My HTC One M7 (UK O2) was prompting me to update to the latest operating system.
Eventually I succumbed and installed the update. The phone is stock although I had unlocked the bootloader in preparation for experimenting with new operating systems (I'm a noob but curious about experimenting).
After installing, the phone rebooted and wound up on a screen with a red exclamation mark in a picture of a phone.
Sometimes it boots into the white Android startup screen, then shuts down and goes throught the whole startup cycle in a loop
I can get it into bootloader mode but none of the options presented there such as factory reset seem to do anything.
I don't think it's a hardwear problem as it seems to be a direct result of trying to install the update.
I would send it in for a warranty repair but I think that as I have unlocked then relocked the bootloader and it shows a 'relocked' flag then that voids the warranty, is that right?
Any help to sort this mess out would be appreciated.
Thanks

During unlocking bootloader some files deleted and during update ota checks file integrity so file found missing and update stops
So basically you have to restore that files
Or RUU update can be found here
But it will delete your all data photo songs contact apps so backup them

Thanks Yatindroid,
I don't think I can restore the files so I need to use the RUU. Can you tell me how to identify the correct file?
Thanks

This file seems to be corrupt/ can't be opened, downloaded it 3 times, can you link an alternative or explain the things that I need to consider in order to be able to choose an RUU myself.

This file is not corrupted, its encrypted, you can't open it. Want to know if its corrupted? MD5 value is what you want to check.
If the MD5 is ok then flash the zip.

Can you explain what is happening when I try to flash it over to the phone.
I go through all the steps and when I execute the flash command for this zip file it says 'Preprocess_file : Cannot open file RUU.zip' This lead me to believe it was defective in some way. What am I missing?

To eliminate any doubt about corrupted file, the only thing you have to do is to check the md5 value. ANd like we already said, the file is encrypted you can't open an encrypted zip. Just check the md5 to confirm the file is good.

you need learn flashing RUU zip
reboot your phone to fastboot mode (same as you posted pic )
setup adb folder find miniSDK HERE and Here
Download htc fastboot HERE copy it adb folder rename it fastboot.exe (rename old fastboot to other name)
open adb folder put your RUU zip there rename it RUU.zip
connect your phone with PC
your phone should be locked/relocked
at adb folder open CMD (shift + right click)
type command below
Code:
fastboot devices
(will show attached phone to PC match serial no)
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
(reboot phone to flashing ruu mode)
Code:
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
(wait it will take time 8-10 minutes it will show successfully at last if not repeat same command immediately)
Code:
fastboot reboot-bootloader
( it is last and important step of flashing)
now see new version showing at phone details
reboot to system
RUU
Thanks for taking the time to look at this Yatindroid.
I followed your instructions but there seems to be a problem with the RUU file.
When I execute the 'flash zip' command I get an 'unable to read zip message!
The file I have has been recommended by several people.
Am I handling this file incorrectly?
This is the file I am using. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934541097
All I did was rename the file RUU.zip and move it to the ADB folder.
Thanks for the help.

put RUU.zip in fastboot/adb folder
name should be RUU.zip not RUU.zip.zip
use htc fastboot rename that to fastboot
RUU
I changed the name to just RUU, I thought the filename had to include the .zip term.
Now it tells me that it cannot open RUU.zip.

check md5
fastboot flash zip ( pressing tab will show files in fastboot folder press tab until you got ruu.zip )
Already checked the md5 and it's ok.
What is the best thing to do? Just try a new RUU?

You have to flash it in bootloader/FASTBOOT USB; rename file to rom.zip and place in your adb/fastboot folder.
Code:
[B][I]adb reboot bootloader[/I][/B]
After that, type:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot oem rebootRUU [/I][/B]
NOTE: You should see a silver HTC logo come up on your phone after executing this command.
NOTE: if this command freezes, just disconnect the USB cable and hold the power and volume down buttons until the device reboots. Then, repeat the steps above again.
Finally:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip rom.zip[/I][/B]
Repeat the same command: IMPORTANT
Code:
[B][I]fastboot flash zip rom.zip[/I][/B]
NOTE: The green bar on the phone may not go to 100% of the bar ... but If you see completed on your computer command window, wait for a few seconds and move on.
Last Step:
Code:
[B][I]fastboot reboot[/I][/B]

then you are not using a ruu intended for your phone. You can either change RUU or change your CID/MID. Are you sure what you are attempting to flash is for your phone? Dangerous to flash random things with s-off. Better to post the output of "fastboot getvar all" (except imei/sn) and also post a link to the ruu you are trying to flash so we can determine if this file is safe for your phone and what you need to do to flash it..

When you downloaded the .tgz file and extracted it, it contained a .tar file. When you extract the .tar file you get the shamu-lrx21o folder. Within that folder you have the flash-all.bat, but you also have the image-shamu-lrx21o.zip file. Extract the contents of that zip file and try again. The system.img file is in that zip file.

I ran into this yesterday, do this:
Download the Android SDK: https://developer.android.com/sdk
Grab fastboot from the platforms-tools folder.
Flash System again
This will fix it, you just need the newest Fastboot.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
I'm also stuck.
I keep getting the error 'cannot load system.img'. Everything else flashes fine. The bootloader and the radio. I received the OTA and that didn't install either. I was left with the android guy on his back and it said error. I'm not sure if it has to do with the encryption on the phone or not but it's frustrating. I did root with CFauto root method but my recovery is still stock. I'll try the new fastboot and see what happens.
This might not apply in this situation, but coming from several years of previous Motorola phones, sometimes I had to download and use mfastboot (Motorola's version of fastboot) for large images to flash. It's worth a shot and won't hurt to try it
Edit: here is the link. If you decide to try it, make sure to read the first section on renaming the file http://mark.cdmaforums.com/ADB.htm
So I downloaded the stock from from the HTC site and for some reason it won't work when I try to recover it. The install works and all but when I go try an it starts to install, it says that I have the wrong RUU. Even though my phone is 2.27.651.6 and the ROM is 2.27.651.6, it says I have the wrong one. I don't understand it. Can someone help me out? I'm US.
The RUU's are a complete headache and won't work if your firmware has even started to lose it's factory fresh scent. Your best bet will be extracting the rom.zip from the RUU and proceeding from there. There's a lot of methods I've seen to go about extracting, but some of them make things difficult when they don't have to be.
Just start the RUU and let it do its longgggg startup and just leave it be when the actual program's interface is visible.
Now just open up Task Manager and find the process on the first page relating to the RUU.
Simply right-click and "open file location." Then, copy and paste all the goodies you want to a folder and directory of your choosing.
The rom.zip is all that is necessary, but I just used the whole folder as a my new default directory since it has everything you will ever need when working with your HTC.
This will reset everything to complete stock so backup anything important to you because it will be gone. Also, don't worry about un/locking your bootloader. It doesn't matter and just adds wasted time.
Plug your phone in to your PC and open the folder with all the RUU pieces, or at least a folder that has all the fastboot tools and the rom.zip.
Shift right-click in blank space and open a command prompt and enter-----
fastboot oem rebootRUU
wait for the reboot to the black RUU loader screen and then enter----
fastboot flash zip rom.zip
Let it do it's thing and you should be set.

RUU are encrypted files hence why you can extract them using winzip, winrar or anything similar. And you don't need to extract the file to use it, flash with fastboot in ruu mode. To check integrity of your RUU use the Winmd5 and compare the md5 value obtained with the md5 of your download source.

Again you CANT flash ruu using TWRP. It must be flashed using fastboot.
The error you are getting "invalid sparse file format" is because you are not using the right fastboot version. Latest RUU versions must be flashed using htc_fastboot.exe instead of the regular fastboot.exe. You can download it here. Just save it in the same folder where you already have your adb.exe, fastboot.exe and your ruu.zip
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
htc_fastboot flash zip <file_name.zip>
fastboot reboot

Appreciate your help
Hey there everyone! Seeing as there's not a publicly released 9.0.6 Fastboot only ROM for the T-Mobile variant users, I've taken the liberty to package something up for you!
This tool includes the most recent fastboot for Windows, Linux, and Mac.
Please do not unzip the images.zip file, as it will be done by the tool automatically!
This tool can be used to correct a soft brick (as long as you can get into fastboot you can fix it!), as well as simply flash the International Variant to both the T-Mobile version, as well as the International model.
You must be in fastboot mode prior to running these scripts!
On Windows:
Simply unzip the zip and double click the windows-flash-all-partitions.bat file.
Wait for the images.zip file to finish extracting. (This requires powershell, if you don't have it, unzip the images.zip file to the images directory)
You will be prompted with the option to format your device. Type Y or y for Yes, N or n for No.
Fastboot will begin flashing the partitions for you!
Your device will reboot at the end.
On Linux:
Simply unzip the zip and then cd to the directory with your console.
Ensure you have the unzip command available. If you don't, for some reason, unzip the images.zip file to the images directory.
cd to the unzipped folder and run the following command: sudo ./linux-flash-all-partitions.sh
You will be prompted with the option to format your device. You can type the following: Y,y for Yes, N,n for no.
Fastboot will begin flashing the partitions for you!
Your device will reboot at the end!
For Mac Users: (Console/Terminal Use)
Simply unzip the zip and then cd to the directory with your console.
Ensure you have the unzip command available. If you don't, for some reason, unzip the images.zip file to the images directory.
Run the following command: sudo ./mac-flash-all-partitions.sh
You will be prompted with the option to format your device. You can type the following: Y,y for Yes, N,n for no.
Fastboot will begin flashing the partitions for you!
Your device will reboot at the end!
Upgrading from 9.0.5 should not require a data wipe, but your mileage may vary.
This does not touch any critical partitions, nor does it even try to.
While this should work for the International version as well, it does not flash any critical partitions.

when updating from 9.0.5 to 9.0.6 do I need to do any prep work? Uninstall magisk first?
OR just do what's in the OP and choose not to wipe?

As long as you don't have any magisk modules that are known to bootloop when uninstalled (The Always on Display one will do this), you should be just fine! I was rooted with Magisk and upgraded to 9.0.6 without a wipe just fine.
Of course afterwards you will need to root again!

So can I follow this to flash 9.0.6 on my TMobile 9.0 version? I just received the unlock bin.

Yes. After you unlock your bootloader you can use this to flash 9.0.6 to your device. You will -need- to wipe, though. So when the question is prompted to format your device, type Y.
@DaeMon87 your instructions say if you do not have power shell, I am on windows 7, so extract the image to the working adb folder?
Some strange reason didnt work for me. im on 9.0.5 right now..

Windows 7 has powershell I believe. Try running the bat file. It's safe. It literally won't let you continue if the files don't exist.

Gimme 5. When I made a find/replace I accidentally deleted a part of each command! Sorry about that! I'll upload an updated bat here in a min for you.
Updated Tools attached to post.

Likely those files were not properly unzipped. Try extracting them directly from images.zip and putting them into the images directory.

How do I force the .bat file to load in powershell rather than cmd. I am on Windows 10 so I know I have powershell just not familiar with it. Second question, since I used the OnePlus one rooter before to install magisk can I use that again or do I have to do it the old fashioned way ? Thank you for putting this together by the way!
OP updated with a new copy of the files including the mac version and the fixes for the flashing files.

You don't need to! Just double click the .bat file. It simply runs the unzip command in powershell to avoid having to package anything else in the zip.
However, if you haven't grabbed the fixed bat file from the OP, please do so!
As for the OnePlus rooter, you can just use it again

Does the google drive link have the updated tools? Or should users also download the updated tools?
