there. i rebooted many times, and the OS would not boot.

so... what gives? i tried flashing the firmware to match the version concurrent with the MM revolution rom, that yielded a code 10 in adb. i tried to flash it a couple more times, same results.

right now i've gone back to a verizon deodexed lollipop rom. i'd like to try this out though...

help?
[One (M9) Android Development] daniel1823:
Ok guys I just had some issues but I got them all straightened out so I'll pass my knowledge onto y'all. So I did a full wipe before installing 20. Rom ran good for a while then it started lagging and freezing on me. Today I went out to microcenter and got me a 32gb sdcard because my 4gb was too small. So I migrated the 32 as system storage. Which gave me 60gb total. Now the fun part. So xelement came out with version 4 to support 6.0 mm. So I go and try to install it and twrp 3.0.0-0 wouldn't see any of my storage. So after a hour of looking around I found out they came out with 3.0.0-1. After flashing that twrp now sees my storage properly. Then I was able to flash x4. Now I have no issues so far.
[One (M9) Android Development] Quadrider10:
Funny got the rim to install, but now I'm having an issue where everything is leggy and stuttering. Can't figure what's causing it. I know ots not an app, cause it started minutes after I flashed the rim and was going through the setup process.

hi guys,

some have tried the Elementalx kernel with ARHD 20.0?
[One (M9) Android Development] 1337jay:
I am using this combination right now and it is flawless.
[One (M9) Android Development] Quadrider10:
Alright, let me explain this a little better. I'm on firmware 3.35.617.12. Which is the dev edition of MM. I'm running the latest version of TWPR (3.0.0-1). On stock MM, I don't have these stutters or anything, but I downloaded arhd 20, clean wiped and clean flashed everything, and before I can even get the initial setup process done, the phone is slow, laggy, and stutters like crazy! Even after multiple reboots and cache wipes. Still lags and stutters. I've never had this problem with arhd. Any ideas how I can fix this?
[One (M9) Android Development] daniel1823:
If your lagging read my post that was before your guys. Install elementalx it fixes most of the issues.
[One (M9) Android Development] Unoath:
When I installed v 20.0 everything went great. What I am stuck on is the Google Account Verification. I have never encountered this before. I've always been able to log in. I am trying to use the account that was last used but it still tells me that "This device was reset. To continue, sign in with a Google Account that was previously used on this device". I dont know what to do. I tried my M7 and I logged in just fine on that one. Could it be the firmware or should I reinstall the rom?

After I type in the password it then says "Please sign in using one of the owner's accounts for this device." Do I have to wait 72 hours for it to work?

Would I have to restore my phone back to official ATT RUU?
[One (M9) Android Development] jabr0ni:

Hi guys,

Just wanted to thank mike1986 for the last 5 years of roms I have been using from him and also everyone's comments.

All I can say is follow the instructions on the tin and it just works. Updated today to firmware 3.35.401.12 and arhd 20.0

Thanks all

The best way to find out is to try by yourself and compare the roms on your device with your App's installed and your normal usage, what fits for you most.
[One (M9) Android Development] MrDuvet:
Is there a way to run this rom, when not on the most recent firmeware? My carrier (Telstra Australia) won't upgrade me to 3.x firmware. I'm still on Lollipop with 2.xx. It seems the ROM won't boot even after full wipe and upgrade to most recent twrp -.-

Any suggestions?
[One (M9) Android Development] cmcmyers:
No, you need the MM Firmware for it to work.
[One (M9) Android Development] MrDuvet:
So basically s-off and supercid are my only choice, right?

Correct. Once you do that, you can upgrade to whatever firmware version you want. Note that you may encounter problems running a WWE radio on a specific network.

[One (M9) Android Development] wickedmx:
The only way to really free your phone from Telstra's lacklustre support is S-OFF and super CID. I'm on Optus and did the same thing as it lets you upgrade and downgrade firmware and test whichever ROMs you like the look of.

Once you're S-OFF, just take note of your original Telstra CID before change it in case you need to revert for warranty.

Tried to install SuperSU 2.68 via TWRP 3.0.0.2 followed the instructions waited patiently as it said took a while and would run through a few bootloops, after 1/2 hour and probably 25 loops decided to abort and then had to get back in recovery wipe everything and start over, bad boy for not making a nandroid right before trying the 2.68 install. Come on ARHD 21
[One (M9) Android Development] foggy69:
I was already running 2.67, does Super SU need to be updated incrementally??

The method I used to update was to wipe the cache in fastboot, I then used TWRP 3.0.0.2 to flash the zip file 'BETA-SuperSU-v2.68-20160228150503', and then wiped the cache and dalvik cache before rebooting.

[One (M9) Android Development] XR01:
I flashed the latest Revolution ROM, and I also tried ViperROM. I also tried installing each's boot.img but nothing booted. I got the M9 a few days ago and the highest Android I installed was 5.1. I asked in a previous post if I needed to flash Marshmallow stock, and now I'm guessing that's the firmware you refer to. Is the firmware based on the last official update I received? Or can I check that somewhere? I tried the latest Unlocked RUU from HTC and the program doesn't do anything, it just asks for permission from Windows. Does it not work on Windows 8 or 10?
[One (M9) Android Development] cmcmyers:
Flash the 3.35.401.12 Firmware.. Its not gonna boot on a Lollipop Firmware.. It needs the MM Firmware...
[One (M9) Android Development] XR01:
Aha! That was it. I've been reading a lot about the M9 since I got it, but I never noticed in any thread that the official updates had to be done up to the matching ROM that you want to install. I figured the ROM contained all the firmware, and that's why it wasn't mentioned. That should be one of the requirements for installing the ROM, and it the Aroma installer should check the firmware, and give a warning if it doesn't match. Anyhow, thanks for your time. I recommend the original post include that you must have firmware updated to 3.35.401.12.

Hi Mike,

I have been using your roms since the sensation days and love them.

It's time to give back for all your hard work and would like to give the 20Gb of server space you require.

My upload speed at the moment is between 15 and 17 Mbit.

Just let me know and I will sort it out for you.

Installation Problems

Just flashed this rom to my phone using TWRP. After installing rebooted and it went through the verifying applications and then after that all I see is the HTC logo on a white screen. It looks like I am in the OS because I can raise lower the volume using the phones keys. I can shut down and reboot using the phones power button.

MD5 verified the zip file.

Before this I was running stock t-mobile android 6. Installed via TWRP 3.0.0-2. Also did wipe via TWRP before and after installing ROM.

Any advice on what the issue could be?
[One (M9) Android Development] shezaad879:
Try using TWRP 2.8 (the latest one on 2.8, can't remember the exact number) and make sure you do not install super su when prompted by TWRP after flashing the ROM.
[One (M9) Android Development] cloves:
Thanks for the reply shezaad!

After unlocking my phone via (htc dev method), I installed TWRP, then booted into recovery and installed superSU v2.68 which caused bootloop. I then went back into TWRP and installed an older version after reading newer was causing problems. Installed superSU v2.65.

I know it has been stated a few times on this thread and in the ARHD ROM read me to say no when TWRP asks to install superSU. But in my case it never did.

Could this be the issue? That I installed my own superSU before the ROM?
[One (M9) Android Development] diamond09:
Just install the rom again, it has the correct Super SU already built in.
[One (M9) Android Development] cloves:
I will try uninstalling the superSU and re-installing the rom.
[One (M9) Android Development] shezaad879:
As diamond09 said. Try that and if this still doesn't work for you, do a clean flash. The ROM is already rooted and you don't need to worry about installing supersu etc
