I understand instructions have been given for going to color OS to CM11S but this update has a few extra files. Please tell me which ones I need to flash in fastboot from the following and in which order?
FIles:
boot.img
cache.img
emmc_appsboot.mbn
filesmap
flash-radio.sh
logo.bin
md5sum-fastboot.md5
NON-HILOS.bin
recovery.img
rpm.mbn
sbl1.mbn
sdi,mbn

Why don't you use the command fastboot update <filename.zip>
Hello everyone,
I was attempting to downgrade to 25R from the latest update. I was rooted and and TWPR and was following the guide from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/orig-development/discussion-cyanogenmod-11s-t2840305
I had backups but everything got erased and I have nothing to flash from internal storage. I no longer have a custom recovery or a root or an OS on the phone and thats why its stuck at the android screen.
Can anyone help me with this? I would like to put the phone back to 25R.
UPDATE: I was able to install custom recovery. I don't know what to do from this point. I have a 25R zip file but when I try to flash that, it fails.
Thanks,
Sal
I take it you can get to fastboot (bootloader) mode? If so, it'll be straight-forward doing it that way.
Get the CM11S zip you want and extract the contents. Put the OPO into fast boot mode and open your command line.
Then do each command manually (copy/paste):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash dbi sdi.mbn
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
fastboot flash LOGO logo.bin
fastboot reboot

Worked for me and others when I was flashing in and out of ROMs.
mid: 2PQ910000
cid: HTC__621
That's the phone's details.
I have no back up (cause im an idiot) and Im on CM13 with TWRP and the sound is very low. RUU won't work !
This is a HUGE problem for me because I need to wake up for work early and the alarm is sow low I don't hear it
Can anyone please post a link to a flashable zip / TWRP backup so I can safely return to stock ?
THANK YOU !!!
Post fastboot getvar all minus serial no & imei no . -- download mode
Try Viper4Android for a quick volume boost solution, then you can take your time finding the RUU for your device

Here's my issue. Some time back I installed TWRP in order to install the Pixel Launcher as a system app. When Nougat came out I tried to install the ota. No go. So I installed a stock recovery and relocked the bootloader. Still no luck. I've tried every way possible to install Nougat: ruu.exe, from sd card, flash through adb. Nothing.
I think my stock recovery is problematic. When I try and get into it through the bootloader I get the dreaded red triangle with exclamation mark. So I've tried two ways of extracting the recovery.img from the Nougat update. I've used process monitor and the trick of looking in %temp% after starting the ruu.exe. I get the correct size zip, but when I unzip, whether through 7zip or winzip, I just get a series of 22 smaller zips and have no idea where in all those the recovery image is hiding.
Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong or where I can download the nougat recovery image for sprint?

The recovery isn't related to anything in the RUU process, it doesn't matter what version you have. If you want to upgrade from marshmallow to Nougat using a RUU you'll first need to update the firmware so your phone can read HTC's new digital signature, without doing that you'll always get signature errors when flashing the ruu. You can find the sprint RUU and firmware in my RUU collection thread (general section).
FYI, ruu are encrypted. You can't simply unzip these files. You need to decrypt using the correct decryption key.
Thank you. It's been a while since I've dived down into a phone. Is there a step by step on how to update the firmware?
So, tried to update the firmware. Here's the result (after doing the "fastboot oem rebootRUU" step):

Sorry I thought your phone was S-OFF, this firmware package is decrypted so it can't be flashed on a S-ON phone. If you can find the 2.18.651.2 ota zip file, you can extract the signed firmware from it. (signed version can be flashed with S-ON). You should be able to get the ota file from your phone by selecting "download and install later". Once downloaded you can transfer the ota from your phone to your computer and extract the firmware.zip file from it using winrar / 7zip.
There's another thing I don't understand about this.
The FAQ directions in https://forum.xda-developers.com/one-a9/general/wip-ruu-htc-one-a9-t3240344 say to " rename the RUU zip file '2PQ9IMG.zip'". But there is no RUU zip file. There is RUU.EXE and the firmware zip file.

These instructions are for flashing ruu in zip format. how to flash.exe ruu explained just below.
.zip ruu can be extracted from the .exe version if needed (on some pc, a .exe ruu can be problematic, e.g. you double click the file to launch the process and nothing happen...)

Btw if you can share your firmware.zip extracted from the OTA it would be really nice for other Sprint users in the same situation. I wasn't able to find the Sprint ota zip file anywhere yet.

That's what I need! Thanks! Any idea where the dl is saved on the phone? I should have noted that I was s-on. Sorry.

For the M9 it was in data/data/com.htc.updater/files I guess it should be similar for the A9. Maybe someone else could confirm this...
Well, I'm dead in the water. I've tried every way possible to dl the ota, but when I go to /android/data/com/htc.updater/files there is nothing there. A 2.18.651.2 ota zip file is nowhere to be found. If anyone has that for spring I would love to get my hands on it.
