[Q] Atrix 2.3.5 with Supercharged ROM Unrooted?

Phone: Motorola Atrix 2
Gingerbread 2.3.5 running 1-Click Rooted, Supercharged V4 ROM
Issue: Phone no longer has superuser permissions, cannot restore
Background: I recently decided to update via the OTA update to 2.3.6. My first issue was that the phone could not be updated due to the bloatware I removed (namely Social Location, AKA Richlocation.apk and RichLocation.odex).
My end goal was to run Supercharged V4 and 2.3.6 rooted, however I could not use RSD Lite because it will not recognize my phone (64 Bit windows, latest drivers, etc.)
So I tried finding RichLocation.odex to replace the one deleted (since titanium backup could not restore it), and found it for another phone. The upgrade still kept hanging up on that file (saying unexpected results this time).
I downloaded ATrix 2 Bootstrapper and loaded the Supercharged V4. I noticed it reinstalled Social Location, so I decided to give it another try. This time I found that all the other system/apps didn't work. So my plan was to pull the original versions from the backup I had run prior to going Supercharged and put them in the system/apps directory.
It was here that I noticed I no longer had write capability through RootExplorer. I then opened SetCPU and a few other Rooted Apps to find that I no longer had root permissions.
I tried doing a restore in RomManager, but it just hangs up. Atrix 2 Bootstrapper cannot go to Reboot Recovery.
I also tried a factory reset/wipe. No luck (although it did reinstall Social Location and the appropriate Odex file)
So without being able to use RSD Lite, and access through ROM Manager or Bootstrapper, how do I fix this? It seems Supercharged V4 has completely killed my permissions, so I can't re-root the phone or write to any of the system directories.
Help!
Thanks in Advance.

Again by doing some reading you would have seen that this combo isn't available and unless I'm mistaking this is the only ROM running 2.3.6 currently
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420980
Now to your problem with RSD, do you have adb installed or SDK, is your phone in fastboot mode, what OS are you running on your computer, etc. Not trying to come across as rude but generally all your problems been covered and searching will usually reveal them to you. Everything you need is in the beginners thread along with a detailed write up of what you need and how to flash the fastboot files using RSD.

Copy, but that doesn't help me now. When I rooted my phone, I knew nothing about this site or the above. I only rooted for the sole reason of getting rid of social location.

My understanding from the reading I have done is that if you're rooted and then upgrade to 2.3.6, you will still be rooted, correct? And that pre-rooting at 2.3.5 is the only way to root 2.3.6?
Also, I thought I had seen a few people post that once they were past 2.3.6, they went to supercharged v4.
Regardless, that is not my current issue. My current issue is that Supercharged V4 has locked me out of my superuser permissions. I cannot use this function anymore, and I'm looking for help to restore back to my previous settings.

Phone is in fastboot mode. I have adb installed.
Windows 7 64-Bit
Believe me, I have searched. None of the proposed solutions have resolved my problem, and I'm currently looking for a way to do this without RSD.
Thanks.

Just download the motorola drivers from the beginners thread. I also have Windows 7 64 bit, and I have flashed the fkz's countless times. Just remember to pull the files required from 2.3.6 and edit the XML and you should be all set. And you CANNOT use Supercharged with 2.3.6 as it is based on 2.3.5, if you do flash it you will loose all the benefits on 2.3.6 because SC v4 flashes the entire /system/app therefore replacing all apps from 2.3.5.

OK. First off, why do you say RSD Lite is giving an error? What error message is it giving?
Secondly, you do NOT preserve root through an OTA. The su binary/Superuser.apk do not get deleted but their permissions are set to 0. Read the noob thread on how to preserve root through an OTA.
The only way you can fix the problem you're having is by flashing the fxz. Preferably do it through RSD Lite. It only takes 5 minutes.
Now... if you have to not use RSD Lite... you can use the fastboot command that comes in the Android sdk. In 30 mins I'll be home and will post a fastboot binary/what to do.
The latest version of Supercharged is based on 2.3.6, so once you get this worked out you can flash that instead of installing the OTA and not have to worry about losing root/failure due to removed bloatware. EDIT- 2.3.6 was having some problems with hardware buttons, among other things. It looks like 2.3.6 Supercharged has been removed, however there's still a deodexed 2.3.6.

RSD Lite 5.6 is the name of the program.
It gives no error message. When I click "Show Device" it does nothing, and when I select the file, it only gives me the option to uncompress, not flash.

Will do. I thought I had understood in my readings that the process was 1 Click root 2.3.5, OTA, then restore the previous files. I'll reread.

@Cogeary/@moverf16 Supercharged v4 is based off of 2.3.5 I am 100% sure of that. Also I think he meant RSD Lite, he was typing on his phone so it was probably a typo.

I've tried both the ones in the beginners thread, and the latest ones (that include Moto helper).. Neither seem to work.
I've now tried this on two laptops - Windows 7 and a Vista 32 Bit. Same results.

That is very weird indeed. Is your phone recognized for usb mass storage? You might have a faulty USB cable maybe one that has problems with data transfer.

I've tried two of those as well.
If I could have just replaced the bloatware files when this all started, I'd be happily using my phone right now.
Just to confirm, though. Once I finally figure out RSD Lite or how to reflash my phone out of Supercharged V4, my steps will be:
-Flash the Edison stock 2.3.5 Motorola firmware from the Noob thread
- 1 click root the phone
- Change the lines of code per the OTA thread:
If you want to have your device rooted with 2.3.6 and you're currently on 2.3.5 (rooted), follow these instructions:
With a root explorer, navigate to /system/bin/ and edit the mount_ext3.sh file. If you used a 1-click root method, then add the following lines to the end of the file (if you manually rooted then you might want to omit the 1st/2nd line):

Click to collapse
- OTA update (which I actually currently have sitting on my SD card, since I moved it from the cache to the SD card earlier in the process, my plan is to do a boot loader install update from SD device).
- Wait for supercharged V5.
Now, if I can just figure out how to restore my phone back to 2.3.5.
Is there anyway to get back the Super User Permissions that V4 has somehow taken from me?

Also, if anyone has the 2.3.5 system/apps/ files (the .odex's), that would be greatly appreciated, in case I am able to just return to my restore point (somehow regain control of my superuser status).

If your still on 2.3.5 I don't see why the one click way wouldn't work.

Right now one click doesn't work because Supercharger V4 is locking out permissions. It says it's missing some of the directories and that some of the files it's trying to access are read only.

He can't he did the 2.3.6 update.
Look You have to restore the FXZ, you need to figure out why windows does not see your phone. Have you gone into device manager after connecting the phone to see if it even shows there at all?
The ONLY way you are getting root back is to restore the fxz. I am telling you that many others have done exactly what you have, and it has been resolved, please search.
There is no way to get root back or use something other than RSD lite.... You can try using fastboot, to restore the fxz files individually, but considering that you are having the troubles that you are, I would not advise it. That is more complex, and easier to mess your phone up permanently.

OK First off sorry for the typos! Corrected my post.
First let's make 100% sure that you have the correct drivers. Download THESE DRIVERS. Install them. Boot up your phone normally and make sure that you can connect properly in USB Mass Storage, Windows Media Sync, etc.
Now let's check to see that your phone is connecting to your PC correctly. Boot into fastboot mode (Hold power + volume buttons, scroll down to "AP Fastboot," press volum up) and connect your phone to your computer. The bottom text on your phone should now change to: "Transfer Mode: USB Connected". If something else happens then you have a faulty connection.
Now let's make sure RSD Lite is detecting your phone properly. First uninstall/reinstall RSD (reboot in between). Then boot back into fastboot mode and connect the USB Cable, and make sure that it still says "Transfer Mode: USB Connected" at the bottom. Open RSD Lite and wait a couple seconds. It should look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If everything has worked so far then you're good to go. If not then post back.
P.S- Once this gets worked out you don't have to install the OTA. If you want to install SC v5 when it's released you don't need to be on the ota.

I have searched plenty. I haven't found anyone who has been locked out of their root by Supercharged V4 and been unable to flash via RSD Lite. BTW, the search function would be a lot more user friendly if it didn't have a convoluted captcha process each time.

I reinstalled RSD Lite and it still shows nothing under device. I have also tried running as administrator and both Windows 7 and Windows XP SP 2 (from the Readfile included that says it was designed for SP2).

OK...
as jim said RSD Lite is really the only way to go.. unless you're willing to try something relatively untested for the A2 that can have complications and is more complicated, and read on.
First let's see if the more complicated method will even work (if RSD Lite doesn't detect your phone then it may not...). Download THIS ZIP: View attachment fastboot.zip. Unzip it to your desktop.
Now open a command prompt (start -> search box -> "cmd" -> <enter>). Type in the following command:
Code:
cd C:\Users\[COLOR="Red"]username[/COLOR]\Desktop
change "username" for whatever your Windows username is.
Now boot your phone into fastboot mode and wait for it to say "USB Connected." Now type this command:
Code:
fastboot devices
this scans for devices connected in fastboot mode and lists them. If the list is empty then that means your computer just isn't going to work. If it lists something then post back.
EDIT oh by they way! Make sure that the port you connected your phone to has enough power. Try all the USB ports on your computer and wiggle the cable around a bit and see if RSD Lite detects your phone.
EDIT EDIT jim is correct. Are you sure you flashed the Stock Rooted Deodexed ROM before you flashed Supercharged?

Thanks, however, I posted this because I was looking for a way to get back root permissions without having to use RSD.. Since RSD does not currently work for me.
I understand your insistence on the search function, but I sincerely could not find it.
I've done some more looking at the android SDK stuff. Could I shell into it and change the directory permissions from read only to read/write, then reroot using 1-click and regain superuser permissions? The issue seems to be the SC4 made all of the system files read only again.

Post in this thread if you need help getting CM to work, or if you have a problem and need help.
This thread is about:
- Discussing Cyanogenmod on the Optimus 3D/ 4G thrill/... phones
- Asking questions about Cyanogenmod
- Answering questions posted here
- Ask for help, because you can't get it to work
- Help people who can't figure something out
This thread is made with the intent to solve these problems:
1. Not have (duplicate) threads spamming this subforum asking for help
2. Create a nice environment for the developer of CM, Arcee, to work with. He has already said that the previous solution was a mess.
Arcee is a great guy, but messy forums can be very frustrating.
I'll make a posting guide.

Before moving from lg to cm10, you did not downgrade to 21d or similar? This, atm, seems to fix problems like the imei not showing based on input from the other users. Give it a try, make sure you do all the wipes etc. and it should work, it does here.

For some people this works, for others it doesn't. I haven't tried myself, but Arcee said the baseband shouldn't matter. With that knowledge I'll be patient for a bit before I try this.
Thanks for using this thread!

True, but most succes stories i've seen have been on v21d or lower, so if he/she is dying to get it working, this might be worth the 20 min ey

Think this thread is a good idea. I'm afraid there could be the time when arcee get totally ****ed up about the "It's not working, what should I do" posts from 1000 users in the thread in which he just wanted error logs. So let's whine here: it's not working for me either lol
To let this be a little useful can you please always post the newest version and maybe changelog/bugfixes und probably working combinations in post 1? The link http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?type=nightly&device=p920 is useful as well there. This thread is btw kinda the same: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540163

This graph thing is cool, maybe we should make something similar:
Did you flash ICS before? - Yes - Downgrade and replace the u-boot & loader - etc - etc
- No - Did wipes? (Try again) - Fixed permissions? - Did you try flashing a clean KDZ? (try again) - Did you search the thread? - Still no solution? Post a q!
------------
If i may add a question/suggestion:
With all the new nightlies comming out, what would be the best way to upgrade, is it ok to flash it over the old one for sure? Since i guess more people will want to upgrade it every once in a while we might also want to add that to the TS/FP?

Today i want downgrade form Xbsall 4.0.4 to install CM10.
So first i wipe my Rom, do a Factory Reset and flash the "BOOTV21E_AP" via Smartflash from the Resurrection Guide

But the phone says everytime "not enough space free, clean up your data and try it again"

I always get this after restoring stock. The trick is to factory reset the device again after restoring stock Rom. Just restart into recovery (shutdown, hold volume down + 3D button, start phone) and do a factory reset.

See FP's reply, and while you are at it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037287
Just this part of the 5th step:
"
type fastboot flash u-boot u-boot.img
fastboot flash x-loader x-loader.img
..
fastboot reboot
"
This ensures some other remainders from your ICS flash are removed aswell (this is not directly related to your space problem, but does enhance the chance of runnig CM 10 in the end)

With all the new nightlies comming out, what would be the best way to upgrade, is it ok to flash it over the old one for sure? Since i guess more people will want to upgrade it every once in a while we might also want to add that to the TS/FP?

If you already have cm installed, you won't need to factory reset again when you want to flash a new version.
The best way to update cyanogenmod is to go to settings, about phone, cyanogenmod updates. Set the update types to include nighties. The updater will do all the work for you.

This graph thing is cool, maybe we should make something similar:
Did you flash ICS before? - Yes - Downgrade and replace the u-boot & loader - etc - etc
- No - Did wipes? (Try again) - Fixed permissions? - Did you try flashing a clean KDZ? (try again) - Did you search the thread? - Still no solution? Post a q!

[Q] htc one S red exclaimation during update or recovery

OK i got a ONE S last night and its on android 4.0.3, there was an OTA update available so i downloaded it and installed it but during installation suddenly the green logo changes to a red triangle with exclamation. I have tried factory resetting and again installing but the problem persists. i can get in that boot-locker page and also when i click on recovery i get the same green logo which changes to red triangle. Phone is working fine, but i need to update to jelly bean. On the boot locker page, on the top its written locked, Hboot-1.13. I think the phone is not rooted everything is stock.
Sorry for my vocabulary.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, this is giving me a serious headache.

I'm assuming you are in the US and on TMobile.
http://www.htc.com/us/support/news.aspx?p_id=463&p_name=htc-one-s-t-mobile
Scroll down to:
Manual system update instructions:
Follow the instructions to download HTC Sync Manager to your pc.
download the file at the bottom of the page. (download, in green font)
that is the Ruu.exe that you will run on your pc and will walk you through the update process.
It will delete all information from the device. (bye bye pictures, videos, music) save those to your pc before hand if your are able.

No, it doesn't require a rooted device.
If you go to HTC website does it offer you a similar manual update solution for you?
Since your phone is new, I am directing you to HTC website because that way you will not void your warrantee.
If you bought the phone from a local store I would go back there and show them what is happening. They will be able to correct the phone and if something goes wrong it is on them and not you.
If you bought it online, I would call support and have them try and help. Again that way you are able to return it if something is wrong.
Otherwise
http://www.androidruu.com/
you would need to know which version of the HTC One S you have (ville/ville C2)
And be able to match your CID to the correct RUU.exe
But I would not recommend that since your phone is brand new.

Ok,
Like you did before, go to bootloader and tell me what you have there.
What CID is your phone?
I'm thinking you have a S4 version of this phone as you stated your hboot was 1.13
for example mine is different, but looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And yes, you will be able to factory reset it after running a ruu.exe

So, to run the RUU, you need the drivers for your phone on your computer.
If you install HTC sync Manager from the HTC website it will install the drivers.

if you only want to install the driver
from there once you have downloaded a RUU.exe
have your phone in bootloader mode
plug your phone into PC
it should say fastboot USB (see in my picture it says HBOOT if you press power button it will enter into fastboot mode)
On your PC, double click the RUU.exe file and it will open up a installation dialogue to walk you through the rest.

Yeah, if you are all about running the various Custom ROMs that people have developed here you will be using boot.img and recovery.img to install particular ROMs.
But you don't need to worry about that right now.
By the way, I am so impressed with all of the people who come to this site who speak more than one language. I realize that most people in the world do speak more than one language. But still, it is very impressive to me.
Hopefully that Europe ruu has a suitable language for you.

Hey, I know it's been a few weeks and I don't know if you gave up or solved the problem.
I was mistaken about S-off devices easily will run any RUU.
You need to match the CID to the RUU you are going to flash. Which is easy to do when you are S-off

Yea i solved it by matching the cid then restoring through RUU. Then everything was working fine, so i updated through OTA and now am on 4.1.1.
Thanks for ur help
ps
i sold one S , now using note 3

xt926 stuck at Motorola Dual Core logo

I've not dealt with Moto's before, All my previous phone's have typically been Samsung, Nexus, and currently my LG G3.
My mom has a Verizon XT926 that from what it sounds like started an OTA update and is now stuck at the red circle, white M logo screen, that says "Dual Core"
I would call myself pretty android savvy, and have tried everything I've found so far without any luck.
Here is the current situation:
I can get into recovery, and fastboot
I have tried using RSD Lite to flash multiple versions of the stock ROM without any success
I have tried using HouseOfMoto method, also without any success
I read through SamuriHL's thread here and at droidrzr.com and tried every possible suggestion without any success
Here is a screenshot of RSD Lite
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, after attempting an RSD Lite flash, the error message on the phone is:
failed to read signature for partition aboot
downgraded security version
update gpt_main version failed
preflash validation failed for GPT
I thought the above error meant that I was trying to downgrade, but I have even attempted to flash the latest image of VZW_XT926_4.4.2-KDA20.62-10.1_CFC_1FF.xml and it still fails.
From a few of SamuriHL's posts, i get the feeling this phone has a "corrupt partition table" issue that I don't believe anyone has been able to find a solution for.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys!

.10 is not the most current OTA, that's why you're getting the downgrade error. Look in the general section for the thread with the .15 update.

Same deal, phone returns "fail"
This time it doesn't specify that its a downgraded security version, it just flat out fails. Pretty sure the OTA fried this thing. Oh well.....

you apparently missed some key points in your research, obvious just by looking at your screenshot.
you need to completely remove the "tz" and "gpt" lines from the xml file, then flash again.
your having a pretty basic issue, thats fairly easily fixed.
.... and yes, if it comes to it, i can easily guide you to fixing the partition table, but that doesnt appear necessary at this point.

it has been said by myself and others easily a hundred times, i would rather not dig through threads looking for it.
when we post certain tools and firmwares, we just remove those lines before you get them to avoid this issue. but firmwares posted more for general use will still have those lines, as they are sometimes needed.
if you were to type "gpt error rsd android" into google, im sure there would be many post in threads suggesting the removal of certain lines from the xml as i have suggested.
hope that helps..
edit, added some search terms, just gpt error was too vague.

Still doesn't matter, fails again.

Already tried that, and DROID_RAZR_HD_Utility_1.4gpt KK, and DROID_RAZR_HD_Utility_1.3.gpt fix.
I'm pretty sure the phone is beyond repair. It just crazy to me because I've been using android since just after the Dream, and of all the horrible things I've done to them, I've never bricked one. Yet a simple OTA from Verizon on a bone stock Rzr HD bricks it, lol.

unless you grabbed that one from a thread, then you havent tried it. its not the same as either of those you mentioned, its newer.
it may be bricked, you will know after you flash that file. there is nothing else im aware of to try.
if everything says it failed when using the utility, then its toast.

What is it doing can you get to the red motorola logo. If you can then try and plug in charger and while connected to charger, when it gets to the red M logo hold power and volume up and volume down at the same time. when screen goes off release right away and then as quick as you can hold the same three buttons untill you get to fastboot mode and then let go. if it gets to fastboot mode then it might just be a bad battery. If it does not then it is bricked and you would need a fastboot cable to get into fatboot mode and flash stock firmware and bring back the device to life.

I've not dealt with Moto's before, All my previous phone's have typically been Samsung, Nexus, and currently my LG G3.
My mom has a Verizon XT926 that from what it sounds like started an OTA update and is now stuck at the red circle, white M logo screen, that says "Dual Core"
I would call myself pretty android savvy, and have tried everything I've found so far without any luck.
Here is the current situation:
I can get into recovery, and fastboot
I have tried using RSD Lite to flash multiple versions of the stock ROM without any success
I have tried using HouseOfMoto method, also without any success
I read through SamuriHL's thread here and at droidrzr.com and tried every possible suggestion without any success
Here is a screenshot of RSD Lite
Also, after attempting an RSD Lite flash, the error message on the phone is:
failed to read signature for partition aboot
downgraded security version
update gpt_main version failed
preflash validation failed for GPT
I thought the above error meant that I was trying to downgrade, but I have even attempted to flash the latest image of VZW_XT926_4.4.2-KDA20.62-10.1_CFC_1FF.xml and it still fails.
From a few of SamuriHL's posts, i get the feeling this phone has a "corrupt partition table" issue that I don't believe anyone has been able to find a solution for.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys!

6.0.1 OTA for stock rooted system

Hi, sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just noticed Sprint pushed an OTA for 6.0.1 to my stock rooted device (S-on) and I'm just trying to figure out what the best way to get this OTA is going to be. I'm assuming I shouldn't download and install the OTA as-is due to the TWRP recovery and root.
After looking around a bit, it seems like the only option available is to use a stock 6.0.0 RUU file in the bootloader and basically reset the entire device back to factory settings (losing all apps and data in the process presumably), installing the OTA, then re-flashing TWRP and re-rooting.
I guess what I'm asking is - 1. is this the correct way to go about doing this? and 2. is there any better alternative perhaps that doesn't involve losing my data?
Thanks in advance guys.

Been googling around for the last few days and scouring this board for just as long and still haven't come to a definitive conclusion. From what little I've seen the documentation on this seems kind of spotty and I'm just wondering which direction to head in. Any help on this would be much appreciated.

Safest way.. ruu back to stock everything take ota and re root/download apps etc...

Thanks for the reply, man.. Thats kind of what I had gathered pouring over all these articles and board posts. I went ahead and RUU'd back to 1.10.651.1 for sprint.. Literally just moments ago though I downloaded the OTA and hit install and got presented with an error screen during the update. Phone rebooted back into the system normally, and I went to check the version # only to see it unchanged, along with a prompt to install the OTA for 1.57.651.1 again.
Any idea why this might've happened or how to remedy it?

What was the error? You may have to relock bootloader to accept the ota...unsure of how they are with their device,GSM device I have doesnt need relocked...(S-Off as well so)

Also the 1.57.651.1 RUU is available... Why not use it?

Thats the weird part, it didnt give an error message, just that icon in the image I added to my last post. forelock the bootloader would be kind of surprising... Might give that a try in the morning after I find out if it can be re-unlocked.
EDIT: Ohhh I just saw your last edit, i didnt see that before, i'll use that then. Thank you!!!

Download the .651 ruu,reboot phone into download mode and run it... Should be up to date after that for a bit id think
---------- Post added at 12:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 AM ----------
How did you unlock it to begin with? HTC Dev site? If so then should be able to use the same unlocktoken.bin from before... Or can resubmit and get another one...

Thats precisely what I did. Unlocked it with the HTC Dev Token. I gotta admit, I was pretty surprised that I had an OTA so soon after getting the phone and unlocking / rooting it. Just when I had everything set up how I liked it
I just finished flashing the 651 RUU and its just optimizing the apps now, but looks like it should do it!

Actually.. I've hit another wall now tryign to achieve root with this. I've got TWRP back on the device, and I'm using WinDroid Toolkit to flash SuperSU to it. It'll show that it's pushing it, then drop into recovery and naturally ask for me to wipe the /data partition since it's encrypted, before proceeding to install the supersu.zip package.
The only problem is, there doesn't appear to be any supersu.zip anywhere on the device once it gets into recovery, either before or after the data wipe. Any idea where it's going?

And didnt mean that in a snotty,sarcastic way... Those tools sometimes cause issues that could be avoided is all I was getting at...

I want to join this conversation.
The A9 of my mom got is a Vodaphone UK version (cid: vodap001) and got the update message to version 1.62.161.2
I've rooted the device and installed TWRP.
So now i relocked the bootloader, installed the firmware.zip that was inside the OTA Download which i've copied from Update-App Path.
If i now want to manualy update the OTA-zip with fastboot in download-mode, i got Error 7.
If i want to update with original OTA updater Up, it stops at 25% with the red cross.
So what should i do now?
There is noch previous RUU-file for this firmware-version thats why i've already updated to the recovery from this OTA-update.
I hope someone can help with it.
Thanks,
Bond

I have to agree with Wonders_never_cease about the toolkits. I have used many different ones and they are great from a few things but not all things go right using them unlike adb/fastboot. You should have better results from using adb/fastboot here.
That being said.....it would be easier to achieve root by simply going to full stock using RUU or system/boot.img in fastboot, flashing TWRP, format data, reboot into TWRP, flash supersu 2.74 from your SD card either by itself to obtain normal root or follow steps here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63197935&postcount=2 for systemless root. it's that simple...or at least was for me. I never could get pushing supersu through adb right or to work really.

You will not be able to apply the OTA update if you are not completely stock including being with stock recovery. Having your bootloader unlocked will not be an issue so no need to relock it like you did. Use a system/boot/recovery.img to restore stock completely, or whatever RUU need. Then accept the OTA or flash it manually, then reroot. Thats really the only way you will be able to get that to work.....

Thanks for your answer.
But how to get complete stock without nandroid or RUU?
The Firmware.zip of the 1.62.161.2 OTA Update was installed without Errors. But as i already mentioned i Need stock System/boot-files of my last Version (1.62.161.1) to get this partitions to stock. And they are not available anywhere.

Ah so sorry, it was 4 am when i was replying so i missed that part on it installing correct, or confused it with the other question i was replying to at that same time haha......anyhoo....i looked for you as well and nothing was found on my end as well so I think you may be in the exact situation i was in when i bought the sprint variant of the A9. HTC has faults like all companies but the one that really pisses me off is their lack of proper support on ALL variants especially concerning firmware. The phone was released and i found NO RUU on their site or anywhere online and of course not many people had my specific variant which meant no one on here or anywhere had the means to get me the stock firmware i too needed to restore my phone.
The ONLY reason anyone here, who has SPRINT US VERSION, is able to then and NOW get the RUU on the HTC website is directly due to my incessant badgering and yelling at HTC damn near daily about having a handset on the market for sale but no firmware for it in case of tech service needs. You may have to do the same thing sadly.
I assume you have checked htc UK site for the rom downloads......contact their tech support and see whats up. Till then, like i had to when the sprint version came out....you'll have to just keep checking back on here and anywhere online for someone else who may post what you need or some other kind of solution.

Thanks mcbright80,
as you already said, HTC resists and says RUUs are only available in the US. I'm excited on their reaction that there are still lower RUU-versions of my UK-edition.
It is an annoying mess with all these different versions for tons of carriers, countrys and so on.
