[HOWTO][GUIDE] Rooting the M9+ (m9pw / htc_hiau_ml_tuhl)

How-to: root the HTC M9+ (tested on Chinese model)
This is a short step by step guide about rooting the device. So far tested on a chinese HTC M9+
A collection of stock partitionas, RUUs, and twrps: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...uu-m9-hiauml-ruu-recovery-collection-t3690966
DISCLAIMER, WARNING: If you use this guide, all responsibility is yours. The author is not responsible in any way if something goes haywire or any damage happening to the device
This was tested on a Chinese M9+. Please if you try, report back how it goes. Also be aware that currently there are some regions with firmware where we miss the stock recovery image for the different stock ROMs the different M9+ models come with in different countries, and the process contains steps that overwrite Stock recovery, and as of now, I can't provide you with your stock recovery for all possible carriers only a selected few ones and there's no way I know of to save it. (The fastboot boot recovery.img didn't work for me, since the new Download mode didn't allow me to just boot the custom recovery without flashing it. If you know a new way how to do that (boot recovery without flashing it), you can save your own Stock recovery that way, then don't forget to let us know how that can be done!!!) Some region's stock recovery if you want to revert to them: link. Also as soon as you mount ReadWrite the system partition OTA flashing will stop working. You need to back up the system partition in Read-Only mode, available in TWRP 2.8.7.0., and restore that untouched system backup to make OTA work again along with the stock recovery.
Hit the Thanks button if you like the work being done.
You will need
- for Windows:
-- HTC Sync installed (and fastboot.exe inside it's installation, look the fastboot.exe up there)
(-- Optional: Oracle Java JDK 7 + Android SDK platform tools installed (for fastboot.exe, HTC Sync contains fastboot.exe too))
- for Linux:
-- fastboot and working adb connection
- in general:
-- A third party (custom) recovery downloaded, like TWRP (you can get one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/one-m9-general/recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-english-m9pw-t3116099 ), to flash the SuperSU installer
-- SuperSU installer downloaded (e.g. https://download.chainfire.eu/1001/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.78-20160905010000.zip )
-- Phone and USB cable
Steps to root the device (starting with a locked device):
1. Unlock the Bootloader. You can do it online here: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader Select the 'All Other Supported Models'. Proceed as the HTC site directs you. Read everything carefully.
2. Go into Download mode (with an unlocked bootloader): with a device fully booted you can do so with Power off the phone and then long Power + Vol Down
3. Connect phone to PC with USB cable
4. Flash custom recovery with fastboot in command line:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_xy.img
output for a successful recovery flashing:
Code:
target reported max download size of 800000000 bytes
sending 'recovery' (13996 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.454s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) HOSD CL#534001
(bootloader) [email protected]
(bootloader) [email protected]%
(bootloader) Update partition OK
(bootloader) [email protected]
OKAY [ 1.272s]
finished. total time: 2.728s
4.1 After a successful flashing of recovery, you can create a full backup with the installed recovery if you wish, before rooting the device, check point 6th. how to go into recovery mode. There select Backup and do it. Then Reboot to normal mode and continue:
5. Boot the phone to normal mode, copy the SuperSU update flashable installer zip to device from your PC From fastboot Download mode to boot to normal mode: just navigate with volume buttons and select Reboot with pressing the Power button.
6. Go into recovery mode: Power off. Long press Power + Vol Down. In Download mode with volume buttons navigate to reboot to bootloader, press power. In bootloader navigate with volume buttons to BOOT TO RECOVERY MODE, press Power.
7. In booted Recovery, install SuperSU flashable zip with Install button: Select Install in the recovery, browse the SuperSU zip and flash it
Then reboot. The SuperSU app should be there amongst the accessible apps, and also now you can go super user in an adb shell (you'll need to enable USB Debugging in Developer options by going into Settings/About/Software information/More and pressing Build number 6+ times to get Developer Options, and then go into Developer options and enable USB Debugging):
Code:
c:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb shell
[email protected]_hiau_ml_tuhl:/ $ su
su
[email protected]_hiau_ml_tuhl:/ #
In general in Download mode and Bootloader mode, you can navigate with Volume Up/Down buttons and select an option with pressing the Power button.
Have a successful flashing, and be careful! And don't forget: We only have a selected few region's stock firmware's stock recovery images to replace the custom ones here on this forum, so only do this if you are okay with custom ROM development (that can be flashed from TWRP/custom recovery) or you can get your hands on a stock recovery for your model's appropriate official stock rom version otherwise official OTA updates might not work with TWRP.
Also as soon as you mount ReadWrite the system partition OTA flashing will stop working. You need to back up the system partition in Read-Only mode, available in TWRP 2.8.7.0., and restore that untouched system backup to make OTA work again along with the stock recovery.
You'll find a bunch of stock recoveries here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/one-m9-general/firmware-stock-recoveries-regions-t3120826

Which version are you on? I purchased M9+ today in India and I am currently on 1.08.707.4 with HTC sense 7.0.
I am asking this because I just received a notification for System Update 1.61.707.4 (382.5 MB) and was wondering if this method would still work if I take this update..

It should work. Nothing is depending on the version of firmware you've got with the update (as this isn't a method to s-off which generally depends on firmware and kernel version because of the exploit it may use.)
I'm confident that you will be able to do the official HTC unlock and then flash recovery and root zip to your phone after the update, that's how it usually is.

HTC one M9 Problem on restarting up
Dear friends and developer,
I had unlocked my htc m9 and I try to install the TWRP 2.7.0.2 but it keep gives me an error after that I press LK DDR TEST AND after that it's stuck on this AND just keep restarting on the same screen and I can't go back to the boot-loader.
any help plz ?
Thanks a lot
Please write me back to send you the images
This is when it restart
postimg.org/image/4nr273a8r
This is when it get stuck
postimg.org/image/86323hb4r

This is m9 plus forum, not m9. Do you have the plus? There's only 2.8.7.0 and 2.8.6.0 recovery for it, no 2.7.0.2

Yes,he has m9 plus "HTC_HIAU_ML".
First, maybe he flash the wrong custom recovery.
Second, he should't run "DDR TEST" mode. It will result in boot loop.
Try to press all 3 botton (volume up + down + power) for a period of time.
Maybe it will power down the device. Give it a go.

Yes I have HTC M9+

This I've not seen yet. Seems like boot to download and recovery mode is not in this menu, which is a serious issue, but very strange as you're s-on. What exactly you flashed as recovery 2.7.0.2 and how?
Reading that the normal ways don't work to get to download mode and it's also missing in bootloader mode too, I've no idea how you can then get to download mode, that way I don't know how you can flash back to ruu. If the download mode cannot load then it's near to brick, as far as my knowledge goes. Maybe someone with more knowledge about a-boot could help, or someone with special equipment to fix the phone. Sorry

Okay

In earlier time,there were one option "DDR TEST" on the bootloader menu, I ever saw this.
Someone in Taiwan tried to press this option and result in boot loop.
He must return the device to customer service/repair department finally to resume it.
Here is another case on China.

wow,that sounds very bad luck, and poor work by HTC :s

I have just go out from this screen,
Hello friends,
I have just go out from this screen,
the solution is connect the phone to the PC then press and hold the volume down & up together and then press and hold the power for 2 minutes it starts to flash you have to wait until you hear the sound of the first connect then you have to release the power but you have to continue pressing the volume down & up and wait for 20 seconds then press the power again and wait to hear the sound again.
after doing this 2 times then release all of your fingers. .... and wait to see the normal reboot to the HTC screen and it works again.
Thanks a lot GOD

(help) yotaphone 2 brick after update

I tried to android recovery mode (hold power and volume up),
it show that the error is "e:cannot load volume /misc!".
And I do not know how to solve that problem.
Please help me!

You can probably recover.
To reflash a full firmware image you could try the relatively user-friendly yotaflasher application and ROM images from here. I haven't used this myself, but it's software by Yota, so should be safe. You can ask it not to touch /data, to preserve apps, settings etc.
A less user friendly way to reflash a full firmware image:
- Download a full firmware image (EU 1.60 flashable version here, let me know if you require a different one)
- With the phone off, press vol down + power until you see "Downloading ...."
- If you can't turn the phone off normally, keep vol down + power for at least 15 seconds till phone reboots, keep holding till you end up with "Downloading ...."
- connect to a PC with adb+fastboot with a USB cable
- You can now boot TWRP image (fastboot boot recovery_twrp_yd201_alpha2.img , see here.
- if you have important files on your phone, you can back them up now by using adb shell/adb pull (e.g. adb pull /sdcard/Pictures/yeti_sighting.jpg)
- In TWRP go to advanced -> sideload and confirm
- now you can sideload a ROM image from the PC with adb sideload <image>.zip, it should show progress while it's uploading the firmware. If it errors, you probably haven't confirmed initiating sideload in previous step.
- wipe cache&dalvik and reboot

thank you, the first way worked and my phone runs normally now.
thank you

Help please

Root the phone using methods written on this forum > download build 1.60 flammable zip > flash that.
If all you want is Google apps then root the phone then download and flash a gapps package. The full Yota build zip is recommended though.

Can't download yotaflasher application from the link... does anybody have the exe file?

Just click on the YotaPhoneFlasher folder then click the file (yotaphone2_flasher.exe), and save to your harddisk.
Or you can try this link straight to the yotaphone2_flasher.exe file.

Dude I've just bought my phone, and it has the same problem. But I'm a complete noob, how did you fix it? Please, i've just bought it.

On RU build 134 when I tried to swap users my user with Defaut user, the phone blocked, the display is on (time is the same when first happend - just a freeze image) but I can't do nothing on phone. Is a way to reset? because on a normal way I would remove battery but yota dont have this option.

The analogue method of pulling out the battery is pressing the POWER button for at least 10 seconds. The phone will reboot.

Thanks, I pushed vol down + Power and the phone restarted normaly.

Sir, i can't even get into recovery mode, i get this problem like it suddenly happen and my battery was 38%.. i was on facebook and it hang and then reboot and then stuck at "POWERED BY ANDROID".
I try to get into recovery mode by pressing volume up + power button, it restart again to "POWERED BY ANDROID"
When i pressing volume down + power button, it show downloding... , and i try to flash it using yotaflasher with HK Firmware 5.0.
When it is done, the phone reboot.
And it still stuck at "POWERED BY ANDROID"
What is the real problem ?

Please help!!!
While trying to solve the network issue on my Yotaphone 2 I managed to brick my phone. He is dead! But since it is a Snapdragon inside it can be fixed.
I need a help from someone who has rooted his Yotaphone2!
I need files from Yotaphone2 software: rawprogram0.xml and patch0.xml
Please!!!

You need to keep pressing the power up button after the showing of "POWERED BY ANDROID", the power does not need to be pressed after then.
If you can still not reach recovery, you probably have a broken recovery (maybe wrong version) and something else is messed up.
When you flash recovery, you need to instantly go into recovery mode by pressing +/up on calling the according command
(fastboot reboot).
It does not look like you changed file system related things, did you change anything on your system/with root permissions?
Are you sure the installation process went without failure etc?
Getting out the cause (kernel logs etc) would be a bit hard without getting into recovery mode[and maybe also nonworking kernel], like stated out here

Zuk Z1 Soft Brick

Dear XDA friends,
i always hoped not to be one of those guys, who f****d up their phones to the point of no return. I really screwed up this time. Well, here I'am writing you about my screw up.
I unlocked, rooted, flashed and repaired all kinds of android phones in the past years, never without problems, but I could always fix it somehow. Not so much this time.
Now I'm stuck at Bootscreen with the Zuk logo. I even have problems pinging the phone via ADB.
Sorry for my noobish question guys. Any help would be much appreciated.

I got this translated from a chinese website:
For fastboot mode:
The phone turned off; keep the connection turned off the data cable to the computer, press: [volume down key] [Power Key] waiting to enter the fastboot mode.
For recovery:
Turn off the device
Press and hold Power key
When vibrates Volume UP key + Volume Down key about 10 seconds
Release all key when Android logo appear then you will see Android System Recovery
Use Volume key to select Menu
Use Power key to Confirm
Can you enter any of these 2 modes?

Does anyone know where can i find the scatter file , MTK ROM for zuk z1, i would like to try the SP flasher tool. Or if anyone have any idea how to solve this issue on lenovo zuk z1,pls. help.tnx

Can y get to fastboot ?

im facing the same problem after i had the stupid idea to lock the bootloader again, before that i flashed the phone successfully with the cm mod recovery and cm 13.
Has anyone found a solution to this ? or do i have to send it back ?
What i did exactly :
I locked the bootloader again and just to test it i tried flashing the recovery again , ofcourse it didn't work which was what i wanted.
Afterwards i rebootet the bootloader with sudo fastboot -i 0x2b4c reboot
now im stuck in a bootloop that i cant even stop , in other words i cant turn my phone off nor can i access the recovery or fastboot
Im feeling so stupid that i locked it again .... i will try to get into recovery after my phone ran out of battery but so far it looks quite bad...does anyone know if i will get a replacement even though it was my fault ?

Please help , same problem
I am facing same issue too from 2 days. I didnt even try to flash custom roms or play with boot loader or recovery or anything. All of a sudden my phone entered boot loop. After two three bootloops phone is entering "12 apps optimized of 230 apps" mode, completing optimizing all apps and then failing to start apps, entering boot loop again.
Effort made so far to fix -
1) Went to recovery and cleared cache - didnt work
2) Went to recovery and did factory reset - factory reset did happen but boot loop didnt stop, I realized that factory reset happened because now its saying optimizing 120 apps instead of my 230 apps during the bootloop.
3) Went to recovery, Entered fast boot mode but not able to connect to PC. Fastboot devices is not showing anything. I made sure proper driver is installed after researching on XDA.
4) Went to recovery, Tried "Install update". Didnt install anything but browsed through folder structure and realized my data is intact
It will be great if someone can help me atleast recover my data before I handover phone to service center for fixing boot loop issue.

Same problem

The link is not accessible now. Can you let me know what you have done. My phone is in a boot loop now and showing only Logo and 'powered by Android' message. It keeps turning on and off again and again.

Guys when u are in fast boot mode .. pls install Twrp ... After insatlling that press power button abd vibration comes hold volum doen+volume up button at the same time ..
Then u will be getting recovery Twrp mode .. then connect it to pc and u will see internal srorage in pc...now u have to copy any rom to the phone and install it via Twrp ... Thats all

Sorry For Re-posting Here. This is Solution
Why this is happening ?
Due to Dirty Flash from Zui or from COS/CMOD but suddenly Bootloader gets locked
May be Due to Some Custom Rom which only works with Old Bootloader ( And you are on latest 2.5 Zui QPST Flash)
Reasons are many. I also did same mistake. I flashed ZUI 2.5 using QPST then unlock bootloader using official site installed twrp after wiping cache system and data , Installed Lineage 0S JAN Build then without rebooting installed Lineage Nightly build (Latest) with Gapps After rebooting Phone goes into Restart endless loop on ZUK Logo. Blink and Vibrate .. After 1hr I figured it out but its 5am So slept.
HOW TO FIX ENDLESS REBOOT ON ZUK Logo ?
-> Identity vibrate patterns (Press Power Key I count 6- 7 Vibration pattern ) After long Vibrate immediately remove finger from power key.
->Once its Done (Phone completely off)
Download QPST and Official COS QPST from this Link https://goo.gl/InWQji OR https://goo.gl/iqrnlI (I am personally Very Thankful to D tech Terminal for posting Wonderful video on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Dl6JkAVpuM
<- please install all drivers and software.->) @ankurpandeyvns Thanks bro.
Main Task is here and Lots of Patience is required and You also need to be very Blazing fast to achieve this.
-Once you download and install Qpst open Qfil
-Now press Volume Up only and connect USB (Just press POWER KEY only for 1 sec It will vibrate and connect)
-Without waiting hit Download button.
-Voila It will start flashing your phone again and Hence Your phone is now Revive..
-Once Revive You can use it to again flash custom Rom or stick to stock Rom if you want.
Keep Flashing !!!
Patience is Key here. And Don't lose hope.
:good:
EDITED:
While connecting to pc and by pressing Volume key you also need to press Power key for 1 sec or 2 sec until it gets detected. Thanks addicted777 (for tip)

What's your build number what version of supersu did you try to flash?
Shutdown your device, put your current build onto 'dload' folder in the sdcard and press the following key combo: POWER, VOL-UP & VOL-DOWN, it should enable automatic update process

Shut it down amd press those 3 keys combo.. upon seeing Huawei Logo and vibration, release the Power key while holding the other 2... That ought to do it

Man, your phone is badly bricked. If you don't have at least access to fastboot, then you're screwed.

Good for me to I have the same problem. I was trying to get to stock ( I have made it several times), but the last time was a fail... The whole process of sending firmware was ok. then a reboot and brick.
Now the huawei screen and the short vibration appears and shutdown.
I was trying everything.
In device manager the phone is displayed as mobile devices \ volume f:\ (drive letter)
in connected devices the phone is detected as
hi6210sft
Phone is not detected in fastboot or ADB.

I met this problem yesterday(I hope the identical ). Because I have two booting animations, one from Vodafone, I guess I shutdown early during installation. It just froze. Then it didn't boot and stock recovery didn't help
My solution needs some recovery software like twrp. Press three buttons at the same time until twrp mode. Copy zip file for SuperSU to phone or sdcard, then flash it. After that my phone works again.
You mentioned that you cannot start recovery. Try more. After installing twrp, starting it is quite annoying. Sometimes it just doesn't start or stock recovery starts. An alternative way is to go to whatever mode, and try adb or fast boot to reboot to recovery. Pressing button requires techniques which j don't have

I can't enter TWRP non combination is working for me. Installing firmware using dload from sd card also.

okay if non of these worked you can try flashing the whole update.app file by fastboot..
tools you will need
1- download the official huawei firmware from the official site
2- download Huawei Update Extractor
3- download minimal adb and fastboot
check the unbricking chapter of this thread
Note: to get in fastboot make sure you connected your phone to computer and press the vol down and power down buttons.. if none of these worked your phone is hard bricked .-. .. try opening the phone and reconnecting the battery worked with someone
if you need any help just pm me or replay on this thread hope that help you

Ok thx. I have already opened the phone to reconnect the battery
And then I was trying the combinations;
Battery connected vol- +power - Huawei logo and vibration and shutdown, no fastboot
Battery disconnected, vol-+power and connecting cable to phone - the same
Battery disconnected combination vol + vol - + ppwer, with sd card dload, the same
Battery connected combination vol + vol - power, sd card dload, the same
Any other suggestions?
The phone is recognized in Windows in device manager as mobile device as volume with a letter, I cant change the drivers to the right ones. I can't enter the storage it's unrecognized format.

Any other suggestions?

it is easy to suggest others.. I too advised you.. but today i am facing the same problem...
what I tried:
Reinstalling the same ROM using dload method
Upgrading to other ROM (using both dload and flashing 4 image method)
Downgrading
Restoring from the backup
At one point, the phone booted up all well except the Wifi Module... So I flashed another ROM and stuck again...

the worst thing that I don't have any connection to fastboot Each firmware installation method fails

yes, mine too... or I could say flashing succeeds but there's some problem with the boot partition... will get my phone today from the Customer Care and try again (if they can't repair).
you can try removing the back cover and unplugging the battery... that is one of the few things I will do today as I get my phone back..

ok made it back.. just flashed the boot.img from b594 (the one I was using when my mobile got bricked)... somehow made it back. But now I am having a problem with the battery. It doesn't charge when the device is switched on, only when the device is switched off... will see for few days, if there's problem will take it back to service centre again

I have already removed back cover and was trying to reconnect the battery to do clear run. But the only thing is discovered in windows is a driver for storage and I can't change the driver to ADB or FASTBOOT
Now I have connected phone w PC on adb devices I see only emulator-5554 device. In Device manager I see the storage as a Mobile Device.
Nope it was Bluestacks

Switch off your device and then connect it to PC but just hold the volume- key.. that should get you in fastboot mode... I did that and then flashed the boot.img of the current ROM. This should boot it up...

Nope it doesn't work I was trying it already

p9 stuck in "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" help!!!!!

Im sorry if i type bad but im so frustrated and sad right now.
I downloaded "SRKToolHuawei-STABLE-V1.3-20160619"
My phone was already unlocked so i relocked it again.
that went well
But then i unlocked it again and now its stuck on your device is booting now...
So i restarted it many times now and nothing is happening.
I cant fastboot cause it says my phone couldn't be found.
I need help! i just got this phone and im so stressed right now. Any help will be appreciated! Thank you!
Edit:
Just to make it clear. I was trying to install TWRP.
Im new to this and everything was so messy.
I flashed it a bunch of times but it didn't install so i relocked it and unlocked it and this happend.
currently im waiting for it to drain and ill see what happens

Hello. Long press POWER to reboot and then release and quickly long press both VOL+ and VOL- simultaneously. It should appear an update screen with a failed message and –the most important thing– a restart button at the bottom. Press it.
Now the phone should start Android normally...

I think i know what i did wrong.
it was a old version of twrp i think. so it couldn't boot into it. so i had wait for it to drain and then boot it up again. I got trwp working now!

Hi! I have the same problem. The phone was drained but when i charge It again It tries to start normally, but then starts trying ti enter into recovery again.
so who did you solve It exactly?
what buttons did you pushed when the phone starts again?
Thani you

For anyone pretty much, who has ****ed up his Huawei P9:
I got to the state where I could only enter Fastboot mode (Press vol- and connect power cable). When I tried to start the phone / go into recovery it would only display the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" Message. My mistake was to relock the bootloader in an attempt to get the recovery to work.
I looked for hours for the answer, here is what worked for me:
follow this tutorial (the "update firmware" part)
German
English
But with real precision, every step.
If you have a european unbranded L09 you should be fine using the firmware you can find on this site:
https://thedroidguru.com/download-install-huawei-p9-b394-nougat-update-europe/
if not you gotta find the full firmware (3 files!!) yourself - good luck!
If you only want to go back to stock you should be fine afterwards.
If you want to install twrp for root/custom rom/... follow these steps after installing twrp with the tool:
Upon flashing TWRP, FIRST THING YOU MUST DO is rebooting to TWRP. If you don't do that, stock Recovery will ovewrite TWRP.
Find instructions in the TWRP threads how to enforce immediate booting to TWRP, upon you flashed it:
-Type on the PC: fastboot reboot -but don't press Enter yet.
-Press and keep pressing Vol+ and Power buttons together on the phone
-Press Enter on the PC and then immediately unplug USB cabel.
-When phone shows Booting, release Power but keep pressing Vol+. button
Hope this helps, I don't take responsability for anything, happy flashing!
