Hi guys I kinda stuck here.
I tried to Unlock and flash my HTC Desire HD but I think something went really wrong.
Here's my actual status:
I unlocked my Bootloader using HTCDev to flash the 4EXT Recovery
After unlocking in I tried the Ace Advanced Hack Kit (also with a re-locked Bootloader as suggested on the webpage) but it never worked
for some reasons all the PD98IMG.zip seem not to be applied on my device, they get parsed by the HBOOT but I never get a "Install?" question
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0029
RADIO-26.14.04.28_M
4EXT Recovery is installed and I can access it
I think I have no ROM installed, atleast I can't access the system
I tried to instal several ROMs (like Sabsa Prime, Nik Project X and Android Revolution HD)
I also tried to "flash back" a original RUU using fastboot mode (booted in fastboot, started RUU.exe), the process starts but it aborts at ~20%
I also tried the fullwipe scripts (as I learned that most of the roms expect a 4ext system)
I'm really out of ideas how to get back on ANY rom.
maybe u can refer to this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30020025&postcount=7
edit: ur phone is S-ON so must flash boot.img on fastboot...use the guide that i provided
I guess you're pointing to the
"Flashing a custom Rom with HTCDEV" part in the guide?
OK man. You helped me out, it worked. Thanks!
no problem...hope it helps and dont forget to thanks the author of the guide...

Step by step walkthrough?
Hi, I rooted my phone recently and I'm using twrp. I got this system update but I'm not able to install it. Could you please provide step by step walkthrough for this? I want to be able to install the update but at the same time, don't wish to unroot my phone, and if that's not possible, go back to stock, install the update, then root again. But I don't want to lose all the settings and data as well, so if I make a back up, go stock, update, then root and restore, would it work?
can the stock firmware of the same version earlier installed can be reinstalled with s-on , because i cannot get s-off even after multiple tries .

install stock recovery again but your system files should be unmodified
After that try ota
But when you apply ota successfully you will loose root and you have to re flash root files again

there are HTC One rooting tool contains cid changer
You don't need change firmware as I assume your phone is S Off
But if MID is changed you have to restore it back

after Rom reset you have to flash firmware & there is also new update available now
What:
the firmware.zip from hTC desire 816 dual sim A5_DUG CID:HTC__J15,HTC__001,HTC__A07 MID:0P9C70000 OTA update for Europe. (to check for your Device IDs, go to fastboot mode and type "fastboot getvar all")
Why:
users who update from Kitkat to Lollipop using TWRP/CWM backups instead of OTA, run into Wifi or touch problems because TWRP/CWM backups don't contain firmware updates. so by flashing this firmware, they can fix those issues. notice that your current ROM has to be 1.58.401.11 or 2.34.401.1. If you come from any other ROM, this file might not work properly or behave unexpectedly. of course you can try it at your own risk.
Where:
you can find the firmware.zip here (this naturally contains the stock 5.0.2. recovery, so if you need, you can extract it and get the stock recovery). you can also find proper OTA/TWRP/CWM Backups here.
How:
0- download firmware.zip and put it on the same folder as your platform tools (Adb/Fastboot) folder. a good source to get the minimal tools would be here.
1- Reboot your device to bootloader and choose fastboot (use power+volume down combination , or type "adb reboot bootloader" in console)
2- if you're S-On, you'll need to relock your bootloader. to do that, when in Fastboot, type "Fastboot oem lock". if you're S-off, you can skip the relocking part.
3- type "fastboot oem rebootRUU" to put the phone in firmware update mode. you'll see a silver hTC logo in the center of a black screen
4- type "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" in console and press enter. (*this will also write 5.0.2. stock recovery so you'll lose your custom recovery)
5- type the same "fastboot flash zip firmware.zip" in console again.
6- type "fastboot reboot-bootloader" to reboot.
7-now, in order to have root and install custom recovery(TWRP/CWM) for restoring a Lollipop backup, you'll have to unlock bootloader again. you can try putting your old Unlock_code.bin in platformTools folder and typing "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin". If that doesn't work, you'll have to go through the process of requesting a new Unlocktoken from htcDEV, which there are various guides for, around XDA.
8- Install TWRP again.
9- Now you can put your TWRP Lollipop backup on phone storage and restore it.
10- If all you need is to just install Stock recovery, download the firmware.zip and extract it. put the recovery.img file in your fastboot folder. then in fastboot mode, type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. be warned that after this, you will lose your custom recovery and will not be able to use twrp/cwm to backup/restore/flash files.
Who:
This is a continuation of the work done by our good user, 12rithy. you can find necessary firmware for A5_DWG and for S-OFF devices in that thread..
also, the firmware was extracted from OTA uploaded by another good user, crash6x86. If you need the OTA or TWRP/CWM backups of it, you can find them at its thread here.

I'm afraid that's not possible for me. Also, if you find the instructions too confusing or complex, I advise against tempering with your device because you may run into problems at any stage and it would require a degree of skill and persistence to overcome. It probably won't be worth the effort unless your main motive is to gain experience.
Still, If you've done this before (unlocked and rooted your device, worked with custom recoveries and custom Roms) and if your device is the Europe Dual sim a5_dug, I'll try to help if any part is unclear or if you run into any problems in the process.
There is an easier, quicker way of flashing the firmware, but you must have an sdcard. I'll post later a how to after work.

yeah i know how to root and install Custom Recovery and ROM but i dont understand how to flash this firmware
Thanks mate . it worked for me, thank you for your effort
Rename the firmware to 0P9CIMG.zip.
Then boot to bootloader.
Follow the on screen directions to update.
I made sure to have a stock recovery, I haven't tried flashing firmware with a custom recovery. I do know that my M8 can flash the firmware with a custom recovery.
After everything updates, remove the firmware update from the sd card.
If anyone has any questions, I'll try to answer them.

So if you boot to bootloader, it will automatically recognize the file and start updating firmware?
about the second point, you can flash firmware while having a custom recovery but after flashing the firmware you will lose the custom recovery because the firmware includes a stock recovery which will replace your custom one.
The biggest inconvenience here is, that you have to relock your bootloader before flashing firmware, because it won't accept firmware on an unlocked bootloader.

I remember you saying somewhere that you have a Chinese unicom device. if it's S-on, then this file won't work for you. If it's S-off and you have SuperCID, then you can use it. doing it is as easy as following the steps. if any step is unclear, let me know and I'll explain it.

That explains it. no need for relocking bootloader when you're S-OFF because that's basically a security precaution by hTC. I miss the old days with my S-off hTC One XL. I flashed so many files from different sources that it lead to a Hard-Brick

Sorry, I meant this file won't work for you. If your problems are firmware oriented, you'll just have to find the right firmware for your variant (or the right OTA) and flash it using this method. files for the chinese variant are not hard to come by if you look for them over the net.

you should look for A5_ul OTA (not the CWM/TWRP backup). you can also use the RUU from this thread if your variant matches; it will fix the wifi problem
after following your way i will able to update lollipop in my phone but now there is a problem when i clicked to download something it show's (no sd card ).But i already have a SD card .

you can find a nandroid backup for your device, which is much easier than s-off.
for s-off you'll have to pay 25$ and use sunshine. you can also take your phone to hTC care..

1-did you relock your bootloader before flashing firmware?
2-is your device exactly the same as models I mentioned in the first post?
Trying to allow my OTA update to shine through but it freaks out while rebooting into TWRP. I found this stock recovery: recovery_verified.img__Europe_1.61.401.6. Will this work on a US M9+?
I already unrooted and am trying to restore back to factory as much as possible since I'm getting the OTA update nags.
Thanks!!
you should flash last stock recovery that match to your current software number....
after flash recovery relock bootloader and use (htc_fastboot.exe) to flash RUU
