You need to be S-offed and boot loader should be unlocked in order to flash ruu

Not really, With S-ON you can flash signed ruu of same or higher version with bootloader LOCKED or RE-LOCKED.

S-OFF is only needed to flash unsigned RUU or for downgrading, and with S-OFF you can flash a RUU with a locked/relocked or unlocked bootloader.

DId you MD5 check the ruu before flashing? error 152 is for ''image error'' and the four triangles with exclamation marks means the ruu did not flash completely.

Edit: So you were on 4.19.401.11 before flashing 4.19.401.9 ? You can't downgrade with S-ON

The issue was that before flashing the RUU, the phone firmware was higher than the RUU firmware. The phone was 4.19.401.11 while the RUU is 4.19.401.9. S-OFF is required to flash a lower firmware

Your solution:
1) Unlock bootloader
2) Flash TWRP 2.6.3.3
3) adb sideload ARHD
4) S-OFF using Firewater
5) Then relock/lock the bootloader. Remove TAMPERED if you want. Then flash the RUU

(you can set the bootloader to LOCKED and remove the TAMPERED flag if S-OFF)

I really don't know if there is a solution, maybe we could ask @nkk71 if he have an idea....

OP is stuck in ruu mode after an incomplete ruu flash from 4.19.401.11 to 4.19.401.9. S-ON, bootloader relocked (not able to unlock again). THe only option in bootloader is RUU in orange.

That screenshot does not look nice!

you're firmware is in limbo... from the looks of it, you did the first flash, but didn't do the second flash.

So first make sure the RUU you have is not corrupt, the MD5 should be 9AD4111CE86981E3DFFCCE6D9EE80551

Second, do you still have a custom recovery installed, or a rooted ROM?
