Works ok for me. Flash ROM + Pico Gapps, then boot. Then back into recovery to install everything else (in my case a de-bloat script, Super-SU, Xposed and Agni).

If anything other than just ROM + Gapps is installed on first go, it doesn't boot (for me).

I also didn`t notice any boot problems - with or without cleaning /data. I always test at least boot, before I publish a build. You have to do some debugging, if you want it fixed...

Btw - could someone explain me what is so special on SuperSu? Since I am using CM I never needed any external apps to handle root.

I just prefer it. I like having an app to handle the requests (usually set to grant all which I then monitor through the logs). Always used it, probably always will! Can see why most would prefer to let CM deal with it though.

What is this MR ROM you speak of? There is no such thing as MR ROM for the Z4 Tablet. Afaik we only have AOSP 5.02, 5.1.1, 6.0 and the latest stock 5.0.2 ROM. Flashing anything else would likely end up in it hanging, like you experience.

With the current state of ROMs, I advice to just flash the official stock ROM, benefit from it's stability and full copmpatibility, SuperSU it, try Xposed (v79, sdk21, arm64) and freeze/uninstall system bloatware with an app like Titanium Backup.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KamilaS:
First of all, I really have to apologize for making this thread - after all the effort people here put to ensure that everyone could be able to handle their phones safely, after many hours of trials and errors, I have to ask for your help.

HTC One M9 that I'm dealing with here is S-On. I need to get the latest OTA update for it to update it with Android 6.0 - so forcing the update will be completely good solution.

Bootloader is currently unlocked and the phone is rooted.

It has currently firmware version 1.32.401.15 (Europe)

I am currently not able to flash the stock firmware I found here for my version through SD card, I'm guessing that one of the previously mentioned conditions could be prerequisite for this to work properly.

Any help would be extremely appreciated.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
[MENTION=7211140]KamilaS[/MENTION] you have the WWE edition of the One M9 as far as I can see from your firmware number. I'd advise to download the RUU for your device and flash it via PC to go back to stock and apply the OTAs up to Android M.

Here you go:

1) download this RUU

2) reboot to bootloader and relock it

3) apply above downloaded *.exe

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KamilaS:
Thanks a lot for such fast replies :)

Am I understanding then correctly, that locking again bootloader will be necessary to flash firmware?

In such case, will "fastboot oem lock" command in download mode be sufficient?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Re-locking is only needed if you want to flash a RUU.exe. The fastboot oem lock command would be sufficent in that case. But as said before I wouldn't recommend using the 1.32.401.17 RUU (which is the only RUU.exe for the SKU 401).

TL;DR: Don't relock.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KamilaS:
I am not eager to use executable file to flash the firmware, .zip option would be great - either through SD card or fastboot commands. But seeing as I keep failing with the update through both options I am assuming, that I'm stil doing something wrong. Are there any other prerequisites that I haven't yet consider? Is relocking OEM not necessary then when using ZIP options?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flippy498:
Relocking is definitely not needed. Did you follow the instructions in my google sheet? If yes what kind of error was stated when you tried to flash the RUU in Download Mode? What kind of error was stated when the fastboot flash failed?
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KamilaS:
I have just tried once again with the RUU.zip file that I have found. I can see that your google sheet points to another RUU.zip file, that I will try next on the SD card and see if I have better luck with it.

In the meantime, this is the output that I have from trying update in fastboot:

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5m4r7ph0n36uru:
Which fastboot.exe are you using? Or better did you use the htc_fastboot? The first line of the error regarding max download size happens quite often if someone uses fastboot from Android sdk instead of htc_fastboot. htc_fastboot can be found in sneakyghost's thread.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KamilaS:
Ok, thank you very much! With your help I was able to finally figure out the way that worked on my device :)

I followed your suggestion and used htc_fastboot - as expected, the fastboot that I have used so far with other devices was not the best solution here and I haven't really realized before that people could be using different one.

Together with the RUU file that you have linked in your google sheet (that for some reason could not be copied on SD card) I have managed to install firmware successfully on the device and now I'm installing the latest OTA update :)

Hello,

I have a strange problem with my phone. I use the original flip cover case. When the phone is upside down (screen facing down) and a call comes. I pick up the phone and open the flip cover, I can see who is calling but the touch screen do not respond. I can not control the call, I have to press the power button twice so the screen closes and opens, then I gain control on the screen.

This problem does not occur when I use the phone without flip cover case or when I leave the phone with screen facing up.

Do you have this problem with your phone?
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] md6:
I have this problem with all roms that I tried. But when I use an auto screen on off program for flip cover phones, my problem solved. The program make my phone awake all the time, it seems disturbing at the beginning but I saw that the battery consumption of my kitkat rom decreased while my phone is idle (screen off). Normally my kitkat rom uses 4-5% per hour when screen off but with this program it decreased to 1.5-2% per hour. So I also found an indirect solution for my kitkat rom that do not go into deep sleep :)
[Micromax Canvas Magnus A117] md6:
Also I noticed that the cpu usage is high (1209 Mhz) while the screen is off, so I used a cpu tuner program to reduce it while screen is off. And the battery consumption reduced to nearly %1 per hour while screen is off.

A rom developer can use this and write a code that awake the phone but not using battery like auto screen on off program.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doubletaco:
I'm going to preface this with the nagging feeling I may be completely off-base with how I think OTA updates while rooted/custom recovery works, but here goes anyway.

I got my 6P at launch, and immediately went and rooted it. Everything's been fine except for the constant notification that there's an OTA update available. I've got TWRP right now, so just attempting to reboot through the system's standard update installation doesn't do anything.

I thought I'd just grab the manual updates and flash them from the web. I was positive I grabbed the right Before-to-After .zip, but trying to flash it through TWRP just results in it failing. Nothing breaks on the device, it just boots and runs normally, but I'd still like to get these updates installed.

What I'm currently thinking is that instead of chasing down build number update zips, I'd just use the downloaded one specifically and attempt to install it via TWRP. This poses the question:

1. Where does Marshmallow download OTA updates to when it attempts to flash them when you reboot?

and then the follow-ups:

2. Can I even do this via TWRP, or is there a different process that I should use that I've somehow totally missed?

3. Post-OTA update, will I need to re-root? (Not a big deal, just wanting to set my expectations)

Huge thanks in advance for any info you all can provide.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pain-N-Panic:
I don't mean to be rude, but there are many threads already posted about this subject. A little searching and you would have found your answer.

Second, you cannot flash OTA's via recovery. You need to download the latest factory images from Google. Then go to Heisenberg's flash/root/unlock tutorial in the General forum and follow section 10 of his guide exactly as he states.
