I tried installing unofficial software.
Managed to get as far as installing latest recovery TWRP.
The phone is unlocked, but I couldn't get it S-off. But even with s-on the software installed, just the camera and other two things did not work.
Know when official cyanogenmod is released i tried installing it with no luck sadly.
The first thing now what i get when booted into download mode is:
htc download mode
*** unlocked***
htc_himauhl pvt s-on
LK-1.0.0.0000
Radio-01.01_u11440261_56.02.50306g_2_f
opendsp-v22.2.6-00452-m8994_0318
os-1.40.771.1
may 7 2015,19:35:33(541162)
and at the bottom in yellow letters:
Security checking failed not_find_smart io
file /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/opjaimg.zip file not found
Even if i put that file on sd card still the same.
Next when booted into teamwin (v2.8.7.0) recovery and trying to install official nightly i get the following:
assert failed: hima.verify_trustzone("tz.bf.3.0.r1-00142") == "1"
E:ERROR executing updater binary in zip '/.......
Error flashing zip
And that's it. Been told that the firmware needs updating, but i can find only the executable file which is not working as the phone is running on unofficial cyanogenmod and would not install. So basically i'm stuck now and not sure if the phone is bricked or can still install the official cyanogenmod?
Sunshine won't work as well to s-off the phone.
Please help, providing the links for the right software and files needed for this job and if possible step by step instructions.
Thank you in advance, Tom
Hey guys,
So for a couple of hours I've tried quite a few of guides, but I can't fix my problem.
I'm trying to flash the stock ROM from Oneplus, but I get an error that says the following (just typing everything so I don't miss anything for you guys)
Installing '/sdcard/Oneplus_Bacon_OxygenOS-201601190107.zip'
Checking for MD5 file
Skipping MD5 check: no MD5 file found
This package is for "Oneplus" devices, this is a "bacon"
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/Oneplus_Bacon_OxygenOS-201601190107.zip'
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/Oneplus_Bacon_OxygenOS-201601190107.zip'
Updating partition details..."
I currently have no OS on. When I go to the Reboot button and press any of the buttons there, it firstly comes up saying that I have no OS installed. When clicking OK to that, it comes up with a message that my system is not rooted. I have an option to "Do Not Install" and the "Swipe to Install". The same thing happens no matter what I press (the phone just restarts instantly"
I'm running TWRP v2.7.0.0
Any help is greatly appreciated
Using TWRP to install stock rom's
In most cases TWRP cannot install "Stock" roms, mostly due to an issue with "updater scripts." If you want to use the Stock rom than you'll have to go back to the Stock recovery.
Side note: I wanted to use OxygenOS on mine; however, I wanted to keep it rooted so I found a "TWRP safe" version of OxygenOS online. Be cautious if you attempt that because you'll more than likely lose functionality of your Sim/Radio (will have to flash a baseband in the recovery) if you decide to flash another custom Rom over OxygenOS.
Use oneplus one flashtool or bacon toolkit to flast stock rom. Find in tools sections for flashtools
Hello everybody, I hope to find help here.
My phone is the HTC One A9, Europe Version ("hiaeuhl"). Recovery is TWRP 3.0.2-0.
The background story is that I already managed to install Cyanogenmod after downgrading the original ROM to Version 1.10 and unlocked the bootloader with the HTC Unlock tool. I also managed to decrypt the device.
I'd like to update my system regularly, but unfortunately the last running version is the cm-13.0-20160904-NIGHTLY-hiaeuhl.zip from September 4th.
If I try to install the latest versions of Cyanogenmod (for example from September 9th) I always get the error
hiae.veryfy.trustzone() failed to read current TZ version: -2
Updater process ended with ERROR 7
I already tried to remove the lines that check this in the file updater_script inside the ROM's zip, then I could install the update, but afterwards I was stuck in a boot loop.
The error has nothing to do with the encryption, it apears with and without device encryption, and it has nothing to do which system (original or custom) is installed before flashing. It is also indifferent if I try the update via the system's update function or directly in TWRP. It's the fact that the Cyanogenmod version from September 4th is the last working for me. I definetly chose the right one for hiaeuhl, but it seems the developers have added a feature that makey my device incompatible to this ROM.
If there is anything I can do to update my system again, please let me know.
Have the same issue.
We need to update it, but I don't know how
jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/NIGHTLIES-3351
Here is how I could solve the issue:
- flashing the latest stock firmware (and let it possibly completely update)
- install TWRP via fastboot
- from TWRP a factory reset
- install new version of the Cyanogenmod from TWRP
It worked for me, now I can use my beloved custom Rom
The Same Problem
I have exactly the same Problem, last working CM-Update was the 3rd September
Did you try my solution? With the older CM Rom versions for the HTC A9 you had to downgrade the stock rom, otherwise the CM wouldn't have started after the installation. Now it seems that the stock rom has to be the latest one (for me the 1.56) that you are able to flash the latest CM versions.
I do not have the latest stock Rom, my os is 1.27.161.6, seems actually cm needs 1.57, i am unlocked and s-off
You should probably find the right version for your phone here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-a9/general/wip-ruu-htc-one-a9-t3240344
You should take the one with the right cid for your phone (which you can find with "fastboot getvar all" in the fastboot mode)
Thanks, i will try it and report
The last build i found for my version is 1.27. this is what i have
Hmmm... then I guess you have to wait until the new version appears in the forum. Seems that you have a device with vodafone branding. Since you already set S-off you also have the possibility to change your cid to one of the existing newer firmwares.
Is there a solution without going back to stock?
I'm not an expert, but I don't think so. It seems that the version number of the stock rom is stored somewhere even after changing the system to Cyanogenmod, and this version has to be the latest one. So unfortunately, as far as I know, you'll have to do the flashing procedure again...
thanks Silberhase, now i am on CM 13 again. Thats what i did: wrote Supdercid, searched a ruu-version for my build, found a 1.56.401.70 version, flashed this, then flashed twrp 3.0.2.0 again, factory reset - without factory reset i was not able to install cm, format data, recovery, latest cm update, flash gapps, restore my other data with titanium, done....
I'm glad to hear it worked for you!
Yes, but next Problem or better i actually do not know what problems will raise. After updating today successfully to last cm build phone is encrypted... TWRP requires password for decryption. Problem all over forums. Today i habe no fun to Format data again and restore all.
That's also what I experienced. Other users reported that the current TWRP version 3.0.2.0 can't handle the encryption of the HTC One A9. And every update will encrypt the device again. As a workaround you can do this:
- copy the downloaded update from /sdcard/cmupdater to the external memory card
- boot to the recovery (when asked for password push the cancel button) and install both the update and the gapps again (without wiping anything) from the memory card.
Its a pity, all worked perfectly. Installed last cm.. Which encrypted phone. Restored my backup. All Working. Updated apps, want backup again.... .... Error opening /system/addon.d (not a directory)..error in generating tarlist......Create tarfork()
Process Ended with error 255
I'm trying to help as much as I can even though I have no experience with all this. I never did a backup
Maybe you find the answer here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/e-createtarfork-process-error255-t3302462
Maybe it helps to mount "system" in TWRP and then delete /system/addon.d. But it seems that this step has to be repeated before every backup.
Any news to this theme? Is Twrp able to handle A9 again in new Version?
The recent version 3.0.2.0 of TWRP is available for the A9 but can't handle it's encryption. It works anyway if you are willing to use some workarounds.
Hello.
I have a Pixel with stock Android that was rooted with Chainfire SuperSU 2.78SR3
Last night I've noticed that the phone isn't rooted anymore and has installed the Feb security update OTA. (I only had the Nov update installed).
I've tried rerooting using the same method (Fastboot boot) and got stuck in a bootloop.
I had to flash a clean stock rom to get it out of the bootloop.
Next I installed TWRP. That worked.
Next I tried installing a ZIP version of SuperSU 2.78SR4. The Zip installs but when I boot into Android SuperSU says that the phone isn't rooted.
Anyone had anything similar happen to them?

You might need to flash back to stock to fix this. If you do let us know so we can help you save your data and apps.
You used the wrong SU. You need 2.79 SR3. Note the 9 on there, you used 2.78.

Copy it to your phone and boot to TWRP. Then INSTALL it from TWRP.
Hello there.
I unlocked my bootloader a long while ago, then flashed TWRP on my TW U11+. Now recently I have seen that there's an update and I get the popup from my updater.apk on my HTC U11+.
My phone is on 1.24.709.7 update. And it's I think most definitely the ASIA_TW version.
Mid - 2Q4D10000
Cid - HTC__621
So I try to update but of course fail because my recovery was TWRP so of course that it did not work. Then I hear that you need to have stock recovery, so what I do is I get stock recovery.img, go to download mode and flash it through the command "flashboot flash recovery recovery.img. I get the success command and I reboot and try download the OTA once again, then I try to update it. It does go to stock recovery but then it "updates" til 25% and then it's stuck. Then after like 10 seconds it just simply gives my this Red Triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle of it. So I press power button and vol down to get off that mode and that's it. It won't update to the newest OTA.
I flashed 1.24.709.7 recovery at first. It didn't work then I flashed 1.24.709.8 recovery but still no avail.
Can you guys please help me? I really don't know what I am doing wrong.
Thanks in advance
I am having the exact same problem. I wish I had the HTC__621 recovery, but I haven't been able to find the correct one.
Hopefully somebody will see this. Every link that looks like the right thing is dead.
Same problem
I had the same problem, too.
But I find a way to update to 1.24.709.8.
That is: I decide to flash the 1.24.709.8 version's RUU .
Hope this can help you.
U11+ All TW version's image and OTA :
//drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kNE8rN8yUBPo9vux9G3CMvUzg3cg0lQ3
Thanks for the link.
However the problem that I'm experiencing is that whenever I flash either 1.24.709.7 or 1.24.709.8 RUU. It just won't flash over fastboot. So what I do is I put it on my SD card then put the file and rename it to like 2Q4DIMG.zip and go to recovery and still won't flash it correctly.
I'll try it again today to see what error code I get from it.
Did you unlocked or rooted your u11+?
Sorry for the late reply man.
My HTC u11plus is unlocked and I also have rooted my phone via magisk.
You can't update with official ota if unlocked, you need to relock and have the stock recovery. Relock will wipe your data I think
You can OTA with unlock, but you must run pure stock ROM. I RUU my phone and successfully apply the OTA.
Magisk did modify /boot partition so OTA wont apply with Magisk. You have to restore stock boot, OTA, then patch the boot again to preserve Magisk. Also if you use 3rd party recovery you have to restore the stock one.
All partition image can be found in the RUU with https://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/tool-universal-htc-ruu-rom-decryption-t3382928 but you must make sure you flash the version match your current system. If not the only way might be RUU your phone.
I have also had the exact same issue with updating the latest OTA update. I have TW model, it was unlocked and rooted with magisk. I relocked bootloader, stock boot img and still the update wouldn't install. I even tried flashing 1.24.709.7 RUU in downloader mode but failed remote: 22 RU_HEADER_ERROR.
Would love any ideas or help.
*UPDATE*
Finally was able to update to 1.24.709.8 OTA. I needed up unlocking the bootloader again, then downloaded the 1.24.709.7 full image from
drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kNE8rN8yUBPo9vux9G3CMvUzg3cg0lQ3
Extracted the rar file and manually installed the boot, recovery and system images separately and rebooted. Downloaded the update and installed, everything worked sweet!!

Thank you very much for this. I will try this tomorrow or something.
I will post my results here.
Btw is there any update for Emea region? They did one a month ago for TW models and since then no words about Europe and Middle East
Does anyone have a link to 1.24.401.7 9.0_CL1010171 ? I'm trying to find stock recovery that matches with stock rom and can't find it anywhere.
Magisk and TWRP installed at the moment.
I've got stock boot.img backed up before installing Magisk but there was no way to boot (without flashing) TWRP in order to backup stock recovery that came with U11+.
Cheers
