Bricked need help

Hello everyone,

when trying to root my A9 I have made a mistake and it remained in a bootloop. I suppose I accidentally wiped the system partition.

Attempts to flash a stockrom failed, see the error copy.

When flashed on CM13 no error message appeared, however, it is still not possible to boot. I hope you have a few ideas how I can revive my a9.

System Info and error followed.

[HTC One A9] AcidNoteZ:
You used the wrong RUU, search for the right one.

Software number has to be identical to yours.
[HTC One A9] FPS_Doge:
Hm, I couldn't find teh exact same RUU, just the old ones 1.27....
[HTC One A9] alray:
Then you need s-off to flash the old one. When s-on you can only flash the same version or newer than your actual main. You should also edit your other post to remove your imei #, never post this # on the forums.
[HTC One A9] FPS_Doge:
Thx! I had read that s-off is only achievable through sunchine, but it needs a working system ... so how can i reach s-off state?
[HTC One A9] alray:
flash a stockish rom using twrp, use sunshine then go back to stock with the RUU.
[HTC One A9] FPS_Doge:
Like one of these in this thread?
[HTC One A9] alray:
No not a RUU, a ROM. Look in the development section, you'll find some. :svetius:
[HTC One A9] FPS_Doge:
Tried to flash several ROMs found in the dev threads, but it didn't work yet. I tried the rom.img and the zips ... but if i just flash the rom it stuck at boot. If i flash the zips it keeps telling me "update-binary" is missing, but it isn't.
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
If all failes then you may use xtc2clip

which one? Send me the link via PM (since you can't post links yet)

Sprint update 1.60.651.4

I don't think this has been posted here or anywhere i could find on here(not that i looked long) so here is the RUU plus other stock files for the most recent update:

*Updated*

Sprint Stock 1.60.651.4

https://1drv.ms/f/s!AtVcVcbLOGTdgP9-e2NAN2fNHHIKVQ
[HTC One A9] FPS_Doge:
Until now everything failed ... so what is this xtc2clip you are talking about?
[HTC One A9] alray:
Xtc2clip is a box to s-off your phone. Not cheap at all if your going to s-off only one phone.
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
Please google for it. Also there exists a forum for xtc2clip user.

And alray is right because the costs but sometimes xtc2clip is the last chance for 'unbricking'
[HTC One A9] Bond246:
Hello,

is anyone out there who is still on version 1.62.161.1 and would upload this signed stock recovery or maybe also the whole RUU?

Seems to be not found anywhere out there.

After that i can post the files for 1.62.161.2.

Thanks and good week,

Hello,

can anyone who have HTC One A9 Sprint v1.57.651.1+ please make raw dump of internal memory (emmc ). At least first 1167 MB (2392030 blocks) is needed.

I'm trying to revive hardbricked phone and booting from sd card is the last opportunity.

There are no cases for such recovery for now, so it is important to figure out if it is possible. Link to topic I created.

HELP HTC one a9

I recently updated my HTC One A9 to the new Marshmallow 6.01 version and now the wifi does not work at all (missing wifi module (8)) and the battery is at 4000%. My software number is 1.56.709.70, i believe this is the taiwan variant but it is unlocked. How do I fix this? Please help, do I flash an ruu or something? How do I know which ruu works for this phone?

Thanks
[HTC One A9] alray:
You need to use a x.xx.709.x ruu. Downgrading requires s-off.

why htc does not release security patch updates to A9? i barely believe that this phone get android 8 update and other sense updates like htc 10.
[HTC One A9] alray:
I don't know and its off topic here :p

My guess is that they are working on the N release and don't really care about security patches for now.

you mean 7 aka Nougat?
[HTC One A9] brsclkr:
nope i exactly mean 8. its already confirmed a9 get 7, but i dont think htc give any update for this phone after android 7 :crying:
[HTC One A9] alray:
I think its a little to soon to speculate on something that should take place in late 2017...

hi guys, i write from Italy.

i bought a 32gb/3gb A9 for my wife, it had .708 rom version:

HIA_AERO_UHL

HTC Asia HK
modelid: 2PQ910000
cidnum: HTC__622

already unlocked bootloader,S-OFF and superCID. flashed this .401 RUU:

HIA_AERO_UHL

HTC Europe
modelid: 2PQ910000
cidnum: HTC__001

all fine but she didn't get a single OTA since there, not a single security patch or whatever else.

can i convert it to Unlocked/Developer (.617) one? i see model id is different.

HIA_AERO_UL

HTC USA Unlocked
modelid: 2PQ912000
cidnum: BS_US001

which one should get updates first?

1.65.708.2 software RUU

Hello all, I have a query on behalf of a friend (Yuki):

I have wiped my system by mistake and now I cannot boot into my phone again. I would like to get either the link to download the 1.65.708.2 software RUU or any other method to get an unrooted Official Rom back for my Hong Kong 32Gb HTC One A9. Could anyone help me with this issue?
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
No such Rom yet. If you was able to wipe system you have s-off state and after altering cid you should be able to flash any RUU from OP. Look for you matching ROM: UHL, UL or WHL
[HTC One A9] andrgr:
Hi, this is my first post in this forum. Yesterday i received my german htc one a9, i'm austrian and it works with my austrian sim card, but i have to create the apn from my provider.

When the phone starts and power off, then i can see a german bootanimation from the provider O2. With WiFi i startet the OTA Update and my software number now is: 1.56.206.70

After that i tried the same RUU number yesterday from this thread and installed it over the sd card. It worked, but it is exactly the same ROM as before, because i am a newbie with HTC i tought with the correct number (206) i will get a Stock Rom Update for my version.

So today i unlocked the bootloader and did the same again, but with the same result.

I'm really sorry, but who can tell my what i can do, that i can install a Stock Rom on my device or to change the startup and power off animation.

As far as i know, i can only use RUU's with the correct number from the provider, so in my case it's 206.

It would be very nice, if you guys can help me to have a stock phone without prodiver animations and apps.

Thank you very much and sorry for my bad english.

Best regards
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
Without s-off you can only flash x.206.xx signed ruu.

If you get sunshine you are able to s-off and flash any ruu you want (after changing cid).

Take a look in your info at download-mode and select your phone-typ (whl/uhl...) and download your preferred ruu from op
[HTC One A9] andrgr:
Dear Jochen, thank you for your answer. Now i read the cid from my phone and now i'm more confused then before.

bootloader cid: O2___001

What CID should i write with S-OFF?

download mod:

*** unlocked ***

htc_hiaeuhl PVT S-ON

LK-1.0.0.0000

OS-1.56.206.70

Jan 25 2016

Next i will download sunshine and then will do S-off.

Can you tell me what CID i should use then when i'm able to change it?

I saw a number called Super-CID, don't know if this is the one i need? 111111

Sorry for my newbie questions, i searched many hours since yesterday and i only can make it step by step.

After i have changed CID in to the number you hopefully will tell me i can download the 1.56.401.70 HTC Europe and flash with SD as i have done before, ok.

Thank you very very much.
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
You can find cid information at any ruu that is listed. cid is corresponding to ruu
[HTC One A9] andrgr:
Ok, thank you Jochen, now it's clear. When i want HTC Europe Stock Rom, then i have to write one of the CID's in my phone, ok.

Now i downloaded Sunshine and installed it to the phone. At the test (didn't purchased it yet) i get a message that temproot is unable with the Error "No Root found".

So i have to root the phone before i can use Sunshine, is this correct? Or do i have other options?

Again, thank you very very much.
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
That's right. First flash twrp 3. 0.2.0 for hiae (fastboot flash recovery twrp 3...), then istall via twrp systemless root (after backing up boot, System, System Image) . Install superSU from playstore and you were good
[HTC One A9] andrgr:
Ok perfect!
[HTC One A9] alray:
BTW supercid (11111111) is like a golden key. You can write this one and it will work for all ruu
[HTC One A9] andrgr:
Thank you, i took the THC__001 for the Europe stock firmware, but thank you.

By the way, with Super CID does the phone get OTa Upates or not? Thank you.
[HTC One A9] malikadnanm:
is there any way to flash just the baseband? i have att model that i s-off and running unlocked newest RUU but my internet keeps dropping. i dont know what the problem is
[HTC One A9] etoy:
i flashed HTC_Europe RUU (1.56.401.70) to my wife's A9 using SuperCID but she never received a single OTA update
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
There is no update availeable - not yet
[HTC One A9] etoy:
strange that they didn't release a single update, even for just monthly google security patches
[HTC One A9] andrgr:
I have a little problem with my A9. Is it possible to change the standart name from the camera pictures? Standart now is picture 1, picture 2 and so on. I would prefer the date and time as name. Can i do this with the A9? Maybe with a different RUU? I have 1.56.206.70.

Thank you very much.
[HTC One A9] JochenP:
I think not possible. You have to patch the App
[HTC One A9] :
Installed stock rom doesn't find updates

Hi, I installed 1.56.401.70 on my HTC A9 via micro-sd since this is the device I have

HTC Europe

odelid: 2PQ910000

cidnum: HTC__034

It all went well but after reboot I noticed that it doesn't find any updates and states that all software is up to date even though security patch level is 01.12.2015 for example. I did: All apps -> Settings -> About -> Software updates -> Check now.

The official HTC website states that the latest version is: 1.57.617.52.

I installed this RUU because I needed a firmware update in order to install latest Cyanogenmod nightlies. The phon was at 1.10.401.7 and refused to install CM due to a kernel update;

Is there a way I can get the phone to the latest firmware (without having to use HTC Sync Manager which I can't use with my linux box and which gave me a soft brick when I tried at a friend's house who has Windows 7)?

Thanks

Hey all. Just got a One A9, and the firmware version is 1.27.617.2. I did a quick google search but haven't seen the firmware anywhere. There is no branded software on it, though it should be at&t. Android version is 6.0. It says no updates are available. Am I missing something or is my phone not really at&t branded? I was expecting the usual bloatware but there is none.
[HTC One A9] alray:
.617 is "HTC USA unlocked" and At&t is .502. Maybe your phone was converted to .617 (if you're not the first owner).
[HTC One A9] ClearD:
Well that's excellent. I didn't even try to purchase an unlocked one, was going to s-off and supercid anyway. Nice to know I can stick with what I've already done for now. :) Thanks for the reply!

[HTC One A9] JochenP:

After googling a lot I was not able to answer the question: Does the radio number in the RRU file have to match my radio?

In other words, can I flash the 1.56.401.70 RRU on the following phone without bricking my radio?

(bootloader) kernel: lk

(bootloader) product: htc_hiaeuhl

(bootloader) version: 1.0

(bootloader) version-main: 1.10.401.7

(bootloader) boot-mode: download

(bootloader) mid: 2PQ910000

(bootloader) cid: HTC__034

Thank you! Martin
[HTC One A9] alray:
Radio version doesn't matter. Cid and mid must match, version main of the ruu you want to flash must be same or newer than your actual version. So yes you can flash it.
[HTC One A9] burrima:
Thank you alray!

Thank you very much alray, it worked like a charm. And now, after the upgrade from 1.10.401.7 to 1.56.401.70 I was even able to flash CM-13 without going s-off. Have a good day! Martin

[HTC One A9] alray:
There might be more than one device connected to your computer (or an emulator running on your computer e.g bluestacks) reporting incorrect data about your battery. run "adb devices" and "fastboot devices" to see if there is anything else than your phone detected by your computer. If yes you should be able to specify on which device you want to flash the ruu using the -s option in your commands e.g: "fastboot -s serial_number_of_your_phone flash zip file_name.zip" or simply disconnect/uninstall any interfering devices/emulators from your computer.

btw no pm please (as stated in red in my sig) ;)

What ruu are you tring to flash an what is your "fastboot getvar all" ?

Can I flash this with twrp?
[HTC One A9] alray:
HTC, in exception of USA carriers, are not officially releasing their RUU which mean all other RUU found in this thread came from other sources (leaked ruu, paid website, etc...). Almost all RUU listed at post #1 where downloaded from a paid website, ir-file.com. As explained in post #61 (and some other posts as well) maintaining this list up to date unfortunately involves money. Many members (see end of post 1) contributed to this collection by giving link of leaked RUU or donating money to download directly from ir-file.com. Newer RUU were not added to the collection since there is no $ left and the account used on ir-file has expired/reached max download limit.

You can download 1.58.709.1 directly from ir-file.com http://ir-file.com/show.php?token=12287825

For people who still need it and didn't feel like downloading the ruu.exe and nabbing the zip from it.

1.12.617.6 RUU

I did flash it earlier on my device, which is the US unlocked version, and it worked.

I'm still S-On.

It has to be flashed with htc_fastboot, which I attached to this post.

Download it, throw it into your adb folder, reboot to fastboot mode, and then type:

fastboot oem rebootRUU

From that menu, simply enter:

htc_fastboot flash zip <rom.zip>

Let it do its thing, and then you're all set.
[HTC One A9] Eluder79:
Just wanted to state that the RUU worked fine after using the correct Model ID. The unlocked version uses the same as ATT evidently... which isn't uncommon for HTC.
