How to Fastboot flash firmware zips:

SD card method also works(outlined below), but I recommend using fastboot

Place the zip in your fastboot/adb directory on your computer.

Put the device in fastboot(bootloader) mode

--- (Volume down and power until menu appears, select bootloader using power button)(Download mode should work as well on M9 and HTC 10)

Connect the device to the computer

Enter the following commands from terminal/command prompt in the fastboot directory, one at a time:

[*] fastboot oem rebootRUU (this puts the device in RUU mode) (old process/not needed on HTC10)

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (rename file to firmware.zip to make it simple/optional)

It will say that the update did not finish, to flush again, so repeat the above step:

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

fastboot reboot-bootloader (this reboots the device to bootloader)

If your current fastboot isn't working/throws errors, please use the HTC fastboot in the zip below:

HTC_fastboot.zip

Replace existing commands with the HTC_fastboot prefix.

So for example, instead of:

fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

You would do this instead:

HTC_fastboot flash zip firmware.zip

How to flash firmware using SDCard Method

(thanks to [MENTION=1102297]Sneakyghost[/MENTION])

Prerequisites:

Compatible SDCard, should be formatted with FT32 for older firmware, newer firmware can also handle ExtFS formatted cards.

A firmware.zip you would like to flash, taken from Post #2 (Downloads)

Phone charged up at least 30% (will fail with low power warning if lower than 30%)

Step-By-Step:

​

1.

Rename your firmware.zip to exactly "2PS6IMG.zip"

- make sure you enable "show file extensions" in Windows Explorer, if you rename it on your PC. Else you might end up with a "2PS6IMG.zip.zip" which won't flash.

2.

Copy your "2PS6IMG.zip" over to the root of your SDCard.

Use a cardreader, or MTP protocol in Android or Recovery, or USB Mass Storage protocol in Recovery, or ADB push the file in Android or Recovery - many methods available.

3.

Now, if device is booted into Android, reboot into download mode by running:

adb reboot download

3.a

Or else, if your device is in a different state or you just prefer the button method:

In Android: Press and hold Power and VolDown at the same time for approx. 15 seconds, when the screen and charging LED go dark immediately let go of power, keep holding VolDown a little longer.

During Boot and sometimes when booted into Recovery: Press and hold Power, VolDown and VolUp at the same time for approx. 15 seconds, when the screen and charging LED go dark immediately let go of power and VolUp, keep holding VolDown a little longer.

4.

Once Download Mode starts, it will "see" the 2PS6IMG.zip and ask you (yellow text at bottom of screen) if you want to flash the firmware.

Press VolUp to confirm and proceed with the flash, or press VolDown to cancel and continue into Download Mode UI.

5.

Now check the screen while it flashes.

It should stop at "end UI updating. Press Power to continue" - the phone will now shut off! To turn it back on, press and briefly hold power again.

How to Manually apply OTA Updates

Requirements for manually installing OTA:

100% unmodified system (can be restored from RUU, TWRP system.img backup, or the stock rom provided in OP without using debloat or root options in aroma)

Stock recovery (can download above)

Place the OTA file on the external sdcard, and reboot to stock recovery (if you don't have SD Card use adb sideload instead, search the web for simple instructions):

adb reboot recovery

After booting to the stock recovery, you'll probably see a large exclamation mark on the screen.

Press the power button, then short press volume up + volume down to activate the HTC recovery menu.

Use your volume keys to navigate through items.

Navigate to "Apply update from SD card", and press power button to select.

Navigate to your file and press power button to apply the update.

The recovery will now install the OTA.

After reboot, the recovery should automatically install the firmware for you.
