Is there a way to pull the firmware off of this zip and flash the radio image off of it. The last radio that was released has been terrible for my phone where i live. thanks for the help i tried to do a search to do it myself...lol

I'm trying to return my phone to stock to sell it - I flashed the full stock firmware from this thread successfully, but when trying to push the RUU I get all kinds of errors. First I tried doing it from the normal ADB directory (i.e. not HTC_fastboot commands) and got:

I would try to put it on the SD card and load it from Download Mode but the phone is bootlooping and I cannot get it to a point where the SD card is being read by my PC. I don't have an external reader. I was previously running this ROM without issue.

I tried the "factory reset" from the Download Mode screen and it did not change anything.

Yes, you must be s-off, and flash the full RUU otherwise you will risk bricking. You may have to do factory reset in stock recovery to remove encryption. Personally I have only gone back to1.85.605.9.

I just want to confirm, before wasting time, that the latest verizon RUU (2.41.605.18 from the first post) will restore full functionality (advanced calling, etc) to my Verizon phone?

I had previously understood that one had to use a MM RUU, then take OTA's to current version to restore full functionality in Nougat, but I think that was before any Nougat RUU existed. I'd rather avoid all the updates if possible, but don't want to do anything twice either, so just looking for clarification.

Thanks in advance for confirmation/direction.

All three of the most recent RUUs (2.41.605.18, 2.41.605.12, 1.85.605.9) are giving me "Zip file is corrupt!" errors in TWRP. Tried re-downloading, even on different machines. Running the firmware including TWRP 3.1.1-0 from this post:

Okay, I flashed the latest RUU with method 3. It gave me an error 90, flushed, then rebooted, and on the second try it couldn't flash the sensor_hub.img. It would go from 0% and between 90% and 100% then try to flash sensor_hub.img again. Eventually, it killed the process and finished up, saying this:

It was stuck in bootloop, but it's in download mode right now. I'm thinking of trying to flash it again with an earlier version of the RUU, would that make sense? Thanks so much for all of your help, guys.

I checked in this thread where someone else had the same problem. It sounded like his device booted, but the sensors didn't work. My gyroscope has been broken for months, but it hasn't caused it to bootloop before. Is this the cause of my problem?

**Edit**

I followed the op's instructions and obtained at fat32 sdcard to load it on. It gave me the same error, but it ended up booting into the verizon rom. Gyroscope is still broken.

My cid is vzw__001 i found some htc__001 recoveries but i'm not sure if it'll flash or more importantly i'm concerned if verizon would be able to tell if that's not the right recovery and accuse me of tampering with the phone since i'm sending this one back
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] santod040:
If you flashed an RUU, you already have the appropriate stock recovery for the software version you flashed...

No need to flash another.

You're probably just not familiar with entering stock recovery. :¡

[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Light1984:
I believe firmware will only show in download mode (reset, hold power+volume down). The software version is what the base used for the ROM is. Check in download mode and let me know what it says.

[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
This will do the trick, just be forewarned it DOES wipe your "internal SD"

You will stay SOFF (that's permanent, unless you decide to turn it back ON)

Once you have RUU'd make sure your volte works in the stock rom, then reinstall TWRP.

Then flash your rom of choice, then your root preference (SuperSU or Magisk), although I believe most come with magisk as default.

Good Luck

I am s-off and unlocked (VZM) still running MM software 1.85.605.8. Im looking to take unroot SuperSu and give Magisk a try.

My question is, do I RUU before or after I unroot SuperSU?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
If you RUU, it will unroot you by default. You can try unrooting, but I am certain you will need a boot image to flash prior to flashing magisk. Why is it you are not on N? Think xposed even works somewhat now on nougat.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Eljefe87:
I immediately rooted my phone when I got it few months ago because of it not being Nougat. Made it way easier when I s-off/unlocked. Ive been getting OTA updates and ignoring them for over a month or so fearing my phone would do what I wanted to do if I went to Nougat. I actually want to run xposed, which is the main reason I want magisk vs SuperSu. What would be an easier option at this point though? Taking all suggestions.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
So my opinion is this, take it with a grain of salt. I'd go to the xposed nougat forum and find out if the xposed mods you want work on nougat. (Keep in mind ANY version of xposed breaks safetynet) which is the main reason many want magisk.

If you want to move to nougat, flash the .23 ruu in the vzw specific forum (I'm OP), and go from there.

If you would prefer MM, id just RUU to .9, and go from there.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Eljefe87:
Never thought to just RUU to .9.

Thats actually a great idea, thank you. I'm still a sceptic about going to Nougat on this device. I have an S6 on Nougat and I absolutely despised it...and the fact I couldn't root it anyways smh.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
Nougat is completely rootable on the 10. I prefer it for battery life, and the Bluetooth works better on my head unit. But I get that MM everything works too. Make sure you delete the OMADM stuff so it doesn't bug you to update to nougat all the time.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Eljefe87:
Yeah, battery life on the 10 is kinda sketchy. Definitely going to get titanium pro and freeze OMADM. Haven't seen anything about actually deleting it. Hmm..
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] aer0zer0:
There are three things to delete. If you flash a deodex stock rom, it's easier to delete and modify things.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Eljefe87:

In the OP it says: "Copy 2PS6IMG.zip to root of a physical SD formatted to fat32. No exfat! No internal storage! Must be external SD formated to fat32!"

That is incorrect.

On the M8 and M9 you need your SD card formatted to FAT32, but on the HTC 10 exFAT works as well. It's best not to format larger SD cards (over 32gb) to FAT32.

I always keep my firmware up to date, but the newest update is more stock ROM related. There weren't many changes firmware wise. I think it was the newer Google security update. More worry is put into the security updates than is needed imo.

It seemed that most 2.41.x firmware RUU packages wipe data (boooooo). this makes updating firmware on a whim a big exercise.
