try, after backing up your boot, boot.img from first page. for me they worked all. if not you can reflash your backup.
Yes, that img from first post (a9-ee-635503.7.zip) works on my A9 and I have root (but S-On).

I'm looking for stock boot.img because I have no backup

ah, okay. Thats not quite easy. If you have root then you can set S-OFF and flash any RUU
That eliminates also a "frozen boot" (like djmouse)

Anyone else who rooted with this method tried to format an SD card as internal and its been reported as Corrupted?

It is for me after trying 3 brand new cards. Whole post about it in Q&A section. Couple others having sane issue. Think its due to root and/or being s-on still. Never used it before, but plan to try Sunshine this afternoon to get s-off and see if issue is still there.

hello all I have flashed the AT&T RUU and am trying to relock the boot loader. would someone be able to tell me how to do this. I have S-ON and the stock image flashed just need to lock it up before sending it back.

Update: Looks like I also need a stock recovery img if anyone knows where to get one that would be great as well.

If you flashed an RUU you already have stock recovery.

And the instructions to lock the device are in the same place as the ones to unlock it, on the HTCDev website: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/unlock-instructions/page-4/ (after signing in, look at step 11)

I have root, and S-On.
But I still have problems to format the external SD card as the internal memory.
Has anyone of you the external SD card formatted as internal memory, So you can move Apps to the external SD card?

c:\Android>fastboot getvar all
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: htc_hiaeuhl
(bootloader) version: 1.0
(bootloader) version-main: 1.10.111.7
(bootloader) boot-mode: download
(bootloader) version-baseband: [email protected]

Thanks Captain. Will read up on that now.

Supersu 2.62 beta has been released fixing the SD-card issue, so now you can just 1) unlock, 2) flash TWRP, 3) Format Data, 4) reboot recovery and 5) flash the zip as per Captain's post.

Just for clarity, the SD-card fix isn't the internal format issue, pre-2.62 stopped the A9 from mounting SD-cards.
