Let's see if I have this straight, you DOWNGRADED from Nougat to Marshmallow? Did you flash a MM firmware?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] didibachmid:
Yes.. i change cid and mid to verizon and iam flashed,finished and Everything work find(flashing from adb/fastboot), when i choose power off, because i want to flash ruu from sdcard and my HTC10 not booting to Download mode again. If i used trick hold power+volume up down my HTC 10 just blinking 3 or 5 time and not booting..

My question is :

1.Can we flash firmware using adb? But not into download mode?

2.this HTC 10 have testpoint like xioami?

3. Can Htc10 into edl like android Qualcomm xiaomi?

Sorry if my engglish not good?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] hgoldner:
Can't answer all these question, but if you have the CID wrong and flash the wrong firmware, you could mess things up.

1. You can't flash firmware via fastboot unless adb is working and the device is in download mode. You could *try* to load it on a fat32 formatted sdcard and reboot to hboot and see whether it "sees" the update. (There are instructions in these forums for how to flash firmware. Check [MENTION=1331268]santod040[/MENTION]'s helpful threads on this subject).

2. I don't believe so, as I have never heard of "testpoint" and I've been using HTC phones for more than 8 years.

3. I don't believe so, as I have never heard of "edl."

Is this the most updated firmware? No OTA when I check and just wondering if I should flash a more updated firmware for improved stability / autofocus?

[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bturkel:
I am need to have someone give me a step by step how to take the Verizon OTA tomorrow on my rooted versioon on the Verizon HTC10 - S-is off - had them root my phone so now what do I do - I need a step by step procedure and I gladly donate for it
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] andybones:
usually, the firmware will be pulled and provided here and you will be able to flash it in download mode.

then for the ROM, that usually gets put into a stock ROM for you to flash, and then you don't need to worry about taking the OTA (firmware + stock ODEX ROM = OTA)

My 10 is on its way back from S-OFF - I'm hoping for Saturday delivery, but it could be Monday/Tuesday knowing USPS - (huge thanks to Sunshine team, esp Beaups for helping me)

I'm hoping to get a stock ROM going at some point soon after my 10 arrives back to me, and then my Fluent ROM.

but for taking an OTA.

I myself actually need to read up a bit on the 10 (I know, I've been lazy/busy) and see if there is anything new other than being on the stock recovery.

I'd say, flash the RUU provided by the great [MENTION=3472611]dottat[/MENTION] and stay with the stock recovery (don't flash TWRP) don't touch system (don't flash superuser or anything) and when the OTA comes you should be able to take it without issue.

(If I am wrong on anything here, kindly fill me in on what I was mistaken about)
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] bturkel:
So wait for the firmware to be pulled and flash it the download mode is probably safest and easy for a novice like me?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] andybones:
Well, honestly it all depends. Are you familiar with adb, and comfortable with it?

and that is just the firmware, we still need someone to provide a stock ROM for you to flash as well, as you would still be on the 1.19.605.9 ROM but with the new firmware.

So at this point, since you are already S-OFF, taking the OTA, is the best route to go if you want to get the goodies right away.

(unless you run a custom ROM.. then you can just update the firmware and continue running the custom ROM)

If you want to stay on the new OTA stock ROM, then taking the OTA would be my suggestion right now, as I'm not entirely sure who has a Verizon HTC 10 and would be starting work on a Stock ROM. If no one else is working on one, I will be glad to start working on it once I get my 10 back to me.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] miciurin:
Ok , here I am, a novice, nice guy :) trying to learn some of this nice things on XDA.

I got a HTC 10 VZW with S-Off and the OTA is here. What do I do next, if some one can help me and have time to tell me step by step. I don't really want to screw up jcase work :)
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] dottat:
OK. For starters you just flash the ruu itself using any of the options/instructions in the op. You are s-off so your phone will be fine. It will not wipe. It will not undo s-off. It will boot back up with all your stuff and ready to happily accept the ota. Take the ota. Then you are free to flash the latest twrp image using fastboot. Rooting the phone once you reflash twrp is as simple as downloading the latest supersu zip from chain fire and flashing it in twrp. It's just this simple. This is the beauty of an s-off phone. It will do what you want it to do.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lost Virtue:
Currently on a custom ROM (LeeDroid) using a Unlocked HTC 10 (on verizon). It looks like my firmware version is currently the Verizon version (1.19.605.9) because I originally flashed the Verizon RUU before switching to LeeDroid. Do I need to flash the Verizon firmware, or can I flash the US Unlocked firmware and then flash the VZW radio seperately? If I flash the Verizon updated firmware, will I still get the benefits of the camera improvements?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] miciurin:
Few things.

My phone is not on the "Take the ota"? stage since jcase worked on it?

Do I have to connect the phone to a computer in order to "flash the ruu"?

The latest twrp will be the ota?

:) Thank you

I will get to it but for sure I have to read more this weekend.....:D
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] dottat:
Your phone will be in the take the ota stage immediately after the ruu. You can flash the ruu via your ext sd card if you don't your PC handy. That's one of the options.

Don't doubt me ?
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] hgoldner:
[MENTION=7484407]miciurin[/MENTION], they return the 10 S-OFF, bootloader unlocked, rooted with TWRP installed, so the OTA will fail on install. (This just happened to me.)

I rolled back to stock using [MENTION=3472611]dottat[/MENTION]'s RUU, which does not relock bootloader and didn't even erase installed apps, but unroots. Take the OTA, then you can reflash TWRP and re-root.

Wait, I must have a signature somewhere on this sdcard....
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] miciurin:
dottat, I don't doubt you but I guess I have to understand first what is all this S-OFF, TWRP and the rest of them and than will be much easy to understand what you guys are talking about.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] miciurin:
First step, DONE :D Now I have 1.19.605.22

What happen if I don't reflash TWRP and re-root? I assume I can not have a different ROM, correct?

Well, I want to get something else ....any suggestions? But first how do I reflash TWRP? In bootloader ?

Thank you.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] dottat:
Sounds like you got the first TWO steps done. Niiice. You can flash twrp via fastboot in boot loader. Simply download the latest twrp image file and place it in your fastboot/adb directory. Flash it using the command

Fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

Then you are free to root your new stock rom or flash a custom rom.
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] miciurin:
OK, I understand. But the latest twrp imagine file was not installed when I got the phone back s-off?

Where do I download the file from?

Flashed this to get the new OTA that was showing up for me. have everything all reset and ready to go with no problems, what does Verizons update utility tell me "Your device is up to date, no update needed" so frustrating now I wait I guess for it to change its mind
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] btonetbone:
Thanks to [MENTION=3472611]dottat[/MENTION] for the files, tips, and guides! As someone new to HTC devices (but not new to rooting and unlocked bootloaders), this process is pretty different than what I'm used to. Coming from LeeDroid, I flashed the RUU, took the OTA, flashed TWRP via fastboot, and flashed back to LeeDroid in TWRP.

Some questions, though. After I flashed the RUU and the OTA, I kept getting a lot of app crashes (Play Store, Calendar, Gmail, etc). The OTA menu was also very unresponsive throughout the process; I was about to give up on it when a dialog for the OTA finally appeared, but it took maybe 15 minutes. Is that normal?

Also, this process is really slow. Is it possible to ever just flash the updated radio or firmware without having to go through this? With the whole "Android is upgrading... Optimizing app 1 of 115" happening after each major flash, this ended up eating most of my afternoon. If this is just how it is with HTC devices, that's fine, too. I just want to make sure I know what I'm in for each time an OTA rolls around.

Thanks again for all the help!!
[Verizon HTC 10 Guides, News, & Discussion] dottat:
Yes. An updated firmware zip should be available soon. The fc's were because the ruu doesn't wipe. So if you weren't fully stock before (root is OK) then you likely are seeing some effect of what we call dirty flashing.

Verizon RUU for firmware 1.21.617.3

I have an unlocked 10 and have been walking through this guide Guide Convert Unlocked To Verizon-t3380615. I made it to step three but am receiving an error message about the firmware versions, my phone is on the 1.21.2617.3 firmware. This is my first time (ever) attempting to make these types of changes to a phone.

I've been going through a number of threads on xda including this one and wanted to confirm what I think I've read.

a) Currently there isn't a Verizon RUU for 1.21.617.3 But [MENTION=3472611]dottat[/MENTION] is working on one?

b) Another possible solution is for me to downgrade my firmware to the correct 1.19.605.9 version and then apply the RUU?

Thank you!

Chris

Do you want to double check your versions. Verizon is X.X.605.X always.

2617 can't be correct.

Only thing I've noticed so far is that my Plantronics Backbeat fit bluetooth headset isn't recognized, but the new phone can see my previous HTC M8 on bluetooth so I suspect it's something with the headset itself and not the phone. I'll contact Plantronics tomorrow to see if they have any thoughts.

You can just copy to root of your SD card, rename to 2ps6img.zip and reboot to bootloader and follow prompts. That's the way I prefer

Yes it will put stock recovery back on, so you'll need to reflash TWRP.

Copying to the root of the SD card will only work if it's formatted for FAT32. If you main card isn't (most are exfat) you'll need to use option 3 in the OP. Or if you have a spare sd card laying around reformat that to Fat32.

If you use option 3 in the OP make sure to grab the version of fastboot at the bottom of the post.

Is there a way to extract just the radio from any of the downloads (such as the firmware.zip)? Also, is there any downside in using the US Unlocked firmware but mixing it with VZW radio? Since VZW seems to take its good ole' time pushing updates, was going to use the standard Unlocked firmware (and updated ones when they come out; FW 1.55.### will be out shortly for US Unlocked for instance where it would take Verizon another 1-2 months to deploy that) as the base with just flashing the VZW radio each time.
