I also bought it instead of Nexus 5, thinking a big company like HTC never broke a big promise like this, they dont peomise it for M9 but as we see secound device was that and we still remain on marshmallow! Ok 15 day is not possible for a big update like nougat and again ok htc 10 is flag ship, but why they release it for M9 but not for A9?!
[HTC One A9] ultramal:
Technically they was...

Actually other brands have their models with Nougat today.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Reboot to bootloader and check things like CID and s-on/s-off... if it's s-on chances are it is locked unless your original carrier that you got it from sells unlocked phones
[HTC One A9] spaha-bih:
unfortunately it says it´s locked and s-on.

but i´ve bought the Xperia Z5 from the same carrier and it is sim free.

I guess I have to wait for update to come specifically to my carrier and wait for them to give us the nougat update.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
You could use a tool that costs $25 to s-off your device and then convert it to the US unlocked edition and get nougat that way
[HTC One A9] megatomic:
I did this myself, quite easy. My AT&T A9 is much happier as a retail unlocked A9.
[HTC One A9] spaha-bih:
my sister is using this phone so that is why i am avoiding this process, but that would void my warranty, right?

anyway, i will wait for official release, i will never understand why they complicating this so much.

also before i bought this a9 for my sister, htc promised that they will provide fast update for new android version, and they lied.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Yes is would void the warranty, and HTC only means that for their unlocked phones, not carrier specific ones (even though the nougat update still took a while for unlocked editions). It could be that on your carrier they don't push the update to your phone at all and you can never get nougat by sticking with stock
[HTC One A9] elfasito:
Any news from at&t update to nougat? Or never

tapa one A9
[HTC One A9] spaha-bih:
So far I´ve received all marshmallow updates from 6.0 to 6.0.1 including the latest update with October security patch, if this is the latest update for marshmallow, I am not sure.

I will wait, if my carrier doesn´t provide me the noguat update, I will have to go with this that option above.
[HTC One A9] Hsuan24:
If my A9 is htc_hiaeuhl, 2PQ910000 and cid HTC__621, can I convert to US unlocked version?
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
At&t really just stopped pushing updates the month after the a9 was released, they featured it for like 5 seconds and then moved on ?
[HTC One A9] megatomic:
Is anyone else but me having Google+ crash on them constantly? It seems like when I get to a series of posts that feature a bunch of large image files that is when the app crashes. I've cleared the app cache and I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app to no avail. Also, it was happening prior to the Nougat update so this is not a new issue for me.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
I've never had this problem, maybe model difference... are you using the variant with 2GB of ram? I have 3GB of ram and everything runs smooth
[HTC One A9] megatomic:
I also have the 3GB version. I think I'm going to run the ruu file and set up the device as new. Hopefully that fixes this problem.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Oh OK, yeah google+ is running fine for me on 3GB variant, and yes I would suggest going that if your running into any problems, hopefully that will fix it
[HTC One A9] larekralj:
I hope i get the update :( its february and still nothing ...
[HTC One A9] megatomic:
The problem was not resolved by running the RUU file. Google+ crashes every time I use it, sometimes quickly, sometimes I get to browse for a short while before it crashes.
[HTC One A9] BOO5TED:
Just got the update here in ATL, Google Play Services and weatherbug elite keeps crashing. :(
[HTC One A9] peterzuma:
Hii did you manage to get yours updated yet or did you do it manually?
[HTC One A9] mcnico:
Ok, I got the update the morning

I'm in France.

What I can say right now is that everything seems to be working smoothly.

There is only one thing I hate for now, I was able to disable HTC system apps on Marshmallow, I'm not able to do that anymore.

So I put the AOSP phone and contact apps, my own calendar, launcher apps etc. But I can't disable the HTC stock apps running in background ...

I would have to root if I want to get that ability again

Except that, I really feel like it is running faster, smooth transitions etc.
[HTC One A9] scotty2000:
Hi, can you tell me please what CID do you have? Do you have the EU version of the A9 ? 2GB/16GB ?

Thanks
[HTC One A9] eminemscu:
For Taiwan 2GB RAM version got it yesterday.
[HTC One A9] mcnico:
Maybe my phone is from there then ?

I checked my phone CID and it's HTC_621 meaning "TWM-TW" . I don't know at all what it means..

Does that means Taiwan ? Would be logic for "TW" but What about "TWM"?
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
The only way to get rid of those apps is either through TWRP file manager(you will get bootloop if you don't patch dm-verify in the kernel) or you can root with SuperSU zip OR magisk v11 (I use that, as it has a feature to bypass safety net to use Android pay and Snapchat, etc.
[HTC One A9] Hsuan24:
I got my A9 from Taiwan and TWM means Taiwan Mobile (in Chinese 台灣大哥大) which is a carrier.

Does Nougat running smoothly? Is everything works? I have the Taiwanese 3GB RAM/32GB ROM version and no update yet. You're lucky to get the update.
[HTC One A9] eminemscu:
Yes, everything fine so far.
[HTC One A9] revcp:
Got the Sprint ota yesterday, but have been unable to install it. I had TWRP recovery (unrooted) and bootloader unlocked, so I installed a stock recovery and relocked. Still no go. So I tried to install a zip from the SD card. Nope. Then tried it with the RUU.exe. Nada. Then tried to flash with fastboot. Nothing. I reinstalled a stock recovery. Same result. Anyone have similar issues?
[HTC One A9] alray:
edit:

nvm, just realized we already talked about that in another thread. Were you able to find the signed firmware somewhere?
[HTC One A9] revcp:
No, never found it.
[HTC One A9] peterzuma:
Hi.

What is your software number?
[HTC One A9] Hsuan24:
I finally got Nougat OTA update on March 15! :cool: Version: 2.16.709.3 Currently I enjoy Nougat with multi-windows (watching YouTube video and browse on the the same time).
[HTC One A9] Phelin:
Any one knows on India update schedule ?
[HTC One A9] solved:
.. nothing new for EU / DE Vodafone ?! .. still running on 1.62 (android 6.0 )
[HTC One A9] colindodds:
Anyone on xda have information when a9 cid 02_001 going to get some nougat sweetness
[HTC One A9] Didusieq:
HTC says nothing about it. Even asking in Social Media leaves no response. They dont give a f**k about it. :(
[HTC One A9] Tamlins:
Just received Nougat 2.17.401.2 in Belgium
[HTC One A9] itskapil:

[HTC One A9] itskapil:
Awesome!
[HTC One A9] maikwars:
Why do u received this Software-Version? I get OTA in Germany 2.16.161.5 with 1. December 2016 Security-Level :(
[HTC One A9] Tamlins:
Because I clicked on "check updates" 69 times/day since december 2016 ? :D
[HTC One A9] colindodds:
Arrived in UK o2
[HTC One A9] albatoratatlantis:
Arrived in France at last !

Hi. I'm French. Finally got my update last night. Version is not 2.17.*** as was expected according to the informations I had found on the net but 2.16.***. I don't know if that matters.

The phone runs fine and smooth. Many third part app don't support split screen yet.
[HTC One A9] Didusieq:
It should support split screen. 2.16. supports it. :)
[HTC One A9] gemies:
Got the update in Netherlands this morning. Does anyone know how splitscreen modus works?

Sorry Just found it, works very nice!
[HTC One A9] albatoratatlantis:
A nice option is the kind of alt+tab by double tapping the show all apps recently used.
[HTC One A9] Laximus:
I got the update on this week on Tuesday in Hungary. Everything seems ok.
[HTC One A9] Phelin:
Any news on India update ?
[HTC One A9] DerOtter:
Anyone else got worse Bluetooth connection/speed since 7.0 update?

Nevermind, problem was a connection to my surface tablet.

yesterday appears me to download OTA update: 2.18.617.21 (455mb). USA unlocked

any changelog?
[HTC One A9] gio91ber:
Hello. Every day since almost a month ago I have system upgrade notification for version 2.17.401.2 but I'm still stuck on marshmallow on an italian a9 since the update itself doesn't work as it stops downloading just after starting telling me that the update got corrupted.

Htc confirmed that the update was locked on their side. Is there any way to update my phone anyways (hopefully without having to reset it completely) or I just have to wait until they release a new version of the update itself?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my very bad english.

HTC One A9 Maintenance Release Instructions 4.25.2017

This software upgrade available for your HTC One A9 provides the following key enhancements:

· April 2017 Android Security Patches
[HTC One A9] DuoDex:
That OTA is not appearing for me, USA unlocked also, I am not sure why it is not showing...
[HTC One A9] Tommmii:
perhaps you're rooted ?

Don't think rooted phones update OTA.
[HTC One A9] DuoDex:
Not rooted but I did update to 2.18.617.1 after this patch came out so maybe in some weird way it was included? Patch level still shows December 2016 though.
[HTC One A9] Tommmii:
as per The RUU collection thread, 2.18.617.10 is the latest for HIA_AERO_UL
[HTC One A9] dinesh_sai:
Friends ..Whatever you are feeling post in Twitter [MENTION=1862878]movers[/MENTION]i...They should know what customers are feeling ...And yes I feel 15 day update promise was a very important selling point over Nexus devices for A9
[HTC One A9] BOO5TED:
Thing that gets me every time an update comes out is people ***** and moan because they don't have it yet. Does your phone still work? Is it inoperable now that it's .1 version off of the absolute most current version? Will you die if you don't get it immediately? People, really? It's an update for a phone that you can still use everyday just like you did the day before. You guys sound like my 8 year old daughter when she doesn't get her way.

Be patient.

It's coming.

Act like adults. (most here probably are)
[HTC One A9] CoronaDabs:
I agree
[HTC One A9] Surpriser:
I'm don't think same way, my neighbor still like windows XP and he thinks it works well and he don't need any upgrade, also think he's Nokia with Symbian is also working and can send text message and get phone calls. So who don't want update means he's/she's adult?

if think your right ( as I don't think so ) why HTC come and say hey guys! buy my phone instead of others! why because I will update it in 15 days! you think HTC's market positioning is not adults? and want to sell phone to just babies and teenagers? of course no! as I researched a lot know this fact most people buying nexus phone are just for regular updates. so its an important thing and even for adults!

and what happened when someone think ok its not an important thing and lets ignore it. next time HTC and other companies like HTC will come and promise something is important for people and after selling their product, silently will ignore it and broke their promise! even if HTC release the update today , again a big promise is braked silently without informing and counting users.
[HTC One A9] dinesh_sai:
Yes the phone is operable ,the first version of Android was also operable and even the non smartphones before that too . Wonder whether updates are only to overcome opera tonal flaws ! We wont die if we don't get the update immediately , as a matter of fact we wont die if we don't buy a new smartphone every year expecting something new Everytime ! We are very patient and derive our patience levels from HTC who are shamelessly listening to all customers complaints and still not replying anything on their promise .

You sound like the politicians who keep giving assurances and ask citizens to be patient when not able to abide by their promises .
[HTC One A9] VirusRenamon:
I personally am just tired of the Android media process crashing 20x a day (not joking), and no, I haven't modified my device in any way.
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
Yes, if you have galaxy s7's you can get your upgrade today if you enroll in the beta program.

Nothing against Samsung, but usually they are slow as hell with updates because they have their "Samsung experience/TouchWiz" ui
[HTC One A9] ultramal:
Moto G 4 and G Plus had nougat officially... :p
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
Rip HTC One A9 2015-2016
[HTC One A9] Wonders_Never_Cease:
All the complaining,whining etc is not going to make it be released any faster or later... I see folks posting that this device or that device already got the Nougat update... Where this may be true,those companies also have 4 times the resources to get the updates out faster...In comparison HTC has done a relatively good job keeping up for the most part...But I have a feeling no matter what timeline is said or met... You cant please everyone,nor should it be expected of anyone or any entity to try... As in life you do the best you can with what you have to work with... ATT A9 hasnt been updated since 12-2015...and y'all steady complaining about a 15 day timeline.... Just my thoughts on it... To be quite honest... NOT impressed with Nougat at all and its not a very big step up by any means...So relax...itll get here when it gets here... :cool: :cool:
[HTC One A9] The_scam:
If you are waiting for the at&t updates, s-off and convert. Then flash USA unlocked

Also, I agree with the "not a big step up" statement.

Now from KitKat to lollipop, that was a big update.
[HTC One A9] ouioui01:

Good news...

will it available for Europe version?
[HTC One A9] Wonders_Never_Cease:
Only for US Unlocked versions I believe...Moversi only deals with North America...
[HTC One A9] VirusRenamon:
Very nice, now I wont have to deal with android.process.media crashing 20x a day anymore :D
[HTC One A9] rouyal:
Whats this issue? How do i know if Ive experienced it?
[HTC One A9] VirusRenamon:
I keep getting a popup saying "android.process.media has stopped working" and gives you the choice of reporting it to HTC or not. Should be very obvious if you have the issue or not, since its a foreground android popup.
[HTC One A9] rouyal:
Never had that error
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
I have twrp and I am s-off, if I revert back to stock using an ruu can I take an ota?
[HTC One A9] JS.zip:
Yes
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
OK thanks
[HTC One A9] JS.zip:
Downloading now
[HTC One A9] VirusRenamon:
Can confirm
[HTC One A9] dinesh_sai:
Nougat update -Does US unlocked include India unlocked too ?
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
I am still unlocked so I can't take the ota... is there anyway to relock the boot loader or any other say to be able to take the ota? I just ran an ruu and it still tells me I have a modified system
[HTC One A9] jianC:
I have a boost mobile device flashed to unlocked and I got the notification also. However, it won't let me flash the update. Waiting for the full RUU..
[HTC One A9] Didusieq:
Ok, HTC, now it is time for other regions! :/
[HTC One A9] jianC:
I extracted the latest OTA.

It can be downloaded here. It must be flashed through recovery but it will most likely not even flash on your device because it checks for certain CIDS and is only upgradeable from certain stock ROM versions. It is also not very useful because it does not contain the complete system files.
[HTC One A9] megatomic:
I've downloaded the OTA but when I click install now nothing happens. Did I forget to say the magic word?

I did a factory reset and immediately after the onboarding process was finished I was offered the update. It installed without issue after that. I have no idea why it wouldn't install before the factory reset.
[HTC One A9] Behzad.hotknife:
twrp not working on nougat.

i cant root a9 nougat
[HTC One A9] salvy':
How you go back stock ?
[HTC One A9] goodman_east:
already rooted
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
You Have to relock bootloader in order to install it ota... something I didn't know either. Looks like we are just going to have to wait for the RUU to come out
[HTC One A9] salvy':
i have relocked the bootloader still no update, i think my phone have a ota problem. I wait the ruu...
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
How's you relock the boot loader? Can you run me through the steps?
[HTC One A9] salvy':
just lunch "fastboot oem lock" in download mode and the bootloader got relocked (Remember to check in setting-->developer setting-->enable OEM unlock)
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Oh OK, seems like something so simple I didn't know, thanks, I'll try it in a little bit
[HTC One A9] salvy':
The hard stuff is change ReLocked to Locked. Need a root permission for do it and a lot of adb comand line.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Ah I see. With my boot loader set to relocked, will I be able to install the nougat update ota? Or will I still have to wait for RUU?
[HTC One A9] salvy':
If the problem is the bootloader and you relock it, yes you can install the ota.
[HTC One A9] JS.zip:
I am unlock bootloader & s-off, and installed the OTA successfully.
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
OK, thanks. As far as I know that is the only thing from preventing me from updating. I get the notification and I downloaded it, but when I try to install it, it tells my I have a modified system and it can't continue. I just used the ruu to go back to stock and the only thing modified is the unlocked status in the bootloader, which I believe needs to be set to locked/relocked in order to install the update
[HTC One A9] megatomic:
Mine is set to relocked and I got the update. My phone was originally an AT&T variant.
[HTC One A9] salvy':
Same but my phone not find the ota, I use the last ruu, what cid and mid you have ?

---------- Post added at 03:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 PM ----------

If you have a modified sistem you can't install the ota, use the last ruu 7.0.1, the system will fixed in OFFICIAL and you can update
[HTC One A9] Behzad.hotknife:
with ruu 1.57 .

i think you cant update rooted device with stock recovery .

and now . i have problem with root. waiting for twrp update
[HTC One A9] salvy':
I'm full stock, no root, no costum ROM/recovery i don't know why not work the ota, the phone not find no New Update
[HTC One A9] damncut:
mine also not getting update.bootloader unlocked. European version.any suggestion ??:(:(:(:(
[HTC One A9] scotty2000:
I could install also with S-OFF and unlocked.

[HTC One A9] salvy':
Same situation, but no update available
[HTC One A9] JS.zip:
I wonder why our color ID is different?
[HTC One A9] salvy':
Maybe your is gold my is silver ?
[HTC One A9] JS.zip:
Lol yeah mine is gold, wondered what that meant
[HTC One A9] Behzad.hotknife:
flash ruu 1.57 . its work 100%
[HTC One A9] salvy':
99% i'm the 1% I have a European version so I change cid, mid and flash the ruu 1.12, no update so i flash ruu 1.57.617.60 and still no update (I have just use a ruu exe so I not have root or Rom). Go to recovery stock for flash ota file I find here, the device give me error impossible to Mont /Data so I can't do anything.
[HTC One A9] scotty2000:
What twrp did you take ? Can you provide it for us, please?

---------- Post added at 04:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:37 PM ----------

I have a converted hiaeuhl 16gb with 1.57 dev unlocked and then got ota update.

But twrp isn't working :(
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
My system isn't modified, I used the stock RUU, but the update installer says I have a modified system. That's why I believe it's because my bootloader is unlocked. Once I remove it I think it will update fine
[HTC One A9] damncut:
ahh okk
[HTC One A9] Behzad.hotknife:
I have eu version too . I change cid and flash RUU.zip (1.57) and worked .

try flashing zip ruu.

1.download 1.57

[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Figured out what was wrong when trying to update... it wasn't the fact that I had an unlocked boot loader, but rather the fact that I had superCID, and I didn't know I needed specifically CID BS_US001... but its all good now, got my Android N lol
[HTC One A9] sersel2:
Hi! I have an untouched EU (International) A9 with 1.56.401.81 ROM currently installed, showing no updates available.

Could you please note a list of actions required (preferably links: how to change the IDs, S-OFF, unlock etc.) to update this to N?

I suppose there might be some number of device owners like me, that don't have a solid understanding of the update procedure.
[HTC One A9] damncut:
Me also the same.but I have unlocked boot loader.I think we have to wait some time for the ota.
[HTC One A9] Didusieq:
Where did you get the info that there is an update for One A9 in Europe?
[HTC One A9] MGfusion:
Well there is a way to install it, but it's kind of a lengthy procedure. First, you will want to go to HTCdev.com and follow the steps to unlock bootloader (which you have already done) second, you want to download an app called sunshine, which in needed to s-off your device, it costs $25 dollars, but it is well worth it. After following the steps in sunshine and successfully getting s-off, you will want to connect your phone to your computer via USB cable and use a command prompt with adb installed along with fast boot files in order to change MID (model ID) and CID (carrier ID)(for the unlocked HTC One A9 the CID is US_BS001, not sure of MID off the top of my head). After changing MID and CID to match the unlocked US model, flash the Android 7.0 RUU and then your good to go
