[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] hidea:
i have no idea what RUU is (it's been too long since the last time I have an HTC phone), but I am guessing it's some sort of a ROM package for HTC devices.

I bought the U11+ from a vendor in Asia, but I can't seem to find the originating country where the phone was sold. I'm unsure if it's a Hong Kong model, or European model. But inside the box, the power adapter that came with the phone is a type C (commonly used in Europe). On the box, it seems the model 2Q4D100.

Now my actual question is, how can I update my phone to the newest ROM because my phone is currently running version 1.10.400.23 (October Security Patch)? Also, if possible, I'd like to keep the phone as stock as possible, root and unlocking bootloader or s-off isn't something that I am after.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] xxzxzx:
i think your device europe model update in setting or dowlond here 1.24.401.2 ru version and update on pc
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] hidea:
What software do I use to update on the PC?

Thanks for your response.

EDIT: answering my own question

If your phone is untampered/unrooted, with its bootloader still locked (e.g., you haven't done anything to modify your phone); then IF you manage to find the correct RUU file that matches your phone's CID/MID (CountryID? ModelID?):

1. Rename the RUU file to correspond with your device's model type (e.g. 2Q4DIMG.zip)

2. Find a MicroSD card, and place the RUU file into the root of that MicroSD Card. Insert the MicroSD card into the phone. You need to use a MicroSD card, otherwise the next step won't work.

3. Boot into Download Mode, by pressing and holding down the 'Vol Down + Power Key while the device is turned-off. Let go of the keys as soon as you feel the device vibrates

4. Once your device successfully boots into Download Mode, your device will ask if you'd like to flash the RUU file. Proceed by pressing the Vol Up key.

5. If your RUU file matches your device's CID/MID, then Download Mode will proceed with the installation.

6. ????

7. Profit?

You have this version-Asia_TW_1.24.709.7

this is the last version?
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] sephstyler:
1.24 only OTA'ed in the last few days, so he was probably on the latest on 1.23.

Can always RUU to 1.23 and OTA up to 1.24, so not too massive if you cant find an RUU for 1.24 yet. I havent seen 1.24.709.7 RUU floating around yet.

Hi guys, i am planning on buying the U+ here from China/Beijing, as you know devices here don't come with Google play store and Google stock apps installed. I am wondering since i never owned an HTC phone before, is it possible to flash another country or region rom for ex: HK that has all Google apps and do you recommend me buying this phone?, any further advice or tips would be much appreciated.

I am planning to sell my Iphone 8+ and get the U+ instead.

Thanks in advance.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Toxicology:
I have the device for almost 3 weeks now... I'm absolutely happy with it... Don't believe in many of the reviews out there (YouTube etc.)... There are many reviews saying the screen is too dark... That is absolutely not true! I've had the HTC 10 before and while having both devices side by side with same setting, the u11+ indeed looks much darker, but it seems, the lightsensor is much better! In sunlight the u11+ is much better readable than the 10 is... And I'm using just 25% brightness outside in automode and on the 10 I have to use 50+% to be able to read something on the display. What I try to say is, that many reviewers are doing device checks indoor... You don't need your device to be a supertrouper indoors to be clear. So the reviews are dumb. The materials used are absolutely great, the manufacturing is perfect!

So for you question about the Google apps... AFAIK you can download every Google app and install it via playstore. To get playstore itself, check apkmirror.com

Theoretical you can flash other Roms... Practically atm its not possible, cause there aren't any custom roms around yet. It's possible to open bootloader via htcdev site and you can flash custom recovery and root your device. So if you want to flash a Rom from a different region I guess you first need to get s-off, which is also not available now. But with the option to download and install all Google apps (if that's everything you need) from apk mirror I doubt you need to do manipulate anything in the device and just use it out of the box getting all your stuff you need from the web and install it.
[HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion] Rashad83:
,

Thank you very much for the advice, see the problem with phones specific to china they don't come with Google services framework and Google Account apks pre built, which are essential for some Google apps to work properly or you would get the force close issues which I see alot of users from China and outside are complaining about after installing manually both apks mentioned and other Google apps on the U11+.

I used to own a Huawei P8 (Great device) but i didn't buy it from China it came with Google apps and wasn't facing the issue I am inquiring about. The point I want to make is that the downfall of that device and these Chinese brands is the updates frequency and lack of developer/rom support.

What I am afraid of with this device besides the updates frequency, lack of developer/rom support is not being able to flash stock roms with Google apps pre built. All of these are red flags to not buy and enjoy this nice device which is a shame.

I think it would be a better decision to stick with the iphone 8+ for now because it retains a better second hand value compared to the 11U+ if i decide to buy it. My true device goal is a 2018 device with better looks/specs and support.

Thanks again.

[HTC Vox] makaveli86:
So i just flashed my vox with dr.gonzo's new 1.0 rom...and I did it the same way i've been doing it for months now (since his first rom 0.1) and it all went good, but when it was suppose to reboot turned off but never turned back on....I turn it on manually and i see the htc logo, it vibrates and then black screen... nothing happens afterwards...please dont tell me its bricked...please.....:(
[HTC Vox] h4waii:
If you're not able to get it into the bootloader to run an RUU then I suggest that you flash a signed HTC ROM, flash USPL and then re-flash New Guava v1.0
[HTC Vox] makaveli86:
how do i flash a signed htc rom? when i turn it on, the htc logo comes on, then vibrates, and then a black screen.... when i try a hard reset, it asks me to confirm by pressing send. i press send (correct me if i'm wrong, send is the green 'phone' button right?) and it loads up the htc logo, vibrates and then shuts off. I've never had a bricked phone before, this all just doens't make sense i did the same steps that i've always done.
[HTC Vox] h4waii:
Seriously? Your phone is not bricked.

If you've flash a ROM before, it's the exact same procedure - what you can try and do is load into the bootloader by holding the camera button and plugging in a USB cable, it will start into the tri-color screen and should show USB is connected then you can flash a signed HTC ROM.

If the ROM is corrupt, this is your best way of "recovering" your phone, if the ROM was flashed properly, after getting into the bootloader, run ruurun 0 and ResetDevice to boot it back into OS.
[HTC Vox] makaveli86:
oh ok, i haven't tried that yet (bootloader mode that is). Now you say i do this by plugging the usb and holding the power button and camera button? is that how it works? h4waii, you just lightened up my day by giving me some hope! :D
[HTC Vox] h4waii:
That is how you can enter the boot loader.

1). Turn off and unplug the Vox from external power/USB cable

2). Press and hold the camera button

3). Insert external power/USB cable

4). Continue to hold camera button until you enter the tri-color screen

At this point, you should have a "USB" text label on the bottom left hand side indicating USB is detected - you can then run an RUU from a signed HTC ROM to update it.
[HTC Vox] makaveli86:
press and hold the camera button alone? i tried that, it doesn't power up the unit though?
[HTC Vox] h4waii:
Yes it does. Hold camera and plug in your USB cable (making sure it's also plugged into your computer).
[HTC Vox] makaveli86:
ok i got it to the triband screen, but when i ran dr.gonzo's rom it got to 3% and said its corrupt. so i'm gonna do what you said and flash a signed htc rom. hopefully it works....
[HTC Vox] h4waii:
Yes, 3% because SPL is not patched to allow an unsigned ROM to be loaded, flash an HTC ROM to it, once that is complete you can run USPL to re-flash New Guava.

It will work, don't need to hope :)
[HTC Vox] makaveli86:
you are a godsend! literally have no idea how depressed i was yesterday! :( being a university student money is very tight right now so was a total shock when i realized i bricked my $350 phone....I wish i had money cause i'd send you some for being so helpful but I dont... So just please understand i REALLLY appreciate your help, thank you.

Bro 1020 and 920 are good phones really but if you want to use them better prefer to downgrade to 14393

It has no issue even I want to downgrade my 950XL to 14393 because 14393 has no map issue, better offline map and more features! (Kids corner, apps corner and some other thing didn't removed there)

also Bluetooth is working for your phone .

If your problem is map only prefer to use Yandex.Maps or My in developing GMAPS and help me to solve it's problems faster
[Windows 10 Mobile] jaspi72:
Yah i had 14393 but same broplems there no roads on maps in 1020...

I think on my 1020 is harware **** on bluetooth cuz its been on switseland and germany factory repair and they didnt see any broplems, yeah they tested like 10 sec and it works but thing is after while this loose signal totally and bluetooth not work anymore.
[Windows 10 Mobile] j00j4nt200:
No hope.

You can try 'GeoNet' I think it works somehow with low details.

I think there is 'GPS bluetooth' aplication that can be paired with external gps, and shown maps online for orientation purpose, useless for navigation.

You can use road signs :)
[Windows 10 Mobile] jaspi72:
gps works like new so problems with that. But windows maps show map and theres no road so hell thats totally useless.

Iv looked new google maps guys to get it work so....'

I like this phone and buyed this cuz camera... It works still and total better pics can take than other blah phones........

TWRP 3.2.1-0: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cLqcDrun5f6h1BHjUFfXDdlhwEWwM-49/view?usp=sharing

SuperSU: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sZwahrodGJmYWzaIohxEETeIAabCOPfb/view?usp=sharing

Steps to install TWRP and SuperSU

Copy the above SuperSU to your SDCard.

First of all, you will be required to unlock your bootloader.

There is an option for this under Developer Options in the settings menu. Activate this.

Also activate USB Debugging. This makes this a whole lot easier.

Now, open a terminal, if on Linux, or command prompt if on windows, and enter the following:

adb reboot bootloader

fasboot oem unlock

Follow the onscreen instructions to unloack your bootloader. THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE!!!

Once this is complete, it will go back to the fastboot screen.

Now, from within your terminal/command prompt, navigate to the folder where you have downloaded the above recovery.img to.

Enter the following command once there:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

This will flash TWRP to your device, overwriting the stock recovery.

Once this is complete, there will be a screen telling you how long it took etc. Now you need to hold down your volume up button, and power button. Keep holding these untill you reach the menu for recovery, fastboot or normal mode.

Select Recovery.

This will boot into TWRP for the first time. when you get there, you will be prompted with a screen asking for a password. Cancel this.

WHAT EVER YOU DO, DO NOT FORMAT DATA LIKE IT ASKS YOU!"" YOU WILL LOSE TWRP!!!

Your then presented with the main TWRP screen, go ahead and tap on Install. Next, hit Select Storage, and select Storage 1. This is your SDCard.

Now flash SuperSU.

When this is installed, reboot to your main system, and update the SuperSu binary.

Now proceed to reboot back to recovery, how ever you wish.

Once in recovery, go into Wipe, and hit Format Data, this will wipe your phone again, but youve just done this anyway so it doesnt matter ;)

Now flash SuperSU again, just to be safe, the same way as above.

Reboot to your system, and your done!

You will have to go through the setup of the whole android system again, but its worth it ;) your now rooted and have TWRP to install the Custom ROMs that will be coming shortly ;)

Have Fun!

[Miscellaneous Android Development] tbst1337:

will try it now and update as soon as it's done!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tbst1337:
alright, so i tried to flash super su, but i never get to access the storage partitions (i think they are not mounted).

so i tried to factory reset / wipe the phone to get rid of the encryption, but i still cant select storage 1 from the menu.

here some more detail:

- i have already had the bootloader unlocked

- then i come to this screen when twrp starts, and select "swipe to allow modifications"

- then i press install and want to select "storage 1", this however doesnt work. (due to encryption?)

- i tried to mount it, but cant even mark it active. just gets gray for half a second and then nothing

- tried to do a wipe via twrp as well, with no success

any ideas?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ukhellfire666:
Your third screenshot - what's the last option, under Microsd?

Also, when going through install, can u see "external SD"?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tbst1337:
the last one is USB OTG, also showing 0MB - i actually tried flashing supersu through the usb as well, with no luck

i can see external_sd but there dont seem do be ANY contents

do you think it is the encryption? because everything shows 0MB in brackets

EDIT:

i just thought what the hell i try again to flash it via usb. havent changed anything but suddenly SUCCESS :D

appreciate your time :) thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ukhellfire666:
So what did you do differently? If you can explain a bit more, I'll change/add it to the guide. Maybe as a second option or something...?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tbst1337:
i just booted again into twrp and suddenly my 4gb usb was showing up as the only thing not 0mb, so the usb otg partition was mounted. from there on i just pressed install and located the zip file on the usb drive. had some errors. below some pics i took with my old phone:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ukhellfire666:
Ahhh brilliant! I don't suppose u found that he sdcard was mounted too did you?

Have the errors gone now your rooted? The rest of the guide should still count...?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tbst1337:
yes i am indeed rooted!

everything else, including internal storage was 0mb as well. usb otg was literally the only one.

i have not gone back into recovery since, but rebooted several times and also used root apps (adaway). everything seems to work great and the rest of the guide still counts!

in total, everything seems stable until now :good: :D my goal is to not touch twrp anymore until android 8.1 will be released ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ukhellfire666:
The official 8.1 update with overwrite TWRP.

I am now working on a cm14.1 build. As im having to use a prebuikt kernel, this is as far as I can go.

As soon as I have a beta ROM I'll upload.

Don't suppose you could boot to recovery and just double check that everything is as it should be? Put my mind at ease, make sure it works for you, as it does for me...

Hi.

Thank you for twrp.

I am trying to use SuperSu with SuHide, i wipe data with this twrp to be able to install supersu in BINDSBIN mode to /data but data partition stay unencrypted to be mountable with thw twrp.

How to encrypt it back with own known password keeping supersu and suhide working?

TWRP has no option to reformat with password, no way to get origin password for stock recovery formated partition.

Any idea?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ukhellfire666:
No idea I'm afraid. Sorry.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MioCZ:
I used encryption in system Setup, i works, but with unknown password stored somewhere in nvdata partition. I am worry about loose root after OTA update :( and without pasword for twrp no way to get again to data partition.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DaF1974:
I'm thinking of buying this phone. It's great to see that root already seems to work and that there might be a CM/LineageOS Rom soon. Root and custom recovery is crucial so one reason less to not buy it.

Thank you ukhellfire666:D

My question:

is there any idea to fully remove superSu to install snapchat

A full system backup has been taken.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tbst1337:
good day to you.

in general i am happy with it, but the camera really blows. it is - without a doubt - the worst camera i had since my LG VX-5200. iphone 6s and galaxy s6 have way better cameras.

i am really frustrated, because they advertised the 4 cameras ..." " heavily, but they really suck. maybe it's just with the stock app and another app would make it better (but somehow i doubt that)

tomorrow i will go on holiday and was stoked that the phone arrived before, so i could take it with me to take pictures etc. seems like i will need to get the old digital camera out....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MioCZ:
Is possible to flash un-supersu package. Is somewhere in SuperSu topic. Or you can flash clean ROM / your backups (boot.img, recoovery.img, system.img).

Because this i have used supersu in BINDSBIN mode and suhide. So i have hiden su, locked bootloader, working OTA and all root sensitive apps.
