Hello everybody,
I can't update my phone HTC One A9 to nougat using RUU_HIA_AERO_WHL_N70_SENSE80GP_SPCS_MR_Sprint_WWE_2.18.651.2.exe, an error 10 occurs when updating. After contacting HTC Support, they tell me that my phone have three changes on three parts (the bootloader status (formerly UNLOCKED, now RELOCKED), (2) the security status (S-OFF) and (3) the Recovery tool (TWRP). Since all three have been changed i must proceed restoring the stock features step by step. The first thing they recommend is to restore the Android Recovery tool to the stock recovery.
For the bootloader is OK , it is now relocked, but i cant restore the recovery.
I need your help, my phone is not stable at all.
thanks in advace.

Unlock bootloader again
Change cid to correct version
You may have to do updates manually up to latest to be able to flash 2.18 RUU
Boot phone into download mode
Run the RUU If get an error try suggested manual updates
Good luck

The first post made me lol, HTC CS as bad as usual, they don't know their own product.

Re-locking the bootloader wasn't necessary
Flashing back the stock recovery neither

You are getting error 132 because you are trying to flash a Nougat ruu (2.x.xxx.x) but your phone still runing the Marshmallow firmware (1.x.xxx.x). Normally this is not a problem to update HTC phones using a RUU but this particular model of HTC is problematic because they changed signature key between version 1.x and 2.x which mean even if you are trying to flash the right RUU version for your phone, you'll get a signature error if flashing from marshmallow to nougat.

This is easily fixable, manually update your firmware to Nougat (so your phone will have the new key) using fastboot then flash the Nougat RUU
