Can't install Sense Update due to TWRP

Hello everyone! I bought some months ago a HTC One m7 and up till yesterday I had no problem with it. It is rooted mainly for backup and utility reasons so as you can understand it still runs on it's factory ROM 4.4.3 with HTC sense 6.09.401.10.
Yesterday I got a notification for Sense update to version 6.09.401.11 saying that it fixes some bugs and enhances the in-call experience so I downloaded it. After 3 min that the download was done, I tried to install it. Phone began the reboot process and it restarted into recovery. Then this showed up in the log:
Code:
Updating partition details...
Processing AOSP recovery commands...
E:Storage partition '/external_sd/TWRP/BACKUPS/
Unable to locate zip file '/external_sd/=CxDyCw
E:Error installing zip file '/external_sd/=CxDy
Done processing script file
And nothing happens. The phone just stays in TWRP until I manually reboot from the menu to the system. I can't find the update file anywhere to install it via the "Install" button so I don't know how to do it manually. I have TWRP version 2.6.3.0 and I've been trying all morning to access the "teamw.in" website in order to download a latter one but there seems to be some kind of problem that gives me a timeout.
Please if anyone has any idea on what I should do I would appreciate any kind of feedback. Thanks in advance.

Hello!!!
Custom recovery is only for flashing custom ROMS...........
FYI if you want to install update then change the recovery to stock and follow the update procedure......
research before asking these kind of silly questions and don't create threads unnecessarily.

It reboots to recovery on its own. It's not like I get to chose. All the previous Sense updates were installed normally after I was pressing the "Install now" button but this one goes into recovery and stops there. There are no posts regarding version 6.09.401.11 since it came out yesterday and that's why I posted.

Hello. If you've installed TWRP, your stock recovery is overwritten by it. Hence to install OTA updates, you must reflash your stock recovery. Twrp CANNOT install OTA updates.

Thread closed. This has been covered hundreds of times. IF you want to use the OTA updates you have to be stock.

[Solve]Recovery Problem while installing 5.1.1

It happens because you need a lolipop stock recovery to install the new styled OTA.
The solve is just use this recovery. Flash it via flashify(APP) or sp flash tool from your pc ! THen try to install the 5.1.1 OTA from the link below. Recovery link also given below
OTA :-
https://android.googleapis.com/pack...ed-sprout-mmx-LMY47V-from-LMY47O.906842e8.zip
Recovery :-
https://docs.google.com/uc?authuser=0&id=0BySRffw4ufYxaGh1LXhPTHlpdEk&export=download

unable to flash 5.1.1 ota
Neither downloading the ota nor flashing is working here.
Earlier after rooting I had removed the preinstalled apps and the korean keyboard app.
and since that time I have been getting the OTA update for 5.1.1, but unfortunately there is error message displayed always as follows:
"/system/app/koreanIME/Korean.apk
hs unexpected contents.
Error in cache/update .zip
status 7
Installation failed "
Did downloading from playstore and moving back the app to the system app folder, but still the error perists and doesn't go ahead.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated

No Marshmallow update even on pure stock

i've got the x510 with 2gb of ram version. it came with the latest October update presintalled build 20151012. till now checking for update doesn't reflect the Marshmallow update.
recovery is not working (even by adb it goes to an android pic with no text or No Command available)
tried flashing recovery, no luck, reflashed all the available stock roms on the forum with no luck neither, no recovery and no marshmallow update
all flashing was done through SP Flash, with format or download only, no difference. stock original cable was used, vcom drivers present and SP tool read the phone perfectly.
X510-D5110-Androidone-20150824, X510-D5110-Androidone-20151012, X510-A1-FIX-20150824.
i even tried flashing twrp and pushing the Marshmallow update through it which never succeeded
any idea ? hint ? help item that i can do ?

You must be in 2015 December 5.1.1 update to Install Marshmallow. 20150824 or 20151012 will NOT support directly install MM.
So update to 2015 December update. If you cant find through OTA, just manually download the OTA from forum (search somewhere).
to access recovery : go to adb and reboot to recovery. U will see the Android Logo without any text. Here press the Power and Volume+ button for 5 seconds and leave the keys. u will see the recovery menu.

Update failed.

Was he updating via OTA? was the device's bootloader unlocked? Assuming it wasn't and that he had no recovery installed.
Anyways, Try this:
- Turn off phone
- Press & Hold 'Volume Down' + 'Power' to get to bootloader screen.
- Once on it, Press 'Volume Down' ONCE to select Recovery.
- and then press 'Volume Up' to enter stock recovery
- wait for the dead android guy (this is stock recovery).
- Now Press 'Volume Up' + ' Power' multiple times, until it takes you to a recovery with options.
- Now Wipe Partition Cache, and then do a Factory Wipe.
This should get the phone booting.
Nevertheless,
Here's the link to the Android 6.0 Official firmware (since you said it failed while updating):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/general/official-firmware-titan-xt1068-t3312933
PS: Trying to downgrade to lollipop after marshmallow upgrade has bricked devices because of old bootloader being flashed which leads to partition corruption. ergo - BRICKED DEVICE.
Incase you wish to downgrade to Lollipop 5.0.2, you'll find links to other thread with the guide & ROM download links here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/help/help-downgrading-to-lollipop-t3315220
Hope this helped! :fingers-crossed::good:

Since it failed during update i don't know whether its on lollipop boot loader or marshmallow. But to be on safe side i will install 6.0 because it will upgrade bootloader.
Thanks for reply i will post later when i get phone.

Hello, I'm having a similar issue as well. I just unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone via this method of temporary custom recovery. If I understand correctly, I still have stock recovery. My phone got wiped in the process but once it booted back up, I noticed the new system update. However when I try to install it, it keeps failing. I keep getting an error message that says something similar to "Update unsuccssful : The system update could not be installed for some reason. No changes were made". Would I be able to install the OTA update manually if I were to download the Android 6.0 Official firmware you've linked in the post? By copying it to my SD card > booting into stock recovery > install from sdcard? Also, would greatly appreciate it if you have any suggestions about other ROMs if you think they're better than this official one.
Relevant details:
Android version: 5.0.2
System version: 22.56.3.titan_retaildsds.retaildsdsall.en.03.retin
Edit: Oh never mind, the above method didn't work. Got this instead.
Code:
E: footer is wrong
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted.

I haven't got to testing the stock MM ROM as of yet, So I wouldn't compare it with other ROMs, however there are quite a few 6.0 based ROMs in the android development section, and ofcourse CM13 in the original android development section . You can have a look at those.
As for the error, it's because the link I gave is not for any OTA zip, it has the system files which are fastboot flashable, use the auto restore script available in the thread to install 6.0 on your device(since it has been wiped recently, I'm guessing you aren't gonna lose any data).
Also, Once upgraded to 6.x, DO NOT downgrade to 5.x without reading proper instructions. The FAQ and General thread is full of posts with people bricking their devices. Read instruction if downgrading!
I hope this helped! Happy flashing! :fingers-crossed:

Yeah, I figured it out. Seems that I wasn't able to get the OTA update working because of root, which was contrary to what the guys in the above thread had me believe. I took a look at some of the ROMs but wasn't feeling confident about any of them, so have decided to stick with 6.x stock until a stable version appeals to me. And yeah, I read that the bootloader version is upgraded in 6.x which seems to be causing the hard bricks. Thanks for the assist btw, cheers!

T-Mobile HTC One M9 Not Receiving Nougat OTA. Unable to flash Nougat RUU as well

Folks,
I recently purchased a preowned HTC One M9 in good shape. The phone does not appear to have been rooted, s-offed or any such thing. It looks bone stock. It currently has Android 6.0 on it. and software number 3.39.531.41
It has been over a month since t-mobile has rolled out the nougat update for the HTC One-M9 and I have not received any update on the phone. I constantly keep checking if the phone has an update available but the phone always says no update available. I gave up on the OTA being rolled out for the phone so I downloaded the Nougat RUU which is 4.27.531.6 .
When I follow the procedure for installing the update I got a signature error 132 . Now I know that error shows up when the phone is rooted or is s-off or any such thing but my phone seems to be completely stock. Does anyone know why I cant install the RUU or receive OTA updates to Nougat for my phone?

I think I figured it out. I contacted T-Mobile support who told me to contact HTC since the HTC servers are responsible for pushing out updates. So I contacted HTC customer support and shared my IMEI with the representative. She looked up some information on the HTC database using the IMEI number and told me that my phone was a store demo phone and that demo phones are blocked from receiving updates from the HTC servers. Oh well.

Hello,
Just got the same phone with same error. If someone provides me with 0PJAIMG.ZIP, I can test and see how it goes. So far update from phone >> didn't work; RUU update >> didn't work. same error
Thanks

I had the same problem some time a go what you have to do is to check if its relock and has stock recovery. If yes first flash 3.39.531.41 RUU before you can flash the 4.27.531.6 or the OTA. But my receives the OTA alright but could neither install that or RUU

Hi,
Thanks for the info. However, I couldn't get into the recovery mode. Either from bootloader -> "Boot to recovery mode" or via command "adb reboot recovery", after the phone reboots, the screen will show a phone icon with triangle. Then after awhile the phone will restart normally. I can't get to step to do sideload the zip file.
I also put the above ota.zip on a micro SD card and load the card in the phone, then boot to download mode. In that mode, it shows the following 2 lines:
FILE /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/0PJAIMG.zip
File NOT FOUND
Where do I find that missing file?
Thanks

I think your recovery file is damaged. Thou i am novice in this but i think you should run RUU of existing rom it may repair your recovery then try this method.

OK,
I found the 0PJAIMG.zip for version 3.39.531.7 in this forum "https://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-one-m9/general/please-read-rooting-using-twrp-t3069022"
I put that on my SD card and was able to update the phone from Lollipop to Marshmallow.
However, after that update, the phone still won't update from Marshmallow to Nougat using the file RUU_HIMA_UL_N70_SENSE80_TMUS_MR_TMOUS_4.27.531.6 downloaded from htc website nor the OTA.zip downloaded from this thread. The phone keeps having the same Error [132] Signature Error. Or it won't go into the Recovery mode to do sideload of the OTA.zip. If the original Recovery file (from Lollipop) was bad/corrupt, wouldn't the Marshmallow update correct/fix that file?
So, do we have any other idea to upgrade the phone from Android 6.0 to 7.0? Does anyone have a 0PJAIMG.zip for 7.0?
Thanks

In order to OTA to work which is in this forum you have to be in 3.39.531.41 first find RUU of this version run it then go for OTA.
Noted that you wont be able to update from marshmallow to nougat using RUU you have to use OTA but for that you must be in version 3.39.531.41 .

Ok. I was able to install 3.39.531.41. I will try the OTA now

I updated to version 3.39.531.41 but I am still unable to get to Recovery mode on my phone. It keeps showing the red triangle with exclamation mark.
So, is that correct that I am now having two choices (besides obviously stay with Marshmallow)
1. Need to somehow fix the recovery mode on the phone? It is a demo unit so I don't know if that has anything with the recovery not working
2. Try to download the 0PJAIMG for 4.27 (Nougat) and install from sd card. I did find the file from AndroidFileHost website, but the phone gave error when it tried to load the zip file from download mode:
12 RU_ZIP_ERROR
FAIL 12 RU_ZIP_ERROR
Do you have a reliable source for the OPJAIMG file for Nougat?
I did a research on the 12 RU_ZIP_ERROR and found an instruction for AT&T from developer Blueberry who suggested "If you're on Marshmallow base, first of all you need to upgrade your firmware and then flash this 0PJAIMG zip file via download mode in otherwise you'll be getting "12 RU_ZIP ERROR" during the flash process. No Wipe Firmware Link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120692233"
The above was for AT&T but I found the no_wipe zip for TMobile, however, I don't know how to upgrade the firmware on my phone using one of these files
the firmware no_wipe files are here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=134381
The file I downloaded is "firmware_tmous_4.27.531.6_NoWipe.zip", but like I said above, I don't know how to update the firmware.... Can someone give me some directions?
Update: I renamed the file "firmware_tmous_4.27.531.6_NoWipe.zip" to "0PJAIMG.zip" and tried to update from download mode, but the phone gave error: 8 RU_SIGNATURE_FAIL.
Another research indicated that since the phone is S-ON and Locked, these firmware wouldn't install because they were not signed. Where can I find signed firmware for this phone?
Thanks

I don't know much now but we can try RUU of 3.39.531.41. It should solve your recovery. But the question is where you can download that?? Try finding a link mean while i am uploading it to my google drive then i will share link. Since i am in third world country it will take time. I will update you as soon as it is uploaded

1. Need to somehow fix the recovery mode on the phone? It is a demo unit so I don't know if that has anything with the recovery not working
Thanks

To continue on to recovery mode, try this:
" If a device with a red triangle and exclamation point appears, Hold Power while pressing and releasing Volume Up to continue."
As for the 3.39.531.41 RUU, put the zip from this link into your external SD then boot into fastboot/download mode. From that point on the phone should automatically recognize the .zip and install from there.

Thank you much! I will try everything you suggested now. I really appreciate your help!

I downloaded the RUU from above link [https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24438995911969398], but after installing, the phone went from 3.39.531.41 back to 3.39.531.7. Was the above zip file really the 531.41 version?
I tried to reinstall the 0PJAIMG for 531.41 downloaded earlier, but the phone said signature error.
I tried to install using the OTA zip from this link [http://fotadl-az.htc.com/secure/OTA_...kwvabkx6lv.zip] from Recovery mode but the phone said "E3001: Package expects build fingerprint of htc/himaul_tmous/htc_himaul:6.0/MRA58K/690290.41:user/release-keys or htc/himaul_tmous/htc_himaul:7.0/NRD90M/869604.6:user/release-keys; this device has htc/himaul_tmous/htc_himaul:6.0/MRA58K/690290.7:user/relea
E:Error in /sideload/package.zip (Status 7)
Installation aborted
You have any idea to go back to 531.41? Since the OTA message seemed to indicate it expected a 531.41 version?
Thanks

Ok. I was able to get back to 3.39.531.41 by getting the 0PJAIMG from AndroidFileHost.
After that, I went to Recovery Mode (using pwr + vol up after seeing the red triangle), chose Apply Update from SDCard, selected the OTA file for 4.27.531.6. This time It didn't give any error, at the end it appeared to get stuck for a long time at the line Script Succeeded Result was [/preload]. After about an hour, I turned off the phone and on again, now it is stuck at HTC logo splash screen.
Questions here:
1. Was the phone really stuck at the "script succeeded" line?
2. Didn't I wait long enough?
3. What should I have done at that time when it stopped at that "script succeeded" line?
4. What should I do at this splash screen? It has been like that for the last 10 minutes
Thanks
