[COLLECTION] RUU Nougat & Marshmallow - HTC One A9

[alray]

I use the decriypt-htc tool for zip 1.56.401.70 but file resulting from firmware is different size, is it okay alike ??

My file is missing dzdata 16 & 32 .hdr & .img

Is your phone S-On or S-OFF ?

dzdata are the files that will wipe you /data partition when flashing the ruu.

I installed factory recovery and closed bootloader does not let me install ota when this installer is 25%
HTC ONE A9
sorry for my translation ??

Would like to help but you are refusing to answer a simple question.

2 pages back you were asking question about the "echo -ne "1.56.401.2\x00\x00" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p28 bs=1 seek=2208" command

If you're phone is S-OFF you don't need to use this command, its a trick used on S-ON phone to kinda bypass the version-main check that occurs when flashing a RUU (because downgrading is not allowed when S-ON). When phone is S-OFF, the version-main on your phone doesn't matters (downgrading is allowed). Only the CID and MID must match the android-info.txt so there is no need to change the version-main using that command before flashing a firmware.zip or a ruu.zip/.exe if your phone is S-off

Will not harm your phone but totally useless.

no no and no A lots of typo, unwanted spaces

• it's echo not eco
• There are no spaces in "1.10.401.1\x00\x00"
• It's block not bloque (French auto-correct? lol)
• There are no spaces in of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p28
• There are no space in bs=1
• It's seek not buscan
• there are no space in seek=2208

echo -ne "1.56.401.2\x00\x00" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p28 bs=1 seek=2208

These commands can be dangerous to your phone if there is a single typo, particularly everything after of= . there are like 16 errors in your command...


You might all want to read the discussion we had, @Didusieq and me, in this thread. There might be something to try but I wouldn't recommend it (see post 14).

Otherwise, the safest would be to either go S-OFF or wait for the 2.17.401.2 RUU

I tried this after the command to write version i go Permission denied. Why is that?

You are using a regular shell, you need a root shell (# not $)

adb shell
su

If thank you I knew, it was for friends of htcmania.com who have s-on. But having your firmware of 1.56.401.70 can later flash the ruu.zip 1.56.401.70?

The phone is S-On, unlocked and no root, full stock, SU not working, or maybe I'm doing something wrong :-s

If your rom isnt rooted, use twrp (see FAQ at post 2)

I can't write or boot TWRP because as I said earlier the phone has bootloader locked, s-on and no root (full stock).

Can't unlock the bootloader ?

 

[alexxero]

Can't unlock the bootloader ?

Well, that will void my warranty, so i don't want that, i'm still remaining on stock after so what will be the point?

You only have to wait for 2.17.401.2.zip

Well youve said "unlocked" at post 828 thats why Ive suggested to use twrp.

Thanks for the info!

Anyway if you read the Last pages of this thread and also the other one in the q&a youll see that it's useless to change your version-main since we also need a signed firmware.zip of 1.56.401.70 (or older) to be able to downgrade a s-on phone from 2.xx.401.x to 1.xx.401.x. We only have a decrypted firmware. So atm the only way to downgrade from N to MM requires s-off. So yeah youre kinda stuck there until there is a 2.17.401.2 ruu (that shouldnt take too long) or youll have to go s-off. Sorry

And this apply to everyone in the same situation (S-ON + 2.16.401.3). Be patient everyone or go s-off. Sorry for everyone stuck there but we couldnt know that HTC was going to skip this version and go directly to 2.17 when we added the 2.16.401.3 ruu to this thread.

UL is GSM / LTE, WHL is CDMA / LTE

Why would you want to convert to WHL? Ppl are usually doing the opposite. You are going to use Sprint USA? I don't even think Sprint is allowing non Sprint phone to register on their network.

Afaik the letters indicate the compatible networks

U = GSM/WCDMA
L = FDD LTE
H = TDD LTE
T = TD-SDCMA
W = CDMA2000/WCDMA
D = Dual sim

So the UHL variant is GSM/WCDMA/FDD LTE and the WHL is CDMA2000/WCDMA/FDD LTE/TDD LTE. CDMA2000 is only present in the US and South Korea (and a lil bit in japan).
